According to their site, the Congressional Black Caucus PAC’s sole purpose is to uplift black candidates so why then, did they bankroll the white guy? Veteran and black GOP candidate, Jennifer-Ruth Green was furious to see the CBC mock her campaign by donating to her opponent incumbent Democrat Frank Mrvan.
The shady Democrat reportedly leaked Green’s military record which included details about her sexual assault that took place while in combat overseas. It was a blatant and horrific attempt to shame and smear her— and the CBC chose to send him funds?
“The hypocrisy in this decision is so incredibly clear,” Green said on “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” “We see this is about power and about policy. This is about process. This is not about progress.”
Green is running to unseat Democrat Rep. Frank Mrvan, D-Ind. If elected, she will become the only Black female Republican in Congress. Green said the Congressional Black Caucus’ 9CBC0 decision to back her White challenger with a $5,000 donation to his campaign exposes the corrupt priorities and political bias of the group.
“These are the liberal elites who want to have power and are focused on retaining it,” she told Carlson. “Their decision to back my opponent is hypocritical at best, because largely when you think about the fact that I understand the Black cultural experience better than any White man ever will, I understand the growth that needs to occur, I understand what needs to happen, and I’m committed as a Black woman, and as an Asian-American woman, to progressing minorities in our country. I seem like the clear choice, but because they want power over politics, the hypocrisy continues to be loud and proud.”
Green added that in her congressional district which includes Gary, Indiana, American people are suffering at “sub-poverty level.” Her opponent has “zero regard for them,” she told Carlson.
“Here are people that are hurting,” Green said. “The economy that the congressman has voted for has put them in a place where they have to choose between gas and groceries.… these are African Americans who are clearly hurting. He has zero regard for them.”
“But I can tell you this,” Green continued. “There’s a line a mile and a half long of cars that sit outside my headquarters, people who need to get to the food pantry, who need help, and this is the America that the CBC wants to act as if it is helping Black people, and it’s very clearly not in Indiana’s Congressional 1st District.”
The CBC released the following statement about their decision:
“Congressman Mrvan understands the importance of a woman’s right to choose and protecting access to healthcare for all people,” they said. ” One of his first votes in Congress was for the American Rescue Plan which helped end this pandemic, put workers back on the job, and shored up the kinds of small businesses that are the backbone of Black community.”
