Where Will The RNC 2020 be Held?

President Donald is threatening to withdraw the RNC, Republican National Convention, from Charlotte, N.C., where it is scheduled to be held in August, accusing the state’s Democratic governor of trying to prevent a fully attended event due to coronavirus concerns. Pres. Trump wrote that if Mr. Cooper did not provide an answer “immediately,” he would “be reluctantly forced to find, with all of the jobs and economic development it brings, another Republican National Convention site. This is not something I want to do.”

"Central Park Karen" Amy Cooper

Amy Cooper called the police on Christian Cooper, same last name but no relation, after he asked her to put a leash on her dog and then refused to stop recording her.

SpaceX Succeeds

Despite an unfortunate failed launch earlier in the week due to unfavorable weather conditions, Elon Musk's SpaceX made history Saturday with the successful maiden launch of two NASA astronauts into orbit aboard a commercially-owned spacecraft. The historic launch effectively marks the end of a nearly 10-year long U.S. dependency on Russia for seats to space and the potential beginning of more private space firms launching astronauts in the future. “This is everything America has to offer in its purest form," the NASA chief said. "I hope this moment in time is an opportunity for everybody to reflect on humanity and what we can do when we work together, when we strive and when we achieve,"

As explained by CNBC, the Trump administration and the Chinese government are currently going head to head over the coronavirus pandemic.

The Death of George Floyd

In the span of nearly four minutes on video, one floored George Floyd can be heard telling police at least a dozen times that he can’t breathe and asking now ex-police officer Derek Chauvin to take his knee off his neck. “Please, I can’t breathe,” Floyd said. After the arrest, despite medical officials reportedly spending an hour trying to revive a completely non-responsive Floyd, he was pronounced dead at a local hospital shortly after.

The Aftermath of George Floyd's Death

After the death of George Floyd, protests and civil unrest have rocked the country. Protesters and demonstrators alike vandalized property and targeted police cars while the police have used tear gas and fired rubber bullets into crowds. Tensions didn't exactly subside when President Donald Trump later called such protesters “thugs” and tweeted, “When the looting starts, the shooting starts.”

Pres. Trump Vs. Twitter

President Donald Trump was tweeting about the US city of Minneapolis, which has seen consecutive nights of protests following the death of George Floyd in police custody. Pres. Trump tweeted that he would "send in the National Guard", and followed that up with a warning that "when the looting starts, the shooting starts." The tweet was hidden by Twitter for "glorifying violence". Then later on in the same week, Twitter went onto not removing Trump's tweet but rather, adding a fact-checking link in regards to the president's claims that mail-in ballots lead to fraud. Since then, Trump has got the social media giant in his sights and has signed an executive order aiming to strip away legal protections from social networks like Twitter.

Protesters Arrive At Trump's Doorstep

“Great job last night at the White House by the U.S. @SecretService,” Pres. Donald Trump tweeted in a string of four posts in regards to the George Floyd protests occurring at the White House. “They were not only totally professional, but very cool. I was inside, watched every move, and couldn’t have felt more safe.” Trump wrote. “Big crowd, professionally organized, but nobody came close to breaching the fence. If they had they would have been greeted with the most vicious dogs, and most ominous weapons, I have ever seen.”
