The latest media hit on Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett is a "selectively edited" video from four years ago that purports to show she objected to filling a vacancy during an election year. The video actually shows her arguing the opposite. Also, North Carolina Democratic candidate for US Senate, Cal Cunningham, might need to have MORE affairs, as he saw his poll numbers rise amid the sex scandal that broke open last week.

Cooper recommended yesterday that everyone who marched over the past 10 days be tested, he had not been tested himself.
