“The party’s over
It’s time to call it a day
They’ve burst your pretty balloon
And taken the moon away
It’s time to wind up
The masquerade
Just make your mind up
The piper must be paid”

Van Jones had a meltdown on CNN following Super Tuesday, describing his fears of Donald Trump and Trump’s success at the polls.
JONES: Listen, hold on a second. We have a big problem at this point now. Because I agree with you about a lot. I think we have taken him not seriously, we have not respected his voters, but there is a dark underside here, and S.E. is right. He is whipping up and tapping into and pushing buttons that are very, very frightening to me and frightening to a lot of people.
Van Jones is a member in good standing of a class of African-American elites who have ridden the progressive gravy train for everything it is worth. They have gotten admissions and scholarships to Harvard and Yale. They have gotten plum jobs in Democratic Administrations. They have cashed in on real estate gentrification. Their not-for-profits have gotten support from the Clinton Foundation. Life has been good.
Exactly what was the value they delivered for this money?
While the Clinton Administration was increasing mandatory sentences and rounding up young black kids to fill up private prisons, the black elites were rushing to take advantage of the explosion of government contracts and grants — they created an attractive, educated black face to what was happening.
American narcotics trafficking and slave labor grew under the rainbow colors of Eric Holder’s leadership at the Department of Justice and the African American attorneys who represented Hillary Clinton. The drug profits from Mena, Arkansas carried their invisible influence through the power corridors of Washington.
After a lull in which the Bush Administration and the Republicans took their turn at shifting America to a fascist state, the Democrats returned to power with the Obama Administration.
Our first African American President, supported by an African American First Lady (herself a lawyer), an African-American chief-of-staff and an African American attorney general, ensured:
- The delivery of $27 trillion to the banks
- A cover up of the $8.5 trillion missing from the federal government
- Continued genocide in the Middle East and Africa – continents filled with brown and black people
US prisons continued to fill up with lots of black people. And the folks who engineered Obama into the White House were richly rewarded for playing the African-American card.
