It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Hurricane MELISSA's winds were the fiercest I've witnessed. & this is one of the highest gusts I filmed before 100% whiteout. The palm is bending so far, the crown is below the railing. This megagust happens at 43:26 in my video. Soon after, you can't see anything—just a screaming wall of whiteness.

Now we know the identities of 22 of the 23 men in the truck, one of whom is Pohlhaus. All but one of them are from out of state.
Here are the names of the neo-Nazis who rallied at a Little Rock civil rights site on Saturday - Arkansas Times
LRPD initially said that none of the men were from Arkansas, but Helton corrected that Tuesday and said that one of the men in the truck moved to Arkansas late last month from Colorado.

This country is allowed to have tariffs. You just have to convince Congress that they're a good idea.
The President can hold tariff powers instead of Congress, if you can convince voters to amend the Constitution.
If you can't convince anyone of anything, rethink your ideas.

Trump: "If this country is not allowed to have tariffs, if this country is not allowed to have the president negotiate on behalf of it w/tariffs, we are put in a position where we're gonna be a 3rd world country. We can't let that happen. I think it's the most important case that we are gonna have"
