The third night where Mike Pence comes in defense of his boss Donald J. Trump. |
The coronavirus infections are over 2,000 a day. The death toll is over 1,000 a day. There are over 6.8 million Americans affected by the coronavirus. There are over 200,000 Americans dead from the disease.
We have over 35 million Americans out of work. The unemployment claims so far are over 2.1 million a week. There a companies that are going out of business due to the coronavirus.
Many states are still struggling to get back to normal. Since the United States proceeded this pandemic at such a slow pace, the damage is far worse than expected. Many Americans are trying to get back to normal only to have it shut down again. Many schools are trying to open back up.
But students are being infected with the coronavirus. Athletes are being affected with coronavirus.
University of Alabama, Texas A&M University, the University of North Carolina, University of Florida and University of Arkansas have seen a huge spike in cases. Many are blamed on students refusing to follow social distancing and hosting large parties.
The Los Angeles County commissioners and city of Los Angeles have now warned AirBnb and other entities that if they host large gathering, expect the power and water to be turned off. They also are imposing strict fines on non-compliance with bars, restaurants and entertainment venues that sell alcohol after certain times.
The NFL and college football is on shaky ground and fear that a season could be lost due to the rise in coronavirus cases. The Big Five have two units postpone their seasons. One canceled theirs. And many colleges are warning that sports could be impacted by the coronavirus.
Melania Trump delivers a bland speech. |
Many of the homes and properties in the state are destroyed. Californians are now caught between a rock and a hard place. The San Francisco Bay area, the Fresno/Central Valley and NorCal have experience wildfires that killed over 50 people.
We have unrest in America. The recent shootings of Jacob Blake, Salaythis Melvin and Treyford Pellerin have sparked intense backlash against law enforcement. Then of course a mass shooting in Kenosha, Wisconsin. In the wake of the Jacob Blake shootings, a 17-year old white terrorist killed two protesters and injured one. The law didn't do anything to disarm him or neutralizing him. It was clearly 15 1/2 hours before they arrested this scumbag in Illinois. The terrorist traveled to Kenosha to start trouble. He was a part of the Proud Boys/Boogaloo Boys. Blake is still alive but he may never walk again.
The NBA teams the Milwaukee Bucks and Orlando Magic have boycotted their playoff game. They said they will not play in solidarity with Jacob Blake and the victims of the mass shooting in Kenosha.
We still have gun violence in the United States.There are 103 people killed by gun violence in the United States. Over 5,000 Americans this month alone died from gun violence. I couldn't cover every mass shooting or random act of gun violence because it's overwhelming.
Mike Pompeo delivers his endorsement of Trump from Israel while on duty. |
It was confirmed that Trump and Biden called the family of Jacob Blake.
Of course, yesterday's Republican National Convention. Night two was just as bad as night one.
The first thing that the Republican did was damage control. One of the keynote speakers was pulled at the last minute after she shared a meme link to a Q'Anon conspiracy that was anti-Semitic.
Smirking Nicholas Sandmann comes to Trump's defense. |
Jerry Falwell, Jr. who was allegedly scheduled to speak at the RNC was forced to step away from his father's university. After a sex scandal surrounded him and wife Becki, the two have decided to step down from Liberty University, a staunchly conservative Christian college. Falwell and Becki were having sex with a man who was their pool boy. Falwell claims his wife was the only one sleeping with him. But the pool boy claims that he participated in the events and watched them have sex.
Nicholas Sandmann, the former Covington, Kentucky Catholic High School student who infamously smirked at Nathan Phillips, a Native American activist who protested against Trump had a platform. Doing his video from Cincinnati, the activist had complained about how the media portrayed him and how he ended up getting an undisclosed settlement with CNN and the Washington Post after he successfully sued them for commentators criticizing him.
Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) spoke at the convention. The controversial senator shared experiences with Trump. In his statement he said that he and Trump met when he wasn't running for president. He said that Trump being "down to earth" and "just a normal guy with his own plane and helicopter . . ."
He shared a his medical trip to Guatemala to perform charity eye surgeries. He said that Trump offered money for help and came through. He said that he has forgiven Trump for the presidential campaign. Paul had criticized Trump for being a plant. He said that if Trump was the nominee, the Republicans would lose the election. Seems like he was proven wrong. He said that he and Trump don't see eye to eye on most issues but he claims he satisfied with the way the country is going.
Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron hasn't brought charges against the three dirty Louisville cops who killed Breonna Taylor. |
Former Florida Attorney General and White House impeachment lawyer Pam Bondi comes into the event with Russian active measures. She immediately goes after Biden's son Hunter for nepotism and corruption. She calls Biden a man who has 47 years of nothing. She praises Trump for his handling of the pandemic, lowering taxes and calling upon Floridians to make a choice between a nation in chaos and a country that stands with police and the American flag. A lame attempt at playing to the base. A speech worthy of Sean "Softball" Hannity.
Eric Trump counts on MAGA and conspiracy nuts to help his father. |
Mike Pompeo spoke form Jerusalem. He is the first in a long time to do a political event while doing his job as Secretary of State. He was speaking on behalf of Trump's work with the Middle East. He claims that Trump brokered peace between Israel and the United Arab Emirates. He said that he's worked hard to beat the Islamic State and is taking on China. He called Barack Obama and Joe Biden's years of diplomacy a disaster and said that if Trump wins, the world will respect the United States again. The House Democrats have launched an investigation into Pompeo. He had violated the Hatch Act and has been under scrutiny by the Inspector General for misusing staff to do errands for him and his wife.
Eric and Tiffany Trump are the products of nepotism. The son of Trump and Ivana spoke on behalf of his father. He found a way to call Joe Biden a worthless candidate. He claimed that Biden and the junk food media are protecting him. He said his father kept his promises and said that people are happier. The daughter of Trump and Marla Maples spoke on behalf of her father as well. The socialite and lawyer is progressive like Ivanka. The two used to get into Trump's ear when it came to controversial issues. Tiffany being the black sheep of the family, she got prime time space at the convention. She said that we're all MAGA but you just don't know it yet. She said that young people are more inspired by her father than Biden. The two were defining themselves as successful business leaders.
Tiffany Trump goes to bat for her father. She says that many Americans on the fence are secret Trump supporters. |
Before she spoke, Trump appeared in two videos. He pardoned Jon Ponder, a former federal intern who spent years in federal time out for bank robbery. Ponder met with the FBI agent Richard Beasley who arrested him years ago. Ponder claims that he found religion and has decided to devote his life to helping troubled Black men get an opportunity to get back on their feet. He credits Trump for allowing him to get a second chance.
Trump also held a photo-op. During the RNC, Trump played a video of him doing a naturalization for five newly sworn in American citizens. Many criticized the event as a political staging that violated terms of campaigning.
She did at least acknowledge the massive deaths from the coronavirus. She said that she and her husband do share a common bond despite the numerous allegations of him cheating on her.
"My deepest sympathy goes out to everyone who has lost a loved one, and my prayers are with those who are ill or suffering," Trump said on Tuesday. "I know many people are anxious and some feel helpless. I want you to know you are not alone."
She wants to focus on helping Americans get off opioids. She wants to focus on helping students read and write. Melania wants Americans to practice in peaceful protests and not violent outburst.
America's mom didn't mention anything about Jacob Blake or any of the victims of police violence.
She wore a tacky green dress and used the teleprompters to speak on behalf of her husband.
Some believe that Trump looked bored and wasn't really interested in her speech.
Now the third event begins. It will be the acceptance speech from Michael Richard Pence. He will accept the Republican vice presidential nominee.
Who will shine on Night Three of the Republican National Convention?

The FBI, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and U.S. Postal Inspectors have charged Brewer with insider trading. He sold 100,000 shares in a penny stock because he had inside information that the company's share price was dropping. He was a vocal supporter of Trump and sponsored the Blacks for Trump group. He also appeared on Fox News numerous times.
The awkward kiss from Trump and Melania. |
Burgess Owens was born in Columbus, Ohio.
Keith Kellogg was born in Dayton, Ohio.
Mike Pence was a conservative talk show host who had a stint in Dayton radio. He was then a congressman from Indiana and later governor of the state.
His brother Greg Pence is currently the U.S. Congressman who represents Lawrence, Richmond, Columbus, Muncie and Aurora. His district is part of the Miami Valley and Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky/Southeastern Indiana markets.
All I can tell you in real time, that 6.8 million people are infect with the coronavirus. Over 200,000 Americans have died from the coronavirus. There are over 35 million Americans unemployed in the United States. Companies are going out of business left and right. We have civil unrest in many of America's municipalities. We are less than three months away from the U.S. Elections and we're not prepared for the possibility of election tampering from foreign entities. We are not prepared for mail-in ballots or absentee ballots. We are having a food crisis due to the coronavirus.
We are really having a moment where the world is on fire and Donald J. Trump is just playing golf or rambling about how everyone who doesn't support his ass is anti-American.
The Republican National Convention is on tonight.
