If Guiliani is a facilitator to Trump's coercion of Ukraine's government he is also acting against NATO (click here). Ukraine is engaged in a conflict with Russia, an enemy of the USA and NATO. If Guiliani is using the power of the USA to carry out a political directive and disregarding the USA's national security, that is treason. What does he think he is doing? I am not surprised, but, if Guiliani is manipulating the Ukraine government he is in very deep trouble. He is not on USA soil anymore.
The facts about Hunter Biden is well known. I think it is up to Hunter Biden and his lawyer(s) to bring this forward to end the inflammatory plans of Trump. Ukraine needs the monies already appropriated by Congress. Petty politics is getting in the way. The corruption in Ukraine is well known. This is not new.
When Ukraine was transitioning to a relationship with Europe, the corruption was a very big issue and it was high on the agenda to end it.
Hunter Biden should not remain in shadows created by Guiliani. Guiliani is a snake, if he can serve the devil he will. I think Hunter needs to speak out about this and be as transparent as he can considering he was serving as a member of the board of a private company. Hunter needs to call out Guilinai and Trump and demand the monies the USA appropriated to Ukraine to be sent immediately. I think Hunter is the only one that can do this successfully. It is a matter of national security. An exclusive interview would help to reverse Trump's hideous and Un-American plans. I am quite confident the son of Joe Biden is more than competent to do this and clear this up once and for all.

Washington — When Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. (click here) traveled to Kiev , Ukraine, on Sunday for a series of meetings with the country’s leaders, one of the issues on his agenda was to encourage a more aggressive fight against Ukraine’s rampant corruption and stronger efforts to rein in the power of its oligarchs.
But the credibility of the vice president’s anticorruption message may have been undermined by the association of his son, Hunter Biden, with one of Ukraine’s largest natural gas companies, Burisma Holdings, and with its owner, Mykola Zlochevsky, who was Ukraine’s ecology minister under former President Viktor F. Yanukovych before he was forced into exile.
Hunter Biden, 45, a former Washington lobbyist, joined the Burisma board in April 2014. That month, as part of an investigation into money laundering, British officials froze London bank accounts containing $23 million that allegedly belonged to Mr. Zlochevsky....

The locals never wanted the golf course, but, Trump promised the moon and Scotland bought it.
By Glenn Campbell
Donald Trump came to Scotland (click here) to build the world’s greatest golf course on spectacular sand dunes on the Aberdeenshire coast.
He fought and won the planning rights to do so - bulldozing his way through environmental objections with the bold promise of a £1bn investment and thousands of jobs.
In pursuit of his vision, he clashed with politicians, nature lovers and even his own neighbours. In Scotland they’ve been hitting back at Mr Trump for more than a decade....
It was a unique and beautiful place on Earth.

The construction of the course has severely affected the dunes at Menie Estate
Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) (click here) recommended the area be removed from the list, claiming construction of the course had severely affected the dunes at the Trump International Golf Course at Menie Estate, classed as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).
Sally Thomas, SNH’s director of People and Nature, said: “The denotification of SSSIs is unusual.
“However, in this case we have found there is no longer a reason to protect the dunes at Menie as they do not include enough of the special, natural features for which they were designated.
“Most of the time, development can take place without damaging important natural features, but this was not the case in this instance.”
The Trump Organisation called the move a “stitch-up” and said they had spent millions on the care, protection and maintenance of the SSSI area....

GM is a career, not just a job.
Mary Barra, the current CEO of GM and first woman CEO of a major auto manufacturer; started her career with GM as a fender inspector (click here) Her eduction is interesting, but, it includes a degree from Kettering (click here) located in Michigan.
The point is GM is a place where careers happen. Even a line worker can make a career of hourly labor and do well all the way to retirement. Flint workers need to consider applying for a job at GM. The jobs are under demand so don't take no for an answer. Continue to be interested and reapply when necessary, usually every six months. I don't know if files are kept past that. In the meantime, finish high school or get a GED and then consider study beyond high school.
Beginning of the Application Process (click here)
Our world-class hourly production and skilled trades employees (click here) are setting a new standard for modern manufacturing in a stimulating, fast-paced environment. They combine commitment and teamwork to consistently deliver more to our customers.

Last month, General Motors pushed out the old and welcomed the new by closing its Davison Road CCA facility and cutting the ribbon on a new ACDelco and GM Genuine Parts processing center in Burton. It shows GM’s commitment to the state it calls home and offers opportunities to area workers.
This latest GM venture in Michigan (click here) is three times the size of the warehouse it replaces, and MLive reports that it will employ more than 800 hourly and salaried members of staff. As of right now, about 700 of the employees came from Davison Road, represented by UAW Local 651, and an additional 150 moved north from a former facility in West Chester, Ohio.
Instead of building new cars or their components, team members here work with parts from subsidiaries and other facilities and then push them out to smaller distribution centers before they arrive at dealership service centers for repair work or modifications. Considering that Flint is the base for the General Motors Customer Care and Aftersales division, it’s an ideal location for a hub of this type. GM was also founded in Flint over 100 years ago and operated here before moving to Detroit.
According to MLive, this $65 million investment is GM’s largest in the United States for more than 40 years. The sprawling warehouse covers 1.1 million square feet, and the automaker estimates that employees will ship out up to 120 million parts a year to the rest of the country.
It’s encouraging to see General Motors invest more money in its American infrastructure. Who knows, the next time your car needs work the replacement parts might come to you via Flint, Michigan.
Flint, Michigan also has an assembly plant.

Flint - General Motors (click here) says it’s bringing 1,000 new jobs to Flint Assembly to help build new heavy-duty pickup trucks.
GM spokeswoman Kathryn Teer confirmed the announcement Tuesday, Feb. 5, in an email to MLive-The Flint Journal.
Reuters reported that the company will give priority in hiring to GM workers who were laid off elsewhere.

It is an icon for North Carolina.
Just by mentioning (click here) Ocracoke Island to coastal Carolinians, the southern section of North Carolina's Cape Hatteras National Seashore, you may get a history lesson of shipwrecks, buccaneer treachery and the Golden Age of Pirates. The tales of Edward Teach would fill a chapter of this coastal island's history book. Teach, the infamous Blackbeard, was feared by all who sailed the seas. Known to be "kin to the devil", Teach spent his final years on Ocracoke Island at what is now known as Teach's Hole.
Ocracoke Inlet was the only deep water entrance to Pamlico Sound and its shifting sands claimed one of its first vessels in 1585. The Diamond Shoals have destroyed so many ships, the area has been named Graveyard of the Atlantic. By the early 1800s, increased maritime traffic begged for a new navigational beacon as the original wooden lighthouse was burnt by a lightning fire.
Today, the Ocracoke Lighthouse, dating back to 1823, is North Carolina's oldest operating lighthouse. It's no wonder that the 75 foot tower is still intact once it's known the foundation base is 12 feet thick. Lighthouse walls are solid brick, measuring five feet thick at the bottom, tapering to two feet at the top. A concerted effort, made up of the National Parks Service, the U.S. Coast Guard and the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office, protects, maintains and preserves this National Historic Landmark.
