I talked to Republican House Rep. Jeff Hurd about his vote to release the Epstein files on Tuesday and asked him how Congress can follow up if these documents end up being heavily redacted or even altered. www.gjsentinel.com/news/colorad...

This is far from the most noteworthy result unfolding in politics tonight, and results are not finalized, but….
In Mesa County in Colorado, two of the three incumbent Republicans from the District 51 school board are losing handily as things stand.

Say what you will about Sean Payton’s playcalling today and the dismal offensive play (namely dismal running game); that defense was OUTSTANDING today for Denver. Holding an NFL team to 82 total yards is insane. Nine sacks in one game is insane. Those guys had a near perfect day.

Trump cited “crooked” mail-in voting as a reason to relocate Space Command from Colorado to Alabama.
So I talked to Colorado reps from both the GOP (Mesa County Clerk Bobbie Gross, Reps Matt Soper and Janice Rich) and the Dems (Hickenlooper, Bennet, Weiser) who all defended mail-in voting:

It’s impressive that these are two topics worth raising social media hell about and Schumer and his team choose to combine them in the most ineffective way imaginable.
Also neat that everyone’s just accepted that childish all-caps Trump-style posting is just how politics is now.

My fiancé, who cares not at all for sports, decided she wants to root for an NFL team this season and also be able to troll me about the Broncos, so she drew out 27 teams on little pieces of paper (for various reasons she excluded five teams) and drew from a jar until one was left. Behold this art

It is absolutely scandalous that the FBI had no insight into or idea about the suspect and the only reason he’s been caught is because the dude just couldn’t shut up. They detained two people who had nothing to do with it and just got lucky that someone confessed on their own accord.
The suspect, Tyler Robinson, allegedly confessed to the shooting to a family member, who told a family friend, who, in turn, reached out to authorities, Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said. wapo.st/4mVlKLL

The only thought I’m going to share on Charlie Kirk is the disheartening number of people saying “Well, he didn’t advocate for empathy, so why should I show him any?”
Criticize his actions/legacy, but I truly believe the people saying things like the above don’t believe a better world is possible.

So to summarize:
— older man is publicly led away in cuffs and everyone shares that he’s a murderer…. who is then released because it wasn’t him
— FBI announces someone else is in custody…. who also didn’t do it
are you freaking kidding me

BREAKING
The killer of Charlie Kirk remains at large.
FBI Director Kash Patel just now:
“The subject in custody has been released after an interrogation by law enforcement. Our investigation continues and we will continue to release information in interest of transparency.”
