Democrats Ban White Farmers from Federal COVID Relief Program
Posted on 3/21/21 at 7:25 pm
Posted on 3/21/21 at 7:25 pm
Last week, President Biden signed the American Rescue Plan Act into law. The bill, comprised of $1.9 trillion in the name of “COVID relief,” received no support from Republicans in the House or Senate, and it’s not hard to see why.
The legislation includes carveouts for dozens of leftist priorities, including a bridge in Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s New York and a tunnel in House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s Silicon Valley. These items clearly have nothing to do with pandemic relief for the millions of Americans out of work or the businesses shuttered by blue state governors’ harsh public health regulations. To the hardworking Americans everywhere, this bill should reek of the far-left’s desire to shove their ill-conceived policy priorities wherever they can stash them.
What most don’t know about this bill, however, is the small provision known as “Section 1005” that authorizes the secretary of agriculture to make payments of 100 to 120 percent of the “outstanding indebtedness of socially disadvantaged farmers.” Under this provision, those included in the socially disadvantaged category are American Indians, Alaskan Natives, Asians, Blacks, Native Hawaiians, Pacific Islanders, and Hispanics.
Putting aside all of the Washington jargon that makes little sense outside of a committee hearing room, this provision—specifically written into the American Rescue Plan by Democrats—pushes a blurred vision of so-called “social equity” by providing relief for farmers based on the color of their skin. Rather than offering much needed relief to all farmers, Sec. 1005 prioritizes race, just as it would ethnicity, sex, or any other factor.
It bears repeating: Sec. 1005 focuses debt relief on farmers based on their race, not based on how harshly the pandemic has affected them—the very reason for relief in the first place. Ironically, this racial discrimination is the very focus of what officials at the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) have worked so hard to combat.

If the USSC had any balls, they'd strike this down as unconstitutional. Unfortunately, 5 are leftists and cowards and Roberts is compromised.

And they call us racist.

Would be great if white farmers could cut off food to the dc democrats. But I know that is not possible.
They would have to do a total food strike which would hurt everyone, and the dc swamp would still figure out a way to get what little food they would distribute.

I'd like to see a breakdown of all the authors of this bill and why they introduced these atrocities. This has been in the works for years.
quote:
Everyone’s Asking “Who’s Really Running the WH?”…Richard Grenell Says He Knows…Grenell says he knows exactly who it is and it's NOT Kamala But it is a woman.
According to Grenell, the disgraced liar Susan Rice is actually the “real president” of the U.S. and is the one who called the shots on all the that Biden has issued.
“I think you need to watch Susan Rice very closely,” he said on “Sunday Morning Futures.” “She will be the shadow president.”
Grenell called Biden’s pick “interesting” considering Rice has no experience in domestic policy but nonetheless will be “incredibly influential” under the new administration.
Having served in the Obama administration as national security adviser, Rice already understands the “entire apparatus,” Grenell said.
“I think the reality is, she’s going to be running foreign policy, domestic policy,” he said. “She’s probably extremely happy that Kamala Harris is going to be preoccupied with the Senate… and won’t have a lot of time to get into policy issues.”

They really want white people to start marching with torches and pitchforks so they claim we’re all KKK.
Posted on 3/21/21 at 7:42 pm to cajunangelle
What if there are virtually zero minority farmers?
Like, farm owners
Smart play by the Dems. Set aside a massive amount of cash that will go unused and put into some other leftist agenda.

democrats have no fear of losing elections again thanks to cheat by mail and dominion. They're going to keep ramping up and destroying any group that threatens them.

White farmers should just claim they’re mixed race. If they make them take a DNA test it’ll almost definitely show some small percentage of another race in their family history

This is as racists as rasists gets.
How is distributing money based on race not the core definition of racists?

A major farm organization should sue for racial discrimination.
It's as simple as that. If people don't start standing up LOUDLY against this festering genocide, it may just happen.

They had to pass the bill so somebody would read it and tell them what was in it.
