Due to their strategic importance to the TBR family, we have chosen to add the states of Kentucky and Tennessee. Our focus begins here; however, as news and events warrant, we will include all states and regions.

Lee's Note: It's very encouraging to see anyone helping those in need. I can't help but wonder why the news isn't saturated with these stories from Churches. Benevolence doesn't seem to be thought of very highly like it once was. We all should positions ourselves to be able to provide charity as the Lord brings those in need across our paths.

Rand comes through again, blocks drone power grab: https://www.wtvq.com/senator-rand-paul-blocks-drone-bill/
Lee's Takeaway: The Dirty Dem's already trying use the drone saga in order to expand "local" officials ability to go after drones. Interesting how that works isn't it. Create the problem after you have the solution to it then offer the solution as a fix. Nah, they would never do such a thing...right?!
