Less than 15 days until the midterm elections! Also, another minute has passed, so there’s another alibi required for Jamal Khashoggi’s murder. Donald Trump doesn’t know what to believe. Seriously, Trump would believe whatever the Saudis say, if they could just stick to something.

David Waldman and Greg Dworkin look for signs of the blue wave on the horizon. Turns out, there’s plenty, of course keeping in mind that the blue wave happens only once we eke out many neck and neck races across the nation.
