Trump on Amy Acton: "If what the mother said about the daughter is half right, she has no right even running for the governor of Ohio..."

KC: What about what the daughter said about the mother?

TRUMP: "I don’t know what she said."

KC: "That the mother remained married to her stepfather who sexually abused her when she was 12 years old."

TRUMP: "When did she make that statement? Was it just recently?"

KC: "Years ago. He was charged with it."

Alaskans don’t need any help voting for their preferred candidates, and the State of Alaska has already handled this by clearly distinguishing the candidates on this year’s ballot. The Department of Justice should never have filed this lawsuit.

LEAKED AUDIO: Mike Rogers, falsely claiming his last election was stolen, says he wants to intimidate Detroit voters this time around.

"Let's put retired or off-duty police officers as our poll watchers in Detroit. Go ahead, try to intimidate them. Please."

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Truly disgusting what the Republican Party and parts of our media have normalized on this country. Just open naked racism and bigotry and mockery of minorities. Can you imagine a Muhammad or Abdullah in the schoolground getting bullied by kids who heard the president do it first?

@SenSusanCollins Just a few more reforms, right? "The impact shattered the man’s leg, hip and ankle." #ICEOUT ICE Called Him a Wanted Man. His Family Said He Had Been Dead Nine Years. https://t.co/YSUbvnR8hY via @NYTimes

Ominous email sent to WAMU staff this afternoon about a “new strategic framework” to be announced Friday morning. Their offices will be closed to have the "time and space" to have these convos-- WAMU won't publish anything online, and they're automating starting 8pm.

I've lived in D.C. for more years than I care to recount and I had never been to Kenilworth Aquatic Garden - until today. Stunning!

Yes, April's headline beat expectations, but big revisions to February and March show us there's been more labor market cooling than we thought:

3-month avg in job growth Jan-March, before this data: +345K
3-month avg Jan-March, with revisions: +295K
3-month avg Feb-April: +222K

DC “is a wounded rendition of its once robust self. Even as more of the work force shows up daily, many streets at the city’s core are pocked by vacant storefronts, moribund sidewalks and offices that, even on the busiest days, are just over half occupied”

Immortalized by this crystalline Reuters news alert: PENTAGON SAYS IT WILL NOT DISCUSS EXACT POSITION OF CHINA BALLOON, PEOPLE CAN LOOK UP IN THE SKY

[Doina Chiacu @DoinaChiacu]

Best line of the day: Pentagon spokesman Patrick Ryder, asked by @phildstewart about exact location of balloon, said, "The public certainly has the ability to look up in the sky and see where the balloon is."
