Economy added 261,000 jobs in October. That falls in the range of between 150,000 to 300,000 jobs that White House officials hoped to see this morning, as inflation remains a huge concern. w/ @Phil_Mattingly https://t.co/DP4NuFEDrN — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden kicks off his speech by talking about the violent attack on Paul Pelosi. The man called out "where's Nancy, where's Nancy?" -- same words, Biden says, that the mob who breached the Capitol on January 6th used. — PolitiTweet.org

Biden advisers say they’ve been contemplating POTUS making a speech of this kind for a while — but recent surge in anti-democratic rhetoric, threats of violence and the attack on Paul Pelosi all went into shaping tonight’s remarks > — PolitiTweet.org

@JDiamond1 @Kevinliptakcnn Charlie Crist told me ahead of Biden's visit that more than any other issue, he hoped and expected Biden to hit DeSantis on abortion rights. Calling DeSantis "ridiculous" on the issue, Biden discussing it will be "extraordinarily helpful," he said. https://t.co/26IjFt3mvZ — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden heads down to Florida today -- a state his advisers have long eyed as the ideal backdrop for his warnings against "mega-MAGA" Republicans: w/ @JDiamond1 @Kevinliptakcnn https://t.co/26IjFt3mvZ — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden says on the midterms: "We’re going to see one more shift back to our side in the closing days." Says this will in part be because of "good news" on the economy. — PolitiTweet.org

@hbottemiller @DrCaliff_FDA Thank you, Helena! — PolitiTweet.org

Califf told me he believes baby formula situation will normalize to pre-recall levels within "a couple of months." He said he has not spoken directly to President Biden about baby formula. "I've talked a lot with Ron Klain." https://t.co/o9iCmLJbln — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

The last "Operation Fly Formula" flight bringing formula from abroad was Sept 29. Officials aren't tracking any other flights for now, but Califf said option remains open for “if something else happened that was unexpected, like a plant shutting down." https://t.co/o9iCmLs8jn — PolitiTweet.org

MJ Lee @mj_lee

I interviewed Dr. Robert Califf, the head of the FDA, on everything baby formula — why so many months after the recalls, parents are still struggling to find what they need, when things will normalize, what else is at risk of severe shortages. Full Q&A: https://t.co/o9iCmLs8jn — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden will say that if Democrats elect more senators and keep control of the House in the midterms, "the first bill he will send to the next Congress will be to codify Roe -- and he will sign it around the 50th anniversary of the Roe decision" https://t.co/FN84oQmaoy — PolitiTweet.org
