Cori Bush protesting the eviction moratorium is a terrible look

[invincible1914]

I think she’s clout chasing and need to stop always mean mugging, but since I support black women. And I know it’s gotta be tough on her in Missouri. I’m going to give her some rope and let this one slide

This is not Black Girl Magic aka Queen shyt.
This is sad.

Performative Theater. Every Single person in Congress knew the moratorium was coming up and did nothing. All of a sudden on the 23 hour, you want to act like it is the most important thing in the world. No you all dropped the ball.

If I am about to go on vacation at my job, good luck reaching out to me for help on some last minute project as I am heading home to pack.

exactly

Biden and crew been in office 7 months

it’s like these idiots can’t multi task and can only focus on COVID

in April the government should have been working on this, but just like this country we wait till shyt happened to react

Her team sucks
The thought is, I'm just like one of you, and I'm fighting for YOU!

But the ppl who voted for her are thinking, we don't want you outside with us
We voted for you to give you the keys to get inside and actually do shyt

I seen ppl on Twitter defending ppl from calling her frauds

And thats the problem
Regular ppl just want shyt done

She'd had been better off just giving a statement or throwing Pelosi under the bus

So people didn't learn from Obama even after he gave yall the game? You can't get shyt done without the people bringing energy and making politicians think not moving is a threat to their seat. Unless you have a lot of money of course.

I'm not upset her attempting to stir up energy among the people. No she doesn't have any real power

The Squad and Progressives talk all that on social media and to the press, but cave in and fold when it's actually time to follow on their word. Some of them cats literally went onto Twitter to complain that they didn't have time to read one of those pandemic bills before having to vote on it, yet still voted yes for it anyways

So stop pretending like they do then, when they're at the mercy of Pelosi and whatever she says. Their clout chasing does nothing when they're too scared nor have the power to do after the power players in their own party.

Cot damn, mufukkas in here acting like it's Cori's fault Congress is trash. Let her live on this

She gets those same benefits and perks as her other Congress members, so it's a disingenuous point. Give her some time along with tenure and she'll be eating financially good just like those other power players in her party as well.

Coli capitalist checking in.

I’m glad the eviction moratorium got lifted. It was blocking a state contract I won.

I feel for the kids in these situations who don’t have any control over their parents spending/work habits.

 

[I Really Mean It]

She’s protesting the recess.

People go in wide eyed "Yes we can!" to "Legally we can't".
As funny and fukked up as it is,I can't really fault these people. Running for office requires a bit of an ego,and many seem to go in thinking they are the chosen one whos about to turn politics on its head. Only to end up sheep and apart the status quo.
She ain't the only black person that needs to wake the hell up and stop participating in this nonsense.

This is partially inaccurate. The executive branch had the initial burden in their hand to extend the moratorium, but waited until the last minute to toss the ball to Congress.

Cori Bush couldn’t rally the entirety of Congress to pass a bill, and making a push for *something* is better than pretending like it isn’t happening at all.

Maybe, maybe not. Either way, Congress's failures aren't hers.
