Good morning. It’s September 11. We will never forget. 

 

My high school was across the street from the Twin Towers. After 25 years, I’m sharing my memories from that day. 

 

Before that, here are today’s top stories:

  • President Donald Trump on Thursday evening addressed a crowd in Dallas, touting his administration’s achievements on the closing night of the two-day midterm convention, laying out a flurry of proposals that he said Republicans would pursue in the coming two years.
  • President Donald Trump said he is providing $500 rebate checks to nearly 1 million people who he said were “wrongly overcharged” through the Affordable Care Act—President Barack Obama’s healthcare law, known as Obamacare. The night before, Trump promised a $5,000 dividend check to every adult in the U.S. if Republicans win the midterm election in November.
  • Supporters at the first Republican midterm convention told The Epoch Times that to triumph in November, the party should emphasize its economic wins while challenging what they called the democratic socialist pitch of “free things.”
  • Three people narrowly avoided being trafficked to China, where they allegedly would have had their organs forcibly removed, after being lured by fake online postings offering illegal work, according to prosecutors in the northern Taiwan city of Taoyuan.
