SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico - A 6.0-magnitude earthquake and several aftershocks rocked Puerto Rico overnight as Tropical Storm Karen churned toward the island, officials said.
According to the U.S. Geological Survey, the quake, centered about 38 miles north-northwest of San Antonio, Puerto Rico, struck at 11:23 p.m. Monday. Several aftershocks, ranging in magnitude from 2.5 to 5.1, followed, the agency said.
The National Weather Service said the temblor did not pose a tsunami risk to Puerto Rico, a U.S. territory. So far, emergency management officials have not received any reports of injuries or significant damage associated with the earthquake, The Associated Press reported.

Why haven’t we traded that crap hole for Greenland yet?
Want neither. I hear Greenland population would vote democrat.
That’s what they get for allowing fracking.

Man ... they just can’t catch a break.
They tried it last time with PR. Even the Fake News finally had to admit that President Trump authorized an enormous payout. It was promptly stolen by San Juan and federal officials.

Media hoping they can tarnish Trump over this, as they did Bush over Katrina.
The media tried to make Hurricane Maria a couple years ago into Trump’s Katrina, but it didn’t work out.
But they will keep trying. Perhaps this storm combined with an earthquake will be paired up to do that.
And of course, also be used to push global warming.
Surprised the island didn’t tip over.
See this is what happens when Karen isn’t allowed to speak with the manager.
