Republican candidate for Lt. governor, Chairman of the New Bedford Republican Committee and New Bedford City Councilor Shawn Oliver was arrested and charged with of operating under the influence of alcohol after he reportedly crashed his vehicle early Sunday morning.
We reached out to the Mike Minogue @mikeminoguema campaign for comment.
“We are still learning the facts on what happened and hope and pray no one was hurt. If it is true, Shawn will need to take responsibility for his actions. Driving under the influence is not acceptable. I am grateful to law enforcement for their response last night and their daily work keeping our communities safe. I will have further comments when we learn more.” - Mike Minogue

All THREE candidates for Rhode Island governor agree on one thing: Commissioner Angélica Infante-Green won’t be staying. When candidates with competing agendas reach the same conclusion, that’s quite the political statement. Awkward.

On October 16, 1986, the Outlet Company building on Weybosset Street was ravaged by fire. Forty years later, @ShiinaHL and @RyanWelchPhotog sat down with two men who helped fight the massive blaze.

JUST IN: The man who stopped the school shooting in Bend, Oregon, has been identified as 36-year-old Kalub Giamanco.
Giamanco, a carpenter, was reportedly driving home for lunch when he heard gunshots.
After hearing the gunshots, Giamanco, who has a concealed carry permit, followed the suspect into the school.
He then shot and killed 16-year-old John J Griffin moments after the teen opened fire into a special education classroom.
Giamanco, who has two children of his own who attend the school, is family friends with one of the victims, a 7-year-old who uses a wheelchair and was shot in the face.
The 7-year-old survived and is in the hospital.
Three children at Silver Rail Elementary School were killed. Their ages are 5, 8, and 11.
According to Giamanco's brother, Giamanco doesn't feel like a hero because he feels guilty for not being able to save more children.
You are a hero, Kalub.

Sad truth is, you just can't replace Karoline Leavitt.
She was the best to ever do it. No one is going to be able to fill her shoes.

Says the man who's put between 14 and 15 times the RI median household income (depending on which estimate you use) into his own campaign. You're not a man of the people, either, Ken.
Next week, Foulkes will be in Boston for a joint fundraiser with a gubernatorial candidate from Maine. Today, she's raising money at the exclusive Aurora Club alongside members of the General Assembly. Two days ago, she raised $30,000 in a single fundraising event at a swanky restaurant in Providence.
In her TV ads, Foulkes describes herself as an "outsider." Does she sound like an outsider to you?
Foulkes thinks that money can convince Rhode Island voters to accept another four years of the status quo. Let’s prove her wrong. Let’s show her that the office of Governor of Rhode Island is not for sale.
