Price of Bitcoin Today February 2018





An announcement from Arun Jaitley, the Finance Minister of India, has sent shockwaves throughout the global cryptocurrency market. “The government does not consider cryptocurrencies as legal tender or coin and (will) take all measures to eliminate the use of crypto assets" declared Jaitley today.

Ripple, cardano, bitcoin cash and many other virtual currencies were also hit hard, losing over 10%. Ethereum was seemingly weathering the storm however, recording a gain of 1%.

Turkey Attacks Afrin in Syria : January 2018


S




Turkey is continuing its assault on the Kurdish city of Afrin, an operation President Erdogan claims to be aimed at routing out the YPG group from the Turkish border.

Ankara claims that this group is allied with the PKK Kurdistan Worker`s Party, a listed terrorist organization in Turkey.

"We are determined, Afrin will be sorted out," declared Erdogan triumphantly as he addressed the nation on Monday. "We will take no step back," he continued, "We spoke about this with our Russian friends; we have an agreement."

Russia occupies a vital place in the Syrian civil war since their intervention at the behest of Syrian President Bashaar al Assad, if, as Ergodan affirms, there is indeed an agreement between the two nations then that would entail the removal of a possible stumbling block in the action.

Government Shutdown January 19 2018





This Friday a government shutdown is looming in the United States at midnight. It would be the first such occurrence in 4 years.

A government shutdown happens when the President and Congress do not pass appropriations legislation which would allow for the funding of different agencies and government functions.

Democrats are demanding concessions from the President in order to raise the debt ceiling and thus prevent a shutdown of the government, which occurred twice under President Obama (in 2011 and 2013).

The main points of contention are the Children`s Health Insurance Program and the non deportation of so-called dreamers, both of these issues are of vital importance to the democratic minority.

Fake News Awards 2018 Winners





Donald Trump gleefully took to his favorite medium of communication on Wednesday evening, announcing the winners of his "Fake News Awards".

The New York Times and CNN were the media outlets most frequently named by Trump, who has rallied against "Fake News" since the beginning of his campaign in 2015.

Despite some setbacks in his agenda, the President has managed to maintain the loyalty of his base, the majority of whom do not trust the mainstream media and accuse them of political bias.

John Mccain, Republican Senator from Arizona and previous presidential candidate John Mccain, who is a longtime foe of the President, immediately distanced himself from Trump´s actions. "The phrase "fake news" granted legitimacy by an American president is being used by autocrats to silence reporters, undermine political opponents, stave off media scrutiny and mislead citizens" he wrote.
