🇺🇸 Ilhan Omar’s husband was seen at their DC home the day after federal agents raided it in an immigration fraud probe. Tim Mynett was filmed walking the dog and entering the house Tuesday. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro is now looking at the disclosures. The raid itself was over childhood immigration paperwork, but the numbers on his businesses moved that hard right as the scrutiny got louder. No charges have been filed, and the investigation remains open, but the timing is brutal. One year the companies look like they’re worth millions, the next they’re worth nothing, and nobody outside the filings has a clear picture of where the money actually went.

🇺🇸 🇾🇪 🇹🇷 Trump says the Houthis are "behaving very badly" and hints they'll pay after the midterms as Taiz is about to fall. He also told reporters he might ask Erdogan to join the response, calling him a great friend who'll do whatever he asks, and a US strike on the Houthis now looks closer than ever: "I find any sort of military campaign against the Houthis highly probable and likely to involve the Americans." The Houthis have three weeks until November 3, and every mile they take before then raises the price of pushing them back. @WeTheBrandon

🇸🇦🇾🇪 Houthis reportedly hit Aramco’s headquarters after Riyadh bombed their oil facility in Sanaa The Houthis had warned the kingdom that hitting their oil facility would put Aramco’s Dhahran headquarters on the target list, and the Saudis reportedly struck anyway. Ian Bremmer of Eurasia Group says the days of quietly paying off the Houthis are over, since MBS can’t look this weak with his main airport shut and Aramco taking direct hits: “This war almost certainly gets worse before it gets better.” Trump is playing go-between with Ankara, whose drones and strike jets could join the fight, while Saudi checks could pull Pakistan in... the first real test of a Muslim NATO built without Washington at the center. @ianbremmer

🇺🇸 These Delaware teens took ding-dong ditch to the next level. They showed up at people's doors around 11pm wearing hockey masks and tactical vests, carrying a gel bead gun that looked like a real rifle. Neighbors were panicking thinking they were getting robbed. Now the 16 and 17-year-old are facing charges. Bold strategy, kids. Writer: Daniyal t.co/GqiMwlAY9u

🇻🇦🇺🇸 Pope Leo XIV has lung cancer, and surgeons just removed part of his right lung The Vatican confirmed Tuesday that the "small, localized nodule" the 71-year-old American pope disclosed on Sunday turned out to be adenocarcinoma, the most common form of lung cancer. Doctors at Rome's Gemelli Hospital took out the lower lobe of his right lung in a 90-minute operation they called successful and free of complications. Leo walked into the hospital on his own, waved to the crowd outside, and has no known history of health problems. He has about a week in the hospital ahead of him and a major South America trip scheduled for early November. Catching it early is good news, but anything requiring his signature now waits, and the Vatican has no rulebook for a pope who can't work. Source: Associated Press / Writer: Daniel

🇺🇸 Robert Kelker-Kelly has died of cardiac arrest at 62. The “Days of Our Lives” star was on his way home from the airport when he felt pain in his chest, neck and left arm. He decided not to go to the hospital and went to bed instead. Not long after, his wife found him not breathing. He had no known health problems. It’s a heartbreaking reminder that chest, neck and arm pain can be a sign something’s seriously wrong with your heart, and it’s always worth getting checked right away.

🚨🇺🇸🇸🇦 FBI arrested a Saudi OpenAI engineer for allegedly PLANTING A HIDDEN MIC in an executive conference room, and OpenAI used its own AI to catch him. Abdulrahman Alfozan, 35, allegedly hid a recorder behind a TV. OpenAI identified and fired him before handing the case to the FBI. The device was stuffed in a USB port and wrapped in toilet paper. Kash Patel called it a direct threat to American super-intelligence work. The interesting part is that OpenAI’s own AI helped expose an insider allegedly spying on the company. That’s the kind of loop the whole industry is built on now, and it’s also the kind of risk that keeps getting harder to police. Source: FBI / Writer: Lucas

🚨🇺🇲 SEXUAL ASSAULT CLAIMS against “looksmaxxing” influencer CLAVICULAR have been DROPPED from his Florida civil lawsuit.

🇾🇪🇸🇦 Yemen has endured more than a DECADE of devastating war, and one Yemeni journalist is furious about how little attention the country has received. Hussain Al-Bukhaiti claims Saudi Arabia carried out more than 300,000 airstrikes on Yemen since 2015 and that the blockade killed 500,000 Yemeni civilians. His accusation against Western media is brutal: “They make it look like the war started 2 months ago.” Yemen's humanitarian catastrophe has been unfolding for YEARS, with civilians paying an enormous price. An entire generation has grown up surrounded by war, hunger, and destruction. Writer: Sol t.co/nh6DPe8m3R

🇺🇸 Wall Street's bull market just turned FOUR YEARS OLD, and investors are starting to wonder how much longer the party can last. With BILLIONS pouring into AI and tech stocks already riding massive gains, the big question is whether companies can actually deliver the profits needed to justify all that spending. Some people believe AI could keep the rally going for YEARS. They're betting on the infrastructure behind the AI boom, particularly memory chips and the companies building the technology that makes it all possible. The AI buildout is still in its early stages, and there's plenty of growth left beyond today's biggest tech winners. Writer: Sol t.co/z6PHg8SQgf

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump may not need another major attack on Iran to bring down the regime We had a fascinating disagreement with Will Chamberlain about whether America is actually winning its war against Iran. Will believes Washington has the upper hand, and that time is working against Tehran. His argument is that Iran's economy cannot survive indefinitely under sanctions and a naval blockade. Its currency is collapsing, its ability to trade is severely restricted, and he believes the regime will eventually be forced to make concessions or face collapse. He expects Trump to maintain that pressure after the midterms, regardless of the election results. But there's a serious problem with this calculation. Iran is still fighting. Its missiles are still threatening shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, and the economic consequences are increasingly being felt far beyond the Middle East. Will acknowledges that his original prediction of an Iranian collapse within six weeks was wrong. Yet he remains convinced that the regime's position is deteriorating faster than America's. We also discussed the possibility of U.S. intervention in Yemen, where he was surprisingly reluctant to support another American military commitment on Saudi Arabia's behalf. Will sees a blockade that is gradually breaking Iran. But there's also a strategy that depends on Iran breaking before the economic, military and political costs become too great for America itself. And nobody can confidently tell us which happens first. @WeTheBrandon @willchamberlain

👽 Forget the nuclear arms race. The U.S., China, and Russia could now be competing over who reveals ALIEN SECRETS first. Rep. Eric Burlison is warning that Washington could suffer a massive propaganda defeat if Beijing or Moscow beats Trump to the punch on UFO disclosure. Trump ordered federal agencies to identify and release UFO-related records back in February, but the really WILD claims are coming from elsewhere. UFO researcher Simon Holland alleges that Russia and China may have already received communications from an EXTRATERRESTRIAL CIVILIZATION and could be waiting for the perfect moment to reveal them. There's ZERO independently verified evidence supporting that claim, and neither government has confirmed any alien contact. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has been releasing historical UFO files, including a CIA report describing a mysterious disc-shaped object with rotating lights over an airport in Zimbabwe.

🇺🇸🇸🇴 Trump is demanding answers from Ilhan Omar over her finances, questioning how her reported net worth could reach $30 MILLION while she says it's closer to $100K He's now suggesting the higher figure could be connected to FRAUD in MINNESOTA and questioning where her properties and other assets came from. Gotta examine the discrepancy for sure! Particularly what her financial disclosures actually show. Writer: Oliver

🇬🇧🇮🇷 Britain's MI5 says it's now spending more resources countering foreign threats than it did during the Cold War. Russia is allegedly recruiting criminals for sabotage, while Iran is accused of expanding its operations from targeting dissidents and Jewish communities to military installations. More than 50 Iran-linked arrests have reportedly been made in Britain over the past year. But one warning from MI5 chief Ken McCallum really stood out. He says AI could eventually help terrorists develop biological weapons, while more advanced AI systems might become intelligent enough to outthink humans. Quite a lot to worry about for an intelligence agency already dealing with Russia, Iran, China and terrorism. Source: NBC News / Writer: Oliver

🇸🇦🇾🇪 The war in Yemen could become a fight for Saudi Arabia's survival I asked former CIA analyst Larry Johnson how much longer Mohammed bin Salman can withstand the Houthi campaign against Saudi Arabia. His answer was more alarming than I expected. Larry believes MBS could lose power before the end of the year. His argument isn't simply about missiles hitting oil facilities. It's about what happens when a leader has spent years concentrating nearly every important lever of power in his own hands. The Saudi royal family once distributed authority among different branches. MBS dismantled much of that arrangement, making himself indispensable but also creating a single point of failure. Now Saudi infrastructure is under sustained attack, air defenses are reportedly stretched thin, and Larry believes the damage to the kingdom's energy industry could take years to repair. He also expects the Houthis to eventually push into Saudi territory along the Yemeni border, although he doesn't foresee them marching on Riyadh. What interested me was his disagreement with reports that Iran might launch ground incursions into Gulf countries if America restarts the war. Larry considers that unlikely. He sees no evidence of the troop movements or logistical preparations such an operation would require. Instead, he believes Iran can inflict enormous damage with missiles alone. And that's the uncomfortable position Saudi Arabia finds itself in. A kingdom built around one increasingly isolated ruler is confronting an enemy that doesn't need to conquer the country to make governing it extraordinarily difficult. @NewSonof

🇺🇸 Hackers STOLE META'S SOURCE CODE Attackers used an employee's STOLEN CREDENTIALS to access private GitHub repositories, making off with software code and personal information affecting roughly 1,500 PEOPLE, mostly Meta employees in the United States. That sensitive personal data was stored in the repositories AGAINST META'S OWN COMPANY POLICY. Meta says 99% of the stolen material was business data, primarily software code, while the remaining 1% contained personal information. The company has shut down the unauthorized access, involved law enforcement, and is offering affected individuals credit and dark web monitoring. Source: securityweek / Writer: Sol

🇺🇸 Cornell has BANNED fraternity parties for the rest of the academic year following a former student's allegations of SEXUAL ASSAULT and drugging at a frat house. She's suing the university, the fraternity and 7 former members. The accused men who have responded deny the allegations, and none have been criminally charged. Cornell is now bringing in outside investigators and reviewing how it handles sexual assault cases. The woman's lawyer says the changes are welcome, but came too late to protect her. That's the heartbreaking part. It took a lawsuit and public outrage to get the university to seriously reconsider how it protects students. Source: NBC News / Writer: Oliver

🇮🇱🇯🇴 ISRAELI CRIMINAL GANGS are reportedly using BALLOONS to fly DRUGS into Jordan... !? Apparently drones weren't enough. According to The Telegraph, smugglers are sending crystal meth, hashish and amphetamines across the border, where drug prices have soared. Jordanian officials are also accusing Israel of highlighting weapons smuggled into Israel while largely ignoring the drugs coming the other way. The same criminal networks are reportedly involved in both trades. Quite a different picture of what's happening along that border. Writer: Oliver

🇮🇱🇺🇸🇮🇷 Netanyahu has been pushing Trump to hit Iran again before the elections. They’ve reportedly talked about it several times in the past 2 weeks, with Netanyahu warning that Iran is rebuilding its nuclear program. Trump’s reply, per one U.S. official: “Go ahead and get ready.” The White House says that’s false, pointing to Trump’s promise not to attack Iran before the midterms. Even his own team is split, with Hegseth pushing for strikes and most advisers preferring to keep squeezing Iran’s economy. And for Netanyahu, the timing is everything. Israelis vote on October 27, he’s trailing in the polls, and U.S. officials think he sees himself at his strongest when Israel is at war. Source: Axios / Writer: Daniyal

🇺🇸🚀 SpaceX wants to launch Starship up to 456 times a year from Texas. That’s a massive jump from the 25 launches it’s allowed right now. The plan comes in 2 steps, first up to 100 launches a year around the clock, then the full 456. It’s also asking for 912 landings, since both the booster and the ship could come back to Texas, and Starship is designed to be reused. The FAA will study the environmental impact and hold public meetings before signing off. And Elon is thinking even bigger, with plans for a Starship site in Louisiana worth up to $100 billion and a long-term goal of launching more than once an hour. It sounds wild today, but so did catching a rocket booster with giant metal arms. Source: TradingView / Writer: Daniyal
