Investigators says Ukraine may be behind the attack
THE US Democratic Party’s progressives rallied against President Donald Trump’s denunciation of socialism in his rambling state of the union speech last night.
The president began his tirade against socialism by blaming Venezuela’s economic hardships on left-wing politics.
“We condemn the brutality of their regime whose socialist policies have turned that nation from being the wealthiest in South America into a state of abject poverty and despair,” he said, failing to mention the impact of US economic sanctions.

Trump’s cruel Bill will deprive millions of essential medical support while escalating deportations and rewarding the super-rich, writes LINDA PENTZ GUNTER
