I heard more than usual today, during a break about 5:00-5:30 ET.

So I expect Thursday will be a full 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM, at least

Sarah Huckabee Sanders Scores Major Political Victory On Her Path To Become AR Governor

Ryan Ledendecker

Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the former White House press secretary and daughter of former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, just notched her first major political victory as she seeks to become the Republican gubernatorial nominee for the upcoming election.

According to the Washington Examiner, a number of high-profile Republicans in the state had already launched campaigns or indicated their interest, but that all began to rapidly unwind when Sanders made her announcement last month.

Lt. Gov. Tim Griffin was seen as one of the leading Republican nominees for the gubernatorial run, but on Monday it was reported that he dropped out, presumably realizing that he doesn’t stand a chance against Sanders, given her popularity, experience and family history of running the state.

To show just how intimidating Sanders’ entrance into the race is, Griffin threw in the towel after launching his campaign to run for governor as early as last year. In other words, after planning for nearly a year to make a run for the coveted position, as soon as Sanders jumped in the race, Griffin pivoted and will now chase a different office.

“While I believe Arkansans are ready for my message of bold, conservative leadership, my conversations with friends and supporters have persuaded me that at this time, I can do more for Arkansas in a different capacity,” Griffin said in a statement. “Today, I am announcing my campaign for attorney general of Arkansas.”

While Sanders doesn’t have the state-level political experience that Griffin or other Republican hopefuls in the state have, she has something that’s exponentially more valuable — the endorsement of former President Donald Trump.

Upon leaving her post as White House press secretary, Trump at the time had nothing but high praise for Sanders, even suggesting at the time that she make a future run for office.

Of course, just last month Sanders published a video announcing her gubernatorial run, which also landed a fresh Trump endorsement.

Even more impressive is that Sanders didn’t lean on her father’s popularity when she made the official campaign announcement. She certainly could have and nobody would have thought any different of her, but it just proves that Sanders can stand on her own reputation.

But make no mistake — Arkansas residents not only loved Trump, but they loved former Gov. Mike Huckabee just as much, if not more. If we’re all being completely honest, Sanders is nothing less than a shoo-in for the job and personally, I can’t wait to see her and her family move into the governor’s mansion next year.

Chaos in the Senate

Democrat Impeachment Managers Withdraw Statements Falsely Attributed to Sen. Mike Lee After Schumer Intervention



Lee was clearly of the belief that that characterization of events and of comments–as attributed to him in particular–was inaccurate. As the Senate moved to wrap up business on the impeachment trial for the day, Lee sought to have those Cicilline comments stricken from the record.

California Governor Gavin Newsom’s recall is unavoidable – his poll numbers are tanking amid efforts to oust him from office.

According to two trusted California polls, Newsom’s approval rating has sharply dropped in the last few months.

Only 46% of California voters approve of Newsom’s job performance, down from a 67% approval rating from September.
