One Thing The Trump Rally Disproved
That visiting downtown Milwaukee at night is unsafe! Despite the fear mongering and rumors of the past, thousands of suburban white people attended a large event in central downtown Milwaukee…without a care in the world. How did that happen?
USDA Removes Wakanda As Free Trade Partner!
A little comic relief today. But the USDA website apparently included Wakanda as a free trade partner. You know, Wakanda, the fictional home of Marvel Comics super hero Black Panther!
Wakanda’s free trade agreement with the United States wasn’t forever.
