Either way, it also describes Jesse Jackson.

Bovino said on live TV that the βsuspect approached law enforcement with a loaded 9mm.β
The video from the woman in the pink jacket clearly shows that is a lie.

And his family should call for murder charges and sue Bovino for millions.

It would cost billions to βbuyβ Greenland, not to mention the fact that Greenland is not for sale.
Trump should take that money and invest in Universal Healthcare.
Then Americans can feel like theyβre in Greenland every single day.
