Ah, Friday! What a great way to kick off the weekend. Even one we know will likely be kind of stressful!

But longtime friend-of-the-show Ian Reifowitz has an abundance of (appropriately tempered) optimism to share with you! Starting with early voting information, which we can get away with because Greg wasn’t here. But you don’t have to just take his word for it. You can take his word for the fact that someone else’s word says there’s reason for optimism.

There’s a new sequel to “economic anxiety” coming out. People may be wrong about what’s happening, why, and what to do about it. But they’ve each got a vote.

Leon Musk’s voter “lottery” is probably illegal, the DOJ says. But “Who gives a crap about the law?”, Musk says.

You know who else doesn’t give a crap about the law, but does not look like a deflating basketball? Jared Kushner! Isn’t that guy basically a paid agent of Saudish Arabia?

Brad Raffensperger says there won’t be any non-citizens voting in Georgia this time. And yet, this will make Donald Trump even madder at him.

Remember that optimism Ian left us with? Let’s destroy it! Trump’s path to cheating his way back into the White House is narrower than ever, but are there armed weirdos out there who are crazy enough to try it? Sure. Welcome to would-be-Mogadishu, North Carolina.
