Good morning! In today's Upshot: an extremely comprehensive account of how @realDonaldTrump has changed his messaging around a "great wall" with Mexico. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
I enjoy this bar chart: nytimes.com/interactive/20…
One of my favorite things I learned is that almost all the details then-candidate Trump offered about the wall were that it would have "beautiful doors." (Recently, he has said it would be made of American steel.)

HRC's born into a SRA family? HRC's mom locked in her room for a year by grandma wearing black, abused, neglected, and abandoned by own mother, Hillary's grandmother. Reading into it, guessing Hillary's grandmother and great grandmother were witches.

nytimes.com/interactive/pr…
Hillary is a known member of at least two a covens, and Chelsea wears upside down crosses and tweets openly about Satanism. After reading this is pretty clear HRC was born into a long line of real witches.
Strange how I found this info

Was digging into this coded tweet

So nice how well
And I saw son ice Howell
Searched JFKjr Howell and find out Hillary's mom's maiden name was Howell

Makes me think of owl

Here it is kids! From @BrookingsInst
All the factual reasons why a #Wall is simply a bad idea.
✔️Unknown price tag
✔️Won't stop human trafficking, won't stop drugs, won't reduce crime
✔️Won't help the U.S. economy
✔️Will hurt communities & the environment

Now, in case anyone actually thinks the Democrats are just being obstructionist for the sake of obstructing let me remind you that, in this case, the "Tax and Spend" party is actually being quite reasonable.

If nobody, including the President himself, has no clear idea of how much a phantomatic #BorderWall could eventually cost why should the US Taxpayers even begin to give the govt. their money?

Easily the best piece I’ve seen on the state of current US-Mexico border barriers. Photo led. 700 of the 2,000 miles already has wall or fence. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
Most of current fencing is on government-owned ground west of El Paso. A mixture of 10ft+ barriers near towns and shorter fences to stop vehicles in more rural areas.
Number of people caught crossing illegally is down 82% from 2000 peak. 16,000+ border patrol agents currently in place.

Have questions about scheduled Healthcare.gov downtime maintenance windows? We have an explainer just in time for the start of open enrollment period, which begins tomorrow. 1/5 sunlightfoundation.com/2018/10/31/exp…
Healthcare.gov is a critical part of making Obamacare work, so last year, downtimes caused a lot of worry. And that was with good reason, given the attacks by Trump on the law. A year later, the downtimes look like less of a problem. 2/5 nytimes.com/interactive/20…
CMS didn’t provide as much detail about their systems as we would have liked, but experts and former officials helped us answer specific questions.

For example: Why does CMS schedule downtimes for Sunday mornings? CMS likely needs to coordinate downtimes with other agencies. 3/5

NE02, final. Bacon 51, Eastman 42
A good result for Republicans, though not a huge surprise in a lean Rep. district. Still, this could have been a top race and it doesn't look like one.
nytimes.com/interactive/20…
As an aside, I believe this is the first race where Republicans have beaten @Redistrict expectations in 12 days, and they only did it by a net-2 points
Washington 8, final. Schrier (D) 46, Rossi (R) 45
America's greatest district posts our second closest result yet, trailing only Kentucky 6

Since 1851, obituaries in @nytimes have been dominated by white men. Just 20% have been women.

Today we introduce Overlooked — a project to write the obituaries for the women who never got them, but should have.

nytimes.com/interactive/20…
Women who were Overlooked include:
—Ida B. Wells, Journalist
—Ada Lovelace, Computer Programmer
—Charlotte Bronte, Author of “Jane Eyre”
—Emily Warren Roebling, “surrogate engineer” of the Brooklyn Bridge
Diane Arbus didn’t receive an obit.

Neither did Sylvia Plath.

Those who did receive obits were often comical. When she died in 1953, Frida Kahlo was referred to in the first sentence as the “wife of Diego Rivera,” and later as a painter.
