A Florida Congressman went into ideologically adverse territory Friday with talk show host Bill Maher. And he used language one wouldn’t expect from the Sunday talk shows along the way.
Among the discussion points on “Real Time“: the removal of “End Racism” messages from end zones at the National Football League’s showcase game Sunday.
“I think if you write ‘Don’t be an a******’ in an end zone, everybody will agree with that,” Rep. Byron Donalds said, using an earthy scatological expression for the human anus after Maher and co-panelist Tara Palmeri embraced similar language.
It remains to be seen if the NFL will embrace that suggestion.
Donalds also broke with President Donald Trump on a State Department appointee who previously expressed controversial viewpoints on race: Darren Beattie.
The Congressman said he was “very concerned” about the pick when presented with a Beattie tweet saying “competent White men must be in charge if you want things to work.”
For his part, Secretary of State Marco Rubio has addressed the controversy, noting that Beattie’s role would be “ending the censorship programs that were being operated out of the State Department, which can no longer continue and will no longer continue.”

Good Morn ‘Ting America,
These type of “Raicest Attack Articals” against America’s beloved African American citizens are on the increase from “Dook 4 Brains Leftys” who hate our Beloved Black citizens for escapeing from The Democratic Plantation and electing Donald Trump.
I, Earl Pitts “Political Genuis” American, am working with our Attorney General, Pam Bondy, to provide legal assistance to our Beloved Black Citizens, and to issue guidance for anyone, such as Bryon Donalds, who is attacked by these disgustimg “Leftist Hate Crimes”.
Hang in there Bryon, and rest assured that “PAM & EARL” got your back.
The above Truth, Justice, and the American Way “COMMON SENSE WISDOM” has been brought to you by, Earl Pitts “Political Genuis” American

Thank you Mr. Pitts and Ms. Bondy, for bringing these Leftist Hate Crimes against Black Americans to our National Attention. The Democrats, as we all know, were the origional slave owners here in The USA and as we see, “The Apple Does Not Fall Far From The Tree”.
Thanks again Mr. Pitts,

Thanks for your historical insights. As I am sure you know, the Southern Democrats (slave owners) abandoned the party under LBJ because he fought for the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act. Now these people have taken over and made a mockery of the party of Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt. If the apple hits your head, common sense may leak out.
