Oh look, this guy Jeff Yass again. The one who convinced Trump to take over TikTok and gave him a cash injection for TruthSocial when he was broke.
The biggest choice on today's ballots in PA is whether to retain 3 Democratic supreme court justices. The push to remake the court has been driven by billionaire Jeff Yass.

In 2022, @propublica.org detailed how Yass had avoided paying $1B in taxes and funneled that money to right-wing causes:

A thing you're not seeing if you haven't checked Twitter in the last week is all the political betting markets (Polymarket, Kalshi) are actively caping for Cuomo and spreading Zohran conspiracies on there. Usually this would be a cause for some sort of regulatory oversight but that no longer exists.
The Democrats are the ruthless ones? Wild take!

Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.

The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.

"I could smell the onions and mustard."
Hopefully only one more day of having to hear about that guy!
So, Andrew Cuomo got an endorsement from a fellow sex pest today (Trump) and a fellow racist (Musk)? Big day for him.
Another big endorsement for Andrew Cuomo. And it only cost $959 million in tax breaks.
Where’s the original source for this? Don’t see it on Pete’s page
Looks like an Overlook Hotel party
Thanks for the shoutout!
A little late, no?

On the occasion of Halloween, @newrepublic.com asked me to write about what’s going on in Chicago and I wanted you all to know what randomized terror feels like. And also that as the federal government fails our kids, everyday Chicagoans are showing the courage of trying to protect them.
ICE Is Terrorizing Chicago for Halloween—and Parents Are Fighting Back
Fear and a whiff of tear gas hang over festivities this year. In response, even people who aren’t usually politically engaged are mobilizing.

NEW: James Comey asks the court to dismiss the indictment against him because he responded to Ted Cruz’s "fundamentally ambiguous questions with literally true answers." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
Wonder what ELSE is about to come out on him?
Buckingham Palace has announced that it is removing all remaining styles, titles and honours of Prince Andrew:

"Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor."

He is also being evicted from his accommodation at Royal Lodge.

Correct action, but it should never have taken this long.

HAPPENING NOW: Portland Police Commander Franz Schoening testifies that federal officers on Oct. 18 barraged protesters with crowd control munitions — not because of any violence but because another federal officer accidentally shot tear gas onto the roof of the ICE facility.
