Representative Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) tested positive for COVID-19, he said today (July 30th).

I’ve been trying to figure out why the Black Lives Matter movement hasn’t been abandoned by, well, everyone. The movement started on the indefensible notion that police brutality is rampant in the U.S., specifically against black men. The data simply doesn’t not back this up. I have not seen a
