[0:00] It's a Republican knife fight in Ohio,

[0:03] metaphorically speaking. Deep divisions

[0:05] over a TV commercial in the governor's

[0:07] race that dredges up ugly family history

[0:10] of abuse and estrangement. MAGA loves

[0:13] it. Several Republicans on the ballot do

[0:16] not. How and why can Elon Musk decide

[0:19] how much satellite internet access

[0:21] Ukraine receives? Shouldn't that be a US

[0:24] government decision? And is it credible

[1:16] family members alone. Candidates enter

[1:18] the fray knowing they will be muddied

[1:21] and bloodied. Campaigns do that. Family

[1:24] members sign up for that but at a

[1:26] distance. And mothers mothers have been

[1:28] held in an almost sacred place of

[1:31] untouchability. The unspoken rule, you

[1:34] don't sully or even try to sully

[1:37] someone's mother. It's unbecoming and
