“If age were really a concern we would not see this much energy around these groups,” said Lobel, an urban studies major in New York. “President Biden comes before midterms and exams and papers,” Lobel said, only half-joking. The groups’ affinity for the president is little surprise given that young people tend to be more left-leaning than many other voting blocs. Still, it may soften the blow of many voters’ concerns about Biden’s age. In the first ad of a $30-million, post-Super-Tuesday, swing-state advertising blitz, Biden makes no excuses for his age, but says he’s been more effective as president than Trump was.

HONG KONG (AP) — Abraham Ancer regained just enough of the composure that helped him pull out to a five-stroke lead after two rounds to beat Cameron Smith and Paul Casey in a playoff and win the inaugural LIV Golf tournament in Hong Kong on Sunday. Ancer’s comfortable lead at the start of the final round gradually disappeared with the Mexican struggling to keep pace with the chasing pack after a 2-over round of 72 at the Hong Kong Golf Club course. His spectacular approach shot set up a short birdie putt that he converted while Casey and Smith both finished with bogeys. The Hong Kong tournament is the second of three LIV Golf events that are part of the Asian swing, with the third in early May in Singapore. The week before Singapore, the LIV series will be in the Pacific region with a second consecutive tournament at The Grange in Adelaide, Australia from April 26-28.

“By not saying the word ‘abortion,’ it implies that it’s taboo or something to be ashamed of,” said Kellie Copeland, executive director of Pro-Choice Ohio. “People don’t call us for a reproductive freedom appointment. They call for abortion care, and abortion is a professional medical term for the health care we provide. Many in the abortion rights movement have long viewed him as an imperfect messenger. Biden used part of his address to thank Vice President Kamala Harris, who has embarked on a multistate reproductive freedom tour.

Samya Stumo's parents are after stronger aviation safety precautions. “There's a ton of work,” said Nadia Milleron, Samya Stumo’s mother who is running for Congress as an independent against longtime lawmaker Rep. Richard Neal, D-Springfield. Samya Stumo was on her way to start a new job in public health. The kinks were apparently out of the system, and the pilots trained for it — all of which Samya Stumo's family still questions. Milleron and Michael Stumo say that the blowout, as scary as it was, highlighted the company’s “production problems.”“We have always been about 'no third crash,'” Michael Stumo said.
