D.C. Mayor On Mural: We Have To Stand Up For Our City And Nation | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Yes you do Trump wants Controle like Hitler
The whole world is scared of American Military, therefore America can never be free from Racism and They are the reason for violence worldwide.
The Brown Shirts and later Black Shirts used deplatforming, doxing, social justice, and identitarian politics to bring and keep NAZI power. Those are also currently leftist Democrat tactics.
@Prayagi Basnet Thank god we have the best military in the world I don’t see why u would think everyone is scared of our military u should be thankful. Thugs don’t like them but its obvious why
Noles fan89 The best Military is interfering in other countries internal matters and destroying others land. It’s not good to conquer others land.
@SPZ Aruba How do you enjoy making a clown of yourself in public? Because you’re a complete joke to anyone who actually knows what nazism and fascism is.
If you don’t stand up to tyranny you will be crushed by it.
Point of story: don’t try to pass a fake twenty while on drugs and police won’t be called. Many police instill pride, integrity and guts.
Dave Schultz, on your love ones neck.
@JACQUELINE OTTO I got Rolex watch. I’m protesting police brutality
If you don’t wake up to far left looney tunes propaganda, you will be left with assault on humanity.
Just who is Black Lives Matter?
They sure ain’t in my Chicago protesting 149 shooting, 19 dead, black on black.
Defund police?
How about getting your very own black police force, paid by Black Lives Matter?
Problem solved.
@Caitlyn Cruz OMG! NOT A RACIST!
Time to do away with qualified immunity
Yes and if we think the police are going to submit to any loss of their power over the citizens without a fight we are not being smart.
Especially for carrer politicians like Ilhan Omar…who are unqualified to hold office. She is a terrorist.
@Tim Podhorn Please be sure to give us an example of how she is a terrorist.
@V J prime example is blm & antifa.
DEAR RACISM, EARTH NO LONGER WANTS YOU HERE, WE ARE READY FOR PEACE ON EARTH
Everyone should watch Candace Owens video , I DO NOT support George Floyd . She is a super smart BLACK girl.
Also, I have looked up his history and it seems he really hasn’t done anything except have a family since 2007.
Is the idea of redemption that foreign to Trump supporters?
wiremantw Freedom & Liberty Forever I feel more love coming from the left than I ever have from the right on this subject. Lived as a human on this blue sphere for 49 years. Single mom so I get poverty. I work hard to provide so I get that too. I have no family to speak of, since my mom died, and my dad, though I love him, he is a hard hearted Republican, and always has been. Now my Grandpa was a Democrat. And he was the most pleasant person to be around ever accepted every one. You say it’s organized from the left I say it’s a smoke screen. The first recorded rioter, the one that busted Targets window? That undercover White cop? Naw dude this smells of right wing racism inciting riots so they can say “ your burning down your own house” blame the black community then nothing changes and it becomes cyclical.
@julio70585 There is no systemic racism against black people in America. They have the same opportunities to succeed as a white person. The fact black people can be doctors, lawyers, judges, police commissioners, mayors, governors and a black man was the US president four years ago proves that. Statistics show that more white people are killed by police than blacks again showing police brutality is not about race it’s actually more tied to a persons social economic status. The FACT is that black Americans have more opportunities and a better quality of life than white people do in Russia, Ukraine, Romania, Serbia, Bosnia, Belarus and Kosovo.
A strong black woman. Trump kryptonite. Nina or Bowser for VP. 💪🏾🤜🏾
@Freed Slave
Did you notice that Acting president tRump was wearing a latex glove on his hand when he held up that BIBLE outside of the CHURCH?
I guess the Coward in Chief was scared that if he actually touched a real BIBLE it would lead to a massive spontaneous explosion!
.
SATAN’s SPAWN?????
its a wonder bunker boy didn’t stroke out in rage
@Bob Smith then why did he not meet with the non-violent protestors and clergy in Lafayette Park rather than attacking them?
@David C the people who attempted to burn down a church were not in the park. The time to attack and apprehend rioters was the night before as it happened in real time. Please give us a link to footage of the people tryingto burn the the church and attacking those troops trump sent out wit the calvary, rubber bullets and tear gas
@Mainely The fact black people can be doctors, lawyers, judges, police commissioners, mayors, governors and a black man was the US president four years ago proves that there is no systemic racism in America. Statistics show that more white people are killed by police than blacks again showing police brutality is not about race it’s actually more tied to a persons social economic position.
Mayor Bowser gave Trump the proper response (🖕)to the Dictator-in-chief.
@Puppy power Trump turns US into shithole country, the chuds CHEEEER.
@salome Leftists have turned this country into a shithole. MORONIC LEFTISTS!
@Matt Thompson orange race attack on mostly white innocent non-violent protestors in Lafayette Park 100 %
@Matt Thompson why? What does that have to do with the topic covered in this video/
@Paul H. saying that black people’s lives matter is a problem? Why?
Washington D.C. being a state is way too overpowered…
Do it 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
Yes, but never forget about the US territory of Puerto Rico. And never forget Trump would not be POTUS if we had been allowed to vote in 2016.
@WYSO Alums 2015
That is absolutely correct. Also that is why Republicans will always deny Puerto Rico statehood.
🖕to the dictator in chief.
🖕to the racists who support Trump!
🖕to the treasonous traitors that support spawn of Satan tRUMP.
Joe Biden 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mayor Bowser is an incredable, brave, creative woman who chose to speak Truth to Power in a ginormous and permanent way!!!!
I could not be more proud of, or gtateful to her for her bold act of postivity and unity!!!
Such a powerful, postitve statement in a time when we are grossly horrified by the tiny-pawed paper tiger who stole the presidency! 💪🏾 💪🏼 💪🏿
maureen coyle Yeeeeeeeeees!!🎉💜🎉😁🦋🌺
How is he leading in economy. What is it that he has done for the economy besides provide tax break to the rich when the country was heading towards record deficit. And for those of you who claim that he built this great economy, remember Obama reconstructed a damaged economy by the Republican party, made it great and handed it to him. Just like he was handed by his father 400 million dollars. If anything Trump should be calling Obama DADDY…
@B G right, regularly presiding while black despite winning electoral and popular votes ….TWICE and being seen in public wearing brown skin with that brown skin lawyer first lady and his brown daughters. His first wife at that.
@votes- have consequences right!
Only a fool votes blue.
Anyone look at the National Debt since this man got on office?
@Ben Frank
Lord,
May you help us in November to vote the evil trump and the whole opportunistic Republican party out of power. In your Holy Name I ask thee humbly. We need you dear Lord!
In the name of Jesus,
Amen
Dictator Don doesn’t scare the mayor and I’m glad to see people outside the GOP stand up to Trump’s totalitarianism!
Would make more of an impact if people within the GOP grew a spine and stood up to him as well
I doubt they will carry through.
Well said, Mayor. A good leader.
By next week….Trump will claim he came up with the name “Black Lives Matter”.
@ford5522 So, you don’t agree with “ALL LIVES MATTER”?
@Carmelina Cappetta LMAO! Is that what the street says???? Is that what the street sign says??? I think not!
@ford5522 No, but I think it should. Don’t you?
jim gunn Trump believes in BLM more than any pandering Democrat. Blacks are being fooled. Democrats want their vote. That is all.
I will paraphrase this quote
Saying all lives matter as a response to Black Lives Matter is like saying the fire dept should spray down all the houses in the neighborhood even though only one house is on fire b/c all houses matter…. BUT your house is not the one on fire!
Racism needs to move to Russia Under dictatorship of putin .
Racism no need move. Racism everywhere. Therefore, marches everywhere!
Somebody should just punch putin right smack in his face.
Theoretically of course, because I don’t usually condone acts of kindness like that.
; )
t’rump had to cancel his golf weekend and got trolled by this Mayor. No wonder he set a new record for rage tweeting this weekend. 😡🤯
😃😆😂🤣
@G Guest We will see in november if that’s true.
At least he wasn’t on drugs and flying fake twenties! Maybe Floyd should of been golfing that night. His poor little girl, this is SAD
LOL… Bunker boy is pathetic.
@G Guest Did anyone with half a brain take him seriously before tho? 🤔😃😆
@Triton
t’rump: “I visited the bunker 2, 3 times, more like 2 and a half times?”
America: ” 🤔🤷♂️ “
Herr Trump does not like this woman or any woman of strength, that is why he married Fraulein Melanie! 🤣🤣🤣
One day Melania will have the pleasure of stepping over his inert body to begin her freedom.
me too! melanomia…
He married a hoe who used to get on her knee and bear he naked puss for a living. She is also a “yes” man just for a few bucks.
LOL AMAZING!!!
@Mirquella Santos
I really don’t care, do you?
Be Best.
I love the new plaza! I totally support Mayor Bowser’s moves here. Presidential potential!
It’s racist, don’t the lives of all those white people killed by cops matter too?
Yes to her bravado and standing up to the criminal in chief!
It is so refreshing to listen to a well-worded, articulate, on the point leader. Thank you Mayor Bowser.
G Bereterbide The mayor tagged the city street and covered up the lane markings. Brilliant.
@Phil M.
I know. Wasn’t it awesome? It truly was brilliant as you say.
: )
@Da Al The fact a black woman can be a mayor proves there is no systemic racism in America.
@Thyalwaysseek
You’re not very clever are you?
Mayor Muriel Bowser totally rocks! More American cities need Mayors like her.
The fact a black woman can be a mayor in America proves there is no systemic racism in the US.
