 "Friendship across political lines" is blog discussing whether it is okay to be friends with people who have different political points of view and if it is seen as a betrayal. The intended audience is everyone who has basic political knowledge since this blog talks about that. I do agree with the author, he states that the two characters he is talking about are a good example for us to keep doors open for people who think differently, like conservatives and liberals, democrats and republicans. A great way to support his point was contrasting and comparing  them both with things they said about LGBTQ rights and restrictions, it shows that even when they know the other person is not like-minded they do not mind being respectful and even friends. Another way he provides credibility are the mentions of the pictures and the specific place the two characters were seen at. 
     The blog was very well done, I agreed with lots of statements the author made. I believe many people also do because we won’t really know other people’s political preferences unless we ask for them, it is our decision to maintain our friendships or just stay away. However everyone should have a voice and do what they think is right instead of be  influenced for other people’s beliefs.

An article posted this Wednesday on the New York Times called  " DealBook: Will It Be Billionaire vs. Billionaire in the 2020 Election?"   The elections of 2020 are being described as "billionaire vs billionaire." This article talks about Mr Bloomerg, a 77 year old billionaire who is running for presidency. According to this news, Mr. Bloomerg has many obstacles to win the elections, since he has been talking in inappropriate ways about woman, has history of political baggage and a record of championing law enforcement policies that disproportionately targeted black and Latino men. However I believe that U.S. elections should not be based or titled in those terms. (Billionaire vs billionaire) because the country.s elections are in matter of which one of the many candidates knows more about U.S. economy, politics, and its population, not about how much money each candidate has or how may votes they can buy.

The national biggest physician's groups are concerned about the use of e-cigarettes, for underage vaping and several types of consumers, like adolescents. They are trying to regulate the sales of electronic cigarettes, principally to prevent younger generations to get addicted to flavored nicotine and eventually to begin smoking more and more. The vape industry is already regulated by the FDA, however each year more underage teenagers are getting into this "epidemic" and many of them declare that they like vaping because it has different fruity flavors, such as:grape, mint, strawberry, etc. for this specific reason, the Government wants to ban flavored nicotine so that teenagers do not feel attracted to vaping by the flavor inside the chemical. A lot of people have a huge lack of knowledge about vaping products that is many people might feel like flavored nicotine is less harmful than actual cigarettes and other vaping products.

The article read was about if DACA should be terminated or not. According to the examples presented by the author, I believe that Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals should not be terminated as it was for a short period of time in 2017. The author states that Kids who have been getting Daca are actually helping the country's economy and doing something good for the entire population. Even when Daca does not guide them to citizenship or residency, it protects them from deportation, and gives them the opportunity to work legally here in the United States, however, as said in the article, Trump's administration did not want to accept anymore applications, and this instead of being helpful is just hurting not only the new children coming and making a living here but also the country in General I also completely agree in the fact that everyone who has Daca is actually being a contributor to the country because they do have to be checked before getting the permission, those childr
