Authoritarian Democrat Party Punishes Two Black Office-Holders for Wrongthink

Karent Whitslett, the Detroit lawmaker who said that she was cured of covid by hydroxychloroquine.

Detroit Democrats plan to vote Saturday to censure and bar any future endorsements of a Democratic lawmaker who credited President Donald Trump with advocating for the drug that she said cured her of COVID-19.

State Rep. Karen Whitsett, D-Detroit, broke protocol by meeting with President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence during an April 14 meeting of COVID-19 survivors, during which she credited hydroxychloroquine for saving her life.

"Thank you for everything that you have done," Whitsett told Trump at the meeting. "I did not know that saying thank you had a political line. … I'm telling my story and my truth, and this how I feel and these are my words."

The admonition means she will not get the group’s endorsement for this year nor will she be able to engage in the group’s activities for the next two election cycles.

"At the end of the day, we have political systems," said Jonathan Kinloch, chairman of the organization. "We have political parties, and political parties exist for a reason."

"They do not belong to themselves," Kinloch said of endorsed candidates and elected officials. "They belong to the members and precinct delegates of the Democratic Party."

Georgia state rep Vernon Jones said he was leaving the Democrat plantation -- but then received so much vitriol and harassment from Democrats he said he would resign his seat.

Now, thanks to an outpouring of support, he says he'll keep his seat.
