Anduril founder Palmer Luckey is hosting a fundraiser for Donald Trump next month in Newport Beach, California, per invite obtained by Puck.

My thoughts on the NYT/Siena poll w/Trump up double digits in Nevada:

Not a huge fan of most NV polls, and this one has anomalies, but Biden is losing here.

Details:

🤔quote from one swing-district House Dem to NR:

“I’m not hearing rank-and-file people saying, ‘Biden’s not out there doing press conferences or sit-downs or whatever.' I think the only people paying attention, to tell you the truth, are the media.”
