On this episode of Ford News, Johnathan, and Brian start the discussion with Special Counsel Jack Smith filing a sealed brief in the D.C. District Court laying out the facts for the superseding indictment in the Trump election interference case. Why did he have to do this and what may be in this sealed document? 

In segment two, Johnathan puts his math hat on to talk about the different electoral paths to victory for Kamala Harris and the shrinking map for Donald Trump. 

The "Ford Fact Check" brings us to Pittsburgh and one of Brian's favorite establishments, Primanti Brothers, where the GOP is outraged over a bit of confusion that happened when VP candidate JD Vance went to visit the Steel City staple. 

We also want to send our thoughts and prayers to everyone impacted by Hurricane Helene. The aftermath of this historic storm has destroyed lives in Florida, Georgia, Tennessee and the Carolinas.
