Luke Meyer was Trump's regional field director for western #Pennsylvania.
Online, he was the white nationalist Alberto Barbarossa and a co-host of Richard Spencer's podcast. Spencer organized the white nationalist rally in Charlottesville in 2017. politico.com/news/magazine/202…

News: the infamous Willard "war room" is being revived & reorganized ahead of tonight's election results.
Steve #Bannon tells CBSNews he will be at the Willard, where he was on Jan. 5, 2021.

#Trump has billions of dollars at stake in today’s election, thanks to his interest in the publicly traded Trump Media and Technology Group, his money-losing, meme-stock-trading business. Shares are up 14% this morning, adding about $500 million to his fortune so far.

#Maddow looks at the role #Musk is playing in #Trump's campaign, as well as the important role he plays in US nat sec matters & his unnervingly close relationship w #Putin & other US adversaries. If #Harris wins the presidency, Musk's allegiances will be a tricky national security mess to clean up. But if #Trump wins, the entire global power balance could shift as Musk asserts his influence on Trump to partner more closely with #Russia, #China, and #NorthKorea.

“So yes of course before people go to sleep on election night, he's going to go out there and claim victory, we know it. Now, it's going to be... way less threatening than it was before... because you're watching this old ghost go through this same old stupid move again, and everybody knows it was a stupid false move the last time, it will look even stupider this time…”

👀 CNN on yet another #Trump rally with low turnout: There are a lot of empty seats left in the arena. Trump has built his brand on turning out large rallies, but today in North Carolina AND Pennsylvania they have been noticeably empty.
This is quite something! Trump's discount Goebbels, Stephen Miller, is the most vile xenophobe in America #Nazi
His own former rabbi spoke out against him and #Trump in his High Holy Days sermon while Trump was in office
And just endorsed #Harris because she embodies the #Jewish values of lovingkindness and respect for law tempered by kindness #Election2024 #uspol

ICYMI: Jon Ralston, based on the early vote, predicts #Harris will win #Nevada narrowly—will depend on late mail ballots in Clark County and for independents to lean Harris.
The race is extremely volatile though, so it would not be a shock if she did not win.

I'm not a prognosticator. Anything but….
The previews of what will happen in tomorrow's US elections leave me cold. As a result, I feel there's little I'm inclined to share here today, from the many pieces I've read this morning.
I do note that both Heather Cox Richardson and Robert Reich point us towards our history for hope that we can overcome the current tide of fascism:

Via Rupar:
Kamala #Harris on how her campaign will respond if #Trump declares premature early: "I would ask in particular people who have not yet voted to not fall for his tactic, which I think includes suggesting to people that if they vote their vote won't matter ... it is meant to distract from the fact that we have and support free and fair elections in our country. We did in 2020. He lost."
Via Ammar Moussa:
#Harris Director of Rapid Response Ammar Moussa:
As VP Harris spent today at church in Detroit, talking to voters about her vision to lift up all Americans, #Trump was busy violating the Ninth Commandment. Trump is spending the closing days of his campaign angry and unhinged, lying about the election being stolen because he's worried he will lose. The American people deserve a leader who tells the truth and will walk into the Oval Office focused on them – that's VP Harris
Obama: "In talking to people I've realized that one of the reasons people think Donald #Trump will improve the economy is because they watched The Apprentice ... I want everybody to be clear. That was not reality. That was a reality show."
Via Ammar Moussa:
This is remarkable.
One week out from Donald #Trump’s MSG rally and we have real data from Univision.
69% found the comments “more racist than humorous.”
-We’re running Latino voters 64%-30% (!)
#Trump says there are no empty seats then the camera person goes rogue and pans the crowd showing 100`s of empty seats
.
I hope the camera person was paid in advance!

New reporting on MSNBC:
A #Trump campaign aide says there has a noticeable vibe shift on Trump's campaign plane in the last couple of weeks.
It hasn't been the usual Trump show where he holds court. He and his team are subdued and now spending time instead talking business.

"I shouldn't have left" -- #Trump now says he shouldn't have left office on January 20, 2021

Just #Trump casually approving the violent deaths of members of the media…while his supporters laugh.
Trump: "To get me, somebody would have to shoot through the fake news and I don't mind that so much. I don't mind that."
Normally I don't watch TV however, I was helping an elderly neighbour by adjusting their digital clocks and he had his tv turned on.
Trump commercials were playing and it blew me away the absolute BS his campaign was producing.
I turned to the gentleman and said,
"I hope you don't believe this propaganda!"
He looked at me and replied:
"I wish Trump was dying in prison and that's too good for him"
I walked away thinking if this 90+ year old man can figure it out, then there is hope for the US .
Go out and vote and bring your senior neighbours.
