50 Things They Don't Want You to Know
Jerome Hudson - 2019
Many of our most hotly debate topics are shaped by Davos power brokers, woke college professors, TV talking heads, social media activists and feckless Washington swamp monsters who want you to only follow their narrative. Your teachers, your politicians, and your local paper are not likely to ever tell you:
Racial minorities fare far better in the absence of race-based affirmative action policies.
Latinos make up a little more than 50% of the Border Patrol, according to 2016 data.
The U.S. settled more refugees in 2017 than any other nation.
Between 2011 and 2016, the IRS documented 1.3 million identity thefts by Illegal aliens.
Half of federal arrests are immigration-related.
Welfare recipients in 34 states earn more than a person making minimum wage.
Taxpayers doled out $2.6 billion in food stamps to dead people in less than two years.
1,700 private jets flew to Davos to discuss the impact of global warming.
Google could swing an election by secretly adjusting its search algorithm, and we would have no way of knowing.
Once you’re done reading 50 Things They Don’t Want You to Know, you’ll never trust the powers that be to give you the whole truth again.

Never expecting to find someone like him, she is willing to take him anyway she can get him. Too soon and yet not soon enough she’s begging him for what she knows he’s only prepared to offer her. A relationship based only in her bedroom, no promises, no holding hands and she’s sure she can hold out long enough until he figures out he cares about her the way she knows he does. Yet, as the weeks turn into months without the words she needs Carrie isn’t sure she can continue. Far too quickly the question becomes, has she read into his touches and kisses more than there was or does he love her as much as she loves him? If he does love her then why won’t he move them out of the bedroom into the world outside of it and if he doesn’t how long can she continue to simply be Rafael’s Woman? Rafael Castillo wasn’t expecting the tiny woman with the bright blue eyes to turn his world upside down and he doesn’t like it. It doesn’t matter what he wants, family expectations mean a woman like Carrie is off limits. She’ll want and deserve marriage and she isn’t the type of woman he’s expected to marry. Her offer of a sex only relationship is a blessing and curse, he doesn’t care what she says he can see the love in her eyes. Lying to himself he takes what’s offered and plunges deep into something he never thought he’d feel or know again. He’s always disdained the hot-headed Latin stereotype so why the hell does the idea of sharing or seeing Carrie with anyone else but him send his temper soaring?
