Fox News
EXCLUSIVE: Republican Rep. Byron Donalds slammed President Biden on Friday for invoking Jim Crow during his first formal press conference, saying he is "irresponsibly injecting race" into the conversation.
"In 2005, then-Sen. Biden said, 'At its core, the filibuster is not about stopping a nominee or a bill; it is about compromise and moderation. That is why the Founders put unlimited debate in. That is what it is about, engendering compromise and moderation,'" Donalds, of Florida, told Fox News. "Fast-forward to today, and now President Biden is irresponsibly injecting race and the travesty of Jim Crow to oppose the filibuster," Donalds said. "Time after time, Democrats resort to the race card to shield them from having to answer for their hypocrisy and radical policies."More Related News
