In the June 15th Maryland Reporter, we are alerted to an article that appears in MoCo 360 with the headline “Montgomery Councilmember Mink Apologizes for Language in 2019 tweets about ‘Zionist Jews’”. However, this is the second time in a week that Mink has had to apologize for language denigrating a religious group for the stand they are taking against the MCPS’ decision to eliminate the “opt out” option when matters regarding LGBTQ are to be presented in class.
Yes, I know Councilmember Mink …
… has apologized to the Muslim community for claiming Muslim children speaking out at a school board meeting were "on the same side… as White supremacists”,
and recently, she has apologized to the Jewish community for her antisemitic remarks on Twitter in 2019 when she tweeted in response to the announcement that the Trump Administration was appointing “Our new Middle East peace envoy … Jared Kushner's ‘coffee boy,'" she said, referring to Avi Berkowitz. This position was previously held by Trump's real estate lawyer [Jason Greenblatt]. Both are Zionist Jews," she said ‘he had no relevant experience for the job’. Imagine a man with no relevant experience producing the Abraham Accords … and with no relevant experience.
In fact, it is Kristin Mink who seems less than qualified to be on the MoCo Council, unless making racial remarks about Jews, Muslims and white women is now a qualification. On June 9th, FOX News published an article in which Councilmember Mink was cited as having written an email: “In 2019, Mink wrote to her former colleagues at an organization called Lights for Liberty expressing why she was resigning; she described her perception of negative experiences at the organization as a "tale of White feminism," and noted that as the reason for her departure. She … explained that the left-wing organization she co-founded was too White on the executive level for her preferences. The organization she co-founded was too white? Seriously?
But it does not stop there. Mink’s Twitter account has been notable, as pointed out by FOX News, for her tweeting:
'Healing' and ‘unity’ have for so long meant disregarding the harms done to [Black, Indigenous, People of Color] for the comfort of White people".
"I've been looking for almost an hour and can't find a vehicle puzzle for my kid that isn't populated entirely by White people, or White [people] plus one token Black person."
This woman has also expressed support for the demand that White people should use their bodies as a human shield in between confrontations with Black people and police. She has complained about rising crime in her district conveniently forgetting that right after being elected she demanded that the County Executive defund the police.
So … when is enough racism enough? It is clear that no matter what she says or how many times she apologizes in her heart, Kristin Mink is a racist. As a first generation Chinese American, she should know that there are an unlimited number of racial epithets regarding the Chinese who have come to America. Yet she does not complain that she has suffered as a result of being called out by these epithets … No, she is the one slinging the barbs and arrows of racial hate.
In MoCo, the white population is already a minority (43.4% Non-Hispanic White). So, if Kristen Mink is not surrounded by an adequate number of brown and black people, she only has herself to blame. It is clear that Kristen Mink is a racist. The citizens of MoCo need to remove her from her Council seat when the next election rolls around.
If only Marc; what a great day that would be; but unfortunately many conservatives in this area (yes there are a few of us as you know) have already accepted and believe that she will be here for her full stint.....12 years and that we are powerless to stop her. Well, we alone are but hopefully more groups like the Muslims she insulted will have the will to stand up to the MOCO machine and put up a candidate and rally around them. Because apparently the Jews, Christians and concerned parents that are not Muslim are not enough to be scared of so we don't warrant an apology or attention from the local media
And just one anecdote; after calling for defunding the police guess what ol Mink did when she had a flat tire one day........Yep, called the chief of police and demanded an officer come help her change it.......Can't make it up
