Classified docs - a shopping analogy: As Biden walked out, the buzzer went off and he realized he mistakenly failed to pay for an item in his cart. He went back in and returned it. Trump stuffed items in his pockets. When the buzzer sounded, he ran to his car and peeled out.

Sacramento County is opening Cal Expo for unhoused guests starting today, ahead of the next round of storms. They've never done that before. Story to come.

SO MANY MOTHERFUCKERS
