All. A gunman is holding more than 30 hostages at a high school. Eight people have been shot, including at least four students. We can only make an appeal to the gunman. Stop. Theres been enough already. An all white jury acquitted four White Police Officers of assault in the videotaped beating of black motorist rodney king. I was scared. I was scared for my life. Across the nation, people were paying attention to this. The officers struck him with batons between 53 and 56 times. It was one of the first cases where there was actual video of a case of alleged Police Brutality. For 13 months, the city of los angeles has been a pressure cooker, building up to the rodney king trial. We, the jury, in the above entitled action find the
from the intersex intersection. And they said, dont go down there. Dont go down there. And they said to dana, whos very blond, very white, dont go down there, and thats the worse thing you can say to a journalist is dont go down there. She turns around. Shes b
And it starts with copper, the mineral copper. Theres copper in brass. Theres copper in bronze. The Statue Of Liberty is sheathed in a layer of copper. Thats about the thickness of two pennies. Pennies themselves used to be copper, but now theyre just coppercovered zinc, which sort of seems sad. It makes financial sense, because copper over time became too valuable to use in something as cheap as a penny, because most of what we use copper for now is conducting electricity. We use copper for wiring. There is a massive global appetite for copper. And the Worlds Largest producer of copper is an american company. Its a company that used to be based in new orleans but now the Mining Company freeport is based in phoenix, arizona. And the freeport Mining Company of phoenix, arizona, they do still mine copper in arizona and
they mine copper in new mexico and in colorado. But they are a gigantic firm. And theyre a global operation. In south america, they mine copper in chile, peru. In indonesi
So outer space still remains almost impossibly far away. Thats very sad. But that wasnt the only option. He also offered one other next best option for humankind. He called it, quote, much more realistic than space travel. He declared that what we humans must do at this point in Human History is that we must move into the sea. We should become sea dwellers. Quote, between cyber space and outer space lies the possibility of settling the oceans. We may have reached the stage at which it is economically feasible or where it will soon be economically feasible. It is a realistic risk. I eagerly support this. The idea was that we should basically build new teeny, tiny personal cities, citystates, unlike Shipping Containers that are floating in the ocean. Impossible and the only way that human sorry, humans can ever be free again is to move into space, presumably with no girls allowed. If we cant move into space, we have to move into the oceans. Weird dude, right . That is why i thought it wa
President elect has nominated Ardent Obamacare critic tom price, a republican congressman from the state of georgia, Congressman Price is very tight with paul ryan, this is according to the House Speaker himself. Here is speaker ryan on local talk radio. What im excited about is tom price who is a very close friend of mine. Tom price is one of the architects of replacing obamacare, of fixing health care. Hes a surgeon, he knows how the law works and hes been the most passionate advocate for patientcentered Health Care Reforms that ive seen in congress and im really excited he is now going to be the quarterback, the point person in the new administration on reforming health care. So that was speaker ryan and as donald trump is adding to his cabinet, hes also making headlines again for one of his tweets. This is what he wrote nobody should be allowed to burn the
the momentum our campaign got in the last two weeks of the campaign i think was largely due to the fact that those obamacare pr
Structure structures in our political system, as envisioned by the founders, that sometimes theyre going to disadvantage democrats, but the truth of the matter is, is that if we have a strong message, if were speaking to what the American People care about, typically you know, the popular vote and the Electoral College vote will align, and i guess part of my overall message here as i leave for the holidays is that if we looked for one explanation or one silver bullet, or one easy fix for our politics, then were probably
initiative and School Nutrition program is a greater threat to democracy than our government going after the press if theyre issuing a story we dont like. I mean thats an issue that i think weve got to wrestle with. And we will. People asked me how do you feel after the election . I say well, look, this is a clarifying moment. Its a useful reminder that voting counts, politics counts, what the President Elect is going to be doing is going to be very different than what
