Candace Owens: Trump Tweet About ‘The Squad’ Is ‘100% Truth;’ ‘Stop Defending These Racists’ By Craig Bannister for CNS News
“Stop defending these racists,” conservative commentator and Blexit leader Candice Owens urged on Twitter Monday, referring to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-NY) “Squad” of far-left Democrat congresswomen.
Owens was replying to a tweet by President Donald Trump declaring The Squad “a very racist group of troublemakers.” In voicing her agreement with Trump, Owens pointed to a racial slur about Trump advisor KellyAnne Conway made by The Squad’s Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.):
“This is 100% truth. The media ignored @AyannaPressley referring to KellyAnne Conway as “Becky”—a RACIST perjorative.
“They’ve ignored @AOC’s multiple RACIST attacks on ANY white person that questions her.
@IlhanMN openly HATES Jewish people.
“Stop defending these RACISTS!”
On July 9, Pressley referred to Conway as “Becky,” a slur of white women, NewsWeek reports:
Now is your chance to support Gospel News Network.
We love helping others and believe that’s one of the reasons we are chosen as Ambassadors of the Kingdom, to serve God’s children. We look to the Greatest Commandment as our Powering force.
The term “Becky,” used to disparage so-called “basic” white women, gained national notoriety in the 1992 hip-hop classic “Baby Got Back” by Sir Mix-a-Lot. Two white women can be heard saying, “Oh, my, God Becky, look at her butt/ It is so big, she looks like/ One of those rap guys’ girlfriends,” at the outset of the iconic song.
