Jack Smith charged Trump twice. Last week a Republican senator called him a “total dirtbag.” Four days later a sold-out crowd wanted photos with him and a rock star dedicated him a song. The senator still has the wrong team. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-has-...

Trump said he would start paying for the political TV ads himself, but the White House clarified that he won’t pay back the federal government for what’s already been spent. About $11.5 million had already been spent airing the ads as of midday Tuesday, October 6th.

An unusual ruling in Florida last week could raise questions about the constitutionality of the sweeping voter suppression measure being pushed by the president. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
democracydocket.com
Could a new court ruling undermine Trump's favorite voter suppression bill?
It’s unclear how a federal proof of citizenship law would pass constitutional muster if a federal ban on noncitizen voting could not.

Byron Donalds has spent $100 million, but we're in a position to win this race - because voters are rejecting the politics of division and embracing a campaign focused on housing, healthcare, education, and no data centers. Thank you for being a part of this historic campaign.
