The fate of Greenland, which President Donald Trump wants to seize, will have an effect on the entire world, according to the New York Times. The reason why, the paper reported Wednesday, is that Greenland has a lot of ice — much of which is allegedly melting. “Most of Greenland’s landmass, which takes up about two million square kilometers in all, or nearly 840,000 square miles, is covered in ice,” the Times noted. “That ice is melting rapidly because the polar regions of the world are warming rapidly, with wide-ranging consequences for the stability of the Earth’s climate,” the paper…

Economic experts have serious doubts that the prices for goods and services will ever be as affordable as they were in 2019 and earlier. Part of the reason why is that they don’t believe prices are moving up and down cyclically, but forever up structurally. “While it might appear that things were more affordable in 2019, this kind of march toward lack of affordability has been going on for a long time,” principal Dan Coakley of PMG Affordable told Fox Business Network. “And it’s gonna take a long time to make a dent in it.” “I don’t think that affordability…

CNN’s Inside Politics host Dana Bash had no evidence on Thursday that the Department of Homeland Security was being untruthful when it said that an ICE agent shot a man in the leg in self-defense during an arrest operation after he joined in with other two other would-be assailants, one of whom was wielding a snow shovel. Nevertheless, Bash tried to cast doubt on the situation, claiming DHS is untrustworthy given the video of the shooting of Renee Good.

It went from being among the poorest African countries to almost the richest country in Africa due to its capitalist economy).

Carla Cunningham was the only member of her party to vote in favor of overriding Democrat Gov.

10 resign over Trump’s effort to sweep a murder by Ice under the rug. I had previously labeled the shooting a homicide. I now think it’s third-degree murder based on the ICE agent’s “f*cking b*tch” comment. Third-degree murder is a category of homicide that generally involves a killing without premeditation or intent to cause death, but with a degree of malice, recklessness, or a “depraved mind” that demonstrates a disregard for human life. Most states do not have a specific “third-degree murder” statute, often classifying such acts as second-degree murder, manslaughter, or negligent homicide. The charge is primarily recognized in…
