President Trumps Discussion: Pulling U.S. Out of NATO



This article is discussing the movement out of the alliance tied with NATO that President Trump is accountable for. He reveals that his arrangement of removing this alliance will cause a disruption in his ties with Mr. Putin and how "he did not see the point of the military alliance, which he presented as a drain on the United States." People are starting to get worried about the removal of this alliance that has been building up for decades as it contributes to less help from other countries if it leaves. This connects to World War II because this event is dealing with the complications between the U.S alliances and our military position among other countries. If we let go of NATO our resources, battle strategies, defense, and power will all decrease if we get attacked from other countries. 

Why do you think President Trump wants to abolish our alliance with NATO?
Do you think this will benefit the U.S.?

    I believe that President Trump wants to abolish the United States' alliance with NATO because I believe it is taking a lot of money and isn't giving the United States any benefits at the moment. Although, I think that Trump is not making the best decision in removing the alliance as the NATO can provide aid to the United States if they were to be at war with another country.

    There will be little to no benefit for the US leaving the NATO. NATO provides an alliance between dozens of countries to protect each other and maintain peace within these countries. If the US were to withdraw from NATO, we would be more susceptible to attacks from countries like North Korea.

URL: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/24/us/civil-servants-government-work.html?action=click&module=Top%20Stories&pgtype=Homepage Summary: The standoff between President Trump and the Senate has pushed the government shutdown to a record high of 32 days (as of January 24th). This government shutdown has lead many NASA employees to miss their second paycheck of 2019. Though NASA is a US federal company, its shutdown affects people all around the world, like Dr. Costa of Brazil. Many newer NASA employees have diverted their efforts to working for other companies, like Lyft, to barely make ends meet. As NASA employee Dr. Kulis says, “We didn’t get Ph.D.s just to sit around”. Some of the smartest and most hardworking people are not being put to work, and this is showing a clear negative impact on national and international research and development...

'Everything is an adventure now': Saudi women celebrate new driving freedoms as ban is lifted https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/saudi-arabia-women-driving-ban-lifts-end-celebrations-licences-riyadh-jeddah-dammam-a8414591.html Summary:   This article talks about how Saudi Arabia abolished its ban on women driving and gives examples of how some women enjoyed their first time as the driver. These women have such little power in their community because it is runned by a whole male system that the pleasure of driving is such a big step into the right direction of better equality. These women have been frustrated because they would always have to rely on either a father or a brother to drive them places, even though they are fully capable of taking themselves. Abolishing this rule gives these women freedom that they haven’t had before and many of them are excited for this new step. Yet, many of them will not be able to drive for a while due to long waits...
