My grandparents survived the terrible abuse of the Federal Indian Boarding School Era. That trauma wasn't isolated to the past—it was carried down through my family all the way to me. And there are so many families like my own across Indian Country.

It's great to see tailoring accommodate such extreme movement today. This level of tailoring was a bit more common in the past, as you can see in old films featuring Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly, but many modern suits will lift off the wearer's neck even when they're just walking.

I’ve covered Trump’s arch for nearly a year. I’ve watched officials reveal their plans to federal commissions and tracked them in court. Nobody, until today, made any suggestion it would be a “military complex.” But Trump has used a similar strategy to defend his ballroom.

Trump says planned 250-foot arch will be ‘military complex’ for drones, snipers
The president’s post about the 250-foot arch planned near Arlington National Cemetery comes as veterans groups, historic preservationists and others attempt to stop the project.
