    Months of planning have gone into the handful of minutes it will take for the moon to pass in front of the sun on Monday. Dozens of towns and cities in the solar eclipse’s path of totality have arranged packed schedules of celebratory events and viewing sites, preparing to welcome legions of enthusiastic visitors like Michael Howard.

  • How Trump’s latest abortion position can hurt him in the suburbs

    Donald Trump revealed exactly how terrified his campaign is of the Republican effort to end abortion nationwide when he supposedly backed the right of states to regulate abortion early Monday morning. “The states will determine by vote or legislation or perhaps both," Trump said in a rambling nearly 5-minute video, "whatever they decide must be the law of the land—in this case, the law of the state.” President Joe Biden immediately took the opportunity to slam Trump, saying he "just endorsed...
