Cozy: While in Washington to #FeelTheBern, #BlackLivesMatter founders meet with Valerie Jarrett

Posted at 8:28 pm on September 16, 2015 by Brett T.

As Twitchy reported yesterday, DeRay Mckesson of #BlackLivesMatter noted that the meeting he’d been promised with presidential candidate Bernie Sanders would take place today in Washington, D.C.

Not a bad crowd.

This was a surprise to us: Mckesson and Johnetta “Netta” Elzie also found time to meet with President Obama’s senior advisor, Valerie Jarrett. Selfie time!

They certainly look cozy. Now we’re even more curious about DeRay’s appearances on the White House visitor’s log in 2011 and his meeting with Zachary Russem, one-time regional field director for Obama for America. And we’re curious which candidate is next on the list for a formal meeting on the #CampaignZero agenda.
