days away. candidates are scrambling to make their final pictures to voters. as a country we are confronted with serious issues. including the volatile economy. war in the ukraine, weakening democratic institutions and a spiraling effects of climate change. and yet many republicans have narrow their focus to a few familiar and divisive topics. from sea to shining sea, gop hopefuls are digging into a very old bag of racially tinge tricks. to paint a picture of a country ravaged by out of control criminality. there is little evidence to support these claims and even last to connect the supposed crime waves to democratic candidates. this fall or discontent follows a summer of overreach. many of the same republicans applauded a supreme court ruling. allowing states to outlaw abortion and then doubled down on it. by calling for a national ban. many americans are understandably outraged. to see a right, they cherished for half of a century. and in the blink of an eye and the true p

could alter the investigation s trajectory, and as they re describing more about that, they re digging in and saying we want to protect witnesses. we want to protect grand jury sec secrecy, and they also say the fact that this investigation implicated highly classified materials further underscores the need to protect the integrity of the investigation. that s an acknowledgment by the justice department this investigation implicated highly classified materials. that s their words in the papers. what happens next? that s a great question. so the media, 12 different news outlets including cnn, are trying to get this affidavit made public. but there are lots of calls for transparency right now. it s not just the media that s asking for this. there are some republicans on capitol hill that have wanted more transparency around this investigation. we will see if the court agrees with that. and of course, there is still on the table these requests from both democrats and republi
