If car companies were smart, they would make 1 low cost car in their lineup, and keep the design for at least 5 years to lower costs. We are rapidly transferring people into poverty. A $5000 car with a good design and low cost replacement parts would be a huge assist to the poor.

South Florida state Rep. Robin Bartleman filed a bill that seeks to rectify what she and other advocates say is a gap in the legal system that makes it easy for domestic violence perpetrators with restraining orders to avoid surrendering their guns, a flaw highlighted by a triple murder in Tamarac.

This morning the very evil President of the USA very predictably mocked the death of a good man. He did so to distract from his crimes, but also because he’s evil and can’t help rejoicing over the murder of his critics.

Go ahead, Donold. Have your fun, when life is done, a nightmare waits for you.

Farming is a $1.7T business, 70% of workers are migrants, 40% of them are undocumented.

As reported in the enclosed, some of the migrant workers in US legally are not showing up for work because they are fearful of ICE-S.

Don't expect prices to fall soon.

Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who tackled one of the Bondi killers, became an Australian citizen 3 years ago.

His deed was "his way of conveying his gratitude for staying in Australia, for being granted citizenship."

He took 5 bullets, and fears he'll lose his left arm.
