Honey, please! (send me photos of your questionable texts with government officials, thanks!)
Kimberly Guilfoyle was preparing for her congressional hearing to become U.S. ambassador to Greece when she reached out to a Trump donor with an urgent request: She needed $100,000 that she said she owed American Express—in a way that wouldn’t leave a paper trail.
“It won’t show up anywhere if you wire money to American Express,” she wrote on Signal, according to messages reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. “Please.”

NEW w/ @calenrazor: Senate Republicans know they are unlikely to get an end-of-year SCOTUS fight. They are still prepared for one anyways
politico.com/news/2026/10/07…
Thune said he expects GOP would move quickly on any SCOTUS nom. Grassley said "of course" they would try to confirm before end of year
Tillis (a key Judiciary vote) also for trying to fill a seat this year in the event of an unlikely vacancy
If Democrats flip the chamber they would have the ability to block Trump's judicial picks (including filling any future SCOTUS vacancies) and Schumer told me earlier this year SCOTUS was part of his pitch as he recruited candidates

Hard to imagine any other president attacking a political opponent with a slur like “trannie” without launching a significant scandal.

It’s not just vulnerable Republicans distancing themselves from Trump.
“The main reason for the resurgence in inflation is the Iran war,” Sen. John Kennedy, for one, told me.
Is it a sign red states are not sheltered from this year’s headwinds?

Crazy story here - Trump tried to fire this entire agency, but a judge said it was illegal. The employees are back, but the admin is refusing to give any guidance on what they should do so the staff is just waiting around for direction.
Full details from @Rayyyfernandez 👇
The federal agency responsible for coordinating the government’s response to homelessness has been unable to fulfill some of its statutory duties.
Council officials told the GAO “they could not confirm” who the chair or vice chair of the council were and that as of January 2026, they had not held an official meeting in over a year.

Scooplet: What Happened to $300 Million in Taiwan Aid? It’s Classified.
The Trump admin has classified its account to Congress for $300M in Taiwan military aid, leaving no public answer about whether the money was committed by a Sept. 30 deadline.

SCOOP: The WH, led by Susies Wiles, has taken a heavy handed approach in directing AG Todd Blanche to slow walk any abortion matters ahead of the midterms - including in pending mifepristone litigation.
Blanche/admin has told pro-life groups to wait until after election

News — DSCC Chair Kirsten Gillibrand will host a virtual event for Florida Democrat Angie Nixon today, a source familiar with the plans tells me @washingtonsun
Nixon said earlier this week that the DSCC has not committed to spending on TV on her behalf. Progressives have been critical at the lack of establishment support for Nixon. But now she gets an assist from DC.
