Meadows said he agreed with Gowdy that former Trump campaign associate George Papadopoulos was being taped and recorded by FBI informants and that the unreleased transcript was never released to the FISA court, in an appearance on Fox News.

Why Is Fat a Feminist Issue? | News and Politics
"In a speech on the topic of “radical fat liberation” jointly sponsored by the Women and Gender Studies Department and the Center for Equity and Inclusion (what else?) at St. Olaf College in Minnesota, the prodigiously overweight Sonalee Rashatwar, a self-proclaimed Fat Sex Therapist, compared fitness trainers to Nazis, defined child dieting as sexual assault, attributed the Christchurch shooting to ‘thin” white supremacism, and condemned science as “fataphobic” for “promoting the idea that certain bodies are fit, able and desirable.”
She wonders, rhetorically, “is it my fatness that causes my high blood pressure, or is it my experience of weight stigma?”
She goes on to blame the Reagan administration for having refused to provide “social supports that also help me to subsidize my food costs.” 
...Rashatwar, of course, is not alone in pursuing her redemptive mission.
Fat is big in the feminist Weltanschauung..."

When you take that figure and divide it by 365, you arrive at the figure of $276 million."
"Is one day's worth of gross receipts by Boeing severe enough to deter future behavior?
Or is it one week's worth of wages, or one month, or one year?

Hezbollah Is Feeling The Squeeze Of Trump’s Sanctions | The Daily Caller:

Hezbollah has been forced to make “draconian cuts” to its expenditures as a direct result of President Donald Trump’s 2018 sanctions on Iran, according to The Washington Post.

Border Patrol Official: Migrants Won't Be Sent to Florida at this Time

Border Patrol Official: Migrants Won't Be Sent to Florida at this Time:

A U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) official said late Friday that plans to send migrant families to South Florida have been put on hold temporarily following a backlash from state lawmakers.
The development came after Broward and Palm Beach county officials said they were notified by U.S. Border Patrol that more than a 100 immigrants would be sent weekly to each of the counties starting in the next two weeks. According to NPR, the official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said the agency will not be “transporting any family units to Florida at this time,” but left the door open to “possibly housing and processing migrants at other U.S. Border Patrol sectors across the nation.”
