Democrats closing message: we gotta lower costs and root out corruption. GOP closing message: Senator Husted has a powerful ass
President Trump returns to his favorite topic and from the Oval Office says that Ohio Senator John Husted has a “great ass…a very powerful ass.”

NEW: Pope Leo XIV is set to become the first sitting pontiff in the Catholic Church’s two-thousand-year history to vote in a secular election. Leo requested an Illinois mail ballot on Oct. 3, and it was sent to his brother John’s home in New Lenox, Ill. John Prevost visited the pope at the Vatican on Wednesday and may now be carrying the ballot back to the Will County clerk by hand. thelettersfromleo.com/p/pope…

Hell no. This is already the most expensive race in Alaska history, Peltola raised $17 million in Q3. Your $25-$200 won’t do shit. Think of opportunity costs when there are so many local charities that could desperately use your money. Food banks are struggling to make up for $185m cut from SNAP last year. If you insist on spending in politics, consider a state legislature race, whose entire budgets can be as low as $30k, or a municipal race. Your money actually matters at that level.
Lots of people are asking me where to give their money - if you can only do one race, I’d give what you can to @MaryPeltola Several reasons: 1) It’s a small state, so your money goes further per expected senate vote 2) Direct donations buy 19x ads per dollar than committees due to the unit rule - this also frees up the DSCC and SMP to put their money on states with smaller IE/coord ad price spreads and frees them up to spend more on digital 3) it’s likely going to be close! It’s not too late! Any money you send today will get spent immediately and will provide real relief to an overworked campaign workers across a bunch of orgs! secure.actblue.com/donate/mp…

I have greatly enjoyed watching America feel the same things I have felt about Vivek Ramaswamy since the fall of 2003

New: Shifts among Asian American voters helped clinch Donald Trump’s victory, but the community is often politically neglected by both parties. @SenatorAndyKim is embarking on an effort to change that, and he wants his fellow Democrats to pay attention. politico.com/news/2026/10/01…

Very confident in the ability of people who mix up the Atlanta Hawks with the Iowa Hawkeyes to save college sports
Replying to @atrupar
holy shit -- turns out Jack Smith went to a Hawkeyes game in Maryland but Schmitt's team is so reckless they concocted a conspiracy theory that Smith was actually in Atlanta seeing a Hawks game and colluding with Fani Willis. Klobuchar points out to Schmitt, "you have your teams wrong."

Chris Simms cooked ESPN, the SEC, the Republican Party in Texas and the oligarchs with this one. Bringing Ted Cr*z onto College Gameday is literally one of the worst things I’ve ever seen ESPN do.

The table pancake is finally recognized publicly, glad I’ve been doing this for twenty years cc @adamconner @bradbaumn
“I always get pancakes for the table. Unlocks the whole menu. It’s the best. Everyone who steps into a diner is thinking in their head, ‘should I do pancakes?’ But you don’t wanna just do pancakes, but you’d eat pancakes. So you get the pancakes for the table” -Big Cat

Gas under $2.50 a gallon in Glidden, WI this weekend. Even CNN reports that 2026 is on track to be the cheapest year for gas since 2020. Promises made, promises kept. ⛽️⬇️

It is incredibly alarming that @NHL and @Capitals have allowed Alexander Ovechkin to appear in a campaign advertisement supporting the party of war criminal Putin. American hockey fans deserve better leadership from their star players!

This is disgusting and to publish this right after he appears in Putin's sham campaign video shows that @Capitals @TedLeonsis are at best indifferent to Putin's genocide of Ukraine
