Episode notes

Kamala Harris drops out of the race, surprising everyone—including me, Tom Steyer qualifies for the December DNC debate, more details about that debate, Elizabeth Warren declines in national polls while Pete Buttigieg rises, the impeachment update, President Trump blocks Bloomberg News from covering his campaign rallies, and one more Republican House member announces his retirement—but this time it’s because of campaign finance violations.
