So, guys. My 6 year old's school doesn't do anything for Halloween bc of cultural reasons. So he wore normal clothes to school today. But he chose to wear a shirt he made for the climate march, under a zip up sweater, without my knowledge. I just saw the sweater and kept it pushing. So I picked him up this afternoon and he said, "Hey mommy, I still dressed up for Halloween at school. Guess what I am?" And I said, "What?" He dramatically unzipped his sweater, put his hands on his hips and said, "DEMOCRACY" 💙💙💙💙💙💙 😭😭😭😭😭😭 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Trump tweeted after he’s done being president he and his family are moving to Palm Beach because NY’s government are a bunch of meanies.
Andrew Gillum’s response:
(Also apparently I am that much of a nerd that I just had to battle with my autocorrect to stop changing Gillum to Gollum.)

Ds had his meeting with our state rep yesterday. He did great, I’m so proud of him. He shook her hand, answered questions with minimal prompting from me, and told her about his current favorite bat of the week: vampire bats! “They only drink blood. But only animal blood so don’t worry!” He’s 4 and incredibly shy so this was huge. He gave her a copy of his favorite bat book. She gave him a certificate of achievement for his bat advocacy, a fancy statement from the governor, a book about our state, and a bat stuffed animal.
Fun fact: she couldn’t get Bat Week officially proclaimed in our state because some coal mines have been shut down/limited for bat preservation so some of her colleagues aren’t bat fans 😬
Poof!
Oh! And she was dressed as Leslie Knope from Parks&Rec which makes her more amazing.

Aww Lakes, that's so awesome! A big eyeroll to her colleagues who aren't bat fans, though.

And in news that shocks absolutely nobody, Trump lied in his morning tweets about the jobs numbers:

I’m sad I was too busy to post as Sean Spicer’s wardrobe yesterday. Hope you all had a nice Halloween and/or trick or treating if yours wasn’t delayed.

He's said some strange things, but...this.... Why is he weirdly obsessed with people crying in front of him? Is that a narcissist characteristic? I don’t think it means what he think it means.

So Trump reneged on doing literally anything about gun violence.
I'll pause to allow you all to contain your surprise
