Puerto Rico did NOT get 91 billion dollars in hurricane relief. Puerto Rico suffered 91b in damages, appx 3,000 people died, but received only 1b in relief. Lies from the President about American lives.
Puerto Rico got 91 Billion Dollars for the hurricane, more money than has ever been gotten for a hurricane before, & all their local politicians do is complain & ask for more money. The pols are grossly incompetent, spend the money foolishly or corruptly, & only take from USA....
Kimberly Guilfoyle is a first generation American??? Her people are from Aguadilla, PR. So is my grandfather. Puerto Ricans are American - last I checked. I’m horrified. And embarrassed as a fellow Latina. Shameful.

Amy Cooper (pronounced Karen) says she was afraid of the black man in the park? This is Christian Cooper - dog treat carrying bird watcher, board member of Audubon Society, Harvard graduate, former Marvel comic book editor and current science editor. What made him scary Amy?

. Given the history of how black women are targeted and still battle the pervasive belief that our natural hair is unprofessional, unkempt, or in some way “a statement” pls show her some grace and understanding.
Republican senators trying to smear one of the most qualified candidates to be nominated to the Supreme Court - we see you. And you will not steal our joy.
Jaime Harrison has a full plexiglass plate that he brought to this debate himself to protect against a Senator who should likely be in quarantine. Kamala’s team - pls take note.....
GOP refused to allow Pres.Obama’s nomination of Merrick Garland to go forward because of its proximity to the 2016 election -237 days. There are 46 days until the 2020 election. McConnell says he intends to push thru a nomination now. The hypocrisy is staggering.

. Had Colin participated in a solely NFL filmed event & signed a waiver giving away all legal rights, NFL could have continued to collude & put out information about his ability with no legal recourse. That’s not a workout, that’s a setup. Sound ridiculous?
I have the great honor to announce that I’ve picked
@KamalaHarris
— a fearless fighter for the little guy, and one of the country’s finest public servants — as my running mate.
My God. They are chanting about a duly elected US Congresswoman. This is the United States of America. Chants encouraged by the President of the United States. Not only is the UnAmerican. It’s dangerous to her safety.
Question - Did the Insurrection really stop? Or are people just not climbing the walls of the Capitol. If the 100 congressional members involved are still inside, and there are those laying groundwork for 2022 and 2024, isn’t the insurrection still live and in motion?🧐
I literally gasped, and so did someone in the courtroom:
"We don't know what went wrong in his young life to bring

in his khaki shorts, with no socks to cover his long, dirty toenails."
To cover his long, dirty, toenails. TF?!!

Fauci tells MarketWatch: I would not get on a plane or eat inside a restaurant. I’m listening to Fauci - the preeminent expert. No planes. No inside eating at restaurants. Got it.
My husband is Haitian. My children are Haitian. I am disgusted by the racist comments made today by

As a former prosecutor, I have never seen a case with such clear cut evidence of murder as in the Chauvin trial. A murder on video. We all saw it. The world saw it. What does it say about our society if Chauvin is acquitted? It says that Black lives don’t matter. Period.

The lies from the Trump administration continue. Pfizer sought to distance the company from Operation Warp Speed - Pfizer Dr. Jansen stating “We were never part of the Warp Speed....We have never taken any money from the U.S. government, or from anyone.”
Thanks to the tireless work of Operation Warp Speed and the partnership it struck with Pfizer, HHS & the Military in July to support distribution + logistics, Pfizer can massively scale production and nationwide delivery of +100 M doses of the vaccine! 🇺🇸
Today, we honor a hero, who embodied love and faith in his pursuit for equality: Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

They threatened to sue

In honor of their demands, here is the boat we hired, on its way to Mar-A-Lago.
And our digital billboard truck circling Trump Tower in NYC.
This 83 year old woman holds a sign that says “Defend black voices” as the marchers walk by and cheer for her. “I’m so proud of you young people,” she says.
Sick and tired of the tropes bandied about by white men labeling women, especially black women, as too ambitious, disloyal and rubbing people the wrong way (code for aggressive). Democrats need to remember that Black Women are the backbone of the party

Christianity Today, evangelical magazine founded by Billy Graham, says Trumo should be removed from office because he is “a near perfect example of a human being who is morally lost and confused."
“I am a survivor of the Tulsa race massacre. Two weeks ago, I celebrated my 107th birthday. Today, I’m visiting Washington, DC for the first time in my life. I’m here seeking justice, and I'm asking my country to acknowledge what happened in Tulsa in 1921.”

So Nikki Haley proclaims that America is not a racist country and then describes the discrimination her Indian immigrant family faced when they came to........America. 🤔
“America is not a racist country. This is personal for me," said ex-UN Ambassador Nikki Haley. "I am the proud daughter of Indian immigrants...I was a brown girl in a Black and White world. We faced discrimination and hardship, but my parents never gave in to grievance and hate."
In a deleted video obtained by VICE News, RNC speaker Abby Johnson says “statistically, my brown son is more likely to commit a violent offense over my white sons.”
My family never celebrated July 4th and I undertand now why....The rich inheritance of justice, liberty, prosperity and independence, bequeathed by your fathers, is shared by you, not by me....This Fourth July is yours, not mine. You may rejoice, I must mourn..."
This is America. Insurrectionists, White Supremacists, Racists, Confederate Statute & Flag lovers, Anti Semites, Proud Boys, Q’Anon MAGAs & others stormed the Capitol at the behest of Trump & he got away with it. Only 7 Republicans have the bravery to put country before party.
Judge Kentanji Brown Jackson is now teary eyed after over 18 hrs of testimony and being vilified by the likes of Graham, Hawley, Cotton, Cruz and Blackburn. Black excellence is terrifying to them.
Unbelievable!!
@KWPOLICE
used “scared straight” tactics on 8yo boy with special needs. He's 3.5 ft tall and 64 lbs, but they thought it was appropriate to handcuff and transport him to an adult prison for processing!! He was so small the cuffs fell off his wrists!
Throwback to 5 years ago when Tony Fauci, at 74 yo, was suiting up to treat an Ebola patient himself because he "wanted to show his staff that he wouldn't ask them to do anything he wouldn't do himself". This is what leadership looks like.
We, the NFL, condemn racism and the systematic oppression of Black People. We, the NFL, admit we were wrong for not listening to NFL players earlier and encourage all to speak out and peacefully protest. We, the NFL, believe Black Lives Matter.

Just a normal Sunday at Global Vision Bible Church as right-wing pastor Greg Locke literally screams at his congregation "do not get vaccinated" while saying that only "crack-smoking, demon-possessed leftists" think Biden is the legitimate president.
One of the most special moments for a daughter, especially a "daddy's girl" like me, is having her dad walk her down the aisle. I'm blessed to have my dad around and was able to experience that last night. Yes, we walked down the aisle to "Guantanamera".

A comment from a friend- That was like a toddler fight over the best train in the toy box. Andrea Mitchell — This was a hot mess disgrace. Jack Tapper - That was a hot mess inside in a trash bin fire inside a train wreck. Dana Bash: I’m just gonna call it. That was a shit show.
Parent of toddler in 'manipulated' Trump video forces Facebook and Twitter to remove it.

College swim team takes bathroom break on the way back from a road trip. Local deputies spot the team’s only black member, tackle him, put a gun to his head, threaten to kill him. They later claim they mistakenly thought he’d taken the bus hostage.

this morning. Capitol Police definitely greeted

protestors much differently.
"Suggesting that police were somehow complicit or racist does not seem to line up with the facts."
Pls remember Mitch McConnell is the person who decided the trial would not go forward while Trump was in office. He doesn’t get to hide from the alleged legal morass he caused. He is a coward and hypocrite. And incorrect on the law.
Fascinating that conservative political analysts are blaming Nancy Pelosi for the assassination attempt against herself & for failing to call in the National Guard. Pelosi isn’t in the military chain of command and doesn’t determine troop levels. The gaslighting doesn’t stop.
Today, we honor the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. & his fearless dedication to the civil rights movement. Dr. King's pursuit of freedom & equal opportunity ensured a brighter, more prosperous future for generations to come.

Midwin was my friend. We worked together on In Session/Court TV. She was a brilliant beautiful legal mind. I will miss her and am praying for her family and especially for her mother whom she adored and spoke of so often. Rest my dear friend. 🙏🏽
So Ivanka Trump, as an executive for the Trump organization, was also paid a consulting fee which President Trump used as a tax deduction. Ivanka also documented the fees. These arrangements have been federally prosecuted.
