A Bakersfield woman was the recipient of a threatening letter loaded with racial slurs from a racist neighbor because she has a Black Lives Matter sign in her front yard.

According to the anonymous correspondent, her sign hurts “the area’s property values.”

Speaking with KBAK, Latoya Johnson explained that she received the abusive letter just days after setting up the sign.

According to Johnson, the letter was loaded with N-words and contained the threat: “We are asking nicely but one time only.”

“Why is my freedom of speech making you upset, that’s my right as an American to have my own freedom of speech, but if it’s not harming anyone or myself why is that a problem,” said Johnson, who stated that she has referred the matter to the local police.

According to the woman, she has no intention of taking the sign down, saying, “I just want everyone to be equal and that’s what it’s all about.”

Lara Trump appeared on Fox News to further the Trump campaign agenda that the 45th president of the United States, her father-in-law, won the election.

"There are about 74 million people out there who do not feel like the result of this election that has been presented is accurate," she told Fox News host Leland Vittert.

In a recap segment on CNN's Reliable Sources Sunday afternoon, chief media correspondent Brian Stelter responded, "Lara Trump is wrong, by the way, to say that every Trump voter feels that this thing was rigged." Speaking of feelings, he added, "Facts do not care about your feelings ... This conspiracy crap is just like Trump's anti-media enemy of the people smear. It's a slow-acting poison that is crippling the American [body of] politics."

With Donald Trump suffering defeat after defeat in the courts as he tries to overturn the 2020 election, and with states poised to certify their vote totals in the coming week, Politico Playbook reports high profile Republicans are slowly emerging and telling the president "It's over," and the time to concede is now.

There are roughly 59 days left of President Donald J. Trump's presidency and what's waiting for the 74-year-old former reality star on the other side of the White House is a whole lot of legal battles, starting with the Manhattan district attorney's ongoing investigation into the Trump family-run business that has the potential to incriminate more than just the president. In this one case alone, if Trump were to be charged and convicted, he could face the prospect of incarceration.

"That case is examining whether fraud was committed when alleged hush-money payments were made ahead of the 2016 election to two women who said they had affairs with Trump years before he became president — claims he denies," The Washington Post reported Sunday. "­Prosecutors also are said to be looking at the possibility that false information was submitted on loan applications to obtain favorable rates and whether any information was manipulated in the pursuit of tax benefits."
