Nate Cohn points out that the Times' changed its weighing process this year. This is what the new polls would look like with the old weighing process. So they're already trying to protect against a pro-Dem polling error nytimes.com/2026/11/01/upsho…

Stunning spikes and stunning timing. Days before Election Day, gas prices are going parabolic in some of the states that could decide the balance of power in Congress. Two-day (yes, 48 hours) spikes: Michigan: +33 cents Ohio: +39 cents More on @NewsCentralCNN w/ @brikeilarcnn

The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. vanityfair.com/story/jared-k…

Jackson: She’s always had health care. That’s not the way it is for most of us. Collins: First of all, I have not been insured my whole life. I spent a year running for governor in 1994….

Mike Johnson: This economy's going to take off like a rocket. Remember, Scott Bessent said in 2025, it's like setting the table on the economy. The feast and the banquet is going to be in 2026.

Iranian media report that indirect Iran US talks are still ongoing through mediators, despite Washington’s reported rejection of Tehran’s latest ceasefire proposal. Qatar is said to remain actively engaged in trying to narrow the gaps between the two sides. - Meanwhile, Iranian channels citing The Guardian say FM Abbas Araghchi plans to remain in New York until Sunday, September 27 (tbc). The diplomatic channel, in other words, remains open, even as the gap between the two sides remains significant. #Iran

Can’t stop thinking about this beer garden in Astoria trying to sell tickets to a silent disco in honor of 9/11 and after getting completely flamed for it the organizers were like, we hear you, and we’re so sorry. Tonight’s silent disco is no longer in honor of 9/11

Real estate magnate Donald Trump calls into UPN 9 News in New York City. When they ask if his tower on 40 Wall Street has been damaged by the attacks, he brags that it used to be the second tallest skyscraper in downtown Manhattan before the collapse of the World Trade Center, and now it’s the tallest building again.
