What’s the real scoop on the presidential debate?  By Asa Montreaux So who is going to win the election? There is no definitive answer right this second, but what do you think? Some polls indicated former President Trump is ahead, but who were you routing for? Did that influence who you thought would win? I had watched from the perspective of wanting Biden to win, and I thought that he had. President Trump wants to bring some of the same tired policies, including an immediate import tariff on all foreign goods of ten percent, which would frankly ruin the economy. You might say the rest of Trump’s policies were racist, sexist, and exclusionary. Though it is not easy to say whether this will change somewhat. Trump took very little responsibility for his court cases, but President Biden was swift to point out he has two very prominent trials going on right now. President Biden had to be frank with the former President, that some of his idea were very bad, and he characterized his esti...

Why President Trump Is On The Verge Of Going To Jail By Asa Montreaux A number of months ago, President Trump had been in a federal jail, waiting for a hefty bail to be posted by his lawyers. Flash forward to now, he was found guilty on 34 charges at the end of a lengthy trial, and his sentencing hearing is happening on July 11.  What are the chances of the former President going to jail? A U.S. President has never seen jail time, so from the perspective of status, and reputation, there is significant doubt that Trump will ever go to jail. Though there is no law whatsoever forbidding a former President going to jail, and Mr. Trump has been a target for investigations, with the objective of charging him, since he left office. In fact the Supreme court is ruling later this week on the question can a U.S. president ever go to jail, or do they have an immunity from this. A serving U.S. President is unable to be arrested or charged. Though, they can be removed from office through impeac...

  Why did the Edmonton Oilers fall flat? By: Asa Montreaux The Florida Panthers don't seem on paper to be a better team. Their best players matched up against each other, Connor McDavid has points nearly two full times as high as Aleksander Barkov, across a career of similar length. Star winger Zach Hyman and Leon Draisaitl have had far more successful careers than Florida's first line winger. Although Sam Reinhart had a very successful breakout season, Draisatl has been one of the top three scorers though much of the past four NHL seasons. Is there something wrong within the Oilers group? There is not much speculation that Connor McDavid is injured, but it might be the case. With no goals, and just three assists in the series, he does not seem to performing at his highest level. The Oilers would have needed more from him to have won some of those games.  This is the first appearance in the finals for Connor McDavid, and all the young skaters on the Oilers. It would seem inexp...

The Dead Bod Man By Asa Montreaux One - How many more years before I make a difference in this city. Sometimes I feel there is something terrible, but no one knows. It is not so much a tradeoff, but a fact of reality. In fact, we don’t mention it. Sure, you can read about it in the paper. But you aren’t here… you just don’t experience it. The dirty, disgusting, murders of the city of New York. You don’t need to believe what I am saying, you only need to read about it. And believe me. It won’t be anything you had expected it to be.   Two - We got a call to head out and me and my partner hopped in the car to get to the scene. I am a detective on the NYPD. I’m a lead detective. My name is Bernardo Soulaz. My partner is Edmund Chow, also a detective on the NYPD. You think you’ve seen it all. But this mother fuckin’ night. We saw the worst we had ever seen. At least up to that point.  We had the siren on half the trip. Traffic had blocked up half the avenues, and we had to be...
