NEWS: Biden camp responds to AG Barr via Bob Bauer: “It is deeply unfortunate that the Attorney General Barr chose to issue a memorandum that will only fuel the “specious, speculative, fanciful or far-fetched claims” he professes to guard against.” (1/3)
“Those are the very kind of claims that the president and his lawyers are making unsuccessfully every day, as their lawsuits are laughed out of one court after another. But, in the end, American democracy is stronger than any clumsy and cynical partisan political scheme....(2/3)

RIP @jimdwyernyt — one of the all-time greats, a bard of the city whose work inspired so many of us to become reporters. A truly shocking loss.
