Mortgage rates have risen sharply since Trump's victory started to look likely. I wonder how long it will be before the NYT, CNN, and the rest do another piece on how young people can never own a home. Or is this something they just do when a Democrat is in the White House?

Our officers just arrested a man who was stopped during our screening process at the Capitol Visitor Center (CVC). The man smelled like fuel, had a torch & a flare gun. The CVC is closed for tours for the day, while we investigate. We will provide more information when we can.

There seems to be a major media blackout regarding Trump simulating multiple sex acts on stage in Wisconsin last night—despite the fact that it was a sequence of events so bizarre and unsettling many voters will deem it disqualifying. I can't explain this.

@elonmusk My kids are grown, smart, would love to have kids — but say they will not. Because, climate change.

Seems like @FrankLuntz was about 10 minutes ahead of all other reporting — or at least connecting the dots from various social feeds.

Details are currently scant – but it appears Donald Trump may have been injured after what sounded like gunshots at his rally in Pennsylvania just now.

@sweatystartup @innoc_bystander I’m a native. Most people think I’m much younger than in fact I am. I have an autoimmune condition that is photosensitive, so I’m pretty dedicated to sunscreen. But my kids are natives as well, and they def don’t look 40.

@AndrewYang A friend who staffs a GOP Senator (in a red state) told me that Biden as President has been “pretty close to incredible,” given that he inherited a broken federal gov’t w/1000s of unfilled positions, in a pandemic. But, my friend added, they can’t say that “publicly…”

Finally had the chance to try Full Self Driving in the Telsa #ModelY this morning: It tried to take the bus lane offramp. It ran the windshield wipers nonstop on a clear day. It adjusted the speed from 75 to 45 on the toll road for no reason, break checking the person behind.

“We found that the Times and the Post shared significant overlap in their domestic politics coverage, offering little insight into policy. Both emphasized the horse race and campaign palace intrigue, stories that functioned more to entertain readers than to educate them”

It’s weird but on a day like today, this feels like good news. One officer who arrested Elijah McClain convicted of criminally negligent homicide; second officer acquitted - “ apple.news/ATjbbIxRFQFSot…

Make no mistake: any trauma survivor you see discussing their struggle in public has had previous experiences of not being heard, not being believed, &/or being punished for disclosing their pain. Continuing to speak their truth after all that is an act of unbelievable courage.
