#SevenYearsAgoToday #AreYouBetterOff

May 24, 2017 – Department of Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson said that poverty was “a state of mind.” The former neurosurgeon, now in charge of programs responsible for low-income housing, had previously said that low-income housing should not be a “comfortable setting that would make somebody want to say: ‘I’ll just stay here.’”

@glimse @BearOfaTime Let's not pretend that the would villainize any conservative republican who won the nomination. If , , , heck anyone other than or would have won, you'd be saying the exact same thing today about that person.

#Bove asks #Pecker to describe the negative stories that The #NationalEnquirer ran about #Trump's 2016 #Republican opponents, #BenCarson, #MarcoRubio & #TedCruz. He argues, as he did yesterday, that it was standard operating procedure to run articles like these, in which The NE reran previously reported content. Bove is still trying to convince the #jury that Pecker didn't have some special arrangement w/Trump: Instead, his publication was doing what it had always done.

Then #Pecker discussed the negative headlines attacking 3 of #Trump's #Republican opponents in 2016, #BenCarson, #TedCruz & #MarcoRubio, which prosecutors argued illustrated the outcome of the #CatchAndKill #ElectionInterference agreement reached during the Trump Tower meeting.

Pecker said that #MichaelCohen would “feed” him negative information & that The #NationalEnquirer would "embellish" & add onto it.
