Capehart gets his radical creds May 28, 2025

 Jonathan Capehart, the last standing African American on the Washington Post editorial board, has just come out with a book detailing his heroic act of resigning when the board refused to take his extreme radical position and condemn voter reform as racist.

This came after the mentally deranged Joe Biden compared one state laws to Jim Crow, and the white members of the Washington Post board called it an exaggeration.

Capehart took offense and resigned, since he agreed with Biden’s extreme assessment.

Biden, who has become the poster child for political puppets, was swept into office (supposedly) in 2020 by a huge turn out by African American voters – even though Biden’s record showed he had once supported the real Jim Crow and had authored devastating legislation as a U.S. Senator that resulted in the incarceration of many African Americans.

You would think Biden would know Jim Crow when he saw it, even though Biden struggled to remember what he had for breakfast and at times thanked people in the audience he should have known were dead.

There is an old saying that we should not judge people unless we walked a mile in their shoes. This can be said of Capehart, who is one of the most successful journalist in the nation, but who clearly knows what it is like to live the life of an average African American, unlike other radical Black leaders such as Crockett in Texas, who tells us that to require ID to vote is racist because African Americans can’t easily get such ID, even though most have driver’s licenses and those collecting welfare and other benefits are required to have such ID.

Obviously, from his elevated position on the Washington Post, Capehart has a clearer view of what average Blacks to through, and is not blinded by the same foolish notions as Crockett and other radicals, and can honestly claim that voting laws designed to assure that those people who are voting are legally entitled to do so are the same as Jim Crow.  He obviously recalls being forced to sit on the back of a bus, use black-only water fountains, and was never allowed to sit with white as the Woolworth’s lunch counter. This is a journalist with such wide experience as to be able to label voting reform as racist, even when he probably secretly knows the reforms are designed to prevent voter fraud.

Capehart is clearly a true hero, rivaling those who marched with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and faced firehoses and billyclubs, and will likely go down in history as someone on the same questionable level as the author of the 1619 Project – a document so filled with historic errors, Capehart might even be seen as a more significant hero.

By resigning from the Washington Post board (which is filled with sympathetic and utterly biased liberal journalists), Capehart has demonstrated how much a martyr he is to the cause, getting streets creds he couldn’t get from real life experience on the streets of Newark, Detroit, Chicago or LA.

You can bet he’ll be welcomed by radical left professors, white or black, throughout the country as he engages in his book tour (and he won’t be sitting in the back of the bus either.)
