If Supervisor Engardio is going to beat the recall at the ballot, he will need to persuade the progressives in the district to support him. He has a difficult coalition to assemble.

Is there some context that a bunch of very smart online people are going to provide to me to explain how this isn’t an insane thing to do with 100 hours left? Because this dude seems run down, angry and 🍌 🍌 🍌 .
Trump: Liz Cheney would not fight. I will go with her, wherever she wants, and we will fight. She doesn't have the guts to fight. She's all talk and no action.

This column from the @latimes makes a (brief) appearance in @KingJames endorsement of @KamalaHarris -- the paper may not have endorsed, but our columnists (myself included) have spoken out on the need to defend democracy, and our most vulnerable. latimes.com/politics/newslet…
What are we even talking about here?? When I think about my kids and my family and how they will grow up, the choice is clear to me. VOTE KAMALA HARRIS!!!

It’s helpful, from experience, to be closing a Presidential campaign with late deciding voters breaking by double digits to you and the remaining undecideds looking more friendly to you than your opponent. Close race, turnout and 4 days of hard work will be key. But good mo.

Many don’t realize that the first people Hitler sent to his concentration camps weren’t everyday Jewish citizens, but his political opponents. So, when Trump rants about retribution, locking up his opponents, and giving them “very long sentences,” I can’t help but take him seriously… because history teaches us that is what fascist dictators do during their “Day One” period to consolidate their power. (After all, if you’re hellbent on staying in power but aren’t likely to win the next election, you can’t have your political opponents running around free.) To keep fascism out of our lives, vote for democracy!

I thought this was the toughest interview I’ve seen Kamala do and the best she’s done with her responses.
Replying to @atrupar
WOW -- Kamala Harris forcefully calls out Bret Baier for playing a deceptive clip whitewashing Trump's comments about "the enemy within"

A federal judge will let expire the temporary restraining order against President Biden's sweeping new student loan forgiveness plan — a massive win for the administration. The ruling, from a Bush 43 appointee, means Biden may move forward with the plan just weeks before the election. cnbc.com/2024/10/03/student-…

Just hours later, here's that ad:
The Harris campaign tells me post-debate they are already cutting a new ad with the January 6 exchange between Walz and Vance, citing it as the biggest gap of the night in their focus group. The Harris campaign is calling it “the top moment of the night.” @SpectrumNewsDC
