    A memo sent to donors Saturday from the presidential campaign of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis criticizes former President Donald Trump and dismisses other GOP rivals, even as his own polling numbers drop and remain stagnant. The memo, first obtained and reported on by CBS News, reassures donors and supporters of the campaign's confidence in the governor's standing ahead of next Wednesday's primary debate in California. It encourages them to "help echo the governor's message" on social media throughout the debate, and comes as the latest campaign finance quarter ends Sept. 30. DeSantis "is the only candidate that can beat both...

    Monday evening, I had reached a low point after several rejection letters and no feedback on my follow-ups. In the last 6 weeks, I sent 166 resumes and followed-up in person or on the phone about 3 times as much. I was very depressed. Although Agnostic, I said a prayer to God, hoping that if he was out there, he would hear me. Tuesday morning, I woke early. An incredible calm and total peace was instilled in me. I can't explain it. I just knew everything was going to be alright. I told my wife that day before I went...

    Hurricane refugee arrested in Atlanta for panhandling 06:04 PM CDT on Wednesday, September 7, 2005 Errin Haines / Associated Press ATLANTA -- A man who fled Louisiana with his family to escape Hurricane Katrina was arrested for asking motorists for money in this city where panhandling has been one of the most contentious issues lately.

    Ever since his Bush-bashing 60 Minutes report, the CBS icon has been the right wing’s favorite whipping boy (well, they weren’t exactly fans before then, either). But when he leaves the anchor’s chair on March 9, he has no intention of giving up the fight. A LIGHT SNOW dusts the sprawling CBS News complex in Hell’s Kitchen, on New York’s West Side, as a figure in a black slouch hat and long trench coat swirls through the Fifty-seventh Street door, bids good cheer to the security guards in the lobby, then vanishes into the bowels of the newsroom: Dan Rather...
