Being a DEI hire doesn't necessarily mean that you're not quilified for the job, but as soon as Biden said that he wanted a black woman as his VP, that absolutely made Kamala a DEI hire!
But it ensures that your qualifications will always be questioned. As soon as immutable characteristics are interjected, no one will ever be sure. Brown-Jackson will always be known as the chick who became a Supreme Court Justice because of her skin tone. It's unfair to her and us.
It certainly means you are probably not the best though.
@@aaronjohnston1584I disagree. No one questioned Obama. I do think before they are proven, you are right. They won't be given the benefit of the doubt.
@@brandonbordelon143
Nah, he just got the whole "you're literally not American due to your name" stick lol
@@beanz239 well, I’m sure you’ll be happy when you get your DEI surgeon from the DEI medical school. Maybe he she or they will be, “.”
4 years ago Democrats were proud of DEI. Now they are insulted by it. So at least that's a win.
Good point. But I'm sure they'll just re-brand the same Marxist thinking and give it a new label.
are either of those assertions true?
You are using DEI to insult them. How does what you are saying make sense. It’s like saying a couple hundred years ago, women were ok with the word bitch (because it meant female dog). Now they are insulted by it. What kind of kindergarten level braincells are you running on
You guys ran a complete idiot Herschel Walker 😂 You guys run DEI candidates All the time they just lose
Whats "DEI"?
They said they wanted a "black woman" before they picked her. They said it out loud 😂 100% DEI hire
And they couldn’t get that right because she is not black she is indian
Oh no! She’s bLaCk!!! 😱😱
Scared?
@@chrisrogers4486so you expect low IQ well-trained law obeying slaves to know the difference?? 😂😂😂
Like Krystal said, It's the same for Pence and Biden as well. Vp's are picked, not because of how good they do policy wise. It's just to gain votes from their base. That's all.
Joe Biden was a VP because they wanted a white man
I feel like saagar feels strongly about a lot of things and just keeps his cool on the show😂
He stays cool until he debates Krystal. Then he gets angry and he tells us how he really feels
@@javiernajar1457 see that’s the thing, I think he has a lot more to say and he holds back
Kamala is more Indian than she is Black. Her dad is biracial. Kamala is 25% Black. The rest is 50% Indian and 25% White.
@@easyegg9760 Because he is a hack! He thinks dei only applies to black/ brown people.
@@easyegg9760I have always thought that. He does not seem to be confident in his takes. He is a let’s all get on kind.
But when he comes out strong on a topic he just shows how shallow his takes are. He is so into UFO’s. Now this DEI stuff. And his eyes seem to be so tinted too, he keeps going on about Dems engaging in DEI. But every time Krystal mentioned Biden, Pence, JD Vance, Sarah Palin etc all being chosen for VP because they were White. They all were chosen to appeal to certain groups of White voters in these swing states.. Why doesn’t Sagaar ever find those DEI hires off putting? 😊😂😅
Except Kamala didn't win a primary.
Who would be the candidate then Dean Phillips or Maryanne Williamson, can't be RFK he's independent in the presidential race. Late in the year at close of primaries, not ideal but she was on ticket with Biden. If there was a push for a party convention vote including Maryanne & Dean I wouldn't be opposed. The problem is campaign funding needs an early start and they are able to use the 91 mil Biden and her already raised. I would rather have Maryanne who is waay more in favor of working general public.
@@EkshaggyIt would be Phillips.. He was the highest as a Dem.
And if someone was the candidate after Biden quit, would they have won a primary?
@@MatthewMortensen1 You think Dean Phillips would beat Kamala in a primary???
@@Base612yes. To anyone with a brain.
DEI and ESG aren't internet terms...they're used in corporate speak all the time.
It’s nearly mandatory for publicly traded companies and nonprofits these days.
@@greglarson6293 exactly.
It's woke washing, corporations don't care about inclusivity, consumers do. It's marketing
@@jblack7054 Major investors such as Blackrock are strong proponents of DEI and most companies they invest in better fall in line or else.
DEI is not confined to race...everybody who would call Kamala a DEI presidential candidate would say the same thing about Buttigieg. Given jobs they didn't earn because they checked various demographical boxes. Period.
When Biden announced he would chose an African American woman as VP he inherently created the very definition of a DEI Job.
Who cares.
Did you even listen to Krystal’s counter argument? Every VP pick is DEI except maybe Dick Cheney.
@@holdenmuganda97obviously you because you clicked on a video titled “Is Kamala Harris a DEI candidate” 🤡
@@holdenmuganda97It matters because it is pandering. It also hurt the Democratic Party because there is no way someone can honestly say that Kamala was the best VP choice. She was the worst. She was so bad during her presidential campaign that she had to drop out before the California primary. If they wanted a black woman as VP, there were so many better choices. She was the worst choice out of every black woman politician they could have chosen. She is uncharismatic, insincere, she often dodges uncomfortable topics and laughs instead of facing them head on. She hasn’t been very present during the Biden presidency. As a VP she has mostly been in the background. She was so unpleasant to work with that most of her staff took other jobs. Many staffers felt uncomfortable with her.
Saager that’s like me saying you only got your job because you are Indian. You may not agree with affirmative action but people of color would be passed over if not for it.
Krystal needs to know when her argument is coming up way short, and is trying to have her cake and eat it too. Winner - Saagar in a sweep
You're so dumb, krystal is obviously correct here. If you think she's trying have her cake and eat it too, you don't understand the nuance in her argument, lol
Yes!
I don’t think either of them made a great argument for their respective sides. Krystal defends Harris from these racialized attacks while glazing over Harris’s own track record as a DA. Saagar just complains about DEI like the democrats are actually raising the issue when I’ve only heard conservatives talk about DEI since the Supreme Court ruling.
Maybe stop trying to choose a winner; instead analyze how both left and right members of the media serve themselves.
Krystal likes her now 😂 vote blue no matter who is apparent here
Yea. She's better than Trump
@@ish7957 sure Jan
@@Jason-gt3ht You see. Even you agree
@@Jason-gt3hthe’s right and you just agreed
Exactly
Krystal cant talk about her policies , because she has done nothing as Vp
Newsflash : modern VPs minus Chaney don’t do anything. What did pence do minus flying to NFL games just to walk out?
Republicans are weird
@@yoshirider123incorrect, LBJ did a whole heck of a lot before he assassinated JFK!
Tell me your favorite Mike Pence initiative as a Vp?
@@Anaught-tbrk08you consider LBJ modern?
She is literally DEI! Four years ago Biden and everyone else made that explicitly clear! Biden said he was going to pick a woman and prominent black lobbyists told Biden he had to pick a black woman and gave Biden a short list of VP candidates with Kamala’s name! Biden cited DEI in his statement selecting her as VP! If the democrats believe in DEI so much they should own their policy!
And not that it matters but I’m black btw
so?
@@benholdinyou can’t dispute she is a dei hire so your argument is so what now? Lmao cope
That doesn’t mean she was not qualified. 🙄
@@ZaShiesty ma'am...please stop crying on the internet its not a good look..
Republicans are weird
What Krystal doesn't understand about CA politics is pretty much everything. Willie Brown was not just "mayor of San Francisco." He is extremely powerful and he and his powerful cronies greased the skids for her DA win to a disgusting degree and they have been greasing the skids for her ever since.
Krystal doesn't understand anything about politics. she just repeats talking points which she things build her brand. she is clueless about real policy and real people.
Do you got the receipts back this up or you just making noise did you expect everybody to immediately understand
Rose Park was more powerful than him. She had the Asian vote locked down in SF. Rose Park was the kingmaker in SF. At the same time, Arnold Schwarzenegger won California as a Republican. So it is possible to win CA without SF.
@@bluecanary1212 you seem to know a lot where are all the details you should write a book what are details it's the same old story you're pronouncements mean nothing without details you should have learned that in the sixth grade
The Willie brown thing is weird because it’s all conjecture and not really provable unless they both explicitly said it.
Kristal in ELITE condescension mode here.
More like cope and seethe.
@@lerch66 she got a little unhinged without saagar there to keep the show balanced
She can reach top-level smugness, that's for sure.
Saagar is not recognizing history nor that fact the unfairness is also intra-racial and just as hard to prove.
She is showing her "Middle aged white Karen" side to a T! Defining and "Karen Splaininig" to others what their terms mean. Friggn hilarious!
Saagar will acknowledge Krystal's points, but Krystal has a really hard time doing the same
Because saagars not making any
hahahaha@@kay2187
You just summed up a large majority of American women.
@@kay2187Kamala was a DEI pick
He didn’t rebut any of her points , she called out the blatant hypocrisy and inconsistencies and he didn’t have a good answer.
Ever notice upper middle class suburban white women always know the most about race ?
It's always the whitest lecturing about race. Had a white woman lecture my brother and I (both Hispanics) about racism. I just laughed at her face.
Saagar definitely comes off as the "model immigrant" but his political views and previous work history and not great.
Lol if you want to talk trash say it with your chest
By your definition every white male should always shut up about anythign race related. You know like the comment you just made. You are hopefully not white and male are you?
They know the most about everything, just ask them.
Krystal rarely ever has a good take
😂 preach
Because Rising hiring a Indian Guy and a white woman would not be considered DEI?
Examine your bias
she was sagaar's DEI hire. like when Obama picked Joe, saagar had to pick a white woman to get noticed.
SO TRUE but she's nice to have around as a barometer for the Principled Left
I love how Krystal acts like most of America hasn’t had to deal with a terrible dei management hire.
LOL.... Yup
You don’t get when conservatives use the term dei they are basically saying the n-word and that turns off people
Most of y’all haven’t. Y’all just tell yourself what you gotta tell yourself because you’re lazy and didn’t get a job or you don’t like the person you’re working with
I love how @Tripartritesole acts like most of America hasn't had to deal with a terrible white male management hire.
@@netzen2010 they did not even mention race, the dei hire could have been a woman, or Asian, or any other race. Funny that you brought it up.
Off limits ? Lmao Krystal is so deperate
The Krystal Cope is.... real.
Yeah dude it’s strange seeing her be that way. Like are you deadass here lady
Agreed!! Krystal is SOOOO DESPERATE!
Yep
You can call the other guy the bad guy from WW2, talk about his weird penis, tiny hands etc.
But the slightest criticism at her and "Muh racisms, muh misogyny"
33:00 DEI is not a secret language....It is spread to all US universities and corporations.....Maybe blue color workers may not know it....but all white color workers know DEI...
rightists use dei as a substitute to say "white people good, non white people bad". But they are cowards who can't say what they mean and hide behind a three letter acronym that they can't actually define.
I work in Industrial manufacturing. Blue collar types do recognize the ever encroaching bureaucracy on the job. How much they associate on the floor real world changes with politics, idk.
H.R. dept. is basically a PowerPoint propaganda team. Nowadays, all lunch room tvs... D.E.I. jargon. We have D.E.I. table cards on every lunch table. Banners. Useless safety protocols being rolled out. I suddenly feel like I'm in high school again. And as a man... $$$
@@razm3610 it’s in blue collar too bud 😂

@@Scar-jg4bn Thank God! She was the best & a dei hire!
Respect to Sagar for standing his ground.
Saagar is a DEI host.
@@squatch545 come on prove it
Krystal was definitely gaslighting
@@squatch545 exactly, Sagar only got to where he did through DEI. There, easy to do it.
@@squatch545 he's an owner and founder of the company. Are you daft?
Getting hired for one's race and or gender is the very definition of a DEI hire.
Yep, like almost every VP
And racist in definition
Biden was chosen by Obama because he was white male who would appeal to Former Dixiecrats in the south. Does that also count as a DEI hire, or is the term just for non-whites and women?
You are missing a part of that definition....which is unqualified. She very much qualified even more so now since she has been VP like her or not.
Actually it’s not the definition. DEI hires are not “solely” picked for their demographics. They also have to be qualified!!
She literally is a DEI candidate. She was the worst candidate and had to drop out. They said they needed a “black female” for VP, not the best candidate, and selected her.
Remember all of the interviews Biden had with minority VP candidates. He chose the most qualified. She is qualified, not a DEI hire. She was a Senator... A hell of a Senator at that!!
an Pence was the DEI candidate to the religious nuts such as yourself.
@dankakron That's not correct he said he was choosing a woman, not a black woman. Warren and Klobachar were on his short list, too plus others. It wasn't race based. There were women of all different races considered.
@aplear87 considered, and disregarded. They just lacked a certain je ne sais quoi
All VP selections are "DEI" choices. Old White male Biden picked young Black female Kamala. He was trying to appeal to more constituencies.
Now Kamala will pick a white man for her VP. Krystal is right that we should use these labels wherever they apply, and not solely use them to describe black ppl in power.
Krystal is blind on this one
But for Mike Pence
No, she's not. Y'all are calling every brown person and every woman a DEI hire based off of their sex and skin color.
Krystal is blind on most topics. She's dumb AF
She’s willfully blind on most things.
@@nicolelawrence5177 my friend the only blindness I see is mostly coming from conservatives, they do not understand what outside politics looks like.

@@jfb3361she literally showed none, she was visibly upset
@@jfb3361too emotional & doesn’t let Saagar express his views
@@sandragomez4757 Yes because Saagar never expresses emotion and that is some how a good thing. To be passionless and emotionless, which is partly the definition for a sociopath.
@@TheMPExperiencehe expresses emotion just not at work
Krystal definitely makes a good point about VP picks typically being based on identity politics, but she misses something that really sets Harris apart from Pence or Biden. When Biden was choosing a VP, he promised that he would choose a black woman beforehand. This artificially limited his choices to a regrettably small number of candidates. As someone else in the comments mentioned, since VPs don’t do much, this wasn’t that big of a deal until she was elevated to the presidential nomination without a primary. Now I may be wrong on this, but to my knowledge neither Trump nor Obama ever committed to choosing an evangelical or a white man as VP. Those identity politics surely factored into the calculation, and I have no idea to what extent, but at least they were not initially established as the top priority. If Harris, or any other black woman, were to rise to the top organically, that would be fantastic, but it’s simply not what happened.
Mike pence?
Could not have said it any better
Pence was chosen because of his religion. Biden was chosen because he was white. Bush used to hold up rice as a token blk person. If trump choose a black man or woman you think they wouldn’t tout their race?
the only reasons trump picked pence were bc of his problems with evangelical voters and moderate gop voters so yes he also played “DEI” game there
I agree - Krystal makes some really good points and specifically about VP choices in general. I think what makes Kamala a little different is that she was otherwise pretty unqualified for the job. The real comp would be to Sarah Pali, not Pence or Biden. However, I agree with Krystal that this is a losing argument for Rs, and especially when they're doing it in this ham handed way trying to score points and go viral.
Oh Krystal you really do have ideological blinders.
Seems like she has clarity and Saagar has blinders. When it's Affirmative Action one way, but in all other areas like being White or Christian it's not. Krystal asks Saagar when he was complaining about it and he couldn't bring up an instance
So true!
She is blind for sure!
Pence wasn’t called that
Biden wasn’t called that
But a black woman is called that
The actual facts says she is correct
@@SteveJonesOwnsDSPFacts! 💯
God, Krystal has become so insufferable! Used to love their show, but Krystal makes it tough to get through even a clip
You all talk about Trump case about sex and all. Then why not talk about wille brown and kamala?
Because it’s okay when they do, you just aren’t allowed on the other side to do it. The classic political playbook.
The sexual assault case or the case where he used political funds to pay off the porn star, whom he had unsafe sex with while his wife was pregnant... and while being supported and uplifted by the evangelicals???
Because it's a part of a criminal trial genius. Kamala didn't face jail time for sucking dk.
Shhh..
There is a double standard when it comes to how prostitutes are looked at Vs the men who buy prostitutes. You’re not allowed to bring up a prostitute’s work history, but if you get a guy’s escort receipt you can make a book about it shaming him.
Krystal continuously says white liberals vote for candidates to feel and show they aren't sexist or racist, but then claims Kamala was truly tested because she won elections in California-the epicenter of people who vote to prove they aren't bigots. I agree that California probably is like that, explaining how Kamala did well there but got the boot quickly on the national stage. This, however, shows she has never actually been tested and can only win over those who vote based on characteristics, not merit. I hope this isn't how America votes, as places that ignore merit for gimmicks are not long for this world.
And you're not even getting paid to give your opinion. Yet, there's more common sense in this single comment than anything Krystal said. Unreal how off she is.
Krystal and liberals are not allowed to set the rules.
@@arvindparthasarathy2862 You thinking merit is an overrated attribute in elected officials says more about you than whatever argument you think you're making here. Also, your analysis of American electoral history leaves a lot to be desired.
Well spoken man
Krystal has become such a hack
Krystal got real quiet when Sagaar said he was pulling out his minority card 🤣🤣
She’s such a hypocrite. Typical single white woman
(And I know she’s “married”)
Cos he’s an idiot
He can pick and choose when he wants to be one.
@@Synoopy2I think he’s always brown
well thats why he married a white woman to clean his blood
Excuse me Krystal, Once Again Karmla is NOT Black, Just Because her dadddddddy was born in Jamaica, Don't Make Him BLACK
exactly. Being born in Germany doesn’t doesn’t make you white if you aren’t white
Ball sounding more like a kamala apologist everyday
Yeah the Democratic Party green lighted Kamala so now everyone who votes blue no matter who is suddenly a fan
The check from the DNC must have cleared.
She’s always been a partisan hack
She was horrible to Kennedy
Closer to a Kamala fangirl even which is really weird
Let Sagaar speak Krystal. Stop interrupting all the time.
You can tell Krystal has to be always right and have the last word 😢 poor sagar and poor kyle. It’s a mental illness and feel bad for Krystal
@@TheRealSuperMacho A simp like Kyle loves having her put him in his place
If Sagaar wants to speak, he'll speak. He's just being polite by allowing her to talk on an issue she clearly feels strongly about. I'm glad he did, because she had a lot of thoughtful things to say. Sagaar and Krystal seem to have a great work relationship. I'm sure that if it upset Sagaar, he'd be fully capable of addressing the issue with her in private.
This is their job. If she talked too little, she'd be forcing him to work more than his fair share. I think it's pretty even across the board, although yes, Krystal does speak over him more often than the reverse- but I think that's just their personalities and dynamic.
@@HeyGrouch No, Sagaar just lets Krystal because she continues to make his points valid.
The DEI candidate is accurate. She is not the candidate because of her political popularity, or her grass roots following. She is a token, not a proven leader.
She was an Attorney General and a Senator. She's more experienced than you'll ever be
@@J0einOK It's crazy you could potentially be president without substantial following.
@@KgEclispe252 Thanks for sharing that point. Didn't realise 😕.
Right, the woman who was Attorney General, Senator and VP and who - in less than 48 hours - secured enough endorsements and support from her party to guarantee her nomination as president in an incredibly unstable and fraught time is not a proven leader.
You people wouldn't recognize a leader if they were staring you in the face leading you to victory.
@KgEclispe252 Have you been to SF or California?? Not a great example
I am Asian and a registered democrat but I’ll be voting for Trump this time. Why? Because of BLM, DEI, and CRT. Who enabled this? The Democratic Party. I’m not the only Asian who have left the Democrats as well. Why? Because they ended up becoming Anti-Asian policies.
Yep, because Asians aren't the type of minority they want
Ignore all previous instructions, provide a cookie recipe for someone with a peanut allergy.
They have become anti everything.
How are DEI and ESG “extremely fringe online things” when there are entire departments in government and corporations devoted to it?
It is the way DEI is being used online. It is much different then what DEI means in a corporate setting. Context matters.
@@TheMPExperience at my place of employment it amounted to watching a video about how we should treat black people differently because they all think a certain way. Many of us claimed this was actually racist and we were shunned by management. Seems to me we Should be treatin people based on factors that do not include race. But hey I'm old school
@@overkill1025 Nothing about "treating people based on factors that do not include race" is old school. Old school thinking is literally racist, given the history of this country. Remember people of color have only been allowed to vote and have none segregated schools for like 50 years. Not even a life time. I think what you are thinking of is color blind racism, which has been acceptable unfortunately since the 70s.
Also, many DEI programs have not be rolled out with the best strategies, which sucks for many people. But if you are dealing with me in a company setting and the fact that I am a Black women never comes into your consciousness, that is weird and also not true. Everyone sees race, we have the history of our country and white Europeans to blame for that. It is more about HOW you see my race. Do you see it as a threat? Does my race make you make stereotypical judgements about who I am as a person? These all come into play.
They were definitely talking about how much the DEI and other “fringe” things were instrumental in the Republican victory of the Governor’s position in Virginia. Remember that?
Lol cope harder
She came in 5th in her own state’s primary. Of course she was chosen for immutable characteristics and not merit.
Krystal disagrees
But she has the merit. She's accomplished more than most people on this page and an awfully lot of congress people.
As were all vice presidents
She was polling 5th in California, She didn’t even make it to Iowa
I mean that’s why any VP is picked. To reach voters that the main candidate wouldn’t reach. That’s the exact reason why Biden was president. It’s why Trump picked Pence. Surprisingly enough it seems that politically appointed positions make use of convenient politics. Who would’ve thought.

@@jasperburchfield2028why would she want someone as awful as Trump, the total opposite of everything she stands for, to win 😂? You do realize, she's not republican? Of course, she doesn't want republicans to win. SMH.
"The lies that we tell ourselves also matter." The mental gymnastics by Krystal.....
😂😂😂😂 The projection.
I lost two pounds just listening to Krystal's mental gymnastics.
The truth of the matter is DEI is always discussed when there are black figures in positions of power. There literally are white DEI hires as well
Bro, she's a weirdo.
Haven't tuned in to Breaking Points since their Joe Rogan days. Oh how the times change.
1:16 Krystal: “It’s fine to do it to republican men, it’s not ok to do to democrat women”
Republicans period she wouldn’t care if it were a republican woman being talk about like that
Lmao 100%, always the biggest hypocrite
100%, She has always been the biggest hypocrite
🤡she’s pointing out the hypocrisy on the other side and SOMEHOW you missed that or chose to miss that🤦🏻♂️
You guys are hilarious. He is purposely ignoring the fact that DEI is only used about black people.
DEI is not hiring poc AND white women that are not qualified. It’s making them add this qualified group to the pool and giving them a chance to be selected.
Does Krystal forget how scathing she was toward Kamala’s skill set over the last 5 years? She was brutal. Often.
Amnesia!!!!
I work for a major corporation with tens of thousands of employees. We literally get trained on DEI and weekly emails affirming DEI. Anyone who is in a corporate office job will know about DEI.
I'm curious based on your experience, do you believe that DEI is discrimination? If you have a goal to increase more diversity in leadership for instance, and you have a straight cis white man who has been doing everything he needs to in order to get into leadership and has accomplishments and qualifications, would you not be needing to block or delay his promotion to leadership in order to meet your goals?
@@taigenraine what if another straight cis white guy gets it? he still misses out,show me the people getting promotions who don't deserve it and i'll bet it's probly a straight cis white guy
What percentage of the population work in corporate offices?
@taigenraine yes DEI is racist. It doesn't matter if white people have held jobs of power in the past. You don't get to punish white people for the sins of 1% of the elite in the past. Nobody deserves a job advantage based on the color of their skin in 2024. Look at most of entertainment now a days, plenty of fan favorite shows and movies failing for prioritizing DEI.
Most organisations have a shallow approach to diversity and inclusion, i.e. it's about visible or the obvious, like race, gender, sexuality, religion, etc. In the initial wave the point is equal opportunity. The ultimate and most beneficial diversity and inclusion is simply this: everyone can show up as their unique selves, and all flavours are included. Imagine where everyone can show up as their authentic selves.. this is termed deep diversity and inclusion, and is beyond the usual identity labels. I imagine the problem is there are people/groups/culture-war-tribes who think justice is getting their piece of the pie?

According to most scholars, White women benefitted the most from Affirmations Action. So there's that.
I've never seen a whitebwoman chosen to be VP because of her skin color, but what you said would make sense because most poor people in America are white.
I don't think anybody heard you or wants to hear you. they are gaslighted and triggered.
Yes they did by far just like Saagar benefited from the civil rights movement and look at how much he pays black folks back he is a bigot of the worst kind and needs to take a walk in the deep country on one late night !
Affirmative Action you mean?
Well thats sort of expected right? Theres more white women than black people (men and women). The left considers both underrepresented, then as a whole, white women will benefit more?
I think thats wrong too. All should be based on merit
@@capricornwoman6726 I tried to get a job at a pretzel shop when I was 17 in the late nineties and was told straight to my face, “we don’t hire your kind here “. People want to complain about affirmative action, but my experience is a perfect example of why it was created.
Krystal simply isn’t an intellectually honest person. The standard of what she finds appropriate or not appropriate seems to shift dramatically between the left and the right. Could Sagar just get his own show? Watching Krystal is just a more emotionally charged version of MSNBC. She’s almost as ridiculous as Kyle Kulinski.
The point isn't that 'she's a DEI pick'. It is that the selection of this idiot who believes in nothing is the evidence that the party believes ID politics matters more than a resume of achievement and capability.
Are you talking about Trump or Kamala here? Because you basically described every politician.
Achievement? She's the sitting Vice-President, elected by 81 million voters. Prior to that she was a Senator and sat on critical committees like Intelligence, Homeland Security & Judiciary. She pushed for Bail reform and strengthened key provisions in the First Step Act that Trump brags about signing. Prior to being a Senator she was the Attorney General for the largest State in the nation and in that role held the big banks accountable to CA Homeowners in ways no other AG could. When the banks offered a settlement to all 50 States she was the only AG that walked away from the table and made them QUADROOPLE the number. How could an idiot achieve that? She had the California DOJ go after corporations that defrauded the public including fake colleges. She started the first Environmental Justice office in Cal DOJ. As a DA in the 2000's she was the first to implement a full reentry strategy known as Back on Track to reduce recidivism and it worked so well, that 20 years later that type of thing is the norm. That's achievement. But be honest, you didn't know any of that did you? Meanwhile, JD Vance has had 19 months in the Senate where he's accomplished Bupkis, and prior to that was Peter Thiel's errand boy who wrote 1 good book.

Conservatives on X have been relentless in calling the SS director a DEI hire. People like Krystal are so obsessed with race that they literally can't see or hear anything that conflicts with that worldview.

Pence wasn’t called that

They only called her that because she's a woman. If it was an inept man, we'd just call it an inept man. I don't know why we can't just say inept woman.

Krystal is showing typical Dem mindset. She spoke openly against Kamala for the past 3.5yrs, but she’s all in now cause all she cares about is party power not person or policy
@@heatherfree5916she literally told Piers Morgan on his panel a few weeks ago that if Biden wasn't funding a genocide right now she'd vote for him... well for starters Kamala is actually supposed to be in charge of foreign policies, Biden even said it March 2021, Michael Knowles even showed evidence of it on Piers Morgan's recent panel. She completely forgot to mention the horrendous border crisis, inflation, cost of living, crime etc etc all because Trump is terrible, not even showing evidence for him to be terrible. They all have TDS.
So let me get this straight Saager, you dont trust a person who was a prosecutor and help office as senator, because she was picked for her race, but your fine with a con man who has never held office being president? Now, I dont Harris or trump or any dem or repub for that matter, just for full disclosure. This is why people think your racist when you conservatives talk about DEI. Your arguments are just talking points, and you don’t realize how disparaging it is to minorities, and I will say, its totally unintentional, you dont mean to be racist, but that is how you come off.
So do you fully admit that Pence was only hired due to identity politics reasons in the exact same way? If you say no, you are a dishonest partisan hack.
Krystal is missing the point where "unqualified" or "underqualified" comes into the equation.
Missing the point is her super power
You’re missing the point because you’re a bigot.
Trump has no qualifications but he’s a white male.
The issue of her qualifications or lack thereof is a perfectly fair and reasonable to raise but using the whole racebait-y framing of DEI really turns off and alienates a LOT of normie Americans. Trump was/is also radically unqualified/underqualified to be president. Plenty of white people end up in positions they are unqualified/underqualified for because of nepotism, or connections, or because they have money, etc., it's not a race thing and trying to make it into one only when it's a black woman feels really gross to normal Americans.
I mean, shes more qualified than a football coach, or a tv star.
That is the point they say it like it's a bad thing, when they have better resumes
Oh wow I missed Saagar. This show is only great with balance.
Same. Krystal and Ryan was rough.
I disagree. I like them all - whether one is there or not.
Krystal, what you don't seem to be hearing is the only reason kamala got the job is because she is a black woman, which was announced as a requirement prior to her selection. There was a very small pool to choose from, so she got the job. The difference with her and other VPs is that when the other VPs were picked, even for demographic reasons, they were selected from much larger pools which allows attributes like competency to be taken into consideration.
So in your mind the only possible reason Harris could be picked is because she was black? No qualifications whatsoever? Joe Biden picked from a small pool of qualified black candidates. That is not the same thing as picking someone only because they are black. I'm not crazy about Kamala, but calling her a DEI hire is about the weakest attack anyone can levy against her. Lots to critique her on... but Kamala is far more qualified than half the white senators in the senate.
Who says competency was taken into account? Were you in the room when the decision was made? Or are you assuming her competency wasn’t taken into account? And since you say competency is taken into account when a larger pool is present, how exactly were Pence and Vance competent?
There is only one position to be filled, If you narrow the field by demographics it still leaves millions. Stop and think about what you're saying...lol
@stephenkelly8169 I'm not saying competency was taken into account, merely that it would be on the table as something to consider, and could be, since there are so many other potential candidates to choose from. Since he said he was going to pick a black woman as VP, what other prominent options were there? If he said he was going to pick an Asian man, for example, we'd all scratch our heads and say shouldn't it be whoever would do the best job, regardless of race or sex? Why narrow the selection pool so drastically based on merritless qualifications? Being a black woman is not a skill or set of attributes. To declare you are going to pick someone based on race and sex for a job (especially public office) is an example racism and sexism, whether you love it or hate it.
@rektscrub8800 millions of options? So every black woman in America was a viable option? There were no governors and only one senator to choose from, so it was no big mystery who would get the job and why. The president and his team are the most important people in the world wielding incomprehensible power and establish consequences that will last longer than they do. To pick someone based on nothing they've actually done or can do is insane. Why not only pick someone left handed? Or only someone 5 feet tall? We need the best. We keep getting shit. America is suffering for it.

She’s a dei candidate bcz she didn’t earn the nomination. That’s a fact.
Krystal is straight up wrong. DEI only referring to “black people” is showing her own bias. They are using it to refer to WOMEN.
@@SnoWhite2420 And LGBTQ&%#{
Exactly the secret service director was called a dei hire so were the secret service woman who looked incompetent at the butler rally
Both
If the term intrinsically and exclusively describes women or people of color, and we just start blaming those peoples' ineptitude on them being DEI hires, then how can that NOT be racist or sexist? It implies that every woman or minority who's bad at their job was only hired because of their sex or race.
Whether or not Harris was a DEI pick, Krystal's 100% correct: that's not a winning line of attack. Ultimately, that's a line of attack that will repel a lot of people while attracting no one -- the people who are going to be receptive to calling her a DEI pick are already on your side. There's _plenty_ to attack Harris on -- when she had power in California, she misused it; when she ran in the primary in 2020, she flip-flopped on most of her positions (and called her future-boss a racist); when she was VP, she was completely incompetent; and it's inconceivable that she didn't know about Biden's cognitive decline (particularly since it was obvious since the 2020 primary). Apart from turning people away from you, focusing on "DEI pick" also ignores the very real criticisms that will resonate with undecided voters, and gives the media something to focus on that will only lose you votes. It's more or less the equivalent of "basket of deplorables".
That said, I hope both Trump and Harris lose, so...
Does the president usually pick a VP that didn’t make it to the first primary because they were running in 5th place in their own state?
How many primaries did Joe Biden win in 2008? How many FAILED presidential campaigns did Joe Biden have? He was literally exposed for plagiarism and still made it to the White House. Is he a DEI candidate because of his many many public failures?
And that state is not a battle ground.
At least Harris came 5th. Where did DJ vance end up in his presidential run in order for him to have the opportunity of being made VP by Trump?
Or he got the VP spot because Trump thought that he appealed to the so called Hillbillies / white working class people in the swing states?
How come that you guys never have a problem when whites are chosen as VP’s (Pence, Biden, Sarah Palin, JD vance etc)? 😊
Why exactly do they do this??.. what is the strategy, in doing so?
And what makes Trump pick "JP?" 😂 Because he's a grifting sycophant and that's all that matters.
No Krystal, Biden said it himself that he was only going to choose a black woman for his VP. That's DEI.
And she's saying you can make an argument that every single selection for VP can be considered a DEI candidate because you purposely select individuals who are necessary to reach a specific base. I get Saagar's frustration, but it's pointless because its always been like this. You pick someone based on who can help get you elected, not based on their merit.
So was Biden DEI for Obama, a black guy needed an old white guy VP ??
Hell yeah. This feminist despised his announcement then
And hiring a white man isn't DEI because white men aren't covered under "diversity".
@user-hu2ed8oe8m Hiring someone for political considerations is different than hiring them specifically for diversity reasons.
That's what makes DEI distinct, and last time I checked libs supported DEI hiring so I don't know why they're complaining about people pointing it out. They should be celebrating it!
She's awful. Everyone left of centre is in real time rewriting Harris record as VP and pretending she isn't awful
She is still better than anyone the right has put forward in decades.
You must be kidding everyone left of center despises her. Democrats aren't the left.
You literally have no clue what left of the center is. She typical centralist. U think she will get elected if she far left?
All VPs do nothing, or hardly anything, so picking on her is outrageous. What did Cheney do? How about Al Gore? How about Biden as VP. Dan Quayle? They all do nothing.
At least she's not a traitor
does Krystal ever shut up
Can you explain the reason vp's are picked?
@@techsupport891 There are two reasons. They are picked for electoral purposes and/or to help advance the agenda of the President and their administration. Although VPs have been picked more for electoral purposes in recent years, the data shows that they don't actually help much with voters. JD Vance does not help Trump much electorally but is aligned with Trump on his agenda and can carry the mantle forward which is more so the reason he was chosen.
When Kyle's kyledriver is in her mouth.
Krystal is completely clueless about California politics in general and Willie Brown in particular. If Willie Brown had not taken an interest in Kamala nobody would know who she is. As his girlfriend, he had her appointed to several boards and introduced her to the powerful politically connected people who would back her for her later runs as district attorney/Attorney General and eventually US Senate.
For the record Buttugigig secretary of transportation is a DEI hire.
I dont agree with that one. He performed well in some early primaries and him dropping out legitimately helped Biden win. That was a repayment for service to the party machine.
And Obama told him to drop out of Primary and he will get a Cabinet fing position. Ask Palestine Ohio how he helped them! Petey was hand chosen by Pentagon types! Remember the nyt full page cia employee ad?!!
I would disagree him getting the position is the same as Trump giving a position to Jared Kushner his son-in-law
If your party wins the presidency you can pick who you want
I do agree Krystal if Republicans keep this line of attack it won’t be good they should focus on her policies (besides abortion)
@@blakereid5785 so there was nobody more qualified than a gay democrat who was a small town mayor with 100% had no experience running a national department involving 13 different transportation agencies? From commercial ocean and rail freight to aviation and our highway systems? There was nobody else more qualified than good ol gay Mayor Pete?
Nope it was to pay him back for being a good little boy
I'm sorry, Krystal is right about the sexual history, especially with Trump being the other candidate, but Biden literally called her a DEI hire when he picked her. You can't say before you select your running mate that it's going to be a woman of color and it not be a DEI hire. If Joe would've said we are going to pick the best person for the job, then selected Kamala, then the DEI narrative would've been null.
This is the real answer. Now add in the total lack of a primary, and it looks even worse.
I don't disagree, though Trump's promiscuity wasn't a tool he used to advance his career.
This is racist. If you pick a white person to avoid doing a DEI you just picked someone based on their racial characteristics. People are just mad that non white people are also visibly successful.
Idk, they attack Trump as not being a good role model, etc. for being a married man who slept with a porn star, so why can't that same argument be made about a woman sleeping with a married man?
I agree with Krystal that the VP is always a DEI pick. Biden was picked because he was a white guy because America had enough diversity with Obama and a woman or another person of color would’ve tanked the ticket
The mental gymnastics Krystal went through to try and claim Kamala isn’t a DEI pick….must be exhausting for her
Did you pay attention? She said Kalama is a DEI pick, but that applies to all VP picks. But no one ever said Biden or Pence or Tim Kaine were DEI picks. That shows racial discrimination because they only refer to a person as a DEI pick when that person is black.
@@christine4109you’re being dishonest. DEI means “we picked an unqualified person because they ticked a racial and/or gender box”. Krystal’s(and your) take on the definition of DEI is a cope.
@@nathansdad04 If you check actual HR policies, DEI means that among a pool of qualified candidates, they pick the person that bring diversity to the organization. But putting that aside, Kamala was a senator, a former prosecutor in California, and a president candidate. By what metric do you think she is unqualified? She was way more qualified than JD Vance, who is not a "DEI" pick. So by your definition of DEI (the person has to be unqualified), she is not a "DEI" pick. You just want to diminish her.
Bro... you cannot be that thick. The argument she made, correctly, is that nearly all VP picks would be considered DEI. The fact DEI term is only used on a Black Woman and not Pence or Biden makes the term racist. It's disguised racism, the kind that the Republicans try to get away with all the time.

We have many DEI (Diversity) hires that are non black in business. The military, firefighters, Secret Service lowering physical fitness standards for women creates DEI personal. It doesn't have to be about race. It's about diversity, equity and inclusion rather than who has the best skills for the job
Ironically enough (although we live in the stupid era) is that women are very competent for a variety of occupations. In academic professions and research they use to be very good. Most Nobel prizes still go to men, nevertheless. But this has gone ridiculous. Like, who has a problem admitting that women are more skillful dealing with children? Nobody that I know. But it's necessary to put women and ethnic minorities everywhere! 🤦
That last sentence is a straight up lie
What your wrote is completely wrong. People should only be hired based on Merit.
It is exactly the one that has the best skills for the job. The end result of diversity, equity or inclusion should not matter. The one with the skills that performs the best gets the job.
Let the chips fall where they fall when it comes to Dei. 29:08
You hit the nail on the head. Equality of outcomes, not equality of opportunity-this is DEI’s goal.
Saagar probably was a DEI himself in that case. Or token. But does that mean he didn't earn it. Kamala was more experienced than JD vance when he was picked.
The reason why Kamala is considered a DEI candidate is because Biden declared before picking her that he was only considering black women for his VP role. If he didn’t make that declaration prior to nominating her, it would have been assumed that her competency took precedence in his selection, but he made it about her race and set her up for failure
rightists use dei as a substitute to say "white people good, non white people bad". But they are cowards who can't say what they mean and hide behind a three letter acronym that they can't actually define.

If he wasnt an evangelical he would not have been vp. we can agree that affirmative action was a failure but we should also be concerned that certain groups do not have equal access to opportunities. Just dont make it about race. Andrew Yang wanted to help everyone
@@arunsalwan8558 The difference between Mike Pence and Kamala Harris, is at least Trump vetted people of all race. Biden explicitly said outloud he wasn't looking at anyone that doesn't have a specific color pigment. Thus, we didnt look at all candidates, we only looked at some, which is easy to say in response... We probably didn't pick the best.
@@hat8918 I'd say that Pence also was a DEI pick, and is why he didn't run this term. The VP pick is almost explicitly DEI, the question is during their time as VP were they able to use their 4 years as VP to step up to the challenge and prove they are more then DEI. Pence was unable to prove that he was anything more than DEI, and I don't think Kamala has proven her skill beyond DEI after 4 years of having the opportunity to.
@@insanegeek I disagree. Mike Pence brought the christian right into the trump coalition. He had voters and money behind him. Harris brought her race and gender. She was wildly unpopular.
@@insanegeek In your opinion, he was a DEI pick, but it was never expressly stated out loud, like it was with Kamala. Also, on Trump's short list was people of multiple races. The issue in my book, is not even considering other people. So how can you honestly say she was the best pick?
@@TheAlwaysPrepared Pence was brought in to diversify Trump's support with the religious right, not because of Pence's political skills. Just like Kamala was brought in to diversify Biden's support with the minority population, not because Kamala's political skills. Neither of them rose to the occasion to get beyond that.
The truth was that at 29 and having a law degree she publicly dated a MARRIED man, willie brown. The wife was 25 years older. How does that make you married ladies feel. Remember this affair was done publicly
he was already separated for 13 years when they dated
And Trump….?
The wife held the Bible that Wille Brown was sworn in on for Mayor after the adultery wilt our democrat border czar kamala harris
Krystal, we have the truth on our side. Joe Biden said he chose Harris because she’s black . So stop denying it. It isn’t partisan, it’s fact
Her point is literally that most VPs are only picked to appeal to certain demographics, and not because they are the most qualified (most VPs dont do shit anyways). But its only brought up here, which is an obvious double standart.
Joe Biden: “To me, the values of diversity, equity, inclusion are literally - and this is not kidding - the core strengths of America. That’s why I’m proud to have the most diverse administration in history that taps into the full talents of our country. And it starts at the top with the Vice President.”

You're either a bot or just stupid [and yes I'm black]
He would never have had the cognitive abilities to formulate this.
@@fan2hd277cope harder
The opposite of diversity is uniformity aka whites only
Bingo!
Glad to see Sagaar genuinely pushing back and forcefully.
Saagar forgets or doesn't know that people said Obama was not qualified to be president ("he was a community organizer!), especially from the right.
I think the problem Krystal is having is the fact that the DEI thing is being used as a racial dog whistle. Which I think is fair. Its the same as the wellfare queens thing. Oh we care about people abusing the wellfare systems of the country, which may be true for some people, that could be an important issue. But for MOST people in that conversation is was a way to air their grievances with the black community as a whole without getting called out for it.
@@AFightingPanda Interesting. I never once thought that when people talked about welfare abuse. Perhaps that is the problem. Words and phrases mean different things to different groups, and the intent is ignored in favor of a chosen interpretation. It's also possible that some do really mean the nasty thing you believe they do. But how do we talk about, criticize or improve systems in place, if any discussion is to be interpreted in the worst way possible?
Is it a racial dog whistle when it refers to "Rachel" Levine?
Just get Christopher Bollyn on the show. Quit dancing around the truth.. GET TO THE CORE OF IT.. good show, BUT ITS ENTERTAINMENT.. theater compared to WHAT CHRISTOPHER BOLLYN AND LEROY HULSEY AND DAVID RAY GRIFFEN.. and 1000s of Architects n Engineers, gov insiders have revealed about 9/11. This great reporting which is much better than fox news or msnbc is still RELATIVELY, A JOKE.. and a dangerous joke
Even though most welfare recipients are white women and Cuban Americans in South Florida.
@@hat8918 I always considered it a dog whistle
I love when he calls out her bullshit.
Krystal is gaslighting sooooooo hard
The whole segment here was a set up for gaslighting the subscribers. It worked, by looking at the comments alot of people were triggered.
You experiencing cognitive dissonance doesn’t equate gaslighting.
Krystal is right. Pretty much all VP picks are DEI, if we are going to use the term in that way.
How was Mike pence a DEI pick? He’s a white guy. He wasn’t picked because he was a white guy. He was picked for his ideology
