On Monday night, 20^th March, at a rally in Louisville, Kentucky, Donald Trump made a speech about implementing his new health care bill which will completely rule out Obamacare.

He seized the moment to make a joke out of former San Francisco 49ers quarterback, Colin Kaepernick.  

Colin Kaepernick has been out of a job since he ended his contract with the 49ers on March 3.

Apparently, Trump is taking credit for his misfortune not to sign with any team since then.

Trump said that he has read in the news that the NFL don’t want to hire Kaepernick because they wouldn’t want to get a bad tweet by Trump.

Colin Kaepernick has been a persona non-grata to football teams since he decided to kneel during the national anthem at NFL games last fall.

Kaepernick did that as a sign of protest against racism, social injustice and police brutality.

Trump has once before told the public that he was completely against what Kaepernick did, saying that was a terrible thing to do.

Trump also openly suggested that if this country doesn’t work for Kaepernick, then he should find another one that will offer him more. But he doubted that would happen.

However, obviously, the comments which Trump made didn’t get to Kaepernick at all and the day after Trumps’ comments, Kaepernick decided to donate $ 50,000 to Meals on Wheels.

Colin hasn’t responded to Trumps’ comments yet, but his generous donation says everything.

Meals on Wheels is an organization which provided food to those who couldn’t afford it or couldn’t prepare it for themselves. Most of the people who were getting the food were older people. If Trumps’ budget program is accepted than this one and several other organization will be in danger.

The president is planning to get rid of the Community Services Block Grant and Community Development Block Grant which are two crucial sources of funding some local Meals on Wheels programs.   

Luckily, Kaepernick’s donation will help them for now.

And that wasn’t all he did.

Kaepernick also donated $ 50,000 to #LoveArmyForSomalia, an online campaign whose aim is to raise $2 million so it can ease the famine which has taken over Somalia.

Thanks to the money that Kaepernick donated, the organization was able to buy an airplane.

Kaepernick is very happy to inform us about the new airplane and he said that they will make sure that each penny goes in the hands of those in need.

They’ve set up a GoFundMe page, so anyone who would like to give a little hope to these people could donate money, food or water.

The GoFundMe will soon reach the amount of $2 million which will be enough to provide 60 tons of food and water and help diminish the historic famine says Ian Rapoport.

Are you the eldest and wisest child in your family? Or perhaps you are the youngest and most rebellious? The birth position among siblings has long fascinated both scientists and the general public.

Many people believe that the position among our siblings comes with specific personality traits, but research has proven that these stereotypes do not always fit in the frame.

In a study done by the University of Leipzig, researchers examined the effects of birth order among 20,000 people from the USA, UK and Germany. They analyzed the participants through empirical tests on intelligence, and they also examined how neurotic, extrovert, conscientious, open, agreeable, and imaginative the participants were.

When they compared the results to their birth position, they concluded that first-born children are indeed more intelligent than the later-born children.

However, the tests failed to prove that birth position had any effects on extroversion, emotional stability, agreeableness, conscientiousness, or imagination.

When it came to the IQ tests, the researchers found that there was a specific pattern that showed an approximate 1.5 IQ points increase in intelligence in birth-order position. In other words, the first-born child would have 1.5 IQ points more than the second-born.

Of course, this was not always the case. The results showed that in a family with two children, the first-born is 60% likely to be more intelligent than the second-born.

Is this IQ difference innate, or developed?

As you may have already heard, most of our intelligence is developed. In fact, only around 40% of our intelligence is genetically conditioned. The rest needs to be built through the environment. The IQ differences between the children comes as a result of environment, not genes.

The first reason first-borns can have a higher IQ may be due to the fact that these children get undivided attention for at least some months or years – something late-borns will have to share from the beginning.

The parents’ expectations from their first child are often higher compared to the other children, and as you know, higher expectations contribute to higher IQ in the long run.

Because of this, first-born children also find themselves often looking after their younger siblings. They are often designated the role of teaching their younger brothers and sisters what has been taught to them.

This responsibility has the greatest effect on the IQ boost first-borns get. Perhaps those 40% who didn’t have a higher IQ in the study were not given such responsibilities by their parents.

Is this the case with you and your siblings?

The world’s oldest billionaire, David Rockefeller, died on March 20, 2017 at the age of 101. Dubbed by many ‘One of the Evilest Men Alive’, Rockefeller was a famous banker and philanthropist who wielded vast influence on the global finance.

A family spokesman, Fraser P. Steitel, confirmed his death and the cause. As Steitel stated, Rockefeller died in the morning due to congestive heart failure.

David Rockefeller, the only surviving grandson of the first billionaire in America (John Davison Rockefeller), had an estimated fortune of $3 billion and his family is famous for their influential banking business.

Such wealth and influence have brought him a lot of fame and infamy at the same time. Rockefeller was known as a philanthropist, who donated an estimated amount of $2 billion dollars to various organizations.

Some of them are the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, which he and his brothers established to promote social change worldwide; The Rockefeller University, formerly known as the Institute for Medical Research; Harvard University; the Museum of Modern Art, NY; and many other important organizations.

Of course, such wealth and influence have brought him a lot of infamy among people, especially conspiracy theorists.

His wealth: Although official records state that his wealth is around $3 billion, many speculate that his actual wealth may even go to numbers over trillions.

Rockefeller and BigPharma: His donations to the Institute of Medical Research, later named The Rockefeller University, have led many to believe that Rockefeller is one of the big fish pulling the strings behind shady pharmaceutical businesses.

The claims go as far as to put Rockefeller behind the Zika virus fabrication and infection of many in the Polynesian region.

Rockefeller and the 9/11 attacks: There have been some associations with Rockefeller and the fall of the 9/11 towers.

World Government: The Rockefeller family have long been associated with the idea of a world government. In 2015, David Rockefeller made a statement which many took as a light-hearted confession to the idea of a world government.

The real question is: Is David Rockefeller going to take the truth behind these claims to his grave, or are the skeletons finally going to crawl out of the closet?

How many of the conspiracies do you think Rockefeller has indeed committed?
