Hundreds  attend  the funeral of Sandra Bland, an African American woman who was found dead in a Texas jail cell after being arrested following a minor traffic violation.  Sandra Bland's funeral service was held at the DuPage African Methodist Episcopal Church in Lisle, Illinois.

On July 10th, the young woman was pulled over on a small road just northwest of Houston, Texas, by white Texas state trooper, Brian T. Encinia,  She was stopped for failing to signal a lane change. The Trooper initially stated that he was going to give Ms. Bland a warning. Unfortunately that's not what happened.

From the Dash-Cam Video, it was clear to see that Ms. Bland was irritated with the stop and did express her feelings to Mr. Encinia.  He asked Ms. Bland to put her cigarette out. She refused and he ordered her to get out of the car.  Officer Encinia threatened to light Ms. Bland up with his taser is she did not comply. Bland was taken into custody and charged with assaulting an officer. Her bail was set at $5,000.00. Three days later on July 13th, she was found hanging in her jail cell with a plastic trash bag around her neck.

The medical examiner determined that Ms. Bland's death was a suicide.  However, her family believes that foul play was involved. They insist she had good things happening in her life including the fact that she was looking forward to starting a new job. Ms. Bland told the jailer that she tried to commit suicide in 2014.  Ms. Bland was a well know activist who was very involved with "Black Lives Matter."

IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL

7/24/2015

 
The United Kingdom, France, China, Russia and Germany  along with the European Union, have achieved a long-term comprehensive nuclear deal with Iran that will prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.

This deal stands on the foundation of the Joint Plan of Action (JPOA), achieved in November of 2013, and the framework for this Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), announced in Lausanne on April 2, 2015 that set the requirements for the deal.

This deal ensures IAEA access when needed, where needed to verify the peaceful nature of Iran’s nuclear program. 


Under this deal:

Building a nuclear bomb requires either uranium or plutonium. But thanks to this deal, Iran’s four possible ways to leverage those fissile materials are blocked.

Iran must reduce its stockpile of uranium by 98%, and will keep its level of uranium enrichment at 3.67% , significantly below the enrichment level needed to create a bomb.

HOW MUCH IS DONALD TRUMP REALLY WORTH?

7/23/2015

When you think of Donald Trump, you think of grand hotels, luscious resorts, beautiful golf clubs and fabulous properties in the most beautiful cities around the world.  You might think of that wildly popular television show, "Celebrity Apprentice." You know the one where Mr. Trump at the end says "You're Fired!" You think of this crazy rich, tall, loud, businessman/celebrity /reality star.  But American's next Commander in Chief? 

When asked why Mr. Trump believes he is qualified to be the next Republican President Of The United States?  It's not because he has governed a state, or been elected mayor of a major metropolitan city, or served as a member of congress. He says, it's because he is really smart and can turn America around and make it great again.

Mr. Trump is quite proud of the fact that he is not a politician. He thinks that our leaders are stupid. According to Mr.Trump,  America is on the edge of financial ruin and only he and his business expertise can save the country.

Donald trump says that he will be the greatest jobs president that God ever created. He will bring back jobs from China, Japan and Mexico. "I’ll bring back our money. There is so much wealth out there that can make our country rich again. We’re dying, we’re dying, we have to do it. We need the right people." 

Donald Trump says that he will stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons,  stop illegal immigration from Mexico by as he puts it, "building a great, great wall on the southern border." He also vows to immediately terminate President Obama’s illegal executive order on immigration and repeal "Obamacare."

So how much is the celebrity businessman really worth? Last week "The Donald" proudly boasted that he has a fortune of about $10 billion dollars. Impressive right? Lucky for us, presidential candidates are required to file personal financial disclosure reports detailing their finances. 

On Wednesday,  The Federal Election Commission released the 92 page document, which lists Mr. Trump's assets at $1.4 billion dollars. How can this be? $1.4 billion dollars isn't close to  $10 billion dollars.  Mr. Trump, we gotcha! Not really. Presidential candidates are only  required to list their assets, liabilities and income from the previous year in broad ranges.  For now, it is impossible to to know exactly how much Mr. Trump's financial net worth is.
