#OTD in 1862, #Confederate soldiers repulsed a massive #Union assault on the second day of the #Battle of #Fredericksburg. Wave after wave of Union soldiers were mowed down during a full frontal assault against Confederate troops positioned at Marye’s Heights. 
After the Battle of #Antietam a few months earlier, General #McClellan allowed Lee's Army to retreat back to #Virginia to fight another day. #President #Lincoln then relieved McClellan of command and replace him with General Ambrose #Burnside.
Burnside quickly planned a fall offensive to move on #Richmond. However, the Union Army's operation faced logistical setbacks, allowing Lee to settle in at Fredericksburg. Burnside chose to attack Lee head on, a decision that proved disastrous.
@JimVibert had basic facts wrong in his recent column about #gold #mining.
He said the Touquoy mine is 1,760 hectares and it's bigger than most #NS towns. In fact, it's 249 hectares - less than 1/5 the size of #Burnside ind park.

@JimVibert @chronicleherald Of the mine’s 249 hectares, the pit – where actual mining takes place – is only 37 hectares.
The #NS #mining industry's footprint is only 0.1% of #NovaScotia's landmass. We create 5500 jobs for #NovaScotians using very little land.

He said @AtlanticGoldCo paid only $270,000 in royalties last year. In fact, the company paid $1.4 million in royalties. This info is publicly-available in their annual report.

Cambridge Analytica’s exploitation of private data from 87 million Facebook users is a significant piece of the conspiracy to defraud the US, UK French (?) electorates.
I haven’t seen any definitive reporting linking Brannon’s Far R The Movement & the use of CA, to help elect Le Pen, but it isn’t a stretch to imagine it was likely used to assist the right-wing effort to disaggregate the EU.
