It's amazing to me that only twenty two years ago the company Google was discovered. The company was founded on September 4th, 1998 by Larry Page and Sergey Brin and has now become one of the most popular search browsers in history. As of this year google has over 1.5 billion active Gmail accounts across the world. Sundar Pichai is the current CEO of Google inc and has been since October 2nd, 2015. He became active CEO when Larry and Sergey announced the creation of Alphabet Inc, one of Google's subsidiary companies.

In another scene the small boy was in a subway car and there was a larger man messing with a girl

Throughout Trump's presidency he has used different media techniques to communicate to the public more so than any other president in recent history. For example, he tweets out messages almost daily.  In this article he now uses a new technique of using memes to depict his dislike of media and people that don't support him. In in the article there is a meme in the form of a video that he played in one of his recent pro -Trump group conference at his Miami resort last week. The article shows a  video  from a scene in the 2014 movie The Kingsman, the movie clip is of Harry Hart who is one of the Kingsman agents as he goes into a church and is inflicted with rage by the villain in the movie Valentine, and kills everyone in the church. In this depiction for the meme's purpose, Agent Galahad (Harry Hart) has President Trump's head pasted on him and the people Galahad kills by shooting, assaulting, and stabbing the faces and logos pasted on them of people and corporations
