All a ruse. He’s been nominated to lead the White House Gender Policy Council.
Sources: #Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker is expected to miss 3-4 weeks and is likely headed to injured reserve with a left knee injury. Kansas City will have a new kicker Sunday at Buffalo.

Demanding Senate Republicans back Gaetz as attorney general and Hegseth as Defense Secretary is the 2024 version of forcing Sean Spicer to say it was the largest inauguration crowd ever. These aren't just appointments. They're loyalty tests. The absurdity is the point.

I know folks are angry & processing, but count me out of the "they f'd around, now they'll find out" crowd. When Trump & his gargoyles inevitably harm their own voters--and they will--my friends & I will be standing in the way. I refuse to become Trump in order to defeat him.

While we take stock, I'm thanking Biden/Harris for infrastructure, microchips, burn pits, drug prices, guns, climate & other wins that are already helping millions of people, politics be damned. Hopefully most will prove too popular to axe--or we have to make it so, and quick.

From colleague @holmeslybrand: The Philadelphia Police Department told CNN they were not aware what Trump was referring to and did not know of any issues with voting that required a law enforcement response.

Here’s my closing argument. Women are dying. Your vote can save lives. That’s it. Thank you to the staff, advocates & volunteers in our movement who have worked tirelessly on this election. We are grateful to you. Now let’s do this. 1 day.
It’s a simple question. Will we protect pregnant people, or will we let the GOP continue their assault on our bodies, our futures, and our lives? This is the election of our lifetime. If you haven’t voted yet, make your plan to vote today: https://t.co/ISkWR0UcHb

“It’s only in the context of partisan politics where someone as smart as @benshapiro / @megynkelly would take a risk like this…They would never send their kid to a school run by Trump over a school run by a median woke liberal.” https://t.co/BxRM4WEmkB

Hot take: nothing the media or the pollsters or even the candidates do from here on out matters. Knocking on doors matters. Texting your aunt in the suburbs matters. Making a voting plan with your Puerto Rican neighbor matters. Driving a veteran to the polls matters. We matter.

You know what’s scarier than goblins? The far-right extremist playbook, Project 2025. From attacking overtime pay to allowing more pollution, those behind #Project2025 are going to great lengths to create a country for some, not for all of us. Learn more: https://t.co/oHq5EzfK8n

Happy Diwaloween, friends. The Festival of Lights and the Night of Darkness coincide only once every 4,762 years*, and I feel like we deserve an Adam Sandler song for it. *I made this up, I have no idea.

Mike Johnson’s “No Obamacare” promise is starting to break through, as seen here on CNN. The more viral Johnson’s comment goes, the more coverage it will get. Keep blasting it out. https://t.co/nEQDoltwxx

As voters in the key swing state of Pennsylvania cast mail-in ballots, multiple legal fights over how the ballots of mail-in voters should be counted have been playing out in the courts.

This is a clear signal to other states that they can illegally purge voters, including eligible voters, with impunity. But we're not helpless. If you see this or something like it happening where you live, reach out. To me, to local officials, to vote protectors. Don't give in.
