🇺🇸🇨🇦 Trump may cut some Canada tariffs to help a Republican senator win Trump is expected to drop 50% tariffs on some Canadian farm and forestry goods, possibly as soon as today, though other Canadian products could get hit to balance it out. The aim is to help Susan Collins, a moderate Republican from Maine, a state that leans heavily on trade with Canada. She has broken with Trump on tariffs, and her race against Democrat Troy Jackson is neck-and-neck heading into the November 3 midterms. The White House says any reports are speculation until it announces something itself. Last month the administration lifted tariffs on Canadian road salt and cement, and Collins took the credit. Jackson’s answer was that Mainers “can’t eat road salt.” This time it’s food on the list, which makes that line a lot harder to use. Source: WSJ / Writer: Daniyal

🇺🇦🇷🇺🇪🇺 Zelensky emphasized that TEAMWORK is the key to keeping Europe safe. “Some countries think they need to keep their interceptors for themselves. They are ready to help Ukraine, but first they need to defend themselves… They already have an army of around 2 million. There is no European country with an army that strong. European armies are not ready for such a struggle.” Which country is gonna step up and be the captain? Writer: Marie t.co/MxbDHxa04s

🇺🇦🇪🇺🇷🇺 Zelensky is getting increasingly frustrated with Europe for easing sanctions on Russia whenever the economic consequences become too painful. He complains that European governments keep making exceptions for oil, gas, diesel, fertilizers, and even parts of the banking system. “You can't just impose sanctions and then lift them because winter is difficult.” But here's the problem: Zelensky expects Europeans to keep financing Ukraine's war effort while dealing with freezing winters and exorbitant energy and fuel prices. And apparently, even the cost of fertilizers for struggling farmers shouldn't get in the way. I'm not sure that's a particularly tempting offer for the average European taxpayer...

🇺🇦🇷🇺 Okay Zelensky, let us use your logic: You say Russia produces 140 missiles a month, has 700 in storage, and that 70% of the components come from other countries. Why don’t you take a page from their book and work with those countries and produce your own missiles at scale?

🇺🇦🇷🇺 Ukraine CONFIRMS a local CEASEFIRE plan in Oleshky while Russia sets its start for October 27 Kyiv said the steps are a silence regime first, then humanitarian supplies in, then civilians free to leave. The White House had pointed to the 29th for the main phase. It’s a small, practical pause in one place where people have been stuck with almost no food or way out. Writer: Lucas t.co/iO7PIe4V6m

🇺🇦 Russian strikes kill 2 and injures 34 in Kharkiv market attack Explosives slammed into crowded afternoon stalls in Lozova, taking the lives of two women while emergency crews rushed dozens of wounded shoppers to hospitals.

🇺🇸 Trump says he called Sundar and asked him to rename the Atlantic “American Ocean” and Hormuz “Trump Strait” He says he sent Google a picture of the Atlantic and told Sundar to change both names. "Sundar said, 'Sir, I can't do it anymore. I've had it. I cannot do oceans, sir. I am not doing the damn Atlantic Ocean, okay?' I said, 'Sundar, I'm only kidding.'" Can't believe he didn't fire it 😂 Writer: Lucas t.co/DyEZE5VxUc

🇺🇸🇮🇷 8 months into the Iran war, the Gulf is a mess. Ships keep getting attacked around Hormuz, a cargo ship sank earlier this month, the Houthis keep targeting Saudi Arabia, oil is washing up on UAE beaches, and Iran is threatening to cut the internet cables under the sea. Back home, gas is over $4 a gallon and oil just topped $110 a barrel. Then the man who promised $2 gas gets on stage, brings up New Mexico, and goes: “I want to change it to ‘New America.’” The whole region is burning, and he’s redrawing the map.

🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran claims 2 more supertankers struck its mines in the Strait of Hormuz. The IRGC says the ships, carrying over 4.5M barrels of crude between them, were using the southern route Tehran calls unauthorized when the mines went off. It says both caught fire and lost engine power, and their crews reportedly abandoned ship. Iran has made several claims like this in the past, with little outside proof so far. The U.S. military has called earlier mine claims false, and a U.S. Navy-led maritime center said one from October 17 had no evidence behind it. So until the ships are named or spotted by someone else, this one stays a claim. Source: @TabzLIVE / Writer: Daniyal

🇺🇸🇷🇺 Trump shares some thoughts on the family of the American freed from Russia “I wonder if they’re going to vote for Trump.” After saying Stephen Hubbard’s family is very happy, he figured they probably won’t, and that they’ll find a way to vote for someone else, because that’s happened to him before. Trump already counting votes from the family 😭 Writer: Daniyal t.co/LY817ko0K3

🇺🇸🇨🇺🇮🇷 Trump has a to-do list, and Cuba is still waiting for its turn “Don’t worry about Cuba. We will take care of Cuba on our way back from Iran.” Problem is, he said the same thing in March, and Iran still isn’t done. Writer: Daniyal t.co/1CLCrtgGBJ

🇺🇸 Trump POINTS OUT household income is at the HIGHEST level ever He told the crowd their income is at the highest level it’s ever been and noted they were nodding along. The latest Census numbers back it: real median household income reached $87,460 in 2025, a new record. The figure is inflation-adjusted and the official high since 1967!

🇺🇸🇷🇺🇺🇦 Trump gives his latest read on where the Russia-Ukraine war stands “We’re close to ending, I hope, the Russia-Ukraine catastrophe.” Close is good news, but “I hope” means nobody should get too excited yet. Writer: Daniyal t.co/VOZSfgcfWE

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Cenk Uygur thinks the next Iran war could trigger a global depression. I've rarely heard Cenk this angry or this worried. He believes Israel is heading toward a disastrous confrontation on multiple fronts, with fighting potentially spreading across the West Bank, Lebanon, Syria and Iran. His prediction is frightening. If Iranian energy facilities are attacked, he expects retaliation against Gulf infrastructure, potentially sending oil toward $200 a barrel. And he isn't warning about another recession. He's warning about a global depression. But I challenged him here: Does he blame too much on Israel? And if its influence over American politics and media is as extensive as he believes, why can independent voices like his still speak freely? Cenk told me his network has faced serious financial pressure, lost business opportunities and struggled to retain advertisers. He believes his criticism of Israel is the reason. I don't agree with every conclusion he draws. But after my own conversations with officials in the region, I'm increasingly concerned about where this is heading. The part that got me was his warning that Israel's pursuit of security could ultimately leave it less secure than ever. @cenkuygur

🇺🇸 Trump basically said his lawsuits are routine for him: "I have hundreds and hundreds of lawsuits, and I don't give a shit about it. If I walk outside, somebody sues me for something. So I get used to it" I think he'd be really concerned if nobody sued him 😂 Writer: Lucas t.co/vmcXGh9eB7

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump’s latest message to Iran comes with a choice and a little dig “We may do another little Operation Epic Fury, or they will agree.” He says the smart move would be for Tehran to sit down and get down to business, but he doubts it’ll happen because he’s not sure they’re that smart. “Little” is a brave word to put in front of Epic Fury.

🇩🇪 Looks like it’s Kaputt for Merz A stagnant economy, delayed reforms, and a surging AfD have driven the German chancellor's approval rating to an all-time record low. He promised to turn Germany around, but with ONLY one in ten satisfied with him, the only thing he’s turned around is his own voter base…against him. Writer: Bri t.co/hPQ36KZvhn

🇺🇸 An old college video just came back to haunt a Trump-backed House candidate in Iowa Joe Mitchell was 19 when it was filmed, and in it he reportedly makes crude comments about Black women and white people, while bragging about his body to his Black friends. That’s a tough look for someone who’s now 29 and running for an open seat in Iowa’s 2nd District, especially since a recent poll had him trailing his Democratic rival by 3 points with the midterms only days away. And the timing couldn’t be much worse, because he was on stage handing Trump a “Man of the Century” award yesterday. Source: Daily Mail / Writer: Daniyal

🇺🇦 Russian strikes CHOKE Ukraine’s economy Ukraine’s GDP fell 2.4% year-on-year in September, deepening from August’s 1.9% drop as Russian attacks cripple trade routes. Traffic through Odesa’s seaports collapsed by nearly 95%, driving a 20% crash in transport, a 12.3% fall in extractive output, a 7% drop in manufacturing, and a 5.6% hit to agriculture. Analysts warn Ukraine is heading for a full-year economic decline. Its worst performance since the start of the full-scale invasion. Source: Intelli News / Writer: Bri

🇺🇸🇷🇺🇺🇦 Trump floats his tariff trick for Russia and Ukraine, then talks himself out of it “Probably should do that immediately with Ukraine and Russia.” He says tariffs helped end 8 wars, with threats of 200% tariffs on both sides behind 5 of them. Then he admitted the U.S. doesn’t buy enough from Russia and Ukraine for it to work. Idea, review and rejection, all in the same answer. Writer: Daniyal t.co/t6soIGDeag

🇺🇸 Trump gives his version of why his press secretary lasted only 5 days “There are nicer ways for you to make a living.” He says that’s what he told Zacharia, after reporters started screaming at her when she walked into the press room and she freaked out. Trump hired her just to tell her to find a better job 😭 Writer: Daniyal t.co/lFiFOG9btH

Trump already decided to strike Iran. World leaders and some people around him are trying to change his mind.

🇺🇸 OVERDOSE DEATHS in the U.S. have DROPPED sharply from the Biden-era peak The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) numbers show the total falling from over 100k a year down toward the high 60ks in recent 12-month counts. The biggest part of the slide started in 2023 and kept going through 2025 and into this year. Border and enforcement moves are part of the picture now, but the supply-side shift in fentanyl is what most researchers flag as the main driver. Source: CDC, White House / Writer: Lucas

Now Tyler Robinson's parents have arrived at the courthouse in Provo, Utah, as the legal battle over the timeline gets started. And the dates are miles apart. Prosecutors want January 2028.
