- Well. That debate unfolded a bit differently than the last one.
- And on the third day, he pulled the bill. Inside the revolt to Mike Johnson's gov't funding plan gambit.
- On the ground in Georgia, Black voters think Black men will stay home. GA Dems say don't believe it. “I’m gonna be on their asses between now and tomorrow,” one Dem told me.
- The writing wasn’t just on the wall for the doomed fate of this bill; it was etched into the marble of the House chamber.
- Dems in Georgia have some thoughts on Stacey Abrams taking a backseat this election. notus.org/2024-election/…
- Young men like Trump, for (mostly) practical purposes. “Shit, my pockets liked Trump,” one guy told me at the Alabama game.
- A liberal group is trying to weigh down House Republicans with Project 2025 by literally putting them next to it online.
- A big book, page numbers, and attribution to Trump. The DNC has delivered a creative package of familiar attacks on Project 2025.
- Senate Republicans were all too happy to delay judge votes this week, but Democrats told me they think they'll get the last laugh next year. "What comes around, goes around," Sen. Gary Peters told NOTUS.
- North Carolina Republicans after Robinson's porn shop visits: "At least it can't get any worse." Mark Robinson: "Hold my non-alcoholic beer." W/ @calenrazor
- While Springfield dealt with the consequences of "they're eating the pets," its D.C. rep was slow to talk about it.
- Southern Baptists and Joe Biden: a recipe for disaster. “That whole thing is just a catastrophe, by any objective measure.” W/ @byrdinator
