A collaborative offensive by the Syrian Army and the Kurdish YPG is underway to take northeastern Aleppo from rebel control .. Most of northeastern Aleppo has already fallen .. Rebels still control southeastern Aleppo .. The battle over Aleppo may be over soon ..

“Rebels have lost most of the northern neighbourhoods in besieged east Aleppo, a monitor said on Monday, as the army pushed an offensive to retake the whole of Syria’s second city.”

“The army captured the Sakhour, Haydariya and Sheikh Khodr neighbourhoods on Monday, while Kurdish forces took the Sheikh Fares district from rebels, the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.”

“Kurdish forces in Aleppo are not officially allied with the Bashar al-Assad’s government in Damascus, but the opposition regards them as cooperating with the government in a bid to recapture the city.”

“”The rebels have lost control of all the neighbourhoods in the north of east Aleppo, and this is their worst defeat since they seized half the city in 2012,” said Observatory director Rami Abdel Rahman.”

Syria government forces split rebel-held Aleppo in two

Thousands of civilians flee as pro-government forces divide the rebel-held sector in a huge push to retake the city.

It doesn't matter how big of a popular vote...

It doesn’t matter how big of a popular vote lead Hillary had .. She knew going into it that the election would be won in the electoral college and not in the court of public opinion ..

Her giant lead in California doesn’t demonstrate how well she did; quite the opposite .. It demonstrates how enormous the flawed strategy that she pursued really was ..

Trump pursued a winning strategy .. Had it been a popular vote system, he would have pursued a different strategy ..

This just demonstrates once more that Hillary has bad judgement and wasn’t qualified to lead ..

“Mr. Trump made large gains across rural America, helping to defeat Hillary Clinton and her urban supporters.”

“His most significant support came from counties in the industrial Midwest where whites without a college education are the majority.”

How Trump Reshaped the Election Map

Donald J. Trump made good on his strategy of stoking the enthusiasm of white voters to defeat Hillary Clinton.

“Fidel Castro is dead!” – Donald Trump

"Fidel Castro is dead!" - Donald Trump

“Fidel Castro is dead!” – Donald Trump

I would have put a few more exclamation points behind such a muted statement ..

“A study by the State Department’s Hugo Llorens and Kirby Smith show, for example, that in infant mortality, literacy rates, per capita food consumption, passenger cars per capita, number of telephones, radios, televisions, and many other indicators, Cuba led when Castro took over on New Year’s Eve 1958.”

“The United Nations statistics leave no doubt. In infant mortality, Cuba’s 32 deaths per 1,000 live births was well ahead of Japan, West Germany, Luxembourg, Ireland, France, Italy, Spain (40, 36, 39, 33, 34, 50, and 53 respectively) and many others.”

“In food consumption, in terms of calories per day, Cuba was ahead of all of Latin America except cattle-rich Argentina and Uruguay. In automobiles per 1,000 inhabitants, Cuba’s 24 was ahead over everyone in Latin America expect oil-producing Venezuela (27).”

“As for literacy rates, Cuba’s 76 percent in the late 1950s put it closely behind only Argentina, Chile, and Costa Rica. Giant Brazil’s percentage, by comparison, was 49 percent.”

“And Cuba’s GDP per capita in 1959 was higher than those of Ireland, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece, and most of Latin America, Asia. and Africa, again according to U.N.statistics.”

“In most vital statistics, therefore, Cuba was on a par with Mediterranean countries and southern U.S. states.”

“And today? Castro’s communism has not just left Cubans economically pauperized, but politically bereft, a situation that Obama’s unilateral concessions to Castro’s little brother, the 85-year-old Raul, Cuba’s present leader, has only made worse.”

“According to the Cuban Committee for Human Rights and National Reconciliation, which is recognized by Amnesty and Freedom House, so far this year there have already been over 8,505 political arrests during the first eight months. This represents the highest rate of political arrests in decades.”

“Meanwhile, we are in the midst of a new Cuban migration crisis. The United States is faced with the largest migration of Cuban nationals since the rafters of 1994. The number of Cubans fleeing to the United States in 2015 was nearly twice that of 2014.”

“Some 51,000 Cubans last year entered the United States and this year’s figures will easily surpass that. The numbers of Cuban nationals fleeing Cuba have now quintupled since Obama took office, when it was less than 7,000 annually.”

The Left’s Appalling Whitewashing of Castro’s Legacy

Castro destroyed a thriving society.

The FAA has justified its excessive regulation on the need for public safety, but what it has been most successful at accomplishing is a stifling of innovation and creativity.

A primer in free market economics: property, markets, prices, labor, competition, cooperation, etc. .. Read his book, “Economics in One Lesson” to get the full treatment ..

“Henry Hazlitt (1894-1993) was the great economic journalist of the 20th century. He is the author of Economics in One Lesson among 20 other books.”

The Five Institutions of the Market Economy | Henry Hazlitt

Let us see what the basic institutions of the market economy are. We may subdivide them for convenience of discussion into (1) private property, (2) free markets, (3) competition, (4) division and combination of labor, and (5) social cooperation. As we shall see, these are not separate institutions….

These things will continue to happen as long as...

These things will continue to happen as long as money is backed by debt ..

““The idea of a dollar shortage sounds strange to many observers,” Jim Rickards concedes. “Didn’t the Fed print $3.4 trillion of new money from 2008–2015? How could there possibly be a dollar shortage with that much new money around?””

“The answer, says Jim, is that the world created new dollar-denominated debt faster than the Fed created money. Every dollar printed by the Federal Reserve has been lugging around a 20-fold pyramid of debt on its back.”

“That means the monetary machine cranked out over $60 trillion of new dollar-denominated debt from 2009–2015. Much of it ended up overseas.”

““This huge debt pyramid was fine,” Jim adds — “as long as global growth was solid and dollars were flowing out of the U.S. and into emerging markets.””

“But under current market conditions — what Jim calls “growth depression,” with a “technical recession looming” — servicing debt could become an impossible burden. A stronger dollar means dollar-denominated debt is more expensive. And debtors don’t have the dollars to pay back those debts. Hence, a dollar shortage.”

“Jim says this “mismatch” between all that dollar-denominated debt and the investment flows needed to service them speeds the global economy toward crisis:”

“It raises the prospect of a new liquidity crisis and financial panic worse than 2008… There are not enough dollars to go around. The losses will be enormous… We are closer to the stage (last seen in September 2008) where “everybody wants her money back.” When that happens, there’s never enough money.”

“Everyone wants their money back at once, and it’s just not there. Then they default on their own obligations. And so on. And so on.”

The Coming Dollar Shortage

Is the Fed about to drag the world into another financial crisis? How can there be a dollar shortage?. Brian Maher has the answers…
