JUST IN: The US still has an inflation problem and it's getting worse again. PCE Inflation rose to 3.6% in September. That's the highest since May. Core PCE Inflation (excludes food and energy) ticked up to 3.1%. That's also the highest since May. Bottom line: Inflation is back near a 3-year high. It's largely due to war in Iran, but there's legitimate concern that inflation is spreading beyond energy.

Under Trump: Diesel prices ⬆️ 72% Gas prices ⬆️ 53% Beef prices ⬆️ 17% Trump’s message to working-class voters? If you can’t afford groceries, maybe you should try a $5,000 hamburger at Mar-a-Lago. This is how out of touch with reality this guy is.

Trump's affordability message: "You could even come to Mar-a-Lago. You'll be my guest. The problem is that for $5,000 the most you'll be able to buy is a hamburger and maybe a small dessert. I'm not even sure you could buy that! No, don't go there. It's not a good place if you're price conscious."

It's been 8 months of Trump's Iran war and there's no end in sight. Servicemembers have died. The cost of gas has skyrocketed. And while Americans have suffered, Donald Trump has cashed in. We deserve better. cbsnews.com/news/trump-oil-g…

The scariest thing about Halloween this year? Trump's economy.  Candy prices are up 15.3%, FOUR TIMES the rate of overall inflation.  Trump and Republicans promised to lower costs. Instead, they're making Halloween more expensive for you.

This is the same guy who said *just yesterday* that he's not independent at all - he works for Donald Trump. Certainly easy to come up with excuses Donald Trump could use to demand DOJ interfere with election certification.

Q: Is there any scenario where the DOJ would try to stop states from certifying the election? Trump's Attorney General Todd Blanche: Of course. To say that there's no circumstances that we would ever do that, of course I'm not going to say that.

Diesel prices have jumped 65% since the Iran War began — to $6.28 a gallon. That's hitting farmers, truckers, and industry hard in several states that will decide control of the Senate.

Talking election security with Aaron Parnas. Trump is trying to make it harder to vote because he knows his tariffs, billionaire tax giveaways, and health care cuts are unpopular. Instead of trying to win your support, he wants to scare or confuse you into not voting. Don’t let him. Voting is safe and secure. Just make a plan to go vote and hold this corrupt administration accountable.

That’s great, Mr. Trump. I’d like to report a theft. A man inside our government illegally spent nearly $22 million in taxpayer dollars on bogus campaign ads praising himself. He now resides on 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Taxpayers want to know when they’ll get their money back.

Trump announces "fraud whistleblower incentive program" -- "All Americans will now be able to go to fraud dot gov and report cases of corruption and theft of taxpayer dollars in their communities ... if you turn somebody in and you find $1 billion, we're giving a commission of 1%. That's a lot of money"
