*America issues sanctions against human rights violators, thus supporting the democracy seekers. (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)
*Did China try to place a spy in Australia’s government???

THE TERRORIST REPORT…

THE CLIMATE CHANGE CHRONICLES…
*The Trump Administration’s version of the Environmental Protection Agency ISN’T doing its job???
*If President Trump won’t attend, Congress will.

😢PASSING PARADE…
*The victims of the 2019 Albania earthquake.

WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA…
THE POTENTIAL IMPEACHMENT…

*The report will be ready before Christmas.
*Will the Supreme Court’s eventual decision on Trump’s tax returns affect proceedings??? For now they’ve extended the hold over not looking at them. (There are 2/TWO separate links in this item.)

*Get ready!
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.
*Then why do it???
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…
*Naval Secretary Richard V. Spencer is no longer in office.
*Sorry Mister Trump. No proof.

*WHO did WHAT now???
MEANWHILE, IN CONGRESS…
*Congress was on its Thanksgiving break from November 23-December 1, 2019.
*Who should be Georgia’s next Senator???
*Danielle Stella can no longer Tweet.
*How wealthy is YOUR Senator???

ELSEWHERE…
*The New York Times is STILL undecided???

*McDonald’s has decided to settle a California law suit.
*Serendipity!
*Toys R Us will return!
*No more Arena Football.
