  2. That colored person sure got angry about being called a colored person.

  3. We are all "Colored" people..if not we would be Transparent. But this congress man uses the verbiage in a racist manner😡

  7. She's a fkng karen….. he said colored or black or anyone – it has nothing to do with any of that – as that is what he was called out and attacked for doing before he even spoke – you say african american she would have said the same thing – black – same thing – non white – same thing – dark skin – same thing – same thing – same bs – if you're going to be mad be mad the dems created the KKK after they lost the civil war and have been PUSHING FOR MASKS SINCE 1865. Dems are mad they lost the vote – per the usual

  8. Republican party is George Santos, Tommy Tuberville, Eli Crane, etc

    This party is a cult worshipping Trump and

    stand with Neo-Nazis & White Nationalists.

    What happen to the party of family value, respect, working Americans?

  9. Of course. Another racist republican. It’s not even shocking anymore.

  10. so much in fighting and wasting time and using our money to decide on problems that they created for themselves. You're offended that someone used a "phrase" and you want the entire country to officially classify that phrase as offensive? And they actually interrupted their meeting to do this, like, let's find a reason to take a break from what we're Supposed to be doing and have a thing that's just about us…? Is that normal? How often do they get to stop working and file personal complaints, take breaks, change the subject, etc? These people are lazier than temp workers.

  11. Yeah he shoulda nvr used that word period.

  12. Difference between colored people and POC?

  13. Does the NAACP find it offensive??? Caucasians should not have to walk on eggshells just because they are not BLACK!!!

  14. So is he dyslexic and meant to say the politically correct term "people of color"?

  15. People of Color = Colored People. You can't have it one way. It's not offensive unless you're a bigot in the first place

  16. Get woke n women out of the military they're destroying it ‼️‼️

  17. We always gotta tell someone else to watch their mouths, but we can't take our own warnings to another a

  18. Yet they say people of color.clowns

  19. Did he say colored people 👀

  20. Don't be Surprised he is a Racist
