I still can’t swallow what’s going down in the 66th district of the Great State of Michigan (and most likely in other districts as well, but as they say, vermin prefer the darkness and silence). Remember: you of the 66th district voted for this misguided soul and you of the 66th have done nothing in regards to his removal from office. Silentium dat consensum.
After ca. a month of Rep Schriver having his budget and staff stripped for his continued online espousal and propagation of “white-nationalist, far-right conspiracy theory”, it took House Minority Leader Matt Hall all that time to finally issue a carefully-worded, no-sharp-edges statement in regards to Rep Schriver’s…ermmmm…questionable behaviour…
Hall did not use the word “racist” in describing the “great replacement” post that Schriver shared on the social media platform X, and his comments fell short of the condemnation Democrats have requested. But Hall said lawmakers and other public servants “have to understand how other people feel about the words you use.”
On Wednesday, Hall said he’s discussed the issue with both Schriver and Tate and has encouraged Schriver to communicate in a more effective, inclusive and sensitive way, though Hall stopped short of saying he had encouraged Schriver to apologize.
Hall said he’d never heard of “replacement theory” before Schriver brought it to his attention.
The entire statement misses the mark by just so much…of course, that’s in my less-than-humble opinion.

Here’s a news article about it. This is also corroborated by the FBI, who’ve been warning about white supremacists for years now. All the way back in the early 2000s they were telling people about white supremacists infiltrating the police for recruitment.
Of course, all you have to do to notice this pattern by looking at what groups are showing up to protest LGBTQ+ events and counterprotest leftist events (You’ll regularly see Atomwaffen, Patriot Front, etc), and try doing any research on them. It takes very little to find out they’re white supremacist. Or just look at what the vast majority of mass shooters believe. You can track that yourself too, just wait a week or so and they usually have their history uncovered.
This is also nothing new. We’ve had white supremacists attacking the black community since emancipation, such as the KKK. MLK’s assassination was ultimately pinned on white supremacists (that is the controversial official story told by the FBI).
Here’s a video talking about a history I hear alot about Vietnam being responsible with many of the white supremacist groups we see now.
Thanks, pal! You went above and beyond.
