RNC Speeches Hit Dems Hard, JD Vance up Next, Shooter Reports Get Worse, Royals Pitchers Shine, Mahomes Reports to Camp, KC Soccer Star on Trump Train

   Second night speeches at the Republican National Convention hammer Democrat policies hard... really hard.  We heard family members who have lost loved ones because of weak policy and high profile figures articulating solutions.  In a change of pace, I'm going to give you the truth about what speeches landed and which speeches bombed.    JD Vance is up Wednesday night as he accepts the party's nomination for VP and the bar is very high for what this brilliant writer will have to say.    Reports about the Trump shooter just get sillier and sillier... god help us if this was all just incompetence.    Cole Ragans and Seth Lugo deal scoreless innings for the winning American League all star team as each earned "holds" for their effort.    Patrick Mahomes gets to St. Joe for training camp where he needs to lose weight and get in shape and Kansas City's most famous soccer player joins the Trump train at the convention.
