White House altered record of Biden’s ‘garbage’ remarks despite stenographer concerns: AP sources | AP News
Biden, according to a transcript prepared by the official White House stenographers, told the Latino group on a Tuesday evening video call, “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters — his — his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American.”
The transcript released by the White House press office, however, rendered the quote with an apostrophe, reading “supporter’s” rather than “supporters,” which aides said pointed to Biden criticizing Hinchcliffe, not the millions of Americans who are supporting Trump for president.
The change was made after the press office “conferred with the president,” according to an internal email from the head of the stenographers’ office that was obtained by The AP. The authenticity of the email was confirmed by two government officials who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal matters.
The supervisor, in the email, called the press office’s handling of the matter “a breach of protocol and spoliation of transcript integrity between the Stenography and Press Offices.”
“If there is a difference in interpretation, the Press Office may choose to withhold the transcript but cannot edit it independently,” the supervisor wrote, adding, “Our Stenography Office transcript — released to our distro, which includes the National Archives — is now different than the version edited and released to the public by Press Office staff.”

No, Vote Spikes on Election Night Do Not Indicate Voter Fraud - The New York Times
The false claim
Vote totals appear to suddenly surge on election night, sometimes benefiting just one candidate. Some people on social media have falsely claimed that this proves fraudulent votes were counted.
Why it is false
Sudden increases in vote totals are a normal part of how election results are reported to the public on election night.
All real-time election feeds, including those used by The New York Times, rely on unofficial data that companies or news organizations collect from precincts, counties or states. Those sources often update slowly, as votes are counted and reported. But sometimes, election officials release a larger tally of votes all at once, like when a large batch of early or mail-in ballots are reported.

Father Drone Dork Will
Greetings Podfather. Have some sad news and just some advice to hopefully pass on to our fellow producers. Also just need to do anything to feel different right now, and NoAgenda is a safe space for me. My father, William Nelson Chambers III, passed away last Saturday. I share the same name but am the IV. He served the United States Air Force during Vietnam as security patrol for our planes stationed in Vietnam. We can all thank him for his service. He had a stroke a few years back and never full recovered and became very bitter and honestly just not my Dad that I remember. The last time I saw him he told me to leave his house because I voted for Trump. I even tried to explain why, no new wars and anti war (at the time). He spouted off the common talking points we hear from cnn and msnbc about Trump hating veterans. I don’t want the same thing that happened to my dad and gave him severe ptsd that I grew up around. He was just not the same person and clearly propagandized. I hold none of this against him and I know he loved me and was so proud of everything I do. I tried many times to contact him and never got a response. So please, listeners, producers, haters… everyone don’t let petty shit go to the grave and try your hardest to look past the political divide. I’m praying for my father and know he’s found peace. None of the political bullcrap means anything, family is family.
Forgiveness is Freedom

JD Vance Ground Water BOTG
Adam,
ITM,
Vance asked if you can clean the groundwater.
The answer is definitely! The more you clean it, the higher the cost. EPA usually oversees such efforts.
Groundwater remediation was/is done at Hanford to remove cold war radiated and toxic seepage. I assume that was very expensive and probably ongoing. There are ground water remediation sites where they have to clean up all kinds of things like mercery and other toxic or problematic things in the ground water. Often they are EPA Superfund Sites.
Some older petrochemical sites have some ground water seepage. They put extraction wells strategically to pump out contaminated water, run the water through a treatment system, usually including oil water separator equipment. Then strategically reinject the remediated water into the ground. I think the systems include test wells for sampling to verify the process is working correctly.
I assume the other remediation systems are similar with various types of equipment and processes to remover whatever they don't want in the ground water. Engineering dictates how many wells of what size and where to locate them and the rest of the system.
Joe Biden Bites Babies at Halloween Event - Newsweek
While Jill Biden, wearing a full-body panda suit, handed out copies of the children's book 10 Spooky Pumpkins, President Biden greeted a line of children and parents and distributed candy in signature White House wrappers.
Photographers and videographers captured moments of Biden bending down to interact with the children, including playfully biting the leg of a baby dressed as a turkey.
The president also put the toe of a child in an ice cream cone costume in his mouth and nibbled at a third baby wearing a blue dress.
Newsweek has contacted the White House via email for comment.
