The Gullah-Geechee have owned land since the 1800s. One terrible law allows their land to be stolen
Several decades ago, my parents took a timeshare tour on Hilton Head Island in South Carolina. The island was in the early stages of being transformed into a resort destination.

Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 20, 2014 With his catastrophic mishandling of the coronavirus, Trump has established himself as the worst president in U.S. history. Far worse is the human carnage….
In his presser, will Trump take credit for Dow's best day since 1933 (of course he will)

But the Aussies are giving us a run for our money. Jeff Goodell, Rolling Stone Magazine….
Rudy was joking (says his lawyer) when he said he had insurance, since his call to Trump was perfect
