White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Friday said Joe Biden is “proud” of UN Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield after she trashed the United States and called America’s founding documents and principles racist.
Linda Thomas-Greenfield told the National Action Network that if America is going to join the UN’s Human Rights Council, we must acknowledge our own failures.

“We have to acknowledge that we are an imperfect union and have been since the beginning,” she said.
“I’ve seen for myself how the original sin of slavery weaved white supremacy into our founding documents and principles,” she said claiming “white supremacy ” led to the killing of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery.
