Legal and illegal migrants sent $53.4 billion in remittances back to Mexico and Central America in 2018, or more than double the cost of building a border barrier on the U.S.-Mexico border, according to a World Bank report.
Remittances to Mexico reached $33.7 billion in 2018, up 21 percent from roughly $27.8 billion in 2016, the bank reported.

The outflow to Central America rose to $19.7 billion in 2018, up from $15.8 billion in 2016, according to the bank.

January 4, 2019
Prosecutors contend that Gallagher, 39, is a callous murderer who stabbed to death the teenage detainee on May 3, 2017 near the Iraqi city of Mosul and also gunned down unwitting civilians with his sniper rifle, bragged about racking up kills and threatened to intimidate and publicly out SEAL buddies who complained to superiors and investigators about him.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr: Vaccine Big Pharma Has Total Legal Immunity…
January 4, 2019
“The pharmaceutical industry is so powerful,” he explained. “They give $5.4 billion a year to the media. They’ve gotten rid of the lawyers, so there is no legal interest in those cases. They have really been able to control the debate and silence people like me.“
Asked how things could get this bad, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. explained that Congress granted Big Pharma “blanket legal immunity” when it comes to vaccines.
Big Pharma became a law unto themselves. They can put toxic ingredients in your vaccines, they can seriously injure your child – but you cannot sue them.
“What you have to understand is that the vaccine regimen changed dramatically around 1989."
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is undoubtedly one of the few people in politics with a shred of integrity and moral decency. He's a patriot.

Stunner – Bolsonaro Open To “U.S. Strategic Alliance” Military Base in Brazil…
January 4, 2019
...it’s worth remembering that Brazil is the “B” in the ‘BRICS alliance’. Before U.S. President Donald Trump took center stage in the world of international influence, the former governments of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS) had formed a coalition. Each nation represented an enlarged -and growing- regional trade/economic influence.
[...]
What we now see is two central regional components of the BRICS alliance, India and now Brazil, allied in economic ideology with President Trump.In essence: Russia is bleeding financially (oil revenue dependent). China is being weakened during the U.S. -vs- China trade confrontation. And India along with Brazil are joining with the U.S. This fractures the BRICS alliance.
Dems introduce bill to “eliminate electoral college” and to stop the presidents from pardoning themselves…
January 4, 2019
Rep. Steve Cohen (D-Tn.), introduced the constitutional amendments on the first night of the 116th Congress, both digs at Trump.
“Presidents should not pardon themselves, their families, their administration or campaign staff," Cohen said in a statement. "This constitutional amendment would expressly prohibit this and any future president, from abusing the pardon power.”
It is illegal to pass laws designed to target one person, and this alongside the Pardon change, is arguably designed at Trump.
"More than a century ago, we amended our Constitution to provide for the direct election of U.S. Senators," he added. "It is past time to directly elect our President and Vice President.”
What kinda moron would think that's a valid comparison? These people are sick in the head.
If they eliminate the electoral college, this country will be in big trouble. The electoral college is there to make sure all the states count. Not just the ones with the most people. The elimination of the electoral college is basically the end of the USA. There's no way the entire country is going to just give up a third of the government to four states.
The thing is, the DEM's know this won't pass. They will just keep trying to pass stupid bills like this for the next 2 years. Without the Senate, they won't get anything done other than grandstand. So don't be surprised to see more stupid people put forth more stupid bills.
