🔥 👊 👊 👊 👊 👊. Lying Trump Tower of 💩 said Puerto Rico received $91 billion in disaster relief. The facts:

They “received $1.5 billion last summer and $8.2 billion more approved last month (Feb. 2019).”

A couple of dollars in paper towels Trump threw out to survivors who were looking for food and water in Oct. 2017.

100′s of thousands of bottled water that ended up being contaminated

“If the bully gets close, I’ll punch the bully in the mouth,” Rosselló said in an interview with CNN.

Rosselló is currently in Washington to meet with members of Congress in an effort to grant Puerto Rico statehood, CNN reported, which Rosselló views as necessary to receive the disaster recovery funds it needs to continue the nearly-two-year-long process after Hurricane Maria. 

“I just think we have to end this battle of words and just recognize we’re not his political adversaries, we’re his citizens,” Rosselló 

👊 Peter Navarro

It’s not just Trump treating the Puerto Ricans with disrespect, but his administration too. Puerto Rican officials told CNN that on Wednesday, they were told by White House senior officials including trade adviser Peter Navarro that Puerto Rico was being too adamant in setting up a meeting between the governor and Trump. “You guys have to fucking stop with the meeting request,” one official reportedly said, while Navarro reportedly added: “Your governor is fucking things up.”

I don’t know, y’all. Maybe if the president actually gave a shit about helping Puerto Rico and the people who live there recover from the worst disaster to hit the island in modern history, Puerto Rican officials wouldn’t have to hound him for a meeting.

Syrian government forces gain ground in Idlib province by Al Jazeera English Syrian government forces have continued their push into Idlib province, despite President Tayyip Recep Erdogan's threats to push back against them. They have captured the key strategic town of Saraqib. Hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced by the fighting and are heading towards the Turkish border as aid groups warn of an impending humanitarian catastrophe. Turkey says it cannot handle any more refugees as 3.5 million Syrians already live there.

The war’s killed more than a quarter of a million people.The fighting in Yemen, now in its fifth year, appears to be no closer to an end. Peace efforts have made little progress.
