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.

Gas prices are “temporarily” high, says the president.
That’s because Republicans are temporarily in power.
Vote.

Jared Kushner does not have any security clearances.
So his claim about divulging classified information, would mean he is admitting to illegal access of classified information….
Jared Kushner’s attorneys at Clare Locke have sent Vanity Fair a formal demand letter disputing the story and demanding its removal.
It can be very difficult for current and former intelligence customers to pursue defamation cases, not because they face a different legal standard, but because proving their case may require classified evidence they are not authorized to disclose.
I’m not making a prediction about whether Kushner will or won’t file suit…just pointing out that it’s more challenging for him than for most.

22 US lawmakers are demanding Trump fully enforce Russia sanctions by October 18, targeting Russian banks, oligarchs, energy buyers and the shadow fleet. They also demand he revoke a license permitting Russian diesel transactions. The letter does not specify consequences if Trump refuses.

In Dubai, Paxton and his girlfriend watched fireworks at a party with two fugitives who had failed to return to the U.S. to face federal healthcare fraud charges. One of them, Anosh Ahmed, had donated $190,000 to Paxton.

I challenged Ken Paxton to a debate 85 days ago, but no one has heard from him.
People are getting worried.
I’ve received credible reports he's suffering from a rare condition that causes clinical levels of cowardice.
@KenPaxtonTX: I am asking for proof of ability to debate.

NEW: Ten years on, Prime Minister @andyburnham tells @campbellclaret & @RoryStewartUK that there was ‘clear’ Russian interference in the Brexit vote.
FINALLY after years of cover-ups & denials from the highest levels of the UK govt. That in itself deserves an inquiry.

Ken Paxton plans to cut Social Security and Medicare.
He’s telling seniors to “suck it up” while he owns 15 homes and increases his net worth up to $27 million.
Ken Paxton doesn’t serve us. He serves himself.

Israeli, US and Russian disinformation networks are working together to spread and amplify chaos in France in order to manipulate and influence the French election. This is the same network that spread disinformation and chaos in Ceuta, Spain, and Alberta separatism in Canada.

And this is *exactly* why we need independent journalism, folks. And the only hope of that is if people pay for it. This is not news, it's propaganda.

Leaked audio of Ken Paxton desperately trying to distance himself from Trump:
"I've never been in a race where I felt like I had less control over a campaign... I don't have the ability to change anything... Make sure that we are maximizing every cent so that people understand the difference between him and me"

NEW in @playbookdc: Ken Paxton in leaked audio vents over his campaign being run by DC:
“I don’t control message or what we’re doing”
“I’ve never been in a race where I felt less control over the campaign…it’s all coming — you know — from DC”

The illegal kidnapping of Nicolás Maduro has paved the way for BP and Shell to return to Venezuela and plunder its natural resources.
Britain's Foreign Office appears to have been helping them.

The president was talking about Venezuela's role in drug trafficking, then started talking about the attack on Iran's nuclear sites...mistakenly mentioned drugs...and then, instead of just correcting himself, decided to pretend Iran's nuclear sites were indeed "drug factories." teapaw.org/Acyn/status/2105839593…
