The Trump administration on Monday quietly rescinded an order that had blocked a major Dominican sugar producer with political ties to President Trump from shipping sugar to the U.S. because of allegations of forced labor at the company.

Labor groups said working conditions had not changed enough to warrant the removal. The company is partly owned by donors to President Trump.

What a great episode today from What Next!- Mary Harris. This is my favorite podcast in any event, but today is exceptional

Ok. So Trump lies. A lot. EVERYONE knows it. But it doesn't seem to make a dent anymore.

Now, instead of having to point it out every time whenever he lies or says something insane, we should be saying "I'm afraid he's just CONFUSED".

Right now it's "DEI". just a little while ago it was "woke". Before that - "politically correct";"socialist";"commie". It's all the same stuff. Just getting progressive more racist

Installing E.V. Chargers is Finally Paying Off for Retailers
Companies see charging as a potentially profitable business in and of itself, not just as a spur for foot traffic and sales.
