Presidents Day, normally observed on the third Monday in February, may have a little extra meaning for Bob Low, particularly by way of his work in the 1980s as a haberdasher — also known as a clothier — in Washington, D.C. The Cedar Creek resident, a native of Westerly, Rhode Island, became
acquainted with a World War II veteran from New England who went on to become a Texas-based businessman, diplomat and politician. President George Herbert Walker Bush was a regular customer of Low’s at the Arthur A. Adler shop on Connecticut Avenue, a few blocks from the White House....

A recent Remington Research Group/Missouri Scout survey showed what appears to be an uphill battle for far-left Democrat Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) in her primary race, as she trails her Democrat challenger by double digits. The
survey asked Democrat primary voters who they would support in the primary race, offering a choice of three candidates: Rep. Bush, St. Louis prosecuting attorney Wesley Bell, and State Sen. Maria Chapelle-Nadal. Half chose Bell as their candidate of choice, followed by 28 percent who said Bush and four percent who chose Nadal. Nearly one in five, 18 percent, remain unsure.

We previously reported that there may be some big issues coming for "Squad" member Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) in this election. As
we noted, both she and her fellow "Squad" member Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) were being outraised by their more moderate, Democrat challengers. Seems people are not necessarily big fans of extremists. Her principal opponent, Wesley Bell, said he was honored by the support and drew a sharp contrast between himself and Bush. In a statement to the Hill, Bell said:Missouri’s 1st District deserves a representative who shows up, does the work and gets things done. I’m honored by...

It appears that two "Squad" members could see their time in the House of Representatives comes to an end in the upcoming election cycle. Representatives
Cori Bush of Missouri and Jamaal Bowman of New York have both been financially outraised by their more moderate Democratic challengers, according to a report by Fox News Digital. Bush has been under investigation by the Justice Department for handing out tens of thousands of dollars in campaign funds to a security firm. And now she has been outraised by attorney Wesley Bell, who is running a more moderate Democratic campaign. "Missouri’s 1st District deserves...

Calls for reparations for black Americans fall apart due to 'intense opposition by the American people': Squad member Cori Bush, who championed payouts faces DOJ probe and taskforces become 'a national embarrassment'

Reparations advocates had the wind in their sails last year. Cities
across the US set up teams to hash out plans to compensate black people for the legacy of slavery, taking their cue from a successful pilot in Evanston, Illinois. The landscape in 2024 is very different. Squad member Cori Bush, the Missouri Democrat who has championed payouts, is under investigation for campaign spending violations. Her bid for a $14 trillion federal compensation package is dead in the water. The reparations task force in Detroit — a hub for African-American culture — has descended into a 'shambles' of quitting and...

Cori Bush could be on the hook for many crimes as the Justice Department continues its investigation into her alleged misuse of over $750,000 in campaign funds for personal security. The

Kendra Arnold, executive director for ethics watchdog the Foundation for Accountability & Civic Trust (FACT) told DailyMail.com that 'a host of other possible charges' for Bush are possible.

Between Tuesday and Wednesday, CBS and NBC have ignored their announcement of a Justice Department probe into far-left Congresswoman and Squad member Cori Bush (D-MO) on their flagship morning and evening newscasts. The
probe, which reportedly concerns using campaign funds to pay her now-husband to be her bodyguard, is a scandal that could be used against her fellow Democrats, so CBS and NBC made sure to bury it. The only segment came on Wednesday’s Good Morning America with a very short, 58-second report on the ABC News program. Co-host and former Clinton official George Stephanopoulos began: “Democratic Congresswoman Cori Bush...

Representative Cori Bush (D-MO) said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that Rep. Troy Nehls (R-TX) criticisms of her were “racist and sexist tropes.” Anchor
Joy Reid said, “I want to start with the fact that the Independent Congressional Ethics Office cleared this matter. How did it then proceed to an investigation by the DOJ?” Bush said, “So, what happened was, there is someone who made a complaint. They sent the complaint, I believe, to the FEC which that moves really slowly, is what I hear. And so, because, you know, nothing had happened, they didn’t see any movement, they decided,...
