Cargo ship remains stuck in Egypt's Suez
Canal for fifth day after effort to free it failed
Posted By: Imright, 3/28/2021 11:09:48 AM
A giant container ship remained stuck sideways in Egypt's Suez Canal for a fifth day Saturday, as authorities prepared to make new attempts to free the vessel and reopen a crucial east-west waterway for global shipping. The Ever Given's owners say a gust of wind pushed it and its huge cargo of more than 20,000 shipping containers sideways in the canal on Tuesday, wedging it between the canal's sandy banks. The massive vessel got stuck in a single-lane stretch of the canal a few miles from its southern entrance.

It’s time to give the man his fair dues.He’s been working tirelessly for America for 47 years, and so I took the last couple of weeks off from my normal work here at WeLoveTrump to research Joe Biden’s entire political career.It was a lot of work, sifting through

Until very recently, it would have been hard to imagine anything more iconic of American life than Coca Cola and baseball. Today both remind me of Benito Mussolini’s corporatist – aka, fascist -- game of merging of state and corporate power. The CEOs of these operations should hang their heads in shame and fire their public-relations teams.
