Just To Correct The Record....

What Rep. Ilhan Omar Tweeted (or RT'ed) Was This:



For responding with "All About The Benjamins" with an Emoji Song Notes at the end, she was....

Forced to apologize for saying in a Tweet "All About The Benjamins" with an Emoji Song Notes -- as some equaled "All About The Benjamins" with an Emoji Song Notes at the end, to being Anti-Semantic.

There are thousands of Progressives that don't believe the hype, as in don't believe Rep. Omar saying "All About The Benjamins" with an Emoji Song Notes for a RT is racist in any type or form, especially in light of Donald J. Trump tweeting less than 48 hours ago about a "Trail of Tears" which is a Highly-Racist statement for the Indian-American Community when used in the context he tweeted in.

There are thousands of Progressives that don't believe the hype, as in don't believe Rep. Omar saying "All About The Benjamins" with an Emoji Song Notes within a RT was racist in any form, when a poll showed just TODAY 21% of Democrats who took the poll on Blackface, actually believe wearing Blackface is okay -- which is a Highly-Racist gesture to in the same poll 66% of African-Americans.

There are thousands of Progressives that don't believe the hype, as in don't believe Rep. Omar saying "All About The Benjamins" with an Emoji Song Notes within RT was racist at all, when hundreds of Latinos if not thousands are denied legal entity into the United States and Muslims are denied even visiting the United States by the Thousands - while Donald Trump continue to Tweet Racist Statements about the Latino and Muslim community -- but is never asked or is forced into an apology like Rep. Omar.

We are seeing what's in front of us and it's real, not imagined. #FoodForThought

Second woman accuses Va. Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax of sexual assault

Source: Washington Post

A Maryland woman said Friday she was raped by Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax (D) in a “premeditated and aggressive” assault in 2000, while they both were undergraduate students at Duke University. She is the second woman this week to make an accusation of sexual assault.

The woman, Meredith Watson, said Friday in a written statement through her attorney that she shared her account immediately after it happened with several classmates and friends. Watson did not speak publicly Friday and her lawyer did not make her available for an interview.

Fairfax denied the allegations forcefully.

“I deny this latest unsubstantiated allegation,” Fairfax said in a statement. “It is demonstrably false. I have never forced myself on anyone ever.”

Watson was friends with Fairfax at Duke but they never dated or had any romantic relationship, Watson’s lawyer, Nancy Erika Smith, said.

“At this time, Ms. Watson is reluctantly coming forward out of a strong sense of civic duty and her belief that those seeking or serving in public office should be of the highest character,” Smith said in the statement . “She has no interest in becoming a media personality or reliving the trauma that has greatly affected her life. Similarly, she is not seeking any financial damages.”
