Today, Trump has re-filed his $10B libel suit against the Wall Street Journal for publishing his birthday book drawing; a company tied to Don Jr. gets a $620M contract after the White House intervened; Trump visited soldiers at Walter Reed but not the 14 wounded in his war; a federal judge denies an attempt to stop Trump’s mail-in voting and citizenship order; Governors Newsom and Hochul vow to tax slush fund recipients at 100%; a student journalist blasts CBS News as a ‘stain’ on Mike Wallace’s legacy; and Allison delivers your Good News.
