American Beauty

It's primary season again...

Sinema and Manchin support Jim Crow 2.0. That’s a problem for the Democratic Party that need Black voters to win elections.

Patrick, Bloomberg, and Clinton are thinking of entering the Democratic presidential primary. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard and Hillary Clinton are beefing. The impeachment hearings have begun and Republicans are making fools out of themselves to defend Trump.

On today’s episode Quiana S. Fulton discusses the erosion of voting rights that Black Americans are facing in America.

In today's episode I discuss the spread of the coronavirus in the White House, including the President and First Lady; and the leaked tapes of the First Lady, Melania Trump.dayibg she doesn't care about Christmas and the family separation policy.

Michael Moore, the water crisis in Flint, Michigan, and post racial politics. The House impeaches Trump, but the Trump admin refuses to believe it. Sen. Tulsi Gabbard betrays her party? Why is Mayor Pete so loved by the mainstream media and liberal celebrities but Sen. Cory Booker is not. In the sixth debate, Amy Klobuchar and Andrew Yang stood out the most, Mayor Pete not so much. Sarah Huckabee Sanders is a disgrace. Brexit wins again. 317 days until the presidential election.

Rep. Liz Cheney reveals former Chief of Staff Mark Meadows received tweets from Fox News hosts and others begging Donald Trump to stop the insurrection. Yet, now they claim the insurrectionists are patriots. Apparently, truth are lies and lies are truth.

The pandemic took a toll on me; Republicans want to talk about the insurrection no more because they know they’re guilty; hypocritical Republicans shame Vice President Kamala Harris for enjoying the LONG weekend.

Joe Biden is our president-elect. #46

My thoughts on The New York Times breaking story, they have Trump’s long awaited taxes. Needless to say, it’s not a good look for Trump. I discuss the details and give advice to Trump moving forward.

Conservatives are incensed that liberals dare to criticize the next Supreme Court Nominee, Amy Coney Barrett. According to their made-up rules, liberals should sit down and shut up. I explain why Democrats should do the exact opposite. It’s time to put conservatives in their place.

Today is the 19th anniversary of September 11—and the ignorance of revisionists prevails in white America believing the country united as one. I guess were supposed to forget the outbreak of crimes against Muslim’s, Hindus, and Sikh’s, certainly the NYT’s columnist Paul Krugman has forgotten.

Last Sunday, a member of Bubba Wallace team found a noose hanging in his garage. Wallace is the only black diver in the sport currently. The FBI concluded the rope shaped liked a noose was not targeted at Mr. Wallace. Still, a noose is a noose. In this episode, I discuss the controversy, my love of NASCAR, and it’s confederate problem. Also, I call out Sen. Tom Cotton for his dog whistle politics against DC statehood.

America is in flames; from the pandemic to civil unrest, the pillars of our country is burning day-by-day. Will we ever see change?
