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 the news you might have missed over the weekend as well as all of today’s major headlines!
Trump’s re-election strategy is all over the place, but the hill he seems ready to die on is the culture war; passionately defending the use of the Confederate flag, protecting racist statues and more. Summer Taylor was killed protesting in Seattle Saturday, murdered by a man who drove his car through the demonstration. Broadway actor Nick Cordero passes away due to complications from Covid-19. The right-wing is confused as to how mask-wearing became political, ignoring the fact that it’s literally their own fault entirely. Fox News cropped Trump out of a picture of him alongside Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Kanye West announces he is running for president.

"President Trump spoke out against a "merciless campaign" to wipe out American history during a Fourth of July celebration at Mount Rushmore.
Why it matters: Trump's "dark and divisive" speech comes as states continue to hit new coronavirus records and a national reckoning against racial inequities pushes forward, The New York Times writes. Trump's public approval is faltering heading toward the November elections, and he made an appeal to his base at Friday's spectacle, per The Washington Post.
What Trump is saying: Trump said a "left-wing cultural revolution is designed to overthrow the American Revolution." He barely mentioned the coronavirus, which has killed nearly 130,000 Americans, the Times notes."
