Can’t say I remember ever seeing any PAC share a candidate’s personal cell phone number in a mass text. This says it was paid for by American Policy Action but came from the same number as earlier texts from conservative super PAC More Jobs, Less Government.

🧵 Yesterday, the President fired the remaining 3 (of 4) commissioners on the independent, bipartisan Election Assistance Commission. While this is another troubling attempt to expand powers beyond that the constitution may grant, it actually will have very little, if any, impact on the election. /1

Just after I talked with Jim Acosta yesterday in Minneapolis, I talked to this local medic who showed up right after federal agents killed Alex Pretti, 37, to help anyone who needed it. In this clip he describes what happened at 26th and Nicollet when clashes started.

I wanted some tips on how to help in the most effective way. We know food banks can make money stretch farther, but there are items they likely won’t buy. I didn’t know the food bank can break down big bulk food items (like flour bags), so that gives me more ways to help on my Costco runs!
