Good morning from the nation's capital, where we're thinking of and praying for all the folks in Hurricane Irma's path. But Congress shouldn't accept the shortsighted budget deal President Trump cut with Democrats in the wake of Harvey, Justin Bogie writes. Leave it to CNN and other biased media to distort Ronald Reagan's record and glorify a discredited outfit as an enemy of "hate." Lee Edwards and Casey Mattox weigh in. Plus: Tiffany Bates on Al Franken's skewed view of Supreme Court material, and Hans von Spakovsky on lawmakers' proper role in amnesty for "Dreamers." Stay safe this weekend.
