WHAT HYPOCRISY! @SusanRSwecker@vademocrats accusing ANYONE of lack of transparency/not responding to FOIA requests! #McAwful had his bought & paid for new blue GA add 180 exemptions to state FOIA laws to conceal his thefts from poor black children in #RVA@bluevirginia@RTDNEWS
Also clean up the filth & vermin at "Lord of the Flies" Circle, don't just wall it off @GovernorVA. That area is a filthy, unsanitary, unsightly eyesore, that contributed greatly to the pandemic. @RTDNEWS#RVA your legacy is 100 days of filth, fires, failures & chaos.
1)I imagine Palm Sundays after church, Congregations walk around Lee Circle with palm fronds and back to Sunday services 2) imagine Easter Parade for all races along Monumnet Avenue, Easter bonnet contest (adults, children & dogs) on base of Lee Monument 3) Monument Ave 10K #RVA
4) imagine children drawing chalk hop-scotch patterns on Monument Ave on Easter Sunday #RVA 5) imagine Richmond marathon along Monument Ave 6) imagine international bike races thru #rva along Monument Ave 7)imagine runners & walkers safely walking on Virginia's most beautiful ave
A lot of white guys legally protesting in support of 2A rights are NOT to be lumped together/confused with the #TrumpInsurrection overthrow the government groups. They are not all the same. Many are more #Libertarian with no attempted coup in mind. Judge them by their deeds.
@VaHouseDems@VaSenateDems major cause of health disparities for African Americans is NOT racism. #FactsMatter Vitamin D deficiency (genetic) is most frequently cited factor in scientific literature. @NIH program All of Us is a major research effort to address this. #science
Dr.FrancisCollins, who led #HumanGenome project is PgmDirector It will discern genetic, environment, life style factors for 1 million Americans, all races, ample # AfrAm in study. Let #Science determine the answer on this. I am on the mailing list & will report findings.
Vitamin D is the big factor. AfrAms have different gene networks for D, not a vitamin, but a hormone that regulates immune response. Those catching #COVID19 also had low D levels as well. I have told many friends & #RVA about D, so have your friends& family all take D #Science
Decriminalization YES. which @VaHouse@VASenate already did. @RalphNortham KNOWS this is harmful and is a poison for children. Commercialization NO. Decriminalization WE ALREADY DID. Last spring. Marijuana is NOT a harmless drug. It does NOT bring revenue.
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
@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.
