    Up next, I will use Joe Biden's words - from the 80s, 90s, the 2000s, the 2010s on how he crafted and built the modern systems, structures, and policies of mass incarceration. And I will let you hear from a brave voice that says he had to repent to God for supporting the bill.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/1129114785860194313 …

    Twice this week @JoeBiden has actually had the nerve to brag about his 1994 Crime Bill. I was surprised. Then, he crossed several lines and actually started lying about it. In just a few minutes I'll have my public retort to Joe Biden, the Father of Mass Incarceration.

        So easy to use Joe's words against him. Plaster candidate is going to crack in days against Trump. Why are we even considering putting this guy up for the Dems?pic.twitter.com/CcYywi18X2

        Because Democratic voters love to get led on a leash by the donor class. Biden is the donor class, and people are just too uninformed/lazy to fight it.

        Exactly, yet Black folks are quick to jump on his bandwagon. @JoeBiden is not @BarackObama despite their seemingly close friendship. ...and lets not forget about Anita Hill.

        Defeating Trump is the most important thing we can do. If Joe wins the nomination he’s our man and I can guarantee that most of the other candidates will play a huge role in his administration and have more power in oversight if democrats take control. #ThursdayThoughts

        Yes that’s the ultimate goal. But fighting Joe Biden in the primary is the goal right now because there will be no progressive policy that he will advocate for.

        I’m for whoever comes out on top. There’s going to be so much damage to repair especially internationally that progress will take time. A Biden administration with a solid VP and competent democrats filling secretary posts will be a very tolerable start. IMHO. ✌🏻

        so condemn Joe b/c U want Sanders. At least Joe tried to put an end to the Hooligans. They had every city on their knees and their members kept growing. In Hindsight we all can see the wrong but 40 years ago it was a welcome to all you're too young to know what it was like

        It’s would help your case a lot if you posted/tweeted in a thread Biden’s comments on the crime bill at the time vs Sander’s comments at that same time. People lack context on this

        At this point I don’t believe this is Shaun King actually doing the tweeting here.
