    Nope. Wrong. They did not suspect him of being a criminal. It was a thrill kill, bet on it. Trying to understand these people is futile.

    WORLD EXCLUSIVE: Meghan and Harry are living in this $18m Beverly Hills mansion of mega-rich Hollywood actor/producer Tyler Perry and arranged by mutual friend Oprah

    Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been staying in a ultra-luxury Beverly Hills hideout that belongs to Hollywood tycoon Tyler Perry, DailyMail.com can reveal

    Perry, who is worth $600 million, is best known for the portrayal of the feisty character Madea in the series of hit films

    Perry’s eight-bedroom, 12-bathroom Tuscan-style villa sits on the top of a hill in the exclusive Beverly Ridge Estates guard-gated community

    The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and their one-year-old son Archie have called the $18 million mansion home since moving to LA at the end of March

    The couple have never been seen in public with Perry, 50, but are believed to have met him through their mutual close friend Oprah Winfrey

    You go to different doctor’s for different specialties.

    If there is an infectious disease going around, then I want the information from those who study it for a living. I don’t need to research….they do that.😒😒

    Quick reminder here…

    When a politician says, “The killers must be held accountable”, that is one notch above offering thoughts and prayers.

    Demand more. If they want to be elected, if they want to lead, make them responsible for dealing with this.

    Revealed, the reason why obese people may be more at risk of coronavirus: Fat cells make large amounts of a protein used by the deadly infection to infiltrate human cells

    The reason why obese people may be more at risk of dying from coronavirus could be because their fat cells make large amounts of a protein used by the infection to infiltrate human cells.

    The coronavirus – scientifically called SARS-CoV-2 – latches onto ACE-2 receptors, known as the ‘gateway’ into cells inside body.

    Fat cells express ACE-2 receptors, which experts say may explain why obese people have higher odds of suffering a severe bout of COVID-19.

    ACE-2 is also expressed in the fat cells of people with type 2 diabetes – another high-risk health condition driven by obesity.

    Some researchers now believe diabetes drugs could be used to fight the infection – and admitted that losing weight may also have a benefit.

    The scientists who posed the theory, from Germany and the US, also outlined how fat cells are linked to a lung-scarring condition called pulmonary fibrosis.

    With COVID-19 added on top, the lungs would struggle to get enough oxygen to the rest of the body.

    The fact the DA is lying does not bode well for justice.

    I want to hear from presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden on these hate crimes and violations of human rights. He needs to start convincing me that his tough on crime reputation from the 1990’s can be revived only this time against white supremacy and police brutality. I want to know what the DOJ is going to do about it. Are we supposed to continue tolerating this in the interest of “defeating Trump” because we dare not speak up for fear of losing white voters?

    This man was 25 years old. Jogging. Minding his own business. There is not one thing that separates him from my grandnephew or your sons, brothers, nephews, friends, etc…Any of us could get that phone call. And for what? Crossing paths with a white supremacist out hunting? Out for a thrill kill? Believing their made up story will satisfy the local lawmen like in 1940’s?

    This can’t wait any longer.

      The fact that we’re even talking about re-electing Trump is proof enough that this country is in a rapid moving downward spiral that just might change it forever. Self-governance may end up being something historians write about, assuming we still have historians.
