'"The Spirit that made men colored them differently," commenced the subtle Huron. "Some are blacker than the sluggish bear. These He said would be slaves; and He ordered them to work forever, like the beaver. You may hear them groan, when the south wind blows, louder than the lowing buffaloes, along the shores of the great salt lake, where the big canoes come and go with them in droves. Some He made with faces paler than the ermine of the forests: and these He ordered to be traders; dogs to their women, and wolves to their slaves. He gave this people the nature of the pigeon: wings that never tire; young, more plentiful than the leaves on the trees, and appetites to devour the earth. He gave them tongues like the false call of the wild-cat; hearts like rabbits; the cunning of the hog (but none of the fox), and arms longer than the legs of the moose. With his tongue, he stops the ears of the Indians; his heart teaches him to pay warriors to fight his battles; his cunning tells him how to get together the goods of the earth; and his arms inclose the land from the shores of the salt-water to the islands of the great lake. His gluttony makes him sick. God gave him enough, and yet he wants all. Such are the palefaces.' ~ "Last of the Mohicans: A Narrative of 1757" by James Fenimoore Cooper

Friendly reminder that Mike Pompeo and Donald Trump ordered that Marie Yovanovitch, the US ambassador to Ukraine, to be removed because she was undermining their plans to extort Ukraine to help interfere with the election.

Get this! The source of funds for the winning bid in Melania Trump’s first NFT auction apparently came from Melania's own wallet. Blockchain transactions show the cryptocurrency used came from a wallet that belongs to the same entity that originally listed the project for sale.
This process, known as wash trading, allows someone to simultaneously buy and sell the same asset and — in some cases — artificially raise its price. Wash trading is prohibited in conventional securities and futures, but NFTs (like Melania’s) are traded in an unregulated market.
