All the news you may have missed....

See you in Houston (10/14), Austin (10/15) or D.C. (11/1)?

I don't have a fear of public speaking. I enjoy speaking in front of a crowd (and camera and microphone), even though I'm actually a fairly introverted person. I do fear showing up to speak and not having a crowd.

First Ukraine Whistleblower falling apart, so media inventing a Second Whistleblower

Posted by William A. Jacobson on October 04, 2019 76 Comments

The New York Times is continuing the tradition of the Russia collusion media frenzy, where every few days a new media "bombshell" was launched, only to be revealed as a dud.

Elizabeth Warren raised $24.6 million in 3Q – not the blow out predicted

Posted by William A. Jacobson on October 04, 2019 12 Comments

Considering Bernie's campaign is stuck in neutral, or even reverse, Warren's number are disappointing regardless of her campaign's spin.
