Brother verses brother! they warned. Truckers' convoy! they pleaded. It was all theater. They needed to appease Big Business by finally getting 2006 Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill done and so here we are. BTW, that bill was not written by 'the radical leftists/Marxists" it was written by Lindsey Graham (R), John McCain (R), Arlen Specter (R), Chuck Hagel (R), Mel Martinez (R), Sam Brownback (R) and Ted Kennedy (D). And, for the record, Biden's bill still has a number of the original provisions in it. Gee, it's almost like we have a One Party System pretending to be a democracy. Almost. Philadelphia - addicted to freedom In 2023, homelessness kept rising in Philadelphia for the third straight year, according to the annual point-in-time survey. Despite volunteers' efforts to feed and shelter the needy, it's not really making a big impact. There just aren't enough beds for everyone in shelters. Homelessness hits folks from all walks of life, whether they've always struggled or used to have it all. Feeling unsafe and losing their dignity is something they all share. Many young people, desperate for a break, turn to gangs, drugs, and theft. Whole neighbourhoods are deserted, and those who can't afford a place to stay end up camping out on the streets, forming a homeless community. The documentary explores the legal and social constraints the homeless in Philadelphia face. What do they themselves think may be the solutions? https://odysee.com/@RTDocumentary:4/Philadelphia-addicted-to-freedom:4 Latin America US broke int'l law spying on Venezuela officials via covert program https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/us-broke-int-l-law-spying-on-venezuela-officials-via-covert Argentina’s President pledges to move embassy to occupied al-Quds Argentine President Javier Milei touches the Western Wall, the holiest site where Jews can pray, in Jerusalem's Old City, Tuesday, Feb. 6, 2024.
