Prominent conservative activist Alveda King, the niece of slain civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr., said Wednesday that Sen. Elizabeth Warren played the “race card” and used the King name on the Senate floor to divide the American people.
Ms. King, a former Georgia state representative, made the comments following the Senate’s vote Tuesday night to silence Ms. Warren after she broke chamber rules with her criticism of Sen. Jeff Sessions, President Trump’s attorney general nominee. The 49-43 vote, which broke along party lines, came after Ms. Warren quoted a letter written by MLK’s late wife, Coretta Scott King, when she objected to Mr. Sessions’ nomination to a federal judgeship in the 1980s.
Ms. King rejected Ms. Warren’s use of the King name, saying her aunt was a “very reasonable woman” who today would recognize Mr. Sessions’ record in helping the black community.

Elizabeth Warren is a nut job. I mean I get that you stand up for your beliefs on either side of the isle. But she is literally unhinged in her mind.
That's all the Democrats have left in their quiver.
How many of us would want to be judged by our actions 30-40-50 years ago? People evolve, grow and change. This was a political stunt and hope it backfires big time.
Warren is a nut job like the rest of the dems in denial
This was a black on black voter case to begin with. No matter which side anyone could have chosen, back voters were on one side.
Ever notice hwo snowflake liberals have stolen the race card from minorities ?
Does she still claim she was born in a tee-pee?
