This is a bullshit story since Medicare will pay the bill. The real story is that we taxpayers are being billed north of a million dollars by the health care providers. Is that what it actually costs or is the US being played? — PolitiTweet.org

Happy Saturday a good day to remember we’re all in this together. And I say that with regretful understanding that many Americans reject that principle — PolitiTweet.org

Scary way to start the day looking at Charles Manson and others in my rogue’s gallery. Today busy Friday talking Seattle occupation & moving the RNC to Florida from N.C. https://t.co/uEIJMaQ3Ol — PolitiTweet.org

With almost 40,000 #COVID__19 cases #NCGovRoyCooper could not commit to full attendance so GOP is moving biggest part of RNC to Florida. #RNCinJAX — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Jenny (from the block) Durkan resisting all efforts by @realDonaldTrump to clean out #Seattle encampment/ occupation. She seems madder at @POTUS for threatening to roust the occupiers than she is mad at the occupation itself. — PolitiTweet.org

@GenFlynn was bushwhacked-ambushed by dishonest, politically motivated activists posing as #FBI agents. He must be exonerated, and if necessary, pardoned. There was zero basis to interrogate him in that grotesque perjury trap whose real target was @realDonaldTrump. — PolitiTweet.org

We must work to bridge our growing racial divide. Best antidote to estrangement is a well-paying job. Plus, parents have a job to do too. Today ⁦@wtam1100⁩ & #Roadkill the podcast. https://t.co/D1D4TrbSeF — PolitiTweet.org

When a kid goes home with ill-gotten gains from days of rioting & lotting, his or her parents must admonish them. Parents must do their jobs. Cities must do their jobs too by making summer school, playgrounds & mentoring programs available to youngsters throughout urban America — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Whatever else we do, #Chokeholds must be banned/outlawed in every jurisdiction. Such a small compromise for @realDonaldTrump & cops. Send a conciliatory note. It doesn't make you less tough. Don't let this crisis go to waste. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

#DefundThePolice is a non-starter designed to separate Americans into pro or anti-police. But there is vast room for compromise. #NYPD has a $6 Billion budget. 1% of that staggering amount is $60 million. Let's use that to retire a tank or two and re-start playground programs. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

To extent race & racism defines us, aftermath of #GeorgeFloyd murder has aggravated that division. Before this election year has run its course, it will boil down to black vs white. After #coronavirus & #Floyd aftermath this tragic racial divide is the enduring tragedy. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Aside from horrific loss of life & disruption of school safety net, worst blow to poor neighborhoods is the destruction of a roaring economy that promised to lift record numbers out of poverty with lowest black unemployment ever. Will those jobs/opportunities ever return? — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

#DefundThePolice is a spiteful self-destructive movement that will collapse as street crime hits defenseless businesses & marginal striving neighborhoods. Fearful of being labeled racist or brutal, cops inevitably will pull back. The racial divide will deepen. Who you gonna call? — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Despite 1000's of arrests, it seems looters will suffer few consequences for their days of anarchy & rioting. Many jurisdictions from #Seattle to #NewYork moving to dismiss all but the most serious cases of arson & fire bombing. Cops, on the other hand, sound bitter & defensive. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Cops across the country reeling & defensive from intense criticism portraying them as racist & violent. Caught in middle between looted shop owners of retail establishments trashed & robbed on the one hand, & civil libertarians who feel cops used too much force, they're crushed. — PolitiTweet.org

Chokeholds belong in the same museum as the torture rack & guillotine. Let's move policing into the 21st Century — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

⁦@realDonaldTrump⁩ should ban police #chokeholds now as a reasonable compromise. We must bridge racial divide. Pull together as resurgent economy provides good jobs, the best civil right. https://t.co/0HTLrCvqj0 — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

⁦@realDonaldTrump⁩ plz ban police chokeholds. Ring back the economy There’s no civil right as important as a well-paying job. DerekChauvinisBenedictArnold https://t.co/IGrwu2nnVC — PolitiTweet.org

Demilitarize and integrate cops — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Overlooked in the tumult, @realDonaldTrump allocated billions to help America's homeless yesterday. He also appointed & Senate quickly confirmed #USAF General Charles Q. Brown Jr. as Air Force Chief of Staff, 1st ever African American in history on Joint Chiefs of Staff. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

#DefundThePolice is a terrible, even spiteful idea, reckless & self-destructive. it will lead to more harm & misery to poor people. Program: #BanChokeholds; encourage community policing, not armies of occupation. Cops walking beat, not driving tanks. Demitarize & Integrate cops — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

Given the devastation wrought to law & order and race relations stemming from his videotaped torture murder of #GeorgeFloyd, I equate #DerekChauvin with #BenedictArnold. both men are traitors who hurt their country incalculably by their reckless, selfish ways. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

After watching 2 hours of deeply affecting funeral of #GeorgeFloyd yesterday in Houston, I fear #Coronavirus will be gone and fading into history, long before we bridge our gaping racial divide. Hopefully, our soon surging economy will help. There's no civil right like a good job — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

In support of @POTUS Executive Order banning all police #chokeholds of the sort that killed #EricGarner & #GeorgeFloyd: both #LAPD & #NYPD have temporarily suspended using controversial tactic pending state or federal action. @realDonaldTrump today would be a great day for a ban. — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

That would be a totally bullshit photo op. To unify America (which may be impossible until passions cool) @realDonaldTrump should sign an Executive Order banning #chokeholds — PolitiTweet.org

Geraldo Rivera @GeraldoRivera

#GeorgeFloydFuneral deeply affecting. To honor his family and millions profoundly saddened & angry over his murder, now is the perfect time for @realDonaldTrump to issue an Executive Order Banning chokeholds by any officer of any law enforcement agency receiving federal funding. — PolitiTweet.org
