This is a thing of beauty. I guarantee it will be reported as fact unironically by the Echo Chamber for years.

You gotta love joe. The smoking gun is juuuuuuuust out of reach. If only we try a little harder!

I wonder if this is the e-mail that she tells ISIS where the key to the back door of the embassy is, or is it the one where she orders the Ambassador to stand on the front steps with a bulls-eye on his chest?

Nah
Its the one where she tells us a video is the reason the attack happened

Trump is considering meeting with the President of Mexico(who once compared Trump to Hitler and Mussolini) tomorrow just before his big immigration speech. That should be fun.

Nice timing for this Mother Jones story on Trump Model Management (85% owned by Trump), which has been having European women come to the US on tourist visas and working illegally as models. And worse, the models are forced to live under terrible conditions. Trump Model Management had the models lie to immigration officials about their status during their visit to the US and about their whereabouts. Yet another Conman Trump example of "do as I say, not as I do."

The DNC must be throwing an absolute crapload of money in the MN 2nd Congressional District race this year because the Angie Craig ads are pretty much non-stop this year. I have yet to see a single ad from her opposition.

Makes me happy I'm in the north metro. I've seen nary a political ad all year, other than the occasional Stewart Mills ponytail flashback. Then it makes me sad because I know why I haven't. At least they took down that Pray Away the Gay ad on Highway 10.

Trump(and Rudy!) going to Mexico before his big speech is interesting. Trump has quickly developed a reputation among his advisors/other influence seekers as a guy that strongly believes whatever the last person he spoke to told him. Maybe he'll come out this tomorrow saying we should build a bridge or an eight-lane highway instead of a wall.

If Drumpf takes even a half step back the Palin Wing of his shaky coalition will destroy him. All he has is immigration and even softening a bit caused them to lose their lunch...if he backs down after meeting El Presidente the last bastion of money he has will walk away. Not to mention no one in the middle will all of a sudden trust him after a massive flip flop.

My guess is he will talk about how well it went and how they are on the same page and then Mexico will deny it and rip him a new one. that is what he wants, this is a full on troll move just like when he met with the Senate Republicans.

Keep running it that out there as if 1) it matters 2) that's a fully contextual representation of the event.

Actually seeing quite a few Mills adds. As the TC are nowhere near the 7th district, I assume its the money earmarked for Trump but rather being spent on local congress races.

No, the mills-Nolan district was tightly contested last election. I saw more ads for that race than any during 2014 or this year. It has zero to do with the trump race.

Angie Craig is being showered with money because it's a district that had been red for a long-azz time and the DFL correctly senses weakness. It's gone red for all but eight years since 1941. Every other congressional district is set. I don't even have someone legitimately running against McCollum in my district. They haven't in years. She's won by 20-30%.

Also, the 7th is Colin Peterson, not Nolan-Mills. Peterson had a bloody race in 2014. The 8th is Nolan-Mills. It stretches all the way down through North Branch and borders Anoka County. It's no reason you see ads on the big stations based in the Cities. The state doesn't really have any other large stations until you hit Duluth and maybe the EGF or Fargo area. This is pretty much true for most of the state.

Sounds about right. Way too late for a pivot at this point and Trump is finding out he's got the same problem as every Gooper nominee. If he moderates an inch he loses the base. But if he doesn't moderate he's stuck at 40% of the vote.

Hillary earned $30+ million yesterday between her campaign and down-ticket races.

One of the National Enquirer wannabes of the web. At least these guys haven't claimed that Bill fathered an alien love child with Pamela Anderson.
