GOP State Rep Posts Bonkers Tweet Claiming CRT Made Her 'Black Friend' Turn 'Hostile and Unpleasant'

GOP State Rep Posts Bonkers Tweet Claiming CRT Made Her 'Black Friend' Turn 'Hostile and Unpleasant'
NBC 10 News

Republicans at every level of politics and media have condemned critical race theory—an advanced academic framework examining the effects of 400+ years of slavery and segregation on current U.S. social and governmental institutions—is damaging to society.

They've falsely claimed that the theory is taught widely in secondary schools and that it teaches white children to hate themselves. Republican elected officials have pounced on this mass delusion, with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis proposing the "Stop W.O.K.E. Act" and Tennessee schools mulling fines of a million dollars to districts where critical race theory is supposedly taught.


The Republican minority leader of the Rhode Island House of Representatives—Patricia Morgan—is yet another Republican lawmaker promoting critical race theory hysteria.

Earlier this year, Morgan proposed a bill to ban the teaching of "divisive concepts" in Rhode Island schools, further peddling the delusion that critical race theory teaches that white people are "bad."

On Tuesday, Morgan invoked "a Black friend" who supposedly turned "hostile and unpleasant" to her—something Morgan suggested occurred not because Morgan did anything wrong, but because of tenets she believes are taught in critical race theory.

Morgan went on to claim that critical race theory teaches Americans to "divide us because of our skin color," rather than approaching current dynamics with the basic knowledge that history impacts the present.

Morgan's anecdote was roundly decried on social media.






People were skeptical that Morgan "didn't do anything," as she claimed.



Morgan's Black friend could not be reached for comment.

AOC Saves The Day By Giving Bronx Middle School Group A Tour Of The Capitol Amid Shutdown

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had people cheering after she stepped in to act as tour guide after a group of middle schoolers from the Bronx pulled up to the Capitol hours after the U.S. government officially shut down.

The federal government shut down early Wednesday after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending. While Senate Democrats are in the minority, they hold enough seats to filibuster and are insisting that Republicans agree to extend federal subsidies for people insured under the Affordable Care Act.

GOP Lawmaker Sparks Outrage After Calling For Dem Rep. To Be Executed For Urging People To Protest Trump

On Wednesday, September 25, an Arizona MAGA Republican state Representative publicly called for the execution of Washington Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal because she urged anyone displeased with MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's job performance to exercise their First Amendment right to free speech and to protest.

Apparently, urging citizens to make their voices heard was a step too far for Arizona state GOP Representative John Gillette, who responded to a clip edited out of a longer video by right-wing account The Patriot Oasis (TPO). A quick scan through Gillette's X account media posts will reveal his political leanings.

Liberal TikToker Mortified After Discovering That Her Therapist Is Hardcore MAGA

There used to be a time where politics did not have to come into every room or be a part of every conversation. But in a world with President Trump and MAGA, it's not as simple as being Red, Blue, or Green anymore.

Now, the sociopolitical climate is dangerous for many people and still very stress-inducing for others. It's important to surround ourselves with people who make us feel safe and seen—and unfortunately, that might mean cutting out people who have "different beliefs" than we do.
