This is an interesting quote from Forrest about why he fought, one that many southerners of the time would probably have agreed with: the problem was not the government built by such great Virginians as Washington and Madison, but the attempts of base men to pervert it

And so they fought, rolling the dice on preserving their way of life and understanding of good government, failing to do so in the face of insurmountable odds

Forrest, during the war, was one of the great commanders. While Stuart, Wade Hampton, Mosby, and Fitzhugh Lee tend to garner most of the attention and post-war memory of southern cavalry, Forrest was one of the greatest cavalry commanders in American military history despite having no formal training. It turns out, elan and getting there "the firstest with the mostest" tends to do the trick, and terrify the enemy

Trump Federal Housing Director Bill Pulte says the administration is seriously considering major reforms targeting Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, accusing the three credit bureaus of overcharging and operating in a “cartel-like” manner that hurts American homeowners. Pulte says bi-merge and other “SAFER and SOUNDER” solutions are under serious consideration, warning: “We will not allow companies to take advantage of American consumers. No more.”
