2022 polling favors GOP
Rick Moran: The CBS Battleground Poll shows that Republicans have stopped a two-month slide and have stabilized their position while the Democrats have stalled out. The CBS poll translates numbers into Congressional seats, and today’s numbers three weeks out from Election Day show 224 seats for the Republicans and 211 for the Democrats. But individual races are beginning to swing toward the GOP, so we can expect that number of seats to climb substantially. The Republicans are on the cusp of a wave election if they can win an additional 7-10 races. What’s now driving the elector... read more

Trainees kill 11 wound others in Russia
PJ Media: Two draftees opened fire at a Russian military training ground near the Ukraine border, killing 11 and wounding 15. The shootings happened during a live-fire training exercise.

No motive for the attack was immediately given, although some ethnic minorities have become extremely resentful ... read more

Chet Raymo, “Why Cranes Fly”
