DUMBER THAN A ROCK!
It is because of global warming that we have this record Winter storm!
As the Arctic warms, it turns the earth's normally RELIABLE rotating jet stream into a drunkard's merry-go-round of madness, throwing this huge Arctic cold air mass down to the southern US.
The record snow/ice is due to warmer air holding more moisture
Eventually, the cold air will be gone forever.

"Today, general strikes are rare in the #US largely because they are difficult to coordinate. But lawmakers and the courts for decades have also restricted the power of #unions.
The two largest general strikes in US #history are the #Seattle General Strike of 1919, where the city of 315,000 people stopped working, and the #Oakland General Strike of 1946, where nearly 130,000 workers refused to work and shut down commerce throughout the area."

NEW: Complaint Accuses Trump’s Criminal Attorney of “Blatant” Crypto Conflict in His Role at DOJ

#DOJ "refusing to investigate Ms. Good’s death...
But the real explanation may be more sinister. Since she was killed, we’ve seen multiple videos in which #immigration officers refer to her death to threaten people lawfully observing or recording them. The real motivation appears to be to make all the other Renee Goods out there, the liberal “wine moms” watching over immigration raids, wonder if they might be next."

"We use words like “police state.” Then we see it happen. To watch is not the same as to experience it, of course. Of being afraid to leave your house. Or having a classmate, co-worker, or family member disappear. But the images make it more real. It removes any illusion that it could not happen here. It is happening here. We see it happening here, if we are willing to look."
