We Should Fight Global Climate Change

We should fight global climate change because it is destroying the planet. I cannot be any more explicit about it since everyone should be aware about what it is happening. Moreover, the bad things that are happening to this planet are rising sea levels, deforestation, extreme weather events, and disappearance of species. These issues are affecting lives and are endangering any living species which is atrocious.      Now I know making global climate change disappear might just be impossible to do, but it doesn’t mean we can’t try to prevent from making any of the changes worse. Renewable energy instead of using oil, coal, and natural gas can help impact our future.  Nonetheless, if people were to recycle religiously, the planet would not be as bad as it is now.      Those who aren’t aware of the treacherous things that are happening to the world need to know that this is because of the human race itself. It is our fault that we are destroying the ea...

We Should Not Build a Wall Between The United States and Mexico

We should not build a wall between the United States and Mexico because we are separating families from each other and spending billions of dollars on a wall. There are thousands of people affected by this issue and are being punished for trying to be with their family. It is always an awful and heart breaking thing to hear when people get separated from their families and won't get the chance to see them for years.      Building this wall will not only cost people their chances to ever be with their family again but it will cost us billions of dollars to put up the wall. According to Trump, he claims that the wall would cost about $12 billion. Others like the House speaker, and department of homeland security say that the cost of the wall is about $15-25 billion. Therefore, they are still unsure about how much exactly the wall will cost us because of how big and tall they want the wall to be.      Not only will they have to worry about building the wal...

On October 18, 2018 Jennifer Rubin wrote an article called " A Perfect Example of Why Republicans Should Lose ". This article is about Democratic senators sending Trump a letter wanting to know about his company's ties to the Saudis and what exactly he is trying to do with the business he has with the Saudis. This article is mainly written for the non-republican people to start paying attention to the damage the Republicans make while being in control.      The author wants to put out the idea and thought that we the people need to start paying attention to what goes on with the business between Trump along with his fellow Republicans and the Saudis. There are Democratic senators that are even trying to make Trump tell them what is going on by sending him a letter. They just want to make sure that he isn't making any stupid decisions that will endanger the citizens financially and committing any violations.      The letter is what the author uses to mak...

USA TODAY Editorial Board: Vote no on Brett Kavanaugh's Confirmation    On October 5, 2018 the editorial board published USA TODAY Editorial Board: Vote no on Brett  Kavanaugh's confirmation . The author is trying to convince the audience to go against Kavanaugh because of the sexual assault accusations people are making.

The author believes that Kavanaugh's testimony "revealed a lack of candor." and the author included that in his testimony he avoided questions about excessive drinking while he was attending Yale. According to the article, "The issue is not whether Kavanaugh drank too much... more than three decades ago. It is that he misled senators under oath just last week." This shows that the author has proof from previous times from what Kavanaugh said before and what...
