Sheila Jackson Lee: ’Racism’ a ‘National Security Threat’--‘Huge Sums of Money’ Needed to Win Over ‘White Minds’
[BREITBART] Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee
......the clownish U.S. Representative-for-life for Texas's 18th congressional district, serving since 1995. The district includes most of inner-city Houston. She is noted for her lack of tact and intellect. She is a member of the Democratic Party, and almost its epitome......
(D-TX) on Tuesday declared that "racism" is "a national security threat" and urged President Donald Trump
...dictatorial for repealing some (but not all) of the diktats of his predecessor, misogynistic because he likes pretty girls, homophobic because he doesn't think gender bending should be mandatory, truly a man for all seasons......
’s administration to invest more federal funds to "get into the lives" and "minds" of young white males who are "drawn to white militia, white supremacy, white nationalism because they have nothing else to do."

"I believe that racism... should be declared a national security threat," Jackson Lee said during a House Homeland Security Committee hearing. "Racism is a national security threat. Before, we would say, ’you have a right to your racist views. You have a right to believe that slavery was right. That segregation was right.’ We live in an era where that can no longer be allowed."

Before insisting again that "racism is a national security threat," Jackson Lee added that she is a "huge believer in civil liberties and the Bill of Rights, and particularly the first amendment of the Constitution."

She said FBI statistics prove "an acceleration" of hate crimes since Trump became president and asked: "Who is the predominant actor? Young, disaffected white males... what is a major factor? Youth."

"We must find a way to invest huge sums of money intervening in these white minds that are drawn to white militia, white supremacy, white nationalism because they have nothing else to do ‐ no intervention, no recreation, no libraries, no training of communities," Jackson Lee insisted.

Jackson Lee warned that without these investments that will enable organizations, like faith-based groups, "to be able to get into the lives of these individuals," America will wind up with more dead parishioners and more people "whose lives are turned upside down" by white supremacists like the El Paso shooter.

#3 "Investment" is one of those words that should cause the tongue of any politician mouthing it to bust into unquenchable flame.
