🎯 You can't have one if you are a Rethuglicon today. Ann Coulter said out loud and publicly, "Our blacks are better than theirs!" Only one way to take that: black Rethuglicons are "tokens," possessions to parade when needed to try to show Americans they aren't racist, not pro-white nationalists. LOL!
History is filled with men and women who sold out their own for personal gain. Tim falls in line with that history. The scent of power, money, and a sense of superiority is intoxicating for some people.
but the nice salary continues as a 90/40 politician. His role is to garner the confused black people who see any black politician assuming office...any office...as a ''winner''. Odd thinking but it keeps scott going, insulting as it appears.
Nothing poor about Tim Scott. He's no little child who doesn't know better or is lost. Ann Coulter publicly and proudly yelled out long time ago, "Our blacks are better than their blacks!" Only way to take that comment is to understand black Rethuglicons are possessions. And if you are black in this infamously known pro-white nationalist, racist tribe, then you have some real issues of self-loathing & think your money or love of it let's you be part of the Rethuglicon bro club.
"Forget the sock" Come on Medhi, how can we forget the socks. The man has a nice socks game. Great work Medhi. You always go beyond the surface to give us real stories. Great presentation!
And so is the cognitive piece of crap you call the president is it not him licking the boots of the progressive radicals because they got the old Coot elected they had no choice. There was nobody else, and there still isn’t will never.
Greenville here 🤘 We, South Carolinian's need better options, we deserve better people representing us, the constituents, instead of their own personal interests and the billion dollar corporations that put them there. What's absurdly asinine to me is how Scott ran completely UNOPPOSED and was a practical shoo-in for re-election. There IS a base here for progressive, independent, minority and young voters that are fkng tired of these fascist, bigoted dictators using our constitution and the powers of our government to TAKE rights away and silence opposition rather than increase the rights and better the lives of the people that elect them. We want change but we aren't seeing anyone show up for that to begin. We need Democrat's to start investing in our proverbial "red states" so that we have solid options that WILL actually represent US and our state, rather than a bunch of rich entitled old white men using their money and prestige to install a "yes-man" puppet that will do as they say. Graham and Scott are perfect examples of the top 1% using their "influence" to install corrupt puppets to ensure they can further enrich themselves, retain more power, pat their ego and further subjugate the working and middle class. It's not freedom, it's fascism. We see Georgia and N. Carolina turning purple, there IS a growing progressive and independent base here, we just need someone to SHOW UP and put options on the table.
I worked in the state legislature during Scott's time there. He's a the hackiest hack whoever hacked. He'd often come by my desk, politely trying to figure out where I stood. He's 100% just another garbage human, for the money, power.
Yo udo understand that Mehdi and MSNBC are brought and paid for by the Democratic Party just like FOX is a Republican Party tool. So you're listening to left/right wing propaganda where ever you get your news from. Please don't call it "truth" or "intelligence" because that makes one think you don't really know what you're hearing or who is directing it. Just say, "Great support piece for the Party," and keep it moving.
I lived in Wilmington in the 90s and went to SC a lot- I'd completely forgotten Tim Scott on TV back then. Idk if I even realized this was the same guy.
My Gpa was a Presbyterian preacher but he would never have told other people what to do. Instead he led by example and let others make their own decisions. Love thy neighbor
It is so sad, I would like to know when America was great for blacks and the indigenous people? Any black person who voted for Trump is a dam disgrace to their race. They need to watch MLK speech and get educated on the treatment of the past.
🎯. This Scott is a glowing red flag of Rethuglicon hypocrisy. Like Ann Coulter once said openly and proudly, "Our blacks are better than their blacks!" Scott is a typical self-loathing black man--thinks his love of money makes him part of club Rethuglicon bro.
They use the N-Word when he is in the room. Tim Scott doesn’t care. He knows how they think of him. He knows they think of him as an useful Black tool but he is all about power and he is only concerned about garnering power .
Good to know that Tim Scott initially considered running as a Democrat. A reason he pivoted to Republican is that he didn't want to work his way up the ranks.
The irony is he only made a name for himself in GOP politics through affirmative action since they have almost no African Americans. If he was White he wouldn't have gone anywhere.
or working his way up in the ranks of the minority party in that state was just a long hard slog that he didn't want to bother with. Uncle Tim's path was a lot simpler.
The only interesting question about Scott is this: Does he 1) know that the people with whom he is politically aligned consider him subhuman and just doesn't care (which makes him profoundly evil), or 2) does he actually not know (which makes him profoundly stupid)?
Tim Scott is no Hershel Walker. This statement has the implication that all Black people are the same. As the old saying goes, "They all look alike." Especially in criminal cases where eyewitness identification is pivotal, whites are more likely to get it wrong when identifying a Black person. [John P. Rutledge, "They All Look Alike: the Inaccuracy of Cross-racial Identifications , 28 American Journal of Criminal Law 207-228, 211-214 (Spring 2001)(173 Footnotes Omitted)]." The inability to see the difference between two obviously different Black people is what keeps U.S jails full of innocent Black people, and keeps the Innocent Project in business. Innocent Black people have been, and continue to be, stripped of their liberty simply because "they all look alike."
The GOP may not care about the difference, (any on-board black guy may do) but look out: this guy is a seasoned professional who can talk coherently and probably doesn't have all of that baggage with paying for girlfriend's abortion and ignoring his own son and whatever. (Has been campaign-tested.) Far, far cry from Walker.
Mehdi, your journalism is priceless. You parse the overriding issue into easily understood components, and support it with irrefutable evidence. Thank you for being one of the gems on legacy media.
Ann Coulter specifically brought this to light, for all Americans to see when years ago, she said publicly, "Our blacks are better than their blacks!" Like black Rethuglicons are possessions. To be a black Rethuglicon today, part of a pro-white nationalist supporting tribe--a tribe infamous for being KKK supporters, you have serious issues with self-hatred.
This was excellent!!! As someone who knows Scott personally, this shed light on some of the things I didn't know about him. The Christian connection here in Charleston is rooted in right wing ideology, although in some places, it's not readily identifiable. By that, I mean when you first decide to go to these churches, they will tend to keep political matters at bay until the right time, then things will come to light. It could be an election: Both elections of George W Bush, and Tim Scott's own election were basically green lighted throughout the church I worked as a musician, and that he attended as a member. I have no ill will against Scott, although I strongly disagree with his politics. From when I last saw him, years ago, he seems to have morphed into the type of Christian Nationalist as many of the church members I knew were.
Scott is just another self-loathing black Rethuglicon. Ann Coulter publicly announced, "Our blacks are better than their blacks!" Only one way to take that: black Rethuglicons are possessions that rightwing tribe leadership can exploit. Who doesn't know by now Rethuglicons are the racists, pro-white nationalists, supporters of KKK today??
You can tell when a person is " religious" , they always tell you he or she is a Christian. You will know them by their fruit. Thank you for keeping us informed
@@williammartinez840 William,you got it! I would take it a step further people that have given their life to Jesus Christ are the Righteousness of God ( Christian has been given a bad name) I identify as a child of God and live up to that. Sorry, for being preachy.
The moral compass Tim need is: Love your neighbor as you love yourself. Forcing your religion down the throats of others is not love. Jesus never did that.
God is not a Sky Fairy. There is a being that is the Creator of everything in the universe, but it's not a Fairy. As far as Scott goes, I believe in the separation of church and state.
@@dianebannister4591 God is whatever he wants to be. He can be a fairy. He can be a unicorn. He can be an invisible nothing that has never existed and never shown any evidence of existing.
@@mrharry448 God, the Creator, doesn't need to prove his or her existence to anyone. All one has to do is look around everywhere and see everything that exists: people, animals, trees, flowers, plants, earth, rocks, waterways, the sky, moon sun etc. All that got here somehow. That's how I know a Supreme Being Creator exists and it doesn't have to appear to me to know it exists.
Calling him an Uncle Tom would be kind. He's way worse and exemplifies the problem with whiteness/white supremacy. He's vested in the policies, and they don't benefit the majority of Americans.
Mehdi!!!! Thank you SO much for telling the truth about these 2 black and brown republicans who do nothing for SC black and brown people….it’s so challenging to be from SC and know what we know. Tim and Nikki are both so challenging.
Ann Coulter said publicly years ago, "Our blacks are better than their blacks!" Meaning that black Rethuglicons are possessions that tribe leadership can exploit. When Herman Cain died of Covid, not one white Rethuglicon ever mentioned it! Not even to mindlessly utter their typical BS, "thoughts & prayers," to the family.
The moral compass can only come from a neutral place, not from his perspective of religion). This country is based on the diversity of many cultures and religions.
Tim Scott and Lindsey Graham, brothers from different mothers, men who share a lack of moral consistency, an inconstancy that reveals a calculator where a spine should be.
Thank you Medhi don't ever stop letting them get way with hippcprcy nonsense talk, you are one of the few along with Lawrence O'Donnell and some others that don't back down an call them out on any issue.
Tim Scott is a coward and supplicant to the interests and people who fund his campaign, lifestyle. That's why he hides from appearing anywhere he doesn't need to or only when he can be the Black face of the Party, on friendly shows.
And to be a democratic progressive radical, you smell from the top down to the bottom like a stinky scanky fish that has been dead for years oh, are we talking about the Cognitive president 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The 10 Commandments is a deeply unimpressive list that any one of us could correct and improve upon pretty quickly, and without even trying hard. How about "don't own slaves"? How about "your wife isn't a property equivalent to livestock".
Poor Uncle Tom. He clearly doesn't really know who he is, poor fellow. What a shameless fool. Thank you Medhi, thank you for doing this very important work!!!
Notice how NOT ONE Rethuglicon even mentioned black Rethuglicon Herman Cain's passing. Not even Rethuglicons typical useless BS of "thoughts & prayers." Ann Coulter publicly said years ago, "Our blacks are better than their blacks," meaning that black Rethuglicons serve as possessions for the rw tribal leaders to exploit when necessary. Who doesn't know by now that Rethuglicons are infamous for being the tribe supporting white supremacists & KKK? Tim Scott is another self-loathing black Rethuglicon.
Mulvaney's scripture choice was interesting since just a few verses down it says "He that oppresseth the poor to increase his riches, and he that giveth to the rich, shall surely come to want". I really wish they would read actually read this book that they love so much.
"Waiting on God to do, "what you yourselves doesn't want bad enough "to do your part, "put forth an effort "to better insure "these things will stand a better chance of happening, "Go ahead, "test God, "attemp to make a mockery of our Savior to prove a point, "In the end, "you if not careful, "will find yourself lost!!!
A moderate Tim Scott is the propagandist view presented in right-wing media. They are making a considerable effort to sell Christian Nationalism as "moderate." Christian Nationalism is not only unconstitutional; it is not even Christian, a mere political ideology.
Maybe not! If he's bringing home money to her, many ppl sell their soul for just that! She might be his biggest cheerleader for being part of the racist Rethuglicon, pro-white nationalists tribe.
A moral compass? Oh my....Tim and his beloved Republican party, need a lot more than a plaque featuring the Ten Commandments.....a lot more! . Sorry Tim, from what we have witnessed, that is, frankly speaking, laughable! What you and your party need Tim, .....is redemption.
They wouldn't have gifted Tim Scott a Senate seat, after Jim DeMint resigned to lead the Heritage Foundation, if he weren't fully on-board with the Republican agenda.
As a European I find it something in between funny and scary when actual representatives refer to imaginary friends as their guidance. Especially when these friends seem to be psychopaths and without compassion.
No true Christian thinks that, these folks are faking, we believe every person must choose for their self and answer to God in regard to that choice, not to man.
These cases are so sad. Everybody needs competent, compassionate, problem-solving lawmakers, and definitely African Americans. Think of the betrayal involved in supporting racist MAGA/GOP.
Thank you. I have been waiting for someone in the media to reveal Tim Scott for who he really is.
.. who is he??? Has a picture emerged?
Mehdi Hassan is excellent when it comes to exposing The Depths that people will sink to when pursuing power.
When defining the word "SELLOUT" look no further than Tim Scott!

Tim Scott is a coward and supplicant to the interests and people who fund his campaign, lifestyle. That's why he hides from appearing anywhere he doesn't need to or only when he can be the Black face of the Party, on friendly shows.
Thank you for this. Very comprehensive.
Being a moderate republican is like being a well-mannered serial killer. 🤣
Good One.
Aint that the truth of it! 😖
100%
And to be a democratic progressive radical, you smell from the top down to the bottom like a stinky scanky fish that has been dead for years oh, are we talking about the Cognitive president 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@sumiland6445 as long as the killers a Democrat like Obama they have ur support, a war criminal with a Nobel peace prize
The 10 Commandments is a deeply unimpressive list that any one of us could correct and improve upon pretty quickly, and without even trying hard.
How about "don't own slaves"? How about "your wife isn't a property equivalent to livestock".
Rock on, Mehdi!
You are one of the best journalists around! Great job as usual, keep it up!
Impressive reporting!
Reminds me of the movie 300 when the diseased seers shouted: "We must consult the Oracle!" Before accepting a bribe from Xerxes in the end.
Poor Uncle Tom.
He clearly doesn't really know who he is, poor fellow.
What a shameless fool.
Thank you Medhi, thank you for doing this very important work!!!
Notice how NOT ONE Rethuglicon even mentioned black Rethuglicon Herman Cain's passing. Not even Rethuglicons typical useless BS of "thoughts & prayers."
Ann Coulter publicly said years ago, "Our blacks are better than their blacks," meaning that black Rethuglicons serve as possessions for the rw tribal leaders to exploit when necessary.
Who doesn't know by now that Rethuglicons are infamous for being the tribe supporting white supremacists & KKK?
Tim Scott is another self-loathing black Rethuglicon.
Well, the Trump White House did call him Tom Scott.
Unfortunately, that's my congressman. I vote against him every chance I get. We don't have any strong Democrats to challenge him 🙄Uncle Ruckus.
Excellent segment as usual. Thanks, Mr Hasan. 👍
He's a willing token!
“I lean on divine wisdom” if genuine amounts to a psychosis. Scott strikes me as cynical and believes its supporters are idiots.
But they are idiots or at the very least gullible.
He sold his soul for the almighty dollar!
Tim's support of Trump - despicable (stated like Daffy Duck).
No real Christian supports Donald Trump. They need to read the New Testament again, and again, again, and then again.
Yessssssss correct….
🤣😂 I cant stop hearing it!
Mulvaney's scripture choice was interesting since just a few verses down it says "He that oppresseth the poor to increase his riches, and he that giveth to the rich, shall surely come to want". I really wish they would read actually read this book that they love so much.
Katana Convinton. No, they use the bible like a brick to throw at those who disregard their hypocricy as what it is.
The only book they read is their bank book
Just said the same thing.
I am so tired of people saying that if we pray, all of our problems will go away if we work together, all of our problems will go away
"Waiting on God to do, "what you yourselves doesn't want bad enough "to do your part, "put forth an effort "to better insure "these things will stand a better chance of happening, "Go ahead, "test God, "attemp to make a mockery of our Savior to prove a point, "In the end, "you if not careful, "will find yourself lost!!!
S.C. best two jokes Tim Scott and Lindsey Graham. Rest of the Republican's here are a clown show.
“Clown show”? The Biden administration’s 3 ring circus of hypocritical fools makes any republican look competent!
Great piece Mehdi. A phony Republican can come in any persuasion.
Who thought Tim Scott was a moderate??
Not me.
A moderate Tim Scott is the propagandist view presented in right-wing media. They are making a considerable effort to sell Christian Nationalism as "moderate." Christian Nationalism is not only unconstitutional; it is not even Christian, a mere political ideology.
Right?
Not me, he reminds me of Clarence Thomas.
@@realitycheck5902 Clarence Thomas: good comparison, indeed.
Terrific news-Analysis ... more of this focus on substantive context please!
His poor mother must be so embarrassed
Maybe not! If he's bringing home money to her, many ppl sell their soul for just that! She might be his biggest cheerleader for being part of the racist Rethuglicon, pro-white nationalists tribe.
Very embrass
She probably told him you will walk alone.
TIM SCOTT, a BLACK GOP WHITE SUPREMACIST???
''AND. A SELL OUT!!
He is a total embarrassment and his parent should be ashamed. 😭
I think Trump thought, "Uncle 'Tom' Scott" when he referred to Tim Scott as Tom.
Absolutely!
@@Xfhcgnjffhjmjvfg he's not a uncle Tom he's a Sambo
@@craigcook6233 thank you for knowing who the real villain of Uncle Tom's Cabin.
@@marvissmith4588 we must read the book. Uncle Tom gave his life Sambo did the slave owner bidding
That's how I refer to him.
Well done! 👏🏽👏🏽
This guy is brilliant, watched him in the uk, come back soon Mehdi
Mehdi is ours now!. I suppose we could share him!.
Naw homie you get him back when take from our cold dead hands!
Finally, this guy has flown under the radar of the Republican mayhem
He's still a traitor
Christian camouflage....gotta love it!
He’s a traitor with no tribe. Karma.
Thank goodness for Mehdi Hasan
Good one!
Didn't Tim Scott have an RNC presentation supporting Trump? Maybe his speech wasn't as noteworthy as Kimberly Guilfoyle's debacle of a speech.
A moral compass? Oh my....Tim and his beloved Republican party, need a lot more than a plaque featuring the Ten Commandments.....a lot more! . Sorry Tim, from what we have witnessed, that is, frankly speaking, laughable! What you and your party need Tim, .....is redemption.
And what do you have?
Pronouns and mutilating body parts?
Wow, so much morality there 🤣
@@thebilboshow168Well, unlike you, I have a brain, so sorry about your loss.
An exorcism and deprogramming is what the GOP needs
They wouldn't have gifted Tim Scott a Senate seat, after Jim DeMint resigned to lead the Heritage Foundation, if he weren't fully on-board with the Republican agenda.
It's in the Constitution , there should always be a separation of politics and religion.
As a European I find it something in between funny and scary when actual representatives refer to imaginary friends as their guidance. Especially when these friends seem to be psychopaths and without compassion.
Europeans spread Christianity throughout the word. You didn't learn that in school?
What we need are non-judgemental people who think some Sky Daddy is whom we ALL should be forced to follow.
No true Christian thinks that, these folks are faking, we believe every person must choose for their self and answer to God in regard to that choice, not to man.
These cases are so sad. Everybody needs competent, compassionate, problem-solving lawmakers, and definitely African Americans. Think of the betrayal involved in supporting racist MAGA/GOP.
