The November issue of @theatlantic.com, on “The Unfinished Revolution” is fantastic. Essays and features by Stacy Schiff, Ken Burns, Rick Atkinson, and Caity Weaver, to name just a few. You’ll wanna read it cover to cover. Good stuff.

Anyone else get this alert from the NYT -- saying that "Trump Calls on Republicans to End Filibuster in Shutdown Fight" (and therefore admitting that Republicans own the shutdown -- only to click on it and find there is NO STORY? Even at the NYT homepage, there's no sign of it.

Mayor, city council, soil and water district, and a bunch of bond issues on the ballot in Albuquerque. No issue is too small for your attention and your vote.
