Barbara Lee I’ve spent my life fighting discrimination in every form, from anyone. I unequivocally condemn Minister Farrakhan’s anti-Semitic and hateful comments. This vitriol has no place in our society. https://twitter.com/RepBarbaraLee/st...08897223872512
Davis, a Democrat who has represented parts of Chicago since 1997, told the conservative Daily Caller last month that he thought Farrakhan was an “outstanding human being,” and claimed in another interview last week that “The world is so much bigger than Farrakhan and the Jewish question and his position on that and so forth.”
...
Thursday evening, he explicitly distanced himself from Farrakhan. “Let me be clear: I reject, condemn and oppose Minister Farrakhan’s views and remarks regarding the Jewish people and the Jewish religion,” he said.

It's been in the news . That is why people Are releasing statements . Don't be so obtuse .
Further more , funny how Dems have to disavow a racist homophobe( who actually disavowed Democrats when they started supporting gay marriage ), but you people were fawning over Graham just last week.
The Graham family has 2.5 million followers between 4 Twitter accounts so, let's not play this game. Republicans are going to lose every time.
He's probably saying there are 10x as many people who support black racists who support violence (aka liberal democrats) as there are people who support white racists.
You make a good point. If it's a true number I wonder why that is? I wouldn't think that's anything anyone would want to be #1 in...
Ah, so if Trump meets with N. Korea that means he supports him??
Everyone I meet - means I support them?
No doubt a lot of black folks consider Louis one of them. Big deal. He is a lightweight compared to the KKKers that are gaining millions of followers all over the web and the Russians who the Right now love.
You realize how lame your attempt at defending Louis is right? As for "millions of followers", back that up with actual hard facts please, not just guessing or FPFA (facts pulled from A..).
If not for the mainstream media nobody would know who Duke is. Farrakhan meanwhile is never discussed but apparently is way more prominent on the left
Could that be because the left leaning MSM is A. happy to point out a far right WHITE racist loon but is hesitant to just fine with left leaning ones?
Or, B. is MSM really afraid/terrified of the blacklash that they'd certainly get for highlighting how racist and bigoted Louis and the Nation of Islam is?
I think people are arguing past each other as usual and in a rare thread on CD both sides have legitimate points.
As noted on page 1, David Duke is not some singular white supremacist figure. There are other organizations so a 1:1 comparison isn't fair.
However, Farrakhan is a known racist and has clearly more acceptable ties within the democratic party.....while in rebuttal we get posts about how Trump *probably* follows David Duke on Twitter.
