Elected United States President Donald Trump promised aid to Mexico as the country recovers from a series of earthquakes. This compassionate gesture comes in spite on Enrique Pena Nieto's government in Mexico reneging on a promise to deliver disaster relief aid and assistance to Texas following hurricane related flooding, because the first earthquake following that promise made keeping it inconvenient.

Meanwhile civil disorder in Saint Louis continues as terrorists escalate their attacks on local, predominately minority owned businesses following a former police officer's murder acquittal in the shooting death of a heroin dealer. Aside from the single unsolved casino robbery, the terrorist's assault on the city continues to be split into "peaceful" obstruction of vehicular traffic on major thoroughfares during daylight hours and vandalism of commercial property at night.

One of the many grievances being aired by the terrorists crying injustice is that "No one wants to bring good any jobs to the city."
