I am an admirer of Virginian @GlennYoungkin & never hesitate to criticize @TerryMcAuliffe & other figures of both parties, but let me explain what this is really all about. It is about eclampsia, what killed the @DowntonAbbey daughter who died in childbirth. @VA_GOP@700club 1/
2/ The Republican Woman Governor of Alabama signed a bill about late term abortions with this important exception: "except in case of emergencies" She understands about eclampsia & that childbirth is inherently dangerous. It is only relevant for emergencies like that. #RVA
3/ I don't think any @vademocrats have effectively or precisely explained why this may rarely but sometimes be medically needed. My sister became eclamptic & convulsed in childbirth. Fortunately both she & my nephew survived. Women die this way. @KathyKLTran@TerryMcAuliffe
4/ The incoherent babbling of the ineloquent @GovernorVA was also irrelevant since, as @MarkWarner promptly pointed out: that wouldn't happen since infanticide laws are already on the books. I hope this helps clarify this issue somewhat.
@BBCWorld I know Steve Wolf but he is wrong. Race is NOT a social construct as #CRT claimed. Health disparities are largely genetic. No single gene for race but African Americans have different gene network for hormone D that regulates immune system. #COVIDdeaths tracked D
Access to insurance & health care are factors & exposure risk, but sets of genes differ in different races. Sanofi Dengue fever vaccine worked well in Mex, Latin American. But in SE Asia it failed. Cause found to be genetic differences. It’s nonsense to claim race isn’t genetic.
I organized a conference on gene networks& disease in 2010. The Human Genome sequenced genes. The research on gene networks has developed over the last 20+ years. The peer reviewed literature in PubMed has hundreds of research papers on the genetic factors in health disparities.
@camanpour Jones was wrong in her premise for #CriticalRaceTheory which is based on Marxist theory, & her own misunderstanding of genomics. #CRT is antithetical to Dr MLK's dream of NOT being judged by skin color. It asserts that "whiteness is the source of all racial injustice"
2 The police are NOT the source of the violence against black people, although the media definitely conveys that impression. #FactsMatter. Below are facts about the sources of violence against black people, from peer reviewed sources and the original databases quoted in them.
3 #FactsMatter Criminologist Dr. Richard R. Johnson Crime data sources from the FBI’s Supplementary Homicide Reports & CDC, found that an average of 4,472 black men were killed by other black men between Jan. 1, 2009, and Dec. 31, 2012. THESE #BlackLivesMatter too!
@LouiseMensch@911CORLEBRA777@DeptofDefense@USPacificFleet@20committee@GCHQ@ASDGovAu@JoeBiden I've noticed another disturbing trend in academia &the arts, re-writing history to a warped anti-American, anti whatever they want to attack, self flagellating attacks on America, trashing anything successful/excellent, a recurrence of 60s,70s academic/pseudo intellectual hate.
#BLM originates from two Marxist leaders (see their @YouTube videos) who took its techniques directly from Marxist praxis of confrontation, disruption & destruction. Because of our concern for #BlackLivesMatter goals we don’t criticize, but embezzlement of #BLM funds hurts them.
Why don’t LGR local grass roots #BLM take control of your future? A tall young man, a protester, held his sign #BlackFuturesMatter I saw his frustration. Tall, maybe 🏀 player, then after basketball 🏀 no job. That’s on my door. Make YOUR FUTURE matter. #BlackLivesMatter
@POTUS@JoeBiden has many plans for education, #blackentrepreneurs and many opportunities. To minimize debt, go to community colleges. @JSargentReynold downtown has many career track programs. Look there, call. HS counselors can advise you. @RPS_Schools Jobs in healthcare, tech
@chucktodd Ben is WRONG. You, @MSNBC need to understand exactly what #CriticalRaceTheory actually IS. It is not about denying racism exists. It is not a tactic. #CRT is based on Critical Theory, a Marxist theory that asserts: there is the Oppressor and the Oppressed. Part 1 and
Part 2 #BLM White people are The Oppressor, Black People are The Oppressed. It stresses constant action of The Oppressed confronting The Oppresser. It is Marxist indoctrination quite factually instructing children that bad white people are why good Black People have problems.
@marclamonthill@AfricanaCarr African Americans have been part of America's story from the beginning. African Americans were called servants in Va records of the early 1620s. Only 1 non Christian was recorded bound for life. Freed servants W/B were common, some owned land, had servants #RVA Free community too
@marclamonthill@AfricanaCarr These facts are from well documented historical sources from The Story of Virginia. Bound Away, ~1000 scholarly references, University of Virginia Press. I got it @VirginiaMuseum as it had African origins info for AfrAm Virginians. #RVA@RTDNEWS@FreePressRVA
