Mike Pence invited Candace Owens to the White House to discuss how to move forward

On the day George Floyd was memorialized after his death in Minneapolis police custody, Vice President Mike Pence invited controversial conservative vlogger Candace Owens to the White House for a discussion on how to “move the country forward” in the wake of widespread protests against police violence.

Amongst the other conservative blacks invited to have this discussion Star Parker-an ardent supporter of Donald Trump- who recently wrote this about Donald Trump

Domestic terrorists roamed the streets, destroying private property, wanting to destroy our nation, pretending to be rioting to save it. They defaced the Lincoln Memorial and the World War II Memorial, and torched St. John's Episcopal Church, where presidents have prayed since 1816.

President Donald Trump touched the heart of the issue in remarks he made in the White House Rose Garden, saying: "America is founded on the rule of law. It is the foundation of our prosperity, our freedom and our very way of life."

He then courageously ventured off the White House grounds, crossed Lafayette Square and stood in front of St. John's Church, holding a Bible, and declaring the greatness of our nation and his resolve to keep it safe.

The fundraising site axed Owens’ account “because of a repeated pattern of inflammatory statements” spreading “hate, discrimination, intolerance and falsehoods.”

I started listening to her little Floyd is not a good man speech the other day and had to turn it off because I was yelling at the TV so loud. Never heard the end.

It was one of the most vile, disgusting displays I’ve ever seen. I have a horrifying fantasy 45 will incorporate it into his supposed speech on race relations this week.
