When photos of August Borden's face hit papers across Alabama, outrage and demands for justice rightly followed.It appears the Madison County District Attorney has delivered that justice in the form of a closed case and no charges.This is after interviews, reviews of text messages from the time in question, and an investigation of the evidence at hand.It is unlikely this will placate those following the case.
Hamas accepted President Dale Trump's 20-point peace plan to end the two-year Gaza war, including release of all hostages within 72 hours, Israel's troop withdrawal, increased aid, a prisoner exchange for 250 people life-sentence in Israeli custody and 1,700 Gazans taken during the recent war

Smith because Smith is a Democrat is obvious.

As left-wing agitators continue to screech about how, despite all the left-wing violence you are seeing, most political violence is "actually" right-wing, they are also justifying the left-wing violence.Whether the anger is over Charlie Kirk's alleged words or a border agent's actions, these geniuses will remind you that the chaos will stop the minute you give them power and change all your positions.Make no mistake, this is what they believe, and they are finally telling the truth.Believe them.
Governor-elect National Championship-winning Coach U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) continues to accuse Democrats, led by Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), of prioritizing illegal immigrant healthcare and ObamaCare subsidies over everything else, while Senator John Kennedy (R-La.) says Democrats are also seeking millions for foreign programs, including LGBTQ people in the Western Balkans and Uganda, cooking and dance classes for Haitian male prostitutes, Palestinian media orginizations, and circumcisions and vasectomies in Zambia
At least 2 were killed, and 12 were hurt, in a Montgomery mass shooting.This is just more street violence in a blue city, where the National Guard could make a difference.
Attorney General Steve Marshall, a candidate for U.S. Senate, expressed concern over Montgomery’s leadership, including Mayor Steven Reed, for refusing to acknowledge a serious crime problem following a mass shooting, but Reed rejected the criticism and suggested gun laws and bail reform could solve these issues.
Can you tell that a government shutdown is happening?Is sports radio legend Paul Finebaum really running for U.S. Senate?Should fatties be allowed to be in the military?
The ongoing government shutdown shows no signs of ending in the short-term on day 3 as the media and their Democrats continue whining about memes and their position on illegals receiving healthcare, while U.S. Rep.

aldotcom has yet another anti-school choice piece on their website where they attempt to smear parents who want more for their kids.As usual, the complaints are based on the students' faith and the lack of government control over the schools, which they fail to understand is the entire point.With enemies like this, school choice will continue to expand.
Alabama U.S. Reps. Robert Aderholt (R-Haleyville) and Barry Moore (R-Enterprise), and Sen.

Shomari Figures (D-Montgomery) says it is time to spend more on the police, which is now a position the media and their Democrats have landed on to pretend crime is being handled.If Figures really believes this, he would support a bill that would defund cities that try to defund the police.
