This is an image of a federal agent shooting chemical munitions at a crowd at point blank range in Minneapolis on the day Renee Good was executed Whatever your feelings on law enforcement, understand they don't apply here whatsoever because ICE categorically *has nothing to do with law enforcement*

We do care. We just didn't know. The state run media didn't share the news. We need more people to care.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

She didn't create the system. It's a Federal Government problem. Too bad it can't be fixed since our Legislative and Justice have been deemed null and void by you know who. If you voted for him, get over it and get on the side of We The People Of The United States. What Can You Do to help fix it?

It ain't her fault. She gave everyone her black girl magic and none of them listened. All they had to do was watch the debate. There were tons of warnings but when we said something no one had time to talk politics. She was the rightful president so we know our election wasn't safe and secure.

Trump’s reality check on Venezuela oil: He rolled out the red carpet for Big Oil at the White House, bragged about reviving Venezuela’s oil and pushing for $100 billion in U.S. investment. Exxon’s chief flat-out called Venezuela “uninvestable” without massive legal and commercial changes.

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

Trump confirmed that Congress was not notified in advance. So, he accidentally admitted that the leak must have come from the executive branch.
Reporter: "Did you notify Congress in advance?"

President Trump: "Congress has a tendency to LEAK. This would NOT be good. If they leaked ... it would've been a very different result!"

They're contracts that payout $1 on a 'yes' or 'no' outcome, with dynamic pricing such that an equal aggregate dollar value is bet on each side (the market just takes a fee). It's a generalization of contracts used to hedge real economic risks (say, drought). See also: medium.com/@sakthi-blog...
