As more reports surface that Hillary Clinton is suffering from signs of dementia, she announced Monday her plans to battle Alzheimer’s. "Almost two-thirds of the people over age 65 who have Alzheimer’s are women. My number one medical goal will be to be find a cure for Alzheimer’s."
A grand jury will not indict anyone in connection with the death of Sandra Bland, who is black was found hanged in a Texas jail cell in July. Bland’s death was ruled a suicide by the county coroner, but family members and protesters around the country disputed that conclusion.
Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) tweeted a statement on the decision.
“Sandra Bland should not have died while in police custody. There’s no doubt in my mind that she, like too many African-Americans who die in police custody, would be alive today if she were a white woman,” it read. “My thoughts are with her family and her loved ones tonight. We need to reform a very broken and racist criminal justice system.”
