DRIVING THE DAY

HEADLINE OF THE DAY — "Trump super Pac raised just $40 in August in sign of weakness," FT. (That's not a typo: 40 bucks.)

THE TWO BIG STORIES IN TRUMP WORLD:

1. In a Wednesday night ruling, a three-judge federal appeals panel sided with the Justice Department, blocking "aspects of … Judge AILEEN CANNON's ruling that delayed a criminal investigation into highly sensitive documents seized from former President DONALD TRUMP's Mar-a-Lago estate," write Kyle Cheney and Josh Gerstein.

Two of the three judges were Trump appointees. Their decision was unanimous. And it was unsparing.

From the ruling: "Plaintiff suggests that he may have declassified these documents when he was President. But the record contains no evidence that any of these records were declassified. … In any event, at least for these purposes, the declassification argument is a red herring." Read the 29-page decision

Meanwhile, here's Trump on Fox News' "Hannity" on Wednesday night: "If you're president of the United States, you can declassify … even by thinking about it." Video

2. New York AG TISH JAMES filed suit against Trump and his three oldest children, alleging a yearslong campaign of deception and large-scale fraud. Her office is seeking to recover about $250 million that it says they netted from the scheme. The juiciest takeaways, via Josh and Kyle The James-Trump backstory, by Erin Durkin Forbes' Dan Alexander: "Exclusive Recording, Documents Bolster Trump Fraud Lawsuit"

ON THE OTHER HAND — "'He knows how to play the victim card perfectly': Why Trump's legal woes only make him stronger," by David Siders and Meridith McGraw

COMING ATTRACTIONS — VIRGINIA "GINNI" THOMAS, wife of Supreme Court Justice CLARENCE THOMAS, has agreed to be interviewed by the House Jan. 6 Committee, CNN's Jamie Gangel, Ariane de Vogue and Zachary Cohen scooped.

EXCLUSIVE: THE IMPEACHMENT ARTICLE THAT GOT AWAY — Rep. JAMIE RASKIN (D-Md.) entered Speaker NANCY PELOSI's impeachment strategy session ready for a fight. It was Oct. 17, 2019, and White House acting chief of staff MICK MULVANEY had just announced that Trump planned to host the annual G-7 conference of foreign leaders at his own private Miami resort, Trump Doral.

It was as blatant a violation of the Constitution's prohibition against accepting "emoluments" as Raskin had ever seen. And, in his opinion, it was time Democrats stopped sitting on their duffs and did something about it.

— This behind-the-scenes account is drawn from "Unchecked: The Untold Story Behind Congress's Botched Impeachments of Donald Trump" ($35) , the new book written by Rachael and WaPo's Karoun Demirjian, out Oct. 18. It's just one of multiple new anecdotes showing how Democrats repeatedly recoiled from thoroughly investigating Trump.

Raskin had been something of a broken record on the emoluments issue for more than two years. He regularly seethed to colleagues about the foreign officials and domestic favor-seekers staying at Trump hotels. Furthermore, he argued, Trump was nakedly profiting off the presidency by spending hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars at his own properties.

Democratic lawmakers had sued Trump over the emoluments question more than two years prior. But after the party took control of the House, Raskin pressed Pelosi to do more: The lawsuit would be tossed out of court, the former constitutional law professor explained, unless the House formally voted to rebuke Trump.

But Pelosi dismissed Raskin's plea , repeating one of her favorite evasions: "Oh, I'm not a lawyer." Her deputies were more blunt: Vulnerable Democrats from pro-Trump districts didn't want to be seen as being overly combative with the president. Democrats already had a bevy of contentious Trump probes; they didn't need another one.

Raskin had tried to persuade those vulnerable Democrats just a few weeks before Trump's Doral gambit. But the group saw an emoluments vote as just another on-ramp to the impeachment they'd long been resisting, believing it would ultimately fail. "We know the end of this story," Rep. JOSH GOTTHEIMER (D-N.J.) told him. "What's the point?"

"Sometimes, we have to do these things," a frustrated Raskin retorted, calling the Trump administration a "for-profit enterprise."

When news broke that Trump had tried to strong-arm Ukraine into investigating his political enemies, Raskin eased up on the emoluments push. That storyline, with its clear national security implications, had mobilized the frontliners and forced Pelosi toward impeachment.

But with Mulvaney's brazen announcement, Raskin saw an opening. "This is a gift," he said in the Oct. 17 meeting, arguing that Democrats should pass his resolution right away and add it to their impeachment probe.

Pelosi, at first, didn't disagree. "Mulvaney is a liar and a creep — I don't let him in the office," she said, adding that Trump was "a very sick man and a freeloader" who, in her view, was obviously using the Oval Office for his financial benefit. She told Raskin to prepare his resolution for a vote.

But days later, when Trump — under pressure from his own party — canceled his Doral plans, Pelosi reversed course, too. "But it's not over!" Raskin protested, explaining that Trump was continuing to blatantly flout the Constitution.

Raskin, true to form, didn't give up. As the Ukraine investigation neared an end, he argued to anyone who would listen that the emoluments violations needed to be addressed in the impeachment articles the House would adopt. He spent his Thanksgiving break, in fact, writing a 30-page memo laying out his case.

But as the impeachment vote neared, he received a warning from on high: If he didn't stop pressing the issue, Pelosi wouldn't pick him as an impeachment manager for the Senate trial — a position he desperately wanted.

House Democrats never would vote to condemn Trump over emoluments.

Two days after Trump was acquitted in the Senate, a federal appeals court threw out the Democrats' lawsuit. "Only an institution can assert an institutional injury," a three-judge panel held. In other words, they said, the members couldn't sue because the House had never voted on the question — ending the suit exactly as Raskin had warned.

BIG PICTURE

CASH DASH — Trump's Save America PAC hasn't used any of its $90 million on ads to bolster GOP candidates in the midterms, and a spokesperson "gave no indication that the PAC planned to increase its spending like its Republican brethren," Reuters' Jason Lange and Jarrett Renshaw report. It's a striking contrast with the rest of Trump's party, which is pumping huge sums into races to flip both chambers of Congress. The GOP's principal congressional PACs and allied super PACs have spent $105 million on ads over the past month alone.

BATTLE FOR THE SENATE

THE THIRD RAIL — If Republicans are talking about privatizing Social Security and Medicare — and Democrats are pouncing — it must be … any time in the past two decades. New Hampshire GOP Senate nominee DON BOLDUC said last month that he backs privatizing Medicare, Natalie Allison reveals this morning . Now, Bolduc's campaign is eating his words and saying he doesn't support privatization. Elsewhere, Natalie has news on an Arizona focus group that finds Democrats' "messaging is breaking through to voters" on the issue.

ON WISCONSIN — Democrats are raising alarm bells about the GOP money flowing into the Wisconsin Senate race — a $1.6 million gap in favor of Sen. RON JOHNSON over the past two weeks, HuffPost's Kevin Robillard reports. "A major issue: [MANDELA] BARNES' small-dollar fundraising dramatically trails other Democrats, in part because he did not officially become the party's nominee until Aug. 2 and had relatively little national profile." Dems are warning top donors not to get distracted by other, less-winnable races.

BATTLE FOR THE HOUSE

BRUTAL FOR MAJEWSKI — Ohio GOP congressional nominee J.R. MAJEWSKI has portrayed himself as an Afghanistan combat veteran in the Air Force, but AP's Brian Slodysko and James LaPorta reveal that he didn't deploy to Afghanistan — he was on active duty in Japan and loaded planes in Qatar for half a year.

"His post-military career has been defined by exaggerations, conspiracy theories, talk of violent action against the U.S. government and occasional financial duress," they write of the MAGA Republican who has a good shot at unseating Democratic Rep. MARCY KAPTUR. Majewski's campaign didn't directly address the revelation in a response.

BRUTAL FOR GIBBS — Trumpist Michigan GOP nominee JOHN GIBBS, who took down Rep. PETER MEIJER in an August primary, argued against women's suffrage as a Stanford student in the early 2000s, CNN's Andrew Kaczynski reports.

What Gibbs said: "[I]ncreasing the size and scope of government is unequivocally bad," Gibbs wrote on his Society for the Critique of Feminism website. "And since women's suffrage has caused this to occur on a larger scale than any other cause in history, we conclude that the United States has suffered as a result of women's suffrage."

His campaign now says Gibbs believes in women working and voting: "John made the site to provoke the left on campus. … It was nothing more than a college kid being over the top."

HOT POLLS

— North Carolina: Democrat CHERI BEASLEY is ahead of Rep. TED BUDD 49% to 48%, per Civiqs. (Stay tuned to this one.)

— Georgia: Democratic Sen. RAPHAEL WARNOCK holds a slight lead over HERSCHEL WALKER, 45% to 41%, according to Monmouth. Meanwhile, CBS/YouGov finds Warnock ahead 51% to 49%. But GOP Gov. BRIAN KEMP leads STACEY ABRAMS 52% to 46%.

— Ohio: Republican J.D. VANCE leads Rep. TIM RYAN by 1 point in the Senate race, 46% to 45%, per Marist. But GOP Gov. MIKE DeWINE is crushing NAN WHALEY, 55% to 37%.

— New Hampshire: Democratic Sen. MAGGIE HASSAN is ahead of Bolduc 53% to 40%, per American Research Group, which also finds Republican Gov. CHRIS SUNUNU besting Democrat TOM SHERMAN 53% to 38%. Similarly, the University of New Hampshire has Sununu ahead 55% to 37%.

HOT ADS

— Pennsylvania: Even though Democratic Senate nominee JOHN FETTERMAN has agreed to one TV network's invitation, MEHMET OZ is accusing Fetterman of "dodging debates" in a new ad, tying the issue to Fetterman's history of tax liens (which was also litigated when he first ran for Senate six years ago).

— Wisconsin: Senate Leadership Fund's latest ad continues to pummel Barnes on crime, featuring a woman whose granddaughter was injured in last year's Waukesha Christmas parade attack saying Barnes "cares more about criminals than victims."

CONGRESS

ECA PASSES HOUSE — The House passed a major electoral reform bill Wednesday that aims to prevent a subversion of election results in the certification process. The legislation from Reps. LIZ CHENEY (R-Wyo.) and ZOE LOFGREN (D-Calif.) earned the support of all House Democrats and nine Republicans — none of whom, notably, will be on the ballot in November. Its future remains uncertain, as the Senate has its competing bipartisan version of Electoral Count Act reform. More from NPR

INSIDE CHUCK SCHUMER — Schumer has moderated his approach as Senate majority leader, playing to the cameras less and increasingly prioritizing results over partisan pugnacity, Burgess Everett reports this morning. His surprising move to postpone a vote on codifying same-sex and interracial marriage rights — even though he could've forced Republicans into a tough spot — was the latest example. "[TAMMY] BALDWIN and [KYRSTEN] SINEMA, along with Republican partners like [SUSAN] COLLINS, told him in no uncertain terms that they are confident they can break a filibuster on same-sex marriage after the election, but possibly not before then."

WHETHER PERMITTING — Sen. JOE MANCHIN (D-W.Va.) released the text of his energy infrastructure permitting reform legislation Wednesday evening, a 91-page bill that "hews closely to leaked summaries that have circulated in recent weeks," Josh Siegel reports. But with Senate Republicans backing a competing bill and some progressives in opposition, it remains to be seen what will happen. Some climate hawks, like Sen. BRIAN SCHATZ (D-Hawaii), held firm in support, saying it would bolster renewable energy. The White House quickly issued a statement of formal backing as well.

But various roadblocks could still spring up: Sen. TIM KAINE (D-Va.) immediately declared that "I will do everything I can to oppose it" because of a provision facilitating the Mountain Valley Pipeline in West Virginia and Virginia, per E&E News' Jeremy Dillon.

In the weeds: Schumer is considering filing cloture today on a motion to proceed to the House's vehicle for a stopgap government funding bill, Roll Call's Lindsey McPherson and Aidan Quigley report . "[T]he tentative plan to start the process this Thursday could lead to a final Senate vote by next Friday."

DEMS IN ARRAY — Breaking through a monthslong impasse, House Democrats' competing factions reached a deal on a package of policing bills Wednesday, Sarah Ferris and Nick Wu report. The four bills are now expected to come up for a vote today: If signed into law, they would bolster recruitment, training, crime solving and violence prevention.

CLIMATE FILES — "Senate approves first climate treaty in decades," by Alex Guillén

2023 DREAMING — The House Freedom Caucus is tentatively withholding its support for KEVIN McCARTHY to be speaker in hopes of extracting concessions from leadership, Axios' Alayna Tree and Andrew Solender report.

— The head of the company that flew the migrants to Martha's Vineyard last week, Vertol Systems, has donated thousands of dollars to Florida Republicans, The Daily Beast's Josh Fiallo reports. It got $615,000 for DeSantis' Vineyard stunt.
