He falsely told a crowd at a late-night rally on Monday in Dayton, Ohio, that the virus mostly affects “elderly people, elderly people with heart problems,” then went further. “It affects virtually nobody,” he said. “It’s an amazing thing — by the way, open your schools!” - Trump’s advisers have urged him to avoid talking at length about the pandemic, recognizing that most Americans trust his opponent, Joe Biden, more on the issue. Biden’s campaign, meanwhile, has kept its focus squarely on Trump’s mismanagement of the virus.

It is consistent with a warning intelligence officials gave to lawmakers in January, when they said Russia was interfering in the election on Trump’s behalf. - In related news, Facebook announced yesterday that it had taken down a number of [fake accounts created in China and aimed at influencing the November election](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhTa_JP0T9aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wOS8yMi91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9mYWNlYm9vay1jaGluYS1lbGVjdGlvbi1pbnRlcmZlcmVuY2UuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01NiZlbWM9ZWRpdF9jbl8yMDIwMDkyMyZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0yMjQzOCZubD1vbi1wb2xpdGljcy13aXRoLWxpc2EtbGVyZXImcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTM4Nzk0JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgoAOMkqa1-oDP26Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~). - The nefarious activity was relatively modest, Facebook said, and fewer than 3,000 U.S.-based users had followed the ersatz accounts. - Intelligence officials in the United States have concluded that China opposes Trump’s re-election, but Facebook’s announcement — which said that a mix of pro-Biden and pro-Trump accounts had been uncovered — could undercut Trump’s argument that China is working to help Biden’s campaign. None of the canceled accounts were specifically tied to the Chinese government, and the intelligence community has not found evidence that Beijing is interfering directly in the election. - Biden and Trump will meet onstage next Tuesday for their first of three nationally televised debates, and yesterday [the Commission on Presidential Debates announced the six topics](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhTa_JP4Q4AWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjAvMDkvMjIvdXMvcG9saXRpY3MvdGhlLXRvcGljcy1mb3ItdGhlLWZpcnN0LXByZXNpZGVudGlhbC1kZWJhdGUtaW5jbHVkZS10aGUtc3VwcmVtZS1jb3VydC10aGUtY29yb25hdmlydXMtYW5kLXJhY2UuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01NiZlbWM9ZWRpdF9jbl8yMDIwMDkyMyZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0yMjQzOCZubD1vbi1wb2xpdGljcy13aXRoLWxpc2EtbGVyZXImcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTM4Nzk0JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgoAOMkqa1-oDP26Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~) that will dominate the discussion. - They are the coronavirus pandemic; the fate of the Supreme Court; “race and violence in our cities”; the integrity of the general election; and the political records of both candidates.

We talked to Lisa, a reporter on the Climate desk, about the latest effort to push Biden leftward on climate issues. When Biden released his climate plan this summer, activists roundly praised it as a bold proposal. And his recent speech amid the wildfires in the West drew kudos from many environmentalists. But now there’s an appetite for him to make more commitments. How come? It’s true — Biden’s climate plan drew praise from almost all parts of the environmentalist community, as did his speech linking the wildfires out West to climate change and excoriating Trump’s climate denial.

I think the reason we’re seeing that push now is because this is when the more progressive wing of the party feels it has some leverage, and it wants to keep the pressure on Biden to ensure that he takes aggressive action on climate change if he wins in November. To what degree has Biden already purged his campaign of oil- and gas-industry veterans? To my knowledge there are no oil- and gas-industry veterans at all serving on the Biden campaign in the climate policy arena. But there are some people volunteering and informally advising the campaign who have served on the boards of energy companies, like former Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz, which is something that progressives have raised as a concern. If the debate over whether to ban hydraulic fracking has a geographic epicenter, it’s in Pennsylvania, where labor leaders support continuing the practice — and where Biden is fighting hard to win back a state that Trump took in 2016. What is the political calculus on this issue, and how much of a deal breaker is it for some environmental groups and left-wing voters? In 2016, Trump won Pennsylvania by less than one percentage point, so this state is critically important. Biden has been really threading a needle on this issue for just that reason. He has not called for a national ban on fracking, as climate activists have urged him to, but he has pledged a ban on new oil and gas permits on federal lands and waters. Biden hasn’t budged on this, despite overwhelming pressure from the left, and I wouldn’t expect him to now. Environmental groups at this point appear disappointed but resigned, and I haven’t heard of any significant organization that is pulling its support because of his position on this.
