$2 Billion OR MORE in property damage caused by the 2020 BLM riots. According to this article that is more than 22 times the yearly average of destruction during “demonstrations” since 1950!

Direct Quotes:

Some reports have estimated insurance claims for damages related to the 2020 protests totaled about $2 billion. However, the post is wrong to claim protesters saw no consequences

Damages caused by the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests were estimated to cost $2 billion, a number that could "still go higher," according to a February 2021 report published on the World Economic Forum's website.

as the average cost of demonstrations since 1950 has been about $90 million annually.

A June 22, 2020, article from The Washington Post tallied over 14,000 arrests made since May 27. The Hill reported over 17,000 arrests had been made in the first two weeks of protests.

Despite the large number of arrests, The Hill reported most of those protesters were booked not for violent crimes, but for low-level offenses such as violating curfews.

Based on our research, we rate PARTLY FALSE the claim that Black Lives Matter protesters caused $2 billion worth of damage and faced no consequences. It's true that, in 2020, protests over Floyd's death were estimated to have caused about $2 billion in damage.

Democrats stuck their heads in the sand a pretended this didn’t happen, now a full on pardon for Hunter? Maybe some shady stuff did happen overseas that the Biden’s made millions off of. Direct Quotes: Devon Archer told the House Oversight Committee on Monday that his former business partner, Hunter Biden, was selling the “illusion” of access to his father, according to a source familiar with the closed-door interview After the interview concluded, a second source told CNN that Archer did affirm to the committee that Hunter Biden was selling the “illusion” of access to his father, but later clarified that the president’s son was actually selling the illusion of access to Washington, DC, and knowledge of how it worked.

  https://www.newsweek.com/exclusive-putin-treated-cancer-april-us-intelligence-report-says-1710357 This article kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. There are a lot of “seems”, “sensing”, “rumor” and suggesting so it’s tough to put a lot of faith in the idea that Putin is nearing the end of his leadership. The statement quoted in this article by a Ukraine Intelligence official is the most reliable source. Even though this idea is interesting and may bring some comfort to Ukraine. The world and the Biden administration cannot plan on a soon “expiration date” of Putin. We should have learned that lesson already. Also who is to say that the next Russian “President” won’t have similar ambitions?  Compared to the weak, frail and cognitively failing Biden, everything I’ve seen makes Putin look like a rock star. I disagree with the authors about the long tables in Russia. This article states that the long table “became a baseline against which to measure the Russian presi...
