State Bill Gardner yesterday before singing papers in Concord to be on the nation’s earliest presidential primary ballot. (AP Photo/Jim Cole) THE BIG IDEA: — Losing some steam in both national and early state polls, Bernie Sanders has gone after Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton a little harder every day this week. Yesterday, he made clear that he will not go quietly and plans to really take the gloves off.  After filing his paperwork to appear on the New Hampshire primary ballot as a Democrat, someone yelled: “You ready to kick some Republican butt, Bernie?” Sanders yelled back, “There’s some earlier butt we have to deal with.” The Post’s John Wagner reports from Concord that the remark prompted some nervous laughter in a room packed with reporters and supporters, but it comes as Clinton’s camp has increasingly tried to suggest that the senator and his team have been treating her in a sexist fashion. Speaking to the Boston Globe editorial board yesterday, Sanders declared: “I disagree with Hillary Clinton on virtually everything.” He specifically hit her for the flip-flop on trade and her delay in coming out against the Keystone XL Pipeline: “How many years do you have to think about whether or not we excavate and transport the dirtiest fuel in the world?” he said, per Annie Linskey. “It didn’t take me too long to think about that.” In a Wall Street Journal interview the day before, Sanders said the FBI should fully investigate his rival’s use of a private e-mail server. Though he declared “enough about your damn e-mails” during the last debate, the Vermont senator complained to reporter Peter Nicholas: “You get 12 seconds to say these things. There’s an investigation going on right now. I did not say, ‘End the investigation.’ That’s silly. … Let the investigation proceed unimpeded.” Sanders will spend this weekend in two states where he’s struggled to appeal to minority voters. First, in South Carolina, he’ll address African-Americans. Then, in Nevada, he will try to improve outreach to Latinos and show he can build an organization that can compete with Clinton’s. Unlike Iowa and New Hampshire, the democratic socialist has trailed far behind in polls of the third and fourth states to vote in the nominating process. Looking ahead, the AP reports this morning that “Sanders’ campaign is considering a speech, possibly in New York, to provide more details on his economic policies, including how he would seek to structure tax rates to pay for his domestic policy agenda and seek to regulate Wall Street. Other topics he plans to address are how he would serve as commander-in-chief and a domestic policy agenda that will include proposals on family and medical leave, a Medicare-for-all health care system and an expansion of Social Security benefits.” Bernie Sanders at a rally yesterday after filing paperwork to get on the New Hampshire primary ballot in Concord.

Terrill, File) — Chris Christie and Mike Huckabee have been kicked off the main stage for next Tuesday’s GOP debate sponsored by Fox Business and the Wall Street Journal; Lindsey Graham and George Pataki are not even being allowed into the undercard. David Weigel: “Thirteen Republican presidential campaigns had started the week in a kind of solidarity, brainstorming ideas to make the cable news debates more fair. They ended the week in pathos and disarray, after Fox Business announced that two candidates would be shunted from prime time to an ‘undercard’ debate, and two mainstays of the undercard debate would not make it to the Nov. 10 forum at all.” How they are reacting: Lindsey Graham: “It is ironic that the only veteran in the race is going to be denied a voice the day before Veterans Day,” said campaign manager Christian Ferry. “In the end, the biggest loser is the American people and the Republican Presidential primary process that has been hijacked by news outlets.” @JebBush said that Graham should be allowed in the debate: “His foreign policy message is an important one in particular.”  Christie defiantly tweeted #BringItOn. “It doesn’t matter the stage, give me a podium and I’ll be there to talk about real issues like this,” he wrote, linking to a Facebook video of him talking about addiction. Mike Huckabee: “I’m happy to debate anyone, anywhere, anytime. We are months away from actual votes being cast and neither the pundits nor the press will decide this election, the people will. Washington is stealing from seniors, punching American workers in the gut, and bankrupting our kids and grandkids. I refuse to let that stand.” Douglas Hughes speaks to reporters in May after appearing in federal court. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin, File) — The Florida mailman who flew a gyrocopter around restricted airspace before landing it in front of the Capitol will plead guilty to a felony that could carry three years in prison. Prosecutors had charged Douglas Hughes with enough crimes that he could have spent nine-and-a-half years behind bars for his protest against the corrosive power of money in politics. His attorney told the AP that they’ll enter the plea deal on Nov. 20 in federal court in Washington. Ran Baratz at Hebrew University in Jerusalem in 2013 (Reuters/Olivier Fitoussi) — Bibi picks a vehemently anti-Obama professor as his lead spokesman. Benjamin Netanyahu, who is coming to Washington to meet with Barack Obama on Monday and to ask Congress for billions of dollars in U.S. military aid, appointed a new media adviser who has called the president an anti-Semite and said that Secretary of State John Kerry has the intelligence of a 12-year-old. The Post’s William Booth reports from Jerusalem: “Unless he is fired before he is officially hired, which Netanyahu hinted is adistinct possibility, Baratz will serve as the prime minister’s ­media adviser and director of public diplomacy, a position far more central and intimate than mere spokesman: The person is tasked with shaping and selling Netanyahu’s policies at home and abroad.” It’s especially bad timing since the point of his visit next week is to shore up liberal support for Israel. He’s even going to speak at the Center for American Progress, and advisers have said he plans to emphasize how accepting his country is of gays as part of the charm offensive. Obama yesterday acknowledged that brokering a peace deal between Israel and Palestine won’t happen during his presidency, but he said he will continue to pressure Netanyahu to keep open the possibility of a two-state solution, per Steven Mufson. Ted Cruz looks over at rival candidate Marco Rubio after Pope Francis’ address before a joint meeting of Congress on Sept. 24. (Reuters Photo/James Lawler Duggan) — Ted Cruz calls Marco Rubio a moderate and says the Republican primaries will come down to a two-way race between a conservative and a moderate: “Historically, there have been two major lanes in the Republican primary,” the Texas senator told CNN’s Jake Tapper last night. “There’s been a moderate lane and a conservative lane. And, in past cycles, there’s been a consensus moderate choice early on…Look, I think Marco is certainly formidable in that lane. I think the Jeb campaign seems to view Marco as his biggest threat in the moderate lane. And so I think they’re going to slug it out for a while. But, when you look at the conservative lane, what I’m really encouraged by is that conservatives are consolidating behind our campaign… And once it gets down to a head-to-head contest between a conservative and a moderate…I think the conservative wins.” Donald Trump signs copies of his new book, “Crippled America: How to Make America Great Again,” at Trump Tower. (AFP Photo/Kena Betancur) — Donald Trump stumbled again on national security questions last night, possibly confusing the B-3 bomber and the F-35. Hugh Hewitt asked The Donald if he could name anyone who would be on his defense team yet. Trump didn’t answer directly, but he congratulated himself for identifying Osama bin Laden as a threat in a book he wrote in 2000. “Well, no, but I’ve been really, you know, I’ve been pretty good in terms of that stuff. If you look at my book, in the year 2000, I said Osama bin Laden … And that was before I had aspirations politically, believe me, long before,” he told Hewitt. The conservative radio host also asked what Trump thought of the massive contract won by Northrop Grumman to produce the B-3 bomber. Trump answered by referring instead to the F-35 strike fighter, saying some pilots like the old plane better than the proposed new one. Listen to the interview here.

(AP Photo/Charlie Neibergall) WAPO HIGHLIGHTS: George H. W. Bush on July 30 (Office of George H. W. Bush via AP) — “Father’s recollections open breach among Bushes,” by Ed O’Keefe and Dan Balz: “For as long as they have been in the public eye, members of the Bush family have been known for fierce loyalty, protective of one another in the face of attacks from the outside. Rarely have they engaged in a public quarrel among themselves — until revelations this week from a forthcoming biography of former president George H.W. Bush. In the book, written by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jon Meacham, the 41st president makes clear his displeasure with two of the leading figures in the administration of his son, former president George W. Bush — and both the 43rd president and his brother, who would like to be the 45th, were forced rather awkwardly to take sides.” Here’s a round-up of the most significant reactions: Donald Rumsfeld: “Bush 41 is getting up in years and misjudges Bush 43, who I found made his own decisions.” George W. Bush: “I am proud to have served with Dick Cheney and Don Rumsfeld. Dick Cheney did a superb job as vice president and I was fortunate to have him by my side throughout my presidency. Don Rumsfeld ably led the Pentagon and was an effective secretary of defense.” Jeb Bush: “My brother is a big boy. His administration was shaped by his thinking, his reaction to the attack on 9/11 I think my dad, like a lot of people that love George, want to try to create — a different narrative perhaps . . . just ’cause that’s natural to do, right? But George would say…, ‘This is under my watch, I was commander in chief. I was the leader. And I accept personal responsibility for what happened, both the good and the bad.’ And I think that’s the right way to look at it.” Dick Cheney: “I took [being called iron-ass] it as a mark of pride. He said ‘I was aggressive in defending, in carrying out what I thought were the right policies’ in response to 9/11.” Mark McKinnon: “The lion in winter still has claws.” — “Obama’s far-reaching trade deal would lower tariffs on meat, cars and dairy,” by David Nakamura: “President Obama proclaimed that the Pacific Rim free trade pact is the ‘highest-standard trade agreement in history,’ but opponents seized on specific provisions to argue that the final deal does not live up to promises. … The agreement calls for a phase out of subsidies some governments now give operators in fisheries that are either overfished or overcapacity, as well as an end to subsidies for vessels engaged in illegal fishing. The parties to the treaty account for a quarter of the global seafood trade, and countries such as Japan have traditionally helped offset the cost of fishing for their domestic industry. The Sierra Club blasted the environmental chapter, calling it ‘rife with polluter giveaways that would undermine decades of environmental progress, threaten our climate and fail to adequately protect wildlife because big polluters helped write the deal.’” THE WORLD IS A DARK PLACE, illustrated by four stories: — A Philadelphia woman got life in prison for locking mentally disabled people in a “dungeon” so that she could collect their disability benefits. “The victims, prosecutors said, lived in the dark and in isolation, and were fed food laced with drugs to keep them sedated; they were brutally punished if they tried to escape,” per Elahe Izadi, who has more on this act of pure evil. — Gang members in the South Side of Chicago lured a 9-year-old boy into an alley and executed him in order to punish his father, who is a member of a rival gang, police believe. The Chicago Tribune reports that Tyshawn Lee, a fourth-grader at Joplin Elementary School, was walking to his grandmother’s house when it happened. He was shot repeatedly, and a basketball he always carried with him was found nearby. — The University of California-Merced student who stabbed four classmates on Wednesday planned on killing a police officer and then using his gun to kill two others, according to the local sheriff. He was angry over being kicked out of a study group, according to a manifesto found on the perp’s body. Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke said this is not terrorism, just a step above a high school grudge, but that “the suspect did praise Allah in his writings,” according to the San Francisco ABC affiliate. The sheriff also said that a bomb squad recovered Mohammad’s backpack, which contained hand-cuffs, night vision scope, duct tape and petroleum jelly, which the sheriff described as s a “poor man’s C-4.” — After police killed a six-year-old autistic boy in Louisiana, the superintendent of the Louisiana State Police said there’s no evidence that the father who led marshals on a chase ending in a hail of gunfire from officers had a weapon in his vehicle or that anyone besides law enforcement shot weapons during the encounter, according to The Advocate of Baton Rouge. SOCIAL MEDIA SPEED READ, Curated by Elise Viebeck (@eliseviebeck) — ZIGNAL VISUAL: Ben Carson is getting a good taste of the scrutiny that comes with being a frontrunner: Many of the stories that the retired neurosurgeon has told about his upbringing in the past are now being called into question. A story about hitting a classmate in the head and his narrative about trying to stab an acquaintance — which has changed several times in his own telling — could not be corroborated by any of the nine friends and witnesses who were contacted by CNN reporters. He’s getting criticized for comments about falling asleep at the wheel numerous times while driving over the years. His theory that the Egyptian pyramids were built to store grain was mocked yesterday by Rand Paul, who quipped that his theory is that aliens built the pyramids. He’s been saying out-there stuff for months, but it’s gotten less attention. Recall his recent statement that the Holocaust could have been prevented if Jewish civilians had guns. Our analytics partners at Zignal Labs visualize the degree to which Carson has finally come under the klieg lights. Look at how press coverage of Carson has spiked over the last week. Mentions of Carson increased five-fold on Thursday over his daily average at the beginning of last week: This GIF shows how Carson has occupied an increasingly large share of the Republican chatter and coverage over each of the last seven days, going from 9 percent a week ago to 31 percent now (That means one in three mentions of the GOP presidential candidates is about Carson): The pyramid gaffe dominated yesterday’s social media mentions of Carson. One-third of the above Carson mentions also mentioned Egypt! The news has even broken through in Egypt! Since Tuesday, Zignal has tracked more than 120,000 Geo-coded Tweets about Ben Carson. About 150 of those came from Egypt. That’s more mentions than any other candidate, including Trump. –Pictures of the day: Ahead of Trump’s appearance on SNL tomorrow night, here’s a flashback to when he hosted in 2004: (nbcsnl) That’s Hillary Clinton at her Dolly Parton-themed birthday party in 1995: (hillaryclinton) Check out the crowds that showed up for Bernie Sanders as he filed for the New Hampshire ballot: (@kailanikm) –Tweets of the day: (@David_Cameron) Speaker Paul Ryan congratulated the House on its progress this week: (@SpeakerRyan) Ohio Republican Sen.

The state has grown increasingly red during the Obama era. Mitt Romney romped to a victory there in 2012. And Tom Cotton last year unseated a scion of a powerful Democratic family, strengthening the GOP hold in the state. Then there’s John Boozman. The 64-year-old Republican, facing re-election to a second term next year, has prompted growing concern from party elders who fear he risks a repeat of past election debacles — where GOP candidates in Indiana, South Dakota, Kansas and Mississippi ran shoddy campaigns, forcing a last-ditch rescue attempt by the party establishment to try to save an endangered seat. Mitch McConnell has recently had a serious conversation with Boozman about the state of his campaign, sources said, and plans to headline fundraisers for the Arkansas Republican to help fill his coffers.” The NRSC reportedly told him that they’re not going to spend a dime on his race. Polls show him in trouble. And the Democrats have fielded a good candidate who is running an aggressive campaign.  Sen. John Boozman, R-Ark., off the Senate floor last year (AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite, File) — New York Times, “U.S. to share criminal records with Native American police,” by Erich Lichtblau: “The Justice Department moved to fix what it described as ‘an information gap’ that has allowed offenders living on Native American reservations to buy guns illegally and for years has blocked tribal police from access to important criminal records. The flaws in the system were on stark display last year after a 14-year-old boy from a reservation in Washington State used his father’s handgun to kill four classmates and himself. Investigators determined that a prior restraining order against the father should have prohibited him from buying the gun, but the order was never entered in the federal database. In an announcement timed with the Tribal Nations Conference at the White House, the Justice Department named 10 Native American tribes around the country to share criminal and civil records with the federal government through a trial program expected to cost about $1 million. Officials hope to expand the program to other tribes. — New York Times, “Ben Carson appeals to black voters, but his campaign doesn’t yet,” by Jonathan Martin: ”Carson has already been to Ferguson, Mo., and Baltimore this year — sites of unrest after the police-related deaths of African-Americans — as well as other black hubs such as Harlem. On Friday, his campaign will begin airing a rap-infused ad on black-oriented radio stations in several cities, and he will visit a youth center in Florida and speak to a black Republican club in the state. Later in the month, he is scheduled to attend a forum on criminal justice at the historically black Benedict College, in Columbia, S.C. Yet if Carson’s potential for bringing black voters into the Republican primary illustrates a unique possibility, his efforts to win them over highlight his limitations as a candidate. Though he raised over $20 million during the third quarter of this year and primary votes will be cast in less than three months, his campaign operation has not caught up to his standing in the race. He has, for example, yet to hire a staff member dedicated to turning out black voters.” HOT ON THE LEFT Bernie Sanders: Climate change is a ‘major planetary crisis.’ From Think Progress: “Sanders told reporters that President Obama should reject the Keystone XL pipeline before the United Nations’ conference on climate change starts at the end of the month. ‘It’s imperative that we not just talk the talk but walk the walk, that the United States lead the world in combating climate change,’ Sanders said.” HOT ON THE RIGHT Bill O’Reilly slanders Ronald Reagan. From George F. Will in The Washington Post: “Because of its vast readership, ‘Killing Reagan: The Violent Assault That Changed a Presidency’ by Fox News’s Bill O’Reilly and his collaborator, Martin Dugard, will distort public understanding of Reagan’s presidency more than hostile but conscientious scholars could … The book’s perfunctory pieties about Reagan’s greatness are inundated by its flood of regurgitated slanders about his supposed lassitude and manipulability.” DAYBOOK: –What’s happening today on the campaign trail: The South Carolina Democratic Party and Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.) host a forum for Democratic presidential candidates at Winthrop University in Rock Hill, S.C., while Rand Paul campaigns in Spartanburg, S.C.

At least Sunday promises sunny autumnal glory. We have something to look forward to, although it is a bit of a roller coaster weekend, one could argue. Slightly warmer conditions are possible as we start the workweek.” Washington Nationals manager Dusty Baker poses at the park yesterday (Photo by John McDonnell/The Washington Post) — New Nationals manager Dusty Baker made a really good first impression on our sports reporters who went to see him yesterday. “Baker’s hopes for getting the Nationals back into the playoffs, after a disappointing season that cost Matt Williams his job, relies on a philosophy he developed talking to Bill Russell and Bill Walsh,” James Wagner reports. “Both told him a team has to be close, from the janitor to the administrative assistants to the owners to the players. After a season that included a dugout fight between Bryce Harper and Jonathan Papelbon, and fractured relationships between the clubhouse and manager’s office, Baker’s style could be needed.” Paul J.
