To call the situation in Hong Kong tense is akin to calling the Democratic Party's internal politics chaotic. Pro-democracy demonstrations are now in their fifth month and show no sign of letting up.
Demonstrators shut down the city's international airport (one of the busiest in the world) two days in a row last week. Beijing is furious over the inability of its puppet regime to restore order by traditional methods.
U.S. Border Patrol agents found 146 grams of methamphetamine, about 90 grams of an unidentified white powder, and $29,000 in cash in a Ford Mustang abandoned by the side of the highway near an immigration checkpoint in Sherman, Maine, the Border Patrol said.
The Border Patrol seized the drugs, cash, and vehicle on Monday, August 12, according to The County, which covers Aroostook County in northern Maine.
