It appears that the National Guard shot and killed an unarmed man (in the back). www.bbc.com/news/article...

Just FYI: Inflation did NOT decline last month. Instead, the Trump Administration adopted a new method of calculating inflation to make it look lower. Americans know what they are paying. They know that prices are rising faster than wages. Trump expects his base to believe his lies.

The United States sells about three times as much dairy to Canada as Canada sells to the United States. Or at least it did before Trump started "helping" the U.S. dairy industry.

Who Cut The Cheese? Trump Did.
The dairy industry was supposed to be the one sector that benefited from Trump’s trade war.
