Massachusetts Rep. Ayanna Pressley used a derogatory racial slur to attack Counselor to the President Kellyanne Conway after Conway dared to mention her name.

“Major Meow🐱 Mashup with @SpeakerPelosi brushing back anti-humanitarian border aid fresh-women @AOC @IlhanMN @AyannaPressley @RashidaTlaib,” Conway said.

The comment was in reference to House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi mocking the Twitter celebrity of the four young representatives.

New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was the first to fire back at Pelosi, and she was followed by Rep. Rashida Tlaib, both of whom painted Pelosi as out of touch.

But it was the comment by Pressley that was the most celebrated on Twitter even though she used a racist term for white women.

“[email protected] oh hi Distraction Becky. Remember that time your boss tore babies from their mothers’ arms and threw them in cages? Yeah take a seat and keep my name out of your lying mouth,” she said.

The term “Becky” is described by Wikipedia as “a derogatory term for a white woman.After Beyoncé used the term in 2016 in the song ‘Sorry,’ on her album Lemonade (“He only want me when I’m not there / He better call Becky with the good hair”), it came to mean a ‘white girl who loves Starbucks and Uggs and is clueless about racial and social issues,’ according to the New Statesman.

“In 2019 the dictionary publisher Merriam-Webster wrote that: ‘Becky is increasingly functioning as an epithet, and being used especially to refer to a white woman who is ignorant of both her privilege and her prejudice.’

What is sad is how progressives, who claim to be anti-racism, were quick to celebrate her use of an anti-white racial slur, but conservatives fired back.

If Kellyanne Conway called you Ghetto Boomsheeka how quick would we need a national conversation on racism? You show who you truly are. A racist. — Carmine Sabia (@CarmineSabia) July 10, 2019
