It was definitely racist but it doesn’t count because a Black person isn’t allowed to be conservative.  That in itself is a racist position.

So then, it's a double dose of racism against a black... regardless of political party.

Remember, the Democrats always scream racist for things that weren't even about race just because the Democrat was black.

Yet one more liberal double standard.

FWIW

Joe Manchin Indicates Possibly Leaving Democrat Party Before 2024

JACOB BLISS
2 May 2023

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) sparked speculation that he may leave the Democrat party ahead of 2024, amid his latest comments about having a close relationship with “No Labels.”
 
The Democrat senator touted his relationship with No Labels, the political group that has been trying to allow all 50 states to vote on a third-party candidate in the presidential elections, and the possibility of a nationwide run.
 
“I’ve been part of No Labels since December of 2010. It’s the only game in town that wants to bring people together and get Democrats and Republicans working together,” Manchin told the Hill.
 
Asked if he could run nationwide on the No Labels ticket, Manchin claimed, “People are starving, starving to work together.” He added that voters are sick of “this constant, daily routine of everyone’s against everybody and everybody’s fighting and arguing…Let’s be for the country and get something done.”
 
Manchin, a moderate senator up for reelection in a deep red state, has been keeping his plans for the 2024 election close to the belt for some time. Ultimately this has led to speculation about if he will run for reelection in the U.S. Senate, make a presidential bid, or if he will run as a Democrat at all.
 
Despite leaving people guessing, the West Virginia Senate race is already heating up with Gov. Jim Justice (R-WV) joining the race last week and Rep. Alex Mooney (R-WV), on the Republican side, in the battle to unseat Manchin.
 
Manchin released a statement shortly after Justice’s announcement claiming he is “laser-focused on doing the job West Virginians elected me to do” and “will win any race” he enters.
 
Last month, Manchin told NBC’s Meet the Press that he would not make his decisions “until the end of the year” since his filing deadline is not until the middle of January next year. However, the last time he ran for reelection, he did not announce his decision to run again until January 23, 2018 — four weeks into the election year.

If a candidate isn’t a Republican they aren’t likely to win WV now.

Remember all the Democrat cities that implemented all the strict lockdowns, the closure of restaurants, the forcing of vaccines... and get fired if you don't?

Well, this looks like perhaps the start of payback time!!!

Judge Rules Chicago Employees Fired For Not Getting Vax Must Be Reinstated, Repaid For Lost Wages And Benefits

Chicago residents just got a win against tyranny.
 
Administrative Law Judge Anna Hamburg-Gal ruled that the City of Chicago violated the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act after imposing the vaccine mandate without negotiating with unions representing the workers.
 
The Judge said that the city did not bargain in good faith.
 
The fired workers must now be reinstated and repaid any lost pay and benefits, plus 7% annual interest.

The Chicago Sun Times reported:
 
Unionized city of Chicago employees fired or disciplined for violating COVID-19 vaccination requirements must be reinstated and repaid for any loss of wages or benefits, a state hearing officer has ruled.
 
The decision in a case before the Illinois Labor Relations Board applies to city workers represented by trade unions or by the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees. The unions banded together to challenge regulations Mayor Lori Lightfoot imposed starting in 2021.
 
Administrative Law Judge Anna Hamburg-Gal said the city violated the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act by not bargaining in good faith over vaccine requirements and changes in sick leave policies. Her ruling, issued Wednesday, requires the city to “make whole” workers who lost pay and benefits, plus 7% annual interest.
 
The ruling is a broad rebuke of Lightfoot’s get-tough policies on city workers who resisted vaccination mandates, but it’s not known how many employees were penalized. One source said a few dozen employees may be directly affected by the decision.
 
The American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees celebrated the ruling saying, “We think it’s a strong decision and favorable for worker rights generally.”
 
The Epoch Times reported:
 
A spokesperson for AFSCME told news outlets: “We think it’s a strong decision and favorable for worker rights generally.”
 
A spokesperson for the mayor’s office said the ruling “was an erroneous decision that does not follow the law, facts nor importantly the science” and that the city was considering its next steps.
 
Hopefully, more vaccine mandates are stopped in court!

At least they get paid (with 7% interest)...

And hopefully, this will start similar other suits as well.

It was only the Democrat run cities and states that clamped down using draconian and tyrannical rules.

Most of the red states weathered it fairly well... my state of Florida just to name one.

Yes, if they get back pay with interest in a lump sum, they come out ahead, as long as they can prorate the taxes by year and not have to pay a higher amount because the money all came in at one time.
