🇮🇩 Brazilian woman caught smuggling  8 POUNDS of LIQUID COCAINE into Bali. Airport footage shows police inspecting her luggage and uncovering cocaine disguised as everyday personal-care products. Police said the 36-year-old told investigators she was promised $50,000 to deliver the drugs to someone on the island. If convicted, she could face life imprisonment or the death penalty under Indonesian law. No executions in years, but the country still threatens drug smugglers with the firing squad. Literally. Source: Globo / Writer: Marie t.co/jmTbjuC10y

🇺🇸🇺🇦🇷🇺 Witkoff carries a new Ukraine peace plan from Oslo to Putin in St. Petersburg tomorrow... and Zelensky just offered to stop hitting Russian refineries if Moscow stops hitting his grid The Oslo room held Zelensky, the leaders of Norway and Finland, the E4, the EU and NATO, and a US official says Kyiv "brought forward new ideas" and everyone left with "strong alignment at the working level." Kushner dialed in sick and, per one source, was "very direct" on the refinery strikes, which is the line Trump has repeated every day since the diesel deal. Then Zelensky gave him the answer: a refinery ceasefire for a grid ceasefire. That's the same offer Wicker begged Trump to take from Kyiv on Sunday, and it's now the thing Witkoff can put in front of Putin with Washington's name on it. Putin has refused a three-way meeting with Zelensky all year, and Moscow has spent the diesel windfall firing 16 ballistic missiles a night at a country with "a couple" of Patriots left.

🇫🇷📊 Le Pen is WINNING EVERY tested runoff in the latest French poll, and the gap keeps GROWING after the recent riots A major survey that started the same night as the October 17-18 violence just came out. She sits at 34-38% in the first round and clears every head-to-head they tried, from 56% against Philippe up to 68% against Mélenchon. When the numbers show her lead expanding in the weeks after streets got set on fire, it suggests many voters had already decided which side they trust to restore order.

🇺🇸 🇮🇷 Daily news recap: Tehran is betting it can outlast Trump by waiting out the midterms... and that bet could backfire badly. Iran figures the vote is its best weapon, but the weeks after November 3 are exactly when Washington would have the most room to strike. Tehran is already warning what happens if it does: “We do not dismiss the possibility of war this time. The US will face very serious problems and the world will experience a major energy crisis should war renew.” That’s when Tehran finds out whether its bet pays off or blows up in its face. @WeTheBrandon

🇷🇸 Serbia's ex-President Vučić discussed what he told Putin before resigning. “I want to show that [I can] win even without a position, like an ordinary citizen.” Vučić stepped down from Serbia’s presidency on Sept. 27, ahead of the Oct. 25 parliamentary elections. It allows him to bypass term limits and run for prime minister. As for winning as an “ordinary citizen,” that’s impossible when you’ve already been the head of state.

Families have now moved back into Ganim, which Israel evacuated 21 years ago. Around half a million Israeli settlers live in the West Bank, while hardline ministers wield growing influence on the ground. The numbers keep rising while the politics stay locked in. Disgusting!

🇺🇸 RFK Jr. says the Trump admin is FINALLY opening a regulated path for peptides so Americans can stop rolling the dice on Chinese gray-market vials. Americans spend BILLIONS buying them online, often without knowing what’s inside or whether the facilities were inspected. The plan is to let U.S. pharmacies produce them under real oversight, with known purity and domestic sourcing. This is practical freedom of choice, basically letting people access what they want without the blind risks of the gray market. Writer: Lucas t.co/HyaX0iH83C

🇺🇸 Trump says Democrats want to "extinguish Western civilization" with 14 days to the midterms... and House Republicans already know the chamber is gone The post is the closing argument: open borders, power plants shut, criminals loose, Palestinian flags up. Joe Walsh, a former Tea Party congressman who left MAGA eight years ago and still talks to hundreds of those voters daily, used to run that same scare the base play himself, and he's asking whether it still works. His former Republican colleagues in the House have told him the chamber is done, and the voters who were supposed to save it are checking out: "They're demoralized. The hardcore MAGA, like, I expect a lot of them to stay home, period." The Senate is a coin flip with the top five or six races inside the margin of error, and JD Vance has to hug Trump for two more years to win a nomination that Ted Cruz will fight him for, so the real 2028 contest starts the morning after November 3. @WeTheBrandon @WalshFreedom

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Russia has STOCKED UP thousands of drones and missiles for a hard winter push on Ukraine. Ukrainian intelligence says Moscow holds around 6,200 attack drones and is building thousands more monthly, alongside hundreds of ballistic and cruise missiles. The goal is to keep pounding Ukraine’s energy and infrastructure targets through the cold months. That kind of firepower makes sustained strikes a serious threat heading into winter.

🇺🇸 The scrutiny surrounding Sam Altman back in 2023 was at an all-time high after a bombshell New York Magazine report and a scandalous lawsuit filed by his sister. Now it’s been alleged that Altman actually tried to pressure the magazine’s editor-in-chief to remove any mention of his sister from the article or squash it. I’m not going to get into what his sister has claimed… you can look that up yourself. I will remind you that this is one of the key players in the future of life as we know it.

🇫🇷 Imagine the world’s most visited museum stayed CLOSED the entire day because rioters BLOCKED IT A few dozen of them stood at the pyramid and other doors from early morning, so staff never let the public in.

🇺🇸 🇮🇷 Daily news recap: Iran looks to be running out the clock on a deal, timing it to do maximum damage to Trump right before the midterms. All the talk of a breakthrough is noise, and the real standoff over the strait hasn’t moved an inch: “The Iranians are not going to let go of the Strait of Hormuz, and the Americans need that reopen.” Until one side gives on Hormuz, every headline about a deal is just theater. @WeTheBrandon

🇮🇷🇾🇪🇸🇦 Iran's foreign minister insists Tehran has nothing to do with the Houthi blockade of Saudi ships at Bab al-Mandeb According to Tehran, there's nothing to see here. Abbas Araghchi says the Houthi blockade is Yemen's own payback for more than a decade of Saudi pressure: "I ask you: what does this have to do with us, as Iran?" Quite a bit, as it turns out. Days before the Houthis declared the blockade in July, Reuters reported that Iran's leadership told them to shut the strait if America hit Iran's power plants. The WSJ reported Thursday that Revolutionary Guard officers are inside Yemen providing targeting, training and the fiber-optic FPV drones that are the IRGC’s signature, and that the war restarted when Iran flew Guard officers and missile parts into Sanaa on funeral flights in July. Tehran wants the world to see two separate fights... but with Hormuz mined and the Red Sea route under threat, Iran and its allies now have a hand on both of the world's main oil exits.

🇮🇹 Italy's Meloni is CRACKING DOWN after violent riots left nearly 200 police officers injured and businesses trashed. Her government just approved sweeping new measures: Up to FIVE YEARS in prison and €20,000 in fines for participating in violent group riots. Parents could be forced to PAY for damage caused by their underage children. And Meloni says HALF of the 330 people arrested were of FOREIGN origin. The youngest suspect identified in Milan? Just 11 YEARS OLD. “There is nothing revolutionary about devastating and stealing.” Her message to rioters: destroy someone's livelihood, and expect the state to come after you.

🚨DAILY NEWS RECAP: Iran is dragging out talks on purpose to bleed Trump before the midterms... while a third carrier heads in and the Mecca Accord's 10-year lockup hits Turkey's parliament Pakistan’s army chief flew into Tehran with a plan Washington had reportedly already approved. Oil fell $6 on a Channel 12 report of a deal with secret IAEA inspections, and it was back to $110 within the hour. Tehran’s answer came from a senior Iranian official, who reportedly told the Pakistani delegation: “Not a single particle of enriched material will leave Iran.” Reuters says Iranian officials are preparing for renewed strikes and see no quick deal. The Roosevelt is reportedly joining the two carriers already there, with a Marine expeditionary unit behind it. Turkey is debating a Saudi defense pact that reportedly bars exit for a decade while the Houthis keep hitting the kingdom. Israel is reportedly building a radar on a Syrian mountain, and Washington’s Patriots for Ukraine are delayed. Every front is loading at once, and nobody is unloading. @WeTheBrandon

🇺🇸🇮🇱🇮🇷 Hegseth now admits he met Netanyahu in Israel and says what they talked about is none of our business... a week before Israel votes A senior US military official and an Israeli source both confirmed the Monday meeting to CBS before the secretary did, and when he finally spoke it was "visiting our troops" plus a line about good partners. The Pentagon still won't comment. Americans are paying $6 a gallon for the war that conversation was about, and the country is being asked to trust the next round to a planning session the war secretary says is private. Netanyahu has posted the version he wants Israelis to hear, "a job to finish." Washington's version is a shrug of indifference, and the first time voters learn what was agreed at Ovda may be when the first bomb lands. Source: CBS News / Writer: Daniel
