The African American supporters of Donald Trump, whose real names are Lynnette Hardaway and Rochelle Richardson, were recently asked to testify on online censorship of conservative voices. Diamond and Silks social media presence, particularly on Facebook, has seen what they believe is a targeted plan to limit the influence of Trump supporters. At one point, Facebook went as far as labeling the ladies page as dangerous, although the network later claimed this was a mistake. Rep. Hakeem Jeffries was the one challenging the conservative duo this week. The liberal New York congressman tried to discredit Diamond and Silk and imply that they were shills for the Trump campaign. His evidence? An SEC record showing that the presidents campaign made out a check for $1,274.94 to the two women in 2016. Were familiar with that particular lie. We see that you do look at fake news, scolded Silk. What should have happened is, you should have come to our mouth to see what exactly happened, before a false narrative was put out there about the $1,274.94, the conservative firebrand told the congressman. She went on to explain that the amount wasnt a payment, but rather a reimbursement for travel expenses they had covered out of their own pockets. There may have been a mistake from the Trump campaign when they wrote what the $1,274.94 was for. Actually, this was because we were asked to join the Women for Trump tour, Silk continued. And Ms. Laura Trump asked that our airline tickets be refunded back to us because we paid for those tickets when we went from New York to Ohio, she went on. The conservative personality also showed an email exchange that apparently confirmed this reimbursement. Weve never been paid by the Trump campaign, the duo declared. Thats when Jeffries changed tack, and seemed to imply that Diamond and Silk earning money off of an online platform they worked hard to build was somehow wrong. (Donald Trump) urged you to monetize your support for him
. began the liberal lawmaker. He urged us to monetize our platform. And theres nothing wrong with that, sharply replied Diamond. RELATED: Trump Reveals the Big-Problem Obama Told Him After the Election As you, as an African American, youre not going to make us feel guilty because were going to get out here, and were going to take advantage of these platforms and monetize. Just like everybody else. Diamond pointed out the absurdity of shaming black women for being entrepreneurial. I dont see you walking up to a white person and saying Oh, you shouldnt be monetizing that. So why are you as an African American (insisting) theres something wrong with us monetizing our platform? she asked. I understand your game, Jeffries smugly replied. Its not a game, retorted Diamond. Its particularly telling that the Democrat congressman could not even accept that Diamond and Silk are genuine in their conservative views and support for Donald Trump. The left has become such an echo chamber of identical viewpoints that in his mind, the only explanation for two conservative black women is that its some kind of game. One person at a time, the African American community is realizing that liberals only see them as a source of easy votes. The moment individuals like Diamond and Silk speak their own minds, theyre demonetized online, censored, and dismissed as out of line. That is the real game, and its finally been exposed.

They or Brasscheck or somebody sent out a video of their extended testimony. The Speaker called on a questioner "Ms. Jackson-Lee" who gave them the same treatment -- but it was a younger black female only half as ugly as the old bat who rails against Trump calling him "45"?
