One of President Donald Trump’s fiercest critics on Capitol Hill will address the country just after next Tuesday’s State of the Union.
Rep. Maxine Waters, a California Democrat, will speak at the top of a BET News special after Trump delivers the State of the Union, a BET spokesperson told BuzzFeed News. The program, “Angela Rye’s State of the Union,” is part of a broader partnership announced just days ago between the network and the Democratic strategist and political commentator. Rye will executive produce news programs with a sharp focus on issues facing black Americans. The programs will run quarterly, BET said in a release.
The spokesperson said activists and some elected officials will analyze Trump’s first year in office on the program, and will talk about "building black politics and the value of engagement across today’s socio-political landscape." A Democratic source familiar with the production on Friday night told BuzzFeed News that it wasn't immediately clear if the program would air on Tuesday or Wednesday night.
Trump has recently taken to highlighting how well he believes black Americans are doing under his presidency, tweeting earlier this month that he was "so happy" that black joblessness was plummeting. Earlier this month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said the rate had fallen below 7%, but analysts disagree over how much credit, if any, Trump deserves for that drop. Black lawmakers certainly don’t think he deserves that credit, and some plan to let him know that Tuesday by boycotting his speech.

Who’s giving the speech on “The Home Shopping Network? “
BET = Black Entertainment Television.
What if there was a WET (White Entertainment Television)?
ALL HECK WOULD BREAK LOOSE!! “You Racists!”
See their double standard??
She will respond on BET.
To keep black folks on the plantation.
Perhaps, Mad Maxine will have an opportunity to elaborate on the super not-so-secret database that #44 concocted. /s
Waters is trash1 Before marriage, she used her mother’s ( er rather sperm receptacle’s) name, Moore. She was the fifth oldest of THIRTEEN CHILDREN HATCHED BY THIS WOMAN. Her sperm donor’s was name REMUS CARR, who left his brood when Maxine was five. No telling how many of the 13 Remus produced, but it wasn’t all of them since that would have been a physical impossibility unless her “mother” had a bunch of multiple births. More St. Louis Black Trash who “migrated” to California years ago to begin eating away at our once proud culture and state.
Bet it’s a recording of rocks being thrown at a chimp cage.

“Rep. Maxine Waters, a California Democrat, will speak at the top of a BET News special”
In ebonics I suspect...
Guess she doesn’t trust that white guy, Joe Kennedy III.
Presenting to an audience of tens.
What is BET? I need to know so I will not accidentally or on purpose be watching it.
“It’s all they got.”
Hank Johnson wasn’t available?
Im surprized the alphabet channels do not introduce the President...
Then play a re-run of one of 0bama’s SOTU speeches.
Bitches Entertainment Network.
And she's a long way down the road from her prime such as it was.
Maxie may not be the dumbest most corrupt, most hate mongering, most arrogant female in America
but no one else has come forward to take the title from her yet.
Right now every breath she takes is a waste of good oxygen.
I will be sure to miss it. Ugly race baiting negro woman does not make the cut at my house.
Next please.....

Will BET have subtitles or someone on screen translating her ebonics into English?
I had the same thought, “close captioned for the ebonics impaired?”
is there a difference?
That's what I'm thinking too. She's the intellectual giant of the Democratic party. The pettiness should be spectacular, the logic will be mind boggling, the fake news will spew forth like a volcano on steroids, fact checkers won't know where to start, the emotional appeals to race and class will be over the top. I hope the Democrats half way jump the shark with this one.
