Nate Morris is a textbook "McConnell protégé." And this is not an attack on him for that - if you were an aspiring Republican in Kentucky that's where you went...and the only place to go for awhile - McConnell got the reversal of the Dem stranglehold in motion.

It turns out many Americans aren’t great at identifying which personal decisions contribute most to climate change. A study recently published found that when asked to rank actions, such as swapping a car that uses gasoline for an electric one, carpooling or reducing food waste, participants weren’t very accurate when assessing how much those actions contributed to climate change. The top three individual actions that help the climate, including avoiding plane flights, choosing not to get a dog and using renewable electricity, were also the three that participants underestimated the most.

But in a rapidly evolving digital landscape, that connection has turned dangerous. Top drivers in the NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series say they are increasingly being impersonated online, targeted by spammers, stalkers, and con artists who deceive fans into fake relationships, VIP club memberships, and worse.
