4) If the teacher “had to leave her job” at the school due to the affair or pregnancy, was she fired? Does Emhoff acknowledge responsibility for that and did he do anything to try to make it right? https://t.co/rXB8mHckOV

Emhoff’s statement raises obvious questions:
1) Was there a pregnancy? (Presumably yes but he doesn’t admit it)
2) If there was a pregnancy what happened to the baby? Adoption? Abortion?
3) Was there a settlement with the nanny/teacher did it involve money? Did it involve an NDA? https://t.co/2C4gv1frNw

Emhoff’s statement does not acknowledge the pregnancy. (It actually doesn’t even acknowledge the affair. Just says “I went through some tough times.”) https://t.co/3jbZXgbRch

“McConnell is a political animal at heart. He wants Republicans to win up and down the ballot.” Yet McConnell did more than anyone to hurt GOP chances by promoting the Lankford border deal, producing a bad bill that gave Dems cover on their worst issue. https://t.co/U73CXYdjqp

This isn’t right. Clinton delivered on welfare reform. Too bad Biden and the “anti-poverty” blob are trying to undo it via the “fully refundable child tax credit” (ie government checks to non-working one parent households, just like the old welfare system). Kamala will try too. https://t.co/tTC5eDOUsr
