— Jimmy Lee Tillman II: Joe Biden’s Handling of the Haitians at the Border Proves He’s a Racist. Alleged President Joe Biden’s handling of both the illegal immigration crisis and how our government is treating the Haitians proves that he’s a racist, according to Black Conservative and former GOP Congressional Candidate Jimmy Lee Tillman. The Left always cries about systemic racism, but the only party implementing systemic racism is the Democrat Party. Democrats are the party of racism, Jim Crow laws and slavery. – Jeff Dornik
