It seems very unlikely that his niece will get published. Probably dismissed as fake truth...

One of the biggest problem/s with racism and news media, is the fact that reporters pretty much always say the word "white" or the word "black", when in fact the right thing to do is to say a "woman", or a "man". The only time that the colour of a person should be used, is if a reporter is describing details of what a woman or man, for the sake of trying to find that person etc.

I'm curious.. How many of you are wearing masks when you leave the house??

As for "black" and "white" in reporting.. I don't see an issue. Any issue is undue hyperbole due to race.. but anything to do with Trump is dripping with hyperbole.

You mean like "things are getting much better" and "There is an unruly leftist mob doing bad things."

So you now have an executive order to preserve historic monuments. Pity it was not so easy to sign an order preserving the population at large in the present growing crisis...
Hah! Maybe a round of golf will fix the problem..

Good to know that Donald thinks America is improving. I wonder how the 53000 new cases feel about this claimed improvement..

Accountants say the revelation that Donald Trump paid just $750 (£580) in federal income tax in 2016 shows that the US president is either “a very bad businessman or a tax cheat … probably both”.
see https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...-probably-both
Goes on to say...
Quote:
The New York Times said Trump paid $750 in federal income taxes in the year he won the presidency, and the same amount in his first year in the White House. It said Trump paid no income taxes at all in 10 of the previous 15 years, largely because he reported losing much more money than he made. The Times said the records revealed “chronic losses and years of tax avoidance”.
Remember folks, you get the politicians you deserve, but does anyone deserve this guy?

The poor chap has been so busy interjecting that he missed his daily glass of bleach and now has to isolate.

I wish him well.

I have spent the last five months in absolutely terrible health. I am so happy that I now know I outlived his outrageous term in office.
Not a Biden supporter but HEY!
