Adam Schiff's sudden shift on political prosecutions, and a mysterious phenomenon in the New Jersey sky.They kick off with an AP poll revealing just 22% of Americans support a Hunter Biden pardon. Opposition is strong across party lines, with independents and even many Democrats hesitant to back the move.Next, they call out new California Sen. Adam Schiff, a former House Intelligence Committee chairman, for decrying presidential prosecutions in a democracy, despite his past vocal support for pursuing Trump over alleged Russia collusion. Jim also says Schiff has yet to pay any significant price for grossly misleading the American people during the Russia probe.Finally, they delve into the strange sightings in the New Jersey sky. With drones or drone-like objects puzzling locals, the FBI and military both say they don't know what's happening. As a New Jersey native, Jim offers both serious and lighthearted theories on the mystery.Please visit our great sponsors:Lumenhttps://lumen.me/3MLVisit Lumen.me/3ML for 15% off your purchase.  Moink Boxhttps://moinkbox.com/martiniJoin the Moink Moovement at MoinkBox.com/MARTINI for free wings for life!NetSuitehttps://NetSuite.com/MARTINIDownload your FREE CFO's Guide to AI and Machine Learning at NetSuite.com/MARTINI

California Sen. Alex Padilla sits down with Margaret Hoover to discuss Vice President Kamala Harris, his longtime friend and colleague.  The son of Mexican immigrants, Padilla was appointed to Harris' seat after she won the vice presidency in 2020. An MIT graduate, he initially hoped to become an aerospace engineer. But he was instead drawn to politics when, in 1994, California voters passed a proposition banning undocumented immigrants from public services, including education and non-emergency health care.  Padilla quickly rose through the Democratic ranks in the state, forging close relationships with figures like Harris and Gov. Gavin Newsom. After Newsom picked him to serve out the remainder of Harris' term, he easily won the seat outright in 2022.  In Washington, Padilla is known as a fierce advocate for immigrants and their families. He discusses his opposition to President Biden's border crackdown this year, and his hope that Harris handles immigration issues differently. He also defends Harris' economic agenda, and lays out an argument for why all Americans — in particular Latino voters — should support the Democratic ticket in November.  Support for “Firing Line for Margaret Hoover” is provided by Robert Granieri, Henry & Vanessa Cornell, The Fairweather Foundation, and Al & Kathy Hubbard.

President Joe Biden signed an executive order that will severely limit the number of migrants who can claim asylum at the border. Flanked by high-profile Democrats at a press conference Tuesday, Biden said he was forced to act to address “a worldwide migrant crisis” amid Republican stonewalling on a bipartisan border bill. “Doing nothing is not an option. We have to act,” Biden said. But the president also came under significant criticism from others in the party, including California Sen. Alex Padilla. He explains why he thinks limiting asylum won't work.And in headlines: The New York Times reports that Ukrainian forces struck a Russian military facility using American-made military weapons, three Trump associates have been charged with forgery in Wisconsin for their connection in trying to overturn the 2020 election, and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi won a third term in the country's elections.Show Notes:What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Newly appointed California Sen. Laphonza Butler, a labor leader and activist who has never run for political office, announced that she would not compete for a full Senate term in 2024, The Los Angeles Times reports. Her announcement ends weeks of speculation about whether she would join a crowded candidate field that includes prominent fellow Democrats.  Butler said in a statement, according to The Times, “Knowing you can win a campaign doesn't always mean you should run a campaign. I know this will be a surprise to many because traditionally we don't see those who have power let it go. It may not be the decision people expected but it's the right one for me."  Laphonza Butler is only the third Black woman to be a U.S. Senator. Learn more about your ad choices.

Tom joins Ray to discuss the horrific attack on Israel. Former baseball MVP Steve Garvey joined the race Tuesday to succeed the late California Sen. Dianne Feinstein, giving Republicans a splash of star quality on the ballot in a heavily Democratic state where the GOP hasn't won a Senate race in 35 years. The IDF said it was responding to shells fired from Syria into Israel on Tuesday night. Israel's act of self defense in laying siege to Hamas terrorists and their supporters in the Gaza Strip was declared a “prohibited” act Tuesday by the U.N. human rights chief.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On the version of Hot off the Wire posted Oct. 11 at 6:45 a.m. CT: Residents in Gaza are facing an imminent loss of electricity as fuel supplies run dangerously low in the sealed-off territory. Israeli airstrikes left entire neighborhoods demolished Wednesday, and hospitals in the Gaza Strip are struggling to treat the injured with dwindling medical supplies. The war has claimed more than 2,200 lives on both sides and is expected to escalate. The weekend attack that Hamas said was retribution for worsening conditions for Palestinians under Israeli occupation has inflamed Israel's determination to crush the group's hold in Gaza. Foreign governments are tallying their dead and missing as the latest Israel-Palestinian war stretches into its fifth day. MARRAKECH, Morocco — United States Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen says the war between Israel and Hamas militants poses “additional concerns” to the American economy, but she still expects inflation can be contained without causing a recession. BRUSSELS (AP) — Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has joined a meeting of more than 50 defense leaders from around the world to make a personal pitch for military aid. Political support in the U.S. for the war has been lagging and allies are under pressure to send weapons to bolster Israel in its war with Hamas. It is the first time Zelenskyy has attended the NATO meeting in Brussels person. His presence underscores growing concerns about cracks in what has been staunch international backing for Kyiv in its war against Russia's invasion, and worries that Ukrainian forces haven't made measurable progress in the counteroffensive as winter closes in. The new Mideast war has complicated matters and has created competition for weapons and funding. High school students' scores on the ACT college admissions test have dropped to their lowest in more than three decades, showing a lack of student preparedness for college-level coursework, according to the nonprofit organization that administers the test. Scores have been falling for six consecutive years, but the trend accelerated during the COVID-19 pandemic. Students in the class of 2023 whose scores were reported Wednesday were in their first year of high school when the virus reached the U.S. The average ACT composite score for U.S. students was 19.5 out of 36. Last year, the average score was 19.8. Dorothy Hoffner, a 104-year-old Chicago woman whose recent skydive could see her certified by Guinness World Records as the oldest person to ever jump from a plane, has died. Hoffner's close friend, Joe Conant, says she was found dead Monday morning by staff at the Brookdale Lake View senior living community. Conant says Hoffner had an amazing energy and “she just kept going.” On Oct. 1, Hoffner made a tandem skydive at Skydive Chicago in Ottawa, Illinois, that could land her a world record. Conant says he's working to ensure that Guinness World Records certifies Hoffner posthumously as the world's oldest skydiver. NEW YORK (AP) — A new indictment filed Tuesday charges U.S. Rep. George Santos with stealing the identities of donors to his campaign and then using their credit cards to ring up tens of thousands of dollars in unauthorized charges. Prosecutors say some of that stolen money ended up in his own bank account. The 23-count indictment replaces one filed earlier against the New York Republican charging him with embezzling money from his campaign and lying to Congress about his wealth, among other offenses. Santos told reporters at the U.S Capitol he had no comment on the superseding indictment. The Rangers advance to the ALCS, awaiting the winner of the Twins-Astros series, one of the Vikings' top receivers will be out for a while with an injury, and the much-anticipated debut of Blackhawks center Connor Bedard includes an assist and a victory. On the version of Hot off the Wire posted Oct. 10 at 4 p.m. CT: WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden is confirming that U.S. citizens are among the hostages captured by Hamas in this weekend's attack on Israel and he condemned the militant group for “sheer evil” for its shocking multipronged attack on Israel launched from the Gaza Strip. Hundreds of civilians have been killed, including at least 14 American citizens. Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris spoke by phone earlier Tuesday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to discuss the situation on the ground. Biden outlined the actions he and other allies have taken to support Israel in the aftermath of the attack and expressed his horror about “sickening” reports of torture inflicted by militants on innocent civilians. The social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, says it is trying to take action on a flood of posts sharing graphic media, violent speech and hateful conduct about the latest war between Israel and Hamas. X says it's treating this crisis with its highest level of response. But outside watchdog groups and a European Union official say misinformation about the war abounds on the platform that billionaire Elon Musk bought last year. Musk himself has recommended unreliable accounts posting about the war. And his job cuts since taking over Twitter last year have left fewer people responsible for taking action on posts that violate the platform's policies. TORONTO (AP) — General Motors and the union representing Canadian auto workers have reached a tentative contract agreement, ending a strike that began just after midnight. About 4,300 striking workers at two GM factories and a parts warehouse will return to work Tuesday afternoon and will vote on the three-year deal later. Lana Payne, president of the Unifor union, said in a statement that, when faced with the strike, GM had no choice but to follow a pattern agreement reached earlier with Ford. GM said it reached the three-year agreement around 1 p.m. Tuesday after workers went on strike at the Ontario facilities. GM said the deal recognizes employee contributions with significant pay and benefit increases and additional job security. SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The White House is condemning a violent crash at the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco that ended with police fatally shooting a man. The man created a chaotic scene Monday when he rammed a car into the consulate's lobby. A White House official said Tuesday that U.S. government officials have been in contact with Chinese foreign ministry officials in the aftermath of the crash. The official was not authorized to comment and spoke on the condition of anonymity. San Francisco police had not released the driver's identity or a possible motive as of Tuesday morning. LOS ANGELES (AP) — Former baseball MVP Steve Garvey is joining the race to succeed the late California Sen. Dianne Feinstein. The Republican Garvey gives his party a splash of star quality on the ballot in a heavily Democratic state where the GOP hasn't won a U.S. Senate race in 35 years. Garvey signaled in a video that he would lean toward the political center, saying: "I never played for Democrats or Republicans or independents. I played for all of you.” As a Republican, he starts as a longshot. Democrats hold every statewide office. Leading candidates include Democratic U.S. Reps. Barbara Lee, Katie Porter and Adam Schiff. NEW YORK (AP) — Evidence shown at former President Donald Trump's New York civil business fraud trial shows that he signed a 1994 document that gave the true size of the New York penthouse that was listed later as far larger on his financial statements. The evidence appeared in an email attachment shown during testimony Tuesday from Allen Weisselberg, the former finance chief of Trump's company. James' lawsuit alleges that Weisselberg engineered Trump's financial statements to meet his demands that they show increases in his net worth and signed off on lofty valuations for assets despite appraisals to the contrary. Trump denies any wrongdoing. DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The Powerball jackpot has climbed to an estimated $1.73 billion after no one matched the game's six numbers and won the giant prize. The winning numbers announced Monday night are: 16, 34, 46, 55, 67 and the Powerball 14. There has been no winner for 35 consecutive drawings. The scarcity of Powerball jackpot winners reflects the game's long odds of 1 in 292.2 million. The $1.73 billion prize is for a sole winner who is paid through an annuity, with annual checks over 30 years. Most jackpot winners opt for cash, which for the next drawing Wednesday night would be an estimated $756.6 million. MOSCOW (AP) — Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, who has been detained in Russia on espionage charges, has lost an appeal to be released from jail, meaning he will stay behind bars at least until Nov. 30. Gershkovich was arrested in the city of Yekaterinburg while on a reporting trip in late March. The 31-year-old U.S. citizen and his employer deny the allegations, and the U.S. government declared him to be wrongfully detained. Russian authorities have not provided any evidence to support the espionage charges. Gershkovich is the first American reporter to face espionage charges in Russia since 1986, when Nicholas Daniloff, a Moscow correspondent for U.S. News and World Report, was arrested by the KGB. In an AP interview, Matthew Levitt with The Washington Institute for Near East Policy explains the history and focus of Hamas. —The Associated Press About this program Host Terry Lipshetz is a senior producer for Lee Enterprises.

On the version of Hot off the Wire posted Oct. 4 at 6:50 a.m. CT: WASHINGTON (AP) — The House of Representatives has entered uncharted territory after the success of a last-ditch, right-wing effort to remove fellow Republican Kevin McCarthy from the speakership. A resolution called a motion to vacate was brought forward by Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz and passed Tuesday with the support of eight Republicans and every Democrat present. The effort makes McCarthy the first speaker in history to be removed from office. McCarthy's subsequent announcement he would not run for the job again clears the path for any Republican to jump in. Some members, including Gaetz, have been broaching potential consensus candidates like Majority Leader Steve Scalise or Whip Tom Emmer who they believe could bring the conference together. STOCKHOLM (AP) — Three scientists have won the Nobel Prize in chemistry for their work on quantum dots. Those are tiny particles that can release very bright colored light and are used in electronics and medical imaging. Moungi Bawendi, Louis Brus and Alexei Ekimov were honored Wednesday for their work with the particles just a few atoms in diameter and that spread their light from television screens and LED lamps. Quantum dots' electrons have constrained movement, and this affects how they absorb and release visible light, allowing for very bright colors. WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden has announced another $9 billion in federal student loan debt forgiveness. The relief will be provided through existing programs. The details were provided by the White House on Wednesday. Biden has been under pressure to fulfill his promises on student debt relief even though his original plan was overturned by the conservative majority on the Supreme Court. In total, 3.6 million borrowers will have had $127 billion in debt wiped out since the Democratic president took office. The White House says Biden believes college should be a ticket to the middle class, not a burden weighing on families. Republicans have fought Biden's plans on student debt. BALTIMORE (AP) — Officials say at least five people have been wounded, none critically, in a shooting at Morgan State University in Baltimore that happened as students were headed to a homecoming week campus ball. A shelter-in-place order was lifted around 12:30 a.m. Police Commissioner Richard Worley said the five victims, four men and one woman, are between the ages of 18 and 22, but police released no information on suspects and said they did not know how many shooters were involved. Morgan State University President David Wilson said he had canceled Wednesday's classes, and would hold an emergency meeting Wednesday morning to decide whether to hold other homecoming week events. ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — New York City Mayor Eric Adams says he's traveling to Latin America to discourage people from seeking asylum in the city as it struggles to handle a massive influx of migrants. The Democratic mayor detailed the trip in a news conference Tuesday. He says he wants to give an honest assessment of the situation and tell people in the region that the city's shelter system has been overwhelmed and is at capacity. Adams has made a series of urgent pleas for a shift in federal immigration policy and for funding to help the city manage the arrival of migrants. VENICE (AP) — A bus carrying dozens of people plummeted 50 feet from an elevated road in Venice, causing a fiery crash that killed 21 people and injured at least 15 mostly foreign tourists returning to a nearby campsite. Those who died in the crash Tuesday night included at least four Ukrainians and a German citizen, according to Venice prefecture. At least two of the dead were children. The new, electric bus was carrying foreign tourists when it fell from an elevated street on Tuesday evening, catching fire. The driver was killed. A Venice city councilor said he was an experienced driver and local prosecutors are investigating if he felt ill. The Rangers and Twins win their American League Wild Card openers, while the Diamondbacks and Phillies do the same in the National League. On the version of Hot off the Wire posted Oct. 3 at 3:30 p.m. CT; updated at 4 p.m. CT: WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has been voted out of the job in an extraordinary showdown, a first in U.S. history. The 216-210 vote was forced by a contingent of hard-right conservatives and throws the House and its Republican leadership into chaos. McCarthy's chief rival, Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida, brought forward the “motion to vacate,” drawing together more than a handful of conservative Republican critics of the speaker and many Democrats who say he is unworthy of leadership. Next steps are uncertain, but there is no obvious successor to lead the House Republican majority. NEW YORK (AP) — A judge has imposed a limited gag order on President Donald Trump after he disparaged a key court staffer during his civil business fraud trial. Judge Arthur Engoron issued the order Tuesday. The order applies to all parties in the case and pertains only to verbal attacks on court staff. It came after Trump recirculated a disparaging social media post about Engoron's principal law clerk, Allison Greenfield. Trump then deleted the post. WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) — Hunter Biden has pleaded not guilty in Delaware to three federal firearms charges filed after the implosion of an earlier deal to resolve a long-running investigation. The California resident's Tuesday plea sets the case on a track toward a possible trial in 2024 while President Joe Biden is running for reelection. The Democratic president's son has been charged with lying about his drug use in 2018 on a form to buy a gun he kept for about 11 days. He could face up to 25 years in prison if convicted. A judge asked Hunter Biden if he understood the charges against him, and Biden replied: “Yes, Your Honor.” WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House says President Joe Biden has been in touch with U.S. allies and partners to discuss continued support for Ukraine in its fight against Russia. Tuesday's conversation came after Biden signed legislation late Saturday to keep the U.S. government funded. The bill did not include billions in aid for Ukraine that he had requested. The Republican-controlled House dropped the Ukraine aid request as a concession to growing opposition among GOP lawmakers. Poland's president told reporters after the call that Biden assured the leaders that backing exists for continuing U.S. support to Ukraine. TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — Taiwan has issued a weather alert as Typhoon Koinu is approaching and may make landfall later this week, bringing gales and downpours to the southeastern parts of the island. The weather bureau put out a land warning on Tuesday after issuing a sea alert late Monday. Koinu was moving northwest with sustained winds of 101 mph near its center, according to the bureau. Forecasters expected it to bring strong winds and downpours to southern and eastern parts of Taiwan early Wednesday and potentially make landfall in the southeastern part of the island on Thursday. WASHINGTON (AP) — Former union leader and Democratic insider Laphonza Butler has been sworn in as the newest member of the U.S. Senate, replacing California Sen. Dianne Feinstein after her death and becoming only the third Black female senator in history. Butler was appointed by California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Sunday, just two days after Feinstein died at her home in Washington. Butler is a longtime fundraiser and strategist in the state's Democratic circles and was the head of Emily's List, a national organization that raises money for women candidates who support abortion rights. Butler was sworn in by Vice President Kamala Harris, who served as the second Black female senator. Donald Trump's campaign is calling on the Republican National Committee to cancel all remaining presidential primary debates. In a statement late Monday, top Trump advisers say the RNC must instead “refocus its manpower” on defeating Joe Biden next year. The statement also repeats debunked falsehoods about election fraud, claiming without evidence that Democrats are working to steal the 2024 election. Trump has maintained the lie that the 2020 election was stolen, despite multiple legal cases, investigations and his own attorney general finding no fraud. The RNC didn't immediately respond to requests for comment. Rival Ron DeSantis' campaign says Trump should show up to debate and that the U.S. “needs a president who will fight for them anywhere, in any forum.” TORONTO (AP) — An official says India has told Canada to remove 41 of its 62 diplomats in the country, ramping up a confrontation over Canadian accusations that India may have been involved in the killing of a Sikh separatist leader in suburban Vancouver. The official spoke on condition of anonymity ahead of public reaction from the Canadian government later Tuesday. The official confirmed an earlier report from the Financial Times. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said there were “credible allegations” of Indian involvement in the slaying of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a 45-year-old Sikh leader who was killed by masked gunmen in June WASHINGTON (AP) — The National Zoo's three giant pandas are set to return to China in December with no public signs the 50-year-old exchange agreement struck by President Richard Nixon will continue. There are diplomatic tensions between China and a number of Western governments. And China appears to be gradually pulling back its pandas from Western zoos as their agreements expire. The departure of the bears from the nation's capital would mean the only giant pandas left in America are at the Atlanta Zoo — and that agreement expires next year. Panda-philes visiting the Washington zoo say they're making plans to visit Atlanta next summer to see those pandas before they leave. DENVER (AP) — Colorado's highest court says it will hear the case of a Christian baker who refused to make a cake celebrating a gender transition. The decision announced Tuesday comes after a U.S. Supreme Court victory this summer for a graphic artist who didn't want to design wedding websites for same-sex couples. Baker Jack Phillips won a partial victory before the U.S. Supreme Court in 2018 in another case after refusing to make a gay couple's wedding cake. He was later sued by a transgender woman after he refused to make her cake to celebrate her gender transition. WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar of Texas is back at work after being carjacked by three armed attackers less than a mile from the Capitol. Cuellar said Tuesday he was “good” and even joked about the frightening experience, saying his car was recovered but what really upset him was that they had taken his sushi. The Democrat says the robbers “came out of nowhere" and pointed guns at him. Monday night's carjacking is the second assault on a member of Congress in the District of Columbia this year. In February, Minnesota Democrat Angie Craig was assaulted in her apartment building. Craig suffered bruises while escaping serious injury. DETROIT (AP) — Stellantis is recalling nearly 273,000 trucks in the U.S. because the radio software can stop the rear view camera image from being displayed. The recall announced Tuesday by U.S. safety regulators covers certain Ram 1500 pickup trucks and some Ram 3500 chassis cabs from the 2022 and 2023 model years. Also covered are 2022 through 2024 Ram 2500 trucks. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says a rear view display without an image reduces a driver's view and increases the risk of a crash. Dealers will update the radio software at no cost to owners, who will be notified by letter starting Nov. 17. WASHINGTON (AP) — The Army is launching a sweeping overhaul of its recruiting to focus more on young people who've spent time in college or are job hunting early in their careers. The Army's aim is to reverse years of enlistment shortfalls. A major part of this is the formation of a new professional force of recruiters instead of relying on soldiers assigned to the task. Army Secretary Christine Wormuth tells The Associated Press some of the changes will begin in the next 90 days but a wholesale transformation to turn around years of decline is several years in the making. Wormuth says the Army hasn't met its annual goal for new enlistment contracts since 2014. DETROIT (AP) — The Michigan Supreme Court has turned down an appeal and cleared the way for the parents of the Oxford High School shooter to face trial on involuntary manslaughter charges. James and Jennifer Crumbley are accused of making a gun available to Ethan Crumbley and ignoring his mental health needs. The state appeals court in March said the couple could face trial, and the Supreme Court says it will let that decision stand.

Did California Sen. Dianne Feinstein die at home or did she really die in the Senate chambers. Friday is Joke A Rodeo night and it was a doozy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join Jim and Greg as they react to the news of California Sen. Dianne Feinstein dying at the age of 90 after years of health issues. They walk through Feinstein's career, point out her reliable liberal votes and her moments of collegiality with Republicans and hostility to GOP judicial nominees. Finally, they reflect on her decision to stay in office as her health problems mounted but also remember one moment that gave conservatives a smile. In other news, Jim and Greg consider the looming government shutdown as the fiscal year comes to a close and the House Republicans, who missed their opportunity to be in a much stronger negotiating position against Senate Democrats and President Biden. Finally, they slam former President Trump's suggestion that the Republican National Committee should just cancel the rest of the primary debates and move on to helping him with the general election.Please visit our great sponsors:4Patriothttps://4Patriots.comUse code MARTINI to get 10% off your purchase.Nationwide Coinhttps://nationwidecoints.com/martiniUse promo code MARTINI at checkout for your first ounce gold coin at no dealer markup!!

Hot on the heels of the Republican presidential debate in Simi Valley, all eyes turn to Anaheim, which is hosting the California Republican Convention. Among those attending is former President Donald J. Trump. In this episode taped before the news of California Sen. Dianne Feinstein death was announced, “Inside the Issues: The Podcast” hosts Alex Cohen and Sara Sadhwani break down the debate and name the winners: unfazed Trump and Gavin Newsom — and neither was at the Ronald Reagan Library. Then, the race for LA City Council District 14 is also heating up with a lot of candidates, including incumbent Councilmember Kevin de León. De León, who did not resign after the leaked City Hall tapes, recently announced he will seek reelection next year. And speaking of the tapes, Nury Martinez will tell her side of the story for the first time in a podcast with LAist.

Nationally, Democratic Rep. Barbara Lee is perhaps best known for being the only member of Congress to vote against war authorization after the Sept. 11 attacks, a decision that led to death threats and hate mail. But her willingness to take tough, progressive stands has endeared her to East Bay voters—who have re-elected her 13 times—and liberal Democrats across the country. Now, Lee is running to fill retiring California Sen. Dianne Feinstein's seat. “We have to ease the burden on the middle class. We have to find a solution to poverty and homelessness. We have to take on the climate crisis. And we have to stop these MAGA extremists who think they can control people's bodies and dismantle our democracy,” she said when announcing her candidacy. If she succeeds, Lee would be the sole Black female senator and only the third in U.S. history. Lee returns to The Commonwealth Club as part of our “Race to the Senate 2024” series of candidate forums.

Thomas Kuchel in Washington, D.C., and lived for four months in the Soviet Union during the Cold War while considering a career as a diplomat. She ultimately returned to California to claim her birthright, the entire town of Shoshone — a small, once-bustling mining town, whose cluster of historic buildings flanks two sides of a highway that slices through the Mojave on the way to Death Valley. Sorrells shared the story of her journey and how she is using the town to advance a new kind of ecotourism.

By Chris Nichols New California Sen. Alex Padilla recently claimed that Americans can obtain a rifle quicker and easier in a majority of states than they can cast a ballot. CapRadio's PolitiFact California Reporter Chris Nichols spoke with afternoon anchor Mike Hagerty about that claim in this week's Can You Handle the Truth? segment. This interview has been edited for clarity and length. Interview Highlights On where Padilla gave his statement, and the context of it It's important to remember that Padilla, up until a couple of months ago, was California's Secretary of State and in charge of elections. Voter access is an important issue to him. The Democratic senator made this claim last week, shortly after the mass shootings in Georgia and Colorado. He was speaking during a hearing on gun violence in the Senate Judiciary Committee. "In a majority of states, new voters are able to obtain a rifle quicker than they're able to cast their first ballot," Padilla said. "It seems to me we have our priorities entirely backward when we make it easier to buy a gun than we do to cast a ballot." On the veracity of this statement PolitiFact found that on the numbers, and this is correct. About two-thirds of states have a faster process for obtaining a gun than casting a ballot when you consider that voters have to register weeks before an election. Georgia is one example. In that state, a new voter must register to vote at least 29 days before an election, whether they plan to vote in person or by mail. That's according to the nonpartisan group vote.org. But by contrast, there is no waiting in that state when someone buys a firearm. The attacker in the Atlanta-area shootings that killed eight people legally purchased a handgun. He passed what's known as an "instant background check," which can take just minutes. Then he used the weapon the same day, according to the Associated Press. On waiting periods and how California's gun control laws work According to the Giffords Law Center, which advocates for gun control, only 10 states have waiting periods. Gun control supporters say requiring a window or even a couple of days between the purchase of a gun and taking possession can create a "cooling off" period that will lead to less violence — both for people considering harming themselves or someone else. Several states are considering adding a waiting period. That period is 10 days in California. And unlike some states, someone buying a gun in California must obtain a permit and register their gun. But the process of voting in California is much faster than in a majority of states. It's one of 21 states that allow same-day voter registration. That's where you can register and vote all on the same day — you can even do that on Election Day here in California. On how PolitiFact rated Padilla's claim about most states offering a faster process to buy a gun than vote PolitiFact pointed out that obtaining a gun and casting a ballot aren't really parallel activities. It naturally takes longer to get ready for an election than to sell a gun. But with that clarification, and given that two-thirds of states do have a faster process for buying a gun, PolitiFact rated the statement Mostly True.

On today's episode of The Daily Daily Caller Podcast, we talk about how outrage is all the rage on the left when it comes to the border "crisis." With all the moral preening by Democrats and the media (redundant?), you'd think they'd be on board with any solution to "stop the suffering." Weirdly, they are not, as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has rejected any plan to address the situation. Seems they'd rather have the issue than a solution. The liberal mob, riled up by over-the-top rhetoric from the media, stormed a restaurant in Washington to shout down and chase out Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen. This is going to become more common as the left becomes further unhinged. California Sen. Dianne Feinstein has a bill to address the issue, and every Senate Democrat has signed on to support it. But, as Maine Republican Sen. Susan Collins points out, it would make it illegal to arrest any illegal alien within 100 miles of the border, even if they've committed a serious felony. Sounds crazy, right? Feinstein admits that's what her bill does, and we have the audio to prove it. The Daily Daily Caller Podcast is a daily look and mocking of the news from a conservative perspective.
