Psaki: 'No question' Trump rhetoric fed anti-Asian bias
By Brett Samuels - 03/17/21 04:08 PM EDT

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Wednesday that former President Trump's rhetoric around the coronavirus pandemic has contributed to discrimination against Asian Americans, comments that come in the wake of Tuesday's shootings in and around Atlanta that left several Asian women dead.

"I think there’s no question that some of the damaging rhetoric that we saw during the prior administration — calling COVID the 'Wuhan virus' or other things — led to perceptions of the Asian American community that are inaccurate, unfair... has elevated threats against Asian Americans, and we’re seeing that around the country," Psaki said during a briefing with reporters.

She pointed to President Biden's focus on the issue of anti-Asian American bias amid the pandemic, including a memo condemning and seeking to combat racism against Asian Americans.


Biden denounced hate crimes against Asian Americans during a primetime address last week marking one-year since pandemic restrictions began, calling the violence "un-American."

When did Democrats start pushing this racist stereotype of Asians being synonymous with prostitutes?

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

Biden & Co. dropped out of the lawsuit against Yale's discrimination against Asians. No Biden operative has credibility wrt violence and discrimination against Asians.

If her context was the shootings in GA, it's already pretty certain that the shooter was not motivated by race.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

True, but the rats' rhetoric these days is almost exclusively dishonest. They don't care if 164 million Americans know they are lying, as long as they can get 166 million to buy their bullsh*t.
