BREAKING: Kamala Harris will be going to DC today to be the deciding vote against Judy Shelton’s nomination to the Federal Reserve.
Kamala Harris is going to be the tie-breaking vote instead of Mike Pence. 😂
Shelton is a partisan hack who doesn’t deserve to be serving at the world’s most powerful central bank. If she is nominated, she will destroy the economy in Biden’s first term. washingtonpost.com/opinions/repub…

Joe Biden gave a major economic address in Dover today. But you probably didn't see it because no major news network covered the event. So here's a thread containing the transcript of the entire speech.
"Good afternoon.
Before I speak to the economic situation, I have to take a moment to address something the President said this morning.
Toward the end of his remarks today, Donald Trump said...
he hopes that George Floyd “is looking down and seeing this is a great day for our country.”
He was speaking of a man who was brutally killed by an act of needless violence — and by a larger tide of injustice — that has metastasized on this President’s watch.
