Incidentally, I spoke to someone who was at the Omaha rally last night. They said the media's coverage is a gross distortion of what actually took place. Can't say I'm surprised.

Anybody who watched Tucker's interview last night could see that Bobulinski is extremely credible. And he has receipts. This is how Politico is handling the story:
Not completely ignore/dismiss/suppress the story. Because, as I tweeted before, I think we all know the media would be handling this story completely differently if it was Don Jr.'s business partner and laptop. End
The Trump campaign is pushing hard to hold Arizona. It's worth noting, however, that of all the battleground states Trump won in 2016, Arizona is the only state where he underperformed the final polls. He was leading Clinton by 4, won it by 3.5.

I have never seen a presidential candidate go with the "if I answer your question it will make news" excuse. It's truly insulting, and the media is letting him get away with it.
Why don't we just do away with the fiction of a "netural" moderator. Let's have openly partisan moderators, but pair them together on stage. Hannity gets to ask Biden questions, and Maddow can question Trump. Bring the best stuff you got, let's see how they handle it.
Recap: NBC killed story on Harvey Weinstein, saying it didn't meet their editorial standards. ABC spiked story on Jeffrey Epstein, saying same. Both orgs (& rest of media) went wild running uncorroborated stories about Brett Kavanaugh being a gang rapist.
Media bias is not just in the stories that get covered, but the ones that don't. Total blackout on the insanity in Seattle on major news websites: ABC News, NBC News, CBS News.
That's gonna leave a mark. @RichardGrenell takes Senator Warner to the woodshed.
With lightning speed, the Associated Press adopts Democrats' language on SCOTUS: adding members is now "depoliticizing" the court, only "critics" refer to it as "packing."
Rush Limbaugh: "Now we’ve got these Trump-Mueller investigators wiping their cellphones. You try this. You try erasing your cell phone when FBI wants to find out what’s on it. You try and see what happens to you. Stunning."
I've consumed a lot of media over the last 20 years since starting RCP. It's my job. But I have never seen anything as biased and one-sided from a major media outlet as CNN's front page this morning.
Photo of Antifa Karen flipping of black Chicago police officer nicely sums up the current insanity.
