Donald Trump abruptly resurrected Bill Clinton‘s impeachment on Thursday, adding the former president’s infidelities to the already-rancorous 2016 campaign. Trump warned voters in battleground New Hampshire that a Hillary Clinton victory would bring her husband’s sex scandal back to the White House.

In contrast, Clinton has delivered a mostly positive message in the days since her debate performance re-energized her…

in The Bay and the 'Burg/Top Headlines by

#NeverTrump conservatives in Florida have one less option to choose for president in November now. Evan McMullin, a 40-year-old former CIA official from Utah, has been proposed as a conservative alternative to Trump.
