Michael Whatley ran the RNC for Trump. He turned up in three of our four investigations this week and still trails in every September poll we found. Trump's friends can write the checks. They can't make North Carolina like him. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trumps-sen...

A federal judge ruled yesterday that President Trump cannot tear down the Kennedy Center without a 30-day notice. And, recent lawsuits seek to keep armed federal officers away from polling sites.

I, for one, love vaccines. Vaccines are the reason most people don't know what an iron lung is, or what it's like to watch a loved one die of liver failure. Also, it's why we don't have to store dead bodies in freezer trucks every few months when COVID-19 resurges. Vaccines save lives.
