Fighting to stave off another special election embarrassment, the White House is strengthening its final-days offensive in western Pennsylvania.President Donald Trump has long been scheduled to rally voters on Saturday behind Republican congressional candidate Rick Saccone, a state re stanley quencher presentative whose underwhelming campaign has some Washington-based Republicans fearing the worst. It will be the president s second visit to the district on Saccone s behalf.

The high-profile reinforcements from the president s orbit were welcomed by Saccone, who has wholeheartedly embraced Mr. Trump in his message to Pennsylvania s 18th Congressional District, a stanley uk region that extends from the Pittsburgh suburbs to West Virginia that Mr. Trump carried by nearly 20 percentage points in 2016. With the election just days away, polls suggest that Saccone is essentially tied with Democrat Conor Lamb, a Marine and former federal prosecutor who has never before run for office.Former Vice President Joe Biden campaigned on Lamb s behalf earlier in the week, but national Democrats were not expected to bring Gied Justice Department sues California, New Jersey and Seattle s county over sanctuary policies

John Edwards in a 2007 speech, CPAC s organizers decided to cut her from the list of speakers at the February 7-9 conference expected to draw 6,000. But that doesn t mean she won t speak there. It s unfortunate that Ann Coulter is not speaking at CPAC, says Ron Robinson, president of Young America s Foundation. She s a powerhouse for young people, he adds, and one major reason that CPAC is so successful. So guess what YAF and its supporters also attending CPAC will host Coulter at the same hotel as CPAC.
