Elon Musk, surveying the crowded field of presidential candidates, at least knows who he won’t vote for. That’s President Biden. It’s his payback for being left out of an electric vehicle summit at the White House where the president praised General Motors for leading the EV revolution for selling 26 electric vehicles while Musk sold 300,000.
Concerns are growing that we might not have any presidential debates after the nominees are picked next summer. We’re hearing that the Republican and Democratic parties can’t come to terms on a deal.
There are more warnings about growing crime in the nation’s capital. An FBI agent was the latest in a carjacking and dog napping has become a craze.
And Henry Kissinger has died at 100. The Nixon aide had so many achievements it’s hard to pick one out, but he did win the Nobel Peace Prize for helping end the Vietnam War.

The start of the 2024 primary season is just around the corner and the polls are coming out fast and furious. But it’s all bad news for President Joe Biden. Consider the latest from the Center Square: He would lose to former first lady Michelle Obama.
Donald Trump, meanwhile, continues to soar over his Republican opponents. His arch enemy, Utah Sen. Mitt Romney, even conceded that it looks like Trump will win back the presidency with the help of independent voters.
Biden, meanwhile, is on the warpath with congressional Republicans who want him to stop housing illegal migrants on federal lands and inside national parks. We have lots of stories about the border crisis on Off The Press.

Off The Press | Today's News Minute October 6, 2023 - A FULL ENDORSEMENT #breakingnews #news
Former President Donald Trump appears to have removed his name from consideration for House speaker by endorsing Republican rebel Jim Jordan. He said on Truth Social that the Ohio congressman would be a great speaker and that he has his complete endorsement.
Hillary Clinton isn’t going away. Not only is she talking about how bad she thinks Jordan would be as speaker, she also wants to reprogram Trump supporters, whatever that means.
We have an incredible story that has anthropologists rethinking human development. It is over footprints found in a New Mexico desert a few years back. After lots of carbon testing, the experts believe that they are 23,000 years old.
And a year after McDonald’s officially retired the famous and sought-after McRib sammy, the company has announced that it is bringing it back for another farewell tour. Cities will be announced soon.

The campaign for House speaker is on and in full force. A day after Republicans threw out Kevin McCarthy, two party titans have announced they want the job. But expect more to join Steve Scalise and Jim Jordan before next week’s election.
Here’s something we never thought President Biden would say: Build the wall. His immigration chief is finally taking action to stop illegal immigration, and that includes Trump’s wall.
The president and first lady have failed again to train their dog. Their latest, a German Shepherd named Commander, has been kicked out of the White House for biting staff and security.
And nobody won the Powerball drawing Wednesday. That means Saturday’s jackpot will be $1.4 billion, the third highest ever. But if you win, we have a warning that taking the cash option might not be your best bet.
