  1. Puerto Ricans all over the island are still having to store water in paint buckets, plastic jugs, or go without. the board that the was created by congress to oversee the conservation &storage in dams & distribution of water for the island has no oversite. the texts leaked showed the board incharge of limiting & regulating the flow of any water released & how much ignored the specialists who tried to convince them to reduce the amount of water released. they did not reply or act for almost a month, squandering their already scarce life source. in remote areas has been rationed and only turned the water on every few weeks. one family, 86 yr old woman & 90 yr old husband have to walk 3 miles in the mountains with as many 5 gal buckets of water… this is another main reason we called for the governor to resign, not bc of their comments showing they are mysoginists, or homophobic, or even joking about having someone shoot the San Juan mayor. the real call to all Puerto Ricans was the txt about cadavers/ people who had died from hurricane maria. saying they were over flowing the shipping containers / non rerefrigerated refrigeration trucks & how bad they smelled. then, in an txt with US congressional oversight committee discuss delaying shipments of aid to P.R. so when it arrives it will be good for their reelection campaign will generate positive results, while keeping the a positive opinion from the public of the board & the Governor

  2. Take care of americans ,our own…instead of sticking your nose in venezuela. Help your own people,U old haggs!

  3. Easy bullshit tactical move for gentrification! Nothing more, being from the region, (they) have been attempting this for years, that's why the crime rate in the E.P. housing area has been extremely higher than the city of B-more's crime rate. AmeriKKKa your day is coming!!

  4. I believe most of you commenting are bots . Artificial intelligence. Not real people. Your agenda to government bash has no merit to this problem. Get on with your cyber selves. Go reboot. Or back to sleep. Your program is terminated in 1 sec

  5. this is why we need UBI. To take away the stigma of being "poor". To give people a chance to rise up and do something better. And to eliminate the hate. Where we don't have to hear "they just poor people, who gives a rat if they have or not." whereas with UBI they would be saying "OH shit! a customer has issues, let's take care of it." because they dont know where the money is coming from, there would be no need for "projects" so they just fix the damn thing.

  6. DC the neighborhoods that surround the WH are crummy. Ghettos . . ….while "they" bask in wealth🇺🇸🍸🌎🍸

  7. This is a clear sign that the USA empire is collapsing and going down the drain . or the toilet without any water to clean themselves…!!!…

  8. Maybe we need to STOP helping immigrants and other countries 🤷🏾 maybe the residents need to stop voting for ppl who chose outsiders over them
