After dedicating 25 years to the mainstream media, I've decided to forge a new path. Every weekday morning at 7 a.m., I'll be sending out this email that shows the untold stories—those that CNN and your nightly news might overlook.

LANSING, Mich - All students in Michigan will be registered by the government if the Michigan superintendent of public instruction, Michael F. Rice, has his way.

NEW YORK, NY — Monday marks a critical deadline in the high-profile Jeffrey Epstein case. The person identified as Jane Doe 107 must prove that if her name is released, it would cause her irrevocable harm.
It’s still not confirmed if Doe 107 is an accuser or an associate.
NEW HAMPSHIRE- All eyes are on Tuesday’s first-in-the-nation New Hampshire primary — but President Biden won’t be on the Granite State’s Democratic ballot, even as he runs for a second term in 2024.

It's part of a $4.4 million settlement, stemming from a lawsuit that was filed against the restaurant chain in October.
So, for all of you thinking Nikki Haley should be the next President, please reconsider. She was my governor for the time I lived in South Carolina. She was not born in the US. Her parents came here legally when she and her sister were very young. Her family is wealthy. She is an elitest. She is a product of private schools. She believes those with money should be the ruling class. Those who are poor in SC are left behind by people like Nikki Haley. She could handle hurricanes from Columbia, SC that never sees the ravages of them. When Hurricane Floyd hit in September of 2015 and dumped 11 billion gallons of water on Charleston County we were not evacuated. Some parts of the county were under water for weeks. Parts of the county were without electricity until water levels went down. My apartment was on a ground floor. They had been built in what was a rice paddy. I thought for a while that I was going to be flooded. The water was less than an inch from my sidewalk. In 2016 during hurricane season I had a house in high ground. Nikki Haley sent buses from every school and city along with the National Guard. I know because she asked that we voluntarily evacuate first. I was heading north to Michigan and watched the busses rolling south along with the National Guard. I was almost to London, Kentucky when she made the announcement at 3pm, that Charleston County be evacuated. Those who chose to stay would not be reached for days if not a week after the storm as she was not risking the lives of first responders until flood waters were down. I have friends who put up their window coverings to prevent breakage and hunkered down. The homeless with their tents were bundled up with their possessions and carried out if the county in busses. She did not come to assess the losses. She had people to do that. I do not see her at the southern border. She would have people to do that. She doesn't get her hands dirty. The homeless did not end up in Columbia, SC. They have their own. They were taken far enough to be out of the storm's path and let off the busses, to be someone else's problem. Most managed to make their way back to Charleston County. Once the all clear was given.
Does Florida not understand that if someone has undergone gender reassignment, there is NO reversing it? It's a one time deal. Since frontal lobes are not fully developed before age 25, no one under 25 should be allowed to have the surgery?
