Morning Digest: For the first time ever, New Mexico Republicans won't field a Senate candidate
It's one of three statewide races that the GOP is forfeiting this year

The other evening on the couch, I looked over at my 12-year-old son messing around on the iPad and saw that he’d searched for Epstein’s island on Google Earth and was zooming in on its various pools and pavilions. “Wow,” he muttered to himself. “It’s pretty big.”

Speaking from Canada,
