    Rep. Nicole Klein-Knight, D-Manchester, was removed from the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee on Monday at the request of Democratic leaders after a dozen Black, brown and Indigenous community organizers issued a letter condemning her.

    And of course she is your typical overweight, horn-rimmed glasses liberal Karen...

    The article didn't mention what she said exactly or I missed it. Oh well, it must have hurt some feelings if it was that bad and we all know we cannot have hurt feelings.

    Are they weighing people to hold elected office now? What does her weight or glasses have to do with this incident?

    Democrats clamp down on such asinine stupidity. Republicans would give her a leadership position... :roll:

    At the GOP they got the habit to just go double down on it, claim 1st amendment rights, and jaw drop when the "woke" culture gets them fired over it.

    Sounds okay to me. If she doesn’t represent the values of the party, she should not hold office in the party.

    Klein-Knight, who is in her second term, did not respond to a request for comment, nor did the young man. He has filed an ethics complaint with Statehouse officials, according to Alissandra Rodriguez-Murray, one of the organizers who signed the letter.

    Rodriguez-Murray said they and others have tried to resolve conflicts with the lawmaker privately. “She refused to engage with any of us and has blocked us on all social media platforms, called us antisemitic and bigoted, and tried to have many of us fired from our jobs,” Rodriguez-Murray said in an email.

    So what you're saying is that Dems actually held her accountable, like they should ?

    People with low self esteems tend to be racist and mean spirited.. They hate themselves every morning when they towel off after the shower and mirror reality..

    She is STaTE REPRESENTTIVE IN NEW HMPSHIRE not a federal representative. Whatever she said was directed against a single black person whom she also called security on.

    I was thinking the same thing. For all we know she might have been simply saying OK, and we all know OK is racist to some people.

    As I go through this thread I’m amused about how the left is trying to turn this into a GOP thing. A democrat did what democrats do, own it.

    My fellow humans, This thread is a great example of liberal hypocrisy.
    In the same thread he condemns a persons racist comments he also body shames someone for being overweight and even makes fun of the style of glasses

    sad!

    Considering the long history of highly racist comments uttered by Brandon, the dozen or so antisemitic things Omar and Tlaib have said, and the near endless series of anti-White rhetoric coming from progressives, I cant imagine what values you're referring to.

    Oh ok so they're selectively applied values, not outright values then. Because ya Cuomo was held accountable for his sexual misconduct, but Brandon is not. Just as this Rep Klein-Knight was held accountable for her alleged comment (btw not sure what she actually said if anyone can fill me in), but Brandon is not. I guess the truth is that values can often be set aside if the situation demands.
