Quit pushing false narratives @CNNPolitics Health disparities r largely genetic. Studies to include all races & separate environment from genetic. Pain medications is not a disparity. @CNN is the worst promoting racial divisions. FredW had Dr Davis on.
You also keep pushing narrative that black & brown don't trust medical care. NOT when they have BOTH health insurance AND access to care. It's largely genetic & environmental other than ins & access. I have watched AfrAms flock to health centers for care when available. No fear.
I've worked in/around health care systems most of my life, professionally 30 years. No fear in African Americans IF they have insurance & access to health care. They go to get it! That is an old canard passed around in the press echo chambers which is no longer true. @CNNPolitics
There is firm documentation of people on Medicaid - black/white receiving large quantities of Rx opioids sell them on the streets. That is from federal DEA & LE databases. That is NOT discrimination or disparity. I have work w Drs in a pain clinic & there are indicators 4 this.

@realDonaldTrump You can sign the funding bill. @MickMulvaney put restrictions into the CFR that expressly limit how federal funds can be spent by for profit, nonprofits & institutions, states and localities - only stated purposes, no slush funds.@senatemajldr @larry_kudlow
I know federal funding guidelines well. My read on @MickMulvaney act, an excellent streamlining of fed funding regs, is that they apply to all federal funding to states, localities, for/non profits. Specific FARS DFARS required in contracts. Get lawyers to check @larry_kudlow
These regs were contained in three separate funding documents at OMB. Mick put them into the CFR while streamlining regs @realDonaldTrump @larry_kudlow @MickMulvaney @senatemajldr I think that covers ANY non related/secondary expenditures of fed funds by state/local recipients.

@RTDMPW Your assertions about what Virginians taught, believed rely on inaccurate reports like the one on Virginia textbooks based on a magazine article written by nonVirginians about what they WANT to infer about this Commonwealth to gain some sense of power by disparaging VA
2 You viciously assert that Richmond & Virginians deny slavery, hide it. I am a witness to the history about which you & Wilson claim to know, have been in #RVA 5 decades. I need to describe an eye witness account of RVA history. Hatred is not just the purview of Trump MAGAhats
3. I had the 4th grade text, which showed 1619 events, including first Africans in VA shown bound together as they disembarked the ship atJamestown. No one glossed over the fact they were bound. Other assertions in that article are incorrect. People were called servants or family

The #BiggestLie Don't believe these @DonScott757 marijuana is NOT a harmless drug AND black communities suffer MOST #SocialJustice #FactsMatter @MercuryVirginia learnaboutsam.org/industry-profi…
Read these reports and view videos from those with the experience of legalization -In poor neighborhoods of Denver, there are pot shops for every 47 residents. #SocialJustice is NOT legalizing pot but decriminalize, as GA did last spring. @DonScott757
IN COLORADO, DRUGGED DRIVING WENT FROM KILLING ROUGHLY ONE PERSON EVERY 6.5 DAYS TO NOW EVERY 2.5 DAYS, SINCE LEGALIZATION WAS PASSED @DonScott757 @VirginiaMercury @GovernorVA @VAHouseDems @vahousegop @VASenateDems @VASenateGOP #RVA #FactsMatter

#Mnuchin "Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and the Republicans are preparing to sabotage the country in order to gain political advantage from the destruction they cause." @tomfriedman @NicolleDWallace @SteveSchmidtSES @Forbes @WSJ @SenateDems @SpeakerPelosi @MarkWarner
Just to decode Thune’s remarks for you: “Spending” means cutting spending, “entitlement reform” means cuts to programs such as food stamps & Medicaid, and “growth & the economy” means hampering growth and sabotaging the economy. @SenateDems @johnthune @JoeBiden @WSJ @Forbes
By attacking America's economy, they take food off families’ tables, force cutbacks in state & local services, punish small businesses & create a vicious cycle of austerity & anemic recovery in the rest of the country, hoping Americans blame Biden for all of it. @SpeakerPelosi

100 day riots, destruction of history, leadership failure, fecklessness, bad decisions by #StandDownStoney & @GovernorVA r unforced errors unrelated to #COVID19 @NBC12 @PostOpinions Total ANNUAL hit >$15 Billion @VASenate @VaHouse #RVA @RalphNortham @VAChamber @rvabizsense
These are permanent hits to VA economy, does NOT INCLUDE ACTUAL $ COST of physical DAMAGES or restoration/rebuild costs, which should be determined. @VirginiaBiz @VASenateDems @GovernorVA #RVA
Giddy w power, @GovernorVA & #StandDownStoney wrecked #RVA thoughtless of cost or consequences, despite being warned. @timkaine @MarkWarner Better way was in hand, previously planned by thoughtful inclusive process, but wrecking, destroying chosen instead
