Better Than Expected! U.S. Economy Added 1.37 Million Jobs in August, Unemployment Fell to 8.4%

Better Than Expected! U.S. Economy Added 1.37 Million Jobs in August, Unemployment Fell to 8.4%:

The economy has added around 10.5 million jobs in the past four months. The increase in the ranks of employed workers shows that companies ramped up hiring as the economy reopened and consumers came back to stores, restaurants, and other businesses that had been shuttered in March and April. Despite the gains, total employment in August was lower than its February level, highlighting just how deep the pandemic cut into what had been the strongest jobs markets in decades.

College Prof. Says Inner-Cities Have Higher Temperatures Because Of Racism - The Lid

College Prof. Says Inner-Cities Have Higher Temperatures Because Of Racism - The Lid

• Do you know why inner cities are hot? Because they have fewer trees. Do you know why they have fewer trees? Racism. 
• So says Christopher Schell, Assistant Professor at the University Of Washington, Tacoma, whose specialty is urban ecology.

Schell (and seven co-authors) published a paper that looked at the correlation between rising temperatures and inner-city minority neighborhoods. 
“Where the buildings are, where the impervious surfaces were essentially that hardcover, right, the concrete, where the trees are, that’s all influenced by the policies that say where stuff is going to be and those policies themselves are racist,” Schell said.
...Moreover, it claims that “insidious white supremacist structures that perpetuate racism throughout society compromise both public and environmental health, solidifying the need to radically dismantle systems of racial and economic oppression.”...Read all.

The Trayvon Hoax – The New Neo

The Trayvon Hoax – The New Neo

• The importance of the Zimmerman/Martin case cannot be overemphasized. It’s the event that was the kickstarter for the organization BLM and the spreading of the leftist narrative about innocent blacks being killed in droves by cops.

"...The Trayvon Hoax, which refers to the claim that the prosecution’s case against George Zimmerman was built almost entirely on a fraud in which they substituted a fake witness for the real one.
...by the time I was finished watching, I felt that Gilbert had presented a remarkably compelling and comprehensive case, which was not my initial expectation at all.
Nor has anyone refuted it, although he started this tack in the fall so they’ve had plenty of time. 
Oh, they’ve excoriated him (and Zimmerman) plenty. 
But I could find nothing that dealt with the heart of the actual research he’s done and the allegations he’s making...Read and view all!!!!!!

If you’re interested in reading the document filed by Zimmerman’s lawyers in his suit, see this. 

And there’s also Gilbert’s book, which you can find here..."

Democrats want no less than total government control in health care | TheHill:

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are all in, as many on the left would like to move right away. Most House Democrats, along with several top Senate Democrats like Harris and Bernie Sanders, are sponsoring legislation that would eliminate nearly all private and employer health insurance, as well as Medicare and Medicaid, and replace these traditional programs with their new single payer system of national health insurance.
