DRIVING THE DAY

DOUG CALL IT A COMEBACK — In a rare sit-down interview with a mainstream news outlet, former Pennsylvania GOP gubernatorial nominee DOUG MASTRIANO tells Holly Otterbein that he’s weighing a run against Democratic Sen. BOB CASEY JR. next year. Mastriano, who lost his 2022 race by 15 points, “said he is ‘praying’ about whether to go forward with a potential Senate run in 2024,” Holly reports from Harrisburg. “After God, his wife, REBBIE, will have the final word, he said.”

FIRST IN PLAYBOOK — A prominent Democratic think tank is raising alarms about a third-party ticket spoiling 2024 for Democrats and landing DONALD TRUMP back in the White House.

A new two-page memo from Third Way, obtained by Playbook, takes aim at the potential “unity ticket” being promoted by the centrist group No Labels. With tens of millions of dollars in financial backing, No Labels’ stated intention is to nominate a moderate alternative to potential extreme major-party nominees as an “insurance policy.”

But Third Way notes that No Labels has been cagey about what scenario would prompt it to move forward, including whether it would stand down if President JOE BIDEN seeks reelection. In any case, the memo argues, a third-party ticket would mainly peel off Democrats, ultimately boosting the former president who tried to steal an election and incited a riot on the Capitol.

“[T[he conclusion is inescapable: No Labels is committed to fielding a candidate that will, intentionally or not, provide a crucial boost to Republicans — and a major obstacle to Biden,” they write. “As a result, they’ll make it far more likely — if not certain — that Donald Trump returns to the White House.” Read the memo

RISING DEM ANXIETY — Worries about a potential 2024 spoiler ticket have been percolating among Democrats for months, ever since news of No Labels’ $70 million fundraising goal trickled out last year. But in recent weeks, that anxiety has been heightened as the group — even amid internal turmoil — has put hundreds of petition circulators on the ground nationwide in a bid to win ballot access in key swing states that, in some cases, were decided by a few percentage points or less.

“Definitely people are thinking about how to prevent that nightmare scenario,” said a national Democratic strategist not affiliated with Third Way who described “agita” among party operatives. “No one knows how real it is yet, though.”

Third Way’s memo is aimed at surfacing those worries and making a data-driven case for the danger a third-party ticket poses to Democrats. It follows a CNN op-ed last week from veteran strategist PAUL BEGALA, who cited a previous Third Way analysis in claiming “the vast majority of votes that a No Labels presidential candidate would receive would likely come out of President Joe Biden’s pool of potential voters, not former President Donald Trump’s.”

The new memo notes that third-party voters from 2016 backed Biden by 30 points in 2020, a crucial bloc in helping the former vice president oust Trump. And voters who said they don’t like either party — what Third Way calls “double haters” — backed Biden by 15 points after HILLARY CLINTON had lost the same group by 17 points four years earlier.

Third Way also argues that No Labels is targeting Democratic voters “by their own admission,” citing an electoral map the group has circulated showing a unity ticket’s path to victory — winning two-thirds of their electoral votes in states Biden won in 2020, including such Democratic strongholds as Illinois, Washington and Biden’s home state of Delaware.

And a No Labels ticket would not have to be especially successful to spoil a Democratic win, the memo points out: Biden won six of the seven most competitive states by three points or fewer. As such, it argues, “even a paltry third-party performance would put 79 Biden electoral votes at risk.”

 

A message from Amazon:

80% of employees reported skills training is one of their top priorities according to a recent survey by Workplace Intelligence. But many don’t have access to the programs and opportunities they need to advance their careers.

That’s why Amazon has committed $1.2 billion to free technical training and prepaid tuition, so all of their employees have the opportunity to learn and earn more.

Read about employees who benefit.

 

THE PUSHBACK — In a statement to Playbook, No Labels rebuffed Third Way’s assessment, arguing that “our polling resolutely demonstrates that this ticket would draw voters from both sides equally.” The group said it would not run a candidate itself but would ensure a “launching pad” is ready for a third-party candidate should Republicans and Democrats choose unappealing candidates.

“If the two presidential nominees in 2024 decide to placate the extreme voices in their respective parties — there will be a once in a generation opening for a centrist candidate to run and win the White House,” the group said. “It is time for the center of this country to have a voice and a seat at the table. Those that seek to malign this effort with unfounded conventional thinking are protecting the establishment status quo and missing the larger yearnings of the American public.”

Notably, Third Way isn’t the only group that believes a third-party candidate would disproportionately steal away Democratic voters. A post-midterm survey of 2,500 registered voters in 10 battleground congressional districts conducted by the D.C.-based Bullfinch Group found that 45% of Democrats said they were “likely” to “consider voting for a third-party candidate who was Independent, not Republican or Democrat.” Only 35% of Republicans said the same.

That finding came amid an overall shift away from the traditional red-vs.-blue party structure, at least in congressional races. Between August and November, the percentage of voters that picked a Democrat as being “best to represent you or your neighbors in Congress” declined two points to 18%, while those choosing a Republican declined six points to 19%. Meanwhile, those who preferred a candidate “who works and votes with both Republicans and Democrats” rose by nine points to 58%.

“This all may be telling to why, by a 30-point margin, registered voters think Americans would be better off if some congressional districts elected Independent candidates,” the study concluded.

Good Tuesday morning. Thanks for reading Playbook. Drop us a line: Rachael Bade, Eugene Daniels, Ryan Lizza.

BUDGET BITE — In its first salvo in the expected budget rollout this week, the Biden Administration released a fact sheet outlining its plans on Medicare. It’s no surprise the administration started there, considering the long-running back-and-forth with Republicans on the topic. The administration claims its proposals would extend the solvency of Medicare’s Hospital Insurance Trust Fund “by at least 25 years.”

Biden’s proposal includes: 

  • Increasing the tax rate for Medicare on income above $400,000 from 3.8 percent to 5 percent. 
  • Close tax loopholes that shields some income earned by those making more than $400,000. 
  • Take the savings from newly allowed prescription drug negotiations to the Hospital Insurance Trust Fund. The administration says it will amount to $200 billion credit to the fund over 10 years. 

“MAGA Republicans have a different view. They want to repeal the Inflation Reduction Act. That means they want to take away the power we just gave to Medicare to negotiate for lower prescription drug prices,” Biden writes in a NYT op-ed out this morning. "If the MAGA Republicans get their way, seniors will pay higher out-of-pocket costs on prescription drugs and insulin, the deficit will be bigger, and Medicare will be weaker."

Biden’s full budget is expected on Thursday. (More on the proposal from WaPo’s Jeff Stein)

BIDEN’S TUESDAY:

10:15 a.m.: The president and VP KAMALA HARRIS will receive the President’s Daily Brief.

Press secretary KARINE JEAN-PIERRE will brief at 1:30 p.m.

THE HOUSE will meet at noon to consider a handful of legislation.

THE SENATE will meet at 10 a.m. to resume consideration for a number of judicial nominations. Fed Chair JEROME POWELL will testify before the Senate Banking Committee at 10 a.m.

2024 WATCH

RALLYING CRY — “Never Trumpers rally in D.C., trying to find hope and a plan amid despair,” by Ally Mutnick: “The two-day confab at the luxury Conrad Hotel, billed as the Principles First Summit, was implicitly constructed as a counterweight to the MAGA-fied Conservative Political Action Conference. But the programming also served to underscore the often-bleak, occasionally hopeless, existence that comes with being a modern day anti-Trump Republican.”

THE LAST STRAW — “Vivek Ramaswamy says he received an offer to buy his way into the CPAC straw poll,” by Meridith McGraw

ALL POLITICS

FRAUD FILES — “Interstate voter list org starts to crack as Florida, other GOP states quit,” by Zach Montellaro and Gary Fineout : “A behind-the-scenes organization that helps states maintain their voter lists is beginning to lose members, with three Republican-led states — most notably Florida — announcing that they were departing the organization on Monday. The secretaries of state of Florida, West Virginia and Missouri all said that they were pulling out of the Electronic Registration Information Center, often known as ERIC.”

PALOUSE CHANGE — “The MAGA-fication of North Idaho College,” by NYT’s Charles Homans in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho: “For most of the past two years, the college’s governing board has been a volatile experiment in turning grievances into governance.”

THE WHITE HOUSE

JUST POSTED — Top Biden aide and one of the very first members of the 2020 campaign, REMI YAMAMOTO, will depart the White House in the next few days, Phil Mattingly reports for CNN. Yamamoto’s role and portfolio “placed her as the point person for not just former White House chief of staff Ron Klain, but Biden’s entire six-person senior team,” creating a one-woman power center in the West Wing.

In a rare statement on a personnel departure, Biden called her “unflinchingly loyal and extraordinarily capable,” and the story is just chock full of quotes from Biden’s inner circle. One thing missing from the CNN write-up: Yamamoto’s reputation among aides for being one of the best dressed in the White House. No word yet on where she’s headed next.

INTO THE WEST — “Biden to embark on West Coast fundraising swing before expected election launch,” by Chris Cadelago: “Biden’s trip west will take him to Rancho Santa Fe, a wealthy enclave of sprawling estates north of San Diego, two of the people told POLITICO. He also will have likely stops in Los Angeles and Las Vegas, Nev. The trip is planned for Monday and Tuesday, though the two people stressed Biden’s itinerary is still being finalized and specifics remain fluid.”

UNEXCUSED ABSENCE — “Biden said he would go to Ohio train derailment site. There is no trip currently scheduled,” by NBC’s Peter Nicholas, Kristen Welker and Monica Alba: “Ask the White House if Biden is going and the answer gets fuzzy: ‘When or if the president should go is of course a question we would talk about, but I don't think this is something we've been agonizing over in real-time,’ a senior White House official said.”

ON THE CLOCK — “White House Said to Consider Pushing Congress on Dealing With TikTok,” by NYT’s David McCabe: “White House officials are weighing whether to support legislation being developed by Senator MARK WARNER, Democrat of Virginia, that would give the government more authority to police apps and services that could pose a risk to Americans’ data security or be used in foreign influence campaigns.”

FLOTUS FILES — “Jill Biden opens up on Africa trip, being first lady, her marriage to the president and a possible 2024 reelection run,” by CNN’s Arlette Saenz and Elizabeth Stuart

CONGRESS

HAPPENING TODAY — “Fed's Powell faces Wall Street firing line on Capitol Hill,” by Zachary Warmbrodt

THE TALENTED MR. SANTOS — “New York Republicans go to all-out war against Santos,” by Olivia Beavers: “Six of Santos’ New York colleagues, particularly the four who flipped tight battleground districts last fall, are working — out in the open and behind the scenes — to contain the blowback from the embattled lawmaker’s deceptions about his past. The first-term foursome started by breaking from the vast majority of their party by calling for Santos to resign, a move that would hurt the GOP’s already tiny majority. And the newly elected New York Republicans are only growing louder.”

YIKES — “Rosendale poses for photo op with white nationalists, denies meeting, condemns hate groups,” by the Daily Montanan’s Darrell Ehrlick: “Congressman MATT ROSENDALE, a Republican who represents a wide swath of Montana, is coming under fire for posing for a photo with a group of white nationalists, who claim they met with him recently while visiting the Capitol in Washington D.C. Rosendale’s office denies the meeting, and explains that the group simply asked for their photo with him outside the Capitol and he obliged.”

ON THE AGENDA — “Republicans issue subpoenas to former school board officials,” by AP’s Farnoush Amiri: House Judiciary Chair JIM JORDAN (R-Ohio) “demanded documents and testimony from three individuals, including the former heads of the National School Boards Association, for ‘requesting federal law enforcement assistance to target parents voicing concerns at local school board meetings.’”

TRUMP CARDS

WHO’S TALKING — “Hope Hicks Meets With Manhattan Prosecutors as Trump Inquiry Intensifies,” by NYT’s Kate Christobek, Ben Protess, Jonah Bromwich and William Rashbaum: “HOPE HICKS, a trusted aide to Donald J. Trump during his 2016 presidential campaign, met with the Manhattan district attorney’s office on Monday — the latest in a string of witnesses to be questioned by prosecutors as they investigate the former president’s involvement in paying hush money to a porn star.”

POLICY CORNER

IMMIGRATION FILES — “U.S. Is Said to Consider Reinstating Detention of Migrant Families,” by NYT’s Eileen Sullivan and Zolan Kanno-Youngs: “The Biden administration is considering reviving the practice of detaining migrant families who cross the border illegally — the same policy the president shut down over the past two years because he wanted a more humane immigration system, officials familiar with the discussions said Monday.”

SURVEY SAYS — “Plunge in border crossings could blunt GOP attack on Biden,” by AP’s Elliot Spagat: “A new poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research shows some support for changing the number of immigrants and asylum-seekers allowed into the country. About 4 in 10 U.S. adults say the level of immigration and asylum-seekers should be lowered, while about 2 in 10 say they should be higher, according to the poll. About a third want the numbers to remain the same.”

“U.S. transfers Border Patrol agents to northern border as migrant crossings from Canada into U.S. rise,” by NBC’s Julia Ainsley and Didi Martinez

FEATHER REPORT — “U.S. Considers Vaccinating Chickens as Bird Flu Kills Millions of Them,” by NYT’s Sheryl Gay Stolberg and Emily Anthes: “The bird flu outbreak, which began early last year, is the biggest in the nation’s history, affecting more than 58 million farmed birds in 47 states, as well as birds in the wild. … Experts at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, whose focus is human health, say the risk of a pandemic is low.”

MEDIAWATCH

WHEN BELIEVING ISN’T SEEING — “Tucker Carlson, with help from Kevin McCarthy, tries to sanitize the very real violence of the January 6 attack,” by CNN’s Oliver Darcy: “After continuing to sow doubt about the legitimacy of the 2020 presidential election (“it is clear the 2020 election was a grave betrayal of American democracy”), Tucker Carlson used the footage on Monday night to portray those who broke into the U.S. Capitol as mostly peaceful patriots who simply felt wronged by the system.”
