This upsets some white americans. We need to continue calling out these racist white men in power. The media protects these republican men.
Rep. Matt Gaetz Is Big Mad That Howard University Is Getting Stimulus Money. Kamala Harris Calls Him Out
On Wednesday, Congress reached an agreement on a $2 trillion stimulus deal to relieve businesses and individuals affected financially by the coronavirus outbreak, and as usual, certain people are mad at all the wrong things.
Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz, a Republican, loyal Trump supporter and all-around loud and wrong white man, took to Twitter after the deal was finalized to express his concerns regarding the details of the stimulus package. So what’s Gaetz’s problem? Is it the probability that people in need of help won’t be getting a check until May at the earliest? Nah. Maybe it’s the fact that businesses will get the lion’s share of the stimulus money as opposed to families and individuals? Nope again.
It turns out that what got Gaetz’s tighty-whities in a bunch (I’m pretty sure those are still the official conservative white man undergarment) is that a nice little chunk of that money is going to an HBCU.
“$13,000,000 in taxpayer funds could be going to families across the nation struggling to put food on the table in the midst of COVID-19,” Gaetz tweeted like a hater. “Instead, it’s going to Howard University.”
A few people, such as comedian Steve Hofstetter and reporter Gillian Brockell rightfully pointed out that Howard University has a hospital that happens to be a COVID-19 treatment facility.
“Howard University’s hospital is a COVID-19 treatment facility. Either you know that and are pretending you do not, or you somehow inexplicably do not know that. Despite it being within walking distance from your office,” tweeted Hofstetter.
