BREAKING: Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott hits back hard after racist Republicans absurdly blame him for the ship collision that collapsed the Francis Scott Key Bridge, calling him "DEI mayor" because he's Black. This is the PERFECT response... "I know, and we know, and you know very well that Black men, and young Black men in particular, have been the bogeyman for those who are racist and think that only straight, wealthy White men should have a say in anything," said Mayor Scott during an appearance on MSNBC. It's worth noting that it wasn't just rank and file Republicans who launched racist smears at Scott. Utah State Representative Phil Lyman as well as congressional candidate Anthony Sabatini joined in. DEI, which stands for "Diversity, equity, and inclusion," has quickly become an obsession in right-wing circles, as they attempt to blame every problem on diversity. They use the term in place of a racial slur to articulate their bigotry without fully committing to it. "We’ve been the bogeyman for them since the first day they brought us to this country, and what they mean by DEI in my opinion is duly elected incumbent," Mayor Scott said. "We know what they want to say, but they don’t have the courage to say the N-word, and the fact that I don’t believe in their untruthful and wrong ideology,” he went on. "And I am very proud of my heritage and who I am and where I come from scares them, because me being at my position means that their way of thinking, their way of life of being comfortable while everyone else suffers is going to be at risk, and they should be afraid because that’s my purpose in life," he added. He stated that "everybody is working together" on the rebuild efforts. "We’re ignoring all the conspiracy theorists, everyone who’s playing bridge engineer at home who’s never even taken a class on engineering and understanding that what this is about is showing the world once and again that Baltimore can’t be broken, our spirit is strong, and we will rebuild together and honor those who we lost," he said.

@OccupyDemocrats Houston here and you need to blame our government.That bridge should have been replaced with a segmented...One decade ago the money gets to the projects and then the work never gets done.
@OccupyDemocrats I can't wait to see him build a new DEI bridge.
@OccupyDemocrats No one blames him for the bridge collapse and you can’t show otherwise.
@OccupyDemocrats No one blamed him for the shipwreck.
Wow! Who are those guys that jump on racism as an excuse for the accident? I haven’t had the opportunity to read their statements, but I do know most Republicans (which is the anti-racist party that fought against slavery) doesn’t feel racism has any part in the bridge falling.. It is sad that Democrats try to conjure HATRED whenever there is a catastrophe where Americans lost their lives.. Democrats love to stereotype all people based on the minority.. That is the lie they perpetuate and have perpetuated since the Democrat party began.. Remember the “Trail of tears”.. “Indians are bad and are savages.”
@OccupyDemocrats Trump will win and sorry Biden Will lose
@OccupyDemocrats This is Baltimore, this is what happens when you defund the police.
@OccupyDemocrats Bro looks magestic for his age man
