Dem sen: White supremacists are 'sprinkled around the White House'

Source: The Hill




BY JULIA MANCHESTER - 10/22/17 09:58 AM EDT

Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Oh.) agreed with Rep. Frederica Wilson's (D-Fla.) claim this week that there were white supremacists in the White House, saying there were white supremacists "sprinkled around the White House."

"I agree that Steve Bannon is a white supremacist, and Stephen Miller seems to be, and I know that studies have shown they have their allies sprinkled around the White House," Brown told CNN's Dana Bash on "State of the Union" on Sunday.

Brown's comments come after Wilson told The New York Times that “The White House itself is full of white supremacists." Her comments come after she found herself in a feud with President Trump and his Chief of Staff John Kelly.

Wilson said earlier this week Trump had made insensitive remarks to the widow of Army Sgt. La David Johnson in which he said "he knew what he signed up for, but I guess it still hurt."

sprinkled like slathering the barbecue sauce on ribs.

By the time the extremist repugs get done Brown v. Board will be overturned and 'separate but equal' will be the law of the land again.

bureaucratic pencil pushers with no real talent beyond their ultra racism straight out of a 1939 German propaganda movie. He really belongs on humanity’s dung heap, not in the Whitehouse. The same as dotard.

That's who Miller reminds me of, Adolf Eichmann!

Eichmann was unremarkable, until the Nazis came to power...that's Stephen Miller!!!
