Two stories in the news today involve money in politics, one surprisingly positive and hopeful, the other, not so much. What do we learn from each?
The good news?
The Hill reports that all but one of the Republicans in Congress who voted to impeach President Donald Trump in January are outpacing their primary election challengers in the money-raising sweepstakes. Some by a long shot.
But the not-so-good news?
The bad news story showed up in The Washington Post, revealing that many of the companies who had pledged to pause or rethink political contributions after the Jan. 6 insurrection to those who voted against certifying President Biden's victory are now contributing to those lawmakers once again.
Take a listen.
