Topical CBD is a great choice whether you’re dealing with chronic pain or just the aches and stiffness of everyday life.
CBD is an extract made from industrial hemp that can offer relief from pain and inflammation. With few side effects or drawbacks, CBD is seeing tremendous popularity today. While most commonly found in a tincture or capsule, an increasing number of brands offer CBD in a salve or cream designed to be applied directly to the skin.

This is the third and final part of my interview with scott crow.
We discuss what comes after antifa finish driving neo-nazis and white supremacists from our streets. In the second part of my interview, crow commented that the left is great at building “fire brigades” but less effective at building power.

“I think that it starts with asking the question, ‘What does it take to build power?'”

The sold-out event featured a crowd of 6,000 people in attendance over the two days, according to a press release issued by the event organizers.
