- Trump is recounting to the Values Voter Summit how he wanted to sue Schiff and Pelosi but was told by aides they have "immunity." This follows his Oct. 2 press conference where he threatened to bring "a lot of litigation against a lot of people."
- A Ron Klain retweet makes an appearance in the 5th Circuit ruling on the OSHA rule.
- "I gave him the kind of funeral that he wanted,' Trump said of McCain. "I didn’t get a thank you."
- Spent some time parsing Trump's rally speeches since 2017 to look at how he talks about immigration. The words "predator," "invasion," "alien," "killer," "criminal" and "animal" have come up more than 500 times during that period.'Invasion.' 'Killers.'

- Remember that coronavirus post card the government sent to every American household back in March that prominently featured Trump's name? It cost $28 million.
- Trump is going farther than usual tonight in his Mississippi rally attacking not only Ford but also, it seems, the #MeToo movement more broadly. "It’s a damn sad situation," Trump said. "Think of your son. Think of your husband."
- It sounds like infrastructure week is off. President Trump, just now in the Rose Garden: “I want to do infrastructure. But you know what, you can’t do it under these circumstances.”
- "The Senate confirmation process was contentious and emotional," Kavanuagh said. "That process is over. My focus now is to be the best justice I can be. I take this office with gratitude and no bitterness."
- "The sanctity of the Supreme Court has been upended by virtue of the leak itself," writes @richardjwolf. "That trust will be virtually impossible to rebuild."
- UPDATE on the situation at USA TODAY's headquarters, with good news: Reports of a weapon appear to have been a false alarm. usatoday.com/story/news/pol…
- The fact the map was "doctored" is beside the point. No one thought we wouldn't notice it was sharpie mark. The point is Trump raised Alabama long after the forecast changed, got upset that outlets reported it and is continuing to insist (via the map) he was right all along.
- Yes, I did carry an office chair into the White House today (ours has been broken for months). No, I did not mean to photobomb @KellyannePolls hit on Fox.
- "The second accuser has nothing," Trump says of Ramirez. "She admits that she was drunk.”
