CNN talking head and far-left activist Bakari Sellers read the phone numbers for Democratic Sens. Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema on live television on Monday, as part of a pressure campaign to get them to back the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.
Sinema and Manchin are notoriously level headed and non-partisan in their votes — often going against their own party, much to Sellers’ dismay.
I very much enjoyed @Bakari_Sellers live on two networks giving out Sens. Manchin and Sinema’s office numbers.

The ridiculous act came during a press conference outside the Sheriff’s Department in Elizabeth City, N.C. where a state of emergency has been declared as the family of a man killed in a police shooting gets ready to view the body camera footage.
“I want us to destroy the system that keeps putting us in situations like this,” Sellers, a former South Carolina state representative, told the crowd outside of the department.
“I want each and every one of you all to take out your phones right now and I want you to Google the numbers of Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin,” Sellers continued. “I want you to call them and ask them why they [have] not signed on to the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.”

Sellers went on to read out their phone numbers. The press conference was carried live on CNN and MSNBC.
The bill passed the House in March, but has stalled in the Senate.
