Jesse Jackson gives Donald Trump high praise - June 28, 2024

(Posted June 28, 2024) At this meeting of the WALL STREET PROJECT in 1999 with #JesseJackson, participants (including #DonaldTrump) talked about ways to build bridges between #WallStreet and economically depressed regions in #NewYork. Business leaders discussed various opportunities for investment in low-income areas and ways to lower the risk of investment and to broaden the financial base of these areas. After their presentations, they answered questions from the audience. This was when #Trump's idea for "Opportunity Zones" in 2017 were first born. But last night (June 27, 2024) during the #Trump vs. #Biden debate on CNN, Trump graciously gave the credit to Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina. Today #JoeBiden can't tell us where the billions of our dollars went for the American Rescue Plan, the Infrastructure Plan and the Inflation Reduction Act. Some say most of the money went overseas and into his own people's pockets. But all we know is, the money didn't go to the hood or downtown.
