For the folks who are still in my mentions telling me this was a hoax: The military doesn’t move strategic bombers for funsies. There was clearly specific intelligence that necessitated emptying Fairford of B-1s.

This is an important distinction. If stealing an election was about pressing a button, they wouldn’t be spending $7 million every day to save pro wrestling heel Ken Paxton. It’s an exercise in manipulation, and that is what we have to overcome.

A south Florida political journalist explains why GOPers are beginning to worry that Angie Nixon can beat Ashley Moody.

And like Alex Vindman, Moody is proving to be a terrible campaigner.
Moody runs and hides from the press and her campaign for the Senate is calling her opponent "Socialist Angie" over and over again. With gas prices high, the economy weak, an unpopular war, is that enough?

Talking to Republican consultants, they are worried about the Senate race in Florida. They still think Ashley Moody will win, but their confidence has waned in recent weeks. Moody does not generate any excitement and Vance's recent comments only energize the opposition.
Jim DeFede
@DeFede
As Republicans demonize 
@AngieNixon
, and JD Vance tells her "you don't belong in America," they run the risk of having it backfire. Nixon can be a compelling figure. Here she is getting emotional when I asked her to tell voters something personal about herself.

How do you defeat a president who’s trying to sabotage the midterms? 1. Use drop boxes. 2. Vote EARLY in person. 3. If mailing in your ballot, put it in the mail AT LEAST two weeks before Election Day. 4. Vote in person on Election Day. 5. Share these instructions with everyone you know.
