The month before election day, the states could not be higher. Republican plans from project 2045 and agenda 47 to drasti
Vladimir putin wants donald trump to win. Benjamin netanyahu wants donald trump to win, but the difference is the biden administration is in many ways helping benjamin netanyahu, providing him the impunity to do the very things that not only end up killing palestinians and lebanese and endangering israelis, but also increase the possibility of donald trump being president. How does that make any sense as policy from a democratic administration? and then there is the human toll. The expectation that there will be retaliation on the part of hezbollah and i wonder how you are guarding yourself as we are in this strange period. I guess there could be more explosions tomorrow, but as we sit and wait for retaliation from hezbollah for attacks that israel began the day before yesterday. The biden administration has to use american leverage these iv israel to get israel to recognize that it s problem with hezbollah and with gaza is a diplomatic problem and the way to get an end to the rocket f
Allow a citizen initiated constitutional amendment. The political rhetoric from the no side is going to be what it is going to be. This is a common sense thing for ohioans to say we own our constitution and it shouldnt be for sale to out of state special interests. So jake, this is also about more than Abortion Rights. Its also about minimum wage. There is a proposed constitutional amendment next year that could have ohio Voters Decide minimum wage. So the proponents of this are trying to change the rules if you will to make it harder to amend the states constitution. Jeff, how much money has been spent in this special election . Outside money, jake, has been flooding in this summer. This has been a pretty short campaign. And more than 26 million has been coming in. Again, this is crossing more than just normal party lines. But democrats, if you look at it that way, are spending more on Television Ads than republican aligned groups. There has been an ad war in Television Campaigns as w

with republicans like hannity finally realizing that the party s toxic, regressive, authoritarian policies have sparked a voter backlash. also tonight, new reporting that donald trump almost certainly knew that a president cannot declassify documents just by stuffing them in a box and hauling them to the old golf resort, as repeatedly has claimed. plus, elon musk s off the rails interview. the man who runs one of the biggest social media sites raises alarms with toxic comments about george sorros and the texas mall shooter among other things. but we begin tonight with the republican s toxic brand. remember the 2022 midterms the red wave felt more like an orange trickle? that keeps happening. last night was another really bad night for the republican party, several key races in florida, colorado underscoring how the right wing grip on our politics is slipping. in florida, democrat donna deegan won the mayor s race in jacksonville. which had been the largest city in the u
