Squad Members Cori Bush And Jamaal Bowman Give Farewell Speeches – And Nobody Shows Up

As we near the end of another session in Congress, Americans witnessed the departure of two members of what was once known as the progressive “Squad.”

Representatives Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) and Cori Bush (D-MO) delivered farewell speeches filled with the usual progressive rhetoric. They were met with very little fanfare.

Bowman and Bush spoke to a nearly empty chamber. In fact, the video shows the pair were only accompanied by fellow Squad Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and Ayanna Pressley (D-MA). Bowman would be joined by his wife.

The irony of their exit speeches, where they continued to push for reparations, condemn Israel, and echo the sentiments of fringe elements within their party, is not lost on those who have followed their careers.

They were shouting empty rhetoric to an empty room. Their congressional careers in a nutshell.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Live in  harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.

Romans 12:16-18
