Good morning.
Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.
It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Sen. Bill Cassidy - a vaccine advocate and doctor - signaled that he's skeptical of RFK Jr.'s nomination. He also said that his office has received calls in support of RFK Jr.
