I love that the Boston cop slide never got fixed and now people just willingly go down it in tribute. It’s basically a national landmark at this point

Putin is threatening to send unstoppable hypersonic missiles to Venezuela that can carry nukes & China backs Maduro.
JFK stood up to Kruschev when he tried to send nukes to Cuba? Sadly, Mr. Trump is no JFK.
So much for Trump's great personal relationship with Putin & Xi!

If you’re eyeing the $80 trillion promise of the Great Wealth Transfer and wondering what it may do for your personal finances, you’re not the only one. Governments are asking themselves the same, according to UBS. trib.al/xl7tVDl
Governments are likely to pillage the $80 trillion Great Wealth Transfer to help balance their national debt burdens, says UBS | Fortune
“It seems unrealistic to suppose that governments will just sit idly by as this wealth moves around. We would expect governments to attempt to mobilize that wealth to help fund their debt,” UBS chief economist Paul Donovan said.
