A Different Perspective: "I Don't See A Fractured America"
#america #society #military #family #interview #photography
On a recent photoshoot I sat down Verily, who grew up in a military family. We were working on a project for her "Golden Year," which she explains. But she also opens up about her view of America and she offers some advice for others and talks about learning to drive in Italy. Most importantly, she talks about her view of being an American.

    You need to add "stupid" to your title. Your wrong about the appeal process. Beyond that Trump is the former president of the United States. What you're missing is how the trial was conducted. No case has been conducted in this manner with all of the ethical violations along with illegal jury instructions. This case was a guilty set up from the beginning. You're missing the whole point of this case

    • @MattPierceBlog
      @MattPierceBlog День тому

      Exactly how am I wrong about the appeals process? Appeals are not a given but more of a luxury item for those who can afford them in 90% of cases in America. I've never known a poor commoner to just get an appeal because he asked for one. Your attorney has to actually file the notice of appeal. Poor people don't generally get an appeal unless it is a capitol case--that my friend is a fact. My point here is that almost every trial that is conducted is a sham and most of Americans never actually get that right because of the plea system. You're right--most cases are not "conducted in this manner" because most cases are never actually heard. Every single one of us are guilty and set-up from the start of the process unless you can afford to fight it. No, I think I get the point pretty clear--justice for one isn't justice for all.

    Hi Matt. I saw you on Tim’s channel. I think that’s fantastic that you’ve gotten some high paying clients! Good for you! I was wondering if you wouldn’t mind sharing with me some ideas about how to get some of those niche clients. :) I am teaching English to some Chinese students that I managed to get from when I taught at DaDaABC but I have a background in banking and the medical industry. I would love to get a good a few high paying clients from these niches possibly. What are your thoughts?

      Hi, Susan! Sounds interesting what you have a background in there. I will say this--NONE of my students are China based. Not one. So, that being said I would certainly look at other markets where incomes are much higher and much more on a level par with your local income needs. Secondly, I really like it is being truly genuine and real with them and making sure that you are utilizing your network effectively. I am always happy to help!
