Happy Saturday. ☕️

Welcome to another addition of FT Now! A bombshell new ad in Louisiana
details a #MeToo scandal in Gov. John Bel Edwards' office. Let's
just say the governor has a lot of explaining to do... In the world of
national politics - we now know Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff lied when he
said his office hadn't spoken to the whistleblower against Pres.
Trump. Last but not least, three elections this fall could have huge
consequences for taxpayers. Read more below!

New Ad In Louisiana Hits Governor On Ex-Aide's Harassment Scandal

What Happened:

Louisiana Democrat Gov. John Bel Edwards is taking heat for hiring an
aide that he knew had a history of sexual harassment allegations against
him.

Why You Should Care:

Where to begin? The aide - Johnny Anderson - had been accused of sexual
harassment by at least six different women. John Bel Edwards hired him
anyway. When Anderson started harassing a woman the governor's office,
Edwards used $100,000 in taxpayer money to make it go away. Seems like
something Louisiana taxpayers should know about...

What Happens Next:

Edwards should explain to Louisianans why he hired an alleged predator
to begin with - and then why he felt that using tax dollars to settle
allegations of abuse that happened under his watch displays good
leadership. So many questions, so few answers.

Dem Rep. Adam Schiff Knew Of Complaint Before Whistleblower Filed It

What Happened:

A bombshell report released this week shows that Democrat Rep. Adam
Schiff knew about the whistleblower's complaint against President
Trump BEFORE he or she officially filed it.

Why You Should Care:

Not only does this prove Schiff - the man in charge of leading the
impeachment inquiry - was lying when he initially said his office had
not spoken to the whistleblower, but it also raises serious questions
about what Congressional Democrats knew, and when they knew it. Was
there coordination all in an effort to take down the president?

What Happens Next:

Does anyone really know?

Opinion: Fall Elections In These 3 States Are Critical For Taxpayers

What Happened:

All eyes are on elections in three states this fall - and what they'll
mean for economic growth.

Why You Should Care:

The GOP gubernatorial nominees in Kentucky and Mississippi have a track
record of fighting tax hikes and building on the benefits of the federal
tax cuts. In Louisiana, however, Democrat Gov. John Bel Edwards has
raised taxes by a lot - which could explain why the Pelican State is the
only state in the south missing out on job growth.

What Happens Next:

Voters go to the polls this fall to decide between candidates on the
right who are pro-economic growth and candidates on the left who are
pro-tax hikes.
