Summary

A new CBO report finds that 900,000 people may come out of poverty with a $15 minimum wage, BUT with that comes a cut of 1.4 MILLION jobs. That's the part liberals want to ignore. The second impeachment trial of Donald Trump begins this week, and Democrats announced that no witnesses will be called. And Sen. Rand Paul says this is nothing but a "partisan farce." And the NFL used an ad during the Big Game to remind everyone that "systemic racism" is not over and that the league is donating $250 million to end it. But it's still unclear where exactly that money is going. And lastly, CNN news reporters were NOT happy with the crowds in Tampa, Florida, over the weekend.
