2020 AZ Senatorial race: on Principles & Values


Martha McSally: It "pisses me off" when Trump attacks John McCain

McSally deflected repeated questions about whether she's proud to support Trump or would have been proud to serve under him during her Air Force career. But she did offer a rare criticism of the president for his repeated comments critical of the late Sen. John McCain, the beloved Arizona Republican who died in 2018. "I publicly and privately, repeatedly talked to President Trump and asked him to stop attacking John McCain," McSally said. "Quite frankly, it pisses me of when he does it."

Mark Kelly: Wife, Rep. Gabby Giffords, survived assassination attempt

Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords is the only patient from Saturday's shooting who remains in critical condition, although she was responsive to commands this morning. In a detailed press conference, hospital officials said that Giffords is sedated and is being awakened periodically so doctors can see how she is progressing.

Officials said she is fortunate because the single bullet that struck her during the shooting rampage at a supermarket north of Tucson did not pass through both hemispheres. The bullet entered through the back of her skull on her left side and exited through the front. The gravest danger now is swelling of her brain. Doctors have removed about half of her skull on the left side to alleviate the pressure.

Doctors said while Giffords' progress is promising, they don't know what future deficits might result from being shot in the head.

Her husband, veteran astronaut Mark Kelly, is at her side. Some family friends have been allowed in to visit.
