Clyde Noodlesmith leads us off with some hopeful news giving introduction to Hercule who shares the possibility of a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine which brings with it a possible trade arrangement for the United States to obtain rare Earth minerals from Ukraine.  Beatrice Bottomsides shares with Frank Miller and Donna Scallion the woes of deportees to El Salvador who were legally here as well as the traumatizing raid on a mother with three daughters that ransacked her home, taking with them electronics and all of her money.
