Comment on Ruben Gallego and Kari Lake face off in debate for Arizona Senate - The Associated Press

Search-and-rescue efforts are underway in Florida today after Hurricane Milton spawned powerful tornadoes across the state. The tornadoes were reported to have damaged more than a hundred structures around the state, authorities said. Via the New York Times: At least 116 tornado warnings had been issued across Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis said at a news conference just before 8 p.m.

During President Biden's White House briefing on Hurricane Milton, he took a couple of minutes to criticize Donald Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene for spewing an onslaught of lies about the recent natural disasters and attacks on migrants. The MAGA cult is getting weirder and crazier as the election nears, but they are putting lives at stake with their reckless smears. BIDEN: Former President Trump has led the onslaught of lies. Assertions have been made that property is being confiscated.

MAGA “Democrat” Alan Dershowitz was paired with Mohammed Hijab, introduced as a “Muslim philosopher, scholar and YouTuber,” to discuss the Israel-Hamas war on Piers Morgan’s “Uncensored” show. I’ll refrain from commenting on the substance of that part of the discussion. Morgan claimed at the beginning that he wanted a “civilized debate,” one he hoped would reach “potentially some points of agreement.” But I suspect a food fight was exactly what he wanted.

Vice President Kamala Harris received a warm reception on Stephen Colbert's show. She spoke on a litany of issues, including a part of journalist Bob Woodward's book claiming that the former President sent a secret shipment of COVID-19 testing equipment to his Russian fuckboi Vladimir Putin for his personal use during the height of the pandemic.
