    Graham refuses to take a COVID test despite contact with COVID-positive Senators in the last two weeks Harrison has said he has at-risk family members

    Appears is skipping tonights debate. Mr. Harrision is ducking the debate because the more we know about his radical policies, the less likely he is to win. It's not about medicine, its politics. His liberal views are a loser in South Carolina - and he knows it!

    Why did you tell prosecutors to pursue cases that would result in infants being taken away from their mothers? Do you agree with that it was a violation of international human rights law?

    Prosecutors don't indict people unless the evidence proves them guilty of a crime beyond any reasonable doubt. We should all be grateful for the presumption of innocence.
