YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Damage Report host John Iadarola is joined by Francesca Fiorentini, host of Newsbroke on AJ+ and The Bitchuation Room podcast, to break down all of the news you may have missed over the weekend, as well as all of today’s major headlines!
Trump retweets a video of a MAGA head shouting “White Power,” but then deletes it. Kayleigh McEnany claims Trump “did not hear that phrase” before retweeting, but that he “stands for” the people in the video, and is happy to see their “tremendous enthusiasm.” Trump and his cronies really want us to believe that the pandemic is over and they simply don’t care how many lives they put at risk while doing so. Siberia is experiencing an abnormally high number of forest fires as temperatures in the Arctic continue to surge. Kayleigh McEnany tries to gaslight you about Trump repealing the ACA, attempting to blame the Democrats for taking health coverage away from millions of Americans amidst a global pandemic. Fox News’ take on BLM is all over the place but one thing is clear: they’re using demands for equality as fuel for their “culture war” narrative.

"President Trump tweeted, "Thank you to the great people of The Villages" on Sunday morning in response to a video of protesters verbally clashing with Trump supporters — including one man who yelled "white power" while passing in a golf cart.
The latest: Trump appeared to have deleted the tweet around 11am ET Sunday, about three hours after posting it. White House spokesperson Judd Deere said in a statement: “President Trump is a big fan of The Villages. He did not hear the one statement made on the video. What he did see was tremendous enthusiasm from his many supporters.”
Why it matters: Trump has already been accused of inflaming racial tensions in the U.S. at a time of nationwide backlash over the killing of George Floyd. The White House did not respond when asked whether Trump condemned the supporter’s comment."
