Buc-ee’s Takes Logo Battle to Beavercreek

Good morning and thank you for joining me here with another Morning Brief.

I'm Keegan Billings with the Epoch Times, one of America's largest independent newspapers.

Today is Monday, August 17th, and now let's jump into a quick rundown of some of our top stories for today.

The travel center chain Buc-ee's has filed multiple lawsuits to protect its Beaver logo, including its recent action against a mini mart in Beaver Creek.

I'll start with that story.

Next, Democrats can't agree on whether they want to abolish ICE or reform it.

The Democratic National Committee approved resolutions calling for both during its summer meeting in Austin.

In more news, President Trump ordered the Pentagon to scale back joint military exercises with South Korea, suggesting it sent the wrong signal to North Korea.

In more news, Iran announced that it will offer a bounty of $30,000 to any individual who kills or captures a US soldier.

And last, we'll be talking about the health benefits of swimming, for example, how it offers a full body workout.

So stick around for that story in our health section.
