George Sorbane Quotes:
1. “So Alex was counting the days until he would step on the holy soil of Boston, ready to breathe the cold Atlantic air and sense the spirits of those remarkable people about whom he had read so much with nearly religious admiration, walk the streets in their footsteps, and pray in the churches where they had found peace and solace in times of fateful junction.”― “The Endless Beginning”

2…………> US On Dangerous Path: President Trump
President Trump’s legal team issued a furious response ahead of opening arguments in his impeachment trial, rejecting of the impeachment charges, and encouraged the Senate to reject “poisonous partisanship”, while House Democrats led by Nancy, “Anyone caught urinating in front of my mansion will be deported to Arizona” Pelosi presented their case in forceful fashion, saying the President betrayed public trust with behavior that was the “worst nightmare” of the founding fathers, and released a document supporting their charges.
“President Donald J. Trump used his official powers to pressure a foreign government to interfere in a United States election for his personal political gain. [He] then attempted to cover up his scheme by obstructing Congress’s investigation into his misconduct,” House impeachment managers wrote.
“The Senate should convict and remove President Trump to avoid serious and long-term damage to our democratic values and the nation’s security,” the document said, for the first time formally calling for the Senate to convict the President and remove him from office.
Mr. Trump’s legal team issued a resounding rejection of the impeachment charges, which were read out in the Senate earlier in the week during formalities setting the stage for the trial.
“President Trump categorically and unequivocally denies each and every allegation in both articles of impeachment,” the Trump lawyers’ document said.
“This is a brazen and unlawful attempt to overturn the results of the 2016 election and interfere with the 2020 election — now just months away,” they argued in a six-page document released on Saturday.
3……………> China’s Forgotten Children: In The Millions
Nearly 7 million children are “left behind” in rural areas while both parents worked in big cities to support the family, with the wealth divide and the strict household registration policy that limits the free migration of the population in China to blame for the social phenomenon.
“We haven’t spoken much for many years. We started to quarrel whenever we tried to talk to each other, so we just gave up on talking if [there was] nothing important,” a forgotten child told abc.net.au reporter.
“I know many people are in a similar position with me, with parents working away and being brought up by grandparents.
“But what I can’t let go of is parents of others at least come back home every Spring Festival. My parents haven’t come back for 10 years. They care too much about money.”
