Donald J. Trump's first wife and mother of his three children, Ivana Trump passed away.
The first wife of former president Donald J. Trump and mother of Donald Trump, Jr., Ivanka Trump and Eric Trump passed away.
The former president, former lady Melania Trump, his children, President Joe Biden, First Lady Jill Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and the former president's other children Tiffany Trump and Barron Trump were informed.
Before he met Marla Maples and Melania, Trump was married to Ivana. She was 73.
The former president said she died at her home in New York City.
"Our mother was an incredible woman -- a force in business, a world-class athlete, a radiant beauty, and caring mother and friend," the Trump family said in a statement.
"Ivana Trump was a survivor. She fled from communism and embraced this country. She taught her children about grit and toughness, compassion and determination," the family said. "She will be dearly missed by her mother, her three children and ten grandchildren."
Trump and Ivana had a tumultuous relationship.
As Eric Trump walked out of his mother's apartment building Thursday afternoon, he told reporters, "It's been a very sad day."
Manhattan paramedics, responding to a call for cardiac arrest, found a 73-year-old woman in the Upper East Side apartment where Ivana Trump lived just after 12:30 p.m. Thursday, according to the FDNY. She was pronounced dead at the scene, the NYPD said.
Ivana Trump was found unconscious and unresponsive at the bottom of a set of stairs in her apartment, according to police sources. The police are investigating whether she fell and, if so, whether the fall contributed in any way to her death, the sources said. A medical examiner will determine her cause of death, police said.
In a statement on his platform Truth Social, the former president remembered Ivana as a "wonderful, beautiful, and amazing woman, who led a great and inspirational life."
"Her pride and joy were her three children, Donald Jr., Ivanka, and Eric," he wrote. "She was so proud of them, as we were all so proud of her."
Ivanka Trump remembered her mother as "brilliant, charming, passionate and wickedly funny."

"She lived life to the fullest -- never forgoing an opportunity to laugh and dance," Ivanka Trump said on Twitter while sharing a childhood photo of herself with her mother. "I will miss her forever and will keep her memory alive in our hearts always."
Ivana Trump, born Ivana Marie Zelníčková, grew up under communist rule in the former Czechoslovakia. She left in the 1970s and married Donald Trump in 1977.
She worked for years in Trump's business empire as a senior executive. She was appointed CEO of Trump's Castle, one of his hotel casinos in Atlantic City, and helped design interiors for the Grand Hyatt Hotel and Trump Tower. She also authored multiple bestselling books and created her own clothing line.
"No matter how busy I was, I had breakfast with my children every day. I sat with them at dinner every night and helped them with their homework (I loved algebra) before going out in a Versace gown to a rubber-chicken charity event," Ivana Trump wrote in her memoir, "Raising Trump." "The kids and I celebrated, traveled, and grieved together. Our bond was, and is, our most valuable possession."
Ivana and Trump divorced in 1992. Their marriage dissolved amid revelations that the former president was having an affair with Marla Maples, who would become his second wife.
In a 2017 interview with ABC News' Amy Robach, Ivana Trump said she had forgiven her former husband. She also described the formative years of raising her children with Donald Trump.
"He was a loving father, don't get me wrong, and he was a good provider, but he was not the father which would take a stroll and go to the Central Park or go play to baseball with them or something," she said. She added, when they "were about 18-years-old," "he could communicate with them, because he could start to talk business with them."
I doubt President Joe Biden is confronting Israel about American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh being killed by the country's snipers.
Almost every U.S. president since 1947 has kiss the ass of the Israeli government.
Israel, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and United Arab Emirates commit war crimes and yet the U.S. continues financial and military support for these countries.
We install fear of Russia, Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea, Mexico and Somalia.
We treat foreign leaders who oppose American exceptionalism as enemies.
The American lawmakers unapologetically support Israel and give it taxpayer money for its military and intelligence agencies. It also looks the other way when criminal acts are committed by the Israeli government. The country's police and military have been accused of human rights violations.
They dismiss the calls of concern as noise.
They look at Israel as the Jewish State but fear the Islamic State. So they vilify countries, political opponents and activists as enemies of Israel and the United States.
Israel has numerous religions but is a majority Jewish religious country.
The Israeli government has committed war crimes against the people of the Gaza Strip and West Bank. Every time it's brought attention, the American lawmakers and some media agitators dismiss it as anti-semitic attacks on Jews.
Israel and its lobbyist allies like AIPAC have a strong grip on politics and are quick to deter any criticism from activists, the United Nation and Human Rights Watch.
Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) is a movement by activists who demand the U.N. and major countries stop investing and promoting Israel. They want Israel to be held accountable for its actions.
With the U.S. formally recognizing Jerusalem as the holy capital of Israel, it has inflamed tensions. Biden is basically continuing Washed Up 45, Barack Obama, George W. Bush and past presidents.
Give Israel the right to existence. However, they still believe in the farce of a two state solution.
Israel continues to build settlements in East Jerusalem and in the West Bank.
Israel has also did targeted killings of journalists and activists who are critical of the country. Last month, Shereen Abu Aqleh was killed by Israeli forces after she reported protest near a home they bulldozed for a settlement.
Biden will likely not address this with the Israeli government and like most presidents, look the other way.
The man who impregnated a 10 year old girl in Ohio is arrested.
A sexual predator was arrested in the rape of a 10-year old Ohio girl who got pregnant and had to travel to Indiana for an abortion. The far right was downplaying it and calling it a hoax. It was real and now watch how they'll pivot from hoax to deflection and blame game.
Given how much of a high profile suspect he is, the Franklin County Sheriff wiped mugshot. He is likely in federal custody and/or on suicide watch due to the seriousness of the crime and the likelihood he may get LIFE in the iron college.
Now they will start assuming that the sexual predator is an illegal immigrant and blame people of color committing crime.
The suspect is a 27-year old man from Columbus. He was criminally charged.
Ohio's most dumbest lawmaker Rep. Karen Jordan (R-OH) thought it was all an lie. He ended up deleting the tweet but folks have receipts.
Why did Jim Jordan just delete this tweet? He would never try and cover up a sexual assault, would he?

BREAKING: Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost says there is "not a whisper" that a 10-year-old child was raped and impregnated, there has been no request for crime lab results, and that Ohio's heartbeat law would have allowed such a young girl to get an abortion in the state. pic.twitter.com/oIhJzNiq52
Indiana AG: This girl was politicized for the gain of killing more babies… The lame stream media and the fake news is right behind it. pic.twitter.com/NVxKEhP5Rr
Anyway, the whole controversy started when President Joe Biden tearfully brought up the results of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade. The monumental case was overturned by the far right extremists in the Court and it led to the state now getting into a women's personal business and meddling in a doctor's duty to perform healthcare to women in need.
Ohio has one of the dumbest Attorney Generals in state history.
He brought up the case of the 10-year old girl being force to carry a baby due to Ohio's stupid heartbeat law that Gov. Karen DeWine signed into law in 2019. The law now is in effect. The child was six weeks and three days pregnant. It appears that under this law, she was banned from having an abortion after six weeks.
The far right (uh, the noise) thought Biden was lying about it. They wanted names and "proof" that it happened. Basically, they called it a lie and tried to slam the junk food media for falling for a hoax.
The sexual predator's last known address was an apartment on Columbus' Northwest Side, was arrested Tuesday after police say he confessed to raping the child on at least two occasions. He's since been charged with rape, a felony of the first degree in Ohio.
Now Fox is putting this woman's life in danger.
Columbus police were made aware of the girl's pregnancy through a referral by Franklin County Children Services that was made by her mother on June 22, Det. Jeffrey Huhn testified Wednesday morning at the sexual predator's arraignment. On June 30, the girl underwent a medical abortion in Indianapolis, Huhn said.
Huhn also testified that DNA from the clinic in Indianapolis is being tested against samples from him, as well as the child's siblings, to confirm contribution to the aborted fetus.
Ohio Attorney General Karen Yost at first tried to cast doubt on 10-year-old rape victim case, now 'rejoices" at arrest and he will pivot to the border.
Let's make this clear, most illegal immigrants enter the country from flights. Only a handful of them go through the Southern border.
Franklin County Municipal Court Judge Cynthia Ebner said the case did not warrant the sexual predator — who is believed to be undocumented — to be held without bond.
Ebner said a high bond was necessary, however, due to the sexual predator being a possible flight risk and for the safety of the child involved. Before being arrested, Huhn and Det. David Phillips collected a saliva sample from the sexual predator, according to a probable cause statement.
Ebner set a $2 million bond for the sexual predator, who is being held in the Franklin County jail.
The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
If I wanted to have an inappropriate nickname for that little annoyance, should we call her Congresswoman Lauren Hoebert?
She was allegedly a paid escort for high profile Republicans. She was interested in politics after meeting Sen. Karen Cruz (R-TX) and Washed Up 45. On top of that, she once was a dyed hair blonde who was somewhat rational.
Rep. Karen Boebert (R-CO) and her husband own Shooters Grill, a gun-themed restaurant in the tiny town of Rifle. She gained fame by yelling obscene remarks towards Beto O'Rourke during his presidential run. Fox promoted her and the former president endorsed her. She unexpectedly won against well established lawmaker Karen Tipton.
She is a freshman lawmaker and one of the many noises you hear in the news.
Boebert, 35, a do nothing lawmaker representing Colorado's 3rd Congressional District which includes the outer suburbs of Denver, the village of Aspen, the city of Pueblo, the suburbs of Colorado Springs, the city of Grand Junction and rural Colorado. She lives in the town of Silt.
The woman has been a gadfly in Congress. She is one of 90 members who do nothing but troll and demand action from Congress despite being a lawmaker.
She has been a very active supporter of Washed Up 45 and far right politics.
It appears the politics has gotten on her landlord's nerves. He decided to end his leasing agreement with Boebert. As of today, Shooter's Grille is closed permanently.
It appears that the threats of lease cancellation goes back some years. She even admitted that her business was at the verge of closing in 2020. Boebert kept defying a state order to stay limited or closed during the coronavirus pandemic. The restaurant lost its license more than once. Also, the landlords were tired of her late payments.
Boebert served meals to customers with a pistol on her hip.
“We were like a family,” she said. “I would say Shooters, for any employee, was their life. We lived and breathed it every single day. They were a part of this culture and brand that we created in Rifle, and there was a lot of pride with that.”
In June, Boebert was told by new landlord Milken Enterprises that her lease wasn’t going to be renewed. Boebert said the letter came as a shock. She soon called the landlord but “there wasn’t really much wiggle room or anywhere to compromise unless we bought the building ourselves.”
“Within the next two hours, I had reporters reaching out to me asking me if this was true and if we were being evicted,” she said. “I said, ‘Well, we’re not being evicted. The lease is not being renewed — that’s a big difference.’”
The restaurant has no immediate plans on relocating or opening up for now.
Again, watching wildlife from a distance is safer than going near.
Can we do a Darwin Award for the most stupidest people on the planet?
You can't fix stupid!
You can't change minds!
You are completely trapped in stupid.
You are wrapped and emboldened in stupid.
Again, why do white people always treat wild animals like they're domesticated?
I would never touch a wild animal.
Alas, some people think that animals are timid when you're petting them. Nope.
A 6-year old boy was removed from life support after being in a coma. He was bitten by a venomous pit viper. The timber rattlesnake is an American snake that has venom that can kill children, the elderly and those with allergic sensitivities.
He got too close to the snake and it bit him. He was riding his bicycle. Of course, the rattlesnake has an early defense by its tail shaking in a rattling sound. The next thing would be the position pose and then a strike. Sometimes it could be a dry bite which carries a bacterial infection or the venom which could be deadly if left untreated.
Colorado boy latest victim of a deadly pit viper bite.
Simon Currat was riding his family when he spotted the animal.
A father and his two children were taking a water break in the Bluestem Prairie Open Space when his 6-year-old son ran ahead and was bitten by the snake, the station reported. The boy died a week later.
"Being a dad myself it really, really hits home," said Security Fire Battalion Chief Derek Chambers, who was among the first to respond to the call on July 5 just after 8 a.m.
Mistake No. 1 ---- the father had no cell phone to call in case of an emergency.
"As soon as the kid was bitten, the dad grabbed him and started running toward the street ... screaming for help," he told the station.
Members of his department were on scene within minutes, and a helicopter arrived shortly afterwards. The child would make it to the hospital but died days later.
The child was given anti-venom but the bite had taken its toll.
"It's hard to imagine what that family is going through," Chambers told the station.
The father didn't have a phone and made it worse by panicking.
After more than a decade at the fire station, it was his first response to a snake bite. But Chambers says sightings are common.
He says there are several things to remember if a snake were to bite you or someone you are with.
"Stay calm, try and slow down your heart rate as much as possible, leave the bite wound lower than the heart; don't elevate," he said. "Don't put a tourniquet on it and don't try and suck out the venom, but get the child or patient to a hospital as quick as possible."
On the same day that Simon was bitten, his older sister Anna suffered a sustained seizure.
The 8-year-old, who was left blind and non verbal after birth complications, was treated at the same hospital where Simon spent his last days.
The Colorado Springs Fire Department told CBS affiliate KKTV that leaving a rattlesnake bite unattended can lead to you having nausea and dizziness. Your blood pressure will also fall and your heart rate can go up.
Experts with Colorado Parks and Wildlife told the station that identifying the right snake will help hospitals apply the right anti-venom.
"The best thing to do is take a picture of it or try to get the best description of it, but make sure you can still keep your distance," said Lt. Joey Buttenwieser, Colorado Springs Fire Department. "We don't want to risk someone else getting struck or getting struck again by that snake."
A deadly adventure for boy. Bitten by a rattlesnake.
Rattlesnakes usually avoid humans, but about 8,000 people are bitten by venomous snakes in the U.S. each year, with 10 to 15 deaths, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
In 2017, a 31-year-old endurance athlete died after he was bitten by a rattlesnake in Colorado.
What to do if you are bitten by a pit viper.
1. Do not panic. It drives up the heart rate.
2. Do not suck out the venom.
3. Apply ice to the wound.
4. Make sure you keep a phone on you to contact 9-1-1.
5. Get anti-venom as soon as possible.
If you are within a snake's path. In the case of a rattlesnake, remain calm.
1. Back away from the snake if you hear the rattling of its tail.
2. Carry a shovel or a bottle of rubbing alcohol in case of defending yourself.
3. If you decapitate a pit viper, do not pick up the head. The snake can bite you.
4. Stay away from pit vipers. Do not approach them.
5. To prevent a bite, stay back 30 feet and give the pit viper its space.
It's the unfortunate cause and effect of animals and people.
I've said it before and I stand by what I say: "Wild animals are......well you know!"
If you want to be a thrill seeker, you might want to get life insurance.
The Senate finally confirms Steve Dettelbach as head of the ATF. It took over seven years but finally, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has a person to oversee the mass shootings in the United States.
Steve Dettelbach, who was a U.S. attorney in Ohio during the Obama administration, will lead a law enforcement agency tasked with overseeing firearms in the wake of numerous high-profile mass shootings and a new federal gun violence prevention law.
The successful vote was praised by gun violence prevention advocates, who spent months urging President Joe Biden to find an ATF leader after opposition from the gun lobby contributed to the sinking of a previous nominee, David Chipman, in September.
“Steve Dettelbach is a proven and effective leader who will helm ATF, catalyzing the agency’s work and helping to implement President Biden’s gun violence prevention strategy," said Kris Brown, who leads the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.
He was confirmed on a partisan 48-46 vote.
"The importance of a Senate-confirmed director cannot be overstated," Brown said, saying ATF is important to "enforcing the nation’s gun laws and reduce gun trafficking and the supply of firearms that are fueling our nation’s gun violence crisis."
Sen. Jon Tester (D-MT) said the confirmation will help implement gun laws “because he’s a law enforcement guy.”
“He’s not going to be the savior, but I think it’ll help,” he said.
Republican Sens. Karen Collins of Maine and Karen Portman of Ohio joined Democrats in voting for the nomination. Some senators missed the vote, including Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) whose office said he is working remotely this week after he tested positive for Covid.
"It's important to have somebody at the ATF," said Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) whose wife, former Rep. Gabby Giffords, survived a shooting at a constituent event in 2011 and went on to form a gun violence prevention group. "It needs that leadership," he said.
The terrorist had an opportunity to kill as many as he could.
Be warned, the video is graphic.
The Texas Department of Safety released the footage of the Robb Elementary mass shooting. The footage was slightly edited to avoid the footage of the terrorist killing children in the hallways and classrooms. It did show the cops were outgunned and too afraid to face the terrorist.
It took nearly an hour before they took out the threat.
The video, which was recorded in a hallway and obtained and edited by the Austin American-Statesman and KVUE-TV of Austin, shows the officers arriving at Robb Elementary School at 11:36 a.m. May 24, three minutes after the gunman was seen entering the school and walking down an empty hallway.
About 20 seconds after the 18-year-old gunman is seen entering the school, he turns to his left and opens fire on a classroom.
Authorities have said he fired at least 100 shots with an AR-15-style rifle into adjoining classrooms filled mostly with fourth graders.
Chillingly, a student who KVUE reported had been in the bathroom — and was just steps behind the gunman — could be seen in the video running from the gunfire after watching the initial burst of shots.
The American-Statesman reported that the student was rescued later.
About a minute later, after several officers approach the classroom, a second burst of gunfire can be heard, and an officer can be seen racing down the hall. Two others slowly follow him.
It isn't clear what agencies the officers were from. Local, state and federal agencies involved in the response didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment Tuesday evening.
In the hour that followed the second round of shots, the video shows the number of officers inside the hallway swelling.
At 12:21, several officers with tactical gear can be seen approaching the classroom, yet it isn't until 12:50 that officers enter and fatally shoot the gunman.
While officers are waiting, one can be seen rubbing what appears to be sanitizer on his hands after he crossed the hall to get to a wall-mounted dispenser.
Texas Gov. Karen Abbott told KVUE last week that the video "needs to be released" to show "exactly what happened."
In a statement Tuesday, Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steve McCraw blasted the release, saying the video should have been seen first by those hit hardest by the massacre.
"I am deeply disappointed this video was released before all of the families who were impacted that day and the community of Uvalde had the opportunity to view it," he said in a statement on the department's website.
Texas failed the victims of Robb Elementary.
In an editorial published Tuesday, the American-Statesman said it published the video "to continue to bring to light what happened at Robb Elementary, which the families and friends of the Uvalde victims have long been asking for."
At a hearing with lawmakers last month, McCraw described the response to the shooting as an "abject failure and antithetical to everything we've learned over the last two decades since the Columbine massacre."
"The only thing stopping a hallway of dedicated officers from [entering rooms] 111 and 112 was the on-scene commander who decided to place the lives of officers before the lives of children," he said.
The person state officials have identified as the commander, Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District Police Chief Pete Arredondo, told The Texas Tribune last month that he considered himself a front-line officer and not the one managing the response.
"I didn’t issue any orders," he told The Tribune. "I called for assistance and asked for an extraction tool to open" the locked classroom door.
Arredondo, who has been on leave from the school district since June 22, resigned July 2 from the seat he won this year on the Uvalde City Council.
Dallas mom to be uses the Texas law making a fetus a life as an excuse to get out of ticket.
A white (Hispanic) woman got a ticket in Dallas after being caught driving in the HOV lane of the Central Expressway (U.S. Highway 75). A Dallas County Sheriff pulled her over and her excuse was priceless. I don't know her politics but it seems like she is going to exploit the overturning of abortion rights. It might be a silent protest or a pro-life stance.
Since Roe v. Wade was overturned, she told the deputy that her fetus is considered a passenger and it should be allowed. The deputy did not buy that bullshit and cited her for unauthorized travel in the high occupancy lane. Now she is fighting the $215 fine and a Republican state lawmaker wants to back her bid.
It is the aftermath of a polarizing decision by the Supreme Court. The 6-3 decision has now allowed many states to now authorize abortion bans.
It also allowed state lawmakers to make stupid laws in regards of this.
Brandy Bottone, 32, of Plano, was pulled over June 29 after she drove in an HOV lane, or high-occupancy vehicle land, NBC-Dallas Fort Worth reported.
Bottone, who was 34 weeks pregnant at the time, told the officers that with the overturning of Roe v. Wade, her unborn child now was recognized as a living person. The U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade on June 24.
'And then I said, ‘Well [I’m] not trying to throw a political mix here, but with everything going on, this counts as a baby,'" Bottone told NBC-Dallas-Fort Worth.
Bottone told The Dallas Morning News that the officer told her he didn't "want to deal with this" and insisted that the law for HOV lanes required there to be "two persons outside of the body."
Although the penal code in Texas recognizes a fetus as a person, it appears there's no language in the state Transportation Department's code that recognizes a fetus as a person or a passenger.
Representatives for sheriff’s department and the state Transportation Department didn't immediately respond to requests for comment.
Deputies told Bottone that if she fought the ticket, it would likely be dismissed. She plans to fight the $215 ticket with the argument that her in-utero baby should count as another occupant of her vehicle.
"This has my blood boiling. How could this be fair? According to the new law, this is a life," Bottone told The Morning News. "I know this may fall on deaf ears, but as a woman, this was shocking."
Oath Keepers heard the former president's call to arms.
A former member of the Oath Keepers will testify today at the Jan. 6 Committee hearing. The hearing is dealing with the former president and his ties to far right extremists. The Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol was inspired by Washed Up 45. He whipped up a mob to overturn democracy.
Upset over his loss, the former president went to social media and cable news to promote the big lie.
The former president urged supporters to "fight like hell" and not show weakness.
Conservatives are hoping to distract from the hearing to focus on President Joe Biden. As I am posting, the noise is complaining about Dr. Jill Biden, the First Lady of the United States mentioning "breakfast tacos" for Pete's sake.
The president signed a gun reform bill, gas prices are dropping, inflation seems to be cooling off, a good jobs report and debt is down. Yet, we're talking about polls, tacos, and who will run in 2024 as the Democratic nominee if Biden decides not to run.
All noise.
Distractions from real issues like the Supreme Court trying to rollback rights.
Ignore the noise.
Vote.
The panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol siege convenes Tuesday for a public hearing probing what it calls the final phase of Washed Up 45’s multi-pronged effort to halt Joe Biden’s victory. As dozens of lawsuits and false claims of voter fraud fizzled, the former president tweeted the rally invitation, a pivotal moment, the committee said. The far-right Proud Boys, Oath Keepers and others now facing criminal charges readily answered.
“We will lay out the body of evidence that we have that talks about how the president’s tweet on the wee hours of December 19th of ‘Be there, be wild,’ was a siren call to these folks,” said one panel member, Rep. Stephanie Murphy, D-Fla., over the weekend on “Meet the Press.” In fact, the former president tweeted, “Be there, will be wild!”
Among those expected to testify is Stephen Ayres, who pleaded guilty last month to disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building. He admitted that on Jan. 2, 2021, he posted an image stating that former president was “calling on us to come back to Washington on January 6th for a big protest.” Another witness is Jason Van Tatenhove, an ally of Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes. The witnesses were confirmed by someone familiar with the testimony who spoke on condition of anonymity because the witnesses had not yet been announced.
Pearl clutching about First Lady Jill Biden mentioning tacos at Hispanic event.
The noise is zeroed in on First Lady, Dr. Jill Biden saying "breakfast tacos" to a group of Latinx supporters. This pearl clutching from the far right is certainly driven the news cycle.
Here we go again.
"YOU AIN'T BLACK!"
"WE ARE NOT TACOS!"
This is the latest distraction from low gas prices, a good jobs report, inflation decreasing and another attempt to keep Democrats from voting in the Midterms. With democracy on the line, you see all this noise is being ratcheted up by leftists, far right agitators and of course the "do something" celebrities.
Ignore the noise.
Vote.
If the Republicans get back into power, we will have another deadly insurrection which could uproot democracy. Do not allow media agitators depress the vote.
Black women know what they're talking about. They see the writing on the wall.
White leftists and their enablers are going to let Republicans win with all their noise.
I am reminded that America did not vote for a populist. They voted for a rational boring guy. The very same pearl clutching agitators who call immigrants, aliens are upset over tacos.
The person who represents the National Association of Hispanic Journalists decided to tweet a remark that went viral. The remark says she said courtesy of The White House.
Like all of you, Joe and I think about those families—and all who carry that grief—every day.
Softball Hannity whines about Biden's remarks.
When we were leaving the school, someone shouted “Do something!” And I’m proud that Joe has. He will continue to do everything he can and to call on Congress to act, including on measures that ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines.
We are committed to building a safer, healthier, more prosperous, and fair America.
And I know that Unidos is as well—and has been since the very start.
In fact, I was reminded of the transformational power of this organization when Joe awarded your longtime leader, Raul Yzaguirre, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, our country’s highest civilian honor.
Raul has dedicated his life to working for so many civil liberties: from fighting poverty to improving education to advancing voting rights. But one of the most powerful things that he did through this organization was to bring the Latino community together. Because he understood that unity is powerful. And he challenges us to be just as brave and bold.
It’s a reminder that we all need—now more than ever.
Now that I have your attention, please consider supporting the bodega man unjustly charged with murder in NYC https://t.co/Lkx9rqiAMn
A little over a month ago, I had the opportunity to give a commencement to Los Angeles City College students. The crowd was a majority Latino, but the students didn’t share one story.
There were immigrants, and first-generation Americans, and Angelenos whose families have lived on this land since long before it was called the United States. There were engineers and artists, veterans and students who are going on to four-year colleges.
They didn’t share one path or dream. But as I saw the joy in their faces, I could see that they did have one thing in common: Each of them will bring exceptional gifts and talents to their corner of our country—and will make their community stronger by being a part of it.
Yes, the Latino community is unique. But what I’ve heard from you again and again is that you want what all families want. Good schools. Good jobs. Safe neighborhoods.
You want justice and equality—the opportunity to build a better life for your families.
It’s not only what all families want; it’s what all families deserve. But we can’t get those things on our own.
Raul helped build this organization with the understanding that the diversity of this community—as distinct as the bodegas of the Bronx, as beautiful as the blossoms of Miami, and as unique as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio—is your strength.
And yet, it’s when you speak with one voice—unidos—that you find your power.
Thanks to the hard work of you and advocates across the country, we have torn down so many of the barriers that kept Latinos out of our seats of power. But your voice hasn’t always been listened to, has it?
So the unique as the breakfast tacos got NAHJ's panties in a bunch. She did not refer Latinx voters to being tacos. She was talking breakfast tacos being a part of San Antonio's culture.
Of course they responded in snarky fashion.
“NAHJ encourages Dr. Biden and her speech writing team to take the time in the future to better understand the complexities of our people and communities,” NAHJ said.
It it started from a Karen working at the far right Media Research Center.
They take a 45 minute speech by the First Lady and they clipped 45 seconds.
They end up making this the news instead of the president and first lady's commitment to diversity and openness.
Republicans are a white nationalist party. About 94% of the party is white. The party is trying to male small inroads with Hispanic and Black voters. They are trying to court them with culture wars and Biden's agenda not moving fast enough.
I am sick and tired of the noise. I am not going to allow all these phony scandals depress me from voting.
If you're outraged over tacos, wait til the Republicans take away your rights to freely protest, your right to marry, your right to film police, your right to privacy, your right to vote and your right to fair representation.
The Supreme Court will take up immigration, civil rights, filming police activity, gay marriage and state powers when it comes to redistricting in the next session.
A 6-3 decision could impact American democracy as we know it.
British distance runner Mo Farrah says he was a victim of human trafficking. He said a victim of the system in which children are sold into either slavery, sex and servitude.
Sir Mohamed Muktar Jama Farah CBE OLY (born Hussein Abdi Kahin) is a British long-distance runner. His ten global championship gold medals (four Olympic and six World titles) make him the most successful male track distance runner ever, and he is the most successful British track athlete in modern Olympic Games history.
Farah disclosed that he was brought to the U.K. by a woman he did not know using another child's name. Once there, he was forced to work for her and her family, and prevented from contacting his own.
"Despite what I said in the past, my parents never lived in the UK," Farah told the BBC.
He says the family was "torn apart" after his father was killed in the civil war when he was just four years old. Somaliland declared independence in 1991 when it broke away from war-torn Somalia, but has never been recognized as a sovereign state.
"I was separated from my mother and I was brought into the UK illegally under the name of another child called Mohamed Farah," he said in a clip of the interview.
The four-time Olympic gold medalist was either eight or nine years old when he was flown to the UK by a woman he'd never met before, he said.
Once he arrived, he says he was forced to "do housework and childcare."
Several years later, he was finally allowed to enroll in school, where he confided in a PE teacher about his situation. The teacher contacted social services and Farah moved in with a Somali foster family.
"I still missed my real family, but from that moment everything got better," he tells the BBC.
Farah, who was granted British citizenship in 2000, says running saved him from a life in servitude.
Hunter Biden has mental issues and the Republicans exploit them.

Let me remind folks, Robert Hunter Biden is not a member of the White House. He is a private citizen who has no influence on the 46th President of the United States. He is a grown ass man who makes his own decisions. Like most families, someone has a member who has used drugs. No one is perfect.
However, the far-right needs to understand that their business could be shared online as well. Don't think they're innocent and pure.
If I was religious, I would say that "God never made man a perfect entity."
Hunter is the son of President Joe Biden. He has mental health and drug issues. His personal problems are being leaked to the press. The U.S. Secret Service is aware of the videos and they are looking into this. The iCloud of the president's embattled son was hacked. The content landed on 4chan, a website for trolls and white extremists. He the son of Biden's first wife Neilia. She was killed in a car accident with her daughter Naomi. Hunter's and brother Beau (Joseph R. Biden III) were badly injured in the accident. Beau died in 2015 after suffering from brain cancer. Hunter and half-sister Ashley Biden are the children of the president. Ashley also doesn't work in the White House. She is an activist and fashion designer. They have no influence on the president.
Yet, this is what we're dealing with in the world of MAGA.
Fox, The Daily Mail and far right outlets are using it as a wedge issue to go after Biden. The Republicans are obsessed with it as well. They vow to investigate Biden and the president.
However, the U.S. Justice Department is also looking into Biden's misconduct.
Like many Americans, drug abuse has been a part of a daily life for those who struggle with depression, stress, sexual abuse and life struggles.
You probably have family members or know a person who has drug abuse issues.
Republicans, the so-called party of family values act like Hunter Biden is bigger than Washed Up 45 summoning a mob of his supporters to overthrow democracy.
So Biden is engaging in sexual activity with a prostitute and also smoking crack.
Sharing Hunter’s recent accomplishments. “My pants fell off…..3 days clean.” That sums it all up for this member of the #Biden family. Thank you 4Chan, for doing what the FBI claim they couldn’t do.👍🏼 pic.twitter.com/9LD6lR1hFD
And of course, he's the president's son and he has mental health issues, drug issues and sex addition.
He is a fucking human being.
Biden acknowledged in a statement in December 2020 that federal investigators are probing his "tax affairs." A representative for Biden said in May he has paid off all of his tax responsibilities to the IRS, but legal experts have said that wouldn't necessarily spare him any potential criminal liability.
Washed Up 45 and The New York Post tried this shit in the 2020 election. They
You know Biden forbid anyone in his campaign to go after the former president's five children. He said that he wants to be above the fray and not go into gutter politics.
Well if we're into that type of stuff. Why not talk about Vince McMahon cheating on his wife?
In the world of whataboutism, the former president slept with an adult entertainer. He sexually abuse multiple women. Washed Up, Jr. also slept with Russian prostitutes, Karen Guilfoyle, contestants from The Apprentice and is allegedly doing cocaine as well.
Karvanka and Kared Kushner both worked with the former president. Highly unethical given that she is the daughter and he's the son-in-law. They reportedly made millions.
Biden had acknowledged his troubled past. Somehow the far-right won't let his past go.
The former president's five children are a trainwreck.
