This afternoon TBS's Samantha Bee hosted her special edition of Full Frontal — Not the White House Correspondents' Dinner. She roasted CNN and Fox News as well as presidents Woodrow Wilson, Ronald Reagan, Richard Nixon and George W. Bush — played by Will Ferrell who Bush recently praised for his SNL impressions on him. But of course, Donald Trump got the most of the roasts.

The last act imagined a world in which Hillary Clinton was president.

President Trump wanted to celebrate his 100th day in office with an image of the 2016 electoral map displayed on the front page of the Washington Post. "He encouraged me to take it home to my colleagues at the Washington Post and try to run it on the front page of our newspaper," said WaPo's Washington Correspondent Philip Rucker during a MSNBC interview Friday.

Why it matters: It has been five months since the election and 100 days since Trump was sworn in as president, yet he continues to have a bizarre, never-ending obsession with how many electoral votes he received — with copies of the electoral map ready to present to anyone who will listen.

Trump in 2012: "The electoral college is a disaster for a democracy." And then in 2016:

The Electoral College is actually genius.

The legendary Mark Knoller of CBS News started keeping a few logs during the third year of President Clinton. Knoller's meticulous records grew to more and more aspects of presidential activity under Bush 43 and Obama. From the CBS booth in the White House briefing room, Knoller tells me his most often requested data points are presidential vacations, golf outings and news conferences.

Stats from the first 99 days, courtesy of Knoller:

Speeches and remarks: 145 (Teleprompters used at 28)News conferences: 9 (1 solo, 8 with foreign leaders)Interviews: 32 (of which Fox has gotten 9)Golf: 17 outingsMeetings with foreign leaders: 17Flights on Air Force One: 28Flights on Marine One (the white-topped chopper): 30

A court has delayed the reauthorization of the National Security Agency's practice of collecting Americans' emails that get caught in surveillance of foreigners, according to the NYT.

The old argument is that the because foreigners under surveillance for links to terrorism or espionage knew the email addresses or phone numbers of certain Americans, those Americans were viewed as suspicious.

What warranted the change: Internet companies that assisted in the monitoring sometimes packaged suspect communications and shared them as a unit, even if not all were relevant to the surveillance. Even though a court issued a rule in 2011 that would limit NSA employees' access to those bundles, employees were accessing the bundled communications in unauthorized ways and the NSA brought this bungle to the court's attention. The court has reportedly delayed the reauthorization of the program.

Privacy advocates will rejoice: They've long argued dragging Americans into this surveillance is more likely based on what is said in conversations than who has sent or received communications.

Elon Musk defended his interactions with the Trump administration on Friday, saying he has been able to use his position on two advisory councils to raise issues such as climate change and immigration.

"That wasn't on the agenda before," he said, speaking at the TED conference in Vancouver. "Maybe nothing will happen but at least the words were said."

Not a big deal: Musk said his role is limited to his participation on two advisory councils. "Theres a meeting every month or two," he said. "Thats the sum total of my contribution."

What else?: Musk used most of his appearance at TED to offer new details on his many projects, including traffic-avoiding tunnels, self-driving cars.

Jim DeMint, the president of the Heritage Foundation and former Tea Party firebrand senator from South Carolina, is on the rocks at the Heritage Foundation, according to Politico, which reports the organization plans to force him out.

The quote: An unnamed GOP operative told Politico there is "massive turmoil over there right now..."

What it means: Heritage, via its political arm, has leaned into primary battles against moderate Republicans under DeMint's leadership. Judging by the quotes in the Politico piece, Heritage board members and advisers are ready to dial it back.

President Trump delivered remarks at the National Rifle Association's annual meeting Friday — the first president to do so since Ronald Reagan in 1983.

Why now: Trump's speech is part of an effort to excite his supporters and convey a sense of accomplishment ahead of his 100-day mark tomorrow.

The irony: Guns are banned from the event.

Quotables:"We have news you've been waiting for: The eight-year assault on second amendment freedoms has come to a crashing end." Later added, "I will never, ever infringe on the right of the people to keep and bear arms.""We will work with you by your side, we will work with the NRA to promote responsible gun ownership, to protect our wonderful hunters and their access to the very beautiful outdoors... you have a true friend and champion in the White House."Georgia election: Trump started his address by stumping for Karen Handel, Republican candidate for the special congressional election in Georgia's sixth district. He reiterated that Dem. candidate Jon Ossoff is for open borders and "lots of crime."

Sean Spicer told Reuters' Jeff Mason Friday that he doesn't think Americans should be worried that Trump said the U.S. could be headed for a "major, major conflict" with North Korea:

"The president understands the threat... we're having tremendous success utilizing China to diplomatically use the pressure they have with Korea, both economically and politically, to our advantage. That's a result of the relationship President Trump built with President Xi."

An estimated 3,600 secret files about the assassination of JFK will be released to the public on Oct. 26 — unless President Trump decides to keep them sealed.

The JFK Act of 1992 sealed all federal documents related to Kennedy's death after Oliver Stone's movie JFK sparked public interest.

Under the law, all the documents are to be released in full on the 25th anniversary of when it was enacted unless the President believes doing so causes more harm than good.

Trump and JFK conspiracies: During the election, Trump promoted a National Enquirer article that linked Ted Cruz's father to Lee Harvey Oswald based on a 1963 photo, despite no evidence to support his claim.

As word spread on Wednesday that President Trump planned to unilaterally withdraw the United States from NAFTA, it took calls from the leaders of Canada and Mexico to convince him that "they're serious," leading Trump to decide to "negotiate rather than terminate," per an interview with the WSJ.

Why it matters: Trump's willingness to go it alone — at least until he faced an onslaught both internationally and domestically — suggests just how much the administration wants a signature Trumpian move to mark its 100th day.

From all sides: The calls also came from top business executives, as one top lobbyist urged CEOs to "call the highest-ranking administration officials [you] can reach."

Trump's key quote: "Hey, I'm a nationalist and a globalist. I'm both. And I'm the only one who makes the decision, believe me."

In an attempt to cultivate more coherence among the Trump administration's foreign policy, State Department officials are asking U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley's aides to let the White House review any of her public remarks before speaking, according to an email obtained by the New York Times.

Between the lines: Haley has often been one of the leading members of the Trump administration to speak out on key foreign policy issues, from Trump's controversial travel ban to the missile strikes in Syria, and her comments don't always align with the core principles of the administration. Meanwhile, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson — the preferred voice on foreign affairs — has largely remained in the shadows.

Good morning, Day 99! A save-that-tape moment during a Reuters interview with President Trump reminds us: For all the century's worth of news we have had under President Trump, there has yet to be a massive, transcendent crisis — foreign or domestic — to test him, his team and this divided nation.

For the past 20 years, Cisco Chairman John Chambers and Kleiner Perkins Chairman John Doerr have been bringing tech execs to Washington to meet with government officials about the issues Silicon Valley cares about, like corporate tax reform, high-skilled immigration and science education.

The biggest game-changer over the past two decades? Trump.

Between the lines: Despite the tech industry's overall skeptical view of Trump, two longtime Silicon Valley leaders see positive momentum for driving pro-business policies that will spur startup investment and, most of all, jobs.
