That $366 million Elon is spending to try and convince voters that Congress should stay Republican? It's more money than McCain's 2008 campaign spent. But it's also, relative to Musk's net worth, the same as a household at the median income spending $32.

Elon Musk has spent $366 million this election cycle. Philip Bump examines what that kind of money can buy in American politics.

I’ve been studying violence and politics for a loooong time. My last book — “The Field of Blood” —was about the use of physical violence in Congress. So you can bet I’ll have a lot to say…

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

I’m so f*cking sick of the corruption in this administration. Trump’s ambassador to Greece, Kimberly Guilfoyle, pressured a MAGA donor to pay off $100,000 in credit card debt while offering access to Trump officials. And she wanted it done without a paper trail. #CostOfTrumpsCorruption

Pay attention. An ambassador nominee needs $100,000. Not a loan…a WIRE. Not to her…to AmEx. “It won't show up anywhere." "Please." That's what Kimberly Guilfoyle reportedly texted a Trump donor on Signal, per the WSJ. She wasn't hiding a debt. She was hiding the paper trail. Ask yourself why
