    Reports CEOs breaking to Trump. Business wants stability. They know Trump is unstable and his policies are terrible for economy but in close election hedging their bets. If Trump wins he will take vengeance on those who opposed him. If Harris wins, she will be pragmatic, not vindictive. So they won't be harmed.

    "Not a 'Joke.' It's Fascism": Trump Says He Wouldn't Mind Journalists Getting Shot

    The Republican nominee also said during the same rally in Pennsylvania that he "shouldn't have left" the White House after losing the 2020 election.

    Not that I care what Trump has to say. He knows exactly who he is marketing his rhetoric to, and that it will hit the news media. That is all Trump cares about.

    We import more from Mexico than we do from China. That is a good thing.

    Elon Musk lawyer says $1 mln voter giveaway winners are not random

    PHILADELPHIA, Nov 4 (Reuters) - Elon Musk's pro-Trump group does not choose the winners of its $1 million-a-day giveaway to registered voters at random, but instead picks people who would be good spokespeople for its agenda, a lawyer for the billionaire said on Monday.

    Musk lawyer Chris Gober was trying to persuade a Pennsylvania judge that the giveaway was not an "illegal lottery," as Philadelphia district attorney Lawrence Krasner alleged in a lawsuit seeking to block the contest ahead of Tuesday's U.S. presidential election.

    "There is no prize to be won, instead recipients must fulfill contractual obligations to serve as a spokesperson for the PAC," Gober said in the hearing before Judge Angelo Foglietta, referring to Musk's political action committee, known as America PAC.

    Back during '08 campaign, there was a line about 'No Drama Obama'. Meaning mostly that his campaign ran smoothly and was not error-prone.
    Seems to me that we've now got No Dramala Kamala. Remains to be seen whether the outcome is the same, but there has been a notable lack of drama.

    Fact check: absolutely true.
    Edit: the part about the older brother, not the Mayans.
