White House Weekly: September 8

Published



We begin on Friday, August 28, President Trump travels to New Hampshire for a campaign rally, blasting the more than 100 protesters who showed up outside the White House the previous night when he accepted the Republican nomination for president at the GOP convention. He took aim at the protesters who swarmed around Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul as he was leaving the convention.

The protesters mobbing Paul were demanding that he “say her name.” “Her” is in reference to Breonna Taylor, who was shot and killed by police in her own home during a raid using a “no knock” search warrant. The irony in all of this is that Paul sponsored the Justice for Breonna Taylor Act to ban “no knock” search warrants. You really can’t make this stuff up.
