- Ice rinks are the traditional breeding ground for Canada’s sporting heroes, not tennis courts, but times are changing.

That youthful trio, inspired by the feats of trailblazers Milos Raonic and Eugenie Bouchard, are doing their best to knock hockey, almost a religion in Canada, off the back pages. Andreescu, the 18-year-old with Romanian parents, trumped both her compatriots by winning the Indian Wells title as a wildcard, stunning Angelique Kerber in the final.

“She’ll be top 100 before long,” team mate Rebecca Marino, one of the nations earlier tennis pioneers, told Reuters. Tennis Canada invested heavily in facilities, opening a National Centre in Montreal in 2007 and hired renowned coach Louis Borfiga, the man responsible for a production line of French talent including Gael Monfils and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, to oversee its High Performance Program.Then there was the knock-on effect of Montenegro-born Raonic and Bouchard both acting as trailblazers by reaching Wimbledon finals in 2014 and 2016 respectively.

U.S. officials seeking to move migrants away from Texas border for processingBecause an influx of Central American families is overwhelming the nation’s immigration infrastructure, U.S. officials are looking to facilities across the country. In cattle cars? OUT! OUT! OUT!!!! The collapse of Venezuela is going to magnify this problem, perhaps helping the country get back up from the ground would be better than assisting in the destruction.

Abortion opponents see opportunity to overturn Roe v. WadeThe states that have passed or are considering abortion restrictions are increasing in number. Joy Reid and her panel discuss Alabama and Georgia joining the ranks of states with new anti-abortion laws during the age of Donald Trump. Judging by the map it appears there will be a huge migration west! Good.. save the baby humans. The late term abortions laws passed by NY, VA, VT and vote in senate give fuel to anti-abortion activists. Moderate Dems hate late term abortions.

Conservatives use social media to move their agendas much more than liberals doConventional wisdom says it is liberals who use the internet best to enhance activist causes, but that may not really be the case. Yeah...sure.. Yeah, Democrats don't have a social media plan. It's amazing to see that they aren't prepared. If just 5% of the country that doesn't vote would get out and do it every 2 years, none of this would matter anymore. We would be unbeatable.

Key Democrats press Pelosi to move forward with impeachment inquiryThree key members of the House Judiciary Committee argued for launching an inquiry if former White House counsel Don McGahn failed to testify at a planned hearing Tuesday. AIPAC has told Nancy not to impeach and that's why she suddenly dropped impeachment proceedings. You know this already, report on it. Bad idea. House investigates. Trump claims Witch Hunt. Senate does nothing or clears Trump. Trump claims vindication. Trump re-elected. The problem is the SENATE. They decide the punishment. As long as GOP Controlled. Silly, naive people who don't understand Impeachment... Sad. Stop pressing Speaker Pelosi as she is well aware ...instead focus on making changes that will help win more seats & the presidency in 2020... Dodo is gonna impeach himself guaranteed or as they say here in Hawaii guarans ballbarans!
