Pack 325 Founding Year Fundraiser
At Cub Scout Pack 325, we nurture young Scouts into responsible citizens. We equip them with essential life skills by engaging in hands-on activities rooted in teamwork, respect, and community service...

We're officially rolling!! Sharing as Scout Packs are wholly self-supporting, & being new we have a lot of needs. We are fundraising locally, though also opening up to friends here who may want to support. We appreciate anything y'all can give & 100% of donations go directly to supporting our Scouts

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design.

Recent polling shows Aftyn within single digits of Van Epps, tied among motivated voters.

The Tennessee Attorney General appears to have improperly withdrawn and surreptitiously revised two recent formal opinions about constitutional limits on Tennessee National Guard deployments.
The AG now takes no position on whether the Guard is even subject to TN constitution.
