THE LATEST FROM/ON IRAN...
*Did Iranian based hackers already try to affect the 2020 American Presidential election???

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…
*Songwriter (“Try”, “Summer Nights”) “busbee” (aka Michael James Ryan) has passed away.
*The victims of the B-17 crash October 2.
*Actress Diahann Carroll (Julia, the original Dynasty) has taken her last bow on life’s stage.

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.
*Provided he said that, what was Trump thinking???
*Why do they want detainees DNA???
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.
TARIFF TALK…
*Now a trade war against the European Union???
POLITICALLY, WITH MOST OF THIS COVERING THE TRUMP/UKRAINE SITUATION...
*A question of loyalty???
*Trump wants to know who the whistle blower is, but one man disagrees. (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
*Trump thinks he’s a “coup victim”???
*Trump still wants Joe Biden investigated, but NOT by the United States! (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
*Did the Ukraine do it???
*A “new defense”???
*Is there a case for impeachment??? It's been done before. (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
*Trump versus Fox News, again.
*No Trump tax returns for California???
*Trump TV???
*Speculation as to who might wage Trump's civil war.
IT’S FACT CHECK TIME!
*Trump and this past week.
MEANWHILE…
*Could the Mitch McConnell Senate rule in favor of Trump??? Maybe. (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
*Whatever happens, Congressional Republicans aren't happy about the Impeachment proceedings. (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
*Is Bernie Sanders out of the running for the 2020 Democratic Presidential nomination???
ELSEWHERE…
*What lies in the future for the Federal Reserve???
*The Supreme Court prepares to hear an abortion issue. What might happen???
*Does this make any sense???
*Does it matter???
*Bed Bath and Beyond plans to have 60 less stores by this time next year.

😀AND FINALLY, SOME GOOD NEWS…
