In yesterday's #12 Occasional Reader said: I had dinner last week at the home of two longtime friends, both are also longtime Democrats; the woman (whom I've known longer, I know the husband only through her) is a former White House correspondent, and was a big fan of Bubba Clinton. Both readily agreed that NPR was now just too embarrassingly partisan for (even) them to listen to. That's probably the best news I've heard all week. |

The New York Times seems a bit concerned that Elon Musk is going to do similar political things that the Dems' Arabella PAC does but for the Republican side of the ledger. It seems the plan is to have Musk take more control of America PAC with Chris Young helping out. I can't help but wonder if it isn't too late for this season, though. Most people won't make up their minds until just a few days before the election because they ignore everything until then. But will the constant drumbeat of Trump Bad drown out everything else?

Proof-of-citizenship voting bill push could threaten government shutdown A conservative-backed push for stricter proof-of-citizenship requirements for voting could complicate efforts to avert a government shutdown next month. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have acknowledged a stopgap of some kind, also known as a continuing resolution (CR), will be necessary to keep the government funded past Sept. 30. But calls are growing among House conservatives to use that must-pass measure to force consideration of a partisan bill aimed at barring noncitizens from voting — laying the groundwork for a clash with the Democratic-led Senate, which would likely reject such a package.
