7. More alligator concerns creep into the middle and northern parts of Alabama, but wildlife groups say this is unlikely. This is not the first time the state has looked to downplay the possible presence of prehistoric killing machines in populated areas.
6. Never-going-to-be-President Hillary Clinton is mad about Alabama’s abortion law, claiming it restricts the movement of women. As usual, Clinton is lying. Attorney General Steve Marshall has been pretty clear about this, if you help a person commit a crime, that is a crime and that is what he is going to prosecute.
5. Gov. Kay Ivey says Alabama can do expansive road projects all over the state. Ivey says that the pitched battle over U.S. 43 and I-65 is “simply not an either-or proposition,” but at some point, money is going to become a factor.

3. The health of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) is apparently a very big deal, unlike the visibly deteriorating leader of the free world. Alabama’s U.S. Sen.
