He’s right, you know.

Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib is once again making headlines again after giving a rather controversial statement concerning how non-black operators of facial recognition software cannot be trusted to do their jobs properly, a comment that did not at all sit well with the Detroit Chief of Police.

In fact, he said her statement was “insulting.”

Here’s more from The Daily Wire:

“Analysts need to be African Americans, not people that are not,” Tlaib told Detroit Police Chief James Craig. “Non-African Americans think African Americans all look the same.”

Craig immediately responded to Tlaib: “I trust people who are trained regardless of race and regardless of gender. It is about the training.”

Later, speaking to a local news outlet, Craig said: “The fact that she made that statement, what does that say to the members of this department who are analysts, who are trained, who are white? That they in some way can’t do their job professionally? That’s insulting.”

Detroit Police Chief James Craig asked if her making that statement with no backlash was a "double standard."

Tlaib insisted her comments were fine, saying that facial recognition technology is "broken," despite being shown how it's used.https://t.co/JxaJqiwDzO pic.twitter.com/oshlHwPl0K

“But here’s what’s troubling, as a police chief who happens to be African-American in this city, if I made a similar statement people would be calling for my resignation right now,” Craig continued.

The left may not want to admit it, but Craig has a point here. There’s a definite double standard that exists where the left is not held accountable for ridiculously awful comments like the one spoken by Tlaib simply because they belong to the “in crowd” and holds the “correct” worldview.

This ought not be so, but yet, it is. The outrage mob is actually only outraged when facing off against a worldview that contradicts their own, which just goes to show how little tolerance they possess for people different than themselves.

You woke up on Thursday morning and not much changed, you know, other than Joe Biden being sworn-in as president of the United States. As sad as it sounds, Donald Trump is now a former president. Antifa is still doing its thing – causing mayhem; throwing tantrums. How does Joe feel about this taking place on the day of his inauguration? Does he feel like we’re “united?” Here’s some footage from Portland… https://twitter.com/jasonrantz/status/1352042944736481280?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1352042944736481280%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Ftherightscoop.com%2Fbreaking-antifa-is-so-happy-about-biden-they-bust-up-dnc-building-in-portland-and-fight-with-cops%2F https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/1352043124512747523?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1352043124512747523%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Ftherightscoop.com%2Fbreaking-antifa-is-so-happy-about-biden-they-bust-up-dnc-building-in-portland-and-fight-with-cops%2F https://twitter.com/Uhbd1521/status/1352042748828905474?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1352042748828905474%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Ftherightscoop.com%2Fbreaking-antifa-is-so-happy-about-biden-they-bust-up-dnc-building-in-portland-and-fight-with-cops%2F Check out this cop being surrounded… https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/1352046446279856129?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1352046446279856129%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Ftherightscoop.com%2Fbreaking-antifa-is-so-happy-about-biden-they-bust-up-dnc-building-in-portland-and-fight-with-cops%2F https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/1352053833220947969?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1352053833220947969%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Ftherightscoop.com%2Fbreaking-antifa-is-so-happy-about-biden-they-bust-up-dnc-building-in-portland-and-fight-with-cops%2F And don’t forget about Seattle… https://twitter.com/BGOnTheScene/status/1352065723623895040?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1352065723623895040%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2021%2F01%2Fseattle-antifa-terrorists-riot-target-amazon-store-video%2F https://twitter.com/BGOnTheScene/status/1352064273283911680?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1352064273283911680%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2021%2F01%2Fseattle-antifa-terrorists-riot-target-amazon-store-video%2F https://twitter.com/BGOnTheScene/status/1352067722989899778?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1352067722989899778%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2021%2F01%2Fseattle-antifa-terrorists-riot-target-amazon-store-video%2F https://twitter.com/PrestonTVNews/status/1352074506492235776?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1352074506492235776%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2021%2F01%2Fseattle-antifa-terrorists-riot-target-amazon-store-video%2F H/T: Right Scoop

Trump May Be Accessory to Murder for Inciting Capitol Riot ‘Insurrection,’ Says Pelosi

Nice try, Nancy.

If President Trump is an accessory to murder for inciting violence on January 6 at the Capitol building, then wouldn’t countless Democrats be accessories for all the slayings and beatings and censorship of conservatives over the years? Double standard much, Nancy? SMH. Check this out, via The Daily Wire: In an interview with MSNBC’s Joy Reid Wednesday, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) suggested that now-former President Donald Trump could be held as an “accessory” to murder for “instigating” an “insurrection” at the United States Capitol. Pelosi, who presided over a vote to impeach Trump a second time but has yet to send the article of impeachment to the Senate for a trial, told Reid that she believed Trump directly encouraged rioters to attack the United States Capitol building and that Trump bears responsibility for the five deaths that happened as a result. Nancy barked, “When we talk about ‘did any of our colleagues collaborate?’ Well, that remains to be seen. We have to get the evidence of that. And if they did, they would be accessory to the crime. And the crime, in some cases, was murder.” She added, “And this president is an accessory to that crime because he instigated that insurrection that caused those deaths and this destruction.” LOOK: https://twitter.com/Millie__Weaver/status/1349853929568399368?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1349853929568399368%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Ftherightscoop.com%2Fnew-arrest-in-capitol-riots-and-what-a-surprise-its-a-blm-radical%2F https://twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/1349864786092298240?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1349864786092298240%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Ftherightscoop.com%2Fnew-arrest-in-capitol-riots-and-what-a-surprise-its-a-blm-radical%2F https://twitter.com/tvheidihatch/status/1349851169103888384 https://twitter.com/tvheidihatch/status/1347025829058936832?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1347025829058936832%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Ftherightscoop.com%2Fnew-arrest-in-capitol-riots-and-what-a-surprise-its-a-blm-radical%2F https://twitter.com/Cernovich/status/1349856737180827649?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1349856737180827649%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Ftherightscoop.com%2Fnew-arrest-in-capitol-riots-and-what-a-surprise-its-a-blm-radical%2F H/T: Right Scoop
