The biggest national story of the day is the ongoing developments in the 2024 presidential race. Vice President Kamala Harris has begun campaigning for President, and a new NPR/PBS News/Marist poll shows a surge in the number of undecided voters. Meanwhile, Republicans are warning of possible legal obstacles to the Harris nomination, and the head of the Secret Service was on Capitol Hill answering questions about the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.
Sen. Josh Hawley revealed new whistleblower claims about Secret Service failures at a Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. The whistleblowers alleged that the lead agent was inexperienced and failed to enforce normal security protocols, including not checking IDs for access to restricted areas. Hawley described the situation as a ‘free-for-all’ and expressed concern that the agent responsible remains on active duty. The revelations have sparked questions about the lack of media coverage and the slow progress of the investigation into the security lapses at the rally.
Yesterday in Kansas, there were several notable events:
- The Kansas Department of Revenue invited residents to vote on five design options for the state’s new personalized license plate. The designs incorporated the “To the Stars” marketing pitch with backgrounds depicting the sunflower, a rising sun, the Flint Hills, and wheat.
- Two special prosecutors announced their plan to file a criminal obstruction of justice charge against a former central Kansas police chief over his conduct following a raid last year on his town’s newspaper. The report from the prosecutors concluded that the newspaper staff committed no crimes, and the police chief’s actions were based on erroneous conclusions.
- The public was encouraged to vote in the primary election for various positions, including governor and lieutenant governor, attorney general, secretary of state, and US Senate, among others. Voters were reminded to bring a valid photo ID to the polling place.
