Texas Republican Chip Roy appointed Byron Donalds from Florida.<\/p>\n<p>Roy began the nomination \u2014 which challenges Kevin McCarthy, the outgoing GOP minority leader, for the top position in the House \u2014 by highlighting Donalds\u2019s race as Democrats nominate New York Rep. Hakeem Jeffries. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow here we are, and for the first time in history there have been two black Americans placed into the nomination for speaker of the House,\u201d Roy spoke before the fourth vote. <\/p>\n<p>The proclamation was received with standing ovation and roaring applause as the lawmakers at each end of the chamber celebrated this historic racial milestone, 158 years after the fall of American slavery. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever,\u201d Roy continued, \u201cwe do not seek to judge people by the color of their skin but rather the content of their character.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Republicans stood once more to cheer the phrase, which was first popularized in 1963 by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. two miles west at the Lincoln Memorial. Most Democrats on the aisle, however, were too enthralled with a form identity politics that is obsessed by skin color and remained seated with both their arms crossed. <\/p>\n<p>The contrast between these two parties speaks volumes about American race relations. <\/p>\n<p>Democrats couldn\u2019t celebrate the famous line from the 20th-century civil rights icon because color blindness is no virtue in the church of wokeness, the new secular religion to take over the Democratic Party. <\/p>\n<p>A pair of left-wing racists was just one example of the lens through which Democrats view skin color. They entered American homes in December. <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/12\/16\/popular-left-wing-racists-on-dr-phil-expose-the-hostility-of-democrats-who-see-skin-color-as-everything\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">went on \u201cDr. Phil\u201d<\/a> To accuse white women inherent racism. <\/p>\n<p>Regina Jackson Turner and Saira Raho, who are both well-known for their talents.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2020\/06\/30\/belittled-women-the-rise-of-white-guilt-chick-lit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">charging<\/a> white women $2,500 each for a dinner at which guests are told how they\u2019re white supremacists, went on the daytime program to promote their new documentary \u201cDeconstructing Karen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When a white woman seated next to Dr. Phillip McGraw refused to capitulate to Rao and Jackson\u2019s accusation of racism, instead insisting \u201cI\u2019m not racist,\u201d Rao cut her off. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, you are,\u201d Rao yelled at the alleged white oppressor. \u201cYes, you absolutely are. If you don\u2019t see race, then you don\u2019t see racism, and then you uphold racism.\u201d<\/p>\n[embedded content]\n<p>In the pair\u2019s documentary, Rao extrapolated the point further. Marni, a dinner guest, described how she views the world and was indifferent to race.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt doesn\u2019t faze me at all,\u201d Marni says. \u201cWhen we all bleed, we bleed red.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m just going to drop the bomb here, that\u2019s white supremacy,\u201d Rao responded. \u201cColorblindness is white supremacy.
