Marc Short is the kind of conservative Democrats hope abandon Trump: was loyal to him, but disgusted with what happened on Jan. 6.

Short has spent weeks leading debates with students on the future of his party, while having a similar debate with himself. notus.org/trump-2024/mar…

New from me: Johnson’s future, and the future of his national security plan, is under fire. And Republicans in support of Johnson are NOT happy about it.

Here’s what Rep. Mike Kelly told me today:
