A person’s willingness to brawl was a point of pride. Some of the most ardent fighters, many of them felons, became celebrities in their own right, offered speaking slots at rallies, where their V.I.P. status earned them police protection. The Rise Above Movement, led in part by a gang member who had gone to prison for an attack, turned beat-downs into an art form, which they promoted on YouTube, drawing recruits. Nathan Damigo, a former Marine who was incarcerated for five years for armed robbery, used footage of his punching a young woman in the face during a Berkeley protest as a recruiting video for his white-nationalist organization, Identity Evropa. The Proud Boys went as far as to create an entire culture around gang-style rituals, including initiation beatings.

Sharp angular lines, oversized wheels, door handles, grille, and hood give the Dodge Nitro a brawny and muscular appearance. The chiseled look is further enhanced by the masculine selection of colors from the factory including black clearcoat, bright silver metallic clearcoat, and dark slate gray. Dodge offers two V6 engines for the Nitro; the standard 210-hp, 3.7-liter with 235 lb-ft of torque and the optional 260-hp, 4.0-liter producing 265 lb-ft of torque. However, all that muscle and the burley appearance go down the drain with the color of this SUV: Kumquat Orange! Besides attracting the attention of everyone that watches it drive by, the only possible redeeming feature is the ease of finding the vehicle in a large and crowded parking lot.

I have read and watched Ultimate Adventure for years and I finally have a rig I feel is capable of surviving the adventure. I’m at a point in my life I am able to go on a trip of this magnitude. I have recently joined a small group that has reignited my passion for off-road adventure, the group goes on a several days, up to a week, of adventure wheeling. My first trips were in my jeep, but now I have returned to my fullsize roots and decided to build this truck so my wife and son can go on some of my adventures. The truck is a jack of all trades with a simple drive train that’s easy to find parts for. My dad gave me the truck, but it had been sitting for over 9 years in the woods and had a small rodent issue in the cab. I have currently been driving the truck daily just because it’s fun to drive. I have no issues with repairs, and I’ve done all the work on the truck myself, including building the driveshafts. If you would like to see any other pictures of the truck, you can find them on Instagram @rkeller51 . I hope to get a phone call, if not, I’ll try again next year.

After teasing the record on social media, Rich debuted the DJ Mustard-produced track on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 show. The Rich Forever label head also spoke about its connection to his recent digital jabs at Uzi.

On Friday, the SEC announced it had found that Wealthfront made false statements about a tax-loss harvesting strategy it offered to clients, claiming to monitor accounts for transactions that might trigger a wash sale, but failed to do so. It also found that Wealthfront “improperly re-tweeted prohibited client testimonials, paid bloggers for client referrals without the required disclosure and documentation, and failed to maintain a compliance program reasonably designed to prevent violations of the securities laws.” Without admitting or denying the SEC’s findings, the company agreed to pay a $250,000 penalty.

In his discussion of a paper by A.W. Hothersall,43F.N. Speller (Director of Research, National Tube Co., Pittsburgh, Pa.) summarizes the adhesion situation in the following two sentences:

From a law-enforcement perspective, it was chaos. Rarely did a white-supremacist event draw more than 60 people before 2016; 100 was remarkable. But Charlottesville was another galaxy, both in the sheer number of marchers and their diversity. Southers notes, “You had factions of white nationalists, white supremacists, Klan members, neo-Nazis, neo-Confederates — which was like having ISIS, Al Qaeda, Al Shabab and Boko Haram at the same rally. And they were all rallying together, shoulder to shoulder, while the police watched these people go toe to toe sort of like a modern-day ‘Game of Thrones’ battle.”

Last school year was a tremendous time in Vermont for discussing Second Amendment issues. After Parkland, my students were interested in learning more about gun rights and gun-safety regulations, so I invited local state senators from both parties to come speak to my students. They prepared for both visits by doing research so that they could support their own points of view with facts and could question specifics from each senator’s voting record. Then, we went on a field trip to the Edward Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate in Boston, where my students participated in a mock congressional session working on immigration reform. This certainly made the issues on the news much more relevant to them.

The fourth wing of the family is the one Irving was getting to know this week. He took a long flight from the West Coast to the nearest airport in Bismarck, which was 50 miles from the Prairie Knights Casino, a speck of a place on the Plains that’s operated by the Standing Rock Sioux. There he met dozens of family members including his aunt, who’d flown in from Florida to see him.

Getting good at professional wrestling takes talent and a lot of time, as well as someone willing to let you throw them around.

The militant far right was enjoying a renaissance, thanks to the internet. Hundreds of militia recruitment and paramilitary training videos had sprung up on YouTube, along with promotions for weapons training and, to Johnson’s horror, bomb-making manuals. Between October 2007 and March 2008, Johnson and his unit documented the formation of 45 new antigovernment militia groups, which he saw as highly significant given that before fall 2007, these sorts of groups had been on the decline. Some white-supremacist groups, seizing upon the anti-immigration rhetoric that was then fomenting, created violent video games aimed at exploiting public fear of “illegals” streaming over the border.

He said that when Southgate first got the rifles, paperwork had to be completed once or twice a year. As the years have passed, that number has increased.
