Tuesday

Sen. Tim Scott and Rep. Byron Donalds have been basically quiet as they are the only 2 African-Americans in Congress. You do not see them standing up for their comrades.

Has anyone wondered why the Sec. of HUD is not in the room doing the Pressers in the Oval Office?

It should be obvious that TACO sees African Americans as less than a human being.
