AMONGST EVENTS AROUND THE W🌍RLD THIS PAST WEEK…
*Unfortunately, the summit between North Korea and America failed, but why??? (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
*After that, North Korea’s Kim Jong-un briefly visited Vietnam, but that trip apparently yielded no results either.
*Muhammadu Buhari has been reelected President of Nigeria.
*Carnival is underway in Rio!
*WHAT is the new fish???

THE TERRORIST REPORT…
*The Free Choice E-zine does not support terrorism, no matter what the “cause” or alleged “justification”. Thus we will only be posting news items in this section whenever terrorists are brought to justice.

😢PASSING PARADE…
*Actress Katherine Helmond (Who’s The Boss?, Soap, Coach) has taken her last bow on life’s stage.
*Bluegrass musician Mac Wiseman of the Foggy Mountain Boys has passed away.
*Actor Charles Craig (Night of the Living Dead) has taken his last bow on life’s stage.
*Jeraldine Saunders, creator of The Love Boat TV series, is no longer with us.
*Actor Nathaniel Taylor (Sanford and Son, What’s Happening?) has taken his last bow on life’s stage.
*Drummer Doug Sandom of The Who has passed away.
*Movie composer Andre Previn (Gigi, My Fair Lady) is no longer with us.
*Bassist Stephan Ellis of Survivor has passed away.

WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA…
THE BORDER WALL-KIDS-IMMIGRATION ISSUES…
*With a new budget in place for the foreseeable fiscal future, since it had no funds to start construction, President Trump declared the lack of a border wall a “national emergency”.
*There have since been legal and legislative battles initiated over this.
NOTE: While we are doing our best to provide coverage, the above is a serious, ongoing issue. Especially since no one has yet to discuss the costs of separating families and who is truly responsible for the deaths of two detainee minors, let alone if anyone might actually be making a profit from this situation.
POLITICALLY…
*Unfortunately, the summit between North Korea and America failed, but why??? (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
*Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize???
*God needs “enforcers”???
*Should the President curse in public???
*Is there any Republican that likes Democrats??? Apparently not. (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
*One man’s view of Donald Trump’s current financial status.
MEANWHILE…
*Michael Cohen testified before Congress about Donald Trump and other matters. The President's reaction to this and what might happen next. (There are 5/FIVE separate links in this item.)
ELSEWHERE…
*The ad campaign in VERY poor taste!
*And the Oscar goes to…🎥
*Here’s your Razzie. Please try to make a better movie next time.🎥
😁AND FINALLY, SOME GOOD NEWS…
*March 2 is the 120 anniversary of Mount Rainer National Park in Washington state!
