Running mate. Ill ask him this morning. Plus challenging biden, the new Special Counsel appointment fuels more criticism from republicans. If he were a republican he would have been in jail a long time ago. Biden is also facing critics from within his own party on his capacity to serve. Ill talk to democratic congressman dean philips of minnesota who is actively calling for more primary challenger to biden. And red alert. That vote in ohio is pretty sobering. Ohioet voers deliver a victory to supporters of Abortion Rights and offer another warning sign for republicans. If republicans are just focused on one issue theyll have a bit of a challenge.
