Congresswoman Yvette Clarke is a Democrat who represents New York’s 11th District which is in Brooklyn. She consented to an interview with Steve Colbert of Comedy Central and when prompted about what she would do if she could return to 1898 when the borough became part of New York City said that she would free the slaves from the Dutch.
See it yourself.
Fear not for the Republic with such people writing our laws.
That was sarcasm.
BTW, she’s not embarrassed. She tweeted her supporters to watch it saying: My interview on The Colbert Report airs tonight at 11:30pm on Comedy Central. It will also be available online at http://www.colbertnation.com
