The numbers, most economists say, indicate immigrants make the country richer. “Without immigration, we shrink as a nation."
Economic Antidote for a Shrinking America: Immigrants
Restaurants, farms and other employers say they need more foreign workers. And economic growth may depend on it, given lower birthrates.Only if we could fix the immigration process and make it simpler and organized.
I’m going to let James Madison, author of the US Constitution, make my point for me: “America was indebted to immigration for her settlement and prosperity. That part of America which had encouraged them most had advanced most rapidly in population, agriculture and the arts.” We are poorer in every way without immigrants.
Of course. They are valuable... This was obviously learned in history but forgotten along the way By some anyway
How long does it take for an immigrant to become Americanized?
Its not "immigration" that makes the country better, it's assimilation.
That’s what t wants- to shrink us in all ways.
We allow over a million immigrants in the country each year. Liberals tend to forget Obama ran his campaign on having secure borders too.
We're good. If we do need them there should be a set limit, only take the best and birthright citizenship should be looked at.
Look at Japan to see what minimal immigration does. Is that where you want to be?
Legal immigration, yes
Pay more
Google it. It's clear.
It is cheap labour, so.
Choose trump for more 5 years and your country will be down economically
No thanks
LEGAL immigrants. This seems like one of those "scientists predict" type of things. ILLEGAL immigrants drive wages down, not to mention the countless other problems they bring.
That's why republicans want to outlaw abortion. They need to boost birthrates. They fail to realize that a sizable portion of these babies would be from poor minorities they so detest.
Legal immigration, is great for the USA, illegal aliens will be the death of our nation, but I guess that is their plan all along
Welcome to immigrants. But LEGAL ones.
Oh okay Soo we're not encouraging women to have babies but we'll be more than happy to import other women's children for work mostly for social security benefits...
immigrants are the true ppl of this land.
Bolshevik playbook: convince people of European stock that overpopulation is a problem and white people are to blame. Get them to stop having as many kids and abort. Then say that the economy is suffering and we must import immigrants to make up the slack. LOL
We are a nation of immigrants you bigoted fools. Look at any history you want about this country immigration is there front and center. You can say whatever you want but immigrants give much much more than they take from this country. Facts matter and your biases don't!
The New Zealand Parliament invited a special guest onto the chamber floor on Wednesday -- a newborn baby.
This is pretty cool, most mum won't breastfeed kids in public places. I love this.
This happens when “we”Vote for smart and kind people to lead our country...
So sweet
Nice💖
I love this
Babies are pretty awesome. 😍
Nice to see here in NZ and it was I surprised to see a speaker of the house feeding a baby,👀👍
Good gesture u deserve to be a father.
So funny. Lots of laughter
Fantastic behavior
I read the article and my soul went to the White House to pee, thank u CNN
Discretion, modesty and professional etiquette are all dead.
Sometimes its takes a village to raise a child.
Once upon a time we were all babies!
This is something working mothers do all the time without getting a medal, standing ovations or getting this kind of publicity
Love it.Good grandad Malard.
What would be even better is the mom breastfeeding her newborn in Parliament😘
Beautiful !!!
Baby used as a prop
Nice gesture
Good one
hope he will allow his security details, drivers, assistants etc to carry/feed babies while at work too. photo attention seekers
Or the Mom could stay at home and raise her child instead the kid playing second fiddle to her job.
how good they are...... new Zealand peoples are really fantastic peoples
I doubt Trump would even know how to hold a baby...
Scientists have created a wearable device they say can predict aggressive outbursts in people with autism.
In an unrelated story - wristbands tend to highly agitate autistic people leading to aggressive outburst.
Crime-ridden San Francisco has introduced new sanitized language for criminals, getting rid of words such as “offender” and “addict” while changing “convicted felon” to “justice-involved person.”
They are so sick in that axis of evil to the extent that they don't even know the English word for crimes and criminals. Trump need to help them ASAP
Sometimes, the hardest thing and the right thing are the same. Trump should sell California to Mexico!!
At this point...all we can do is laugh at the stupidity that they continue to come up with. Which is sad...San Francisco used to be such a great place.
What next? Rapist: unauthorised love maker. Sidewalk pooper: free range defecator. Murderer: euthanizer. Drug dealer: pharmacological entrepreneur. Good grief. Without the electoral college CA could make choices for us all. Let that sink in.
Justice involved person sounds more like what Superman is than a criminal felon.
How’s that working out for you San Francisco? Do you call murderers- unauthorized life enders? You can change all words to as silly frilly as it can be- it’s just more distortion of reality and do you think it helps? No because it’s not facing harsh reality and the criminals dont care
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” G.O. "1984" Folks, 1984 is not an instruction manual!
The great social justice paradise that will ultimately fail.
To fix a problem you must first acknowledge there is a problem. California is doing the exact opposite they are "addressing" their problem by making the language that defines it disappear. The easiest way to make a crime rate go down is to re classify the crimes. Begin by replacing murder with homicide, battery becomes assault, rape becomes sexual assault which is also the same is grabbing someone's butt. There in the final phase where they aren't just rebranding the crimes, but are changing the terms by which they refer to criminals. That way when the sheep watch the news at night they don't get too upset.
I was stationed at the Presidio of San Francisco in the mid 60a and it was a beautiful place then. Great city and great people.
San Francisco used to be a beautiful place
WTF are they smoking in San Francisco!
Truly the land of fruits and nuts .
Amazing that CA continues to support this insanity
I now give you a 10 out of 10 for the most ridiculous PC phrase I have heard so far in my life.
People with common sense and the police officers should pack up and leave California. Other states would love to have experienced police and other people move to their state.
How about cleaning the city as much as you clean the language??? Just a thought.
California really does need to drop off. Too much craziness.
The heck with a state demanding to become independent. Its time that the rest of the country break away from California and let them go down the toilet the rest of the way without the other 49 states with it!
Your trusty democrats at work! What a sad bunch they are!
Worried about what to call felons instead of stopping people from shooting up or crapping on the streets
Law-abiding citizen = unicorn with a diamond horn, rainbow mane, and farts of glitter powder.
Well they couldn't let Berkeley be more "woke" than they are, it is after all a competion. Oh not a competion to actually help their citizens or anything, just to prove the are the most liberal.
The inmates are truly running the asylum in San Fransicko.
WOW the nuts run deep in that city. Shame what government officials have done to one of the most beautiful cities in the country. I dont understand why the citizens of San Francisco haven't ran them out of town.
As the Trump administration separates migrant children from their families and detains adults in squalid facilities, some Jews see echoes of their own dark past.
The liberal Jewish resistance goes far beyond #DisloyalToTrump
Since Trump took office, liberal Jews have joined and organized protests against the Trump administration, and specifically, its controversial immigration policies.The small percent of the Jewish community that does support tRump--all they see is his movement of the US Embassy to Jerusalem and his support of Netanyau's illegal expropriation of the Occupied Territory-and they are happy. The entire Republican-Jewish caucus in the House and Senate (all two of them) are happy--that's it. Kapo was the term used in Germany during World War 2.
Omg if we don't re elect Trump the world will come to its end! He is actually Jesus himself returned to the earth in the form of none other than the great pumpkin Domald J Trump!
The comparison is not the same. One group has a choice and can decide of thier own free will whether or not to follow the process that leads to being detained.....the other did not.
This is getting so old. How about when Obama held the kids in cages? Hmmm? According to the Associated Press fact checking, he did it first...kept them in ill equipped facilities and built a large holding center in McAllen TX, which is still being used. Democrats innacurately blame Trump for creating them...they are actually referring to the chain link fencing built by Obama inside this center...Obama's creatiion.
Illegal is illegal people. They are in better conditions then our homeless. Take care of our own first.
Avoid the company of 45 with trumpers. Those are not #loyal to you. They are plainly #cons.
The children are suffering a great deal and all Trump and his Administration will think about is how much money the NRA is going to give them😩😩😩🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😱😱😱😱😱🥵🥵
I can definitely see the fumes from the ovens that Trump is burning the child corpses in.
God forgive us our apathy
Get rid off Trump so all those atrocious that the world experience under Hitler and the Nazis May never repeat itself, must be stopped right now before it’s too late, USA right now heading the wrong track.
Two shooters have posted exactly this sort of rhetoric.
Fake news false narrative- again
Don't see a tatoo on his arm.
Just when you think he can't get any worse...
Oy vey!
Lois Mullins, fyi.
{Mexicans should read about Jewish History.... They should read.}
So Jewish people support Omar?
Dems please stop killing fetuses . That is murder .
If the modern day liberal jewish population turns from Trump, 1933 will be a picnic. The antifa congress will take everything they hve and destroy their history.
So you'd rather cage the children in adult prisons with their parents? Because that's where they're going for breaking the law by illegally crossing. You guys are full of sh*t.
Oh, Hitler Obama again! Go change your diapers! All you do is whine and lie! #TRUMP2020🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
How the “runner’s high” might be used as a tool to treat depression.
Exercise May Boost Mood for Women With Depression. Having a Coach May Help.
How the “runner’s high” might be used as a tool to treat depression.Oh no- I misread the headline as “couch”...
It helps most if he´s goodlooking
I’ve said it for a long time exercising is no longer for my vanity... it’s for my sanity.
Love my bike!
If the effects of exercise were made available as a pill, it'd be sold out instantly.
Okay... well, when I work myself up enough to get off the couch, and dress.. I'll think about it.
I thought this was widely known???
I saw a man benefit greatly by riding a bike.
You know what would help depression in women? Solving the pay gap, stop telling women what they can do with their bodies, actual equality.... But sure exercise.
Wow novel idea.. do you need a Phd for that insight? 🙄
This is not new knowledge. Exercise is widely touted to help depression. It's just something a lot of people just don't want to do.
and how long did it take you to figure this out?
It helps me.
Women? Not people?
In The New York Times Opinion Section, Yi-Zheng Lian writes, "The people’s war is coming again, with a surreal, postmodern twist: this time, in one of the world’s leading financial centers and against a Communist juggernaut."
Opinion | The People’s War Is Coming in Hong Kong
Side by side, peaceniks and radicals are revving up for the next big move.Regardless of what the world might think that place is like a big city in China akin to New York City...Do you think Washington would be pleased if New York City usurped the power of the swamp?...😳Yes or No?...
the people of hong Kong has ever right to be free, the world should not neglect in this matter, its not about political right its about human right so do every one deserve to live a free life and bulid up a society they wish for, no law has a right to bound human right... every human deserve to build up their own society, its their right and those right should not be taken away
THE PEOPLE'S WAR! With violent participation from 1% of the population whose actions borderline terrorism! Vocal minority is how democracy works!
This won't be pretty.....
HK will end up in ruins... anything touched by the west turns into dust
"Communist juggernaut" we still playing that game?
China will increase the development of Shenzhen and choke off Hong Kong slowly over time financially
What about France?
It's not a war when only one side has an army.
''The people's' war''...what people?

The Chinese communists will kill every last one of those protestors if they need to, although they probably learned a lot from Tianamen and would prefer not to. I can't imagine they will let these protests go into October, when they celebrate the 70th anniversary of communist power.
Don't fight battles you know you will lose ?
China must be stopped.
Why isn't it a capitalist juggernaut?
The clash between HK and China amidst the US - China trade war is theatrical. Huge scale protests for consecutive 2 months, police violence against the civilians and targeted at journalists, white terror among MNC as well as professional bodies in HK, and .... The possible, biggest obstacle against evil Chinese Communism ... Nobody can afford to lose this war.

“At the end of the day, I mean, I fought for this country. I’m a U.S. Army veteran. I’m a wife. I’m a mother. And my whole job is to inspire young women.”
Katie Jo Williams, a conservative beauty queen from Nevada who says organizers stripped her title over her views, joined "Fox & Friends First" Thursday morning to discuss the incident.
I love politics but let's be realistic here. We can't allow polititics in all places at all times. Politics is a dirty game. She should have known better. Period!
I am a veteran and I am married to a disabled veteran. I love seeing a vet winning this BUT...there were rules that she did not follow. She learned in the military to follow the rules. She didn't. Enough said. .
She should have been able to post whatever she wanted on her Facebook page and if it was a rule not to bring in politics, that's fine as long as she didn't bring it up at the pageant or any pageant related events...But if it was just posts on her page that's none of their business.
Sounds like she's not allowed freedom of speech.and thank you for your service.
Thank you for your service....you don’t need a crown...you are beautiful just the way you are
Great contribution 2 America. Service her country & has her individuals views.I see Nothing wrong with whatever side of the track u stand! Last I heard a divided country. Mat have something here....( Where would place that Mason Dixon Line)
Thank you for serving but you should have never brought politics into the pageantry!! We all love our president but never abuse his name and ideologies in violating the rules. You were very inane!!
I hope her future generations can live extremely well off of the lawsuit monies she should win.
The crown has nothing to do with politics. She knew the rules and felt she was above it. Good for the committee. Stay in your lane and out of politics
A Mom, A Veteran...Women will think about this! And should. A beautiful strong woman caught up in political bias..you have inspired others!
She signed an agreement to be "non political", then violated that agreement. Why doesn't the organization have freedom of association? All the conservatives on here obviously hate freedom.
Beauty pageants are both archaic and sexist. I can’t believe that in this day and age people find them relevant.
Thank you for your service. Shame on Nevada.
I will never vote for a liberal. Keep up your good work KW and I think you should get involved with politics. I would vote for you if I could. 🌹🇺🇸
Pageant organizer lead her on. She told her to post pictures of her with conservative politicians and other conservatives but than they disqualify her. They confused the issue.
This should not be! Since when did loyalty to the USA 🇺🇸 and the president become a crime? We have a serious problem in this country and it is not this person! She has the crown 👸 in my book! 😢
It’s a modern day witch hunt. I fear for the souls of those who participate in the 2019 version of McCarthyism.
I think I have to agree with the committee. She knew the rules and signed onto them but then decided not to follow them. Soooo....
The committee doesn't hold a candle to you. Did they ever hear of free speech? Keep speaking out.
There are so many illegal components here to which are in her favor...
Should apply these rules to the Oscars and Emmys.
You signed a contract giving your word and you broke your word. You were disqualified for your lack of ethics.
Democrats: "Now remember, the First Amendment apply to everyone in this country. Exercise it! Use your voice!" Everyone else: "...even if we go against what you want us to believe in?" Democrats: "Except that."
Because the Pageant was not the platform for your political views. It's that simple... Fox News is just as bad as trump
U don't need a crown of fake diamonds when u hav a Halo that shines brighter and truer!!! Bless u!!!!

In a parody of the song "America" from "West Side Story," the President grabs a group photo of Democratic congresswomen and breaks into song.
"They shouldn't be in America
No one but me in America
No taxes for me in America
This is my natural hair-ica," Trump sings.
The women referred to as the Squad then step out of the photo and chase him through the White House as they sing along.
I hv an unending love for this president. I wish i was an American.... though am happy to have come from this other part
Liberals intelligence level education depends on the Simpson’s narrative...but Conservatives are the uneducated ones... ok, then!😂
Q: What is the difference between CNN and the Simpsons? A: There are still a few people that watch The Simpsons.
They should have never put that on TV purchase flaming the fire Trump in prison 2020
If a democrat did this to a republican, it would be totally acceptable because our media is BIAS
Sending thoughts and prayers to the Simpsons
They spew so much hatred for America that maybe they shouldn't be
I did not think your journalistic standards could sink lower than they already were, CNN. Then you posted a story about The Simpsons. Cheers. You have really outdone yourself.
I enjoyed the little clip from the Simpsons. But it took a lot of work to see. I had to go to the CNN website in a browser (not in Facebook) and I also had to pause the ads CNN runs. Sometimes I get the feeling that all the people posting on the internet are actually amateurs. What part of bandwidth don’t they understand?
He will be a parody for the rest of history.
Trump got the position of president democratically as other people got their position in Congress democratically. Trump is not there to cancell any democratic position. He has to accept the democratic results as other people accepted his election.
Ironic timing, it was Matt Groening creator of the Simpsons was just implicated by a former minor girl that she had to massage him on one of Epstein’s sex flights..Notice that wasn’t seen on FAKE NEWS CNN
Except this episode aired five years ago! Woooooh!
That hilarious..bringing back comedy to politics..thats awesome..instead of worrying about being serious all the time.
Wow CNN you never amaze me you could be Talking about Jeffrey Epstein And why his will was signed two days before he die or you can report other news that’s going on in the worldLike why Walmart only has two registers open in the middle of the day is beyond me maybe you can investigate that CNN
If y’all have to post something from the Simpson’s about the president just to feel good about yourself, he’s already won 2020
Democrats are placing to much faith in these lady's. They are the new face of democrats and also its downfall. Trump 2020
One of my favorite musicals ruined. Another thing Trump has ruined for me, just me.
America!!! They hate it, and are sooooo JEALOUS “, That Mr President Donald J Trump is putting the American People First , and not the same old dirty , and corrupt politics!! That will do and say anything to stifle the voice of The People Of The United States 🇺🇸 Of America!
Wow great hateful picture you got painted there. A bit of social engineering are you doing here?
Mother to young daughter. "If you don't stop lying, you'll grow up to be a reporter for CNN".
Nice "NEWS" you got there. You wonder why the President calls you "fake news"? He's echoing what we've been saying since the earliest part of the century.
Very appropriate. A cartoon song for a cartoon president.😂
If they wanted comedy why didnt they mock the two that married their own family members?
When Trump won I told myself the comedy gold would never stop flowing. It continues on.

Republican falls under the word treason and it seems fitting look at Moscow Mitch with that pig trump urging on Putin last election to interfere
Trump just claimed to be a Messiah why should we believe a person who clearly has gone crazy
Trump supporters are living proof that there is nothing Supreme about white people.
What flag omar have.
Many were called few were chosen
Doesn't anyone see that the Republican Party and Trump are calling the kettle black? Not only have the Republicans Party traditionally been the party of vocal anti Semites ...far more succinctly that Omar's comments which have been misinterpreted (e.g. famously, Nixon whos said “And if they put Jews into gas chambers in the Soviet Union, it is not an American concern."), Trump himself has stoked right wing violence, often against Jews with "a campaign-era tweet about Hillary Clinton superimposed a Star of David over dollar bills...and he "said the white-supremacist marchers at Charlottesville last year were “fine people.”" www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2018/10/28/how-much-responsibility-does-trump-bear-synagogue-shoot...
Yeah...well, Donny is wrong, again.
Speaking of charges against Ilhan Omar . . . Doesn't she have a rap sheet, and now under investigation?
Trump is mad
... now, Donald, seriously - do you do children's parties? ...
Looks like the Russian collusion delusion and race card died of natural causes.. Now what do we cry about next liberals? 😂
And yet he’s not a racist
umm....claims? lets see, omar says the words, and they came from her mouth, so its not a claim. its the truth. how about "if jews are so innocent, why are they still jews". if a person made a comment like that about moslems, democrats would be screaming hate speech!
The snot-nosed Brat Pack could use a vacation, may I suggest the Dominican Republic. Be sure to try their mini bar I heard it's to-die-for 🙂

I have lost all patience with people who think Anti-Israel and anti-Semitism are the same thing. These people are retards plain and simple.
The only antisemites I know are Trump and Netanyahu !! Palestinian people are also semites !! Let it sink in !!

I thought Newsome made it legal to shoot at cops?
how is your precious 2nd ammendment working for you America?
How is this possible. The building he was shooting from must have had no guns sticker on it. It makes me think crimianls do not obey the laws
We need peace
Life in prison with no parole for an assault, with a firearm, on a police officer. Problem solved.
Maybe the idea was not to kill but instill fear.
I vote public execution when they catch this nut.
Another "good guy with gun " huh
All this anti police is Obama's doing. How many times did he go on TV and denounce the police.
If he or she were a sniper the officer would be dead dont give this crackpot any more credit than is already bestowed upon him by the liberal media in its quest to disarm the honest law abiding gun owners in America
You see what happens when Nobama, Mayor DeblASSio, All liberal Democrats, and NYPD commissioner O'Neil give in to leftist Asswipes??? Anarchy!!! Back to hard tactics ASAP!!!
yes alot happenen outside there not only my area Los Angeles

There has been a slight increase in the GCSE pass rate and the percentage of top grades this year.
Just opened that envelope? We hope you got what you (or your child) wanted! Now, for what's next? Whether you're celebrating, sobbing or something in between, our chatbot is here to help! 👇https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-45261161
Nigerian GCE/WASCE is harder than UK GCSE. Go and try it
Well done to all those that got the results they needed.
As a French and German teacher I despair. My son did GCSEs last year. They are very very difficult. When is Ofqual going to deal with the fact that the grade boundaries for languages are 10-20% higher than other subjects, putting them off A Level and diminishing modern foreign languages to near-extinction. Oh and yes the reformed GCSEs are only good for the most able. Gove vanity project.
So does this mean that our education professionals are actually doing a good job?
Time to congratulate our hard working young people. Much more productive than banging on about how exams were much easier when we were doing them as seen on previous results days 👍
inflation ?
Means nothing as people still cannot get the job they want to suit their lifestyle. That's life happiness. Without it what's the point of the grades...
Well done to them, way to shove it back in their faces. Pass rates continued to rise and thus they decided to make it harder. They still achieved it.
Congratulations as well as what next?
Can confidently say I’ve never used a thing I learnt for my GCSE’s and I passed them 👍🏼
That'll be Brexit thatl!
And the stress and suicide levels I suppose.
Remember, if you didn't do as well as you hoped, IT IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD. Your family still love you, your mates still care about you and there are other options. "Pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start all over again" not literally but life does not begin and end with these results. Good luck to all of you in the future.
The government push for better teaching, then when exam pass rates go up they panic and make the exams harder. But if teaching is getting better the pass rates should be going up. The kids are working harder and better. Let them enjoy their sucess
Today's the day that lots of young people get written off all because of a preconceived belief that grades at 16 define you.
Now get a job and pay into the glorious system 😁
Weldone to all✅💯
I only had to do 3 subjects in the number grades in 2017 when they first came out (maths, eng Lang and literature), and I can tell you that they were so challenging, most of the stuff on the exams was new stuff they’d taken from a level specifications. So, for all of the young people to be doing this well is such an achievement under the difficult nature of the exams, we should all be proud of them!!!🌟
So the grade boundaries aren't changed in the same way they admitted to doing so for A levels?????
I was at school in the 1970s and at my school you got a qualification if you knew someone who could read?
Typical... people who didn’t take the exams have an opinion on how easy they were. Firstly not only does it devalue the hard work our kids have been put in to pass them but it also makes those that didn’t pass feel worse. I helped my daughter revise for her maths GCSE and she was doing things I had to do for my professional accounts exams so think those who haven’t had any dealings with these exams need to keep their mouths shut on all honesty than devalue the kids.
Welldone kanjari
Follow the money!
If you didn't get the results you wanted then don't worry, life as we know it will soon cease to exist x

The Rock is a ❤️ shape ! Indeed She has also a good ❤️ Heart
Bless x
Sounds like a good kid and her parents should be proud of her for doing the right thing
that's very sweet and insightful of her, it's a shame that losers had to ruin the story with Dump Truck. don't we see enough of his orange holiness?
You ever wonder why God blessed us with President Trump? I wake up refreshed everyday knowing we have the right man at the right time in charge. His tireless efforts are contributing to society daily. The whole country is upbeat! His patriotism fuels us on a daily basis.
❤❤❤
I'm still crying from the last time CNN posted about this.
If I said the way I feel for you would you never change
I'll bet she's holiness.......
We need to mail Melania Trump back to Russia and there should be no apology after that

Conan O'Brien gets advice from the Property Brothers on how best to buy Greenland for Trump
It turns out that President Trump was actually very serious about buying Greenland from Denmark, and he was so offended when Denmark's prime minister called the idea "absurd," he called off a forthcom...Authorities recently cleared 11 tonnes of rubbish from the world's highest mountain.
What I dont understand is why if people are so keen to climb Everest why do they leave rubbish there? It seems to me that is all about them and disrespectful to the wonderful environment. I think that climbers should be banned altogether.
Good idea. I think too many people are seeing Everest as some kind of trendy challenge instead of a very serious thing. And they end up in a world of trouble because of it.
It would be better, if we give rest to Mt.Everest 🇳🇵 for a while.
Imagine climbing Everest and there being a queue!
Last time I visited Earth it was in 2010, I hope you are enjoying , regards from Mercury.
About time. You would think the people climbing Everest (or any mountain for that matter) would have more respect for their surroundings. For shame...
It's time for the Everest to get a holiday. They should close the mountain for any tourist untill it has been all cleaned up and send the bills to those who climbed the mountain through the years! You can't clean up, you pay!
'I love Everest, I made it to the top. Don't give a f.. K what I left there 'if it is the motto, don't climb at all. Don't please pollute one of the wonders of the world.
"11 tonnes of rubbish." Kind of a messed up way to talk about all those people that died and got left up there.
One of the most impressive and dramatic sites a person could try to reach. It’s takes commitment and a driver to push yourself as hard and far as a person could. Then to do something like this is beyond belief, beyond disrespect and understanding Just yet another constant proof that the human kind is nothing more then a blood sucking parasite on this planet
Time they stopped the "bucket listers" and other glory seekers littering the mighty mountain
If I drop rubbish in my street it's a £80 fine,yet I can climb a beautiful mountain and leave whatever crap a want.funny world.
That image is mental. Is it a queue of climbers waiting to summit or summat?
Why the hell did they allow throw away plastic in the first place? Did they really think the "special ones" would bring the rubbish back with them?
Nepal should fix their airport first for safe landing. Lost my brother last year. Thousands of people died for this. What are they doing about it to avoid future crashes???!!!!
Rest of the world to climb Everest... sherpers, ropes, oxygen, mountaineering paraphernalia. Nepal, litter picker stick and a few bin bags. Haha.
if so many people have now trekked up the slope, its hardly a remarkable thing to do anymore...a vanity project rather than achievement...its like the Trivento lads who think going on holiday or playing a game of rugby is something to be smugly proud of....is this the 21st Century where getting to the bus stop in the rain is a triumph of will?
The average cost of the clime is $45,000. A group clime ranges from $25,000 to $85,000. I can think of many better things to do with that kind of money.
It should be strictly followed by people who go there ,otherwise please don't go. If more people will go, the place as beautiful as heaven will be ruined .
When will people stop polluting this earth. There no place for rubbish bins at the World highest mountain.
Its hard job to clear it however its easiest for polluting it - the pride of World - Mt Everest
if bear grylls was there for shooting his survival show,he'd have used that plastic bit to something. as a sleeping jacket for eg
We need to stop enabling people who do things to impress people on Facebook and Instagram, like showing off which animals they shot or the size of the fish they caught and instead applaud those who genuinely care about the environment and humanity.
We all need to participate, clean your garden, clean your streets, clean the sea, if you see someone throwing plastic,paper anything on the floor shout! if you see litter on the beach, by a river, in a bush pick it up. CLEAN and EDUCATE.
How about if you take it up with you, you bring it back? But folks can't even do that at the seaside, so I guess it's just a pipe dream for Everest.

‘Stranger Things’ has tripled Eggo waffles sales in this Georgia grocery store
After "Stranger Things” premiered in 2016, it became routine for businesses in Palmetto, Ga., to welcome fans from around the globe.Denmark's prime minister called Trump's idea of buying Greenland "absurd." Trump said her comment was "nasty."
Trump Criticizes Danish Prime Minister for Rejecting Greenland Sale
President Trump accused Denmark’s prime minister of “blowing off the U.S.,” a day after he canceled a scheduled trip to Denmark after its leader rejected possible talks about selling Greenland t...Yes, there is a history of land purchases, from the Louisiana Purchase to the Gadsden Purchase and onto the Alaskan Purchase, but, helloooo, times have changed!
One can ask to buy anything but if the other party says NO, don’t take it against them and cancel a whole state visit because of something so small! Denmark prepared for his visit and he cancels because the PM said Greenland is not for sale! He’s way too sensitive. Doesn’t have the temperament fit for his position!!
As usual, a big deal is made over anything he says! Our Presidents honesty is not in question, but the constant haranguing is getting so predictable! At least the subject is different!
Just take it by force. Dispatch the secret service to Thule and have them raise our flag.
Trump treats foreign dignitaries so kindly and considerately that he has a right to be upset she had the gall to call the idea “absurd”, right?!!! 🙄
Can we trade Greenland for Vermont and include a senator in the deal?
Art of the deal 😂
I'm sure she wouldn't be his first choice. Believe him. (Oh this man.)
What do you expect from a man with a limited vocabulary, very limited.
Time to resign. Our "leader" is not well. Just listen to his statements in the last 72 hours! Invoke 25-th!
This is what happens when your dad was not affectionate with you.
Greenland is not Denmark's, to sell: "Greenland is not a part of Denmark, but it is one of the three constituent countries of the Kingdom of Denmark, aka the Danish Realm. The other two countries is the Faroe Islands and Denmark. Greenland has had "self rule" since 1979."
He DESPISES it when women disagree with him. It would be delightful to watch Elizabeth Warren incite a stroke the first night of presidential debates.
China has 90 % of the rare-earth market right now. Greenland is partners with China on rare-earth mines there. Rare-earth minerals are essential for economic and national security. The US spends millions on Greenland protection. The Danish Prime Minister has some nerve talking to us ( US ) that way !
This is some what justified especially after hearing 1 Greenland representative say that she believes that the Danish parliament would have handled the matter differently if it was Obama who had made the inquiry. The USA should be wary of potentially having Chinese presence on their doorstep
Wouldn’t it be cheaper and faster to just invade Greenland?
He's so mature. Anyone does something he doesn't like he calls names and has a tantrum. How can anyone look at him with anything but pity and disgust? How??
Calling it absurd is about the kindest thing she could have said about it.
Donnie just choked on a Danish and sputters out another tweet, showing his art of the deal. What a gem.
He didn't criticize her for rejecting a proposal for sale. He chose to walk away from talking to her in a personal meeting after finding out was a snark she is.
He is such a snowflake. He probably have to find a cold place to avoid melting
With the US budget in mind - why buy Greenland - since Denmark & Greenland let USA have your defense system in Thule for free ... and can free open new bases there if needed - for the protection of USA. It is how true allies help each other 🇩🇰🇬🇱🇺🇸
Was Denmark even for sale?
When a man uses makeup and a fake wig everyday to lie for living, it’s obvious who’s the nasty 🤢 one here. #resist

Electoral College members can vote for the presidential candidate of their choice and aren't bound by the popular vote in their states, a U.S. appeals court in Denver ruled.
Electoral college members not bound by popular vote, court rules
Electoral college members can vote for the presidential candidate of their choice and aren't bound by the popular vote in their states, a U.S. appeals court in Denver ruled.okay i read it differently ... then let's elect the electoral college ... no ... i know ... it's come to fruition in my life i think it's an old walt whitman saying ... speak your mind to the fullest every day and even if you contradict yourself the next day continue to speak to the fullest every day ... i think i did that here .. it just read differently to me this time
Do you still think your vote matters? I sell bridges if you do.
Dems like the EC as long as their candidate wins. First time they lose, they want to throw it. Hey, put up an actual electable candidate and you'll win WITH the EC.
This is a bad precedent, but I believe the justices are interpreting the constitution as written regarding the electoral college. The ec was just not a well implemented concept in my opinion. It left too many things unspecified. The case (Baca v. Colorado Department of State, No. 18-1173 10th Cir. 2019) was presided by a 3 justice panel: one Clinton appointee, one Obama appointee, and one George W appointee. And the Clinton appointee was the only justice to dissent the ruling. Justice Holmes (a Republican appointee) was key in concluding the state’s removal of Mr. Baca and nullification of his vote were unconstitutional. Clearly both sides of the political aisle should not want this as it can allow ec members to vote against the candidate you and your peers voted for.
Which means voting really doesn’t matter in presidential elections. Billions of $$s and countless hours are spent on an exercise in futility. Thanks for the clarification. 💁🏻
So, what would the point of voting be, then? If they can just junk the will of the people and do what they want? Seems capricious and tyrannical.
I have long been amused by the social fascists (Democrats) efforts to circumvent the Constitution. If they weren’t so damned inept it might be worrisome.
How come candidate with less vote win the election. Electoral vote just doesn't make sense
It’s called constitutional law. The electoral college exists, specifically, to be independent of the popular vote. Otherwise populations of large states and urban centers, would dictate all election results. It’s a shame that these so called “journalists” never passed a high school civics class.
We need a new constitution, and the U.S. appeals court in Denver needs to be dissolved and the judges deported to Moscow.
I love the comments from Americans claiming this is so wrong but they are silent on lobbyists in Washington.
We are going to have to take to the streets at some point. What’s to stop members of the electoral college from just getting paid off by the wealthy to vote for who the wealthy want?
This is why we have the electoral college. LA SF and NY would ruin the country
Well, it’s much easier & potentially cheaper to “Buy-off” some 400-500 electoral voters, than the majority of 330,000 million voters!🤬
This has always been the case
So our vote really doesn't count. What a crock
Then why vote at all?
Times Have changed since 1887
No need to bother about voting. In fact, massive voting strikes should highlight the lunacy and how far off the rails the U.S. once a model for the world has gone. Sounds like ideology not law or common sense is the driving force.
why, I ask, are people voting then AT all, if the only vote that actually counts (without restrictions) is that of one person? why bother?
Scrap the whole thing! 1 citizen, 1 vote!
Duh... and those who failed US government .. the electoral college this has been place for a very loooong time ... smh... voting doesent matter when North Dakota has four people and yes that counts as 1 vs your 8 million in la county .. and the rest of the state counts as a whole big “1” ... for ur next president ...as for laws ... etc etc bills .. measures etc etc that’s when your vote counts
So, how do I get this job?
If the democratic party has their way those blue dots will dictate America's future.
EC is so out dated, worn out and wrong for this the 21st century. TERMINATE NOW!!!
A heavy decorative marble ball linked Todd Barket to the 1998 murder of 68-year-old Sondra Better, who was just days away from retiring from her job and celebrating her 50th wedding anniversary.

A heavy decorative marble ball linked Todd Barket to the 1998 murder of 68-year-old Sondra Better, who was just days away from retiring from her job and celebrating her 50th wedding anniversary.How did the fingerprints provided to the potential employer find their way to the police? Are the nursing homes in FL required to submit that kind of info to law enforcement?
I'm kind of shocked that more cold cases aren't being submitted for DNA testing using the new process to find relatives of the DNA retrieved at the crime scene. Give survivors the answers they deserve.
Sad story please read
excellent work by the police.
Though the marble ball had led them to Barket, it was the trail of blood on the consignment shop floor that proved he had killed Sondra Better more than 20 years earlier. , We want a Lie -Detector - Test and see what it says
What a story!
Why was his blood anywhere? Was he cutting himself?
