BASH: The worry is that we end up in a situation where President Trump tries to overturn the election and the result of that could be like what we saw after January 6--

BLANCHE: Stop it! You gotta stop it with that! That's crazy

BASH: This is a president who has a history

[Gregg Nunziata @greggnunziata]

Much of what's wrong with this presidency flows from the fact that Trump views himself as the leader of a faction, not the head of state. Threatening to stop doing good things for Americans in a state if it votes for a Dem reflects that fundamental constitutional failing.

CBS identified Illinois based Three Z Printing as the holder of the permit associated with the fake transgender mailers. One of the owners, Matt Zerrusen, is based in Dallas. His Instagram shows pictures with Charlie Kirk and Donald Trump, and comments from local Republicans.

Arizona cannot carry out its program to cancel voter registrations weeks before an election based on the Trump administration's inaccurate SAVE database.

We've filed an amicus brief.

My prayers go out to all those who were injured or lost their lives last Friday in the terrorist attack on worshippers at the Orthodox Church of Saint George in Hamoud, Jordan. I express my closeness to the community and the entire country, which is known for its peaceful coexistence and respect between different religions.

Nancy Pelosi, who is regularly hammered for her perceived insider trading, has made 213 total trades since 2014. Trump exceeded that number in a single day, which just happened to precede his own tariffs announcement. My latest on the mind boggling self-enrichment:

It’s only the most serious question our democracy faces, so of course the Attorney General of the United States just blows it off. Why bother to go on TV at all this weekend?

Oh my goodness -- for nearly 3 minutes, Mike Rogers refuses to answer Kristen Welker's repeated questions about if he considers himself to be "a MAGA Republican"

Turns out, Elon Musk’s pimply minions didn’t actually want to cut government spending. They wanted to get a piece of it for themselves. https://t.co/O4CB7YburQ

But the *biggest* election scandal was the time a sitting president tried to do a coup instead of accepting his loss at the ballot box.

This tweet is an in kind contribution to the GOP

[Jay in Kyiv @JayinKyiv]

Anyone willing to attack Ukraine is getting a huge boost from the algorithm of the platform, and sometimes even from the owner himself.

Installing pro-russian fascist governments into every western democratic nation - with aim of eliminating democracy globally - means Ukraine must lose, and every waking our of this monsters life is laser - focused on it.

Elon Musk has dumped almost $450 million into the midterm elections. Tesla paid 0% in federal income tax last year. We should tax the billionaires.

[Jake Sherman @JakeSherman]

needed video to believe he actually said this 9 days before an election.

[GreggDoyelStar @GreggDoyelStar]

So much talk about the Indiana offense this season. That win at Michigan, the Hoosiers’ first in almost 60 years, was our chance to redirect the #iufb conversation to that defense.
Because that’s a national championship defense.

Attorney General Todd Blanche isn't even pretending that Trump isn't directing him to file lawsuits

[Harry Sisson @harryjsisson]

Wow. Vivek Ramaswamy believes Amy Acton is “flawed” because she was sexually assaulted by her stepfather. Ohio, please send this loser packing. He’s a disgrace.

[Mike Young @micyoung75]

Gabriel Sterling, the Georgia Republican who stood up to Trump’s 2020 fraud lies, reads the Alaska DOJ suit clearly: the point may not be to win. It’s to build the stolen-election case before a single vote is counted.
