The momentum shift comes after revelations that Democratic attorney general nominee Jay Jones sent violent text messages about murdering political opponents and wishing harm on their children. The same poll shows GOP Attorney General Jason Miyares up nearly six points over Jones. Jim unloads on Jones for acting like a "psychopath" toward the opposing party, but he's not sure it will be enough to push Republicans to victory.Next, they wince as CNN's Christiane Amanpour suggests Israeli hostages were treated better than people in Gaza during the recent war. She later issued an on-camera apology, but Jim is disgusted that Amanpour could not hide her disdain for Israel for even one day.Finally, they turn to Maine, where Gov.

You know how people are always saying, "What happens in California often doesn't stay here"? They're so right! Case in point: home insurance. When natural disasters happen, home insurance is how folks are able to rebuild. But when natural disasters happen over and over again, like the wildfires in California, home insurance companies become overwhelmed. And it's not just a California issue. In Iowa and Oklahoma, residents are currently recovering from tornadoes. In North Carolina, families are still reeling from Hurricane Helene. And natural disasters across the country are likely to get more common—and more powerful—because of climate change. So, we spoke to Crooked Climate Correspondent Anya Zoledziowski about how climate change is going to make your home insurance more expensive.And in headlines: California Democrat Rep.
