THE WEEK IN REVIEW: OCTOBER 13-19, 2019

OCTOBER 24 IS UNITED NATIONS DAY.

AMONGST EVENTS AROUND THE W🌍RLD THIS PAST WEEK…
*Why has Russia started attacking Syria since American military forces were withdrawn??? (There are 3/THREE separate links in this item.)
*What will happen when the Turkey cease fire in Syria ends??? Well, considering it’s already been broken… (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
*United States President Trump’s current opinion on the above.
*Will Brexit happen??? It's not looking good at the moment. (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
*What's happening in Lebanon.
*Tunisia has a new President.

THE CLIMATE CHANGE CHRONICLES…
*Fur products will no longer be available to purchase in California, USA as of January 1, 2023.😁

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…
*The innocent victims of Typhoon Hagibis.
*Musician Steve Cash of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils has passed away.
*Baltimore/Maryland’s House of Representatives’ Elijah Cummings is no longer with us.
*Actor Patricio Bisso (Kiss of the Spider Woman) has taken his last bow on life’s stage.
*Radio Hall of Famer Bob Kingsley has passed away.
*Actress Leah Bracknell (Emmerdale, The Royal Today) has taken her last bow on life’s stage.
*Actor Bill Macy (Maude, My Favorite Year) has taken his last bow on life’s stage.
*Former Governor of Michigan, USA William Milliken is no longer with us.

WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA…
THE BORDER WALL-KIDS-IMMIGRATION ISSUES…
*With families being separated upon apprehension, President Trump declared the lack of a border wall a “national emergency”. There have since been legal and legislative battles initiated over this.
*Trump keeps vetoing any measure that rescinds his “national emergency”. Can the Senate overturn his latest veto??? NOPE! (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
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 FOUR detainees (known to date), let alone if anyone might actually be making a profit from this situation.
POLITICALLY, WITH MOST OF THIS COVERING THE TRUMP/UKRAINE SITUATION
*Trump may want to stop the impending Impeachment proceedings, but witnesses ARE talking! (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
*Did Trump have a “meltdown”???
*Trump will soon need to consider finding a new Department of Energy Secretary, while the DoE says it will NOT cooperate with the Impeachment inquiry. (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
*New questions arise concerning Trump’s tax returns.
*It's getting harder to be a pro-Trump Republican.
IT’S FACT CHECK TIME!
*The latest Democratic Presidential Candidate Debate.
MEANWHILE…
*Trump’s own party doesn’t like his actions concerning Syria!
*Is Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell making Trump’s possible impeachment a Republicans versus Democrats issue???
*McConnell versus Nancy Pelosi over impeachment.
*At least one Republican will not be in Congress come 2021.
*Not an auspicious start to a campaign.
ELSEWHERE…
*A Federal Judge will not allow transgender patients to be covered by “Obama Care”.
*Johnson and Johnson may not owe a court settlement after all!
*Will the General Motors strike soon end???
