Oct. 13, 2026 - Brennan Leach (NBC News)  At the 1st stop on the KS GOP bus tour, Roger Marshall got out of a separate car, boarded the bus, then walked off the bus waving to supporters.  After he spoke, an event organizer tells me he left thru the back door of the venue in a separate car again. Marshall called Hamilton “the most radical liberal Democrat to ever make it thru a primary in the state of Kansas.”
