Missouri can’t let go of the death penalty

The constitutional crisis that people kept warning the world about is now front and center.

Former Missouri State Attorney General and now Senator Eric Schmitt was crystal clear in his analysis of the campaign to rid St. Louis of its Black female legislators. Sure, his post-election post was braggadocious in nature but do not get lost in the tone. Focus on the words which confirmed my declaration that there has been a campaign to rid St. Louis of any Black, forward-thinking elected officials, making St. Louis white again.

It was a methodical and calculated plan that began with character assassination, disinformation, amplification of their missteps and bad decisions, then engaging other opportunists and misguided Black folks to fan the flames.
