Mike Collins has brought dishonor to our state through his personal bigotry and his widely documented ties to white nationalists. And he's sold out Georgia in his pathetic, childlike devotion to Donald Trump.

Airports in Moscow have been closing/reopening most of the day

For the last 2 hours all four were forced to shut, though Sheremetevo has now been given the green light to resume departures and arrivals

But not only drones are causing problems, Ukraine deployed balloons too

You should never have to wonder whether troops are watching you vote. Commanders owe voters answers. Put the orders on the record.

Trump admin has reversed years of diplomatic isolation by initiating direct talks with Myanmar's military junta. The high-level outreach, led by Assistant Sec of State Vance, aims to secure release of a detained American, combat cyber-scam networks, and explore access to rare-earth mineral deposits.

Today is the anniversary of the infamous 1871 Chicago fire, as many as 300 dead. But it’s also the anniversary of the less famous Peshtigo, Wisc., fire, also in 1871, with as many as 2,500 dead.

People jumped into the Peshtigo River to try to survive the 3-day fire that covered 1,875 square miles.
Still the deadliest wildfire in U.S. history: the Oct 8, 1871, Peshtigo, Wisc., fire killed as many as 2,500. Same day as Chicago fire, but with many more deaths and no cow to blame. Slash-and-burn land management resulted in too much burn. A museum and graveyard for the victims stands in town.

Bedrooms. Marble showers. A bar.

DHS spent hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars on planes under Kristi Noem, bypassing competition because the need was supposedly “urgent.”

Most of the planes then largely sat idle.

What happened to rooting out waste and fraud?
