Tulsi Gabbard Endorses Legalizing Drugs
Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) is calling for the U.S. to legalize currently illicit drugs. “If we take that step to legalize and regulate, then we're no longer treating people who are struggling with substance addiction and abuse as criminals and instead getting them the help that they need,” the 2020 presidential candidate said at a campaign stop in Merrimack, New Hampshire on Friday.

The Burn kept on burning until a cold front swept through on Aug. 21, introducing some much -welcome precipitation into the dry region. Eight-seven people — including 78 firefighters would lose their lives in the biggest wildfire in U.S. history.
Idaho miner helps rediscover lawless Bitterroot boomtown seemingly lost to history
High in the Bitterroot Mountains, 100 miles from Spokane and just east of Lookout Pass, a long-forgotten Old West legacy “boot hill” is sparking new interest. The Taft Cemetery – the only remnant of one of the West’s last lawless railroad boomtowns – was rediscovered in recent months, thanks to the keen memory of a retired 78-year-old Idaho miner and modern metal-detecting technology.
