Neither the NY Times or the Washington Post reported Trump's statement that he would encourage Russia to attack NATO on the front page.

Both managed to find room for missives on Biden's age & memory.

And they're completely flummoxed as to why journalism is dying...

@philip_cardella True, although Ferraris still stand out for me as do, of course, Porsches.

Gun owners in Maryland would be required to buy at least $300,000 in liability insurance or forfeit their ability to carry a firearm under a new bill.

This is how you do it.

Sorry Laffy, I blocked before I shared the name! Just another gun nut that claimed over and over that a "well regulated militia" means that your guns are in good repair!

Nikki Haley says that America isn't racist.

The below occurred in Conway, South Carolina, Haley's home state, just after Thanksgiving last year and has resulted in demands that a hate-crime law be enacted in the state.

Nowhere else do 55 sheriffs believe that a rapist who has been charged with 91 crimes is fit to be President of the United States...except Florida.

@philip_cardella "Of the 50 U.S. states, 48 have sheriffs." - wiki

They serve different functions, however. Some with very limited jurisdition (like process servers) to those who are similar to Florida's.

When they're elected positions, however, the endorsement of guys like Trump can be the result.

@philip_cardella That's a whole other animal but, yeah, those guys are out there, too.

@philip_cardella There are soooo many possibilities before November, including that one. I'm even thinking we could see a third party candidate emerge so, yeah, nothing is a done deal yet.
