GOP Rep. Don Bacon (NE) announced today that he and other GOP lawmakers WILL block Trump's lame-duck priorities, INCLUDING supplemental funding and reconciliation, due to his pausing of Russia sanctions, propping up Russia's economy, and betraying a democratic ally. Good for him!

The Trump administration is not sending Trump to Oklahoma because the race is tight. They're sending him to Oklahoma to get rid of him and keep him from campaigning in places where the race really IS tight. He is a net negative.

I shouldn't have to say this. You shouldn't have to hear it. We forget it, because we are subjected to MAGA idiocy - and they bitch non-stop that Trump said "no new wars," and he'd "lower prices." Let's remember the thing we shouldn't have to say: He ran for President to stay out of jail. PERIOD.

Katie Zacharia is out. She lasted less than a half of a Scaramucci. The head of lettuce I bought the day she was hired is still crisp. I think I'll have a salad for lunch.
