Never Forget

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

It's Friday, September 11th, and I'm Keegan Billings with The Epoch Times, one of America's largest independent newspapers.

Now, we'll be starting off a little different today.

I'll be sharing our national editor, Ivan Penchikov's memories from 9-11-2001, after 25 years.

He was in high school at the time, and it was across the street from the Twin Towers.

Next, I'll get into President Trump's closing night speech at the two-day midterm RNC convention, where he laid out a flurry of proposals that he said Republicans would pursue in the coming two years.

In more news, a federal appeals court said they won't allow the Trump administration to implement its new rules for mail-in voting.

Meanwhile, Secretary of State and National Security Advisor Marco Rubio said he has no plans to run for president.

Moving on to world news, three people in Taiwan narrowly avoided being trafficked to China, where they allegedly would have had their organs forcibly removed.

And last for our health section, we'll get into how much protein per day your body might need, depending on your age and how active you are.
