USA news on Youtube Sep 12 2018

Government studies and economic research show over and over again that to be black in America

is to face bias

If you're black in America you run into bias at a pretty young age

If you walk to school in the morning, you might have to wait longer to cross the street

drivers stop less frequently for black pedestrians than for white

If you're black in America and you're looking for a job

you might have to look harder

job applicants with black sounding names receive fewer call backs than those with white sounding names

and if you get the job, keep in mind that you'll be working just as hard as your white colleagues

but might make 30% less than them

If you're black in America and you want to buy a house

your agent might show you fewer properties than his white clients

If you're black in America you might get pulled over by the police more than your white friends

If that happens, the police are more likely to search your car

and they're more likely to use force against you if there's a misunderstanding

If you're arrested and convicted of a crime

the sentence might be harsher too

If you're black in America and you get sick

you might have to tough it out

Now there are some caveats

First Hispanics, Asians and other minorities face a lot of these situations too

and second, the story is based on studies and surveys

so not all of these situations are true for every place in America at every time

but it does paint a pretty consistent picture

Chelsea Clinton Has A Jaw Dropping Role In Plan To Impeach Trump - Duration: 4:08.

Chelsea Clinton Has A Jaw Dropping Role In Plan To Impeach Trump

Democrats are waging total war against Judge Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation to the Supreme

Court.

Liberals are using the fight to fire up their base ahead of the midterm election.

And Chelsea Clinton is helping with their plan that could lead to Donald Trump's impeachment.

The Democrats Real Goal Democrats have little chance to block Judge

Kavanaugh's confirmation.

Republicans only need a simple majority to push Kavanaugh's nomination through.

And since no GOP Senators have announced they will vote "no," Judge Kavanaugh will breeze

through the confirmation process.

So the Democrats know not to waste their time staging a massive fight in his confirmation.

Instead, the left is using Kavanaugh's nomination to stoke their base's enthusiasm ahead of

the midterm elections.

Chelsea Clinton's Role Chelsea Clinton stepped up to assist the Democrats

efforts and headlined a "Rise up For Roe" event in New York City.

Planned Parenthood, the Demand Justice Initiative, and NARAL organized the gathering.

The goal was to whip up as much fear and hysteria surrounding the future of abortion in America.

Abortion is the biggest cultural fight for Democrats.

Democrats are claiming Judge Kavanaugh's nomination puts Roe v. Wade at risk.

Impact on the 2018 Midterm Elections The Rise up For Roe tour, which began in Manhattan,

will also extend to states where Democrats are targeting Republican Senators for defeat

in November.

There will be stops in Austin, Texas, Las Vegas, Nevada and Phoenix, Arizona.

Democrat's best chances to flip Republican-held Senate seats are in Arizona and Nevada.

And in Texas, polls show Democrat challenger Beto O'Rourke within single digits of Ted

Cruz.

The left knows that cultural issues are what inflame voters and fires them up to vote.

So they want to make the fate of Roe v. Wade the most important issue in their voter's

minds.

That's why this tour is taking place in major urban population epicenters.

The Democrats voting base is clustered in big cities, so the "Rise up For Roe" tour

is really an early kickoff for the midterm election campaign.

The Stakes in the 2018 Midterm Elections Obviously, Control of the House and Senate

is up for grabs in 2018.

But the midterm elections could have even greater consequences for the nation than just

who will wield the Speaker's gavel.

If Democrats win one or both houses of Congress in November, experts expect them to launch

impeachment proceedings.

Even if Robert Mueller does not turn up any impeachable offenses in his investigation,

Democrats will invent grounds to move impeachment forward.

Their unhinged base will demand it.

The fate of Donald Trump's Presidency hangs in the balance.

That's why Chelsea Clinton and other Democrat big names like Elizabeth Warren are joining

the 'Rise up For Roe' tour.

These events will fire up their base and stoke fear in voters with what two more years of

a unified Republican government would look like.

We will keep you up to date on any new developments in the 2018 midterm elections and the battle

for Congress.

What's in my newborn cloth diaper bag? Packing Lily Jade Lorie (2018) - Duration: 16:23.

Hi, this is Heidi at EC Peesy.

I'm going to share with you "What's in my diaper bag?" for my baby girl.

We've been cloth diapering and we also practice elimination communication, so the items in

our diaper bag might be a little bit different than what you're used to seeing, but we're

gonna share what we've been carrying with her as a newborn and then what we're changing

up now that she's 3-months-old.

So the first items I'm going to show you are our cloth diapers.

I like to bring along 6 cloth diapers, which takes up quite a bit of room.

But since we do practice elimination communication I try to change her after every time she pees

or poops and so we go through the diapers really quick.

At first I was hoping to bring 8 cloth diapers along and there was just no way that was gonna

fit in my diaper bag.

So we usually do 6.

Unless it's a really short outing then maybe I'll do 4.

And for cloth wipes I like to bring a couple extras for patting dry, so I normally bring

about 8 cloth wipes.

And I just carry them dry.

What I've learned is that if you pre-moisten them then they tend to mold really quickly.

So I like to bring them dry and also bring a small bottle of water so I can spray the

wipes.

But a lot of public bathrooms I can also just wet the wipes in the sink and then I don't

even need this spray bottle.

But maybe at the park I might need it.

And I'm afraid of the water leaking and ruining my diaper bag so I have a little wet/dry bag

from Planet Wise that I keep it zipped up in and then I also try to keep the bottle

upright in my bag.

And the next thing is a thin Logan and Lenora change pad.

At home I use a wool changing pad from Little Bunny Bear but it's a little too bulky because

I have so many diapers in my diaper bag I need a really thin change pad.

So I really like the one from Logan and Lenora.

It's easy to fold up and then it has a little magnetic closure that makes it easy

to get it back into the right shape and shove it back into the diaper bag when you have

so many things to juggle in the bathroom when you are doing a diaper change.

And then to pack these items: cloth diapers, wipes, and change pad, I use a Planet Wise

wet/dry bag.

So it's the same size as their medium wet bag would be, but it has a front pocket where

you can keep the dry items and then it has a bigger pocket for the wet items.

That was my son whose playing camera man there.

Hopefully he won't do that again.

So I pack up the diapers - put about 3 at a time in a stack.

Put those into that bag.

And then I'll put the cloth wipes.

I'll put the change pad as well.

And I like to carry one extra cloth diaper cover.

This is just a PUL cloth diaper cover "P-U-L" from Blueberry and I normally use wool ones

at home but this is really lightweight and compact for carrying in the diaper bag.

So this is the one I would bring like as my extra.

When we're leaving the house I would as a newborn have my daughter in this Babee Greens

wool diaper cover which I really love.

This was my favorite wool diaper cover during the newborn phase.

But I only bought one of these, so if she was wearing this then I would have the Blueberry

one for backup. And, luckily, I wouldn't too often need to change the diaper cover

usually just whatever the absorbent part inside.

So that's the wet bag, wet/dry bag, packed up.

And then I've got my water in here.

So I'm going to pack it all into my Lily Jade Lorie.

Lily Jade is a diaper bag brand but they just released some lifestyle bags.

So the Lorie is considered a lifestyle bag, so because of that it doesn't come with the

organizer and it doesn't come with the diaper changing pad.

It's just basically a big open tote bag inside.

Which I prefer anyways because I use, I like to use the wet/dry bags to pack, so I didn't

want the organizer.

So I will put that in there.

Um and then my other big item that I like to pack right away is the potty.

And this is called "The Baby Potty".

It's available from Tiny Undies and I'll put a link down below of where you can get this.

This particular version is made from the biodegradable plant-based plastic, which I really like 'cause

I try to choose as much as possible: natural materials, reusable products, zero-waste,

although I'm not perfect.

Sometimes I end up with plastic or disposable items.

But whenever I can I try to go with the more eco-friendly option.

So this top hat potty is for when it's still the newborn phase.

You can put it in your lap and hold your baby over it.

And it comes with this potty cozy but I found that, um, my baby would always just pee on

it so I don't take this especially when we are out and about because it's just another

thing to get dirty.

So I take just her little potty.

And we really liked using this potty with her from birth through about two-months-old.

At that point the pee started kind of shooting right above the potty instead of going in

the potty, so I'll show you what we switched to later.

But for this potty, the hardest thing to find for my diaper bag was a wet bag to put the

potty in.

Say if I use it in a public bathroom, rinse it out, pour it out, and it's still kind of

wet I don't want to just stick a wet slightly dirty potty back in my diaper bag, so I wanted

to find a wet bag to put it in, and it's really hard when you're shopping online comparing

measurements and most wet bags are more of a rectangular shape and so they don't accommodate

like this big round rim on the potty.

So I finally figured out that the Bambino - Bambino Mio wet bag is the perfect size

for The Baby Potty top hat potty.

And I can just put it in this.

And then this particular wet bag rolls up on top, so you roll it and clip it.

And then even if the potty's still a little bit dripping wet with water, maybe has a tiny

bit of pee left in it, um, it's gonna be contained it this wet bag and not get my diaper bag

dirty.

So I actually usually pack my diaper bag facing me.

I put the potty down first in the corner.

And then my really big bag of diapers goes in there.

And the water bottle is in this one.

Okay, so that's the diapering and potty essentials.

And then moving on I like to bring a smaller, um, wet/dry clutch with other essentials and

I just really love the wet/dry ones because whenever anything gets dirty or wet you can

move it into the waterproof pocket and that happens a lot with babies - their things end

up wet or messed up.

So in this wet/dry clutch what I bring is: an extra pair of socks and she wears these

Rock-a-Thigh Baby socks instead of pants.

They're really convenient because if she is in the carrier I can just slip the socks on

her without having to take her out and get her changed.

So I love these, especially for babies who use the potty.

Or even just to make diaper changes easier it's great having long socks.

This is just a little newborn size shirt - a little kimono top in case she gets cold.

And then I also carry this which can be used as a washcloth or a handkerchief.

I used to carry the little packs of Kleenex but I was trying to get away from that so

I originally bought these for myself thinking they could be my handkerchiefs but they look

cute and babyish so Baby can use it too.

And then I bring a burp cloth for her.

And luckily both of my babies are not big spitter-up-ers, so we use this more to get

the drool off her chin but we haven't had to use it too often for a lot of spit up.

And my sister-in-law was really sweet and sewed these for me.

So she gave me a pack of those.

So I put the burp cloth, the washcloth, the shirt, socks, and those are all my supplies

that I usually just keep them in the diaper bag.

We might use one or two while we are out and if we do then I restock this for the next

time otherwise everything just stays in here.

I put that inside, so to show you inside now.

I've got my big wet/dry bag that has the diapers, wipes, change pad, extra diaper cover in it.

I've got my clutch with the extra clothes, burp cloth, washcloth.

I've got the top hat potty down here.

The water bottle next to it.

And another one of my favorite baby items is the Woobie Airwrap blanket.

These are made from organic cotton and what makes it so nice is that it's like a mesh

with holes in it and so I use this for so many different things.

It can be a light blanket when we go in the store that's air conditioned.

It can be used like a sun shade if you have a stroller or car seat you want to drape it

over.

I also use it as a nursing cover.

I personally usually cover up when I'm nursing.

It's fine if you don't.

But for us what I do is I tie a little knot, put it over my head, and then I've got a nursing

cover.

And if Baby falls asleep in there it's sun protection too.

We live in Hawaii.

There's a lot of bright sun here.

So I usually keep this in the corner as well.

And then let's see for the smaller items we have left.

I keep my wallet, this is just a little wallet I picked up in Thailand and it has my keys

inside it.

I keep that in the corner too.

And then I have this little reusable grocery bag.

They're great because these days a lot of places have banned the one use plastic grocery

bags and so you either have to pay for a bag or bring your own bag.

So, one of my friends gave me this and it just happened to be my colors, so I was really

happy this matches with all of my other stuff.

And I can carry this.

Then if I go to Target, go to the grocery store, pick up a couple items, I have my bag.

There's two small little pockets inside the Lorie and so I put this in one.

And then these items are not zero-waste items.

They're in plastic bottles, but they are products I really like.

There's Hyland's Arnica tablets and we've used this when my daughter's in pain and she

needs some pain relief.

We use this instead of Tylenol.

So I like to have my Arnica tablets just in case.

A little tiny thing of Babyganics sunscreen.

We actually don't use sunscreen all the time, even though we live in Hawaii.

We wear our hats.

We wear long sleeve rash guards when we're out at the beach.

We try to stay in the shade.

We try to use more natural ways to avoid over exposure to the sun, but sometimes you might

need some sunscreen like if you're gonna be out all day swimming or snorkeling.

So I have this little one in my diaper bag just in case.

And then an eso lip balm.

I love the vanilla flavor.

But if anyone has some suggestions on a zero-waste lip balm I'm really interested in that because

I looked around.

I even bought one that was a local Hawaii brand in a little tin container, thinking,

oh this is metal, it's not plastic.

And I opened it up and there's a plastic container inside the metal container.

So I've heard of some lip balms that come in like a cardboard tube instead of plastic.

But if you know of any brands, please let me know in the comments what you like as far

as zero-waste lip balm cause I would like to switch to something else.

So this is getting really full.

I'm not sure if I'm even going to be able to zip it closed for you.

I have an extra Snappi.

So when I'm using those fitted Cloth-eez diapers that I showed you earlier they need a Snappi

to close them so I usually have one on my baby, but just in case I put an extra one

in here.

There is a little zip pocket in here for items that I don't usually use but are just in case

items.

I keep them there.

And then, let's see, this is the challenge if I can zip it up.

Yes!

It closes.

And there is a pocket on the back.

But I don't have anything in there right now.

Just to show you.

And then on the front of the Lorie is this little magnet closure pocket.

And originally when I was shopping for a diaper bag I really wanted one with a water bottle

pocket and I thought that this might work by just looking online at the pictures.

And technically I could shove my water bottle in there.

But I ended up just not keeping a water bottle in my bag.

It ends up just being too heavy for me.

So what this pocket here is perfect for is a cell phone.

So I've used a few different cell phones while I've had this bag and they've all fit in there

just fine.

And that way it's really quick and easy if I want to grab my phone.

One of the great things about the Lorie is that it can be worn all different ways.

It has shoulder straps here, so I can throw it on my shoulder.

This strap on the back can be used to wear it as a backpack, which I really like, that's

what I wanted was a backpack style diaper bag.

Or this strap you can hook to these rings and make it a cross body bag.

I'll have to insert some pictures, like showing me wearing this outside as a backpack so you

can get a better idea.

The only thing I don't love about the Lorie is the top corners come out so wide that if

I try to walk through a doorway I often hit my bag on the doorway cause I don't realize

it's a wide bag.

But I do like that if I have it in backpack mode and I really quickly want to get something

out of my bag I can just switch it into this and then usually I can just reach in and grab

something really quickly.

So that's convenient.

And then I wanted to show you one other thing that I usually bring but it's not in my diaper bag.

That is my baby carrier.

So I have a Lillebaby Complete Baby Carrier, but if I was using this I would just be wearing it

when I walked out the door and I would keep my baby's little sun hat, so cute, in

the pocket of the carrier.

So any time we're out together and she needs her sun hat it's already in there.

So if I left the house wearing the carrier, I would just bring along a little fold out

bag so later if I take off the carrier I could unzip this bag.

And this is just another thing I picked up in Thailand, but there's lots of bags this

style these days you can find.

So when I was done using the carrier I could put it in here.

I did want a diaper bag that could fit everything: Like the water bottle, the cloth diapers,

the potty, the baby carrier, but I realized if I got a really big bag like that, like

from Lily Jade that might be the Meggan or their new Jennifer lifestyle bag, it would

be so heavy.

I think last time I weighed this bag packed up it was about 6 pounds once I got it all

packed up and it feels plenty heavy.

If I had a bigger bag I would just put too much stuff in it.

So that pretty much sums up what I was carrying during the newborn stage, so for my daughter

that was about from zero to two months old that's what we had in the bag.

2-3 Months Old Diaper Bag | Cloth Diapers and Travel Potty - Duration: 2:51.

This is Heidi at EC Peesy.

I'm going to show you some of the items we switched around in my diaper bag once my daughter

reached about two months old.

That's when she was outgrowing some of her newborn items and so we switched what we carried.

At first we were carrying Cloth-eez Fitted Workhorse diapers and now we carry Flaparaps.

So I bring along 6 of the organic Flaparap pads and I fold them up ahead of time.

And then one extra Flaparap shell.

I usually don't even need an extra but just in case.

And the 8 cloth wipes, Logan and Lenora change pad.

So, again, I pack all of these into a Planet Wise wet/dry bag.

I put in a stack of Flaparap pads, another stack of Flaparap pads, extra Flaparap shell,

change pad and wipes.

And when she was a newborn we were carrying a top hat potty - The Baby Potty.

But now that she has better stability she can sit supported on a little potty when I

hold onto her.

We've been taking either the Potette Plus, which is a super popular option for EC'ing

families because it's a small potty that you can bring with you anywhere, and it can also

be used for potty training toddlers.

And we have the new silicone insert that goes in it.

So I can bring these two in combination.

Or we also have the OXO Go Potty for Travel.

And so that's another option that we can bring along with us.

I will do a more detailed video comparing the two of those later so you can see more

information about them.

But for now I just want to show you that I carry them in a Logan and Lenora Portfolio.

So this is another wet/dry type bag.

So in the waterproof pocket I put the potty.

I really like using a washable option for carrying the potty because the potty is going

to get germs on it when it's used in the public bathroom and so when I get home I can take

out the potty, wash it really well and then also wash the bag in the washing machine.

And it has a non-waterproof pocket here on the Portfolio where if you wanted to put some

of the disposable bags that go with either of these potties you could put them in there.

And then I could take the Portfolio put it in the diaper bag.

And the wet/dry bag put it in there.

Sometimes I have just too much other stuff in here and it won't fit so I might keep the

potty bag just separate from my diaper bag.

I'm somewhat of an over packer because I like to be really prepared.
