<p><strong>We have talked at length about Bank of America's supposed $1B "Commitment" to help end racial inequality. I have said that I don't believe they will ever just "GIVE" a billion, and so far no news story has proved me wrong yet. Conservative voices on Twitter have taken this lack of clarity that BofA provides about it's giving to spin it that Bank of America really spent this money to fund Black Lives Matter in a Militaristic way for a civil war. While I think it's silly, as I don't believe BofA is spending nowhere close to that amount, their silence is only stoking the fire from the right side of the aisle.</strong></p> <p><strong>From leading conservative voices like </strong><a href="https://twitter.com/BrentBozell/status/1284101479570251777"><strong>Brent Bozell, who's tweet broke Twitter for me last weekend because of the sheer volume of replies and retweets he got</strong></a><strong> for saying BofA gave it to "Marxism" to fringe heavyweight boxes like </strong><a href="https://twitter.com/ninoboxer/status/1284281224442400773"><strong>David "Nino" Rodriguez, a tomato can from my home area who never won a meaningful fight in his professional career tweeting similar theories.</strong></a></p> <p><strong>His boxing journey is hilarious to me BTW.</strong></p> <p><strong>I talk about their tweets, how it stoked anger that BofA is not doing anything to quell and why.
