https://meenews.co/post/6aefa670bcfe2a61c5f4d80f Israeli president taps Netanyahu rival to form government as coalition battle looms te 2026-11-07T22:30:08.195Z Israeli president taps Netanyahu rival to form government as coalition battle looms Israeli President Isaac Herzog announced Saturday that he has chosen opposition leader Gadi Eisenkot to form the country's next government, handing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's chief rival the first opportunity to build a coalition following an inconclusive national election. Herzog announced his decision on Nov. 7, but the formal presentation of the mandate is scheduled for Sunday, November 8, at 5 p.m. Israeli time. Eisenkot will then have 28 days to assemble a government, with a possible 14-day extension. The decision could mark a significant step toward ending Netanyahu’s tenure, but it would also launch a difficult round of coalition negotiations, with deep disagreements among parties seeking to replace him. NETANYAHU DEFIES EXIT POLLS AS VOTE SHIFTS IN HIS FAVOR, BUT MAJORITY REMAINS ELUSIVE Following two days of consultations with Israel’s newly elected parliament, Herzog announced Thursday that factions representing 67 of the Knesset’s 120 members had recommended Eisenkot, chairman of the Yashar party, to form the next government. Netanyahu received the backing of 46 lawmakers, while seven members of the ultra-Orthodox United Torah Judaism party declined to endorse either candidate. "The results of the consultations may appear clear," Herzog said in his Nov. 5 statement, but cautioned that competing political demands and vetoes have left the prospects for forming a government uncertain. The challenge facing Eisenkot is that the 67 endorsements do not translate into a 67-seat governing coalition. In the October 27 election, Netanyahu’s Likud emerged as the largest single party with 27 seats, while his wider political bloc won 53. The four-party alliance seeking to replace him secured just 48 seats. The remaining endorsements for Eisenkot came from two Arab-led parties, the Joint List and Ra’am, which together hold 19 seats. Although both recommended Eisenkot to the president, their support presents a dilemma for some of his prospective coalition partners, who have ruled out depending on Arab parties to establish a government. NETANYAHU GAINS OVERNIGHT AS ISRAEL ELECTION HEADS TOWARD POLITICAL DEADLOCK In a lengthy statement Friday, Eisenkot outlined his plan to establish what he called a National Emergency Government, initially based on the four parties committed to replacing Netanyahu, while leaving the door open for additional parties and lawmakers to join. "Israel is facing a genuine, tangible and dangerous national emergency," Eisenkot said. He accused the outgoing government of threatening Israeli democracy and warned that continued political instability could deepen the country's security and diplomatic challenges. Eisenkot said negotiations with his political partners had already produced significant progress and that further talks were underway. His proposed government would be based on four founding principles: recognition of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state; acceptance of the values of Israel’s Declaration of Independence; universal military, national or civilian service; and recognition of Hamas as a terrorist organization, alongside a commitment to dismantle its military and governing capabilities. ISRAEL HEADS INTO DEEPLY DIVIDED ELECTION AS OCT. 7 RECKONING LOOMS: WHAT TO KNOW Eisenkot said he would invite lawmakers from across the political spectrum to join his government if they accepted those principles. But even within the bloc seeking to replace Netanyahu, disagreements remain over how to secure the parliamentary support needed to govern. One potentially significant development came Friday when Avigdor Lieberman, leader of the secular nationalist Yisrael Beitenu party, signaled a willingness to compromise on military conscription for ultra-Orthodox Jews, reversing a position that had long prevented political cooperation with religious parties. In a statement posted on X, Lieberman argued that preventing another election and ending Netanyahu’s time in office would require difficult political compromises. He identified three conditions: ending the Netanyahu era, avoiding another election and refusing to establish a government dependent on the abstention of the Joint List and Ra’am. On other matters, including the contentious military draft law, Lieberman said political leaders must be prepared to compromise. BENJAMIN NETANYAHU'S LEGACY AND POLITICAL FUTURE ON THE LINE IN ISRAEL'S OCT 27 ELECTION The shift could open a path to negotiations with United Torah Judaism, whose seven lawmakers withheld their recommendation from Netanyahu despite the party’s long standing political alliance with him. United Torah Judaism leader Yaakov Asher welcomed Lieberman's flexibility Friday, but said his party had not yet received a concrete proposal and that any agreement would require approval from its religious leadership. The conscription dispute remains a major obstacle. Ultra-Orthodox parties have sought legal protections for yeshiva students who study religious texts rather than serve in the military, while Eisenkot and several of his partners campaigned on expanding the obligation to serve. Even bringing United Torah Judaism into the four-party opposition bloc would leave Eisenkot short of the 61 seats needed for an outright parliamentary majority. The religious Shas party, which holds six seats, recommended Netanyahu to Herzog. A different possibility would be a minority government established with the help of abstentions from parties outside the coalition, an option discussed by Eisenkot’s allies but explicitly rejected by Lieberman if it depends on the Arab factions. The disagreement exposes the central difficulty facing Eisenkot: although a majority of lawmakers recommended that he receive the first opportunity to form a government, they have not agreed on how such a government should be constituted. Meanwhile, Netanyahu remains caretaker prime minister as the political negotiations continue. The prime minister has also challenged aspects of the election results amid an investigation into suspected voting irregularities. However, Israel’s Central Elections Committee said the integrity of the election had not been compromised, according to Reuters on November 5. For Eisenkot, receiving the presidential mandate would be an important political milestone. But turning his broad parliamentary endorsement into a functioning government will require agreements among parties divided over some of Israel’s most contentious domestic issues, particularly military service and cooperation with Arab lawmakers. Failure to bridge those divisions could leave Israel facing further political deadlock — and potentially another election.

Fox's Big Noon Kick-off visited West Point ahead of their matchup against rival Air Force Academy . One Army student had a sign that stood out above the rest, making Mark Ingram II take notice and chest bump him. The sign said, "The Forward Pass is Communist." In case you weren't aware, Army football doesn't just favor running the football, the Black Knights practically treat the forward pass like it's anti-American. They essentially wage war against the forward pass. Army consistently ranks among the nation's leaders in rushing attempts and rushing yards while sitting near the bottom in passing volume. WHO'S REALLY PLAYED THE BEST THUS FAR THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE COLLEGE FOOTBALL SEASON? Rather than airing it out, the Black Knights rely on quarterback keepers, fullback dives and option pitches to grind down opposing defenses, dominate time of possession and keep the clock moving. It's old-school, smash mouth football, which I'm sure gets the boomers to say, "Now this is the football I grew up with!" Through eight games in 2026, Army leads the entire FBS in rushing yards per game (342.5), piling up 2,740 yards on 431 rushing attempts, an average of 53.9 carries per game. That's a whopping 6.4 yards per carry and 31 rushing touchdowns. Meanwhile, the passing game is practically nonexistent. Army ranks 137th out of 138 FBS teams in passing yards per game (69.1) , attempting just 85 passes all season — a measly 10.6 per game, the second-fewest in the country behind Air Force. The Black Knights have thrown for just four touchdowns compared to 31 on the ground, with nearly 83% of their offensive plays coming on rushing attempts. A LIST OF THE BEST COLLEGE GAMEDAY SIGNS AT LSU DURING SHOW'S 500TH EPISODE While most college programs are obsessed with throwing the ball all over the field, Army has a much simpler philosophy: Why throw the football when you can run it down your opponent's throat? Army (5-3) hosts Air Force (6-2) on Saturday at Michie Stadium in West Point, New York, with kickoff scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET. The matchup is part of the annual Commander-in-Chief's Trophy competition, with Army looking for its fourth consecutive victory over the Falcons in a battle featuring the nation's top two rushing offenses.

In a recent essay written for The New Yorker, the 89-year-old actor reflected on his experience making the film, which earned him his first Academy Award nomination and a BAFTA Award win, noting he "felt immediately uncomfortable" and "unworthy" on set. "Here I was, playing a starring role in a movie by Mike Nichols, who was the director of the moment, but I felt like I had no right to be there," he wrote. "It was a terrible experience making the movie that changed my life." He went on to explain that a lot of his time on set was spent wondering if director, Nichols, "was angry at me," because he was either "doing something wrong" or had finally noticed what Hoffman and "everybody else already knew, that he had miscast the lead in his film." JOHN GOODMAN ADMITS HE FELT 'FRIGHTENED' AFTER THE SUDDEN FAME HE EXPERIENCED FROM 'ROSEANNE' The "Rain Man" star felt he was wrong for the part from the start, admitting he "didn't even want to try out for the part," saying he thought "it was obvious" to him after reading the novel the film is based on "that I was all wrong for Benjamin." "A track star and straight-A student, the head of the debate team—this was an affluent, all-American kid, whose surname was ‘Braddock,’" he said. "Why would you cast a person who looks as ethnic as I do to play the ultimate Wasp? It made absolutely no sense."  Part of what made the experience so bad for Hoffman was his relationship with the director, who he said was "irritable with everyone," and was "frequently sour" on set. GET ENTERTAINMENT SCOOP DELIVERED RIGHT TO YOUR EMAIL BY CLICKING HERE The director's attitude often led to Hoffman feel "that I was about to be fired," as the actor found himself "thinking, I have no f- - -ing idea what I'm doing," while filming some of the most well-known scenes in the movie. LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS Hoffman also recalled feeling as if the director had a "certain sadism" that was directed mostly towards him. "There was a scene in which Katharine Ross had to slap me, and he made us do twenty-seven takes. The scene has Benjamin run into Elaine’s room, soaking wet from the rain, to tell her that he’s had an affair with an older woman; within seconds, Elaine realizes the woman is her mother," he said. "Mike just kept telling Katharine to hit me, to hit me harder. Katharine worried she would hurt me, and I told her, ‘I’m O.K. Just don’t hit my ear.’ Unfortunately, she missed a few times. I was dizzy by the end of that day, and Mike didn’t even use the slap in the film." The next day, Hoffman was scheduled to film a scene underwater, which left him with "blood trickling out of my ear," which later turned out to be a punctured eardrum. "The Graduate" went on to become one of Hoffman's most well-known films. The movie follows Hoffman's character, Benjamin, a recent college graduate who is struggling to find direction post graduation and is seduced by an older housewife and friend of his parents. PUT YOUR ENTERTAINMENT KNOWLEDGE TO THE TEST AND SEE HOW YOU SCORE Following its release in 1967, the film was nominated for seven Academy Awards, including best actor for Hoffman and best actress for Anne Bancroft, and ultimately earned Nichols a statue for best director.

The IIHF announced Saturday that Belarus will not participate, but the federation is "taking the necessary steps required" to comply with the Court of Arbitration for Sport's (CAS) ruling to allow Russia to play. "While the IIHF continues to disagree with the decision of the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) concerning Russian participation in IIHF Championships, we are taking the necessary steps required by the CAS ruling and reviewing what conditions would need to be met to safeguard our Championships, protect the organization’s financial stability and secure the long-term future of international ice hockey," the federation said in a statement. "The IIHF must work within the applicable framework while upholding its responsibility to preserve international competition and protect the sport as a whole. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE "The IIHF is therefore exploring all available avenues, including opening discussions with all affected MNAs, including the Russian Ice Hockey Federation, to identify a constructive way forward that serves the interests of global ice hockey." The CAS ruled last week that Russian teams can compete in upcoming men's and women's world championships, overturning the International Ice Hockey Federation's (IIHF) decisions to exclude them from its competitions. The World Juniors will be the first tournament affected by the decision. Hockey Canada and Prime Minister Mark Carney said last week that Russians would not be allowed to play in next month's World Juniors, which will take place in Alberta. Russia did not compete in Olympic hockey earlier this year, the first since 2014 that had NHL players, nor was it included in the NHL's 4 Nations Face-Off. Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022, four days after Olympic competition ended that year. Vladimir Putin put out a statement through the state-run Russian outlet TASS calling out organizations that are preventing Russian athletes from competing for their country. HOCKEY GREAT WAYNE GRETZKY DEFENDS RELATIONSHIP WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP AND SPEAKS ON RUSSIAN HOCKEY BAN "Unfortunately, they have not honored the commitments they once made, and they continue to enforce restrictions against Russian sports that are not based on law, but are instead highly politicized," Putin said, via translation. "This constitutes a clear and gross violation of the law and of judicial rulings — and, by extension, a violation of the very institutions of democracy. That is precisely how this should be interpreted." Sweden, Finland, the Czech Republic, Norway, Latvia and Denmark came out with statements signing up for a boycott of games against Russia as long as the war in Ukraine is ongoing.

The Nov. 7 Truth Social post paired the proposed offer with a roster of fighters and an image collage. It did not establish that White had accepted the position, and it was not immediately clear whether Trump intended the proposal seriously. "We need these people to defend us against the Lunatic Left," Trump wrote. DANA WHITE SAYS 'I DON'T GIVE A S---' IF TRUMP FRIENDSHIP COSTS HIM BUSINESS, 250TH EVENT WAS TRUMP'S IDEA The president named Islam Makhachev, Khabib Nurmagomedov, Justin Gaethje, Daniel Cormier and Amanda Nunes as prospective assistants, while acknowledging that some were not American. He also listed "Kayla Harris," apparently referring to UFC fighter and two-time Olympic judo gold medalist Kayla Harrison. "Dana, please take the job!" Trump added. The post comes amid turnover in the White House’s senior ranks and weeks after the departure of Trump’s most recent press secretary. Fox News Digital reported Oct. 16 that Katie Zacharia was leaving the position following her debut. Trump had announced her selection Oct. 9 to succeed Karoline Leavitt, who left in August. ABC News reported that Zacharia began work Oct. 12 and was transitioning out of the role that Friday. Asked Oct. 23 about finding another press secretary, Trump told reporters, "No, nothing much. We’re in no rush." Separately, the White House announced Friday that Stephen Miller would succeed Susie Wiles as chief of staff. That announcement confirmed a personnel change; Trump’s Saturday appeal to White left the proposed press secretary arrangement unresolved. UFC'S DANA WHITE SAYS 'YOU'D BE SHOCKED' TO LEARN WHO ACTUALLY SUPPORTS TRUMP IN THE SHADOWS White and Trump have a relationship stretching back decades, rooted partly in Trump’s support for UFC when the promotion was working to establish itself. Trump hosted UFC events in Atlantic City as early as 2001, according to Sports Business Journal. White later became a prominent supporter of Trump’s presidential campaigns and spoke during his 2024 election-night victory celebration. White also introduced Trump at the 2024 Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, describing their long friendship and praising Trump’s resilience. Their relationship carried into Trump’s second term. The president attended UFC Freedom 250 on the White House South Lawn on June 14, 2026. Official White House photographs documented Trump and White walking through the building together to attend the event. White has previously downplayed the prospect of entering politics himself. "I have no personal political aspirations," he told Sports Business Journal in November 2024 when asked about a potential role in Trump’s incoming administration. That statement preceded Saturday’s post by two years and does not establish White’s response to the latest proposal. OutKick has reached out to the White House and UFC for comment.

Trump wore a Dalma suede bomber jacket by Nour Hammour, paired with an Adam Lippes skirt and Manolo Blahnik BB pumps for the occasion, blending her signature polished style with a more relaxed look suited to a college football weekend. The first lady's visit unfolded against a distinctly LSU backdrop, with purple-and-gold tailgating crowds lining the motorcade route and a massive American flag hanging above the stage inside Patrick F. Taylor Hall.  LSU cheerleaders flanked Trump during her remarks, and the Tiger mascot presented her with both scholarship checks while wearing a signature "Be Best" T-shirt. MELANIA TRUMP CHALLENGES CONGRESS TO MAKE HER FOSTER CARE EXECUTIVE ORDER PERMANENT LAW: 'THEIR BIRTHRIGHT' There, university officials, donors and students gathered for an announcement supporting young Americans who have experienced foster care through Trump's "Fostering the Future" initiative. "This achievement will give young people from foster care an anchor of stability, a strong educational foundation, and a chance to build a wonderful life," Trump told attendees. The permanent endowment includes a $5 million commitment from MMR Group, led by LSU alumnus James B. "Pepper" Rutland, and an additional $2.2 million raised from 75 LSU Foundation donors. LSU Foundation President and CEO Krista Raney said the contributions had brought the scholarship fund to "more than $7.2 million and growing." LSU President Wade Rousse said the $5 million leadership gift is expected to generate approximately $200,000 annually, helping students cover tuition, fees, books and room and board. ED ORGERON-LANE KIFFIN PAIRING ALREADY PAYING DIVIDENDS FOR LSU TIGERS DURING PIVOTAL RECRUITING WEEKEND "At LSU, we believe talent is everywhere, but we understand that opportunity is not," Rousse said. The university also embraced the occasion with several football-themed gifts for the first lady. Trump received a custom purple-and-gold LSU jersey bearing the name "MELANIA" and the number 14, along with a Tigers helmet featuring her BE BEST Fostering the Future logo. Former LSU coach Ed Orgeron, known to fans as Coach O, joined the presentation with a specially designed commemorative football created by Big Game USA, a company owned by LSU alumnus Chris Calandra. The initiative extended beyond the ceremony, with special patches on LSU players' jerseys, helmet decals, cheerleader uniforms, mascot attire and commemorative fan towels, according to the White House. COLLEGE FOOTBALL'S FIRST FULL SATURDAY IS HERE AND IT'S A CELEBRATION OF AMERICA AT ITS BEST Southeastern Conference officials also agreed to use a special Melania Trump challenge coin for the game's official coin toss. The legendary LSU-Alabama rivalry even found its way into the scholarship announcement. After Trump revealed that LSU has 14 Fostering the Future scholars compared with Alabama's nine, Raney offered a lighthearted observation. "Mrs. Trump, what I heard you say is that LSU has 14 scholarship recipients and Alabama has nine," Raney said. "So I think that means we've already won the first point." Trump told attendees that 26 universities nationwide are supporting 100 Fostering the Future scholars this semester. "While most eyes will be on the athletes today, I encourage you to recognize LSU's Fostering the Future scholars, who are just as remarkable," she said. Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry, Louisiana first lady Sharon Landry and House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., were among those in attendance. Trump also received a handcrafted wooden bowl made from a fallen limb of one of LSU's historic oak trees, a gift symbolizing the lasting impact of the scholarship initiative. Fostering the Future, launched in 2021 as part of Trump's BE BEST initiative, seeks to expand educational opportunities for young people who have experienced foster care. "A great education does more than prepare someone for work life," Trump said. "It gives something no one can ever take away." She closed with an encouraging message to scholarship recipients. "To the Fostering the Future scholars here today, and throughout America: I see you. I believe in you. And I will keep working to create new opportunities with you," she said.

The Colts have been engaged in trade discussions with players like Jonathan Taylor and Josh Downs after dealing Quenton Nelson and DeForest Buckner to kick off what many expect to be a wild trade deadline period. But quarterback Daniel Jones is someone they’re willing to at least listen to trade offers on now, according to ESPN and NFL Network. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE The Colts have reportedly received calls from multiple teams asking if Jones is available. They’ve at least been willing to hear out those teams, as Jones prepares to face the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9. Among those teams were the Baltimore Ravens, who are probably out of the running now that they reached an agreement with the Arizona Cardinals for Jacoby Brissett.

There is also speculation that the Minnesota Vikings, who have struggled offensively despite a 6-1 record, could be calling the Colts and owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon for Jones’ services. He has a history with Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell, who he worked with after the New York Giants released him midway through his first contract extension. Jones signed a two-year, $88 million contract extension worth up to $100 million in March 2026, with the Colts showing him loyalty despite tearing his Achilles in Week 14 last season. The Colts were one of the best teams in the NFL, but once Jones’ injury knocked him out for the season, Indianapolis failed to find a viable replacement, including the hope Philip Rivers could get the job done by bringing him out of retirement. The Vikings seem to be a consistent quarterback away from a true run to the Super Bowl given their defense, led by coordinator Brian Flores, has been one of the most suffocating units in the league thus far. Kyler Murray, whom the Vikings quickly made QB1, has not delivered that consistent play, and it O’Connell will hope Wentz can do so this week against the Buffalo Bills on "Monday Night Football." After shipping out Nelson and Buckner, the Colts haven’t found the right deal for them to part ways with other high-caliber players. The Nov. 10 deadline at 4 p.m. ET will be telling. As for Jones, head coach Shane Steichen believes he is the man for the job in Indianapolis, and said he "gives us the best chance to win right now." But if the Colts are rebuilding, looking to sell off intriguing pieces for draft capital and more, winning right now might not be the mindset of the organization.

The two issued an apology on Saturday.  During Thursday's episode of Welch's "I've Had It" podcast, the two women laughed as they read social media reactions to Democrats' victories in the 2026 midterm elections. Several posts mocked conservative positions on issues including abortion, vaccines and LGBTQ+ policies. "Somebody posted, ‘I don’t care if you celibate or abstinent. Grab the nearest person available and do your worst. Abortion’s on me,’" Welch said, reading from the social media posts.

"You can't even fathom the pronouns we're going to invent," Welch read while laughing. "You can't even pronounce them." The podcast host praised the writers of the various posts, calling the jokesters "patriots" and insisting that "these people make me patriotic." Welch further broke out into laughter while reading another post aloud: "We're digging up Charlie Kirk and doing it again." 'SNL' WEEKEND UPDATE ANCHOR CALLS REPUBLICANS SLURS, MOCKS CHARLIE KIRK IN STAND-UP SPECIAL On Saturday, the two hosts apologized via a post on Instagram. "On Thursday’s show, we laughed at a joke about Charlie Kirk. It was an insensitive joke, and we should not have laughed. We regret it, and we apologize," the statement read. "Whatever our political differences, there is nothing funny about gun violence. We’ve long supported common-sense gun safety reform."  "To that end, we’ve made a donation to Everytown for Gun Safety, the largest gun violence prevention organization in America," the statement continued. "We’ll keep using our platforms to fight for the safety of all Americans." During Thursday's episode, after laughing at the post, the hosts said, "No comment," before asserting without presenting evidence that Tyler Robinson, the man accused of killing Kirk, supported President Donald Trump.

BOBBY BURACK: ONLINE HATE IS WINNING, FROM PAT MCAFEE TO EVERYDAY AMERICANS AND YOUNG CHILDREN "As a Democrat, it is frustrating to watch Jennifer Welch and Angie Sullivan get treated like voices for the Democratic Party when so much of their own brand is railing against Democrats," Shroff told Fox News Digital. "Have either of them persuaded a single person to vote for a Democrat?" "Then, after Democrats just delivered historic wins and a massive blue wave, they say something this offensive and irresponsible and suddenly the story is about them instead," he added.

Respect. It’s all Zayn ever really wanted from his former Bloodline brother. It’s what he’s wanted from the WWE Universe and the rest of the locker room on SmackDown. He’s said for months he didn’t feel like he was getting the respect he’s earned through his years of hard work in the ring.

Zayn demanded that Reigns shake his hand in the ring. He asserted that he deserved that much. Reigns countered with something else. A passionate hug that will stand the test of time and adds another element to their story that goes back a few years to when Zayn was an "honorary Uce" in The Bloodline. "You’re not honorary. You’re an Uso," Reigns declared. The emotional moment capped an incredible match. Zayn walked into what felt like a home game. He captured the Undisputed WWE Championship for the first time earlier this year at Night of Champions when the premium live event was held in Saudi Arabia. Zayn, who is of Syrian descent, made it an unbelievable moment. The crowd was behind Zayn from the get-go and tried his best to get into the mind of Reigns throughout the match.

No. 3 Utah (9-0) defeated No. 9 BYU 28-20 on Saturday at Rice-Eccles Stadium in a thrilling game that had major College Football Playoff and Big 12 championship implications. Utes quarterback Devon Dampier was outstanding in the win and vaulted himself into the Heisman Trophy conversation. Dampier was 14 of 26 for 177 yards and two touchdowns while rushing for 87 yards and two touchdowns. For Utah, the win was its 15th straight, the longest active winning streak in college football, and also snapped a three-game losing streak to BYU. The Utes remain undefeated and are in the driver's seat to make the Big 12 championship game and are all but assured to make the College Football Playoff. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE With the loss, BYU was dealt a crushing blow that threatened its College Football Playoff and Big 12 championship game hopes. The Holy War began at 10:00 a.m. local time, and Utah was ready. The Utes scored the first touchdown of the game at 10:10 a.m. local time, just 1:15 into the first quarter. Quarterback Devon Dampier scored on a 22-yard run to put the Utes up 7-0 early. It was their eighth opening touchdown drive of the season. Utah then forced a BYU three-and-out and went right back down the field immediately. Dampier found wide receiver Braden Pegan wide open over the middle of the field, and the pair connected for a 46-yard touchdown to put Utah up 14-0. In less than five minutes, Utah was up by two scores. It was their first double-digit lead over BYU since 2019. It looked like the 104th edition of the Holy War might be a rout, but BYU had other plans, as the Cougars dominated the rest of the first half. BYU's comeback began with back-to-back field goals, cutting the lead to 14-6 before finally finding the end zone. On the first play of the drive, Bear Bachmeier found a streaking Legend Glasker for a 75-yard touchdown to cut the lead to 14-13. THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW! Utah's lead would not last long, as Pegan fumbled the ball away at midfield on the ensuing possession. BYU's offense kept the pressure on, scoring off the fumble with running back LJ Martin rushing for a 4-yard touchdown to put the Cougars up 20-14. It looked like BYU’s momentum was going to carry all the way into halftime. Dampier tried to escape the pocket deep in his own end of the field but got the ball punched out from behind by BYU defensive end Bodie Schoonover, and BYU recovered. However, the Utah defense finally stood tall . Bachmeier, trying to capitalize on the fumble, overthrew his receiver, and defensive back James Chenault Jr. juggled the ball and came up with the crucial interception. While Utah wasn’t able to score after the interception, the Utes prevented BYU from extending its lead. Utah's offense had just 32 yards and two fumbles on their final six possessions of the first half after scoring on their first two drives. BYU got the ball first in the third quarter, but it was Utah who made the first impact play of the second half. Defensive end Lance Holtzclaw dropped into coverage and picked off Bachmeier. However, Utah's offensive futility continued. On fourth-and-1 at midfield, Utah's offense dialed up a trick play as wide receiver Creed Whittemore threw deep to Dampier, and the quarterback hauled it in for a 29-yard gain. ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON'T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW! It looked like Utah was going to take advantage and score a touchdown after the incredible conversion, but Whittemore had the ball go through his hands in the end zone on third down. It looked like Utah was going to walk away with a field goal, but kicker Dillon Curtis missed the 29-yard attempt, as BYU held its 20-14 lead. Utah's defense got another stop against BYU, and the Utes' offense finally snapped out of its funk. Pegan caught his second touchdown of the game on a 14-yard fade, as Dampier threw a great pass. The Utes took their first lead since the first quarter with the extra point, putting them up 21-20 late in the third quarter. After the touchdown, momentum started to build for Utah . The Utes stopped BYU on the ensuing possession, and the offense once again marched down the field behind Dampier's rushing attack . However, on third-and-7 from the BYU 18-yard line, Utah took its first timeout of the half. While the Utes didn't complete the pass, BYU cornerback Jayven Williams committed a pass-interference penalty to extend the drive. Dampier once again played the hero, running in his second touchdown of the game on third-and-goal from the 3-yard line. Curtis nailed the extra point , putting Utah up 28-20. It looked like BYU was going to score a touchdown and maybe even tie the game on the following drive, but Utah's defense came up with its biggest play of the day. On third-and-goal from the Utah 2-yard line, Bachmeier dropped back to pass and tried to throw a slant, but linebacker Trey Reynolds jumped the route and intercepted the ball, ending the scoring threat. BYU had to burn all of their timeouts, but they were able to get the ball back with under a minute left at the game after stopping Utah. Utah punter Orion Phillips' punt was poor, going just 18 yards, and BYU started the drive on their own 48-yard line. However, with Bachmeier forced to be desperate with the clock winding down, he heaved it to the end zone and was picked off for the fourth time in the game by safety Nate Ritchie to seal the Utah win. Bachmeier threw three interceptions against Utah after throwing just four all season entering the game. He completed 21 of 35 passes for 272 yards with one touchdown and four interceptions with 59 rushing yards. Utah will look to keep its undefeated season alive when it plays No. 22 Arizona next Saturday. BYU will look to bounce back when it plays Baylor next week.

Luis de Aza Baez admitted to placing dozens of bets, and winning thousands, by wagering on the speed Clase’s pitch came across home plate during the 2023 MLB season. He said he placed the bets "because I had inside information," per ESPN. Clase has been accused of rigging 18 pitches across three seasons in conspiracy with bettors. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE However, de Aza Baez also noted that when he asked about Clase’s pitches the following season, there was a hiccup. "What was going on with [Shohei] Ohtani, there was no more information like that," de Aza Baez said in his testimony. In March 2024, Ohtani wasn’t facing accusations like Clase and Ortiz, but he faced scrutiny after millions had been sent from his bank account to an illegal bookmaking operation. But Ippei Mizuhara, his longtime interpreter, pleaded guilty to stealing almost $17 million from Ohtani to pay off gambling debts. MLB CATCHER WHO WAS BEHIND PLATE FOR ALLEGED RIGGED PITCHES TESTIFIES IN GUARDIANS PITCHERS' GAMBLING CASE Mizuhara is currently in prison, while Ohtani was cleared of any wrongdoing in the case. De Aza Baez was working as an Uber driver at the time, and he had a group chat called "Uber Inc.," where Enoc Pena, an associate of Clase, would send tips in 2023, according to his testimony. Pena was the one who started the chat with the men who worked for Uber in the Massachusetts area. Prosecutors showed a text message screenshot Clase allegedly had sent to Pena on Sept. 30, 2023, when the Cleveland Guardians were set to face the Detroit Tigers. Clase and Pena spoke about "killing the first two chickens," which was code to bet on a pitch against the third batter, granted Clase came in the game and got the first two outs. He never entered the contest in the 8-0 Detroit victory. Clase’s defense team argued the text message was misconstrued, as roosters and chickens in such talks with Pena often refer to cockfighting, which is legal in his native Dominican Republic. De Aza Baez and Clase became friends, and were seen in a video at a relative’s house playing dominoes on a Boston Red Sox-logoed table. However, de Aza Baez testified he never received direct information about pitches from Clase – only Pena. De Aza Baez said he "almost always" won when Pena dropped the tip to him, and though there were no official cuts to be handed out, he gave him some money after winning the bet. Clase and Ortiz, also an ex-Guardians pitcher have pleaded not guilty to conspiracy of wire and honor services fraud, sports bribery and money laundering. "Our defense is the same today as it was in opening: This is a case about big talk and small bets," Vásquez's attorney Todd Spodek told ESPN following the hearing on Friday. "We're confident leaving that judgment to the jury." De Aza Baez agreed with the federal government to forfeit $69,000 won on bets involving Clase, saying he would "tell the truth" in exchange for dropping the wire fraud charge in the case. Prior to De Aza Baez’s testimony, former Guardians catcher Bo Naylor, who was behind the plate for the allegedly rigged pitches by both Clase and Ortiz, testified on Thursday in New York. He said he appeared to call one of the allegedly rigged pitches that were shown to him on a screen inside the courtroom, saying that a slider away to St. Louis Cardinals’ Pedro Pages was a weakness. He also noted he was unaware bettors could even wager on specific pitches. Attorneys elicited from Naylor that he had frequently seen Clase on his cellular phone in the locker room. Prosecutors have alleged that Clase sometimes broke Major League Baseball rules by communicating with gamblers during games. Bettors allegedly won $400,000 from betting platforms on pitches thrown by Clase between 2023 and 2025. Ortiz allegedly joined the scheme in June 2025. Clase was one of baseball’s best closers, pitching to a 1.21 ERA in his 2024 season, finishing third in AL Cy Young voting. But his ERA ballooned to 3.80 in 2025 by the time he was investigated.

But, that doesn’t mean the controversy surrounding this Longhorns squad is going away any time soon after the 34-20 win over Missouri. Did SEC officials get together before the game and decide that pure chaos was on the agenda for this showdown at Missouri? CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE Besides the fact that there were multiple calls that went against Missouri, some reasonable, I don't think we've seen this much madness in one football game this season. Everything came to a head in the third quarter, as Arch Manning was hit from behind while trying to also complete a pass. The Texas quarterback was obviously trying to pass the football, while at the same time a Missouri defender got his hand on the ball. The problem was that Manning's arm was moving forward, even with the ball tipped by a Missouri defender. Then, as the ball laid on the ground 12 yards ahead of the the line of scrimmage, a Texas receiver picked up the football, while trying to snag it before a Missouri defender fell on the ball. According to the SEC officiating crew, the call on the field was ruled a fumble. So, officials reviewed the play, which concurred within the replay center at SEC offices, where they ruled that the call on the field would stand. While a befuddled broadcast crew and those reacting on social media complained, Arch Manning dropped a dime just two plays later for the Texas touchdown that tied the game at 20-20. This was just one example that created plenty of confusion for viewers at home, while the home Missouri crowd was left stunned. As for the game itself, outside a number of weird calls by the officiating crew, this was expected to be a tough outing for the No. 7 Longhorns against a Missouri squad led by quarterback Austin Simmons. Turns out, we got this chaotic Saturday started with a bang, as Maybe this is one of those examples of how anyone in the SEC can be beaten on any given Saturday. But there will be plenty of questions surrounding why some of these calls were made, with a Missouri team that continued to cause problems for a Longhorns squad that is still searching for a mistake-free football game this season. DID WE CREATE A MONSTER? ARCH MANNING’S ‘AW SHUCKS’ PERSONA IS GONE BEFORE MUST-WIN OLE MISS GAME Did we actually learn anything about Arch Manning's presence within the pocket? Sure, there were multiple instances of Texas looking like a squad that could be a threat if it were to make the college football playoff. But, we still saw a team led by Steve Sarkisian that is troubled by their own mistakes with penalties, while also trying to create a rushing attack without Hollywood Smothers. No matter how fans at home feel about the outcome, and if Texas was lucky enough to be bailed out a few times by the officiating crew, the Longhorns will gladly take this win and prepare for a showdown against LSU next week in Baton Rouge. YES, THE SEC IS STILL GETTING RIDICULOUS PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT IN THE AP TOP 25 POLL The win over No. 19 Missouri will obviously sit well with the CFP rankings committee if Texas were to catch a loss that would put them at three on the season. But, it's clear that Steve Sarkisian is learning a few new things about his redzone offense, even if some of the field position was handed to them on a silver platter against the Tigers on Saturday. We are still dealing with a Longhorns football team that feels like it can be beaten on any given weekend. At the same time, this Texas squad is finding ways to win football games at the most important time of the 2026 season.

"It's all about power," said Michael Greer, a special education teacher who spent 26 years as a CTA and NEA member. "In California, the California Teachers Association is the most powerful lobbying group in the state, which also transfers into the national union." Greer — a retired educator with two decades of classroom experience who previously served as a local CTA chapter president and as a member of the Del Norte County Unified School District Board of Trustees — said the unions’ core priorities have fundamentally shifted since he entered public education. PRO-TRUMP GROUP LEADS NEW COALITION TO UNDERCUT TEACHERS UNIONS "When I first became a union president, it was about the teachers. We were focused on helping educators become better at what they do — helping them teach reading, math, and science," Greer explained, noting that union-sponsored conferences used to feature practical instructional workshops and classroom training. "We took those programs back and taught our colleagues how to implement them. That has changed completely." Greer’s remarks follow independent analyses revealing that the nation's two largest teachers unions — the NEA and the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) — have directed hundreds of millions of dollars toward political activism, lobbying, and progressive advocacy groups over the last decade. According to an investigation by the North American Values Institute (NAVI), an education watchdog tracking ideological activism, the NEA spent at least $547 million on political activity and advocacy between fiscal years 2016 and 2025. That total includes $458.9 million officially designated as political and lobbying expenditures, along with $88.2 million in direct contributions to progressive organizations. During the same period, the AFT reported $383.2 million in political activity and lobbying, NAVI found. A separate report from Parents Defending Education found that national teachers unions have funneled over $660 million to left-wing political groups and causes since 2015. When state and local affiliates are included, total union political spending tops $1 billion. NATION’S LARGEST TEACHERS UNION UNDER FIRE AS CONTROVERSIAL AGENDA PUTS CENTURY-OLD FEDERAL CHARTER AT RISK According to the Parents Defending Education report, those contributions went to major Democratic-aligned political action committees — including the Senate Majority PAC and House Majority PAC — as well as progressive groups like the State Engagement Fund (over $60 million) and the For Our Future Action Fund (over $40 million). Greer argued that this political spending has altered what unions expect from their members. "What it has changed to is teaching teachers how to become union members, how to go on strike, and how to gain social justice power," Greer told Fox News Digital. "We got away from teaching teachers how to teach and moved toward teaching them how to change the social system." The union emphasis on political activism comes amid persistent declines in student academic achievement. Federal education officials recently noted that national assessment data shows only about three in 10 students are proficient in math and reading, despite more than $3 trillion in federal taxpayer funding spent since the U.S. Department of Education was created in 1979. JONATHAN TURLEY: CHICAGO SCHOOLS REWARD PROTEST WHILE STUDENTS CAN'T READ Greer, who also serves as chair of the Del Norte County Republican Party, acknowledged that the CTA maintains relationships across party lines at the state level — including funding travel for teachers of both major political parties to attend state political conventions. "The CTA actually funds teachers to attend both the state Republican and Democratic conventions," Greer said. "They will cover up to $800 for hotel and transportation, so teachers can participate." However, Greer said his vocal opposition to the union’s shift from classroom instruction to political activism has made him a rare ideological outlier within the organization. "That's why I'm known as one of the ‘bad boys’ in California education," Greer said. "I’ve spoken out because they aren't helping teachers on the ground floor where instruction actually happens — they are helping themselves gain the power to alter laws and regulations." MCMAHON CALLS FOR 'RESET' OF EDUCATION AFTER US SPENT $3 TRILLION AND STILL SAW READING SCORES DECLINE "I’ve seen it as a school board member, and I’ve seen it as an NEA-CTA delegate at national conferences," Greer added. "They are no longer focused on children and what they are learning. It’s about what teachers can do for political power, and that’s where my problem lies as I watch my union dues being spent." Fox News Digital reached out to the National Education Association and the California Teachers Association for comment but did not immediately receive a response.

Unfortunately, that headline had to be deleted. You can blame Tiffany Stratton for that.

She said she didn’t need their help to beat Green. She was in control of the match for the most part as the mind games proved to be working. But Morgan took her eyes off Green for a split second. Green shocked Morgan with the win. Green delivered a heartfelt speech as she relished in the win. "It’s been a long 13 years. … I do deserve it," Green said reacting to the crowd. "Thirteen years I left blood, sweat, tears in this ring. They told me for 13 years, I didn’t deserve it. They told me for 13 years that all I was a placeholder and a stepping stone for everybody else. Thirteen years I was overlooked.

Morgan blindsided Green until Tiffany Stratton, the Women’s Money in the Bank holder, came out from the crowd and hit Morgan with her briefcase. Perez and Rodriguez tried to join the fray but Green knocked them down. It looked like Stratton was going to cash-in on Morgan. Instead, the unthinkable happened. Stratton nailed Green with the briefcase as well. Stratton decided to turn on her friend and cash-in on Green. She hit the Prettiest Moonsault Ever and pinned Green for the win. Stratton became the WWE women’s champion for the second time. Not only did she take the strap from her, but she also stole the Crown Jewel Championship and the Crown Jewel ring from Green as well. Green was left in tears. Green still appears to be recognized as the Crown Jewel champ, but Stratton sure sent a message by taking those material items from her. It’s the second time Stratton has been able to take advantage of a women’s champion under the guise of friendship, having done so against Nia Jax last year after getting the briefcase in 2024. Stratton is as conniving as a Money in the Bank winner as the WWE Universe has ever seen. The 946 has said that nobody is safe around them. The same can be said for Stratton with the Women’s Money in the Bank.

The "ConAir" star admitted earlier this week that he was adapting to a unique housing situation following September's disaster where severe coastal erosion impacted his beachfront abode. Cage, 62, explained that he got carried away in describing his property problems while "riffing with a very good interviewer" at Comic Con over the weekend. NICOLAS CAGE'S MALIBU BEACHFRONT HOME DAMAGED AFTER DRIVEWAY COLLAPSES INTO MASSIVE SINKHOLE While appearing at the L.A. event, Cage divulged that upcoming Halloween plans were a little tricky due to the sinkhole situation. "I’m currently a little bit homeless," he said, per Page Six. "Something happened to my house in Malibu so I’m just sort of living in hotels, so I don’t have normal trick-or-treaters I would like to enjoy tonight." NICHOLAS CAGE TURNED DOWN PARTS IN TWO BIG FRANCHISE MOVIES FOR ROLES HE THOUGHT WERE BETTER The "Face/Off" actor revealed he would instead take his four-year-old daughter, August, trick-or-treating in nearby Santa Monica before tuning into Stanley Kubrick's classic, "The Shining." Cage's beachfront home was damaged due to coastal erosion spurred by September's Hurricane Marie, which formed in the Pacific Ocean and generated massive waves in addition to high tides.

"I went to Comic Con and I was riffing with a very good interviewer and he just had to ask, because it was Halloween night, 'What are you doing for Halloween?'" he said.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef8ca4bcfe2a61c5f4cd13 Certain sleep habits could offer clues to hidden type of depression, scientists say te 2026-11-07T20:40:04.148Z Certain sleep habits could offer clues to hidden type of depression, scientists say A person's sleep habits may help identify a newly proposed subtype of depression linked to the body's internal clock. In a study of 11,380 Australian adults with a history of depression, about 23% met researchers' criteria for what they called "circadian depression." The profile included at least three of six features: being an evening person, waking up feeling very tired, sleeping longer during the worst periods of depression, experiencing seasonal changes, having a later midpoint between falling asleep and waking up, and experiencing "social jetlag," a large shift in sleep timing between workdays and days off. The seasonal changes could involve sleep, mood, activity, appetite, weight or energy. THE DAYTIME HABIT THAT COULD TRANSFORM YOUR SLEEP, ACCORDING TO NEW STUDY The study, published on Oct. 20 in The British Journal of Psychiatry, could eventually help guide more personalized care for patients with depression, according to the researchers. "Depression is not a uniform illness, and understanding the characteristics of different subtypes means we can give people earlier access to treatments that will be most effective for them," first author Emiliana Tonini, Ph.D., from the University of Sydney's Brain and Mind Centre, said in a statement. The label, however, is not a formal diagnosis and needs independent replication and further study, the researchers noted. People in the circadian group reported an earlier onset of depression and more severe symptoms than those who did not meet the criteria. They were also more likely to report weight gain during depressive episodes. They also reported poorer responses and more side effects with two common classes of antidepressants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs). POPULAR SLEEP AIDS BEFORE SURGERY COULD PREVENT PAINKILLER DEPENDENCE LATER Participants reported how well their medications worked, but the study did not explain why some were less effective and did not test treatments aimed at adjusting the body’s internal clock.  Researchers said light exposure, regular sleep schedules and melatonin-related approaches warrant further study. Dr. Ian Hickie, a study co-author and professor of psychiatry at the University of Sydney, said the proposed profile "cuts across existing historic subtypes" of depression, most commonly atypical and bipolar depression, because they share features such as low energy and oversleeping. COMMON GYM SUPPLEMENT COULD HELP FIGHT DEPRESSION, NEW RESEARCH SUGGESTS Atypical depression can also involve weight gain, while bipolar depression refers to depressive episodes in people with bipolar disorder, which also involves periods of unusually elevated or irritable mood and increased energy. "We define circadian only by sleep-wake and circadian features," Hickie told Fox News Digital. CLICK HERE FOR MORE HEALTH STORIES For some people with this profile, Hickie said sleep-wake disruption may be more than a symptom of depression. "This type of circadian disturbance is not simply a consequence, but the underlying cause," he wrote. The study itself, however, could not establish whether body-clock disruption caused depression or resulted from it. Staying up late or having trouble waking does not necessarily indicate depression. Participants had already reported depression, which in some cases was severe, recurring or long-lasting. Participants in the circadian group also reported more manic-like experiences. John Puls, a psychotherapist and adjunct professor at Florida Atlantic University, said those symptoms could help explain their reported response to antidepressants. TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ "SSRIs are not meant to treat these more significant mental health symptoms that go far beyond depressive symptoms," Puls, who was not involved in the study, told Fox News Digital. "In fact, some SSRIs can actually worsen manic symptoms, which lead to poor sleep." There were several limitations to the study, the researchers acknowledged.  CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTER Participants reported their own sleep patterns and treatment experiences, and the cross-sectional analysis didn't show whether sleep disruption preceded or followed depressive symptoms. All participants were of European ancestry, so the findings may not apply to other populations. Jillian Amodio, a Maryland-based psychotherapist and founder of Moms For Mental Health, cautioned against using the findings as "a benchmark for treating each person in the same way." "Biological, environmental, social and psychological factors all need to be accounted for," Amodio, who was not involved in the research, told Fox News Digital. Researchers should examine more populations, including people who work night shifts, and account for differences in time zones and seasons, according to Amodio. The study was led by researchers at the University of Sydney and QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute, with co-authors from institutions in Australia, the U.K. and the U.S. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef8ca2bcfe2a61c5f4cceb LeBron James, Joel Embiid Make Unwanted NBA History in 76ers Loss te 2026-11-07T20:40:02.069Z LeBron James, Joel Embiid Make Unwanted NBA History in 76ers Loss LeBron James’ return to Cleveland with the 76ers went sideways, and Joel Embiid joined him in a rare, ugly stat line.

On Saturday, he was joined by LSU royalty in NBA great Shaquille O'Neal, Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes and WNBA star Angel Reese. Oh, and Kevin Costner was there too. LANE KIFFIN SAYS HE'S 'SAD' ABOUT CHANGES TO LSU-ALABAMA RIVALRY, TELLS LSU FANS TO 'START DRINKING' EARLY Now, Shaq, Skenes and Reese are obvious choices, as they all had incredibly successful careers in the LSU athletic program, while Costner's LSU connection is unclear. But does he even need one? He’s the man! I mean, he’s so cool. He was playing "Angry Birds" or something on his phone while walking into the stadium. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE I think we can all agree that Costner is in that elite group of actors that, if you can get them to show up, you do it just because it's a flex. Like, if you were going out to dinner with buddies and one friend goes, "I think Kevin can make it," and you go, "Hart?" then he says, "No, Costner," one friend is getting voted off the island, "Survivor"-style, to make room. Who cares that you played high school baseball together? It's Costner! Go eat at McDonald's, and we'll call you when we're done with dinner... if Costner is cool with it. I’d put Sly Stallone in that club along with Keanu Reeves, Arnold Schwarzenegger and maybe Tom Cruise, so long as we keep the conversation centered on "Top Gun" or Cruise doing his own stunts, not Thetan levels. Anyway, that is to say that Kiffin is pulling out all the stops ahead of the game that LSU needs to win to seriously bolster their case for the College Football Playoff. And if they can get Costner to agree to show up to their games should they get the nod from the CFP committee, that will probably help them as well. I mean, he's Kevin Costner. C'mon.

The Vision was clear. Maxxine Dupri was already interfering with Penta at ringside. Then, Bronson Reed came out of the crowd to take out the Luchador and Evans. It appeared a successful title defense was in Breakker and Theory’s sights. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK PRO WRESTLING COVERAGE All of a sudden, the lights turned off in the arena. The drums sounded. Oba Femi appeared at the top of the stage to a raucous ovation. Reed sprinted up the ramp to accost "The Ruler." The two briefly brawled before Femi hit Reed with an uppercut. Femi proceeded to dump Reed off the stage and onto several tables below. It sparked enough of a distraction to take Theory and Breakker out of their zones. Penta hit Breakker with a big splash from the top rope. Evans tagged himself in as Penta hit Theory with a Mexican Destroyer. Evans nailed the OG Cutter and pinned Theory to capture the tag team titles. THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW! Breakker and Theory’s reign ended after 123 days. Breakker and Theory initially defeated The Street Profits in July with help from Dupri. It marked the second time The Vision held the tag championship. However, the two defended the titles sparingly which suggests the duo may have been on equal footing with Penta and Evans going into the match. Losing the tag team titles might be a wake-up call for The Vision to get back to business. The group was seen as the future of WWE. Femi’s emergence coupled with injuries have muddied their, well, vision, for months. It’s time for The Vision to get back to business. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef8344bcfe2a61c5f4cb46 Pro-trans activists hold rally against Washington state ballot initiative to protect girls sports te 2026-11-07T20:00:04.066Z Pro-trans activists hold rally against Washington state ballot initiative to protect girls sports Transgender-rights supporters marched through downtown Seattle Thursday after Washington voters approved a measure barring biological males from girls’ K–12 interscholastic sports, setting up a potential court battle over the new restrictions. Demonstrators gathered at Westlake Park before marching toward Pike Place Market, according to KUOW. The protest followed the passage of Initiative 638, which also requires students seeking to compete in girls’ sports to provide medical verification of their biological sex. The measure had 56.8% support in returns reported Thursday by FOX 13 Seattle. The Associated Press called its passage Wednesday evening, with ballots still being counted. WASHINGTON STATE VOTERS APPEAR TO PASS FIRST-EVER BALLOT MEASURE SEPARATING BOYS AND GIRLS SPORTS "I was kind of expecting it, but it was still devastating nonetheless," Evan Gortner of Gender Equity Movement, which organized the protest, told KUOW. Marchers chanted, "638 is trans hate." Some attendees also criticized Democratic leaders for not doing more to defeat the initiative. The result delivered a victory to Let’s Go Washington, the conservative group behind the measure, even as voters rejected two other initiatives it backed concerning parental rights and the repeal of the state’s tax on high earners. Supporters argue that separating girls’ sports by biological sex protects fairness, safety and athletic opportunities for female students. Opponents contend the restrictions discriminate against transgender students and could subject girls to intrusive medical verification. WOMEN WHO FACED BIOLOGICAL MALES IN GIRLS' SPORTS AND LOCKER ROOMS SPEAK OUT AHEAD OF WASHINGTON STATE VOTE The dispute now extends beyond the election results. Gender Justice League Executive Director Danni Askini told KUOW her organization was consulting partners and evaluating a possible challenge on student-privacy grounds. The group had not formally announced a lawsuit in that Nov. 5 report. The ACLU of Washington also condemned the outcome, but told KUOW it does not discuss potential litigation. That response did not announce a lawsuit. Washington Democrats, meanwhile, have said they support other organizations pursuing challenges but will not bring a case themselves. "WA Dems will not be challenging the initiative in court. We believe there will be organizations who do and we support those efforts," the party previously told OutKick. Party Chair Shasti Conrad called the initiative unconstitutional in a Nov. 5 statement. The measure’s medical-verification requirement has become a central point of contention. Its text requires a health examination and consent form, or another statement signed by a student’s personal healthcare provider, verifying biological sex as part of the required routine sports physical. That verification must rely on reproductive anatomy, genetic makeup or naturally produced testosterone levels. The text does not prescribe a particular examination or test. Washington has allowed students to compete on teams consistent with their gender identity since 2007. The debate also prompted protests from female athletes before the election. About a dozen Camas girls declined to race against a transgender teammate on Oct. 13, OutKick previously reported. For schools, the immediate question is how to carry out the new requirements. The Washington Interscholastic Activities Association told KUOW it was preparing changes for Dec. 3 and reviewing implementation, including physical-examination requirements. It said updated guidance and forms would go to schools after legal review.

The Paris Police Prefecture denied numerous formal requests for permits allowing protests in various areas of the city, citing October riots that led to thousands of arrests and violent clashes between protesters and law enforcement. "These events demonstrated the intention of certain individuals to target the institutions of the Republic, specifically through actions directed against public buildings and State services in order to undermine the foundations of the Republic," the police wrote, according to a Fox News Digital translation of a police order. "That these elements characterize a particular and serious risk to public institutions, agent safety, and the normal functioning of public services during such demonstrations," the statement continued. FRANCE'S MACRON BLAMES PROTESTS ON 'ULTRA-LEFT GROUPS WHOSE AIM IS TO BRING DOWN THE REPUBLIC' FRANCE DEPLOYS 70,000 POLICE OFFICERS TO PREPARE FOR NEW WAVE OF PROTESTS ON HALLOWEEN Police also prohibited a rally of France's popular Yellow Vest protest movement scheduled for Place de la Concorde, citing security concerns. Despite the ban, prominent Yellow Vest members attended and were arrested at the National Assembly in front of Place de la Concorde. Benjamin Ball, a member of the Yellow Vests coordination group, and spokesperson Azelma Sigaux, were both arrested early in the afternoon Saturday, according to the Agence France-Presse (AFP). PHOTOS SHOW AFTERMATH OF RIOTS AS MASKED GROUPS CLASH WITH POLICE ACROSS FRANCE France's Interior Ministry anticipated 170,000 people to protest nationwide Saturday, a day marking the fourth straight week of protests. The country deployed 70,000 security forces to quell the demonstrations, according to the AFP. "The risk is exactly the same as on previous Saturdays," Interior Minister Laurent Nunez said, instructing authorities "not to lower their guard," AFP reported.

French authorities also report that protesters have lobbed projectiles at police. Demonstrators are protesting high costs of living, among other things, as student and teacher unions join Yellow Vests at the mass rallies. On Monday, French Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu is due to meet with leaders from the unions to discuss wages and purchasing power, AFP reported. Despite the planned tête-à-tête, union leaders are calling for fresh strikes on Tuesday to keep the pressure on the government, claiming the unions are "in a position of strength (and) the government in a position of weakness and starting to yield." Since student and union protests began in mid-September, National Assembly Deputy Leader Marine Le Pen has surged in national polling and is now seen as likely to force a runoff in the presidential election after announcing her candidacy in October. Fox News Digital contacted the French Interior Ministry and Paris Police Prefecture for further information.

More than $12.8 billion was spent on political advertising in the 2026 midterms making this the most expensive election cycle in American history. In my home state of Texas, the Senate race drew preliminary estimates of nearly $573 million placing it among the most expensive non-presidential contests on record. Despite all the differences between races and candidates, a few things were dependable. Every campaign said it was going to win. Every analyst said their numbers were right. Every super PAC said its candidate had the best policies and character. And the mainstream media picked its favorites, cut to commercial, and served up a dozen ads of warring politicians accusing each other of high crimes and misdemeanors. TRADERS POUR NEARLY $1.3 BILLION INTO PREDICTING WHO WILL CONTROL CONGRESS A massive industry exists to bend your view of reality toward whatever our would-be leaders in Washington and the state capitals want you to believe. Americans need a way to cut through that noise. No wonder prediction markets are booming. As with any new technology, prediction markets have drawn a lot of attention and a lot of criticism. Senators wrote letters warning about election contracts. States moved to sue or ban them outright. And somewhere, a podcaster is still on hour 133 of explaining how it's all rigged. POLLSTERS MISSED THE MARK AGAIN — BUT THIS TIME, IT WASN'T REPUBLICANS THEY UNDERESTIMATED Then Election Day settled the argument. Across all tracked federal contests, Kalshi's markets had the eventual winner out front in 98% of races. The markets not only correctly priced non-competitive incumbents they also accurately reflected the razor-thin odds in core battlegrounds. This wasn't a one-time fluke. Kalshi studied 2,243,741 of its resolved markets, dating from its launch in 2021 through mid-2026. It found that prices became remarkably well calibrated as events approached. In plain English, the prices meant what they said. Events priced at 30 cents happened about 30% of the time; events priced at 90 cents, about 90%. Outside researchers have reached the same conclusion. Brier.fyi, an independent site that measures prediction-market accuracy, saw a similar pattern across nearly 74,000 Kalshi markets. In a study published last month in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers examined more than 1 million resolved forecasts across four platforms and found events happened about as often as their prices said they would. A Washington Post review of this year's primaries showed that candidates won about as often as their market prices suggested. THE BATTLE FOR CONGRESS GETS A WALL STREET-STYLE SCOREBOARD POWERED BY REAL-MONEY BETS Despite that long track record, critics will seize on upsets like Democrat Annie Andrews' defeat of Republican Sen. Darline Graham in South Carolina as proof that prediction markets are worthless. The markets had her as the underdog, about a 1-in-3 shot heading into Election Day. But if underdogs never won, the markets wouldn't be working. Upsets like hers are exactly what a 1-in-3 price promises. Prediction markets don't have to be perfect to be useful. They're an incredible addition to the polling, forecasting and reporting we already have, and they make all of it better. Serious data journalism is expensive. As newsrooms have cut budgets and staff, the deep dives and data desks have been some of the first casualties. Prediction markets give that work a new reason to exist. When information is worth money, someone will pay for it. That means more research, more deep-dive reporting and more jobs for data nerds. That's a win for all of us. Reliable information has never been more valuable, and markets reward people for finding it, weighing it and acting on it. LEE CARTER: THE 5 WORDS THAT EXPLAIN THIS ELECTION BETTER THAN ANY COMMERCIAL Show me a profitable trader, and I'll show you someone who would rather read a precinct-by-precinct breakdown of Hinds County, Mississippi, than finish a Netflix series. Ask me how I know. Understanding the world is no longer just something you can show off at cocktail parties. Now, your dedication to the truth can potentially improve your financial well-being and, at the same time, help make all of us better informed. For anyone who has felt shut out by the mainstream media, prediction markets are especially good news. They're the next chapter in a long story. MEMBERS OF CONGRESS USING ONLINE PREDICTION MARKETS? DON'T BET ON IT For decades, three networks and a handful of anchors decided what it was acceptable to believe. Rush Limbaugh broke that hold on talk radio, giving millions of listeners an alternative. Fox News Channel followed with "We Report, You Decide." Blogs and podcasts offered additional perspectives and drew attention to stories that might have never been covered. But with billions of dollars still lined up to twist the truth, we can always use a new way to separate fact from spin. Prediction markets do that by making you put your money where your mouth is. A campaign insider can insist a race is in the bag with no downside. A trader has to back the same claim with cash. In a market, you only get paid for being right. CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINION Even if you never trade, you benefit: Markets crystallize all available information into a single number, and that number has no reason to lie to you. Depending on who you were rooting for, Tuesday was either exhilarating or devastating. On Election Day there are important issues at stake and emotions run high. That's exactly why it helps to have a way to set those feelings aside and see the race as clearly as possible. In more than a decade of trading these markets, I've learned that the best traders share one habit: They don't invest with their hearts. I've been fortunate enough to come out ahead cycle after cycle, often in years when the results went against what I'd hoped. That's the discipline these markets teach (and require): It's forecasting, not wishcasting. We root for the world we want, but we invest in the world we have. If investing in elections feels a little strange, consider this: Politicians have been making money off you for decades. Maybe it's time to return the favor.

But sometimes, in reality, they are decided by a midnight coin toss in a parking lot in front of Catfish Roundup. Three Oklahoma high school football teams – Liberty, Gore and Central Sallisaw – were all tied for third place in Class A-2, District 3. However, there were only four playoff spots, so only two of the teams could advance. The problem? The Oklahoma Secondary School Activities Association’s (OSSAA) tiebreakers didn’t break any ties.

"We're excited it went our way." For Gore, there was no love in Oklahoma, as the coin did not flip their way. Gore head coach Nathan McCurley was gutted for his seniors. "You just hate to see it for the seniors, especially how we've rallied these last four weeks to put ourselves in this position," McCurley said, according to 2News Oklahoma. "To have it go away on a coin flip, I'm not upset over that. It's just, I hate it for the kids more than anything." For Liberty, on the other hand, the coin flipping the right way was a big deal for the school. "You never know what's going to happen when you get in a situation like this, so it's a big deal for us, our school history," Liberty head coach Nate Green said, according to 2News Oklahoma. "We don't have a lot of trips to the playoffs." Well, thanks to the coin, Liberty has an opportunity to play again and add to their school’s history.

It seemed to be what he needed to prove at WWE Crown Jewel in a Last Man Standing match on Saturday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Rhodes flirted with punting Orton in the head for weeks as he sought retribution for "The Viper" nailing him in the head following his WrestleMania 42 victory. At that point, Rhodes was left with a busted eye. After their match at this premium live event, Orton was left with a kick to his head and a bloody gash. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK PRO WRESTLING COVERAGE There was no doubt that the match itself was going to be brutal. The two took the fight in the crowd for a brief moment where Orton levied his attack on Rhodes with a trash can. The brawl flipped to the stage where Orton powerbombed Rhodes through a table. Rhodes would flip the momentum briefly as he took out his frustration on Orton with the steel steps. He then went for a high-risk move as Orton was left sprawled out on the Arabic commentary team’s announce table. Rhodes took out a ladder and looked to end the match right then and there. He tried to hit a splash but ended up crashing and burning instead. Orton thought he had control from there. But the desire for Rhodes to unleash maximum punishment would outweigh Orton’s yearning to put "The American Nightmare" in his rearview mirror. Orton tried to punt Rhodes and keep him down for the count, but missed. THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW! Rhodes hit Orton with multiple Cross Rhodes and Orton’s head clipped the side of the steel steps that Rhodes had pushed into the ring.

With Orton reeling, Rhodes cemented the victory with a punt to Orton’s head. Rhodes was able to finally pull the trigger and do what everyone watching WWE programming had been waiting on for nearly seven months – payback. But it’s something that had been tormenting Rhodes. He’s supposed to be the one to embody what it means to be "QB1." The punt could signal a change in Rhodes’ attitude moving forward.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef79e8bcfe2a61c5f4c986 California DA says Gavin Newsom's 'cruel' death row clemency stabs crime victims 'in the heart' te 2026-11-07T19:20:08.974Z California DA says Gavin Newsom's 'cruel' death row clemency stabs crime victims 'in the heart' California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced plans to commute the death sentences of all 548 inmates on the state's death row, a move that Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer criticized as stabbing crime victims "in the heart." Speaking on "Fox News @ Night," Spitzer took direct aim at Newsom, saying his decision is "immoral" and arguing that it disregards the extensive judicial review given to death penalty cases. "He literally stabbed in the heart many victims who have suffered through an already-unjust justice system in California that already revictimizes victims over and over and over," Spitzer said. NEWSOM’S DEATH-ROW COMMUTATIONS SPARK DA REVOLT AS PROSECUTORS WARN OF LEGAL FIGHT Among the victims' relatives criticizing the decision is Marc Klaas, whose 12-year-old daughter, Polly, was kidnapped from her bedroom at knifepoint and murdered in 1993 by condemned killer Richard Allen Davis. Davis was sentenced to death in 1996, and the California Supreme Court upheld his conviction and sentence in 2009. "Baby killers and cop killers and spree killers and serial killers have all found an ally in Gavin Newsom," Klaas told Fox News Digital in October. MICHAEL RUIZ: CALIFORNIA PROSECUTORS REVOLT AFTER NEWSOM ORDERS STATE'S WORST KILLERS OFF DEATH ROW Newsom announced the plan for mass commutations in a letter on Nov. 5, in which he told Californians he would exercise his "constitutional clemency authority to commute all California death sentences to life without the possibility of parole." The governor said he believes state-sanctioned killing is "incompatible with California's values" and argued that the death penalty cannot be applied fairly, pointing to the risk of executing innocent people. GOP GOV DEWINE URGES OHIO TO ABOLISH THE DEATH PENALTY, SAYS IT IS NO LONGER A DETERRENT Other death row inmates who could be affected by the commutations include Charles Ng, who was convicted of killing 11 people in the Sierra Nevada foothills, and Cary Stayner, who was convicted of murdering four people near Yosemite National Park in 1999 and was sentenced to death for three of the killings. "Well, it was callous. It was calculated. It was mean. It was ugly. It was ill-spirited. It was [a] lack of any empathy. It was immoral," Spitzer said of Newsom's decision. "I could think of so many adjectives to describe the behavior of the cruel governor." When reached for comment by Fox News Digital regarding Spitzer's criticisms, Newsom's office pointed to the governor's Nov. 5 letter announcing the commutations. In the letter, Newsom acknowledged the emotional toll on grieving families, writing, "This decision is among the most difficult of my career, not because I doubt its necessity for our state but because I know its announcement may surface excruciating memories for victims' families." CHARLES MANSON FOLLOWER TIED TO SHARON TATE MURDERS GETS RECOMMENDED FOR PAROLE AFTER 55 YEARS IN PRISON Spitzer argued that converting death sentences to life without the possibility of parole (LWOP) could allow convicted killers to seek release if future changes to state law create a pathway to parole or resentencing. "The legislature has tried to convert life without the possibility of parole to eligible for parole. So by converting death penalty to LWOP, it's actually L-WALK: walk out of prison," Spitzer said. Gavin Newsom's office, however, says the commutations would not make the inmates eligible for release and that the sentences would remain life without the possibility of parole. NEW YORK BILLS COULD ABOLISH LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE FOR SERIAL KILLERS AND COP KILLERS, CRITICS WARN MENENDEZ BROTHERS GRANTED 2027 PAROLE HEARING A YEAR EARLIER THAN EXPECTED Newsom's plan to commute 548 death sentences still faces a legal hurdle for hundreds of inmates. Under the California Constitution, commutations for inmates convicted of a felony on two or more occasions require a recommendation from the California Supreme Court with at least four justices concurring. Still, Spitzer argued that Newsom's decision has already revictimized families by causing additional suffering after years of legal proceedings. ALABAMA GOVERNOR COMMUTES DEATH SENTENCE AS DOUBTS EMERGE ABOUT EVIDENCE IN MURDER CONVICTION "Gavin Newsom says he can't sleep at night. He should never sleep at night with the revictimization that he has caused to these poor victims who have suffered irreparable harm," Spitzer said.

On Friday, Macklemore – whose legal name is Ben Haggerty – uploaded a lengthy statement to Instagram, claiming it has been difficult for him to bring his "Free Palestine" tour over to the United States. He claimed that nine major venues across the U.S. turned him down. Madison Square Garden, Prudential Center, Barclays Center, UBS Arena, Intuit Dome, Kia Forum, Crypto.com Arena, Chase Center and Climate Pledge Arena were all among the venues that said no, according to Macklemore. He emphasized that their decision came "once they found out these were my benefit shows for Palestine." MACKLEMORE DOUBLES DOWN AFTER GETTING KICKED OFF ED SHEERAN TOUR AFTER PRO-PALESTINE STANCE "In over twenty years of touring, I’ve never experienced anything like this," he wrote. Macklemore went on to explain that activists, poets, entertainers and artists who stood in solidarity with Palestine have been experiencing this treatment for "decades." The "Thrift Shop" singer said the only real regret he has from the past three years "is not speaking publicly when Zionists were kicking me under the table." "But the intimidation, manipulation and suppression I experienced are part of how those in power keep entertainers quiet. It’s their main tactic to keep us in line. Shut up and dribble, or you will be punished," he wrote. MACKLEMORE SLAMMED AS 'PERFORMATIVE' AFTER ANNOUNCING 'FREE PALESTINE TOUR' "But at this point, I’m three years past giving two s---s about maintaining any relationships, business or personal, with anyone that isn’t riding for a Free Palestine," Macklemore continued. He explained that he would rather lose "every opportunity" in the entertainment industry than keep his opinions about Palestine to himself. "To these owners," he wrote, addressing the venues directly, "the words Free Palestine represent a threat. Not because they endanger anyone, but because those words challenge the systems of power they have built their fortunes on." Macklemore encouraged other artists to not keep their opinions silent and referenced his three overseas shows as proof that people want to support Palestinian liberation. "Look at what just happened in Europe. Three sold-out arenas. Tens of thousands of people from different backgrounds, religions and walks of life standing together. More than forty artists and speakers putting their names and platforms behind Palestinian liberation. For all the attempts to paint this movement as one rooted in hatred, what filled those rooms was love," he wrote. GET ENTERTAINMENT SCOOP DELIVERED RIGHT TO YOUR EMAIL BY CLICKING HERE His statement included references to the historic midterm elections and Abdul El-Sayed winning a Senate seat in Michigan. "The tides are turning. Just three nights ago, Abdul El-Sayed won his Senate race on a platform that included ending the genocide in Gaza and stopping U.S. arms sales to Israel. AIPAC spent $42 million trying to defeat him. And they still couldn’t win," Macklemore wrote. "The trouble with buying power is believing you’ve bought the people too. The billionaires depend on our silence and complicity. They forget that we buy their tickets. We fill their arenas. We build their empires. And we have the power to bring them down," he continued. LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS Macklemore added, "The people have spoken. We want an end to the genocide and we want a Free Palestine.

PUT YOUR ENTERTAINMENT KNOWLEDGE TO THE TEST AND SEE HOW YOU SCORE Macklemore concluded his statement by saying he will be hosting more shows in support of Palestine.

The former Hollywood heartthrob, who rose to fame opposite Brooke Shields in the 1980 film, "The Blue Lagoon," opened up about the turning point that changed his life during an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital at Chiller Theatre Expo in New Jersey. "I guess the turning point for me was having children, so I wanted to be a dad more than I wanted to be a drunk," Atkins said. ‘DALLAS’ STAR SAYS TV ‘COUGAR’ LINDA GRAY’S PRANK DURING CONTROVERSIAL KISS LEFT HIS LIPS NUMB "So, I did that, cleaned up, coming up to 40 years, so still very active and wouldn't change it for a minute."

"Just when you think, okay, well they grew up [his children], they moved out, [I] got a divorce, now you're by yourself, ‘I guess it's okay to start drinking again,’" he said. "No, they had grandkids, so now I don't want my grandkids ever seeing their grandpa drunk, you know, so no." Atkins credited his children with helping him make a lasting change.

The actor shares two adult children, Grant and Brittney, with his former wife, Lyn Barron Weber, whom he married in 1985. The couple divorced in 2007. Atkins previously spoke about how his drinking affected his Hollywood career, including an opportunity to star in the 1984 film "Footloose." During an appearance at Fanboy Expo Knoxville earlier this year, the actor said he had been considered for the lead role that ultimately went to Kevin Bacon, but was drinking heavily when he met with filmmakers. "I was a mess back then," Atkins said at the event, according to People magazine, as previously reported by Fox News Digital. JOHN GOODMAN WAS 'EATING ALCOHOLICALLY' BEFORE STARTING WEIGHT LOSS JOURNEY AT NEARLY 400 POUNDS He explained that his condition during the meeting cost him the opportunity. Despite the setbacks he experienced early in his career, Atkins has continued to reflect on the unexpected fame that followed his breakout performance in "The Blue Lagoon." The actor told Fox News Digital this month that he never planned on pursuing a career in Hollywood. "I never wanted to act," he said. Atkins explained that he entered the entertainment industry through modeling before attending an open casting call for "The Blue Lagoon."

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef778dbcfe2a61c5f4c8c6 Bill Maher warns Democrats that some on far-left want 'communism' after midterm sweep te 2026-11-07T19:10:05.413Z Bill Maher warns Democrats that some on far-left want 'communism' after midterm sweep Comedian Bill Maher doubled down on his criticism of democratic socialists Friday, telling his "Real Time" audience that "these people want communism" and urging moderates to reclaim control of the party following Democrats' historic sweep in this week's midterm elections. On Friday, Maher spoke with writer and podcast host Coleman Hughes regarding the rise of socialist policies within the Democratic Party — and the party’s apparent appetite for more moderate candidates — during the show’s roundtable discussion. "My issues are high rents and crime," Hughes said. "Socialists don't tend to be good on those issues because they institute policies like rent control, which sound good and then end up increasing the rents in the long run." SHOCKING PERCENTAGE OF DEMOCRATS IDENTIFY AS 'DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISTS' ACCORDING TO NEW POLL: 'TOXIC POLICIES' "And we got a hundred years of data on socialism," Hughes added. "It's not good for the economy. It's not a new idea." Maher appeared to agree with his guest, arguing that many of the policies pushed by socialist candidates are more closely aligned with communist ideology. LIBERAL HOT SPOT RESIDENTS CAN’T AGREE ON WHAT SOCIALISM MEANS AS FAR-LEFT MOVEMENTS GAINS STEAM "We already have a lot of socialism and a lot of it is appropriate," Maher said. "That's not what these people are selling, these far-left people." Maher said some government services and programs — including Medicare, the Marine Corps and Social Security — fall under his definition of socialism. TRUMP'S CORPORATE STAKES ARE A GIFT TO THE NEXT DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT "It's anything the government does and the private sector doesn't," the comedian said. "You just read what they say in their manifesto. They want the government to take over everything. That is a prescription for failure." Maher also argued that the sweeping victories by moderate Democrats could indicate a broader voter rejection of the policies advocated by far-left candidates. AMERICA SAW THE BLUE WAVE COMING — BUT DRASTICALLY UNDERESTIMATED THE EXTENT OF THE DEM TSUNAMI "To me, one of the great results of this election was it gave moderates a big stick to beat them off with," Maher told his audience. He added that moderate Democrats could use their midterm victories to regain control of the party, while suggesting that the socialist agenda may not be as popular with voters as its supporters believe. JOE MANCHIN WARNS DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISTS ARE GAINING GROUND AS DEMOCRATS REMAIN SILENT "Who has the guts to say this is the Democratic Party, you are doing a whole different thing," he continued. "We already have a lot of socialism, and I'm for most of it. We need most of it, but these people want communism." BILL MAHER WARNS THAT THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS BEING 'COLONIZED' BY SOCIALISTS, SAYS HIS 'VOTE IS IN PLAY' The liberal comedian has repeatedly criticized the rise of socialism within the Democratic Party and warned about socialist policies ahead of the midterms earlier this year. "I did say that it was about two months ago, and you see how quickly the news changes in just two months, because that was before the Supreme Court made a ruling on voting rights," Maher said at an event in June, referencing the Supreme Court's April 29 decision in "Louisiana v. Callais," which found that Louisiana's revised congressional map constituted an unconstitutional racial gerrymander. "So, that has changed just in the last two months, and then the Democrats just elected three very far-left democratic socialists in New York who are crazy — like outright really crazy — so like, how are they gonna blow it? I don't know, but they seem to be well on their way," he added at the time. Maher’s comments come after Democrats have won at least 254 U.S. House of Representatives races, according to the Associated Press — subsequently giving the party its largest House majority since 2009. MAJORITY OF AMERICANS BROADLY REJECT SOCIALIST IDEOLOGY EVEN AS FAR LEFT SURGES TO POWER Additionally, democratic socialist Nithya Raman defeated incumbent Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass earlier this week, becoming another democratic socialist elected to lead a major American city, following New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's victory last year. However, Democratic strategist Kaivan Shroff told Fox News Digital that Maher's criticisms of socialist policies — and his characterization of candidates who support them — are misguided as the comedian continues to criticize Democrats. "There is something perfectly ‘Bill Maher’ about declaring it an ‘indictment of our educational system’ that young people supposedly do not understand socialism, and then immediately revealing that he does not understand it either," Shroff said. "Medicare and Social Security are social insurance programs. The Marine Corps is literally a branch of the military." BERNIE SANDERS, DSA REVEAL DEMANDS FOR DEM PARTY AFTER SOCIALISTS SWEEP NEW YORK ELECTIONS "If every service the government provides counts as socialism, then courts, cops and Congress are socialist too and the word has basically lost all meaning," he added. "He is mocking other people for being uneducated on the subject while demonstrating the same sloppy understanding himself." Shroff also pointed to Maher's history of dining with President Donald Trump at the White House — most recently last month — and accused the liberal comedian of criticizing socialist policies more harshly when Democrats embrace them. "And if Maher really wants to worry about socialism, he might want to look a little harder at his dinner buddy Donald Trump," Shroff said. "Trump’s government has taken roughly a 10 percent stake in Intel and about a 15 percent stake in MP Materials. Those examples are far closer to socialism than Medicare is. Yet somehow Maher’s socialism panic gets a lot quieter when Trump is the one doing it." CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE Fox News Digital reached out to Maher for comment.

The announcement, which was made via a Truth Social post Saturday afternoon, came after the Democrats retook control of the House and Senate in the midterm elections, winning strong majorities in both chambers of Congress. "The Democrats are going around threatening a lot of people, including the Attorney General of the United States, and others, with Impeachment and many other forms of punishment, even though they admit they have no reason to do so," Trump wrote. He added that "no impeachable acts" have been committed by Blanche or other administration officials. Trump also said that Democrats have been threatening Republican donors "with imprisonment" because of their views. In his post, he named only one Democratic politician, Sen. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan. He accused her of saying she would "go after all young people that believe in Republican Values." Trump appears to have been referring to comments Slotkin made on Oct. 13 at the University of Chicago about wanting to pursue "signature cases" against people who "enabled" Trump. "I want young people coming out of school to say, 'Should I go work for the Trump administration? Like, that sounds fun, I might get an opportunity.' I want them to be like, 'Lord, that might be buying myself a ton of problems that I don't want, and so let me avoid participating in that,'" Slotkin said. "I want that deterrence message sent." Trump concluded his post by saying "these EXTORTIONISTS" should be imprisoned and that he wanted the DOJ to investigate the alleged actions as a "criminal act." This is a developing story.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef7088bcfe2a61c5f4c750 JONATHAN TURLEY: Midterms empower Democrats to target the Electoral College te 2026-11-07T18:40:08.093Z JONATHAN TURLEY: Midterms empower Democrats to target the Electoral College After the midterm elections, the Democrats are moving in for the kill. Liberal politicians and pundits realize that the Republicans’ losses may represent only a fleeting and indeed predictable shift in power. While played up by the media, the results this month are consistent with those under prior administrations. For example, the GOP’s loss of roughly 46 seats is modest compared with losses under other presidents such as Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who lost 79 seats; Barack Obama, 69; Harry Truman, 68; and Bill Clinton, 54. Thus far, Trump is just making the top ten. Some presidents, like Obama, who experienced massive losses, came back to win second terms. And that could happen. But the Democrats who won on Tuesday night are not waiting to find out. They are moving to help guarantee that they can take the White House and, with control of both houses, implement radical changes to ensure that they hold power for years to come. That includes finally negating the Electoral College to increase the power of high-population blue states such as California and New York. STATE OF PLAY: BLUE WAVE SWEEPS DEMOCRATS INTO POWER, WITH KEY RACES STILL HANGING IN BALANCE As discussed in my recent book, "Rage and the Republic," academics and pundits have been discussing radical changes, including trashing the Constitution, for years. The key is to destroy minority protections by killing the filibuster and create an insurmountable majority by adding new states like the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. The most important initial objective is packing the Supreme Court with an immediate liberal majority to allow for measures that would likely be struck down. Years ago, Harvard professor Michael Klarman laid out a radical agenda to change the system to guarantee Republicans "will never win another election." However, he warned that "the Supreme Court could strike down everything I just described." Therefore, the Court must be packed in advance to make these changes possible. None of this is possible with a Republican in the White House. CARVILLE TELLS DEMS TO QUIETLY PREPARE POWER GRAB WITH DC, PUERTO RICO STATEHOOD AND SUPREME COURT PACKING The Democrats know that they are unlikely to attain a veto-proof majority. They need to get a president who will help pack the Court, add states and make fundamental changes to the constitutional system. That goal may now be attainable. DEMOCRATS SEIZE MAJORITY OF GOVERNORS’ OFFICES IN ELECTION-NIGHT SHIFT With a slew of new Democratic governors, Democrats believe they may have enough states to sign on to a compact to effectively nullify the Electoral College. The Framers saw the College as a way of protecting small states from being overwhelmed by high-population states. It was designed to get presidents to take the interests of small states seriously and to protect political minority populations. JONATHAN TURLEY: DEM SOCIALIST RIPS ‘INSTITUTIONALISTS’ AS FAR LEFT TURNS UP HEAT ON DEFENDERS OF CONSTITUTION In my book, I raised the increasing importance of the Electoral College and other protections for small states and minority political groups in our system. I was a late convert, and I previously criticized the College for producing elections in which candidates won the majority vote but lost the electoral vote. I still share those reservations with a majority of Americans, who are polling at 58% in favor of electing presidents by popular vote. I still believe that a president elected by less than a majority of the public is deeply problematic. This is not, however, the time for such a change, and, if anything, the push for direct democratic reforms only reaffirms the judgment of the Framers that this is an important limitation for the nation. GAVIN NEWSOM EXPRESSES 'OPENNESS' TO PACKING SCOTUS, CALLS ELECTORAL COLLEGE SYSTEM 'PERVERTED' The direct democratic reforms being pushed by professors and pundits risk destabilizing our constitutional system. Many on the left want to unleash more direct democratic power, including calls by groups like the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) to eliminate the Senate, the Supreme Court and the presidency. The nullification of the College is part of the direct-democracy movement. Witnessing this movement, along with the support of establishment figures, I changed my mind about dumping the College as part of a package of reforms that could fundamentally change our republic. SEN DEB FISCHER: THE LEFT'S WAR ON THE SENATE AND SUPREME COURT PUTS OUR REPUBLIC AT RISK With one-party control in states like Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, the party is ready to get states to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. Under the compact, states agree to give all their electoral votes to the presidential ticket that wins the national popular vote. The constitutionality of the compact has obviously not been tested. There are compelling arguments that such a constructive amendment of the Constitution is unlawful. The Supreme Court has described the constitutional system as creating a "finely wrought" system of procedures designed to preserve a balance of powers and avoid both the concentration of power and majoritarian abuse. The compact is designed to avoid the Article V amendment process precisely because its advocates know that they would have a difficult time securing such a change to our Constitution. Ten years ago, I would have applauded this effort. Now I am deeply concerned. We are in the midst of a national fever as politicians fuel the rage of citizens. Yet, the greatest danger to our republic is found in those establishment figures encouraging Americans to abandon constitutional values and institutions as "nostalgia" and condemning those who seek only "incremental" changes. WE’RE ALL MISSING THE SOCIALIST TAKEOVER THAT’S HAPPENING IN PLAIN SIGHT In "Rage and the Republic," I explore these changes in both a historical and contemporary context. It is a book about revolutions and how they can consume those who start them. It is a history that resonates more deeply as new far-left members of Congress promise "revolutionary" change, including those supporting the DSA agenda. Many current proposals from liberal politicians and pundits are strikingly similar to those of the Jacobins in the French Revolution. Both the American and French revolutions arose during the same period, but one became the world’s oldest and most successful republic, while the other became a blood-soaked tyranny known as the Reign of Terror. CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINION The Jacobins, who were composed of radical journalists, writers and lawyers, pushed for the same unicameral system and direct democratic measures that many are now advocating. Even figures such as Thomas Paine, one of two figures who played a significant role in both revolutions, supported such measures to allow for more direct democracy. He later came to regret some of those views as the French Revolution became the bloodbath known as "the Terror." The New Jacobins are seeking to pursue the same disastrous reforms. The Framers rejected this approach and warned future generations against adopting such direct democratic measures. Benjamin Rush, a signatory to the Declaration of Independence, referred to it as democracies becoming "mobocracies." We are now toying with the very elements that could produce the mobocracy that the Framers sought to avoid. There are good-faith reasons for converting the presidential election to a popular-vote election. However, with the assault on our constitutional values and traditions, citizens cannot afford to ignore a broader agenda unfolding in the wake of the midterm elections.

Nathan Rasper has been summoned as part of an inquiry involving 14 people who were re-arrested after being released from immigration detention. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) maintains that ICE complied with lawful court orders and that a judicial release order does not permanently shield individuals from immigration enforcement. "When an illegal alien is ordered released by a judge, that does not immunize the alien from immigration enforcement for all time," DHS said in a statement to Fox News Digital. "ICE may seek to re-arrest the alien in a way that complies with the judicial decision. To suggest that ICE cannot do this is nothing short of sabotage." The Nov. 5 order issued by U.S. District Judge Charlotte Sweeney followed an earlier ruling requiring the government to identify every case in Colorado since Oct. 27 in which ICE re-detained someone within 12 hours of a court-ordered release. Federal officials subsequently identified 14 petitioners who had been re-arrested after being released, but the filing did not provide the precise timing of when the re-arrests occurred. She directed officials to provide the exact dates and times of those releases and re-arrests and identify any additional individuals immediately detained following court-ordered releases. OBAMA, BIDEN JUDGES DRAW FRESH FIRE AS TRUMP’S IMMIGRATION COURT CLASHES HEAT UP: ‘ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE’ The additional reporting requirements followed a Nov. 4 hearing in which Sweeney questioned whether ICE was circumventing judicial orders by briefly releasing detainees before immediately taking them back into custody. At that hearing, she ordered Rasper to appear at a follow-up hearing Monday to address the agency's practices. The inquiry stems in part from the case of Ramon Quintero Alvarez, who was released from immigration detention on Oct. 27 before ICE immediately took him back into custody, according to a government court filing. In a Nov. 3 court filing, federal government attorneys said they would not submit a legal brief defending the lawfulness of Alvarez's continued detention. The filing prompted Sweeney to convene the Nov. 4 hearing at which Assistant U.S. Attorneys Andrew Soler and Kevin Traskos appeared alongside ICE Assistant Field Office Director Nichole Black, who testified under oath about the circumstances surrounding Alvarez's re-arrest. APPEALS COURT BLOCKS TRUMP ADMIN FROM HOLDING MIGRANTS WITHOUT BOND FOR OVER 90 DAYS At a Nov. 4 hearing, Sweeney ordered Alvarez be released and barred immigration authorities from detaining him again unless the government demonstrated, by clear and convincing evidence at a bond hearing, that he posed a flight risk or danger to the community. The government must submit the additional information requested by Sweeney by 8 a.m. Monday, ahead of Rasper's scheduled court appearance later that morning. The proceedings could shed light on ICE's compliance with judicial release orders, but Sweeney has not indicated whether she intends to pursue contempt proceedings. The dispute comes as ICE faces similar legal challenges across Colorado, where other Biden-appointed federal judges, including U.S. District Judges Nina Wang and S. Kato Crews, have presided over cases involving disputes over immigration detention and court-ordered releases. Fox News Digital reached out to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Colorado for comment.

Odds are subject to change The Underdog Nobody’s Talking About: Kentucky Most of the attention today will go to Miami-Notre Dame and the Holy War, which makes Kentucky the most interesting spot on the board. The Wildcats are 7-1, 5-1 in the SEC and alone in first place in the conference. They’ve won five straight, including one-point wins over LSU and South Carolina and a 21-13 win at Oklahoma. They also had a bye week to prepare. Tennessee is 6-2 but coming off a deflating 27-24 loss at South Carolina, and the Vols have struggled to finish against good teams. They did beat Alabama 26-10 and crushed Kentucky 56-34 last season, which is a big reason the market still sees Tennessee as the clear favorite at home. Kentucky has done nothing but close games this season, and a 6.5-point spread gives the Wildcats room to lose and still cash. The first-place team in the SEC getting nearly a touchdown is a number worth backing, especially with Kentucky’s kicker, Adam Zouagui, reliable in tight finishes. Use your first $5 on the Wildcats.

These safeguards may help prevent someone from transferring your number without authorization. Review electric, gas, water, internet and other household-service accounts. Someone using your name or personal information may try to start service, change an account or leave an unpaid balance behind. Utility fraud may not appear on your credit report immediately. A bill, welcome email, service appointment or shutoff notice for an account you did not request is worth investigating. You can also request a report from the National Consumer Telecom & Utilities Exchange (NCTUE). This specialty reporting service collects information from participating phone, pay-TV and utility companies. You are entitled to one free NCTUE report every 12 months upon request. It may reveal accounts or service requests missing from your traditional credit reports, although it does not cover every provider. If you find an unfamiliar account, note the date, address and service details. Then contact the company and ask which information was used to open or change the account. Look for explanations of benefits, medical bills, prescription notices or insurance communications related to care you did not receive. Medical identity theft can create an unexpected bill, but it can also place incorrect information in your medical record. For example, someone may use your insurance information to obtain treatment, leaving behind records that could affect future care or insurance claims. If something looks unfamiliar, contact the provider or insurer directly and ask for the records connected to the claim. Do not ignore a small bill simply because the amount seems insignificant. The inaccurate medical information may be a bigger concern. Watch for notices from the IRS, Social Security Administration or a state benefits agency that do not match your situation. Examples include income reported by an unfamiliar employer, a tax return you did not file or unemployment benefits claimed in your name. You can review tax information through your IRS online account. You can also check your earnings history through your "my Social Security" account. If you notice unfamiliar earnings, contact the Social Security Administration about correcting your record. Pro tip: Consider requesting an IRS Identity Protection PIN. This free, six-digit number helps prevent someone else from filing a federal tax return using your Social Security number. You can learn more at IRS.gov. Always use official government websites to review or report suspicious activity. If an unexpected message claims to come from an agency, do not follow its links. Find the agency's website independently. Your email and social accounts may not show a financial loss, but they can reveal whether someone is trying to take over your digital identity. Review recent sign-ins, sent messages, forwarding rules, recovery addresses, trusted devices and connected apps. Email deserves special attention because someone with access to your inbox may be able to reset passwords for other accounts. If you see unfamiliar access, change your password from a trusted device, sign out unfamiliar sessions and enable stronger multifactor authentication. Where available, use an authenticator app, passkey or security key rather than relying only on text-message verification codes. IDENTITY RESTORATION: WHAT TO DO AFTER IDENTITY THEFT Spread the review across four short sessions: If nothing looks unusual, record the date of your review. The goal is to recognize unfamiliar activity, not question every legitimate bill. However, do not wait for a scheduled review if you receive a suspicious account alert or discover a potentially fraudulent transaction. Investigate those warnings immediately. An unfamiliar message does not always mean identity theft. A lender may use a business name you do not recognize, a family member may have used a shared device or a service provider may have changed its billing name. Look for related warning signs. A new account combined with an unfamiliar address, phone change or collection notice deserves immediate attention. Even a single unauthorized transaction or account opening warrants investigation. When you are unsure, compare the record with your own statements and contact the company to explain the mismatch. Do not confirm sensitive personal details to an unexpected caller. Contact the company yourself using a verified number. Keep the original bill, email or letter, but do not click links inside an unexpected message. Write down the date, company name, account or service involved and the first sign that something was wrong. If you call, record the department, case number and follow-up date. For credit issues, save relevant copies of all three reports. For phone, bank or email issues, keep account-change notices and screenshots. Store these records securely so you can refer to them when speaking with the company, a credit bureau or an identity theft recovery specialist. Do not assume an unfamiliar record is fraudulent simply because you do not recognize the company name. A lender, utility provider or collection agency may use a parent-company name. Contact the organization using verified contact information. Ask for the date the account was opened, the address associated with it and the steps required to confirm whether it belongs to you. If the company confirms the account is fraudulent, ask for a fraud case number and written instructions. Then add the issue to your records and check whether related activity appears elsewhere. Checking your accounts regularly is a smart first step, but identity theft can happen between reviews. Identity monitoring tools can help by watching for certain changes involving your personal information and alerting you when something suspicious appears. Some services monitor credit activity, financial accounts, personal information found in data breaches and certain types of account openings. Depending on the service, you may receive alerts about unfamiliar credit inquiries, changes to your personal information or possible misuse of your identity. Not all identity monitoring services offer the same protection. Before signing up, consider these features: One advantage of using an identity monitoring service is having someone keeping watch for suspicious activity even when you are not actively checking your accounts. Depending on the provider and plan, these services can monitor multiple sources of information and send alerts when something needs your attention. Some also provide dedicated restoration specialists who can help guide you through the recovery process if your identity is stolen. A paid identity monitoring service may be worth considering if you want more comprehensive monitoring and additional support when problems arise. Look for a plan that covers the types of activity most relevant to you and offers timely alerts. While no service can catch every form of identity theft, combining professional monitoring with your existing account security settings can give you an additional layer of protection. See my tips and best picks on Best Identity Theft Protection at Cyberguy.com Pro tip: Start with the four highest-impact places: If you only have a few minutes, check your email, bank accounts, phone account and credit reports first. Those areas can help reveal whether someone is trying to access your information, move money, receive verification codes or open new credit. A clean credit report does not rule out identity theft, so return to the other four places when you have time. YOUR BANK MAY STOP TEXTING YOU SIX-DIGIT CODES I think one of the biggest mistakes people make with identity theft is assuming that a clean credit report means they're in the clear. Someone could be using your information to open a phone line, get medical care or run up a utility bill, and you might not find out until much later. I'd start by checking your email, bank accounts and wireless carrier settings. Then pull your free credit reports and take a closer look at places you might normally overlook. I'm also a big believer in freezing your credit before there's a problem. It's free, and you can temporarily lift the freeze when you need to apply for credit. Identity monitoring can provide another layer of protection, but no service can monitor everything. That's why it's important to keep an eye on your accounts, too. The sooner you spot an unfamiliar account or transaction, the sooner you can start limiting the damage. Have you ever discovered an unfamiliar account, bill or charge that made you suspect someone was using your identity? What tipped you off?

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef6726bcfe2a61c5f4c537 Built from Scratch: How a rented kitchen and hand-squeezed fruit became a versatile mixer te 2026-11-07T18:00:06.580Z Built from Scratch: How a rented kitchen and hand-squeezed fruit became a versatile mixer Johnna Rossbach never expected to become an entrepreneur. After spending 15 years in a career that left little room for creativity, she found the motivation to build something of her own after becoming a mother. "I wanted to show my daughters what it looks like to be empowered, and that if you’re not happy with something, change it," Rossbach said. Rossbach loved cocktails, but she was disappointed by the mixers on store shelves. They often featured similar flavors, contained ingredients she wanted to avoid and required too much preparation. CEO SUNDAY: AVELO AIRLINES CEO REVEALS THE HABIT HE CREDITS FOR HIS SUCCESS  That's when she created Mixly. Rossbach drew on her background in marketing and communications and teamed up with Megan Sather, who brought design expertise to the venture. Together, they created a line of fruit-forward cocktail mixers made with real ingredients. The very first night the team began working on Mixly, just about everything that could go wrong did. They started at 4 p.m. and didn't finish until 3 a.m.  When their juicer broke, they squeezed limes by hand. Then their labeler stopped working, forcing them to apply every label themselves. Around midnight, Rossbach remembers looking at Sather and realizing they still had hours of work ahead of them. They had a choice: Call it a night and try again the following week or push through. The answer was clear. They turned up the music and kept working. BUILT FROM SCRATCH: HOW A FAMILY TURNED CRAFT BEER INTO A HOLIDAY TRADITION "That was the moment we realized we made the best business partners," Rossbach said. "We had the same determination and the same willingness to roll up our sleeves and figure things out, even when nothing was going according to plan." That night set the tone for building Mixly — and it's a big reason the co-founders have always handled their own manufacturing. The team began developing recipes, with help from a mixologist friend to refine the flavors. Then COVID-19 disrupted their plans, forcing the founders to figure out production as they went. In an early interview, Rossbach said they were still making the products themselves in a rented kitchen while exploring ways to scale. "When you start a business, there is no map," she said. Rossbach described the hardest part as facing the unknown: the constant decisions, self-doubt and possibility of getting things wrong. The company has been self-funded from the beginning, without outside equity investors. The founders were intentional about building something of their own and maintaining control of the business. But that also means every dollar matters, and the stakes feel deeply personal. "We've put our own money, time and countless hours of work into Mixly," Rossbach said. Cocktails were the founders’ entry point, but they wanted their mixers to work for people who weren’t drinking, too. Rossbach was pregnant while the company took shape, just as the sober-curious movement began to emerge.  The founders saw an opportunity to create a product that could be enjoyed with or without alcohol, so no one at the gathering had to feel left out. "Let’s make this versatile. Let’s make this for everyone," Rossbach said, recalling their early thinking. That’s why Mixly’s alcohol-free positioning isn’t a recent response to a trend. The mixers have always been alcohol-free. What has changed is the surrounding market: More consumers are looking for flavorful drinks without alcohol, and retailers are beginning to recognize the variety of occasions Mixly can serve. CEO SUNDAY: ATOMIC WINGS CEO SHARES HIS JOURNEY FROM WALL STREET TO THE RESTAURANT BUSINESS "I think the interest in drinking less extends well beyond January or October," Rossbach said. "People want a good option for an ordinary Tuesday, dinner with friends or a celebration." The mixers are designed to work whether customers add a spirit or pour them over sparkling water. That calls for more than sweetness. Mixly builds flavor with fruit, acidity, herbs and bitter botanicals. Its Bitter Orange Cherry mixer, for example, uses gentian root to balance sweetness with a more complex bitter note. "A good alcohol-free drink does not need to apologize for what is missing," Rossbach said. "It doesn’t have to imitate a cocktail to deliver that." The founders began hearing from customers who were using Mixly in ways they hadn’t initially anticipated. One customer told them she added a mixer to her children's water for extra flavor. Others mentioned using the products in cooking and marinades. Then Rossbach’s daughters became regulars at a local dirty soda shop. After spending about $20 on two drinks, Rossbach started thinking about how Mixly’s flavors could work in dirty sodas, too. Her daughters now make the drinks at home and have even set up a neighborhood stand. That discovery opened a new occasion for the brand. A Mixly flavor can go into a dirty soda, a mocktail or a cocktail. The drink changes; the mixer stays the same. In June 2026, the company changed its name from Mixly Cocktail Co. to Mixly Beverage Co. The broader name reflects products and occasions beyond the bar cart, including dirty soda and coffee. The expansion has brought Mixly into major retailers. Five flavored syrups launched at 685 Walmart stores. The company expects its dirty soda products to reach nearly 4,000 stores by the end of November, and two holiday kits launched at 1,300 Target stores and online. Mixly says its products are now available in approximately 4,600 retail locations nationwide. For Rossbach, that growth connects back to the idea the founders had from the beginning: Make something flavorful that people can share, whether they’re drinking alcohol or not. The market is catching up to that versatility, but it took hand-squeezed fruit, a rented kitchen and plenty of decisions without a map to get Mixly here. When she first launched Mixly, Rossbach had an ultra-premium product line and a very specific idea of what the business would look like. But she quickly learned that what you think customers want isn't always what they actually want. The team listened, made adjustments and became more comfortable pivoting as they learned what was working and what wasn't.  That willingness to change has helped refresh the brand, expand beyond cocktail mixers and grow into opportunities they never would have imagined when they were squeezing limes in a kitchen at 3 a.m. Shop classic mixers, dirty soda syrups and limited-edition flavors below.

Shooting from a moving vehicle, the gunman allegedly targeted people at random, injuring civilians as well as police during the attack on Kraków's bustling Main Square. Video posted on social media showed people running while gunshots rang out. Police shot and wounded the suspect during a gunfight and the area is now secured, according to authorities. TEEN WEARING HELMET CAMERA KILLS WORKER AT POLISH SCHOOL AMID FEARS OF COPYCAT ATTACKS The suspect, who has only been identified by police as a "citizen of the Republic of Poland," was wearing military-style fatigues and used a military-style rifle to carry out the attack, Katarzyna Cisło, a spokesperson for the Kraków police, told Polish network TVN24. Authorities also found numerous other weapons and ammunition in the suspect's car, Cisło said. GUNMAN KILLS 6 AT YOUTH WELFARE FACILITY IN SUSPECTED CHILD CUSTODY DISPUTE: REPORTS Małopolska Police released a statement Saturday afternoon denying reports that a police officer died and that another perpetrator is being sought. "The only known perpetrator of the incident is in police custody," officials said. A public train driver reported around 3 p.m. local time that his vehicle had been shot by a man in a moving car, shattering his window. GUNFIRE SHATTERS TORONTO LATIN STREET FESTIVAL, LEAVING AT LEAST 2 DEAD AND MULTIPLE WOUNDED Police vehicles, ambulances, and a Polish Medical Air Rescue helicopter surrounded the scene at Main Square, which is located in the country's second-largest city. Polish Police said in a statement on X, "in connection with the tragic incident that occurred in Kraków, National Police Commander Inspector General Marek Boroń is heading to the scene." Polish leaders reacted to the scene in a series of public statements on social media. 'NOT ON OUR WATCH': GLOBAL LAW ENFORCEMENT LEADERS UNITE IN POLAND AGAINST HATE "My deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of the victims of the tragic attack in Kraków. My highest praise for the heroic police officers who risked their lives. And a heartfelt appeal to politicians of all stripes: do not exploit this tragedy. We will establish all the circumstances of this crime," Prime Minister Donald Tusk wrote in a statement posted to X. Tusk also assured the public that police are investigating the background and details of the attack. POLISH PRESIDENT TURNS PLANE AROUND AFTER 'COUP' AT NATION’S TOP COURT Poland's president Karol Nawrocki also weighed in. "I am deeply concerned by reports of the tragic events in central Kraków. My thoughts are with the victims, those injured and their families. I remain in contact with the relevant services and expect a full explanation of the circumstances surrounding these tragic events," he wrote on X. HUNGARY AND POLAND DEFEND TOUGH MIGRATION POLICIES AS FRANCE REELS FROM VIOLENT UNREST Nawrocki also revealed that the head of Poland's National Security Bureau is on his way to the city to investigate. The United States Ambassador to Poland, Tom Rose, shared sympathies in a post on X. "We are just learning details of the horrific mass shooting in Kraków, a savage and murderous attack that’s shattered the peace of Poland," Rose wrote. "America stands with Poland at this dark hour as Poland stands with her beloved citizens of Kraków." Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy described the shooting as "shocking," in a statement on X, also extending condolences to the victims' loved ones. "There can be no justification for this attack, and we trust the perpetrator will face justice," Zelenskyy wrote. "We wish strength and a speedy recovery to the injured and to everyone affected by this tragedy. Ukraine stands in solidarity with Poland and the Polish people. People have the right to safety."

The Maricopa Devils’ 9U tackle team defeated the TarHeels 14-8 to claim the Division One title, following a Division Two championship last season. The team is made up of 9- and 10-year-olds competing in the Pop Warner league. This season brought together players and coaches from multiple youth programs, including several players new to tackle football. “It was great watching the kiddos learn, adapt and become the best players they could possibly be,” said Sheena Jenkinson, the team’s mom for the 9U squad. The Devils are advancing to regional competition in California, with games expected next weekend. The location had not been announced at the time of the interview. The team also welcomes community support through donations and business sponsorships to help cover participation costs for families. Maricopa Water and Ice provided water for players during game days this season, Jenkinson said. For the young players, another opportunity to compete for a championship is reason enough to celebrate. “They are just excited to go,” Jenkinson said.

The holiday-season buzz is especially visible around Costco's pumpkin pie, a Costco staple that Edelblum said benefits from the retailer's bulk purchasing and in-house bakery production.

He was 55. The cause and manner of Sanft's death has not yet been determined. Police told the Las Vegas outlet that the death did not appear suspicious. Michael Sloan, a close friend who rode motorcycles with Sanft, according to the report, confirmed his death and remembered the attorney as a devoted friend.

A Nevada jury found Davis guilty of first-degree murder with the use of a deadly weapon in August. He was sentenced Oct. 13 to 40 years to life behind bars, according to The Associated Press. The verdict marked a significant development in a case that has drawn international attention for nearly three decades. LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING?

Prosecutors argued Davis orchestrated the killing after his nephew was involved in a fight with Shakur and Knight earlier that night. During closing arguments, prosecutor Binu Palal told jurors Davis obtained a gun and "went hunting" for the two men. Prosecutors also pointed to Davis' own statements placing himself inside the Cadillac used in the shooting.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef5b6ebcfe2a61c5f4c2ba Relationship expert explains why people ghost and what they may regret later te 2026-11-07T17:10:06.699Z Relationship expert explains why people ghost and what they may regret later If you've ever dated someone who stopped reaching out and responding to texts, without any conversation about ending the relationship, you’ve been ghosted. "Ghosting," or the sudden absence or unresponsiveness of a potential partner, is more than just feeling ignored by someone you’re interested in, according to Monica Ricci, a Georgia-based relationship coach — it's a complete disappearance without closure. Why do people ghost? Ricci suggested it’s a "classic avoidance behavior."  "It's the same reason we procrastinate — we're avoiding some kind of discomfort," she said. THE MARRIAGE WARNING SIGN THAT MAY BE WORSE THAN FIGHTING — AND 4 WAYS TO TURN THINGS AROUND "It could be a fear of having a really hard conversation. It could be not wanting to disappoint a person," Ricci went on. "Someone could ghost because they just don't care enough. They're just not invested enough that they believe it [would] warrant communicating to say, ‘Hey, this isn't working for me.'" Those who do the ghosting may feel a sudden sense of relief, according to Ricci, but may also have lingering guilt around how the relationship was left unfinished. A new paper based on three studies, published in Sage Journals, suggests people who are ghosted underestimate the guilt and remorse felt by those who cut off contact. 5 MARRIAGE MISTAKES COUPLES MAKE WITHOUT REALIZING IT — AND HOW TO AVOID THEM "There's a part of you that may know that wasn't the best way to handle it," Ricci said. "And so it may stay with you a lot longer because it calls into question the kind of person you want to be." It’s easy to take ghosting personally, she noted. "But the truth is, if you're being ghosted, it says more about the person who ghosted you and their ability to have honest communication, their ability to step up in an uncomfortable situation and really choose their behavior over their discomfort." After a ghosting, the brain will automatically begin searching for patterns and answers to "make things make sense," Ricci said. WHY COUPLES SHOULD FLIRT WITH EACH OTHER EVERY DAY — PLUS THE ‘RED FLAG’ TO AVOID At some point, moving forward means accepting that you may never get an explanation and recognizing that being ghosted is not a reflection of your worth, according to the expert. "If a person can't have a conversation with you at the beginning of a relationship that is honest and frank, they probably weren't your person anyway," she added. Ricci, whose expertise is based on the Gottman Method — an approach to couples therapy focused on building emotional intimacy, improving communication and managing conflict — said seemingly difficult conversations can be easier than people expect. CLICK HERE FOR MORE HEALTH STORIES "When you want to communicate that this dating relationship is not a good fit anymore, it's easiest to be very direct and brief," she said. This can be as simple as sending a text saying, "I have enjoyed getting to know you. I'm not feeling the kind of connection that I need to move forward, and I wish you all the best in finding a great match." "You're honest, you're truthful, you're not making it about them being a bad person," she said. "You're saying, ‘I'm just not feeling the kind of connection I need to move forward.'" CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTER Although being forthright is the respectful option, it's not possible to control how the other person will feel or react, Ricci noted. "And this is sometimes where the ghosting comes from – we don't want to make someone feel bad," she said. "It’s this illusion that we have some control over how a person feels … But the reality is the least painful and kindest option is to just be direct." TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ However, in a situation where you are being harassed, stalked or abused, ghosting may be the safest option, Ricci emphasized. "If someone is treating you really poorly, or harassing you, or stalking you … ghosting is absolutely the most appropriate," she said. "Cutting a person off completely, not responding, is the safest, smartest way to go."

Eric Edmeades, founder of Speaker Nation, a training platform for speakers that teaches presentation skills and more, told Fox News Digital this week that his father Baz, who was in his late 70s and struggling with a combination of medical problems, began discussing Canada's Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) program after his health deteriorated in late 2023. But what Edmeades expected to be a months-long process suddenly accelerated, leaving the family with little time to prepare. I'M 25 WITH A TERMINAL DISEASE. WE NEED AN FDA COMMISSIONER THAT HEARS PEOPLE LIKE ME Edmeades said the family started taking the issue seriously in January, but at that stage, projections were that it would take at least six months. He and his wife traveled to Vancouver at the beginning of 2024 to visit his father. At that stage, it was still a speculative thing that was months away. "And then all of a sudden it was like, ‘No, it's next week,’" Edmeades recalled. His father died via MAiD on Feb. 27, 2024. He had been experiencing a sharp decline in his physical health and independence, particularly during the COVID-era lockdowns, according to his son. "He had been incredibly healthy most of his life," Edmeades said, describing a combination of symptoms that included epilepsy and neurological pain. Edmeades also questioned whether interactions between his father's medications could have contributed to his deteriorating condition. "When the lockdowns came along, and he could no longer go out and walk all the time, it really had a marked decrease in his physical ability and his sense of freedom and all that kind of stuff," he said. "And then there just came this point where life started sounding pointless to him," Edmeades said. CATHOLIC NUNS SUE NEW YORK, SAY ASSISTED SUICIDE LAW FORCES THEM TO VIOLATE THEIR FAITH Edmeades said his father had previously spoken about suicide, making his initial interest in medically assisted dying less surprising to the family. "Given that it wasn't the first time that he talked about suicide in his life, it wasn't particularly shocking, but he also wasn't talking about it in really alarmist terms. So, I wasn't overly worried about it," he said. Edmeades and his wife had already planned a trip to Vancouver and were able to spend time with his father before his death. "And one of the things I'm incredibly grateful for is that I had incidentally booked a trip out to Vancouver, and my wife and I got to spend time with him," Edmeades recalled. He thought he and and his wife would have another opportunity to visit. NEW YORK NUNS' CHALLENGE TO ASSISTED SUICIDE LAW IS ABOUT PROTECTING FREEDOM, LAWYER SAYS Edmeades said he was not in contact with his father's medical providers at the time and did not fully understand what had happened until afterward. "It happened so quickly that I only really started to piece together what happened when it was done," he said. Other family members and friends had also expressed concerns about his father's decision, according to Edmeades. He recalled that his brother openly opposed the decision and that one of his father's close friends spent approximately 45 minutes discussing the matter with him during his final days. "At that stage, you know, for him, the decision was made," Edmeades said. The experience has left Edmeades questioning whether Canada's assisted-dying program has adequate safeguards. He acknowledged that there may be circumstances in which medically assisted dying is appropriate but argued that Canada's implementation has gone too far. "What I see happening in Canada is way past appropriate," he said. Edmeades also raised concerns about the government's role in overseeing the system, arguing that decisions about eligibility should be insulated from political influence and potential financial incentives. "If I had to press a button and decide whether the MAiD program existed or didn't exist, I would say this," Edmeades said. "It should only ever exist if, and I mean if the process for approving people, it would be completely independent of government, and there could be no benefit to those people in making that preference in making that decision. Because otherwise there's a slippery slope, and we see that slippery slope." According to the Government of Canada, individuals seeking medical assistance in dying (MAiD) must be at least 18 years old, capable of making their own medical decisions, and eligible for publicly funded healthcare. They must also voluntarily request the procedure without outside pressure and provide informed consent. To qualify, applicants must have a serious, incurable illness, disease or disability, be experiencing an advanced and irreversible decline in their abilities, and face persistent physical or psychological suffering they consider intolerable and that cannot be relieved in a way they find acceptable. The government also announced legislation on Oct. 27, 2026, that would allow advance requests while preventing the planned expansion of MAiD eligibility to people whose sole underlying medical condition is mental illness. According to the BBC, Canada’s MAiD law, which legalized euthanasia in 2016, is responsible for one in every 20 deaths in Canada. NEW YORK NUNS WILL NOT BE FORCED TO COMPLY WITH ASSISTED-SUICIDE LAW WHILE CASE PROGRESSES A report from the Canadian Medical Association Journal covered by EWTN News claimed that implementing assisted suicide will "save" the Canadian healthcare system between $34.7 and $136.8 million per year. The study noted that patients and physicians should not consider costs when making such grave decisions. In a statement to Fox News Digital, Ian McLeod, senior advisor for media relations and Conseiller principal for the Department of Justice Canada, said, "Canadian law is extremely clear: medical assistance in dying (MAID) requires a voluntary request, freedom from external pressure, and the person’s informed consent, among other stringent eligibility criteria and safeguards. Knowingly failing to comply with these eligibility criteria and safeguards is a criminal offence." McLeod continued, "In the current MAID structure found in Canada’s Criminal Code, the mental illness exclusion is meant to exclude eligibility for MAID on the basis of a mental illness, including suicidal ideation. The proposed amendment to the mental illness exclusion in Bill C-41, the proposed Medical Assistance in Dying Safeguards Act, which was introduced on October 27, 2026, is meant to reinforce this." McLeod added, "This is why the Bill reinforces that, in situations where a person has a mental illness and an eligible medical condition (e.g. physical or neurodegenerative illness), eligibility must be determined on the basis of the qualifying medical condition. A mental illness may contribute to a person’s suffering, but it cannot be the basis for determining that the MAID eligibility criteria are met. Importantly, having a mental illness does not, in itself, make a person ineligible for MAID." McLeod said that patients whose natural deaths are not reasonably foreseeable must undergo eligibility assessments by two independent doctors or nurse practitioners, with at least 90 full days between the start of the first assessment and the assisted death. That waiting period, according to McLeod, can be shortened if both assessments are complete, both practitioners agree the patient is at imminent risk of losing the ability to consent, and the practitioner providing MAiD determines that a shorter period is appropriate. McLeod emphasized that federal requirements establish minimum safeguards, while provinces and territories oversee how MAiD is administered and may impose additional protections. He said questions about the program's oversight and delivery should therefore be directed to provincial or territorial authorities.

If it were in the SEC. Quite the spin! TIM BRANDO JOINS DAN DAKICH ON 'DON'T @ ME' TO DISCUSS INDIANA COACH CURT CIGNETTI'S CFP 'BIAS' COMMENTS Now, to be fair, Illinois is having a decent season. The Fighting Illini are coming off a 24-13 win over Nebraska Friday night, and sit at 6-3 as the regular season begins its final month. It's been a good year for Illinois up to this point. Credit where it's due, Bielema has the fellas playing well in 2026. For some reason, though, the SEC continues to be on the brains of every Big Ten coach in America right now. Earlier this week, Curt Cignetti took a shot at the conference after the initial CFP rankings was overloaded with SEC teams. BRET BIELEMA ROASTS NICK SABAN, SEC, AT BIG TEN MEDIA DAYS: 'THEY WANT TO LIVE IN 2005 FOREVER' After last night's win, Bielema joined the chorus, saying his unranked Fighting Illini would be in the mix if they played in the SEC. Take a look: "But to be in this job, where we’re at right now, 6-3, we beat another 5-3 team. If we were in the SEC, we’d probably be a top-15 team." Thoughts? First impressions? So, Bielema is correct in the fact that if Illinois was currently 6-3 and played an SEC conference schedule, it would be ranked. Not sure it would be a top-15 team, but certainly ranked. I guess it depends who the wins/losses came against. But also, if Illinois played in the SEC ... I'm not sure the Fighting Illini would be a 6-3 team right now. Their current wins have come against: One ranked win probably doesn't cut it. Now, Illinois' three losses? Purdue, Duke, and Ohio State (42-19). It doesn't feel like an "SEC schedule," at least not this season. The wins aren't impressive, beyond beating an Oregon team that has no business being ranked with Dante Moore out. As for Bielema's actual record in the conference he can't get off his brain ... He went 11-29 against the SEC over four years at Arkansas, including 0-8 in his first season. Not saying that was completely his fault because that roster certainly wasn't his, but the numbers are still the numbers. And the numbers say Bret Bielema's current team would be nowhere close to 6-3 in the SEC right now. It's a down year for the Big Ten. Let's just be honest for a second. That conference has dominated this sport for a few years now, but it's just a down year. It happens. Ohio State lost its starting QB. Oregon did, too. Penn State stinks. Michigan stinks. Indiana is currently ranked fourth, but needed overtime to beat both Michigan AND Minnesota. Everyone wants to complain about the committee showing "SEC bias" in the initial batch of rankings earlier this week. That's fine. That's fair. But the options weren't great.

While Baltimore did trade for Jacoby Brissett to hopefully put an end to their signal-caller woes, rumors have begun swirling around one of the team’s stars: running back Derrick Henry. The NFL trade deadline is on Tuesday, and some were of the belief the Ravens would at least listen to trade offers for the 32-year-old veteran back – a team that could be one piece like Henry away from a complete squad ready for a Super Bowl run. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE But the Ravens think otherwise, telling teams that Henry is not available before the Nov. 10 deadline, per ESPN. The speculation surrounded two of Henry’s former head coaches, with John Harbaugh and the New York Giants reportedly in the aggressive buying stage, and running back is where they seem to be looking. The Giants are among those very interested in Jonathan Taylor with the Indianapolis Colts. New England Patriots’ Mike Vrabel could’ve also been a good spot for a Henry reunion, especially given that TreVeyon Henderson was just hospitalized after suffering "unexplainable" neurological symptoms. THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW! Henry is a key cog in making this Declan Doyle-led offense work for the Ravens, but it hasn’t looked that way among recent quarterback injuries, most notably to two-time MVP Lamar Jackson. Jackson dealt with a high-ankle sprain before a much-needed return last week against the Buffalo Bills. However, on his first snap of the game, his throwing hand collided with Bills pass rusher Greg Rousseau’s hand. He was placed on the injured reserved after needing surgery to repair his thumb. So, Tyler "Snoop" Huntley had to resume his role as the team’s starter, doing so in the games Jackson missed earlier in the season. But Huntley suffered a turf toe injury in the same Bills matchup, knocking him out for the remainder of the season. That led to emergency quarterback Joe Fagnano, a rookie out of UConn, taking over in a 36-10 loss to the Bills. The Ravens made the move to trade for Brissett after the Arizona Cardinals benched him in the second half of a comeback win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 8, where head coach Mike LaFleur gave the reins to Gardner Minshew, and later named rookie Carson Beck his backup entering Week 9. But Brissett’s arrival in Baltimore wasn’t going to come before "Thursday Night Football" against a very good Jaguars team. With steady rain coming down, the Ravens’ offense couldn’t get anything going with Fagnano under center, and now the team hopes Brissett can keep them competitive enough to battle for a playoff spot. There is still a chance Jackson will be returning post-thumb surgery, but he’s forced to miss the next four games on the IR. At 4-5, the Ravens needed Brissett to hold down the fort at least, with Baltimore losing by at least 20 points in their last three games. All of this to say, the Ravens need a running threat like Henry if they wish to salvage the season that is starting to slip away. "I have not mentioned me going anywhere else," a frustrated Henry said following the loss. "I’m saying, ‘Let’s go back to work. Let’s try to get better and turn this thing around.’" SIGN UP FOR THE DAILY OUTKICK NEWSLETTER Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef5463bcfe2a61c5f4c153 Dad of Copilot in Deadly Plane Crash 'Wanted to Be By Her Side' te 2026-11-07T16:40:03.740Z Dad of Copilot in Deadly Plane Crash 'Wanted to Be By Her Side' Copilot Nathalia Filgueiras was one of nine who died when a Learjet aircraft crashed in Florida.

Unbeaten Utah hosts BYU in a top-10 Holy War at noon ET, and Alabama heads to Death Valley to face LSU in the afternoon. Fanatics Sportsbook is offering new users promo code FOXNEWS350 to bet $20 and get $350 in FanCash on either game. The Holy War rarely carries stakes like this. Utah is unbeaten, with recent wins over Cincinnati, Houston, Colorado and Kansas, and a victory keeps the Utes squarely in the College Football Playoff picture. BYU has one loss, a 39-31 setback at UCF, but it also owns a 28-24 win over Notre Dame and comes in fresh off a 27-20 win over Arizona State behind quarterback Bear Bachmeier. Recent history belongs to the Cougars. BYU has won the last three meetings after Utah took nine straight before that, and all three of those games landed between 42 and 45 total points. Odds are subject to change Utah is the better team on paper, but this is a rivalry BYU has owned lately, and the recent games have been decided by small margins. Nearly a touchdown is a lot of cushion in a game that should be a grind. Both teams come in at 6-2, and both know a third loss would put their playoff hopes in serious danger. LSU has won four of its last five, including a 38-17 win at Auburn, with its only recent slip a 35-34 loss at Kentucky. Alabama has bounced back from back-to-back losses to Georgia and Tennessee with a 31-20 win over Texas A&M. The quarterback battle is between Alabama’s Keelon Russell and LSU’s Sam Leavitt. Alabama won last year’s meeting 20-9 in Tuscaloosa and has won 15 of 23 matchups since 2004, but this one is in Baton Rouge at night-game volume. Odds are subject to change LSU has momentum and home field, but Alabama has dominated this series and gets more than a field goal. In a game this close on paper, take the points with the Tide. Two rivalries, two top-tier SEC and Big 12 showdowns and one Saturday. New users can bet $20 on Utah vs. BYU or Alabama vs. LSU and get $350 in FanCash with Fanatics Sportsbook promo code FOXNEWS350.

It opens with a top-10 Holy War in Salt Lake City and closes with unbeaten, No. 1 Miami visiting Notre Dame under the lights in South Bend. Underdog is offering new users promo code FOXNEWS to play $10 and get $50 in bonus entries on any college football game, including both headliners. Utah is unbeaten and playing with Big 12 title and College Football Playoff stakes on the line. BYU has one loss but also owns a 28-24 win over Notre Dame, and the Cougars have won the last three Holy Wars after Utah won the nine before that. Those three BYU wins share a pattern: all of them landed between 42 and 45 total points. This rivalry tends to be physical and close, not a shootout. Odds are subject to change Pick: Bear Bachmeier passing yards (lower). BYU’s quarterback gets an unbeaten Utah defense on the road in a rivalry that has run low-scoring. Expect both teams to lean on the ground game and keep possessions long. Miami is 8-0 and ranked No. 1, and it’s still a road underdog. The Hurricanes have been scoring at will, putting up 52 on Pittsburgh, 43 on Florida State and 41 at Clemson, before escaping North Carolina 38-35 last week. Notre Dame is 7-1, perfect at home and looking for revenge after Miami beat the Irish 27-24 in last season’s opener. The Irish’s only loss came at BYU. Odds are subject to change Pick: Darian Mensah passing yards (higher). Miami’s quarterback has been running one of the most explosive offenses in the country, and the Hurricanes haven’t been held in check by anyone yet. Notre Dame’s defense is the best Miami has seen, but in a game where the Canes may have to chase, Mensah should get plenty of volume. Alabama visits LSU at 3:30 p.m. ET in a matchup of 6-2 SEC rivals, giving you another strong option between the two headliners. From noon to late night, Saturday has it all.

Betr is offering new users promo code FOXNEWS to unlock $200 in bonuses and four free picks for one of the best Saturdays of the season. BYU at Utah, 12:00 p.m. ET: Utah is unbeaten with Big 12 and playoff stakes on the line, but BYU has won the last three meetings, all in games that totaled between 42 and 45 points. Alabama at LSU, 3:30 p.m. ET, ABC: Both teams are 6-2, and a third loss would put either one in serious playoff trouble. LSU has won four of five, while Alabama snapped a two-game skid by beating Texas A&M. Miami at Notre Dame, 7:30 p.m. ET, NBC: The Hurricanes are 8-0 and No. 1, yet they’re road underdogs in South Bend. Notre Dame is 7-1, unbeaten at home and still smarting from last year’s 27-24 loss in Miami. Odds are subject to change Keelon Russell passing yards (higher) | Alabama at LSU: Russell has shown he can carry Alabama’s offense through the air, including a 311-yard, three-touchdown performance earlier this season. LSU’s crowd will be loud, but with the total sitting at 54.5, the books expect points, and Alabama will need its quarterback to keep pace on the road. Rico Scott receiving yards (higher) | Alabama at LSU: If Russell is throwing, Scott is the main beneficiary. He went for 156 yards on six catches in the same game Russell lit up, and he’s Alabama’s most dangerous downfield threat. In a game this close on paper, the Tide will look to hit big plays. Sam Leavitt passing yards (higher) | Alabama at LSU: The other side of the same shootout. LSU has been putting up points, including 38 at Auburn and 63 against McNeese, and Leavitt will be asked to answer Alabama’s passing attack at home. Javian Mallory rushing yards (lower) | Miami at Notre Dame: Here’s the contrarian play. Miami’s offense runs through quarterback Darian Mensah and the passing game, and Notre Dame’s defense is the toughest the Hurricanes have seen. Expect the Irish to sell out against the run and make Miami win through the air, which leaves Mallory with a tough path to his number. Between the three headliners, the Saturday slate is packed with conference games in every window, giving you plenty of options to build around once your four free picks are locked in.

SEC-leading Kentucky goes to Knoxville at 6:15 p.m. ET, and Georgia visits Ole Miss at 7:30 p.m. ET in a rematch of last season’s College Football Playoff quarterfinal. Underdog is offering new users promo code FOXNEWS to play $10 and get $50 in bonus entries on both games. Kentucky is the surprise of the SEC. The Wildcats are 7-1, 5-1 in conference play and alone in first place, and they’ve done it by winning close games. They beat LSU 35-34, won 35-34 at South Carolina and went to Oklahoma and won 21-13. They also come in rested after a bye week. Tennessee is 6-2 and coming off a frustrating 27-24 loss at South Carolina. The Vols have a statement win of their own, a 26-10 beating of Alabama, and they crushed Kentucky 56-34 last season. The Wildcats haven’t won in Knoxville since a 34-7 rout in 2020. Odds are subject to change Pick: Adam Zouagui kicking points (higher). Kentucky’s games keep coming down to the wire, and Zouagui has been clutch, including the game-tying field goal at South Carolina. On the road in a hostile environment, drives that stall in Tennessee territory turn into field goal tries. Close SEC games are decided by kickers, and this one should be close. This rivalry has gotten personal. Georgia beat Ole Miss 43-35 in Athens last October, then the Rebels knocked the Bulldogs out of the playoff, 39-34 in the Sugar Bowl. Ole Miss has a new head coach after Lane Kiffin left for LSU, but quarterback Trinidad Chambliss is back and the Rebels are rolling after a 45-15 win over Auburn. Georgia has had a bumpy run through the toughest stretch of its schedule, including a 27-24 loss to Auburn, but Gunner Stockton has been one of the most efficient quarterbacks in the SEC. Odds are subject to change Pick: Trinidad Chambliss passing yards (higher). Ole Miss has thrown for more than 300 yards per game this season, and Chambliss is the engine. At home, at night, against a Georgia team that’s been tested in the secondary, expect the Rebels to air it out. Pick: Gunner Stockton passing yards (higher). The other side of the same shootout. A 56.5 total tells you the books expect points, and the last two meetings between these teams produced 78 and 73. Stockton will need to keep pace in a loud building.

Georgia visits Ole Miss at 7:30 p.m. ET in a rematch of last season’s Sugar Bowl, and unbeaten Miami takes on Notre Dame in South Bend at the same time. Fanatics Sportsbook is offering new users promo code FOXNEWS350 to bet $20 and get $350 in FanCash on either game. The No. 1 team in the country is an underdog. Miami is 8-0 and has been putting up points all season, with wins over Clemson, Florida State and Pittsburgh behind quarterback Darian Mensah. The Hurricanes needed a late push to get past North Carolina 38-35 last week, but they haven’t lost. Notre Dame is 7-1 and unbeaten at home, with its only loss a 28-24 defeat at BYU. The Irish also have revenge on their minds after Miami beat them 27-24 in last season’s opener. A cold November night in South Bend is a very different setting than Hard Rock Stadium in August. Odds are subject to change The Pick: Miami +5. This is the contrarian spot of the weekend. The market is treating the unbeaten No. 1 team like a pretender because it’s going on the road. Miami has the more explosive offense, it beat this same team a year ago, and it’s getting nearly a touchdown. Notre Dame’s home edge is real, but five points is too many. Take the Hurricanes. These two keep meeting in big spots. Georgia won 43-35 in Athens last October, and then Ole Miss sent the Bulldogs home from the playoff with a 39-34 win in the Sugar Bowl. Lane Kiffin is now at LSU, but quarterback Trinidad Chambliss returned to Oxford, and the Rebels just rolled Auburn 45-15. Georgia’s season has been less smooth than usual, with a 27-24 loss to Auburn sandwiched into a brutal stretch. Gunner Stockton remains one of the steadiest quarterbacks in the SEC, but Oxford at night is one of the hardest road trips in the conference. Odds are subject to change The Pick: Ole Miss +3. Georgia’s name carries weight in the betting market, but Ole Miss has won two of the last three meetings, plays at home and has the quarterback who beat the Bulldogs in January. A field goal is enough cushion for a home underdog with that kind of history. Back the Rebels. Both picks come down to the same idea: the public is backing the bigger brand, and the value sits with the team getting points.

The lifestyle mogul, 85, admitted her decision to dress as a person experiencing homelessness was "stupid," and revealed that her grandson had warned her about the outfit before the public criticism began. "According to my grandson, I was tone-deaf," Stewart said while explaining how the controversial costume came together during a Friday appearance on the "Today" show. MARTHA STEWART ADDRESSES BACKLASH AFTER DRESSING AS HOMELESS PERSON FOR HALLOWEEN Stewart's Halloween costume featured ripped jeans, a distressed shirt and a cardboard sign reading "I AM HUNGRY. HELP ME!!" During a discussion about lessons learned on the morning show, she acknowledged that she needed to be more mindful and "pay closer attention to social issues. Be aware." The businesswoman said she cares deeply about the challenges facing Americans but acknowledged that her costume was a mishap. "But I made a mistake. I mean, I was stupid. Yeah. What else can I say? What else can I say? I'm so sorry," Stewart said. MARTHA STEWART GETS CANDID ABOUT PLASTIC SURGERY, DATING AS SHE TURNS 85 She also asked her fans and the public to forgive her, saying, "I hope that my followers and my fans and the rest of America forgives me for doing something that was not meant in any way to be a bad thing." The longtime television personality said she put together the costume at the last minute after initially deciding not to dress up for Halloween. A chocolate stain on her white sweater also helped inspire the last-minute costume, Stewart said. She joked that "Today" co-anchor Craig Melvin was responsible for the stain before clarifying that she was only kidding. In her initial statement to Page Six, Stewart said the costume was not meant to mock people experiencing homelessness. "I am distressed that my Halloween costume yesterday, which was intended to bring more awareness to the very serious subject of homelessness, has offended people, which was never my intention," she said.

Apparently, professional athletes know that feeling, too. Tennis star Sorana Cirstea lost 6-2, 6-3 to Alexandra Shubladze in the quarterfinals of the Hong Kong Open on Friday night and shocked the tennis world by retiring from the sport immediately after the match. Cirstea, 36, was the No. 1 seed at the Hong Kong Open and the 15th-ranked player in the world. She came into the season saying 2026 would be her final year on tour and decided to follow through with that plan after the upset loss. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE "Given how things ended here in Asia, with several early losses, I think the decision is pretty clear," Cirstea said in the press zone, according to Tennis Temple. "I was running on empty, I had no energy left. It's been a long year. I need to step back and process all of this before making a final announcement, which should come in a few weeks." Unlike many people who rage-quit their jobs because they are fed up, Cirstea was thriving. Her No. 15 ranking was the highest of her career.

Cirstea became just the fourth woman age 36 or older to finish a season ranked among the world's top 16 in the last 40 years, joining Martina Navratilova, Serena Williams and Venus Williams. In May, Cirstea defeated then-No. 1-ranked Aryna Sabalenka at the Italian Open and was already receiving pleas from fans to keep playing. "Everyone has been asking me, like, ‘You cannot retire, you cannot retire!’" Cirstea said in May at the Italian Open, according to the New York Post. During her career, the Romanian tennis player has won four singles titles and earned more than $13 million in prize money, according to the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) website.

On the heels of their historic win across the state, Democratic lawmakers announced Friday that Sen. Priya Sundareshan, D-Tucson, will be the president of the Arizona Senate where Democratic lawmakers will hold the majority for the first time since 1992. “We heard you loud and clear. Arizonans rejected partisan extremism and chose a new direction,” Sundareshan said in a statement. “I am proud of what we accomplished together during my time as minority leader, and I’m ready to lead us into the next chapter.” Democrats are expected to grow from a minority of 13 members in the Arizona Senate to 20 members, giving them a supermajority.  Democratic and Republican members of the Arizona House announced who will be taking leadership roles for their caucuses earlier in the day and as of Friday evening, Republicans had not announced who will take the minority leadership roles in the Senate.  Current Senate President Warren Petersen unsuccessfully ran for attorney general and it is unclear who will take his place come January when lawmakers return.  When lawmakers do return, in the Senate, Democrats Christine Marsh, of Phoenix, will take the role of majority leader with Sen. Analise Ortiz, also of  Phoenix, becoming majority whip.  Democratic Sens. Alma Hernandez, and Edgar Soto, both of Tucson, will both be president pro tempore while Sens. Rosanna Gabaldón, of Green Valley, and Aaron Lieberman,  of Paradise Valley, will serve as the majority chairs.  In a statement announcing the appointments, Sundareshan said they will not take the trust voters put in them for granted and intend to focus on lowering the cost of living in the state.  “We’re united in our commitment to earn your trust every day by delivering results you can feel in your daily life,” Sundareshan said. “That means lowering costs for working families, keeping our communities safe, and giving every Arizonan a fair shot at getting ahead. Wherever you live and whoever you voted for, we’re here to work for you. The post Tucsonan Sundareshan to be next Arizona Senate president appeared first on AZ Luminaria.

Here's the cure te 2026-11-07T15:10:04.808Z MARK PENN: The midterms revealed a nation of unhappy capitalists. Here's the cure America is suffering from having too many unhappy capitalists. Indeed, in the Fox News poll of voters, 75% said the economy was not so good or poor. And 44% said their economic conditions were deteriorating rather than improving. America is a nation obsessed with and reeling from increases in the cost of living. It is a bit odd because inflation has come down from 9% a year under President Biden to about 3% a year under President Trump, while economic growth and employment are excellent by any normal standard. We even have the lowest poverty rate in American history. And yet people are unhappy, and on Tuesday they voted for the people who were responsible for the lion’s share of inflation and who spent 10 years and $2 trillion on measures designed to increase the cost of gasoline and other fossil fuels. FOX NEWS POLL: SQUEEZED BY COSTS, FRUSTRATED VOTERS TURN TO THE DEMOCRATS And they also elected six new members of the Democratic Socialists of America to Congress this week, bringing their total to at least eight members advancing radical economic redistribution. But when socialism was directly on the ballot on November 3, it failed. The California wealth tax, which would start a new era of taxation on wealth — a direct confiscation of property — went down in flames, with 57% or more rejecting it. RADICAL SOCIALIST WING'S HUGE NIGHT REVEALS ASCENDING CLOUT WITHIN DEMOCRATIC PARTY And in that same Fox News poll, 56% of respondents viewed capitalism favorably and 32% unfavorably. For socialism, 33% viewed it favorably and 53% unfavorably; the rest didn’t know enough to say. So, capitalism had a 23-point net advantage in favorability. When asked in another Fox News poll whether moving the U.S. away from capitalism toward socialism would be good or bad, 38% said good and 61% said bad. LEE CARTER: SOCIALISM MEANS TWO WILDLY DIFFERENT THINGS TO REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS And interestingly, in a recent Harris poll, young people at first said they were for socialism but then said they wanted to own their own businesses and homes and be paid not equally, but according to their merits. SOCIALISM'S GROWING APPEAL MEETS AN AWKWARD REALITY CHECK ON COLLEGE CAMPUS So deep down, most of these socialists are really just capitalists drafted into a movement they know little about, fed by a stream of TikTok videos. Indeed, the social media platform itself is a form of capitalism, with people paid according to their clicks. Imagine the uproar if we declared tomorrow that all TikTok creators would make the same amount and that we were confiscating 5% per year of the followers of influencers with over 1 million followers. That would be the end of social media as we know it, given the uproar. CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINION So maybe socialism is in vogue, and some socialist candidates are slipping into Congress. But make no mistake, they are getting beaten when their proposals are isolated and put on the ballot. Capitalism still trumps socialism, and if you call it free enterprise, it soars another 15 points. So what we really have right now is a lot of unhappy capitalists who see themselves as having trouble buying a home, a car or other ingredients of middle-class life. The numbers suggest otherwise, but there is no arguing with their belief that the economy is not on their side. But the real fix to these problems lies in policies far simpler than socialism — lower interest rates, lower taxes, more U.S. energy production and affordable health care without a big government takeover.

The unusual discovery was announced by the Austin Police Association (APA), which represents Austin police officers, earlier in October. In an Instagram post, the APA said the resident purchased several boxes at the estate sale and discovered what appeared to be WWII-era grenades while going through them. MYSTERY SURROUNDS GERMAN SOLDIERS FOUND NEAR MUD-COVERED WWII MOTORCYCLE IN DANUBE "APD's Bomb Squad confirmed they were live and active," the post said. Austin Police Department (APD) officers secured the scene and established a perimeter to protect nearby residents while awaiting explosives specialists, according to the association. The bomb squad recovered five grenades, according to Sgt. Issa Kafena, the supervisor of the APD Bomb Squad. Kafena told Fox News Digital that, though officers could not determine exactly when the grenades were manufactured, they appeared to be about 80 years old. TEXAS ROAD CONSTRUCTION UNEARTHS 'COLOSSAL' PREHISTORIC REMAINS OF 'BIG OL' ANIMALS' The buyer seemed to recognize the potential danger and contacted authorities. "I believe the person was former FBI, so [they] immediately kind of took precautions to make sure everything was safe, called 911, and patrol responded and then immediately called us," he said. Despite their age, Kafena — who did not personally respond to the incident — warned that the grenades still posed a danger. RARE CANNONBALL EMERGES FROM GROUND AT THE ALAMO, LIKELY UNTOUCHED FOR NEARLY 190 YEARS "All ordnance ... there's an inherent danger to any and all of it, especially if it's military ordnance," Kafena said.  "It's designed to hurt and kill people." He added that the grenades could have injured someone had they functioned as designed. Though the APA described the incident as an "unusual call," Kofina said discoveries of old military explosives are not entirely unheard of by authorities. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTER "It's more common than you think," Kafena said. The officer said the bomb squad handles over 400 deployments annually, including approximately 150 to 175 call-outs, many of which involve discovered military ordnance or equipment. "In this region, we cover 8,400 square miles in the 10-county capital area of government's region," he said. "And we go all over the central Texas area for calls like this fairly frequently." Once the grenades were recovered, bomb squad officers safely disposed of and destroyed them, Kafena said. CLICK HERE FOR MORE LIFESTYLE NEWS Above all, Kafena urged anyone who discovers old military explosives to leave them undisturbed and contact authorities immediately. "If you ever find it, don't touch it, call 911 immediately and have the bomb squad come out and help address the situation," he said. TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ The Austin discovery is not the only recent case of military ordnance turning up in unexpected places. Last fall, a father and son unexpectedly discovered more than 150 World War II-era artillery shells while metal detecting in a Czech forest, prompting a two-day bomb squad operation.

A fight over English lit turned her conservative te 2026-11-07T15:10:02.816Z DEPROGRAMMED: She entered Columbia a liberal. A fight over English lit turned her conservative The sharp flick of textbook pages, the smell of studied parchment and a litany of knowledge surrounded Liza Libes during her time at Columbia University, an experience she entered as a bright-eyed, liberal freshman, before leaving a conservative with a deep commitment to free speech. "I was very upset with my suppression of speech. You know, I'm a writer. The biggest thing to me is the ability to be able to say what you think, to write what you think. And I wasn't able to write exactly what I thought in my English classrooms," Libes told Fox News Digital. "I would get Cs when I would argue in favor of the patriarchy. And then when I argued that, you know, so-and-so was subverting gender norms, then I would get an A… It was just this kind of gradual accumulation," she continued. OKLAHOMA STUDENT FLUNKED BY TA AFTER TOUTING CHRISTIAN BELIEFS IN GENDER ESSAY, DIRECTS OTHERS TO ‘PUSH BACK’ Libes detailed an experience she had during an English class involving an assignment about Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream," in which her professor said the play centered on "queer desire." Libes, the founder of the Substack "Pens & Poison," disagreed. "I just wrote about the play, I didn't touch on queer desire. She took off a couple points from my exam because I didn't mention queer desire in the class for the midterm. So I thought that was a very bizarre thing for her to do," she said. "There [were] a couple other professors [that] I really disagreed with in terms of the way that they were teaching literature, the way they were kind of creating this Marxist ideology from a lot of literary works and kind of thrusting the Marxist teachings on so many great works of literature," Libes continued. LIBERAL FACULTY STILL HUGELY OUTNUMBER CONSERVATIVES IN HIGHER EDUCATION: REPORT "I felt very stifled as a writer and I think that that was kind of my last straw," Libes added. "I wanted to be in a place where I could just… express my values, express my beliefs in writing and also in conversation… By the time I was a senior, I very much identified with the conservative movement," she continued. Libes received a master's degree in English and comparative literature in 2020, after earning her bachelor's degree in English literature in 2019. When asked about the campus environment beyond the classroom, Libes described an underlying "expectation" to hold "certain viewpoints," saying she knew she was going to be "socially ostracized in some way." FORTY-FIVE PERCENT OF COLLEGE STUDENTS SAY VIOLENCE CAN BE JUSTIFIED TO STOP HATE SPEECH, POLL FINDS Libes grew up in what she called a "post-Soviet household," speaking Russian with her immigrant parents and grandmother. "One of the things that was very big in my household was just this idea of freedom, right, because my parents had come from the Soviet Union, there was a lot of oppression there," she said. "Obviously, we did not like socialism because socialism was one of the ways that a lot of this oppression was perpetrated. And I thought of myself always as a liberal because I stood for freedom. I was against oppression, I was, you know, pro-free speech — those to me were very liberal ideas, those were the ideas that I grew up with in my household," Libes continued. 30% OF COLLEGE STUDENTS SAY VIOLENCE ACCEPTABLE WAY TO STOP SPEAKERS ON CAMPUSES, SURVEY FINDS "When I got to Columbia, I very quickly realized that those ideas were no longer part of the left, that the left liked to suppress speech, the left liked to ostracize anyone who didn't hold, you know, certain opinions or beliefs," she added. Libes encourages other young people to stand by what they believe. "Don't be afraid [of] expressing your beliefs and don't let, kind of, peer pressure or other people sway you into believing one thing or another," Libes said. Columbia University did not respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

Bishop has brought a unique element to the ring that MLW has been looking for – someone who has a dangerous aura about them. The roster has a few guys who can do that, but there’s just something different about Bishop and the way he has carried himself through nearly 11 months. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK PRO WRESTLING COVERAGE MLW owner Court Bauer recognized what Bishop had done this year. "He's one of those guys that's just been a breakout player for us," Bauer told OutKick Dropkick. "He has that danger element to him. He's just a machine, just a wrecking machine. And I believe that there's, you know, you want familiarity, you want those guys. ‘Hey, I know that guy, he has a huge following on social media or he was at this company and he was on that TV show.’ "But what fans love is the next generation and when someone can bring it and be at the same level as that other guy across the ring from him, like Killer Kross and Josh Bishop's done that and then some whether the night he rag dolled him in New York City and pinned him or when they tore up the ring in Chattanooga, Tennessee, in MLW." Bishop challenged Kross for the title earlier this year but fell short. MLW'S COURT BAUER TOUTS 'HUGE YEAR' FOR COMPANY AMID MEDIA DEALS, SPLASH MOVES He’s come all the way back and even scored a pin on Kross in a tag team match. It’s helped him earn his latest shot, which will come at Saturday Night SuperFight. "All these things leading to this Last Man Standing match this weekend in Cicero in Chicago," Bauer added. "It was all just incredible. He made his case to headline the pay-per-view and I'm like, man, you're punching your ticket, you earned it, you get it, because guys that phone in, they don’t. They're not making the card. The guy that didn’t, they're getting that spot, and he earned that spot. "You gotta bring it, and if you can bring it. I don't look at wrestling like, let's just cast them because that's the story we're telling and that's, you know, OK, we're with a creative team, we're writing and that just sounds like the right story. You listen to the crowd and you look at the effort of the guys in there that are just leaving it all in that ring. Josh Bishop this year did that and then some. He should be in that match. He should get that opportunity." It all comes down to Saturday Night SuperFight. The event begins at 8 p.m. ET and can be seen live on Veeps.

The Coast Guard announced on Nov. 3 that MSC Poesia had been detained due to deficiencies with systems aboard the ship. "The Coast Guard cannot currently comment on the specifics of an ongoing Port State Control Examination, but we have identified deficiencies with systems on board the vessel that we are addressing with MSC," said Capt. Frank Florio, commander, U.S. Coast Guard Sector Miami, in a press release issued by the Coast Guard. OUTRAGED CRUISE PASSENGERS BLAST COMPANY'S 'IDIOTIC' NEW DRESS CODE CRACKDOWN The MSC Poesia will remain detained at the Miami port until the deficiencies are fixed and the ship is cleared to depart, the release added. "We have made the difficult decision to cancel the current sailing," an MSC Cruises spokesperson told Fox News Digital about the situation. "We recognize how disappointing and frustrating this news is for our guests, and we sincerely apologize for the disruption to their holiday." "Prior to departure, a regulatory matter arose that required resolution. Despite our efforts to address the matter, we were unable to resolve it in time for the sailing to proceed," the spokesperson added. "Guests will receive a full refund of their cruise fare, and we are providing support to assist with their journey home." CRUISE TIPPING CHARGES ARE 'OUT OF CONTROL.' SAY PASSENGERS AS COMPANIES TOUT 'EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE' The Coast Guard said its Port State Control program inspects foreign-flagged commercial vessels calling at U.S. ports to ensure they meet applicable safety, security and environmental standards. "When substantial noncompliance is identified, the Coast Guard may detain a vessel until the deficiencies that prevent its departure are corrected," the release said. More than 2,000 people were aboard when the ship was detained, according to the blog "Cruise Critic." The MSC Poesia was scheduled to leave Miami on Nov. 1 and return Nov. 12, with stops in Jamaica, Colombia, Panama, Costa Rica, Honduras and Belize, according to CruiseMapper. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTER Alex Perez, a maritime attorney at the Miami law firm Lipcon, Margulies & Winkleman, told Fox News Digital it's very rare for a cruise ship carrying thousands of people to be detained rather than cited. Cruise ships in U.S. ports are inspected frequently, Perez said. But "the fact that this cruise ship was detained with passengers on board when [it was] about to embark on its voyage tells you the Coast Guard found something significant enough to warrant a detention." Perez said the U.S. Coast Guard has the authority to inspect and board vessels in U.S. ports. CLICK HERE FOR MORE LIFESTYLE STORIES "A lot of cruise ships are foreign-flagged. That doesn't change the Coast Guard's authority over them," he said. In addition to a canceled vacation, many passengers worry about the price of additional airfare, accommodations and lost paid time off from work. Perez said cruise passengers can file claims, but no class-action lawsuits are permitted. The binding passenger ticket contract issued by all major cruise lines explicitly prohibits class-action lawsuits. Under the universally enforced terms, passengers waive their right to join group litigation, according to the MSC USA Booking Conditions document. "Cruise ship contracts prohibit class actions," Perez said. "So in a case like this ... they cannot do class actions to group themselves together and make it easier for the passenger to get relief," he said.  TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ Several people took to online forums to discuss what happened. "We have been on board the MSC Poesia since 28 September," said one Reddit user. "During dinner, we noticed we had not left the harbor at the given time," the MSC passenger continued. "Although we’re disappointed that the last part of our extended back-to-back cruise was canceled, we appreciate the compensation MSC has offered and the practical help they’re providing to get us home," the poster added. "Must have been a heck of an error for [the] Coast Guard to keep them from sailing," another person commented.  "I assume someone will spill the beans on what the problem was eventually."

Kevin Castro and Harrison Magnus were both arrested Monday by the University of New Mexico Police Department after attending a Turning Point USA event on campus, according to KRQE. While court documents didn't name the event, the university's TPUSA chapter hosted a "Prove Me Wrong" event that day featuring Students for Life of America President Kristan Hawkins. Video posted online by the Turning Point USA chapter shows Magnus appearing to yell at the crowd as he's being taken away by police officers who placed him in handcuffs. UTAH STUDENT CITED AFTER PHYSICAL ALTERCATION WITH COLLEGE REPUBLICAN CAUGHT ON CAMERA Castro allegedly hurled a lacrosse ball toward the crowd, nearly striking someone, according to court documents. He was arrested on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, disorderly conduct, and conspiracy. Magnus was allegedly talking to Castro regarding plans to throw objects into the crowd, and was arrested on charges of conspiracy, disorderly conduct, and concealing identity. A University of New Mexico spokesman confirmed the arrests to Fox News Digital and said the school supports free expression but won't tolerate violence or unlawful behavior on campus. "UNM remains committed to providing a safe, healthy and inclusive environment for all who learn, work and live on our campuses," the spokesman said.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef3393bcfe2a61c5f4bac0 Newsom’s death-row commutations spark DA revolt as prosecutors warn of legal fight te 2026-11-07T14:20:03.935Z Newsom’s death-row commutations spark DA revolt as prosecutors warn of legal fight At least a dozen California district attorneys are publicly condemning Gov. Gavin Newsom’s plan to commute all 548 death sentences in the state, arguing the sweeping move overrides juries, disregards victims’ families and defies the will of state voters. Newsom announced the plan Thursday, saying state-sanctioned killing is incompatible with California’s values. The move would convert the sentences to life without parole, though 382 cases still require approval from at least four California Supreme Court justices, according to the Associated Press. In response, prosecuting attorneys across California have raised concerns about victims’ rights, the governor’s constitutional authority and the role of the California Supreme Court in reviewing hundreds of the commutations. "Justice requires case-by-case consideration, not one-size-fits-all decisions," Sacramento County District Attorney Thien Ho said in response to Newsom's action. THREE STATES CARRY OUT EXECUTIONS ON SAME DAY AMID RENEWED DEATH PENALTY DEBATE Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer described the move as "mercy for the wolves" that inflicts "the ultimate act of cruelty on the sheep." Spitzer noted that regulations implemented by California’s Board of Parole Hearings on Oct. 1 allow thousands of prisoners serving life without parole to become eligible for parole, arguing that Newsom's latest death row commutations could put these inmates "one step closer" to release. Newsom’s office says, however, that the affected prisoners will remain in prison and are not eligible for release. "The Governor is attempting to appear courageous with this decision. He is not courageous. His commutations are solely based upon power and political aspirations," added San Bernardino County District Attorney Jason Anderson, who accused Newsom of caring more about politics than people. "Courage would require speaking with crime victims and the surviving family members of the people murdered by these death row inmates." CALIFORNIA SUED OVER POLICY THAT COULD FREE SERIAL KILLERS AS LACI PETERSON'S FRIEND SOUNDS ALARM Anderson cited the case of Kevin Cooper, a California death-row inmate convicted of killing Josh Ryen’s parents and sister, along with Ryen’s friend, Chris Hughes, and leaving Ryen for dead. Anderson said Newsom had not contacted Ryen or Hughes’ mother, Mary Ann Hughes, to ask their views on a possible commutation — and that Ryen has never received a call from the governor. "Courage would require the Governor to follow Marsy’s Law, California’s constitutional rights belonging to victims of crime," Anderson continued. "He has not. I am not aware of any victims’ family members receiving notice of these commutations from the Governor." Meanwhile, Anderson and several other California prosecutors who spoke out against Newsom's death row commutations also framed the dispute as a challenge to the jury system and an override of the will of California voters. They said jurors in each case heard the evidence, weighed all the necessary factors and decided whether death was warranted, with judges and appellate courts later reviewing those verdicts. Newsom’s blanket action, they argue, substitutes one statewide decision for hundreds of individualized judgments. NEW YORK BILLS COULD ABOLISH LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE FOR SERIAL KILLERS AND COP KILLERS, CRITICS WARN "A single order commuting all of them would set aside hundreds of individualized judgments without examining the facts of even one," San Luis Obispo County District Attorney Dan Dow said. "It invalidates the exhausting, emotionally wrenching work of our citizens who sat on juries, weighed horrific evidence, and delivered lawful verdicts. Most unforgivably, it is a slap in the face to victims and their families," said San Joaquin District Attorney Ron Freitas. "This decision does not bind wounds; it tears them wide open, all over again." The prosecutors pointed out that California voters rejected death-penalty repeal initiatives in 2012 and 2016 while approving Proposition 66 in 2016, which changed procedures for challenging death sentences and was promoted by supporters as a way to speed up the process. The district attorneys argued Newsom’s blanket action overrides those ballot-box decisions without repealing the law. "A blanket commutation is a mass erasure of justice. It overrides the will of California voters who have repeatedly defended capital punishment at the ballot box," Freitas added in his response to Newsom's action. Some California prosecutors who spoke out against Newsom's controversial move signaled that the dispute may not end with public statements. San Diego County District Attorney Summer Stephan said her office was "researching any lawful remedies" that would allow victims’ voices to be heard and considered, while Kern County District Attorney Cynthia Zimmer was more direct, saying, "This assault on justice will be challenged." SIGN UP TO GET THE POLITICS NEWSLETTER Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman acknowledged that commuting existing sentences falls within the governor’s constitutional authority, but said, "That power does not extend to eliminating the death penalty. Only the Legislature or the voters can do that." Newsom’s clemency announcement clarifies that it "does not repeal the death penalty" and is limited to commuting California’s current death sentences. Fox News Digital reached out to Newsom's office for comment but did not hear back in time for publication.

As Bill Belichick would say, we're on to the playoffs. That's right. Hard to believe, but the postseason is underway for a large portion of the country, with everyone else to follow suit next week. Over the next few weeks, champions will be crowned all over the place. INSANE ILLINOIS HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL GAME SEES 172-POINT EXPLOSION BEFORE DARKNESS FORCES VENUE CHANGE Feels like we just started this journey back in August, and here we are — less than three weeks from Thanksgiving — ready to jump into the postseason. Time flies when you're having fun! I've taken it upon myself here at OutKick to highlight at least one high school football play/ player/ story each and every weekend during the season. These guys are all about to be millionaires with the silly NIL rules, so we might as well get ahead of the curve and start identifying them early. It's been quite a ride. No matter how old you get, nothing beats high school football. In a world of NIL deals, it's the last pure form of amateur athletics left. So far this season, we've seen a wild Hail Mary in Florida, an entire California team get suspended because the mascot shot the bird to some fans, a giant running back in Kentucky smashing heads, the best running back in the nation out of Tennessee, and just last week, an 88-84 playoff game out of Illinois. 88-84! Today, let's head out to South Dakota (FOOTBALL COUNTRY!) and check in on the wildest walk-off touchdown I've personally ever seen. Check out the IQ on this kid: Just the best. Again, it doesn't get much better than high school football. You guys can have your Saturdays and Sundays. Give me a Football Friday any day of the week. The best part? That game-winner was for a trip to the 9A state title game in South Dakota. Lordy. What a feeling! Let's dive in ... I count three laterals before the final touchdown, which, frankly, isn't a ton. It's a pretty tame play in terms of laterals. Pretty short and simple. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE Until, of course, you get to the kid at the end who made a 200 IQ decision to win the game when he acted like it was an incomplete pass. The defense was lulled to sleep and started to celebrate, only for this genius to then scoop the ball up and race down the sidelines for a game-winning score. The ball was very clearly thrown backwards, so there was no real question. The defense obviously had a different angle, so perhaps it looked like a forward pass to them. But that doesn't matter. You play to the final whistle. You put a helmet on a helmet, and a hat on the ball until the ref makes you stop. Just because the receiver stopped playing doesn't mean you stop playing. He doesn't make that decision — the ref does. And how about the stones on the kicker to make that extra-point with everything on the line? Extra points in high school football are no gimme, by the way. I'd say you'd get at least one miss a game, if not more. So this wasn't a layup, and the kid buried it. Warrior. PS: I hate to point this out, but how about the kid who caught the initial pass getting lit up like a Christmas tree after tossing it back? He was hit so hard, the crowd audibly groaned. Patriot.

I know I would. But that's exactly what's happening in Japan, where a towering chainsaw robot is cutting back branches that could interfere with passing trains. It's a little intimidating to watch, especially when you see how high this machine can reach. Still, there's a pretty good reason railway crews are putting it to work. Japan's JR East railway company is using the chainsaw robot to handle dangerous maintenance jobs that would normally require workers to operate heavy cutting equipment high above the ground. The robot does the physical work while a person controls its movements from a safer location. I find that reassuring, especially when a chainsaw is involved. So how does this unusual machine actually work, and could it change the way dangerous maintenance jobs get done? Missed CyberGuy LIVE?

No technical experience is needed. Watch the free replay and downloadable checklist now at CyberGuyLive.com. HUMANOID ROBOTS PERFORM LIVE SURGERY IN WORLD FIRST The robot has been put to work along JR East's Koumi Line in central Japan, where overgrown branches can create problems for passing trains. What's interesting is how the machine actually handles the cutting. One mechanical arm grips a branch while the other operates the chainsaw. The robot's upper body extends from a boom mounted on a specialized maintenance vehicle, allowing it to reach high above the tracks. That means workers can tackle branches that would normally require someone to operate cutting equipment at height. The robot even has a name, ZIZAI ZX-3. Japanese manufacturer Nippon Signal announced its delivery to JR East earlier this year. The machine began full-scale maintenance work along the Koumi Line in October. And this technology already has some experience behind it. JR West started using a related robotic system in July 2024. What's especially appealing about this approach is that the machine takes on the dangerous physical work while a trained operator stays at a safer distance. Now, before you start worrying about robots running around with chainsaws, the ZX-3 is actually controlled by a person. A trained operator guides the robot remotely, deciding where to position its arms and when to start cutting. That's important because working near railway tracks requires careful attention. One wrong move could damage equipment or put someone in danger. So while the robot handles the heavy lifting, a human still makes the decisions. Nippon Signal designed the ZX-3 to make it easier for workers to control the robot's movements. Right now, its main job is cutting back trees and branches that grow too close to railway lines. However, the company hopes to give it additional tools so it can handle other maintenance work in the future. And here's what I find interesting. Workers still need the skills to do the job, but now they can operate the equipment from a safer location. That's a pretty big change when you're talking about working high above train tracks with a chainsaw. Keeping train tracks clear takes more work than you might realize. Branches can grow close enough to interfere with passing trains, and cutting them back sometimes means sending workers high above the tracks with heavy equipment. That brings some serious safety risks, especially when crews are working near electrical infrastructure. Japan is also dealing with a shortage of skilled workers, so JR East is looking for ways to make these jobs safer and less physically demanding. That's where the chainsaw robot comes in. It can reach areas that would be difficult or dangerous for workers to access while the operator stays at a safer distance. JR East is also changing when some of this work gets done. Since 2022, the company has been moving certain maintenance jobs along the Koumi Line into daytime hours instead of having crews work overnight. That sometimes means temporarily canceling trains, which I'm sure passengers aren't thrilled about. But it also gives workers better conditions and more manageable schedules. And when you combine that with a robot that can handle dangerous cutting work, you can see why JR East is investing in this technology. NEW AI BRAIN LETS ROBOTS MOVE LIKE HUMANS Now this is where I start having a few more questions. JR East has been investing in artificial intelligence and robotics across its railway operations. The company is exploring ways to use AI for equipment inspections and other maintenance activities. Its broader technology plans include robots that can help inspect infrastructure. That raises an interesting possibility. Could a future version of this chainsaw robot identify an overgrown branch and cut it without someone guiding every movement? It's certainly a direction robotics developers could explore. AI-powered image analysis could help identify vegetation that threatens railway operations. More advanced systems might eventually assist with some of the decisions an operator makes today. But there's an important difference between what might be possible and what JR East has actually announced. The ZX-3 currently relies on human control, and JR East has not announced a timeline for making its chainsaw operation fully autonomous. Personally, I think that's worth emphasizing. Giving a robot greater independence sounds impressive until you consider what happens if it misidentifies an object or someone enters its working area. We recently covered how humanoid robots are getting new workplace safety systems. Those safeguards will become even more important as machines take on jobs involving powerful tools. You may never see this particular chainsaw robot working near your local train station. However, the technology behind it could eventually change how infrastructure gets maintained closer to home. If you ride commuter trains, you already know how frustrating delays can be. Overgrown vegetation can contribute to service disruptions, and railway companies spend considerable time keeping tracks clear. Equipment that helps crews perform those jobs safely and efficiently could eventually benefit passengers. There are potential applications beyond railways, too. Utility companies regularly need to trim vegetation around power lines. Construction crews also handle dangerous work in areas that are difficult to reach. Remotely operated machines could help reduce some of those risks. Of course, there's another side to this. As robots become more capable, companies will need workers who know how to operate and maintain them. That could create opportunities for new skills while changing the way traditional maintenance jobs are performed. And while robots can reduce certain dangers, they bring their own safety concerns. A machine handling a chainsaw still needs reliable controls and proper oversight. For now, the ZX-3 shows how robotics can help people perform hazardous work without placing them directly in the path of danger. ONE OF THE WORLD'S HOTTEST INDUSTRIES IS SPARKING A BLUE-COLLAR JOBS BOOM I've seen plenty of humanoid robots doing backflips and showing off what they can do. But there's something different about watching one actually earn its keep. Seeing this robot handle a chainsaw high above the tracks makes me think about the risks workers face doing that job themselves. And if it can help keep railway workers out of dangerous situations, I am all for it. What I especially like is that there's still a person making the decisions. The operator brings the experience while the machine takes on the physically demanding work. That seems like a sensible way to introduce robotics into jobs where mistakes can have serious consequences. What I'll be watching is how quickly companies push these machines toward greater independence. AI is advancing, and I suspect we'll see more robots taking on jobs that once seemed impossible to automate. But when the tool in a robot's hand is a chainsaw, I want to know someone is paying very close attention. Would you trust a fully autonomous robot to operate a chainsaw near the trains you ride?

That’s according to new research released by the American Heart Association, which will be presented at the AHA Scientific Sessions in Chicago, November 6–9, 2026. A retrospective observational analysis looked at more than 28,000 reports submitted to the FDA of cardiovascular events, including cardiac arrest, myocardial infarction (heart attack), ventricular arrhythmias (abnormal rhythms), palpitations, tachycardia (rapid heart rate), chest pain and syncope (fainting). EVEN OCCASIONAL MARIJUANA USE LINKED TO HIGHER STROKE RISK, STUDY FINDS Cardiac arrest appeared in reports involving caffeine- and stimulant-containing products about 11 times as often as in reports involving products without those ingredients. Heart attacks were reported about 4.5 times as often, while ventricular arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms) or palpitations were reported about four times as often, according to the AHA. Elevated heart rate, chest pain and fainting were also increased among the group consuming those substances. Approximately 45% of reported cardiovascular events associated with stimulant products involved adults ages 18 to 34. The stimulants included in the study were caffeine, methylxanthines, guarana, yerba mate, synephrine, yohimbine and other compounds. They were consumed in products such as soft drinks, meal replacement shakes, protein bars, smoothies and vitamins. Colin Kane, M.D., pediatric cardiologist and service chief at Children's Health and professor at UT Southwestern Medical Center, said the findings build on earlier case reports about potential heart risks from high caffeine intake. "We've known through case reports and anecdotal evidence that caffeine in high amounts can be potentially dangerous to people with underlying heart conditions and even those who have normal hearts," Kane, who was not involved in the study, told Fox News Digital. WHY STACKING SUPPLEMENTS WITHOUT A BLOOD TEST FIRST CAN DO MORE HARM THAN GOOD It is generally safe for adults to consume up to 400 mg of caffeine per day, which equates to up to five 8-ounce cups of regular black caffeinated coffee, according to a 2026 American Heart Association Scientific Statement on caffeine and cardiovascular disease. "Some energy drinks have up to three times more caffeine per fluid ounce than brewed coffee, and some pre-workout supplements have more than 12 times as much," senior study author Dr. Pamela Benavidez, a cardiothoracic anesthesiologist at Fairfield Medical Center in Lancaster, Ohio, told Fox News Digital.  "This means one small serving can easily surpass the advised daily limit or more." Benavidez also warned that these products often include other stimulants like synephrine, yohimbine and methylhexanamine. "These can interact with caffeine in ways that are not fully understood, especially in young, healthy people," she said. YOUR DAILY COFFEE HABIT MAY AFFECT YOUR BRAIN AND MOOD IN UNEXPECTED WAYS, STUDY FINDS The researchers recommend that young people carefully monitor their consumption of caffeine and watch for heart-related symptoms, such as palpitations, chest pain or tightness, lightheadedness, fainting, or a racing or irregular heartbeat during or after use of these products. "If you notice any of these symptoms, seek medical help right away," Benavidez advised. "If you have a known heart condition, a family history of sudden cardiac events, or take medications that are classified as stimulants or can affect your heart rate/rhythm, you should talk to your doctor before using these products at all." Kane identified people with underlying heart conditions, particularly those with potentially dangerous heart rhythms and older adults with coronary artery disease, as groups needing particular awareness. "And there's a whole group of people who may have an underlying heart condition that they're not diagnosed with yet," he added. The findings are preliminary and have not yet been published as a full peer-reviewed manuscript. As the study was observational, it could only show an association and could not prove that the products caused the cardiac events. CLICK HERE FOR MORE HEALTH STORIES "We don't know how many people consumed these drinks and didn't report symptoms or those who maybe had symptoms and didn’t report them," Kane said. Also, as the FDA reports were voluntary, they may contain incomplete, inconsistent or selectively submitted data. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTER It is possible that other factors, such as alcohol or drug use, strenuous exercise and undiagnosed heart conditions, may have contributed to the cardiovascular events. "Anytime you're mixing stimulants and other substances or medications, it can certainly bring up a potential for harm," Kane said. The American Beverage Association, based in Washington, D.C., sent the below statement to Fox News Digital in response to the study. "Energy drinks have been enjoyed by billions of people around the world for more than 30 years and are recognized as safe by government food safety agencies worldwide. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Health Canada, the European Food Safety Authority all relied on the highest quality science when they determined that a moderate daily intake of 400 milligrams of caffeine from all sources is safe for adults." "Energy drinks have less caffeine than coffeehouse coffee and no regulatory agency has found that their other ingredients interact harmfully with caffeine," the statement concluded. TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ Andrea Wong, chief science officer of the Council for Responsible Nutrition in Washington, D.C., also reacted to the study’s findings. "Because the analysis does not account for how many consumers actually used these products, whether they were overused or misused, or even the amount of caffeine (or other ingredients) per serving, it cannot determine the incidence of cardiovascular events or quantify the associated risk," she told Fox News Digital. "Importantly, the reported 11-fold difference in cardiac arrest reporting does not mean consumers are 11 times more likely to experience cardiac arrest."

Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., based on a report from a state board suggesting she filed joint tax returns in 2014 and 2015 with a man she was not legally married to, according to a letter obtained by Fox News Digital. The letter was sent after the Minnesota Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board issued a report on June 6, 2019, indicating that Omar had filed joint tax returns in 2014 and 2015 with Ahmed Hirsi, despite being legally married to another man, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, at the time. The joint tax returns came up during the Minnesota Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board’s examination of a $1,500 expense associated with Omar’s campaign committee. The board was investigating whether the expenditure was a legitimate campaign-related expense or whether campaign funds had been used to pay for services that benefited Omar personally. The payment was part of a larger $2,250 reimbursement to the Kjellberg Law Office for legal and other services. ILHAN OMAR ISSUES STUNNING ADMISSION WHEN CONFRONTED WITH BROTHER MARRIAGE RUMORS In response to the board’s questions, Omar’s campaign committee explained that the Kjellberg Law Office had retained the accounting firm Frederick & Rosen to obtain and review financial records as part of the campaign committee’s efforts to respond to allegations surrounding Omar’s marital history. According to the committee’s explanation, Frederick & Rosen prepared releases for Omar and Ahmed Hirsi to sign, so the firm could obtain copies of their filed joint federal income tax returns for 2014 and 2015 from the IRS. The board concluded that the committee had not demonstrated that the $1,500 expense benefited the campaign and required Omar to reimburse the committee.  JD VANCE SAYS DOJ LOOKING INTO IF ILHAN OMAR COMMITTED IMMIGRATION FRAUD AMID BROTHER-MARRIAGE ALLEGATIONS Omar married Hirsi in 2002 in their Muslim faith tradition and that they ended their relationship in that tradition in 2008, Newsweek reported. She then legally married Ahmed Nur Said Elmi in February 2009, according to public records, as reported by Newsweek. According to divorce documents obtained by Fox News Digital, Omar legally divorced Elmi in December 2017. Carla Kjellberg, a lawyer for Omar and her campaign committee, stated during the board proceedings that Frederick & Rosen’s services provided "some personal benefit to Rep. Omar," because "there was an issue with her tax returns that needed to be corrected regardless of her status as a candidate," according to the board’s report. In a letter to then-IRS Commissioner Charles Rettig dated Aug. 6, 2019, the state lawmakers asked the IRS to undertake a review in light of the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board report. "Due to recent developments, I believe probable cause exists for an investigation into Rep. Omar's tax filings," read the letter, signed by Minnesota state Reps. Steve Drazkowski, Linda Runbeck, Glenn Gruenhagen, Shane Mekeland, John Poston, Eric Lucero, Duane Quam, Tim Miller, Cal Bahr and Jeremy Munson. Drazkowski told Fox News Digital that the IRS never responded to the request. The IRS did not respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. Fox News Digital could not confirm whether the IRS followed through with the lawmakers’ request. Federal tax confidentiality rules generally restrict what the agency can disclose about individual taxpayers. The Minnesota Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board issued its findings on June 6, 2019, following two complaints filed by Drazkowski. Although the board required Omar to repay the $1,500 that her campaign had paid the Kjellberg Law Firm for Frederick & Rosen’s services related to the tax returns, it rejected the allegation that this money was payment for Omar’s personal divorce proceeding, in which Kjellberg also represented her.  The board also required Omar to repay campaign funds used for certain travel expenses, including trips to Boston, New York and Washington, D.C. Following the board's 2019 findings, Omar said she was "glad" the process was complete and welcomed the board's determination regarding allegations that she had improperly used campaign funds for personal expenses. However, she did not address the portion of the board’s report concerning the joint tax returns she submitted with Hirsi. Omar did not respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment. In a separate letter obtained by Fox News Digital, the Republican state lawmakers, led by Drazkowski, asked Cynthia Bauerly, then-commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Revenue, in August 2019 to review Omar's joint tax filings. Drazkowski said neither Bauerly nor the Minnesota Department of Revenue responded to the lawmakers' request. The Minnesota Department of Revenue did not respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. The letter from the lawmakers urging the state and federal tax reporting agencies to investigate Omar’s joint tax filings came two months after Drazkowski urged Rep. Angie Craig, D-Minn., to refer his concerns about Omar's tax filings to the House Ethics Committee. As previously reported by Fox News Digital, Craig told Drazkowski in a letter that he could submit information himself to the Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE), which was renamed to the Office of Congressional Conduct in 2021. The congressional ethics process allows members of the public and lawmakers to submit information concerning alleged misconduct, although the independent ethics office and the House Committee on Ethics have separate procedures. In late October, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said on Fox News that the federal investigation into Omar regarding potential immigration and marriage fraud had been referred to the Department of Justice (DOJ) as a "large case" that targets multiple individuals rather than just one person. The DHS did not respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment on whether the investigation is looking into the 2014 and 2015 joint tax filings flagged by the state lawmakers in 2019.

"We congratulate all the winners, and we will work with all the winners," Jewish Federation of Detroit CEO Steven Ingber told Fox News Digital. "The Jewish voice and Jewish vote is not monolithic, meaning, we have people who voted on every side of the aisle on all the races up and down the ballot. And the beauty of being a 501(c)(3) is we don't get to take an opinion and we just get to work with whoever then is elected." The Jewish Federation is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit, meaning it cannot endorse political candidates or participate in political campaigns on behalf of or in opposition to candidates. Instead, it works with elected officials from across the political spectrum to support Jewish communities. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN STUDENTS RALLY BEHIND ABDUL EL-SAYED AFTER HIS SENATE WIN OVER MIKE ROGERS For Ingber, the key is understanding that people have varying reactions to elections, something he said has happened before and will likely happen again. "I think it's all about unity," he told Fox News Digital. "There'll be an election again in two years. There was an election two years ago. People were upset then, people were happy then. And I think that's the beauty of our system right now is — America will go on." Throughout his campaign, El-Sayed faced criticism from Jewish leaders and voters who were concerned about his stance on Israel and ties to controversial figures. One remark in particular that struck many Jews the wrong way was El-Sayed's response to the March 2026 attack on Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Mich. According to the FBI, Ayman Mohamad Ghazali drove a truck containing commercial-grade fireworks and containers of flammable liquid into Temple Israel on March 12. Ghazali died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound during an exchange of gunfire with synagogue security personnel, investigators said. Following the attack, El-Sayed said, "Hurt people, hurt people," drawing criticism. He later apologized and told Fox News Digital that his comments "might have been misconstrued to be justifying something I did not intend to justify." EL-SAYED’S HASAN PIKER PROBLEM FOLLOWS HIM TO DEM CONVENTION AS JEWISH VOTERS BREAK RANKS Democratic strategist Julian Epstein told Fox News Digital that Democrats have been inconsistent when opposing bigotry, particularly when Jews are the targets. "If you believe in civil rights, right? If you believe [in] pluralism, if you believe in dignity for all, if you're against bigotry, then you don't do it for one group, but not for another, or accept it for another or capitulate on it for others. Because then you really don't believe in the civil rights. You just believe in group preferences at that point," Epstein said. Epstein predicted that El-Sayed's victory could mean a broader shift among Jewish voters, who have long been a reliable Democratic base. "I think there's no question that Jewish voters are going to start leaving the Democratic Party," Epstein told Fox News Digital. "They should. I mean, why would you stick with a party that openly tolerates hate directed at you?" The American Jewish Committee's Detroit chapter (AJC Detroit) acknowledged the historic significance of El-Sayed's election as the first Muslim elected to the U.S. Senate but expressed concern about his public statements. ABDUL EL-SAYED DELIVERS MAJOR BLOW TO GOP IN MICHIGAN AFTER BRUISING SENATE RACE "We recognize the historic significance of Dr. El-Sayed becoming the first Muslim elected to the U.S. Senate, a milestone that reflects the promise of American democracy. As a Jewish organization, we understand the profound importance of seeing one’s community represented in government," AJC Detroit's statement read. "Unfortunately, this historic moment has been tarnished by the Senator-elect’s continued anti-Israel rhetoric that alienates countless Jewish Michiganders and other supporters of the State of Israel, and endangers American Jews." "As a U.S. Senator, El-Sayed will have the responsibility to represent all Michiganders.

"Antisemitism isn't a Jewish problem, it's an American problem." He said Jewish Americans should not retreat from public Jewish life because of rising antisemitism or political divisions. "Antisemitism and people who don’t want us to succeed in life are not going to stop us from being who we are," Ingber said.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef232cbcfe2a61c5f4b863 9 mystery fingerprints from OJ Simpson murder case could hold new clues more than 30 years later te 2026-11-07T13:10:04.225Z 9 mystery fingerprints from OJ Simpson murder case could hold new clues more than 30 years later Nine fingerprints that went unidentified during the original OJ Simpson murder investigation could hold new clues more than 30 years later — and one filmmaker believes advances in forensic technology could help reveal who left them behind. Ari Mark co-directed the Peacock docuseries "OJ's Accomplice," which reexamines the 1994 murders of Simpson's ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman. The series explores the theory that the former NFL star may not have acted alone, focusing on convicted drug trafficker and Simpson associate Joey Ippolito, who reportedly had ties to organized crime. Mark told Fox News Digital he wants investigators to consider reexamining nine fingerprints recovered from the crime scene that could not be matched to any known samples during the original investigation. NICOLE BROWN SIMPSON TOLD FORMER LOVER SHE'D 'RATHER DIE' THAN RETURN TO O.J. SIMPSON BEFORE HER MURDER "The fact that there's nine fingerprints sitting around that nobody wants to put through a system that's very updated and technologically not what it was before, that just seems unnecessary," Mark said. "Just do it." "You can take latent prints and analyze those in a way that you couldn't before," Mark continued. "Also, remember, the systems over time are obviously collecting more data and more people. So, if you're looking for a match, you have a greater chance of getting one all these years later." In 1995, the Los Angeles Times reported that none of the identifiable fingerprints investigators collected at the Bundy Drive condominium where Brown Simpson and Goldman were murdered matched Simpson. Fingerprint specialist Gilbert Aguilar, a defense witness, testified that police knew that Simpson's fingerprints did not match the identifiable prints recovered at the crime scene. Under questioning by lead defense attorney Johnnie Cochran Jr., Aguilar testified that nine prints found at Bundy Drive could not be matched to any known sample. According to the Los Angeles Times, Simpson's lawyers argued that unknown attackers committed the murders and that detectives failed to adequately investigate that possibility because they quickly concluded Simpson had killed his ex-wife and her friend. WATCH: Kato Kaelin describes OJ Simpson encounter that raised suspicions According to Aguilar's testimony, investigators compared the unidentified prints with those of Simpson, Brown Simpson and 58 friends, relatives and acquaintances, but found no matches. Aguilar also testified that investigators searched federal and state computerized fingerprint databases without finding a match. Mark said his goal for the docuseries was "to raise enough questions that it gets a second look." FOLLOW THE FOX TRUE CRIME TEAM ON X "I'm very careful about the call to action because there are victims' families involved here and you would want them to be supportive of that," Mark said. "That would be my first priority. Assuming it was something they were interested in, I think everyone deserves to know what actually happened, and if that involves a second person, third person or whatever it is, great." Aguilar, who appears in the docuseries, raised the possibility that today's expanded fingerprint databases could produce a match. WATCH: Alan Dershowitz calls for independent OJ Simpson probe over lingering third-party questions "At the crime scene, there were nine identifiable prints that I never identified to whom they belong," Aguilar said in the documentary. "Back in 1994, you're running prints through AFIS (Automated Fingerprint Identification System). But first, it's checking everybody that's been arrested by the Los Angeles Police Department. Then it would be run through Sacramento. Then run through all the Western states." "If somebody is arrested outside your database, like in New York or the state of Florida, you’re not going to get anything," Aguilar continued. "LAPD has all the prints and they could have them [tested again]. They may or may not. I don’t know. It’s up to them now." It is unclear whether investigators have reexamined the nine unidentified fingerprints using modern forensic technology or updated fingerprint databases. An LAPD spokesperson told Fox News Digital that the investigation remains open. SIGN UP TO GET THE LATEST TRUE CRIME NEWS "The OJ Simpson case remains an open and ongoing investigation. The Department has an obligation to continue to pursue justice in this matter, at a point that, if new evidence is found, detectives will follow those investigatory leads. At this point there is no other information available for release." In the docuseries, defense investigator Pat McKenna said the fingerprints should easily be sent to a lab for further analysis. "This is like a door," he said. "Wide open. Don't you want to close that door? I would think they should want to do that. But I think they're afraid of what it would show." According to the docuseries, the producers asked the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office to have the unidentified fingerprints reexamined but received no response. Fox News Digital contacted the office for comment. "I wouldn't put anything past technology," Mark said. "I think we all know that tech, it's just gotten so advanced, especially when it comes to forensics, that I believe something could be pulled from those fingerprints. Ideally, there'd be some sort of DNA that's been preserved, and the right type of reopening would force a reinvestigation of those materials." "I feel very confident that if everyone was on the same page and we wanted to look at something objectively and see if there's any new truth there, we could do it," Mark added. SIGN UP TO GET THE TRUE CRIME NEWSLETTER The unidentified fingerprints are part of the docuseries' broader investigation into whether Simpson had an accomplice the night Brown Simpson and Goldman were killed. Before the docuseries premiered, Joey Ippolito's brother, Sam Ippolito, told The New York Times that Joey returned to a Los Angeles apartment around midnight on June 12, 1994, carrying a bag containing a heavy object. Sam said his brother appeared to have blood on his hands after leaving the apartment hours earlier to help a friend. According to Sam, Joey stuffed his clothes into the bag and instructed him to dispose of it while he showered. Sam Ippolito told the newspaper he tossed the bag into a dumpster near a construction site along Doheny Drive in Los Angeles. Sam shared a similar account in the docuseries. GET REAL-TIME UPDATES DIRECTLY ON THE TRUE CRIME HUB Sam's account has also faced questions about its credibility. According to The New York Times, he sought compensation from the newspaper and later attempted to retract his statements after the newspaper declined his request for payment. Friends and relatives have disputed suggestions that Ippolito participated in the murders. Ippolito, who escaped from a Florida prison in May 1994, became a federal informant after his arrest in August 1995, while Simpson's nationally televised murder trial was nearing its conclusion. He died in 2006. A December 1996 federal prosecution memorandum, unsealed at The New York Times' request, described Ippolito as a valuable source who possessed information about Simpson's alleged efforts to dispose of the murder weapon and his attempted flight from authorities. LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING?

Kelley later told The New York Times he did not believe Ippolito participated in the murders. "My instinct is that not only did I feel that he was telling the truth, but I also felt that he had more to share," Mark said. "I think The New York Times probably spooked him a bit because they are a big publication … But I really do believe him. I believed him then, I believe him now." GET BREAKING NEWS BY EMAIL Brown Simpson's sister, Tanya Brown, rejects the theory that Simpson had an accomplice. In the docuseries, Tanya Brown said she believes Simpson alone was responsible for her sister's murder. "I think it's impossible if you're in her position to speculate about theories, and I don't blame her for that," Mark said. "Everything about her felt like the little sister of somebody who's an unfortunate victim." Simpson and Brown Simpson married in 1985. They had two children, Sydney and Justin, and divorced in 1992. Two years later, Brown Simpson and Goldman were found stabbed to death. SEND US A TIP Investigators quickly focused on Simpson. Following the 1995 murder trial, he was acquitted of killing Brown Simpson and Goldman. In 1997, a civil jury found Simpson liable for their deaths. He later served nearly nine years in prison following his conviction on armed robbery and other charges stemming from an unrelated incident in Las Vegas. He died in April 2024 at age 76.

And they got their wish. The dramatic blue wave – with the most dramatic shock coming in Texas – caused a wave of positive coverage. On Wednesday morning, Nov. 4, you might expect any winning candidate who gets interviewed is going to receive soft questioning, a form of congratulations. But you might be a little surprised by the fountains of gush. On ABC, former Clinton press secretary George Stephanopoulos was teeing up Texas Sen.-Elect James Talarico with this: "You said you want to pursue a politics of love. For a lot of Americans who may be hearing you for the first time this morning, spell out what that means." DEM WINS TRUMP-TARGETED TEXAS DISTRICT IN REBUKE OF REPUBLICAN REDISTRICTING SHAKEUP Talarico happily complied: "Yeah, I think we are all tired of this politics of division, this politics of hate, this politics of fear. I’m tired of being pitted against my neighbor. I’m tired of being told to hate my neighbor." It's really annoying when Democrats like Talarico or former President Barack Obama accuse the Republicans of seeking to "divide us" even as they suggest the Republicans are evildoers who only care about billionaires. Campaigns are won by dividing people. That's how it works. Does anyone think ABC, CBS and NBC were practicing a "politics of love" and unity leading up to the elections? Not if they were watching TV. TIM GRAHAM: THREE-TO-ONE NEGATIVE COVERAGE TELLS THE STORY OF NETWORK BIAS Over on "CBS Mornings," the hosts were gushing over Kansas Sen.-elect Adam Hamilton, pastor of a Methodist megachurch. Norah O’Donnell asked, "I know you have promised to bring the biblical Golden Rule to D.C., as you have said, ‘Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.’ Have you been to Washington? That place is pretty cutthroat. How are you going to do that?" Gayle King echoed that, oozing, "so many people are really happy to hear you talk about decency and kindness, pastor, because when we were talking to people, they said they’re sick of ... the vulgarity, the crassness, and you said that — people were very touched to hear yesterday that you start your day on your knees and you’re in prayer."

Well, let’s talk about it because it’s time to get to work. So, I guess I’ll ask you about the genesis of your work and then what the revelations will be later." When the professing Christians are Democrats, suddenly religion is a wonderful thing. Laugh when they claim the new Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss has changed the tone of CBS. Speaking of religion, Michigan’s Sen.-elect Abdul El-Sayed was promoted as the first Muslim to be elected to the Senate, and the networks all read from the same song sheet that he was attacked by Republicans for "his faith." Forget the campaigning with podcaster Hasan "America Deserved 9/11" Piker, or El-Sayed signing a petition calling for a purging of the media in Egypt by the Muslim Brotherhood. It was just cartooned into ignorant prejudice, an Islamophobic attack on Muslims. They touted how he overcame it to make history: FIRST MUSLIM SENATOR, FIRST BLACK FEMALE GOVERNOR: 2026 MIDTERM ELECTION RESULTS MAKE HISTORY ABC’s Mary Bruce: "Abdul El-Sayed becoming the first Muslim elected to the U.S. Senate after President Trump launched Islamophobic attacks on his faith." CBS’s Nikole Killion: "Abdul el-Sayed is making history this morning as the first Muslim ever elected to the U.S. Senate. In his speech overnight, he shot back at his critics, including his GOP opponent, Mike Rogers. He said this was one of the ugliest campaigns he’s been in and accused his opposition of trying to divide voters by mocking his name and his faith." CBS NEWS TAKES HEAT OVER REPORT ON DEM HOPEFUL ABDUL EL-SAYED'S NOW-DELETED 9/11 POSTS NBC’s Ryan Nobles: The Democrat won "after a bitter and contentious campaign Republicans accusing El-Sayed of anti-Semitism after his criticism of Israel and the Democrat facing personal attacks over his faith, including from President Trump." Liz Landers on PBS: "He'll become the first Muslim ever elected to the Senate and withstanding ugly campaign attacks on his faith, including when the president called him a jihadist." DEM AG PULLS OFF UPSET OF SITTING REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR AFTER BLISTERING CAMPAIGN IN KEY SWING STATE Speaking of making history in terms of diversity, on Wipeout Wednesday night’s "PBS News Hour," anchor Geoff Bennett celebrated his list of electoral "historic firsts," but his recap left out Florida electing its first Black governor – perhaps because Byron Donalds is a Republican. They highlighted radical socialist Melat Kiros of Colorado as the "first Generation Z woman elected to Congress," but not the Black governors, which also included Democrats Aaron Ford in Nevada and David Crowley in Wisconsin.

Piker proclaimed that "virtually every locality, every state, every House district decided to punish the Trump administration and the Republican Party for the death and destruction it's brought about all around the world." The election results, Piker said, pleased him after it "almost felt like this country was far more vicious, far more racist than it actually was." According to our elitist media networks, democracy has only truly flowered when Democrats win, and when they do, suddenly America is no longer considered viciously racist.

"Horrible decision," Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-Ind., told Fox News Digital on Friday after Trump announced his decision. A Republican lawmaker who was granted anonymity to speak candidly said they were in "utter disbelief." Tensions were rising against Miller in the wake of Republicans’ terrible performance in Tuesday’s midterm elections. Multiple House Republicans who spoke with Fox News Digital just moments before his promotion said Miller, who spearheads Trump’s immigration policy, should be fired. TRUMP NAMES STEPHEN MILLER NEW WHITE HOUSE CHIEF OF STAFF, REPLACING SUSIE WILES When later asked about his promotion, one House Republican who said Miller should be fired replied simply with a facepalm emoji. Republicans suffered historic losses that saw both the House and Senate fall into Democrats’ hands in the new Congress. Democrats are on pace to win more than 250 seats in the House and at least 54 in the Senate. AMERICA SAW THE BLUE WAVE COMING — BUT DRASTICALLY UNDERESTIMATED THE EXTENT OF THE DEM TSUNAMI And while voter analyses have shown that Trump’s war in Iran and tariffs played the biggest roles in turning people away from the GOP, his handling of illegal immigration served to alienate voters in key areas. That’s in no small part due to Hispanic and Latino voters turning their backs on Republicans in places like Texas that shifted massively toward Democrats in this election cycle. "Because of his immigration positions, I just think we ruined a lot of our goodwill with Latino voters," Stutzman said. The second GOP lawmaker told Fox News Digital that Miller ignored multiple warnings from House Republicans in the past, arguing that Trump’s immigration crackdown is what voters asked for. "I've been in several group meetings where a lot of us have told him, ‘Your immigration enforcement policies are backfiring back home, our people are mad, our businesses are mad — even in deep red districts — and it is impacting not just the voters, but the donors, and everybody top to bottom," that GOP lawmaker said. "But it looked to me like Stephen Miller was only after numbers … he would not listen to us." Other Republicans who spoke with Fox News Digital also criticized Miller but did not go as far as to say he should be fired. REPUBLICANS TURN ON TRUMP AFTER DEVASTATING MIDTERM LOSSES HAND DEMOCRATS CONTROL OF CONGRESS "I think he's greatly hurt the administration and cost us many seats on Tuesday," retiring Rep. Don Bacon, R-Neb., told Fox News Digital before news of Miller’s promotion broke. "He took an immigration policy that favored the president 2:1 in the public, over-reached and made it 2:1 unfavorable." "Many Republicans don’t like him," Bacon added when asked about his promotion. Miller is widely known as Trump’s right hand on immigration policy, including earlier this year when the administration faced bipartisan backlash over its handling of anti-immigration enforcement protests in places like Minneapolis. Several Republicans, particularly those running in battleground districts, had called for Trump to limit deportations to illegal immigrants who have committed crimes while in the United States. A fourth GOP lawmaker said, "Stephen is a megalomaniac who should have never been given the keys to the Ferrari. That being said, he's not the reason why we lost...no one knows who Stephen Miller is in our districts." Various other administration officials also got their share of blame in the fallout from Tuesday’s midterm massacre, including Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Trump himself. But the president and people in his orbit have blamed candidate quality, arguing that in many cases the president campaigned harder than some of the people he supported did for themselves. And in his Truth Social post announcing Miller’s promotion, Trump called him one of his "most trusted advisors." He later told reporters Miller would "do a great job." When Fox News Digital reached the White House for comment, spokeswoman Lauren Bis said Miller "has been a key player in delivering on President Trump’s America First agenda since day one." "He has spearheaded the administration’s crime crackdown including in D.C. and Memphis, record setting deregulation, unleashed American energy, dismantled drug cartels, and secured our border. In his new role, he will continue to deliver historic successes for the American people," Bis said. Bis also pointed to a list of positive comments about Miller by administration officials and members of Congress. "Very grateful to Susie for her friendship and service to the president and our country. Stephen Miller is an amazing patriot and will do great things. Congrats to him on a well deserved promotion!" Vice President JD Vance said. "Stephen Miller has built a proven record focused on securing our border, combating crime, and advancing a now much-needed common-sense conservative agenda for our country," House Freedom Caucus Chairman Andy Harris said. A White House official told Fox News Digital Miller had experience working with Democrats on the D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force and that he has been a "valuable, trusted aide" since 2016.

Two weeks ago, the schedule was loaded with great games. Luckily for us, this week we have a ton of great match-ups, including a handful of ranked teams taking each other on. The first one of the day is between BYU and Utah, a top-10 match-up that kicks off at 12:00 ET. BYU comes into this game as the 9th-ranked team in the country. They’ve had quite the interesting season with a 7-1 record and a 4-1 mark in Big 12 play. They started the season with six straight wins, beating Utah Tech, Arizona, Colorado State, TCU, Iowa State, and, of course, Notre Dame. Only the games against TCU and Notre Dame were one-score affairs, but the Cougars came out on top in both of the contests. It seems like more of a certainty than a trend at this point. A team gets a big win for their school, and the next week, the team falls apart and loses the game. That was the story with Georgia, Ole Miss, and BYU this season, just off the top of my head. They beat Notre Dame and then went to UCF the next week and lost in double overtime. They did rebound last week against Arizona State, but that was only a seven-point victory. BYU SURVIVES UNRANKED ARIZONA STATE'S SECOND-HALF RALLY, STAYS UNBEATEN AT HOME Utah is currently ranked third in the nation and is expected to get a Bye in the College Football Playoffs if the standings stay roughly the same. The Utes are 8-0 for the season, but they haven’t had an overly difficult season. Winning eight straight games is always difficult, and Utah has a ton of talent on the roster, but this team has faced exactly one ranked team this season. Sure, Cincinnati is a decent team, but that’s not a win you can point to as a major victory. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM The major win on their schedule was against Houston, and that wasn’t overly impressive considering that they were at home and won 21-13. Their next two weeks are against BYU and Arizona. I suppose if they win both of those games, they will be able to coast into the Big 12 Championship, and almost certainly into the College Football Playoffs. WEEK 9 AP TOP 25 POLL MAKES A MOCKERY OF WAKE FOREST AND A LAUGHABLE OVERREACTION TO USC'S WIN OVER BUCKEYES This game will likely come down to which team is better at quarterback. BYU has Bear Bachmeier, a true dual-threat quarterback. Utah sends out Devon Dampier, who is also a solid runner in addition to a strong pocket presence. Bachmeier isn’t as likely to win the game with his arm as Dampier, but Dampier is not as likely to win it on the ground. This will be a close game with both teams being very patient. Look for Utah to load the box, and look for BYU to encourage Utah to run. Give me the under 49.5 in this one.

Gavin Newsom following his announcement to commute the sentences of 548 death row inmates, a decision one prosecutor called a slap in the face to victims' families. Newsom’s sweeping order to commute the condemned inmates to life in prison without the possibility of parole has drawn intense criticism alongside praise from anti-death penalty advocates. "I think it's all about politics, sadly. Politics is over people in this case, and that's a real sad state of affairs," San Luis Obispo County District Attorney Dan Dow told Fox News Digital. ALABAMA GOVERNOR COMMUTES DEATH SENTENCE AS DOUBTS EMERGE ABOUT EVIDENCE IN MURDER CONVICTION In an open letter detailing his decision, Newsom said California's capital punishment system is fundamentally at odds with the state's principles. "After nearly 30 years in public office, I have come to understand the limits of what government can justly accomplish," Newsom wrote. "I take this action because I firmly believe that state-sanctioned killing is incompatible with California’s values, undermines the foundations of our legal system, and diminishes each of us." POPE LEO DENOUNCES DEATH PENALTY AS 'INADMISSIBLE' AHEAD OF PENTAGON'S PLANNED LIVESTREAMED EXECUTION Upon taking office in 2019, Newsom issued an executive moratorium on capital punishment. California has not carried out an execution since 2006. The backlash to the governor's announcement was immediate. FLORIDA PUTS 77-YEAR-OLD MAN TO DEATH FOR DEPUTY'S MURDER AS STATE CLOSES IN ON EXECUTION RECORD "Justice will not have been served for these victims, dozens of them in San Diego County," said Lt. Jared Wilson, president of the San Diego Police Officers Association. "Their last memories were of these evil, evil men who took their lives. What Gavin Newsom has done is awful." Wilson and other law enforcement officials strongly criticized the blanket clemency, citing cases like that of Jesse Michael Gomez, who was sentenced to death for the 2016 murder of San Diego police officer Jonathan "J.D." De Guzman. "Californians have been asked on two separate ballot initiatives to abolish the death penalty, and both times they have chosen to keep it for the most serious crimes," said Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman. "Until the law is changed, my office will continue to evaluate every death penalty-eligible case with the rigor, care, and restraint these decisions demand." NEW YORK BILLS COULD ABOLISH LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE FOR SERIAL KILLERS AND COP KILLERS, CRITICS WARN Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer called the commutations "mercy for the wolves … while inflicting the ultimate act of cruelty on the sheep," saying voters in California have upheld the death penalty in recent years. Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, who previously ran for governor, noted that 127 inmates on California’s death row were sentenced for crimes committed in his county. "These sentences were not handed down without due process," he said. "They followed extensive investigations, lengthy trials, evidence presented in court, and decisions made by juries and judges. "Yet, with one sweeping executive decision, the governor has chosen to override those outcomes, disregarding the voices of victims’ families, the work of prosecutors, and the pursuit of justice that took years to achieve." Among the 548 inmates whose sentences were commuted are two men convicted in San Luis Obispo County: Michael Whisenhunt, 61, who was sentenced to death for the 1995 torture and murder of his girlfriend's 1-year-old daughter, Kesha Gurke; and Rex Krebs, 60, who was convicted in the brutal slayings of two female college students. CHARLES MANSON CULT FOLLOWER BRUCE DAVIS, CONVICTED IN TWO 1969 KILLINGS, DIES BEHIND BARS AT 83 Dow noted that families of the victims were neither consulted nor notified prior to Newsom's public announcement. "I was just sickened, frankly, for the crime victims in California who were slapped in the face by our governor," Dow said. JUDGE BLOCKS ALABAMA'S NITROGEN GAS EXECUTION METHOD, RULES IT IS UNCONSTITUTIONALLY CRUEL Addressing arguments from anti-death penalty groups who contend that capital punishment is inherently flawed and racially biased, Dow defended the current legal framework. "We have a rigorous defense procedure that weeds out cases. I have strong confidence in the integrity of our convictions," he said.

It really doesn’t matter what our opinions are. I’m sure that someone will miss out on the Playoffs and everyone will be upset about it. It is inevitable, and it seems like this year there is more parity than ever before. It feels like almost weekly we get a new top team in the nation. The current top team takes the field tonight as Miami takes on Notre Dame. Miami has passed every test to start this season, but this is arguably the biggest test of the entire year for them. They come into this game at 8-0, and they have done it behind very strong quarterback play from Darian Mensah. For the season, Mensah has thrown for 2,425 yards and 25 touchdowns with just one interception. 13 of those 25 touchdowns have gone to Malachi Toney, who is missing this game with an ankle injury. He is getting surgery on the ankle as well, so someone has to step up in a big way. I’m going to criticize Notre Dame for this, so I should probably do the same for Miami. Their schedule isn’t very impressive. Notre Dame is the only team on the schedule that is ranked, and therefore will be the first ranked team they play. They beat Stanford, Florida A&M, Wake Forest, Central Michigan, Clemson, Florida State, Pittsburgh, and North Carolina. In fairness to them, it turns out Wake Forest is good, but at the time they were not ranked. They did have a scare against Florida State, winning in a somewhat controversial way in double overtime. CFP RANKINGS: NOTRE DAME FACES SUDDEN DEATH, SEC FEELING GOOD, AND BIG TEN CLOSE TO HITTING THE PANIC BUTTON Notre Dame is one of the more frustrating schools in my opinion. They aren’t in a conference, and everyone seems to think they are a powerhouse. I haven’t been impressed by their team in most seasons. They tend to coast to wins against bad teams because they can pick whoever they want to play. This year, the Fighting Irish come into the game with a 7-1 record, having lost against BYU two games ago. That was also a controversial loss, but either way, the loss is on their record. THESE NUMBERS SHOW JUST HOW FRAUDULENT NOTRE DAME HAS BEEN DURING THE MARCUS FREEMAN ERA CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM The other wins they had this season were against Wisconsin, Rice, Michigan State, Purdue, North Carolina, Stanford, and Navy. None of these games were particularly close. They have won all of them by at least two scores. CJ Carr has put together a really strong season, but again, it is hard to assess how good he actually is considering the team has played poor competition. He has thrown 18 touchdown passes, and unlike Miami, he is spreading the ball around the field. This was one of the most anticipated games of the season a few weeks ago. Without Toney, Notre Dame does get a bit lucky. Playing Miami, even at home, will still be a challenge, but without their best offensive weapon, it should be easier for the Fighting Irish. I do think the spread is a bit too high, though. Give me Miami +7.5 points in this one. I just think the books are overestimating how good Notre Dame is, and how much of an impact Toney’s absence will have.

The stakes could not be higher. Outgoing Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., must use every remaining day to confirm all of President Trump's pending judicial nominees. That means 23 judges, four for the circuit courts and 19 for the district courts, before the gavel changes hands. Make no mistake about what comes next. Incoming Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., will block any confirmation to the courts of appeals. He likely won't spare the district courts either. Senate Republicans either finish the judicial job now, or they leave these seats open for the left if Democrats win back the White House in 2028. Appellate courts are the most consequential. They get the final word in the vast majority of cases. The Supreme Court grants only about 1% of all petitions for review. For nearly every litigant in federal court in America, the circuit court is the last stop. TRUMP AIMS TO ELEVATE FEDERAL JUDGE LEE RUDOFSKY TO COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT President Trump has nominated four outstanding jurists to strengthen key appellate benches: Anna St. John and Todd Butler to the Fifth Circuit, Lee Rudofsky to the Eighth Circuit, and Dan Domenico to the Tenth Circuit. St. John, Rudofsky, and Domenico already serve with distinction on the district courts in Louisiana, Arkansas, and Colorado. All four are well prepared to step into these roles. They will succeed judges who have given the country decades of distinguished service: Fifth Circuit Judges Leslie Southwick and Kurt Engelhardt, Eighth Circuit Judge Bobby Shepherd, and Tenth Circuit Judge Timothy Tymkovich. Their long and exemplary tenures merit our deep gratitude. UNDER-THE-RADAR IMPLICATION OF DEM BLUE WAVE MEANS 'ZERO' CHANCE GOP ACCOMPLISHES CRITICAL GOAL, EXPERTS WARN Outgoing Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, is the king of oversight and the undisputed heavyweight champion of shepherding nominees through the confirmation gauntlet. He has already scheduled two November hearings to handle an expanded slate, and he is taking heat from Democrats for doing it. Grassley has done his part. Now his colleagues must do theirs. Sen. John Boozman and his fellow Arkansas Republican Sen. Tom Cotton have raised questions about Rudofsky, and every senator has the right to do his due diligence. But the calendar leaves no more room for deliberation. Rudofsky is a constitutionalist stalwart, and he has earned swift approval. If this nomination stalls, a left-wing judicial activist could eventually take this crucially important federal appellate seat. Sen. Boozman and his colleagues should move Rudofsky without further delay. HUGH HEWITT: THE MIDTERMS ARE ONE MONTH OUT — YOU NEED TO KNOW THE STAKES District courts matter too. The slate is set, and the work that remains is simple. Republican senators must show up for every committee vote, advance this slate out of the Judiciary Committee and confirm every one of these nominees on the Senate floor. The pieces are in place. Get it done, quickly. Democrats wrote this playbook. In the 2024 lame-duck session, after Republicans had won a Senate majority starting in January 2025, then-Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Richard Durbin, D-Ilinois, ruthlessly rammed through several judges. The votes kept coming until just a few days before Christmas, and Schumer enthusiastically led the way. The left has no standing to complain today when the GOP rightly returns the favor. Given the chance, Schumer would do it all again. Everyone knows it. Many Republican incumbents leave office in January after years of service to their states. Crucial work remains. These judges will sit for decades and dramatically shape the law. Senators have a solemn responsibility to confirm these exceptional nominees. A leftist president must not get to stack these seats with radicals. Constitutionalists must hold these lifetime appointments. The next two years will be bleak for judicial nominees, and bleak in plenty of other ways. The next two months must be bright. Confirming these outstanding judges will be the lasting legacy of these outgoing senators.

"Long ago, you predicted that you would win this race by seven points, which at the time seemed like a pretty cocky and ill-considered thing to say. Then you won the race by seven points. People are still calling you cocky," podcast host Jon Favreau said during his interview with El-Sayed. "How do you see yourself?" "I think there is a responsibility that we have to engage with [Trump] as the unserious fool that he is," El-Sayed replied. EL-SAYED MOCKS TRUMP, VANCE AND ROGERS IN GLOATING VICTORY SPEECH SIGNALING COMBATIVE TONE IN SENATE El-Sayed’s response sheds light on his view of his own campaign and the tone that he believes Democrats need to adopt to counter Trump’s presence in American politics. It also raises questions of whether El-Sayed’s campaign strategies will yield results in Congress. In his view, Trump has changed the style of acceptable communication. In turn, he accused Democrats of being hesitant to abandon a kind of decorum to fight fire with fire. "I just think there’s a responsibility for us to walk out of 'The West Wing' episode that our politics used to feel like and into the reality of where we are," El-Sayed said, referring to a a television drama known for its idealistic portrayal of American politics. "I say that because if you’ve ever watched a bully in a room, if you don’t stand up to the bully, it’s not like the bully will just go away. The bully just gets stronger," El-Sayed said. During his campaign, El-Sayed repeatedly pointed a finger at Trump for, in his view, ushering in a new age of political rhetoric. But that view also preceded his Senate bid. TRUMP DOMINATES EL-SAYED'S ATTACKS AGAINST ROGERS, BUT GOP RIVAL OFFERS UNEXPECTED POLICY SPLIT He once accused President Donald Trump of inciting terrorism in a 2020 interview, citing a foiled plot to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. "These are terrorists; we have to call them that. We have to recognize that that is what the face of terrorism looks like right now. We have to step up against it," El-Sayed said. "We gotta ask: why are these people getting radicalized? Well, there must be some radical, extremist cleric out there who may be tweeting up a storm about all the things that they think need to be done, like liberating Michigan." Although President Donald Trump did not call for any kind of violence against Whitmer, El-Sayed said he believed the president was at least partially responsible, pointing to a tweet Trump had made six months before the discovered plot. "LIBERATE MICHIGAN!" Trump wrote in a post on Twitter, the social media platform now known as X. The post was one of a series calling to "liberate" Virginia and Minnesota from COVID-19 restrictions imposed by Democratic governors. According to FBI comments to local media, the plot originated before Trump's post. Even so, El-Sayed called the posts emblematic of a cultural toxicity that had made violence more likely. "The idea that people would threaten her safety because she was willing to stand up to keep us all healthy is, to me, the example of what the kind of toxicity that we see out of Donald Trump creates," El-Sayed said. MAJORITY LEADER THUNE SAYS SENATE GOP WON'T 'STAND IDLY BY' AS DEMOCRATS TAKE CONTROL OF CONGRESS A spokesperson for El-Sayed did not immediately respond to requests for comment on whether he believed in a red line for what kind of rhetoric Democrats should refrain from using. Having won his U.S. Senate election, El-Sayed will be sworn into office on Jan. 3, 2027, the start of the 120th Congress. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef1774bcfe2a61c5f4b5e7 Why Larry David never wanted this biography made and how a George Costanza scheme won him over te 2026-11-07T12:20:04.993Z Why Larry David never wanted this biography made and how a George Costanza scheme won him over Larry David spent decades making millions of Americans laugh through his hit television shows, but when it came to his own life story, the comedy legend wasn’t eager to see it in print. Author Blake J. Harris, who spent six years researching Larry David's life and writing his biography, "Emperor of Nothing: The Making of Larry David," told Fox News Digital that the "Seinfeld" co-creator and "Curb Your Enthusiasm" star had a blunt reaction after reading the manuscript. "I wanted him to reflect on his career, you know, the 75 years that are in the book. And so I said, ‘Larry, you know, it's been six years. Do you have any big macro thoughts?’" Harris said of the conversation with David. LARRY DAVID SAW OJ SIMPSON THE DAY OF NICOLE BROWN SIMPSON'S 1994 MURDER: BOOK "I thought that he would maybe say like, ‘Yeah, it's really so unlikely that I succeeded’ or ‘I really was so unprofessional.’ The things that he had sort of talked about in the book already. But instead, he took the question a little bit differently, and he said, ‘Yeah, if I could do it over, I wouldn't do it.’ Meaning the book, he wouldn't do the book," Harris said. Despite David's response, Harris said the comedian quickly realized his comment had hurt the biographer's feelings and tried to reassure him. "The real-life Larry David, who is a pretty sweet guy and has compassion, he noticed that that made me feel bad, and he didn't intend for me to feel bad. So he said, ‘No, no, Blake, not because of anything you did, you did a great job, you did a great job.’ He repeated that, which I appreciated. He said, ‘I just don't want people knowing about me,’" Harris said. David, 79, co-created "Seinfeld" alongside comedian Jerry Seinfeld in 1989, serving as a writer and executive producer for the show's first seven seasons. The sitcom ultimately ran for nine seasons, with David returning to write the series finale. David later starred in HBO's "Curb Your Enthusiasm," which ran for 12 seasons. The Emmy-winning comedian is widely regarded as one of television comedy's most influential figures. BARACK OBAMA, LARRY DAVID PARTNER FOR NEW HBO HISTORICALLY BASED SKETCH COMEDY SERIES But when Harris first set out to write the biography in early 2020, getting David on board was not an easy task. Harris said he initially reached out to David’s longtime collaborator and executive producer, Jeff Schaffer, but David was far from enthusiastic about the idea. "Larry’s initial response to Jeff Schaffer about me doing the book was, ‘Oh my God, are you kidding me? Why would somebody do this to me?’" Harris recalled. "He was very, very unhappy about this prospect of a book being written about him." Harris said he believes David's hesitation stemmed from both his desire for privacy and his humility. "In his mind, he just doesn't see himself as book-worthy," Harris said. "He sees there’s politicians and founders and great world leaders and scientists and all these people who deserve to have books written about them, and he doesn't see himself as one of those people." WHY EVERYBODY STILL LOVES 'RAYMOND' 30 YEARS LATER: HOW SUBURBAN FAMILY CHAOS BECAME COMEDY GOLD To break the stalemate, Harris said he took a different approach, one he described as "George Costanza-inspired." After being introduced to David through comedy writer Alan Zweibel, Harris asked Zweibel to tell David he wanted their first phone call to follow one strict rule: He wouldn't ask about either of David’s hit shows. Instead, they would talk exclusively about the New York Yankees. "Larry and I spoke two days later about the New York Yankees for 45 minutes," Harris said. "And I guess I passed the test, and we started speaking regularly." Although David began speaking with Harris, he was still hesitant about having a biography written about him. "I reflected with Larry, who doesn't really reflect all that often. And I said, ‘Is it true that when Jeff Schaffer first told you that I want to write this book about you, that you were not very happy?’ And he said, ‘Oh no, I was so angry. I was so unhappy,’" Harris said. "And I said, ‘Larry, well, it's, you know, midnight, New York time. It's nine o'clock LA time. Why are you on the phone with me then? No one's holding a gun to your head.’ And he said, the greatest words I've ever heard. He said, ‘I kind of like you.’ And so, Larry David kind of liked me and that sort of gave me the green light to keep moving forward," he added. JULIA LOUIS-DREYFUS REVEALS ‘TONS’ OF FRICTION BEHIND THE SCENES OF ‘SEINFELD’ Over the course of researching the biography, Harris spoke with hundreds of people, including David's family, friends and longtime collaborators. Among them was "Seinfeld" co-creator Jerry Seinfeld. Harris described the duo as the "Paul McCartney and John Lennon of television." "In Larry and Jerry's relationship, it was very clear to me, and Jerry conveyed this, that Larry was the pessimist and Jerry was the optimist," Harris said. Harris explained that while the two were working on "Seinfeld," David would often stare at a whiteboard used to map out episode ideas, worrying that they wouldn't be able to fill it or come up with jokes as funny as those from the previous season. "This is a thing with Larry even to this day. He's always worried that he's not [going to] be able to come up with as good of ideas as he had in the past, and Jerry would say to Larry, 'Larry, don't worry about 22 episodes,'" Harris said. Harris said Seinfeld encouraged David to focus on one episode at a time rather than worrying about the entire season. David expressed gratitude in the book for Seinfeld's ability to "talk him off the ledge" when those doubts surfaced, Harris said. He also learned that the two never had major fights, only minor disagreements over comedic details, including a playful argument over whether former New York Yankees players Moose Skowron or Hank Bauer had the funnier name for a "Seinfeld" script. "You could just hear Larry and Jerry shouting at each other, 'Moose Skowron!' 'No, Hank Bauer!' in the office. And it was heated in the sense of just joking," Harris said. "But then at the end of the day, unsurprisingly, they found a way to get both names in the script and both of them got to put their imprint on this. And they never really had any actual fights," he added. COMEDIAN DECLARES JERRY SEINFELD 'UNCANCELLABLE' DESPITE 'WOKE' ANTI-ISRAEL FESTIVAL BOYCOTT Beyond David's professional relationships, Harris said one of the biggest revelations from his years of reporting was discovering just how different the comedian is from his selfish television alter ego, particularly when it comes to his family. On "Curb Your Enthusiasm," David plays a fictionalized version of himself who has no children, a decision Harris said reflected the comedian's belief that parenting was too serious a responsibility to be funny. In real life, however, Harris said David's two daughters are his greatest source of pride, surpassing even his accomplishments on "Seinfeld" and "Curb Your Enthusiasm." "There's that famous adage to not meet your heroes. I met mine and I left more impressed than when I started," Harris said. "The part of him that we don't see on the TV show is that he's actually kind of a sweetheart. He has a lot of human compassion that’s not expressed on the show. If you were to spend time with him, the very first thing that he would talk about, or the thing that he'd be most proud to talk about, is not ‘Seinfeld’ or ‘Curb’ or even the New York Yankees. It would be his daughters." Although David was initially reluctant to participate in the biography, Harris said the comedian's objections to the finished manuscript had little to do with unflattering portrayals. Instead, David took issue with passages where he believed he wasn’t funny or came across as too nice. "The only times that he really had a problem were where he wasn't funny and where he thought he came off as too nice," Harris said. Ultimately, Harris described David's journey as an unlikely American success story. "It’s really not just a story about Larry David, it's a story about the 1970s and 1980s comedy scene, it's a story about television and, above all else, it's the story about how this guy who was so unlikely to succeed, but in America, this land of opportunity, somehow, someway, his talent rose to the top, and he was really a late bloomer. So, I think it's really inspiring in that regard."

In September 2025, Anthony Favors, 57, who initially faced six indictments, including abduction and burglary, took a plea deal for two counts of rape to secure a 24-year prison sentence. Norfolk Judge Everett A. Martin Jr. ordered 12 years for each count to run consecutively. Months later, Amy received an automated VINE text that Virginia’s parole board planned to review Favors’ case for possible release. "I finally get some sort of closure and justice. And then I get a text," Amy told Fox News Digital. "Nobody yet has told me how he's even eligible for parole." SUSAN SMITH ELIGIBLE FOR PAROLE AGAIN AFTER BEING DENIED RELEASE FOR DROWNING HER 2 SONS IN 1994 Norfolk Commonwealth’s Attorney Ramin Fatehi confirmed to Fox News Digital that Favors will likely have a "discretionary parole hearing" within the next few months. Fatehi explained that a bureaucratic overlap triggered the hearing: the parole board previously considered Favors for release on a previous rape conviction but never granted it, legally opening the door for the upcoming review. "It’s discretionary because he had been locked up for so long. He is theoretically eligible," Fatehi said. FORENSIC GENEALOGY UNMASKS COLD CASE SUSPECT AS STRANGLER, SEXUAL PREDATOR DECADES LATER: OFFICIALS Favors was serving a 60-year sentence for a separate March 1992 rape when a 2024 DNA hit linked him to Amy’s case. Since he committed his offenses before Jan. 1, 1995, Virginia's old sentencing laws authorized the Virginia Parole Board to consider him for release. Fatehi said that there is a "slim chance to zero" of actually releasing Favors, but the possibility of an impending hearing left Amy reeling.

How in the world?" That was the question NFL legend and BYU great Steve Young had when name, image and likeness (NIL) compensation transformed college football in 2021. Instead? It’s been the opposite. Since 2021, BYU is tied with Boise State for the ninth-most wins in college football. The Cougars are currently No. 7 in the AP poll and reached No. 2 after beating Notre Dame. With a win over No. 3 Utah in the Holy War on Saturday, BYU has an opportunity to once again reach the top of the polls. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE NIL didn’t shut BYU out but instead gave the school an opportunity to get into the recruiting game. "I'm not throwing anyone under the bus," BYU Vice President of Advancement Keith Vorkink told OutKick. "But there's rumored payment of players long before NIL. We're a university that does our best to adhere to whatever the policies are at the time. We're grateful for the avenue that opened up for us to participate in that space and do so in compliance." But how does BYU, a private university sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Provo, Utah, assimilate into the NIL world without losing the institution's core values? Simply, the school doesn't stray from the culture that makes BYU what it is. "Our work was to figure out our play in the NIL space, but in doing so to never displace the primary role of our mission. Our football coach, as an example, Kalani Satake embraces the distinctive role of the university and the athletic department. We want student athletes coming because of, for example, in football, the culture that Kalani brings to that that aligns to the university and the church," Vorkink said. THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW! Vorkink said BYU doesn’t want to lead the NIL market. The school wants students to come for the culture, not primarily for the money. Young praised Sitake for building such a strong culture despite college football being littered with players who want to play for top dollar and nothing more. "It's hard to build affinity," Young told OutKick in a recent interview. "And that's why I say what Kalani's done is what is, I think, impossible, nearly, I think he is doing it, so it's not impossible. He's doing it in a really complex environment that works away from affinity, works away from spirit of abundance." "Right now, it's a zero-sum game, right? It's, I'm a mercenary and just pay me. And, and he's built something. He's like, oh, no, we recognize you need to be paid. We recognize that this is part of the system, but can we put that aside, take care of that, and now build something that is unified." The culture at BYU has resonated with some of its star players. Vorkink said five-star freshman small forward Bruce Branch and star quarterback Bear Bachmeier could have left for more money but chose to stay. Vorkink said NIL and the ability to compensate players have allowed the school to recruit athletes it might not have been able to recruit before, including students who aren't members of the faith but find their way to campus and thrive. He mentioned 2026 NBA Draft No. 1 overall pick AJ Dybantsa as an example of a player who came to love the university despite initially knowing little about it. "AJ didn't know much about BYU. A lot of that was because (head coach) Kevin Young came from the NBA and he wondered, could Kevin help him prepare to play in the NBA. That got him here. There were other schools who are offering him more compensation than he received here, which is consistent with our philosophy. But he thrived," Vorkink said. "He spoke publicly about his love for BYU and how much he enjoyed being here. That helped gets the word out to other people who are like, well, is BYU too weird or not? Can I thrive? And we believe that student athletes, if they understand the mission, accommodate or embrace it, they can have a good experience here." At BYU, all students must sign an honor code requiring them to abstain from alcohol, tobacco, coffee, tea, vaping, marijuana and other prohibited substances, as well as sexual relations outside of marriage between a man and a woman. Young said the uniqueness and counterintuitive nature of the honor code can actually be a draw in recruiting. "It's counterintuitive in a way, but because you lead with the honor code, you lead with the uniqueness of BYU. By definition, the conversation is different than any other, like a lot of the conversations. And so, when you lead with it, but you lead with it with an openness and an invitation, and you can be your whole self. You don't have to conform," Young said. "There's certain behaviors that we're going to ask from you, but as far as who you are, you can express that, and you can be, you can feel, and I think that there's a lot of players, non-LDS players on the team, and that's true when I played, that felt like this is awesome being here." Young gives much of the credit to Sitake for maintaining the school's identity despite NIL and the money that comes with it threatening to tear it apart. "There's big money involved. Money is, we all know money is dangerous, man. There's fits and starts to it too, trying to figure it out. It is the wild west, and it's not simple," Young said. "Why I give Kalani so much credit in, in kind of holding up, like taking the spirit of what was, has always been here. And then applying it to these, and I guess in some ways, that's the magic, is that with an infrastructure of what I call the law of love, where like, we see you. We want all of you, like the whole self, and we want you to feel welcomed and, and here's the rules of the road." "We think it's good for you. We don't think it's bad. We don't think it's restrictive. We think it's actually expansive in ways that maybe be counterintuitive, but it's awesome." ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON'T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW! While BYU has found a way to thrive in the NIL era without compromising its values, both Young and Vorkink believe the system needs regulation to provide greater stability. "I think every university would want more stability, more of a solid framework around the compensation of student-athletes," Vorkink said. "I think we all realize the value that they bring economically to the athletic department and the university and they should be able to participate in it. But legislative solutions like protecting college sports, it's not perfect, but it really goes a long way in providing stability, and some governance in this world that we're supportive of." Young, like Vorkink, believes student-athletes should be paid as well. The former San Francisco 49ers star said he heard rumors that schools were considering hiring student-athletes as employees and even having them attend classes. He said Congress is the only entity that can balance the competing interests of student-athletes getting paid and graduating while not restricting their ability to transfer between schools in a free market. "Congress is the only one that can put that back together. I hope that all those competing interests can find a place where the players aren't the ones that lose. Cause I think that was what started the whole problem before is so much money was coming into the system, and the guys playing the game were, were making $50 in stipend." Young said. Regardless of what comes next, Young said BYU has hit on NIL and done it their way. "Hold on, you're supposed to be flailing in this system, and I think we've hit on it. We've looked it in the eye, right?" Young said. "We'll compete, but we're going to compete in (what) I call it the BYU way."

Losing is the toughest teacher; so tough, you only want to take the class once. For Republicans, Tuesday night was excruciating. Yes, history said, "Be prepared for losses." Yes, the mood of the voters was anger and uncertainty. But I did not talk to anyone who was prepared for what happened, either in terms of the sheer loss or the margin of the loss. Senate candidates in red states lost by unheard-of numbers. Long-serving and hard-working Republican House members like Virginia Foxx, Mike Turner and Richard Hudson were caught up in the tidal wave. South Carolina, North Carolina, Texas, Kansas and Ohio are red states in most presidential cycles. Not last Tuesday night. It was as thorough a whipping as I can recall in my lifetime. So why? What are the lessons to be learned, and what are the cautions for the Democrats? As it turns out, there are parallels between the two. CONSERVATIVES STUNNED BY 'CATASTROPHIC' MIDTERM BLUE TSUNAMI, BLAME TRUMP'S IRAN WAR, HIGH GAS PRICES How do you go from winning the Electoral College and the popular vote in a presidential race and being trusted with the gift to govern to historic losses in a relatively short period of time? President Trump did so and easily could claim a "mandate" on certain issues when he was victorious in November 2024. People want a secure border. People want violent offenders deported without delay. People want a rational immigration policy that rewards the right people and is rooted in fundamental humanity. By humanity, I mean showing dignity to those women and men who have been cutting the lawns, cleaning the hotel rooms and working in service industries while also abiding by our criminal laws. By humanity, I mean protecting American citizens from violent criminals – legally here or otherwise. President Trump’s first DHS secretary wrote last Tuesday night, "We lost because we were ‘too successful.’" It is that type of thinking that turns a one-cycle loss into decades of minority status. When people voted for border security, they were not including glitzy, self-serving ad campaigns focused on boosting personal political ambitions. When people chose Donald Trump in 2024, they gave not one thought to the possibility that Americans would be shot in cars or on the street and labeled domestic terrorists before even an initial investigation was conducted. It is absurd to assert Republicans lost in South Carolina, Texas, Kansas, Ohio, North Carolina and Michigan because "we were too successful." Losing can teach you. But only if you bother to show up for class. Every win is not a mandate. Every mandate is not a license to do whatever you want, regardless of the issue. President Trump was elected in 2024 because he promised to make life more affordable and safer for hard-working Americans who need not worry about the California billionaire tax. They are simply trying to raise families and meet their societal and familial obligations. There was not even a whiff in the 2024 exit polls about voters clamoring for those in government to engage in more self-enrichment, pursue naked personal political ambition, or use public office for anything other than true public service.

American service members lost their lives as a direct consequence of Iranian action, but that has been the case for decades. Iran has been killing Americans and giving aid and comfort to those who do so for nearly 50 years. That is precisely why the president insisted, "No more" and "No nuclear Iran." People can take whatever position they like on those issues, and reasonable minds can differ even within the same political party. But let us not forget that Iran has been a global pariah for nearly half a century, and I have yet to meet the person (outside of a few terrorist groups) who thinks it is a good idea for theocratic despots to have nuclear weapons. LIZ PEEK: THERE MAY BE A SILVER LINING IN TRUMP'S BRUTAL MIDTERM DEFEAT What is just as plausible is that voters got vertigo from all the fits and starts. War was on and then off. There was peace but then missiles. There was an MOU that took longer to draft than it lasted in effect. Was it possible Americans needed to be convinced that all other means of reining Iran in had been explored and exhausted? CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINION What is just as plausible is that the American people coveted a deeper explanation of why engagement with Iran was necessary now. Perhaps Iran was a drag on the election, but not nearly as much as perceived corruption, higher gas prices, and a sense that no one was listening. And that leads to the cautionary tale for Democrats. Winning does not equal a mandate. Sometimes it simply means voters hated you slightly less than the other team. With the right candidates, South Carolina, North Carolina, Texas, Kansas, Ohio, and Georgia can easily be red again.  Failing to heed the lessons of why you lost, casting blame in all the wrong places, and not engaging in serious self-reflection will most likely prolong that color change.

Gavin Newsom, 548 inmates on the state's death row will have their sentences commuted to life in prison, as he moves to clear death row. "I have decided to commute every death sentence," Newsom wrote in an open letter, acknowledging that he understood that the decision would anger people and hurt the victims' families who oppose it. "I will therefore issue the same commutation to every condemned person — life without the possibility of parole, the most severe punishment I can lawfully impose and the state of California can ethically enforce," he added. MICHAEL RUIZ: CALIFORNIA PROSECUTORS REVOLT AFTER NEWSOM ORDERS STATE'S WORST KILLERS OFF DEATH ROW Newsom’s announcement doesn’t automatically remove every inmate from death row. State law would require the Supreme Court’s approval to commute sentences for inmates with numerous felony convictions. This includes hundreds of inmates currently on death row. Fox News Digital reached out to Newsom's office for comment. California is home to some of the most notorious child murderers and serial killers, including the following 10: In 1993, Richard Allen Davis broke into a Petaluma residence and kidnapped 12-year-old Polly Ann Klaas, who had been having a sleepover at her home with two friends. Davis strangled Polly and left her body in a remote area in Cloverdale. In 1996, a Santa Clara County Superior Court judge sentenced Davis to death. His previous crimes helped prompt California’s "Three Strikes" law. Polly’s father, Marc Klaas, later founded the nonprofit organization, KlassKids Foundation, which ran for 30 years and assisted in the search for millions of missing children. Between 1977 and 1994, Joseph Naso killed at least four women in Contra Costa, Marin, and Yuba counties. He became known as the "Alphabet Killer" after choosing women who had the same letters in their first and last name. INDIANA, FLORIDA AND ALABAMA CARRY OUT RARE US TRIPLE EXECUTION DAY In 2013, a Marin County Superior Court judge sentenced Naso to death. In February 1999, Cary Stayner killed four people near Yosemite National Park. Stayner, a handyman at the nearby Cedar Lodge, murdered Carole Sund, 42. He also murdered and sexually assaulted her daughter Juli, 15, and killed family friend, Silvina Pelosso, 16. Months later, he beheaded a 26-year-old nature guide identified as Joie Armstrong. MULTIPLE DEATH SENTENCES IN DIFFERENT STATES ARE SET TO BE CARRIED OUT WITHIN 24 HOURS: 'NOT VERY COMMON' In 2002, a Santa Clara County Superior Court judge sentenced Stayner to death for the murders of Sund and the teen girls. He was already serving a life sentence for murdering Armstrong. Stayner first became notable as the older brother of Steven Stayner, who escaped a 1972 kidnapping in 1980. 'THRILL KILLER' AND DESERT EXECUTIONER — MEET THE DOZENS OF CRIMINALS DEM AG BACKED FOR PAROLE: 'NO BRAINER' Between 1987 and 1998, Chester Turner raped and murdered low-income women in South Los Angeles, often abandoning their bodies in dark alleys or vacant lots. Authorities arrested Turner in 2003, following a DNA database matching him to the victims. He became known as the "Southside Slayer" after targeting women in the South Figueroa Street corridor, between Gage Avenue and 108th Street in Los Angeles County. FLORIDA PUTS 77-YEAR-OLD MAN TO DEATH FOR DEPUTY'S MURDER AS STATE CLOSES IN ON EXECUTION RECORD In 2007, a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge sentenced Turner to death for killing 10 women. In 2014, he received another death sentence for the killings of four additional women. In 2011, Christopher Cheary murdered, raped, and tortured Sophia Acosta, identified as his girlfriend’s 3-year-old daughter. The incident happened while he babysat Sophia and her sister at an Exeter apartment. The child’s mother, who was not charged in the case, reported the crime after finding Sophia unconscious with head wounds. Medical staff later testified finding internal trauma on the victim, including signs of sexual torture. Following a 2016 conviction, a Tulare County Superior Court judge sentenced Cheary to death in 2017. Between 1971 and 1983, Randy Kraft raped, tortured, and killed at least 16 hitchhikers and young men across Southern California, although authorities believe he murdered over 60 people. He became known as the "Scorecard Killer" after investigators found a scorecard in his vehicle, listing victims with the locations of bodies written in code. Kraft’s killing spree ended in 1983, when California Highway Patrol officers pulled him over and found deceased Marine Terry Lee Gambrelin in his vehicle, in the front passenger seat. Authorities linked 43 victims to coded handwriting on the scorecard, but chose to charge Kraft with 16, to narrow the burden of proof.

Now, the former Hollywood lighting director is facing an entirely separate legal battle after being arrested and charged with possession of child sexual abuse material. Here's a look at the key moments in the Markle family's public history, from Meghan and her father's estrangement to the criminal investigation that led to Thomas' arrest. BUCKINGHAM PALACE 'BLINDSIDED' BY THOMAS MARKLE ALLEGATIONS AS HARRY, MEGHAN FACE NEW FAMILY TURMOIL: EXPERT Meghan's relationship with her father deteriorated publicly in May 2018, as she was set to marry Prince Harry. Just days before the royal wedding, he became embroiled in a controversy involving staged paparazzi photographs. Markle Sr. initially denied staging the paparazzi photographs and later said he had suffered a heart attack and needed medical treatment, preventing him from traveling to England for the ceremony. In August 2018, Meghan wrote her father a deeply personal letter asking him to stop discussing their relationship with the media. The following year, Britain's Mail on Sunday published portions of the handwritten letter after Markle Sr. shared it with the newspaper. Meghan subsequently sued for misuse of private information and copyright infringement. Their estrangement continued in the years that followed, with Markle Sr. publicly expressing disappointment over their lack of contact. PRINCE HARRY, MEGHAN MARKLE ACCUSED OF STAGING 'ROYAL THEATRE' AS KING CHARLES FACES NEW DILEMMA: EXPERT In October 2026, the Metropolitan Police confirmed that they had received a letter in January 2019 "containing a number of claims about alleged offending outside the United Kingdom." Police said that while officers shared the letter with Harry and Meghan's office, they did not share the allegations with other law enforcement agencies. On Oct. 29, 206, the Metropolitan Police confirmed that they had referred their handling of the letter to the Independent Office for Police Conduct, the U.K.'s police watchdog. Meghan's father pleaded to meet his grandchildren, Archie and Lilibet, and said he was "very concerned" that he wouldn't live long enough to meet them. "We’re at a point where, I think both of us, we should grow up, talk, make up for the sake of the children," the former Hollywood lighting director said during an appearance on "Good Morning Britain." "This is ridiculous. Almost four years. It’s crazy." "My message for the kids is that they have two loving families," he said at the time. "… I think it’s important for them to know that they have two families, and eventually they’re going to grow up, and they’re going to want to know more about them." PRINCE HARRY MAKING 'BIG MISTAKE' THAT COULD DESTROY CHANCE OF ROYAL RECONCILIATION: EXPERT Markle Sr. underwent a "life-or-death" leg amputation in 2025 and spoke to the Daily Mail about wanting to reconcile with Meghan. "I've always said I am open to reconciling with my daughter," he told the outlet. "I have never stopped loving her. I don't want to die estranged from Meghan. I want to meet my grandkids. It might be nice to meet her husband too." A spokesperson confirmed to People that the Duchess of Sussex had contacted her father. "I can confirm she has reached out to her father," the spokesperson said. Meghan's representative did not share any further details about her contact with her father. Thomas Markle Jr. told the Daily Mail his father's leg was amputated Dec. 3 in the Philippines, where the pair had been living since the beginning of 2025. According to Thomas Jr., a blood clot in his father's thigh cut off circulation to his leg, leading to the surgery. GET ENTERTAINMENT SCOOP DELIVERED RIGHT TO YOUR EMAIL BY CLICKING HERE The Sun reported that Meghan's half-brother, Thomas Markle Jr., found "hundreds, if not thousands" of images depicting child sexual abuse in boxes at his father's former home in Cebu, Philippines, while clearing out the property. Markle Jr. told the newspaper that he reported the images to police in the Philippines and contacted the Federal Bureau of Investigation in the U.S. Philippine authorities confirmed they were investigating the allegations against Markle Sr. National Bureau of Investigation Director Melvin Matibag told The Associated Press that the FBI had requested the agency's assistance in investigating allegations made by Markle Jr. against his father. Philippine Interior Secretary Jonvic Remulla separately told the AP that the national police, which he helps oversee, were also investigating Markle Jr.'s allegations, without elaborating. Markle Sr. denied the allegations against him in a statement to the Daily Mail. "I’m shocked, I’m hurt, and I’m very upset that my son is making these accusations against me," he was quoted as saying. "I could never do what I’m being accused of. It’s the worst thing anyone could accuse me of." LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING?

"I am deeply distressed at the news that has come to light in the last 24 hours, and my thoughts are with any children who may have been harmed," she said in a statement shared with Fox News Digital at the time.  WATCH: BUCKINGHAM PALACE REPORTEDLY ‘BLINDSIDED’ BY ARREST OF MEGHAN MARKLE'S FATHER "I hope it can now be understood that, despite certain media publications' distortion over the years, any distance from my father and my choice to not allow him to have contact with our children, was for one reason: to protect them," she wrote. "I trusted that the authorities were doing the same for other families. "Although the breadth of what has now been uncovered is more sickening than one could ever imagine, my sincerest hope is that justice will be fully served and that the priority remains the safety and protection of innocent children." SEE PHOTOS OF MEGHAN MARKLE GROWING UP WITH HER FATHER THOMAS MARKLE SR. FBI agents searched two storage units registered to Markle Sr. in California, according to the criminal complaint obtained by Fox News Digital. Authorities recovered approximately 78 items — including film negatives, slides and books containing suspected child sexual abuse material — from the two storage units rented by Markle Sr. in California. Investigators said Markle Sr. had rented the units since 2008. A longtime acquaintance identified Markle Sr. as the adult man appearing with a prepubescent girl in two photographs recovered by investigators. Authorities also traced details in some photographs to a hotel in the Philippines. READ THE COMPLAINT: Authorities searched a storage unit rented by Markle Sr. in Mexico and recovered another cache of suspected child sexual abuse material, according to a report from The Sun.

Federal prosecutors charged him with one count of possession of child pornography in a criminal complaint filed Nov. 5. After appearing in federal court, Markle Sr. was released without bond. He was placed on home detention at the memory care facility where he had been arrested. A judge also ordered a psychiatric evaluation to determine whether he could understand the proceedings and assist in his defense. Markle Sr. has denied the allegations against him. The charge carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in federal prison if he is convicted, according to the Justice Department.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef0963bcfe2a61c5f4ae56 GOP eyes Senate comeback after Democratic bloodbath, but another political nightmare could await te 2026-11-07T11:20:03.334Z GOP eyes Senate comeback after Democratic bloodbath, but another political nightmare could await Republican control of the Senate could return as soon as the 2028 general election, but only if the party can pull off a series of crucial victories in competitive races, a possibility that seems distant following Tuesday night's devastating Democratic sweep. As of publication, Democrats and independents who caucus with them have secured 54 Senate seats, a total that could grow to as many as 56 pending election calls in Mississippi and Alaska. Assuming Republicans hold the vice presidency in 2028, far from a guarantee, they would need to flip at least four seats during that election cycle to win the Senate back. While there are ample pick-up opportunities for Republicans in 2028 if the party can return to its typical national performance benchmarks, several vulnerable GOP-held seats could complicate their efforts to retake the upper chamber. DEMS FLIPS YET ANOTHER SENATE SEAT IN TRUMP COUNTRY AMID SWEEPING GOP UPSETS Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley, for instance, turned 93 in September and faces a decision about whether to seek another term in 2028, when Republicans will be defending his seat in a state where Democrat Josh Turek just defeated Republican Ashley Hinson by roughly four percentage points. His departure before then could also give Iowa's incoming Democratic governor the opportunity to appoint a temporary replacement. Another possibility that could make the GOP's path back to a majority even more uncertain is the admission of Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C., to the union as full states. Such a move would likely require the Democratic-led Senate to abolish or overcome the legislative filibuster, something lawmakers representing more moderate or competitive states may balk at, as well as support in the House and either presidential approval or enough votes to override a veto. CHUCK SCHUMER AFTER SWEEPING DEMOCRATIC MIDTERM VICTORIES: 'I'LL BE RE-ELECTED AS MAJORITY LEADER' Even if the filibuster is done away with, President Donald Trump could veto admittance bills. Democrats currently lack the numbers to override such a veto. If Republicans lose the White House in 2028, however, Democrats could have a clearer path to advancing statehood for Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C., a move that would add four Senate seats and potentially complicate Republican efforts to win back the chamber, though significant political and legal obstacles would remain. Assuming none of that happens, Democrats will be defending six Senate seats that could offer Republicans potential pick-up opportunities in 2028. Republicans will have pick-up opportunities in New Hampshire, Nevada, Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania and Ohio that year. They will, however, be forced to defend vulnerable Senate seats in Wisconsin, Iowa and North Carolina. Indiana, which saw a significant blue shift, also has a Senate seat up for contention in 2028, while Nebraska, where independent Dan Osborn mounted a competitive but unsuccessful challenge to Republican Sen. Pete Ricketts on Tuesday, will not hold another regularly scheduled Senate election until 2030. While 2028 could deliver Republicans a majority if they play their cards right, another defeat on the scale of 2026 could put the Democratic Party dangerously close to the 60-vote threshold necessary to invoke cloture and counter a filibuster. "It may be unlikely, but I do think it's feasible," Heritage Action government relations director Chip Wyatt told Fox News Digital. "We're just as capable of having a night like the Democrats had on Tuesday in 2028. If anything, that election, the election we had on Tuesday has shown us that two years is a very, very long time in politics. think if you had told anybody in 2024 that this is what happened in 2028, they probably wouldn't believe you." For Republicans to have a good night in 2028, Wyatt argued that conservatives would have to focus on affordability issues while Democrats overstep their mandate by allowing the fringes of their party to dictate its policy agenda. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz took a similar line in reacting to Tuesday night's election results. "We will rebuild as a true blue-collar party, not by embracing socialism, but by being real free-market conservatives. The way we built the Texas economic miracle in the first place, and we will build and rebuild America as well," he said. "When the zealots overreach, and they will, we will stand ready to lead in the direction of freedom, of prosperity, of safety and security and common sense. We will return to a new dawn of freedom in America." 2030 features slightly fewer pick-ups for the GOP with a comparable number of states to defend. While Republicans will have pick-up opportunities in Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin and Michigan, they will also be forced to defend seats in Texas, Ohio and Pennsylvania. MAJORITY LEADER THUNE SAYS SENATE GOP WON'T 'STAND IDLY BY' AS DEMOCRATS TAKE CONTROL OF CONGRESS The 2032 election will feature the same regularly scheduled Senate seats contested in 2026, giving Republicans another opportunity to retake deep-red states they blundered this year, such as Kansas and South Carolina. Historically, however, some moderate Democrats have managed to hang on to state-wide offices in typically red states, making a reversion far from a certainty. Former West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin, for instance, managed to survive multiple GOP challenges in the deep-red state. Kansas and Kentucky, similarly, have Democratic governors that survived Republican challenges in races that received national attention. While many Republicans, and even some Democrats, have suggested liberal pick-ups in deep red states could be one-cycle wonders, Wyatt cautioned against complacency. "We should always assume the politicians want to get re-elected and so the senators in the deep red states that have been recently elected as Democrats are going to want to keep their seats and so they're going to be very strategic in how they vote and in what kind of bills they're introducing," Wyatt said. "In some of these deep red states, it's going to be difficult for [Democrats] to hold on to these seats ... Now granted, I've already said two years is a long time, six years is an even longer time. So who knows what kind of political landscape we're looking at in 2032 but Republicans should definitely start off with a strong advantage in many of these states ... But it's never wise to counter chickens before they hatch." Electoral politics is famously unpredictable. Nobody in 2024, for instance, envisioned South Carolina or Kansas sending Democrats to the Senate in 2026. It is possible that the Republican path to a Senate majority, or lack thereof, will be comparably surprising.

"It is simpler than people think," Christopher Gardner, Ph.D., a nutrition scientist at Stanford University and author of the book "Food Sense: What to Eat and Why," told Fox News Digital. He believes that the 80/20 rule is a solid framework for a healthy diet. The approach encourages people to make nutritious food choices about 80% of the time while allowing flexibility for indulgences the remaining 20%. NEW PROTEIN RANKING NAMES UNEXPECTED WINNER OVER BEEF, SALMON AND EGGS Gardner also works with the Stanford Prevention Research Center, where a big part of his role is trying to figure out how to get people to follow guidelines that "everybody knows" but doesn't necessarily follow, such as eating a healthier diet, exercising more and smoking less, he said. He advises against trying to follow all the latest wellness trends because, sometimes, they're not based on factual information. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTER He doesn't recommend cutting out an entire food group or following a strict diet. Rather, he encourages a gradual approach. An easy way to start improving an unhealthy diet is to incorporate more vegetables, fruits and minimally processed foods. He emphasized the importance of eating legumes, adding that he feels they're an underutilized component of a healthy diet. CLICK HERE FOR MORE LIFESTYLE NEWS "Asian cultures eat a lot of tempe, tofu, edamame and soy, and Latin American cultures eat a whole bunch of bean and grain dishes, and Indian culture eats a lot of lentil dals," he said, noting that legumes are usually inexpensive and versatile. They're also a great source of protein, Gardner added, as well as fiber, which many people don't consume enough of, he pointed out. Americans also eat too much junk food, he said, adding that people often know what the healthier option is, but they still choose the "chips and candy and cake and snacks and mocha frappé frappuccino instead of black coffee." "I don't think the ultra-processed thing is like, oh, we never understood it before, and now we do. I don't really think people know that it's 200 cosmetic additives," he said. TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ Context matters when determining the "healthier" choice, Gardner noted, using the example of coffee versus tea. Coffee and tea by themselves are unproblematic, he noted. The issue lies in the sugar, dairy and other ingredients that might be added. "I can show you volumes of studies that both are good for you," Gardner said, noting that both contain antioxidants, but the additives are what determine which is "healthier." Ultimately, different things work for different people, Gardner said, and he stays open-minded. What people eat is much more than just science, he acknowledged, adding that "food is comfort and food is culture and food is other things." "Whatever you screw up today, you get a do-over tomorrow and the day after," he said, so "give yourself a little grace, a little patience, a little love." Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aef025bbcfe2a61c5f4ad1b American war hero details dire living conditions US troops face as Hegseth taps him to 'fix' it te 2026-11-07T10:50:03.390Z American war hero details dire living conditions US troops face as Hegseth taps him to 'fix' it Some troops have gone a year without hot water. Others are sleeping in their cars to escape barracks without air conditioning. And some are asking for little more than drywall, spackle and paint so they can make repairs themselves. Those are among the conditions Medal of Honor recipient Dakota Meyer says he has encountered while touring military installations on a mission from War Secretary Pete Hegseth: Fix a barracks system plagued by decades of neglect. "I would tell you that there's only a couple that I've seen that are good," Meyer told Fox News Digital in an interview Thursday. Meyer, who serves as senior adviser to the Pentagon's Barracks Task Force, has visited more than eight installations across the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps since taking on the assignment and plans to visit 30 before the end of the year. "What I thought was gonna be a professional job very quickly turned into personal," Meyer said. DAKOTA MEYER TALKS SERVICE, BLASTS CONTROVERSIAL DESIGN FOR GLOBAL WAR ON TERROR MEMORIAL At one installation, Meyer recalled asking a 19-year-old service member what she would change about her living conditions if she could "wave a magic wand." "If she could just have a hot shower," Meyer recalled. "It's absolutely heartbreaking." The Pentagon's barracks problems long predate Hegseth and have survived repeated attempts at reform.  A sweeping 2023 Government Accountability Office investigation documented serious health and safety hazards and found that the department lacked reliable information about the condition of its own barracks, could not determine how much of its facilities spending went toward them and provided insufficient oversight. Congress and the military services have since committed billions toward improvements, including initiatives ranging from the Marine Corps' "Barracks 2030" to a Navy overhaul of unaccompanied housing. Yet serious problems persist. As of this year, 12 of GAO's 31 recommendations remained outstanding. Hegseth has sought to centralize the effort under a department-wide task force and accelerate improvements, with Meyer saying the secretary has made clear that identifying problems is no longer enough. "The secretary has made it clear to me he doesn't expect me to observe this, study it, or to make it better. He expects me to fix it," Meyer said. "And that's exactly what we're going to do." Meyer, the only Medal of Honor hero to reenlist after receiving the award, said one of his first requests was for Hegseth to give the task force an "authoritative role," rather than simply create another layer of oversight. The goal, he said, was to give the team the ability "to go out and make decisions, to be able to have impact, to be able to make change, and to be able to direct where that funding goes and how fast it gets to our service members." EXCLUSIVE: HEGSETH TO DOUBLE CUTS TO GENERALS, ADMIRALS IN MAJOR PENTAGON SHAKEUP Meyer argued the problem is not simply a lack of money. Funding shortfalls, continuing resolutions and years of deferred maintenance have all contributed, he said, but so have layers of contracting rules and bureaucracy that can slow even relatively basic repairs. A separate watchdog review found the Pentagon facing a $285 billion maintenance backlog across its broader military facilities' portfolio, underscoring the scale of the department's infrastructure challenges. "When you look at the contracting aspect, it's easier for people to say no," Meyer said. Funding is also part of the problem, according to Meyer, who pointed to Congress' failure to enact full-year defense appropriations for fiscal 2027. The Pentagon is currently operating under a continuing resolution through Dec. 11, which generally funds ongoing programs at prior-year rates while lawmakers negotiate a broader spending package. "When you can't get a budget, when you're waiting on Congress to pass a budget, to be able to get the funding there, I mean, that is a huge issue," Meyer said. But he also argued that the Pentagon has too often measured progress by how much money has been obligated or put under contract, rather than whether troops actually see improvements in their living conditions. "Our service members don't, they don't live in our budget lines," Meyer said. "They live in the rooms that those budget lines are there to impact." For Meyer, that has meant getting out of Washington and hearing directly from the troops living with the consequences. "You can't fix these problems or understand these problems by standing on the carpet of the Pentagon," he said. "You've got to go out there and talk to these service members." What he has heard, Meyer said, is striking partly because of how little troops are asking for. "They're asking for a hot shower. They're asking for a place to wash their clothes. They're asking for a door that locks. They're asking to be able to go to sleep in a place that doesn't have mold. I mean, they're asking for light bulbs." "They're willing to be part of the solution," he added. Meyer stopped short of placing the blame solely on installation commanders, saying many want to improve conditions but have been constrained by a system that has normalized poor barracks for years. "I think this is a multidimensional problem, and it's complex," he said. "I think that you have commanders out there that want to take care of their service members. I've seen that across the board. But ... they still have to have the ability to do that." Meyer was far less forgiving of previous Pentagon leadership, arguing that years of investments and reform initiatives had failed to translate into adequate living conditions for troops. "Don't kid yourself," Meyer said. "In the past ... it wasn't a priority to the leadership." Previous administrations and military leaders did launch barracks improvement efforts and devoted billions of dollars to construction, renovation and maintenance, even as government watchdogs continued to document serious deficiencies. Meyer said Hegseth has made the issue a personal priority. "We have the Secretary of War who is putting people first, and he's not just saying that, he's doing it through his actions," Meyer said. Meyer has put his own name on whether the latest effort succeeds, saying previously that if the barracks aren't fixed, there is "only one person to blame" — himself. Asked what "fixed" would actually look like, Meyer offered a simpler standard than any Pentagon metric. "People are living in places that I would be okay for my daughters living in," he said.

DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST SWEEPS INTO DC MAYOR'S OFFICE, SIGNALS OPENNESS TO WORKING WITH TRUMP In total, the four cities are home to roughly 14 million people. That figure does not include neighboring suburbs, which could still feel the effects of policies enacted within city limits through crime, real estate values and the broader business climate. Problems in a city can spill over into surrounding communities, while suburban residents who work in the city may also be directly affected. Counting the population in the metro areas of those four cities, roughly 44 million people could be affected either positively and negatively by the socialist policies enacted by the four mayors. DSA LEADER DISMISSES $49T COST ESTIMATE FOR SOCIALIST POLICIES AS A 'MADE-UP NUMBER' "This makes LA the fourth large city that will now have a socialist mayor, joining New York, Washington DC and Seattle," Heritage Foundation fellow Mike Gonzalez posted on X Thursday. "Chicago's mayor is a buffoon, but he doesn't identify as DSA. America used to be an impregnable fortress against Marxism, then Marxists took over universities." The socialist victories were not limited to city halls. Voters also elected seven DSA-backed or affiliated candidates to the House: Claire Valdez, Brand Lander and Darializa Avila Chevalier of New York, Chris Rabb of Pennsylvania, Melat Kiros of Colorado, Donavan McKinney of Michigan and Angela Gonzales-Torres of California. Several other candidates associated with socialist policies also entered Congress or were re-elected on Tuesday. A recent Fox News national poll indicated 32% of voters have a favorable view of socialism, with 64% seeing it in an unfavorable way. But the favorable rating matches an all-time high, first reached five years ago, since Fox News first began asking the question in 2019. And a September Gallup poll found that 43% of Americans had a positive image of socialism, the highest level since the polling organization began tracking the question in 2010. The Fox News poll found that 51% of voters had a favorable view of capitalism, compared with 32% who viewed socialism favorably. Another 46% had an unfavorable view of capitalism.

Agents discovered more than 1,435 pounds of suspected cocaine valued at $9.8 million during inspections at the San Clemente Border Patrol checkpoint last month, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). On Oct. 25, agents assigned to the San Diego Sector referred the two vehicles for additional inspection after observing "suspicious behavior," including one driver attempting to reverse out of the checkpoint. A Border Patrol canine alerted agents to both vehicles, leading to the discovery of 550 vacuum-sealed packages concealed inside black garbage bags. CBP OFFICERS SEIZE OVER $2.8M IN COCAINE AND METH IN BACK-TO-BACK BUSTS AT CALIFORNIA PORT OF ENTRY Field tests yielded presumptive positive results for cocaine, CBP said. "With this seizure, we are heading for a record year in narcotics interdictions here at the San Clemente checkpoint," San Clemente Station Patrol Agent in Charge J.D. Scott said in a statement. "A few years ago, our agents were deployed to the immediate border and processed hundreds of illegal aliens," Scott continued. "With illegal border entries in San Diego at all-time lows, we now have the agents needed to keep our checkpoint open longer and to maintain a strong Border Patrol presence along our I-5 corridor." CBP OFFICERS SEIZE $67 MILLION IN ILLEGAL DRUGS AT SAN DIEGO BORDER PORTS, DHS SAYS Both drivers were arrested, and the Drug Enforcement Administration took custody of the suspects and suspected narcotics pending federal prosecution. The seizures come amid the Trump administration's broader crackdown on drug cartels, foreign gangs, transnational criminal organizations and human smuggling and drug trafficking networks. In a separate case in May, authorities in the Southern District of California uncovered more than a ton of cocaine worth an estimated $45 million linked to an alleged cross-border drug tunnel. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aeeeaebbcfe2a61c5f4a8e0 Top Gulf official offers glimmer of hope on Trump-Iran nuclear talks as threat of war hangs over region te 2026-11-07T09:10:03.405Z Top Gulf official offers glimmer of hope on Trump-Iran nuclear talks as threat of war hangs over region DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — A senior United Arab Emirates official says he is cautiously optimistic about negotiations between the United States and Iran, citing progress through Qatari mediation over the past days, even as fears of renewed military confrontation continue to grip the Middle East. "We see some progress. … We hope that both sides will be able to reach a point where they will start building trust and engaging in a way to avoid the war, to find a political solution. … I am a little bit optimistic, but I don't exclude the other option," Dr. Ali Rashid Al Nuaimi, chairman of the Defense, Interior and Foreign Affairs Committee of the UAE's Federal National Council, told Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview. His remarks came as Reuters reported on Nov. 5 that Iran had submitted a new nuclear proposal to Washington through Qatar. Tehran, however, continued to insist that the U.S. meet seven conditions before negotiations could proceed, including sanctions relief and an end to the American naval blockade. IS THIS TRUMP’S LAST ‘LAST CHANCE’? CEASELESS STRING OF BROKEN CEASEFIRES FUELS DOUBT OVER IRAN DEAL President Donald Trump has not ruled out further military operations, while Iran has threatened broader retaliation if fighting resumes. For the UAE, which endured thousands of Iranian missile and drone attacks earlier this year, the possibility of a diplomatic breakthrough offers hope. But its leaders are making clear that hope cannot replace preparedness. "We plan for the worst. We hope for the best. … We always make sure that we are ready to deal with all the challenges or the threats," Al Nuaimi said. That combination of optimism and caution was evident during Fox News Digital's reporting trip across the Emirates, where daily life appeared remarkably normal despite the uncertainty surrounding the country. On an evening in downtown Dubai, restaurant terraces were packed, tourists filled the streets and crowds gathered around a fountain show set to music that moved between Arabic songs and Western pop hits. Businesses were operating, international visitors were arriving and the city continued to project an image of prosperity and openness. IRAN’S STRAIT OF HORMUZ SCHEME COULD DERAIL ONE GULF NATION’S BRIGHT FUTURE The contrast was just as striking in Abu Dhabi, where Fox News Digital attended the opening of ADIPEC 2026, one of the world's largest energy conferences, against the backdrop of continuing tensions with Iran and the disruption of the Strait of Hormuz. Days before the conference, ExxonMobil and Chevron executives had canceled their planned appearances because of security concerns, Reuters reported on Oct. 29. Yet inside the exhibition halls, delegates from around the world gathered to discuss investment, announce partnerships and explore technological solutions to the energy crisis. It was a demonstration of the UAE's determination to keep its economy moving while preparing for a security environment that has changed dramatically. TRUMP ADMIN THREATENS IRAN WITH 'CONSEQUENCES' AS ALLIES CONVENE AMID THREATS OF POST-ELECTION ESCALATION The UAE has already paid a significant price for its proximity to the conflict. More than 3,000 Iranian missiles and drones targeted the Emirates during the war, according to figures cited by The Associated Press on Nov. 2. The attacks caused casualties and damage to civilian infrastructure.Although no new Iranian attacks had targeted the UAE since May, the threat of renewed confrontation has kept the country on alert. Al Nuaimi emphasized that while the UAE considers itself a nation committed to peace, it will not hesitate to protect its population. "Every nation, when it is attacked, [has] the right to defend their people, their sovereignty, their nation," he said. But he also drew a clear distinction between the Iranian regime and the Iranian people, who are repressed by the regime. "The Iranian people deserve to be respected, accepted. They have great values, great civilization, and they are our neighbor." MIDDLE EAST TAKES CENTER STAGE AT UN AS REGIONAL LEADERS CONFRONT IRAN WAR, GAZA AND HOUTHI THREAT Despite the confrontation with Iran, Al Nuaimi rejected the suggestion that the UAE's relationship with Washington should be judged primarily through the current conflict or any particular U.S. administration. "We don't see our relationship with the United States through these conflicts, through security and defense. No, it's a partnership. It's a strategic partnership. It is a sustainable partnership. … Our main partnership is with the United States as a nation, with the American people." He emphasized that the relationship extends across education, medicine, technology, energy and investment, and is intended to endure political changes in Washington. "We don't look at the United States through a certain administration. Our engagement and partnership with the United States ... [is] with the nation. It's with the people. ... We have the flexibility and the ability to [adapt] and engage with any administration." The comments come at a sensitive time for Gulf governments, whose security relationships with Washington have become more consequential as Iran threatens regional infrastructure and international shipping. At ADIPEC's opening ceremony on Nov. 2, Dr. Sultan Al Jaber, the UAE's minister of industry and advanced technology and chief executive of state-owned energy giant ADNOC, emphasized that the country's ability to withstand the crisis was the result of years of preparation. "We did not write our resilience playbook during this disruption. We wrote it years before," Al Jaber told the audience. The message was consistent with what officials and analysts repeatedly emphasized during Fox News Digital's visit: the UAE intends to remain a reliable international partner despite the possibility of another regional escalation. GULF COUNTRIES STRONGLY CONDEMN IRAN'S DRONE ATTACK ON BAHRAIN AS RISING TENSIONS THREATEN MOU In a separate exclusive interview with Fox News Digital in Dubai, Mohammed Baharoon, director general of the Emirati research center B'huth, argued that the confrontation with Iran has fundamentally expanded the meaning of national security. "Our resilience now becomes our deterrence," Baharoon said. The UAE's security strategy, he explained, involves far more than intercepting missiles and drones. It also means ensuring reliable energy supplies, food security, functioning infrastructure and the ability to maintain international commerce during a crisis. For Baharoon, the conflict cannot be understood as a single confrontation between Washington and Tehran. He described three interconnected wars: the initial American-Israeli campaign against Iran, Tehran's subsequent attacks on Gulf states and Iran's disruption of international shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. "The second war was Iran's attack on the GCC, because that attack was also unprovoked," Baharoon said, referring to the Gulf Cooperation Council. He described the disruption of shipping as a separate confrontation with the global economy, arguing that the consequences extend to countries far removed from the Middle East. Despite his criticism of Tehran, Baharoon rejected the idea that Iran should permanently be treated as an enemy. Its population, economic potential and geographical importance, he argued, could make it an important contributor to regional prosperity if its leadership shifted away from confrontation. For the UAE, the challenge now is to prepare for the possibility of another confrontation without abandoning the diplomatic and economic relationships it has spent decades building. The crowded streets of Dubai and busy exhibition halls of Abu Dhabi reflect a country determined to move forward, even as the threat of war remains close. Whether the latest negotiations with Iran lead to a breakthrough or another round of fighting, the Emirates is betting that its resilience will allow it to weather the next crisis without losing sight of the future it is trying to build. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aeeeaeabcfe2a61c5f4a8d7 Democrats set sights on Elon Musk probe after midterm wins, but Pritzker draws a surprising line te 2026-11-07T09:10:02.631Z Democrats set sights on Elon Musk probe after midterm wins, but Pritzker draws a surprising line Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., and Gov. JB Pritzker, D-Ill., are calling for an investigation into the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), previously led by Elon Musk, as talks have heated up among Democrats to launch a probe into the multibillionaire. "I had no specific plan," Raskin told Fox News Digital about the potential investigations. "Look…DOGE was a catastrophe for America, and at least one committee, I feel pretty certain, will investigate it. It needs to investigate it." Musk has emerged as a potential target of Democratic oversight, with some lawmakers calling for scrutiny of his time as head of the DOGE. The calls for an investigation come as Democrats have started rallying the party to look into corruption under the Trump administration after coming out victorious in midterms. SCHUMER, JEFFRIES SIDESTEP QUESTIONS ON NUKING FILIBUSTER, LAUNCHING ELON MUSK PROBE AFTER BLUE WAVE The tech CEO helped launch DOGE at the start of President Donald Trump's second term to root out waste and be more transparent about the federal government's spending. DOGE's efforts included deferred resignations and buyouts of employees at federal agencies and contributed to a significant downsizing of the federal workforce, which contracted by about 250,000 employees during 2025, according to the Government Accountability Office (GAO). Calls for investigations into DOGE also started over concerns about the department allegedly having access to Americans’ sensitive information. "I mean the whole thing was premised on a lie, and our private information was completely compromised by it," Raskin said. Despite Pritzker saying he had never "heard anything like that" about a potential probe of Musk and DOGE, he agreed that DOGE is worthy of an investigation. PROGRESSIVE GROUP'S 182-PAGE BLUEPRINT MAPS OUT POTENTIAL DEM INVESTIGATIONS INTO TRUMP, CORPORATE ALLIES "I think there should be a lot of inspection of what DOGE did," Pritzker told Fox News Digital. "I think that was pretty awful. " But Pritzker didn’t seem so sure that needing an investigation into DOGE also warranted an investigation into Musk himself. "I don't know about focusing on one person," Pritzker said when asked about investigating Musk. ELON MUSK BLAMES TRUMP, US MILITARY FOR SPACEX RESTRICTIONS UKRAINE WARNS COULD HAVE DEADLY CONSEQUENCES Democratic lawmakers have also suggested looking into Musk’s companies' multibillion-dollar contracts with the federal government and, more recently, his role in cutting internet access to the Ukrainian military. After the midterm elections resulted in a sweeping blue wave, Democrats in both chambers of Congress have vowed to use investigative committees and subpoena powers to probe not only Musk, but Trump and much of his administration — including trying to impeach Trump.

The two candidates campaigned together on a conservative platform in the officially nonpartisan election. According to Scottsdale’s unofficial results, as of November 5 at 8:30 p.m., Ugenti-Rita led with 51,141 votes, or 33.91% of votes recorded in the contest. Graham followed with 50,992 votes, or 33.81%, while Zubia received 48,678 votes, or 32.28%. Those totals put Ugenti-Rita ahead of Zubia by 2,463 votes and Graham ahead by 2,314 votes. The two candidates receiving the most votes win the seats. Results remain unofficial pending the City Council’s canvass. Brian Anderson congratulated the two candidates in a post on X, writing, “Congratulations to @MichelleUgenti and @BarrySGraham! Amazing news for families and businesses in Scottsdale.” Councilwoman Solange Whitehead also congratulated Graham and Ugenti-Rita and thanked Zubia. Whitehead expressed respect for Zubia and thanked Scottsdale residents for participating in the election. Graham, a certified public accountant who has served on the council since 2023, is positioned to return for a second term. Ugenti-Rita previously represented Scottsdale in the Arizona Legislature for 12 years. The contest began with eight candidates competing for three council seats in the July 21 primary. Whitehead secured reelection outright, leaving two seats to be decided in November. Graham, Ugenti-Rita, Zubia, and former Councilman Bob Littlefield advanced to the general election. Littlefield formally withdrew August 4, leaving three candidates on the November ballot. He stepped aside to avoid splitting votes with Graham and Ugenti-Rita, who shared his opposition to the apartment component of Axon’s headquarters development. The Axon dispute followed the council’s 2024 approval of rezoning for the Taser manufacturer’s headquarters campus and associated housing. Residents organized through Taxpayers Against Awful Apartment Zoning Exemptions (TAAAZE) gathered signatures seeking a public vote on the rezoning. Subsequent state legislation, SB 1543, blocked that referendum effort. In November 2025, the council approved a compromise agreement in a 4–3 vote allowing 600 apartments and 600 condominiums across two construction phases. Mayor Lisa Borowsky defended the agreement as a reduction in the project’s residential density. Axon thanked Borowsky, Vice Mayor Adam Kwasman, Whitehead, and Councilwoman Maryann McAllen for supporting the deal. The dispute carried into the council campaign. In June, Graham, Ugenti-Rita, and Littlefield sent a letter to Axon’s board alleging that company executives were financing efforts to defeat candidates opposed to the apartment component. Arizonans for a Better Future received $500,000 from Axon, $500,000 from CEO Rick Smith, $100,000 from President Josh Isner, and $20,000 from Chief Legal Officer Isaiah Fields. Water policy also divided the candidates. Zubia supported expanding wastewater purification for drinking water. Ugenti-Rita opposed adding purified recycled water directly to the drinking supply, while Graham described the option as a last resort. Ugenti-Rita also campaigned against Flock license plate readers. In an August 10 campaign statement, she wrote, “I oppose Flock cameras because I believe the right to privacy outweighs the benefits of putting citizens under continuous, automated surveillance.” The standings shifted as ballots were counted. Zubia led in the first returns Tuesday evening before subsequent updates moved Graham and Ugenti-Rita into the top two positions. The successful candidates will take office in January 2027.

Ron DeSantis fired back Friday at a report that he is preparing another White House bid in 2028, accusing The Washington Post of fabricating claims that he has started reaching out to political consultants about a potential campaign. "The Washington Post is fabricating this out of whole cloth," DeSantis wrote on X. "I have not reached out to anybody about running for anything." "Just another pathetic attempt to garner clicks. Using anonymous sources of course!" he added. The Post reported Friday, citing three people briefed on his plans, that DeSantis was preparing to seek the Republican presidential nomination in 2028. VANCE, CRUZ AND DESANTIS DIAGNOSE GOP'S MIDTERM DISASTER AS BATTLE OVER PARTY'S FUTURE BEGINS The newspaper reported that DeSantis, who unsuccessfully ran for president in 2024 and is term-limited after 2026, had already reached out to at least one national political consultant about working on a prospective campaign. A federal super PAC tied to DeSantis also sent out a fundraising text earlier this week, The Post reported. DeSantis continued pushing back against the report in exchanges with social media users. When one user expressed hope that The Post's reporting was accurate, the governor replied that he was "sorry to disappoint." DeSantis also responded to another user who suggested political consultants may have been using his name to attract attention. "Probably the case. But maybe just made up by WaPo," he wrote. FIRST MUSLIM SENATOR, FIRST BLACK FEMALE GOVERNOR: 2026 MIDTERM ELECTION RESULTS MAKE HISTORY Speculation surrounding DeSantis' political future comes just days after Republicans suffered sweeping defeats in the midterm elections, losing control of both chambers of Congress and several traditionally Republican strongholds. The Sunshine State, however, remained a bright spot for the GOP, with Republican Byron Donalds winning the governor's race. "This is close to an extinction-level event for Republicans," DeSantis said Wednesday, warning that among the nation's 10 most populous states, Florida would be the only one with Republican control of its government. DESANTIS CALLS GOP MIDTERM LOSSES 'EXTINCTION-LEVEL EVENT' — AND EXPLAINS WHY FLORIDA SURVIVED DeSantis previously sought the 2024 Republican presidential nomination but suspended his campaign in January 2024 after the Iowa caucuses and endorsed Donald Trump.

Of course, that sometimes makes things awkward, as was the case for Rams safety Quentin Lake. Lake went on the "St. Brown Podcast" hosted by Lions receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown and his brother Equanimeous St. Brown. On the show, Lake talked about an interception he made on Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers and was not complimentary of quarterback Justin Herbert's play. JUSTIN HERBERT, MADISON BEER GRILLED BY NFL LEGEND MICHAEL IRVIN AFTER EMBARRASSING CHARGERS LOSS "He was throwing deli meat out there," Lake said on the St. Brown Podcast. "He's seeing ghosts. I don't know what's going on, but we knew we were gonna get a couple. At least one." Alright, just a couple of guys being dudes, talking smack. Also, have you seen the 0-7 Chargers this year? "Throwing deli meat" might be a compliment compared to what they've done at times during the season. Seeing ghosts would actually be a welcome explanation. So, no harm, no foul. Nothing wrong with a little smack talk in the NFL. Oh, wait. He apologized? CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE According to The Los Angeles Times, Lake sent an apology to Herbert over text message, but had not heard back. "I don’t know if he read it," Lake said. "He probably says, 'I don’t care about it anymore. I’m not trying to see this. It doesn’t matter. You said what you said.' But at the same time I … felt like it was right for me to at least say, 'Hey, man, I didn’t mean it in any disrespectful way.'" Come on, Justin: He meant you were throwing deli meat in the most respectful way imaginable! Good on Lake for apologizing. But let's be honest, there's nothing wrong with a little off-field smack talk. And if Herbert is offended by his passes being compared to someone flinging some Boar's Head around, then maybe work on not leading the league with ten interceptions. That should be the rule: as long as you're at the top of the picks-thrown leaderboard, everyone gets to say you're throwing deli meat.

Woods, the son of 15-time major winner Tiger, announced earlier this year his commitment to play golf at Florida State University. The Woods family, including Tiger's ex-wife, Elin Nordegren, were on hand at Charlie's high school to celebrate. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE Tiger and Elin got divorced after the former's infidelity had been exposed. Charlie announced the commitment in February. "Excited to announce my commitment to play golf at Florida State University — go Noles!" he wrote. "Congratulations Charlie. I'm so proud of you on entering this next chapter of your life," Tiger commented. It is a rare public appearance for Tiger, who has remained out of the spotlight most of the time since he was arrested in March. LIV GOLF IS OFFICIALLY OVER AFTER ANNOUNCING PLANS TO 'WIND-DOWN' OPERATIONS AFTER FAILED RESCUE DEAL He was arrested on charges of DUI following a car crash in which police later found hydrocodone pills in his pocket. It was his second DUI in less than a decade. Woods previously told law enforcement prior to the field sobriety tests that he underwent seven back surgeries and "over 20 operations on his leg." He told law enforcement that "I take a few" prescription medications.  According to an arrest affidavit obtained by Fox News Digital, deputies with the Martin County Sheriff’s Office reported observing several signs of impairment at the scene, noting that the golf legend was "sweating profusely" and that his movements appeared "lethargic and slow." Law enforcement proceeded to perform field sobriety tests because of their suspicions. Woods was instructed to remove his eyeglasses, and the deputy conducting the tests stated that his eyes appeared to be "bloodshot and glassy" and "extremely dilated." Shortly after the arrest, Woods announced he was seeking treatment. Nordegren was reportedly "concerned" after the legendary golfer’s arrest. Tiger's return to the golf course remains to be determined — he has not played since the 2024 Open Championship. When he was arrested in March, he said he was "hoping to" play in April's Masters, but he ultimately missed the entire 2026 season.

The Montrose County Sheriff's Office (MCSO) said the body was found on the floor of the park’s Black Canyon, where many trails run along steep 2,000-foot drop-offs and access to the inner canyon is limited. The hiker was identified as John N. Countryman, 57, of Denver, officials said in a post on Facebook. BODY OF MISSING HIKER FOUND IN OLYMPIC NATIONAL PARK THANKS TO CRUCIAL CLUE The sheriff's office said deputies were first notified last Tuesday around 5:30 p.m. of an "abandoned vehicle parked near mile marker 10 along the South Rim of Black Canyon." Personal belongings were also discovered near Devil's Lookout, one of the park's steepest viewing points. VIDEO SHOWS HIGH-ALTITUDE RESCUE OF HIKER WHO FELL HUNDREDS OF FEET DOWN UTAH'S MOUNT TIMPANOGOS The sheriff's office drone team was then called in to search the canyon for a possible missing person connected to the abandoned vehicle. However, the team was unable to locate anyone before nightfall due to "diminishing daylight," authorities said. Following a search at approximately 6:30 a.m. the following morning, the drone team "confirmed the presence of human remains on the canyon floor." Countryman's body was recovered two days later and transferred to the Montrose County Coroner's Office. The cause and manner of death remain under investigation. Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park in western Colorado features steep, narrow gorges carved by the Gunnison River, with dramatic drop-offs and rugged terrain that can make search and rescue operations challenging.

The Elections department completed two large vote counts Friday, Nov. 6 and will not count over the weekend, Pima County spokesperson Mark Evans told Arizona Luminaria Friday night in an email. A ballot audit by political parties will happen over the weekend, Evans said. The parties randomly select early ballot batches and Election Day vote center ballots and hand count them as prescribed in the Elections Procedures Manual, Evans said. All early ballots that were not problem ballots or provisional ballots have been turned over from the Pima County Recorder’s office to Elections and counted.  The Recorder still has the problem and provisionals. Arizona law allows voters five days to “cure” their problem ballot, which usually means the Recorder couldn’t verify the signature., he said. Voters can come in and provide signature proof to get their ballot counted, Evans said. The Pima County Board of Supervisors will meet virtually on Nov. 19 to approve the canvass because state law says the board must approve it no sooner than six days after election day and no later than 20, Evans said.

"If you have information on Iran’s nuclear program, assets, or associated individuals, send it to us via Signal or our Tor-based tip line. You may be eligible for a reward and relocation," the U.S. Department of State’s Rewards for Justice program said in an announcement posted to X. The State Department said it was seeking information on "nuclear scientists and staff, nuclear program-related technologies, and capabilities, associated organizations and personnel." EXPERTS ‘DEEPLY’ CONCERNED OVER IRAN’S WORK AT UNDERGROUND NUCLEAR SITE "The U.S. government remains committed to countering any attempt by Iran to develop a nuclear weapons program," the agency added. The announcement comes as President Donald Trump considers renewed military strikes against Iran while Washington and Tehran continue negotiations over the country's nuclear program. IRANIAN NEGOTIATORS KICKED OUT OF US AS TALKS STALL, TRUMP LAYS OUT 'POSSIBLE' TIMELINE FOR MORE STRIKES Trump reiterated Friday that Iran would never be allowed to obtain a nuclear weapon, pointing to previous U.S. military operations targeting Tehran's nuclear facilities. The president met with his national security team on Thursday to consider renewing military strikes against Iran after Trump promised to wait until after the midterms.

Speaking at the UP Summit at Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Fla., Trump touted the mission as part of his administration's broader ambitions to expand America's presence beyond Earth. "Within the next two years, NASA will launch the first ever nuclear-powered spacecraft to Mars," Trump said. The president described the mission as a step toward eventually sending American astronauts to the planet. TRUMP CALLS ISS CREW FROM HOUSTON TO PRAISE SPACE PIONEERS AND OFFER 'OVAL OFFICE TIME' "We're going to be paving the way for astronauts to plant the Stars and Stripes on the Red planet," he said. The planned mission comes as NASA's Artemis program aims to establish a long-term human presence on the moon before eventually sending astronauts to Mars. Earlier this year, astronauts completed a lunar flyby during the Artemis II mission. Artemis III is scheduled to test spacecraft and landing systems in Earth orbit in 2027, while Artemis IV is expected to attempt a lunar landing in early 2028, before the end of Trump's presidential term. PETER NAVARRO: TRUMP'S ARTEMIS VISION IS NOW FLYING — AND CHINA IS PAYING ATTENTION Trump also outlined his administration's plans to accelerate space exploration and establish a lasting American presence beyond Earth, saying the U.S. "will establish a permanent presence on lunar soil." The president pointed to his recently issued "American Declaration of Freedom in Space," which asserts the right of Americans to explore and settle beyond Earth under U.S. law. "Just this week, I issued the American Declaration of Freedom in Space, proclaiming all of space opened for American settlement, American civilization, and American freedom," Trump said. Before introducing the president, NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman also discussed the space agency's Mars ambitions and long-term goals. CHINA IS RACING TO THE MOON, AND AMERICA MUST CLEAR THE PATH FOR SPACE INNOVATION "We are going to venture farther into the solar system and move closer to that next giant leap," Isaacman said. He described the administration's ultimate goal as the day "American astronauts plant the Stars and Stripes on Mars." The administration has previously outlined broader space ambitions, including plans for a U.S. Space Academy, which Trump announced in August. The proposed institution would train students for careers in the Space Force, NASA and the civilian spaceflight industry. Trump also emphasized his broader vision for American space exploration. "Our calling is to explore. Our purpose is to build, and our aim is always to win," he said.

The rift between Aiyuk and the Niners has gone on for well over a year now after the team voided the remaining guaranteed money he was owed on his extension. The 49ers did so after Aiyuk didn’t participate in rehab sessions for a torn ACL, MCL and meniscus he suffered in his right knee during the 2024 season, which he still has not returned from. Members of the Niners weren't exactly thrilled about him coming back, and head coach Kyle Shanahan made his feelings well known.

"It’s been over for our football team for a long time," Shanahan added. "I don’t hear much except questions about it today. But it’s not too big of a deal for me to answer." "I’m feeling great, feeling healthy. Long recovery process, long rehab process," Aiyuk said as he arrived at the Niners' offices.

Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., said in an interview Thursday that he wasn't "absolutely certain" President Donald Trump would reject Medicare for All legislation, despite skepticism from MS NOW host Chris Hayes about the proposal's chances of becoming law. "Healthcare is a human right. We need Medicare for All, which is now supported by over 60% of Americans, probably 80-90% of Democrats," he said. Hayes interrupted. "But let me just stop you there, Senator, because I mean obviously, I know you believe in this. I've looked at the polling, it's very clear polling on Medicare for All has gone up," he said. "It was very interesting that Abdul El-Sayed was attacked for a million things in that race, but not for that." "But, I think you and I would agree, the odds of Donald Trump signing that into law, pretty small... You're going to have Senate and House, right," he added.  BERNIE SANDERS ADMITS DEMOCRATS FAILED WORKING-CLASS VOTERS ON ECONOMICS, DRIVING THEM TO DONALD TRUMP Sanders disagreed, and pushed back on Hayes, "Hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it. Two points. Point number one, Trump has the constitutional right to veto, if he wants to do it. But we have the constitutional right to represent the American people and to pass the damn thing, and to show the American people that we are sick and tired of maintaining a broken system." "Number two. You know what? Donald Trump may be a bit crazy, but he is not stupid," Sanders continued. "And he is a good politician. And if this guy looks out all over the country, and he says, 'Oh my God, everybody knows the system is broken, you know what, what do I got to lose?' So I am not absolutely certain that Trump would not sign it." "But whether he would or not, our job is to produce it. He wants to veto it, Republicans want to sustain that veto, that is their responsibility. The American people will see it," he added. Sanders has been pushing for Medicare for All for years, and support for it has become more mainstream in the Democratic Party. TRUMP PLEDGES TO VETO 'INSANE' DEM BILLS, PINPOINTS ISSUE PARTIALLY TO BLAME FOR REPUBLICAN LOSSES Psychotherapist and author Jonathan Alpert told Fox News Digital in a statement, that Sanders had been "giving the same speech for decades." "He knows how to tap into people's frustrations, but calling health care a human right doesn't automatically make Medicare for All the answer," he said. "Now Bernie is saying Trump 'may be a bit crazy, but he is not stupid' and calling him 'a good politician.' That's quite a compliment coming from someone who's spent years attacking Trump. Even Bernie seems to recognize what many Democrats refuse to admit: Trump is a skilled politician who knows how to read the public."  "And Bernie knows exactly what he's doing," Alpert continued. "He's appealing to Trump's ego, dangling the possibility of a historic political victory. It's a clever bit of psychological maneuvering. Bernie may think Trump is crazy, but apparently he's smart enough to know that flattering him might get him further than attacking him. Other politicians may want to take a cue from Bernie." TRUMP CONGRATULATES DEMOCRATS AFTER DOMINANT MIDTERMS, SAYS HE LOOKS FORWARD TO WORKING WITH THEM Sanders comments came following Democrats' wave of huge victories in Tuesday's midterms, winning back control of the House and the Senate.

Priya Sundareshan, D-Tucson, will be the president of the Arizona Senate where Democratic lawmakers will hold the majority for the first time since 1992. “We heard you loud and clear. Arizonans rejected partisan extremism and chose a new direction,” Sundareshan said in a statement. “I am proud of what we accomplished together during my time as minority leader, and I’m ready to lead us into the next chapter.” Democrats are expected to grow from a minority of 13 members in the Arizona Senate to 20 members, giving them a supermajority.  Democratic and Republican members of the Arizona House announced who will be taking leadership roles for their caucuses earlier in the day and as of Friday evening, Republicans had not announced who will take the minority leadership roles in the Senate.  Current Senate President Warren Petersen unsuccessfully ran for attorney general and it is unclear who will take his place come January when lawmakers return.  When lawmakers do return, in the Senate, Democrats Christine Marsh, of Phoenix, will take the role of majority leader with Sen. Analise Ortiz, also of  Phoenix, becoming majority whip.  Democratic Sens. Alma Hernandez, and Edgar Soto, both of Tucson, will both be president pro tempore while Sens. Rosanna Gabaldón, of Green Valley, and Aaron Lieberman,  of Paradise Valley, will serve as the majority chairs.  In a statement announcing the appointments, Sundareshan said they will not take the trust voters put in them for granted and intend to focus on lowering the cost of living in the state.  “We’re united in our commitment to earn your trust every day by delivering results you can feel in your daily life,” Sundareshan said. “That means lowering costs for working families, keeping our communities safe, and giving every Arizonan a fair shot at getting ahead.

Naylor was a member of the Guardians from 2022 through this past trade deadline, when he was dealt to the eventual World Series champion Milwaukee Brewers. Naylor was shown dozens of clips of pitches thrown by Clase and Ortiz in 2025 when he was questioned first by defense lawyers for the pitchers. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE The catcher testified that he appeared to call one of the allegedly rigged pitches, saying that a slider away to St. Louis Cardinals player Pedro Pages was a weakness. Naylor also said he was unaware that bettors could wager on specific pitches. Naylor said catchers and pitchers develop a strategy during pregame meetings of how to best pitch to each opponent to get an out based on an analysis of the weak spots in the hitting habits of each batter. He also acknowledged that pitchers, even the best ones, cannot be sure that each pitch will go where it is aimed. Clase, a three-time All-Star and two-time American League Reliever of the Year, had "pretty good command" of his pitches, Naylor said, but his command on his fastball was better than his offspeed. Attorneys elicited from Naylor that he had frequently seen Clase on his cellular phone in the locker room. Prosecutors have alleged that Clase sometimes broke Major League Baseball rules by communicating with gamblers during games. TREVOR BAUER SAYS 'PLAYOFF TEAMS' WANTED TO SIGN HIM BUT TEAM OWNERS, MLB HAVE BLOCKED EVERY MOVE Bettors allegedly won $400,000 from betting platforms on pitches thrown by Clase between 2023 and 2025. Ortiz allegedly joined the scheme in June 2025. In one instance, the indictment alleges, Clase used his phone in the middle of a game to coordinate with a bettor on a pitch he would throw. Clase turned himself into arguably the game's best closer, pitching to a 1.21 ERA in his last full season in 2024, which was good for a third-place finish in the American League Cy Young Award vote. His 2025 ERA was 3.80 by the time he was investigated. Ortiz boasts a lifetime 4.36 ERA, with his best season also coming in 2024 with a 3.32 ERA. Clase inked a five-year, $20 million deal just before opening day in 2022, a few months after finishing fifth in the AL Rookie of the Year voting. Ortiz was making the veteran minimum of $782,600 last season because he was not yet arbitration eligible. OutKick’s Ryan Gaydos, Jackson Thompson and The Associated Press contributed to this report. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee781fbcfe2a61c5f48c66 NYU professor and podcaster calls Elon Musk a 'traitor,' compares him to Soviet spies excuted during Cold War te 2026-11-07T01:00:15.497Z NYU professor and podcaster calls Elon Musk a 'traitor,' compares him to Soviet spies excuted during Cold War NYU professor and podcaster Scott Galloway called SpaceX CEO Elon Musk a "traitor" on Tuesday and compared him to Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, who were convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage for the Soviet Union in a case involving U.S. atomic secrets and later executed. On Election Day, Galloway laid out an alternate history scenario on his "Prof G Podcast" to draw a comparison between Musk's actions and a hypothetical World War II scenario involving aviator Charles Lindbergh. Galloway was referring to reports that SpaceX restricted Starlink satellite internet speeds in Ukraine last month, reportedly disrupting Ukrainian military operations during the country's war with Russia. "I want to propose a scenario," Galloway said. "It's the 30s, we're contemplating re-entering Europe. Paid a huge price in World War I. It's a very unpopular idea to go back, where it feels like we just left, and this innovator, Charles Lindbergh, is saying, ‘No, we should partner with the Germans.’"  ELON MUSK LANDS NEW TRUMP ADMINISTRATION ROLE SHAPING FUTURE OF AMERICAN WARFARE "Imagine, if you will, that Lindbergh was able to raise a ton of money and buy McDonnell Douglas, an aircraft manufacturer, and put in place this unbelievably innovative guidance system, and FDR decided to loan to the RAF (Royal Air Force) B-17s, an amazing bomber in defense of Europe as this fascist begins to invade Europe," he said.  "And then the CEO of McDonnell Douglas, Charles Lindbergh, decides mid-flight, to turn off the guidance systems. And as a result, the blitzkrieg increases in fury and UK citizens are killed."  "I believe that has almost exactly played out in the last few weeks with Elon Musk throttling back Starlink," Galloway said. "And my question is, or my thesis is, we took the Rosenbergs and put them up against a wall and executed them for being traitors. And I realize this is an incendiary statement, but I'll make it, and I believe it. I think Elon Musk is a traitor to the West." Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were executed in 1953 after being convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage for the Soviet Union in a case involving U.S. atomic secrets. Galloway further argued, "And I think what is even more dangerous is this zeitgeist within America that the idolatry of innovators and money has created a cloud cover such that traitors to the West are not seen as traitors to the West. That if this had happened in any other age where we were not obsessed with innovators and money, a much different reaction would be playing out for Elon Musk." Musk said Ukraine was using Starlink in violation of the service's restrictions, saying, "Using Starlink, a civilian commercial service, for offensive drone strikes to kill people has never been allowed." HOW ELON MUSK GOT BACK IN TRUMP'S ORBIT AFTER NUCLEAR FALLOUT, INSIDERS REVEAL: 'WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE' On a recent episode of the "Pivot" podcast with co-host Kara Swisher, Galloway made similar comments, saying, "We lined up the Rosenbergs against a wall. This is a traitor to the West, and he should be held to the same standards as every other traitor in the West." "Comparing Elon Musk to the Rosenbergs is ludicrous," Theo Wold, a former White House deputy assistant for domestic policy during President Donald Trump’s first term, said in a statement to Fox News Digital about Galloway’s rhetoric. "Elon Musk is an innovator who epitomizes the technological advances and optimism that are at the center of Western Civilization, which incidentally, Democrats loved — that is, until Musk exercised his First Amendment freedoms to support Republicans."  "That is no crime, and the only thing Scott Galloway is pushing for is a nakedly partisan witch hunt and the endorsement of violence against the Antifa Democrats’ political enemies," Wold added.

Arizona House Democrats elected Rep. Oscar De Los Santos, D-Laveen, as the House speaker-elect and Senate Democrats elected Sen. Priya Sundareshan, D-Tucson, for the 2027 legislative session.  The latest unofficial election results update on Friday would give Democrats a 20-10 supermajority lead in the Senate and a 37-23 majority in the House. Democrats have not held a trifecta at the Arizona Capitol in 60 years.  “It is a victory for Arizona, and we will make it a victory for affordability,” De Los Santos told reporters after a House Democrats closed caucus meeting on Friday. “A victory for healthcare, a victory for public education, a victory for working families and middle-class families who are struggling to get by.” House Democrats also elected Rep. Nancy Gutierrez to lead House Democrats as majority leader. Reps. Brian Garcia, D-Tempe, and Kevin Volk, D-Tucson, will lead as majority whips. Rep. Quanta Crews, D-Phoenix, will be the next speaker pro tempore.  Along with Sundareshan’s election as Senate president-elect, Democrats in the upper chamber also elected Christine Marsh, D-Phoenix, as their majority leader in 2027. Sen. Analise Ortiz, D-Phoenix, will be majority whip and Rep. Alma Hernandez, D-Tucson, will be Senate pro tempore as Hernandez is switching chambers from the House. “The Senate Democratic caucus is united,” Sundareshan said Friday afternoon. “All of us are excited to come together, to govern for the people of Arizona as a team to deliver on the promises that we’ve all collectively made on the campaign trail.” Both House Democrats and House Republicans held their caucus organization meetings Friday morning. Rep. Janeen Connolly, D-Tempe, expressed interest in running for speaker prior to the caucus meeting.  Incoming House Minority Leader Steve Montenegro, Assistant Minority Leader Michael Carbone, and Minority Whip Lupe Diaz speak to reporters after a House Republican caucus organization meeting on Nov. 6, 2026 (Jakob Thorington/ Arizona Capitol Times). House Republicans are keeping most of their leadership in place. The caucus elected outgoing Speaker Steve Montenegro, R-Goodyear, as its new minority leader in 2027. He said Republicans are united and their legislative priorities remain the same, including opposing any policies from the new majority that may raise Arizonans taxes. “We want to make sure that we’re focused on the cost of living. We want to make sure that we’re advocating for policy that’s going to make the lives of Arizonans more affordable and better to raise their families,” Montenegro said.  Current House Majority Leader Michael Carbone, R-Buckeye, will transition to assistant minority leader and Rep. Lupe Diaz, R-Benson, will be the minority whip.  Senate Republicans did not meet Friday for a leadership election and won’t organize the caucus until next week. Their presumptive leader heading into the election, Sen. T.J. Shope, R-Coolidge, will likely lose, and he said he conceded to Democrat Elaine Aldrete on Thursday.  “I just called and left a message with Elaine Aldrete to offer my congratulations on her victory in Arizona’s Legislative District 16,” Shope wrote in a Thursday post on X. “While it wasn’t the outcome I’d hoped for, I offered my assistance to her if she’d like help to make the transition run smoothly.” The post Legislative Democrats elect leaders for their majorities first appeared on Arizona Capitol Times.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee6ebabcfe2a61c5f489df Miami Heat finally unveil 'Grand Theft Auto VI' themed jerseys and social media is loving them te 2026-11-07T00:20:10.213Z Miami Heat finally unveil 'Grand Theft Auto VI' themed jerseys and social media is loving them With the much anticipated release of "Grand Theft Auto VI" right around the corner, the marketing strategy for the game has reached a fever pitch. Cities around the globe are emblazoning the sides of their buildings and public transportation with "GTA VI"-themed wraps, but nowhere else is receiving the kind of attention from Rockstar's marketing arm than The Magic City. Miami is the inspiration for Vice City, the fictional setting of "GTA VI," and the South Florida metro area has seen everything from blimps to billboards getting slapped with a "Vice City" logo or design. MIAMI HEAT UNVEIL 'ENHANCED' DWYANE WADE STATUE AFTER ORIGINAL SCULPTURE WENT VIRAL FOR WRONG REASONS Even the Kaysea Center, where the Miami Heat play their home games, has a giant "WELCOME TO VICE CITY" sign on the roof of the arena, which makes the team's next move make that much more sense. Feast your eyes on the limited edition "A Night in Vice City" jersey. NBA PLAYER PREDICTS AMERICAN ATHLETES' PERFORMANCES WILL DIP IN NOVEMBER WHILE THEY PLAY GTA The Heat will be rolling these out during their November 18 matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks, just one day before "GTA VI" is set to drop, and they look awesome. I may be biased, considering I am a native South Floridian and a fan of the "Grand Theft Auto" series, as well as a very casual Heat fan, but it seems like a majority of the internet is on board with these being insanely cool. Not only are the Heat dropping their Vice City themed jerseys that night, but the concession stands in the Kaseya Center will be GTA-inspired as well. Fast food joints like "Burger Shot" and "Cluckin' Bell" that show up across the entire series will be featured in different sections of the arena in lieu of their usual vendors. The court will even have a special Vice City design to it, meaning the Heat are really going all in with the "GTA VI" aesthetic. Unfortunately, from what I could tell on the team's official website, you need to actually go to the game on November 18 to receive one of these special jerseys. No sweat, though, as I'm sure some influencer who went to the game and didn't even watch will try to resell the threads for the price of some family's mortgage. Start pinching your pennies now, gamers! Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee6eb6bcfe2a61c5f489c3 What changes will Democrats make to Arizona’s ESA program? te 2026-11-07T00:20:06.026Z What changes will Democrats make to Arizona’s ESA program? Key points: Democratic leaders, now in control of the Legislature and governor’s office, say reforming the school choice program is a top priority  Lawmakers will look to craft a measure similar to Proposition 212, a citizens’ initiative that failed to qualify for the ballot and that included an income cap The new superintendent of public instruction also plans to make changes to the program Arizona’s school choice program could see major reforms with Democrats now in control of the Legislature, the governor’s office and the top job at the state Department of Education.  The Empowerment Scholarship Account program has been the subject of recent debate among lawmakers and state leaders. Republicans have opposed major restrictions on the $1 billion program but have signaled some support for more accountability amid concerns about fraud and abuse, while Democrats and school-choice opponents want more wide-ranging reforms.  Attempts to negotiate reforms to the program were unsuccessful in this year’s legislative session, and this past summer courts knocked two ESA-related measures off the ballot.  Now, with Democrats taking control of both chambers of the Legislature, lawmakers and Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs say they are ready to push through changes – though what exactly that will entail remains to be seen.  “We’ll crack down on the waste, fraud and abuse in the out-of-control ESA entitlement program while delivering $1 billion to our public schools – without raising taxes,” Hobbs said in a victory speech Wednesday.  A spokesperson for Hobbs declined to provide further details Friday on what changes the governor would like to see to the program.  Both Democratic and Republican lawmakers, meanwhile, said the issue is top of mind.  House Speaker-elect Oscar De Los Santos told reporters after a Friday caucus meeting that one of Democrats’ main priorities is to invest in the state’s public schools.  “Unfortunately for decades, the Republican majorities who have served in these chambers have turned their backs on our public schools and our public school students,” De Los Santos said. “We want to end the waste and the fraud and the abuse within the ESA voucher program and make sure that taxpayer dollars are going where they need to go.” Rep. Nancy Gutierrez, whom House Democrats elected as their new majority leader, said the caucus will prioritize a measure similar to Proposition 212, a citizens’ initiative that failed to qualify for the ballot because supporters did not collect enough lawful signatures.  That measure would have set a household income cap of $150,000 for program enrollees and restricted allowable expenses. Gutierrez said Democrats will start with a measure similar to Prop. 212, but they want to continue discussing their plans with education stakeholders. Democrats did not say if they’re seeking to return the program to how it operated before universal expansion in 2022.  “To pass anything out of this chamber, we’re going to need 31 votes,” De Los Santos said. “So we’re going to have a lot of conversations with the caucus.” Outgoing House Speaker Steve Montenegro, who will serve as minority leader for Republicans in the coming session, said protecting the ESA program is one of his party’s top priorities. Republicans have no intention of standing by and watching the program be dismantled, he said.  “We always want to make sure we’re protecting public dollars, and there’s accountability for public dollars, but our number one priority is always standing for parents and their choices,” Montenegro said. “Parents have the ability to raise their children in the way they want to, and we want to stand with parents.” Teresa Leyba Ruiz speaks with attendees of the Arizona Democrats’ Election Night party on Nov. 3, 2026 in Phoenix. (Carsten Oyer/Arizona Capitol Times) Starting in January, Arizona will have a Democratic superintendent of public instruction after Teresa Leyba Ruiz defeated Republican Kimberly Yee. Ruiz will replace outgoing schools chief Tom Horne, a Republican. Lawmakers must approve major ESA policies, but Ruiz said in an interview Friday that as the program’s administrator, she can make some changes.  Ruiz said she wants to change the system so ESA expenses submitted by families under $2,000 are no longer automatically approved by the state. She also said she plans to launch an online portal where the public can view data on spending in the ESA program.  “This goes back to our core belief that public dollars demand public accountability,” Ruiz said. Ruiz declined to say whether she thinks there should be an income cap on the program or if it should be limited to only certain students, such as those with disabilities.  “My job as superintendent is to administer the law, to implement it with fidelity and integrity, and I’m going to let the Legislature grapple with those kinds of questions,” she said.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee6a10bcfe2a61c5f488d7 Two women's college basketball teams score on their own baskets in the same day te 2026-11-07T00:00:16.181Z Two women's college basketball teams score on their own baskets in the same day Apparently, knowing which basket you’re supposed to score on is no longer a prerequisite for playing college basketball. Of course, I’m joking, but if you saw the lowlights from the New Mexico State and Northwestern State women’s basketball teams, you might not be so sure. Each team delivered a spectacularly embarrassing moment Friday by gifting the opposing team points while scoring on the wrong basket. Yes, you read that correctly. Twice. On the same day in college basketball, two different women’s teams scored on their own baskets. The first disaster came during Northwestern State’s matchup against Arkansas, when Lady Demons guard Karma Wynn inexplicably put the ball into the Razorbacks’ basket on an inbounds play in the backcourt. This was after an offensive foul, too. They were guarding the basket, got a stop, and Wynn still brain-farted and gave Arkansas free points. ROYALS IMPLODE WITH 3 ERRORS AS METS' CARSON BENGE SCORES LITTLE LEAGUE HOME RUN TO OPEN GAME VS KC The reaction from the Northwestern State bench said just about everything you need to know. An assistant coach buried her head into her clipboard, while teammates just about leaped out of their seats in shock. Arkansas was handed two free points, and the Razorbacks went on to win big, 89-59. But just when you thought we'd reached peak basketball stupidity, New Mexico State decided to raise the bar. This one has an interesting twist, so stay in your seat. With just over 20 seconds remaining against Southern Utah, New Mexico State trailed 61-60. Guard Emma Christiana made a great play by stealing an inbounds pass, then kept going toward the wrong end of the court. She effortlessly laid the ball into her own basket, but judging by her initial reaction and those of the people in the stands, they had no idea Southern Utah had taken the lead in the most insane way. With the game on the line, Christiana scored two points for the other team. Even crazier: The scorekeeper didn't notice the blunder either. On the broadcast, you would've thought, by the scoreboard, that New Mexico State took the lead. WNBA FAN GOES VIRAL FOR HALF-COURT SHOT HORROR SHOW THAT LEFT HIM SPRAWLED ON THE COURT Apparently, even the person responsible for keeping score couldn't comprehend that someone had just scored on the wrong basket. At that point, you almost have to wonder whether anyone in the building knew what was happening. What a mess. And somehow, despite literally helping Southern Utah take a 63-60 lead, New Mexico State pulled off the win. Freshman Stacy Chovino scored twice in the final seconds, including the game-winning basket with two seconds remaining, on the correct basket, to give the Aggies a stunning 64-63 victory. Imagine winning a basketball game after scoring for your opponent in the final 30 seconds. That's almost more impressive than the mistake itself. Two teams. Two own baskets. One afternoon. Somewhere, a youth basketball coach is preparing a very important PowerPoint presentation titled, "Which Basket Is Ours?" Because apparently, we need to go back to basics.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee6559bcfe2a61c5f487bc White House trashes 'peanut-sized brain' Jimmy Kimmel after host demands Trump 'resign' te 2026-11-06T23:40:09.044Z White House trashes 'peanut-sized brain' Jimmy Kimmel after host demands Trump 'resign' The White House took aim at late-night host Jimmy Kimmel Friday, declaring that his brain has "rotted" after the comedian called on President Donald Trump to "resign." "Jimmy Kimmel’s case of Trump Derangement Syndrome is so advanced that it has completely rotted his peanut-sized brain," White House spokesperson Davis Ingle told Fox News Digital. "He’s far more entertaining when you’re laughing at him than with him, but unfortunately, his real talent is his failing ratings," Ingle added. "This statement took more brain cells to write than the average Jimmy Kimmel joke." STATE OF PLAY: BLUE WAVE SWEEPS DEMOCRATS INTO POWER, WITH KEY RACES STILL HANGING IN BALANCE The response followed a string of Trump-focused monologues from Kimmel after the midterm elections, with the ABC host celebrating what he described as a Democratic "blue wave" on Tuesday. During his Wednesday night monologue, Kimmel called on Trump to resign and rejected the president's claim that Republicans would have fared better had he been on the ballot. "That is such crap," Kimmel said. "You were on the ballot. You’re like dog hair. You’re on everything. You’ve infected every nook and cranny of our lives. You divided this country like no one ever divided it before. The only time you ever brought us together was yesterday, when we all teamed up to get rid of you!" Kimmel also referred to the president as "Nappy Gilmore" while showing an imagine of Trump appearing to be asleep during a White House meeting, before urging him to "resign." "Quit already, just quit. Nobody wants you. Even you don’t want to be president anymore. Take that billion dollars’ worth of crypto, buy an island. Maybe Epstein’s island? Wouldn’t that be a perfect end to this story!" Kimmel added. AMERICA SAW THE BLUE WAVE COMING — BUT DRASTICALLY UNDERESTIMATED THE EXTENT OF THE DEM TSUNAMI Later in the broadcast, Kimmel addressed a statement Ingle provided to Fox News Digital earlier in the week following the election, in which the spokesman labeled the host a "no-talent loser who has beclowned himself with tanking ratings." That earlier White House statement had added that Kimmel is "so devoid of actual talent that nobody with any commonsense would ever watch him unless it was to laugh at him." "Which is kind of the point of the show, but apparently I’ve beclowned myself once again," Kimmel said, acknowledging the statement on his show and referring to Ingle as "Danny Dingle."  "The last thing I want to do is tell you how to do your job, Danny Dingle, but today seems like a bad day for you to call me a loser," the host added.  WHITE HOUSE LAUGHS OFF 'BECLOWNED' JIMMY KIMMEL AFTER CRUDE PERSONAL JABS AT NEW PRESS SECRETARY Responding to Kimmel’s post-election coverage earlier in the week, media commentator and Hollywood in Toto editor Christian Toto suggested the host's relationship with ABC could face growing financial pressure. "Jimmy Kimmel long ago traded in comedy for activism. He's a DNC apparatchik, pushing party talking points and occasionally cracking wise along the way. This week's response to the midterms is nothing new," Toto told Fox News Digital Wednesday. "What is new, though, is the tightrope he's walking with ABC. The network wants sizable budget cuts to keep the show afloat. The two sides will likely come up with a compromise, because, for ABC suits, the show's propaganda purposes overshadow financial concerns. But for how long?" Toto added.

Deshaun Watson has been in the concussion protocol all week and has not practiced, so Browns coach Todd Monken said Sanders will start. Monken praised Sanders’ performance in practice. "I liked his confidence and the way he operated. He looked very comfortable in terms of getting our guys in and out of the huddle and I thought he threw the ball extremely well," Monken said of Sanders. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE Watson could clear the concussion protocol on Saturday, but after missing three days of practice, the Browns will start Sanders regardless of whether Watson is cleared. Sanders entered the game for four plays last week when Watson left to undergo a concussion evaluation, completing two passes for 2 yards. Watson returned to the game after being cleared by an unaffiliated neurotrauma consultant. The 10-year veteran began experiencing concussion symptoms Monday night, when he was placed in the concussion protocol. The 24-year-old Sanders started the final seven games of his rookie season last year, going 3-4 while completing 56.2% of his passes for 1,400 yards with seven touchdowns and 10 interceptions. The Browns had a quarterback competition throughout training camp, but Watson won the job. THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW! Sanders said his playing time last season was valuable. "It was valuable, just tapping back into that memory bank, having those reps and everything," Sanders said. "That’s why I’m thankful for this whole offseason and everything and just being out there with the guys each and every day, being able to still get some throws in with them. So I don’t think we lost a step." The New Orleans Saints, Cleveland’s opponent on Sunday, have struggled defensively, ranking 28th in the league in total defense and 23rd against the pass. The Browns (5-3) are looking to avoid consecutive losses for the first time this season, while New Orleans (2-5) is coming off its bye week. The Associated Press contributed to this report.

El concejo identificó puntos clave durante su retiro de planificación estratégica de marzo, incluida la necesidad de distinguir mejor entre las áreas con valor a largo plazo y aquellas donde el municipio debería invertir activamente tiempo de su personal y recursos. El administrador municipal adjunto, Karl Shaddock, presentó un plan de dos niveles durante la reunión del concejo del 16 de septiembre: el primer nivel abarca oportunidades activas de interés comercial, y el segundo nivel cubre objetivos a largo plazo que no requieren recursos inmediatos. La estrategia actual de anexión de Oro Valley se adoptó en 2020 y ofrece un marco general para las oportunidades potenciales. Sin embargo, dados los recursos limitados del municipio, Shaddock planteó al alcalde y al concejo la pregunta fundamental que debe responderse ¿Dónde debería el municipio invertir proactivamente sus escasos recursos destinados a la anexión? Desde el retiro de marzo, el personal municipal y el concejo han estado analizando varias áreas potenciales de anexión, incluidas propiedades comerciales cerca de las carreteras Ina y Oracle, así como terrenos del fideicomiso estatal de Arizona cerca de las carreteras Tangerine y Thornydale. Shaddock señaló que reorganizar los principios de anexión y adoptar el sistema de dos niveles permitiría al municipio gestionar mejor sus recursos limitados sin sobrecargarse con proyectos de construcción. Afirmó que las propiedades comerciales mencionadas anteriormente deberían ser el foco inmediato, mientras que otras posibles anexiones como La Encantada y la intersección de Ina y Oracle deberían mantenerse en consideración dentro del segundo nivel.

Ayúdenos a seguir contando las historias de Tucson. El alcalde saliente Joe Winfield, cuyo mandato finaliza en noviembre tras decidir no buscar la reelección, señaló las cuatro categorías del plan de anexión de 2020 y preguntó a Shaddock cuál era la razón para reducirlas a dos. “La estrategia de 2020, la actual, incluye grandes extensiones de zonas residenciales,” dijo Shaddock, explicando que las categorías actuales buscan encontrar la vía más rápida y viable para desarrollar zonas comerciales sin invertir recursos significativos en áreas residenciales que ofrecen poco o ningún valor comercial para Oro Valley. La vicealcaldesa Melanie Barrett, quien sucederá a Winfield en la alcaldía en noviembre, sugirió añadir una tercera categoría al esquema, argumentando que se debería prestar más atención a otros elementos de la segunda categoría; una propuesta con la que coincidieron otros miembros del concejo. Barrett argumentó que desarrollar de inmediato los terrenos del fideicomiso cerca de las carreteras Tangerine y Thornydale tiene menos sentido, principalmente porque se encuentran dentro de los límites de Marana, lo que implica que la mayoría de la gente compraría en tiendas de Marana en lugar de en las de Oro Valley. Señaló que desarrollar terrenos más cercanos a Oro Valley, o al menos no adyacentes a Marana, sería una decisión fiscalmente más responsable. “Entiendo que existen ciertas preocupaciones sobre el agua en la zona de Arroyo Grande,” dijo Barrett. “Pero si la comunidad dispone de agua suficiente para abarcar una gran parte de terreno sin desarrollar, realmente creo que desarrollar la zona norte tiene más sentido. Puede que suponga un mayor esfuerzo, pero creo que el beneficio para la comunidad sería mayor.” Barrett también señaló que la aceptación de la comunidad solía formar parte de la estrategia de anexión, y expresó su deseo de que se incluya algún tipo de opinión o retroalimentación comunitaria en la estrategia de cara al futuro. El concejal Josh Nicolson estuvo de acuerdo con los elementos prioritarios de la primera categoría, pero sugirió que el agua debería ser una preocupación más apremiante a la hora de abordar la anexión. “Llevar a cabo una anexión es una cosa. Cabe esperar que genere ingresos, pero si miramos a 10, 20, 50 o 100 años vista, ¿cuánto les costará a los futuros ciudadanos?” preguntó Nicolson.  Nicolson expresó su preocupación tras la propuesta de Barrett de anexar la zona de Arroyo Grande, la cual cuenta con una disponibilidad de agua limitada para el desarrollo. Es probable que la votación sobre el nuevo plan se lleve a cabo una vez que el personal haya incorporado las sugerencias del concejo.

The event, held on National Black Man Voter Day, centered on community. Ryan, who wrote the memoir “Notes on a Blacklash: When a Black Woman Goes Viral,” signed copies for attendees before the program. Ryan said she was looking forward to “just being with the community,” where people “understand the struggle, understand the issues.” She said she hoped for unity instead of the “foolishness” the country is in right now, “where everybody’s hurt.” Community was the focus of the event and its speeches. “When we do things, we don’t want to do them in silos,” said NAACP Tucson Branch President Cheree Meeks. “When we think about advocating together, we also want to think about voting together, we want to educate together. We want to learn together, inspire together. Thinking about how we can do this together really means that we’re stronger.” Donna Liggins, a former president of the NAACP Tucson Branch, said the organization exists to help people. The group can’t do everything, Liggins said, but “what we can do is help people.” “What’s exciting is just seeing people that you’ve known and haven’t seen in a while . . . seeing the recognition, and how this event touches the community itself,” said 2026 NAACP Legacy Award recipient Larry Starks.

Helping each other was part of the program, too. Ryan asked attendees who had lost their jobs to raise their hands and those with jobs to offer to stand. She told them to meet in a corner of the ballroom after the event to talk and help one another find new positions. In her speech, Ryan criticized U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, saying agents are not picking up criminals, and asked what “we the people” did in response. “Many of us look like we could be Latina. Many of us look like we could be Dominican. I’m carrying my passport every day,” she said. Ryan said she was upset for about a month after former Vice President Kamala Harris said last summer that she would not run for governor of California. “I have never seen women say no, particularly Black women. I have never seen women pull back,” Ryan said. Ryan said Black women have “held up nations and communities from the time they brought us here from slavery to now.” She closed her speech by pushing attendees to do more than vote. “We the people make a difference in a trial of trouble. This is not new to us, we have been here before,” Ryan said. “The question is, what are you going to do, beyond voting? I hate this, ‘Oh, I voted.’ Okay, what are you going to do after? What is your next step?” Christy Russell is a journalism major at the University of Arizona and Tucson Spotlight intern. Contact her at crussell68@arizona.edu.

ESPN fired Clark more than three months ago, yet he still discusses his ousting on a regular basis. The New York Post summarized his appearance on the "All The Smoke" podcast Thursday. "Sophie Cunningham says something and they [OutKick] say, ‘A great brand switch for ESPN. Ryan Clark was fired this week and now Sophie Cunningham leads the news,’" Clark said before alleging that ESPN leaked news of his firing to OutKick. "That’s what they [ESPN] wanted. That’s why you leaked it to [OutKick]. And so I think everything points to it, but I should have, my antenna should have been up more and even with that, there was nothing I could change." CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE Clark first accused ESPN of coordinating with OutKick to "humiliate" him three days after his firing. However, as we have documented on multiple occasions, that is not accurate. In short, OutKick learned that Clark was among several employees ESPN planned to lay off as part of its budget cuts. We informed the network that we were going to report the news because Clark was the most notable name on the list. (We also reported Cam Newton’s ousting when we learned of that news the next day). Amid an email exchange with ESPN PR about our reporting, an executive informed Clark during a commercial break on "NFL Live" that he would be laid off. He did not return for the next segment. Our understanding is that the company fired Clark during the show because it feared we would not hold the information until after the broadcast. ESPN management did not want Clark to learn about the decision online. ESPN did not "humiliate" Clark on purpose. It tried to protect him. The decision, however, backfired — badly. Had ESPN told us that Clark was unaware and asked us to hold the news until he knew, we would have. Further, ESPN did not leak the news to us. My colleague Dan Zaksheske and I had four independent sources. In fact, ESPN tried to prevent us from breaking it. The fact that ESPN quickly leaked news of Clark’s firing to The Athletic after learning that we had plans to report it suggests that. That said, Ryan Clark prefers the following narrative: "Those bastards fired me for being too black and leaked the news to Bobby Burack and OutKick." He believes that version of the story will drum up more sympathy for him. Maybe it will. To be clear, Clark actually claimed that he "couldn’t be too black" during his time at the network. We are only being partly sarcastic. Now, let’s address his reference to the Sophie Cunningham profile. The profile generated headlines and protests outside WNBA games because Cunningham voiced support for keeping trans athletes out of girls’ sports. "I got a lot of negative feedback about me hating trans. And I’m like, ‘I never once said that.’ I think that I am here to extend love. But I also think with that love is truth, being honest. And I want to protect young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn’t have to go against biological men," Cunningham told ESPN. Damn her for extending love while wanting to keep little girls safe! Clark claimed ESPN profiled Cunningham to show OutKick that it had completed a "brand switch." Not quite. For one, the profile was conducted in February. The story was held until July to line up with the WNBA season. SIGN UP FOR THE DAILY OUTKICK NEWSLETTER Finally, it is time for Ryan Clark to move on. ESPN fired him more than three months ago. He has continued to blame everyone but himself for the decision. He has blamed his former bosses, OutKick, Clay Travis, Dan Zaksheske, me and the "culture change." In reality, none of us are to blame. Ryan Clark is to blame. He got himself fired. ESPN fired him because he was toxic. He made false statements about the role Louisiana police allegedly played in the death of former LSU Tigers wide receiver Kyren Lacy. He shamed Robert Griffin III for marrying a white woman. He race-baited by trade. He undermined and disrespected Peter Schrager on air. He shouted the F-word at Schrager off air afterward. Clark was a headache for producers and a migraine for his bosses. Most notably, Clark did not drive viewership and therefore did not drive revenue. That is not a knock on him. Most sports analysts do not. The difference is that Clark was also a negative stain on the brand. He was more of a problem than he was worth. That would be like Pat McAfee failing to produce results despite the perpetual drama surrounding him. Talents such as McAfee, Stephen A. Smith, and Charles Barkley get away with more because their bosses believe they are worth the trouble. By no metric was Clark worth the trouble he caused. It is that simple. That's why he was fired. All the claims about racism, OutKick and coordinated leaks are a cope. Clark is too weak to acknowledge the obvious: He was not good enough to be that toxic.

The pilot, called Garden to Pantry, has volunteers grow high-calorie crops in garden beds that would otherwise sit empty and deliver the harvest to local food distribution partners. It also reaches people facing hunger who don’t have the time, ability or resources to tend a plot of their own. Garden to Pantry pairs the Pima County Food Alliance’s food policy work with Community Gardens of Tucson’s existing garden sites. “There’s a lot of individuals that maybe aren’t able to have the time and capacity to grow their own food, especially if they’re facing other issues,” said Brittany Guerrero, Community Gardens of Tucson’s operations manager. “We have empty plots in the garden, so we have space that we can utilize, and we’re putting those pieces together and saying, ‘Hey, let’s grow food and try to donate for individuals that utilize it.’” Community Gardens of Tucson has long worked to eliminate financial obstacles for low-income residents seeking to grow their own food. Enrollment in the organization’s sliding-scale Food Resiliency Program, which offers plot memberships ranging from $0 to $16 per month compared with the standard $22 monthly fee, has grown from about 50 gardeners to 132, Guerrero said. Despite this expansion, waiting lists for subsidized individual plots remain long. And many community members experiencing acute food insecurity lack the time, physical capacity or resources required to maintain a dedicated plot. The Garden to Pantry pilot addresses these constraints simultaneously. By converting vacant, unrented garden beds into collective growing spaces maintained by experienced volunteer gardeners, the program produces fresh, nutrient-dense food specifically marked for free community distribution.

The Garden to Pantry pilot prioritizes carrots and fast-maturing radishes so harvests can reach local distribution partners before they spoil. Isabel Vidrio / Tucson Spotlight. Unlike cold-climate regions where agricultural operations shut down during winter freezes, Tucson’s mild winter temperatures and summer monsoon season allow for continuous, year-round cultivation. Carrots are prioritized because of their caloric density, nutrients and extended shelf life, along with fast-maturing radishes. “We know carrots do super well here in Tucson, and carrots actually have some calories to them and some great nutrients. So that’s one that we’re prioritizing, as well as peas,” Haiduk said. “We’re not fighting the seasons in any way, we’ll just be sharing what actually grows well in each season.” Radishes are ready weeks before other crops, so the pilot tracks how much it harvests and how often to arrange quick drop-offs with local distribution partners before the food spoils, Guerrero said. So many people offered to help with the pilot that organizers have temporarily capped the number of volunteers at the garden sites. “With this particular program, we’ve had so many people wanting to help,” Haiduk said. “That just makes me really hopeful. It tells me that people in Tucson want to grow food, but they want to really have a strong purpose behind it.” Organizers are adding other ways for people to help. Starting in December, volunteers will be able to work from home. They will receive seedling kits and grow lights to start plants that will supply future plantings at the gardens. Beyond food production, Community Gardens of Tucson uses its network of sites as public third spaces, regularly hosting neighborhood association meetings, educational workshops, film screenings and open-air arts events. Tucson residents can attend free community gardening workshops, support events at garden sites or donate to Community Gardens of Tucson. Details on upcoming events are on the Community Gardens of Tucson and Pima County Food Alliance websites.

(Photo by Gage Skidmore/Flickr/CC BY-SA 2.0) Former Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb, a Republican, is on track to defeat Democrat Elizabeth Lee to represent Congressional District 5 in the U.S. House of Representatives.  As of Friday, Lamb had secured 51% of the vote in the district to Lee’s 48%. A change in the lead is unlikely at this juncture: CD5 spans Pinal County, where 100% of the vote has been reported, and parts of Maricopa County, where only 2% of the vote remains uncounted.  GET THE MORNING HEADLINES. SUBSCRIBE Lamb spent 8 years as the Pinal County Sheriff and built a political brand as an advocate for hardline immigration policies, frequently travelling to the Arizona state legislature to support proposals that sought to entangle the state in federal immigration enforcement efforts. Lee, a nurse and reproductive health expert, highlighted her career in healthcare to appeal to voters as the best advocate in Congress.  The district is a deep-red stronghold that President Donald Trump won by 20 points two years ago. Lamb netted Trump’s endorsement, which helped propel him through the Republican primary. But the former county sheriff downplayed his link to the president on his campaign website ahead of the general election, in a bid to distance himself from Trump’s plummeting public approval ratings. The slim lead Lamb has nursed since Wednesday is itself a clear display of voter discontent with Republicans this election cycle; in previous elections, Democrats have failed to earn more than 41% of the vote in the district.  Throughout the campaign to replace Congressman Andy Biggs, who left the district to launch an unsuccessful challenge against Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs, Lamb was dogged by accusations of sexual misconduct against multiple women, even as he portrayed himself as a conservative candidate with traditional values.  Also on Thursday, Republican Eli Crane maintained a razor-thin, 3,694 vote advantage over Democrat Jonathan Nez in Congressional District 2, yet another ruby-red district that has long been considered out of reach for Democrats. More than a third of voters in the district, which stretches across northern Arizona, are registered Republicans.  Crane, who was first elected in 2022, has emphasized his conservative bonafides and career as a U.S. Navy SEAL to appeal to voters in the district. Nez sought to emphasize his work partnering with the Trump administration in his role as the former president of the Navajo Nation to prove that he can get results in Congress. The Democrat has sought to mobilize Native voters with his candidacy. Northern Arizona is home to multiple tribes, including a large swath of the Navajo Nation. This is the second time Nez has tried to unseat Crane; in 2024, the Democrat lost to Crane by more than 36,000 votes.  The race to represent CD2 is likely headed to a recount. Arizona law mandates a recount in a race if a candidate is defeated by less than 0.5% of the total votes cast. Nez has begun fundraising in anticipation of potentially challenging the results of that recount in court. In a campaign email, the Democrat implored supporters to help him shore up his legal defense.  “In a deep red seat that Trump won by 15 points, an Indigenous sheepherder from the Navajo Nation is standing on the verge of defeating one of Trump’s favorite members of Congress,”he wrote. “That’s why we need to finish strong and make sure we have the resources to fight back against any Republican attempts to sway this count.” YOU MAKE OUR WORK POSSIBLE.

The Golden State Warriors big man announced Friday he will "step away" from basketball as he continues to deal with health issues. "This season I was really looking forward to running it with this group, but as I ramped up, my body didn’t respond the way I anticipated. I’m doing good, but I know what it takes and I’m not where I want to be to perform at the level that I expect from myself. At this point, I’ve made the decision to prioritize my health and step away from the game I love," Porzingis said in a statement. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE "In this situation, I want to show the utmost respect for the Golden State Warriors and work with them to find a solution that makes sense. I’m thankful to my family and close ones for always being there. Much appreciation to all of you for the support. Onwards and upwards." ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania has reported that, according to league sources, the franchise has ceased delivering the semimonthly payments he is due on his $20 million salary. The report also indicated that Porzingis is not actively disputing the lack of payments, and the NBA Players' Association has no plans to dispute it. Porzingis has not taken the floor for the Warriors this season and stepped away from the team the day before the team's training camp began this offseason. The Latvian is reportedly dealing with recurring symptoms tied to Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), which can cause dizziness and fatigue. Warriors have reportedly stopped paying Kristaps Porzingis' $20 million salary amid mystery illness saga SIGN UP FOR THE DAILY OUTKICK NEWSLETTER Porzingis addressed speculation about his health in an Oct. 14 post on X, and also spoke about online rumors involving "internet doctors" who alleged that he had contracted HIV or AIDS. "Hello people, I’m working with doctors and experts to figure out how to be fully back to good health asap. Honestly, I’m getting better and better," he wrote on X. "I just have to stay patient, and I believe I’ll be feeling great again soon." Despite appearing in just 74 total games over the last two seasons battling health issues, the Warriors opted to sign the big man to a two-year, $40 million extension during the offseason. Porzingis has earned more than $253 million in the NBA since making his debut as a New York Knicks in 2015. OutKick's Mark Harris contributed to this report.

Okechukwu, who is classified as a sophomore, had six points, 10 rebounds and three blocks in 21 minutes as Tech won easily 64-37 over Charlotte. The Nigerian tower made her presence felt early in the game when a Charlotte player went up for a simple put-back only to get absolutely stuffed. Could we be looking at a future Angel Reese stopper? It's early, but fans know they're looking at a force under the basket. "Someone tell her to start doing the finger wag after every block," one fan wrote on Steph's Instagram as a throwback to Dikembe Mutombo's signature move after a block. ANGEL REESE VS. 7'3" DOUGHY CHINESE TOWER ZHANG ZIYU WAS A BATTLE FOR THE AGES AT THE FIBA WORLD CUP According to her bio, Okechukwu was born in Nigeria and then somehow ended up playing high school basketball in Japan. In YouTube videos posted earlier this year, the Texas Tech center is seen dominating what looks like high school basketball. In one of the videos, Steph's team wins 119-43. On Wednesday, Tech announced that the NCAA had granted Okechukwu four years of eligibility. "I think about this every day," Okechukwu said in a social media video. ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON'T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW! "It was obviously huge for us," Tech women's basketball coach Krista Gerlich told the media this week. "I feel like the NCAA did a really great thing here because it is for the right reasons. We were expecting two (years of eligibility), we were hoping for three, and to be blessed with four is just out of this world." Why was there a question about Okechukwu's eligibility? It's unclear. "She hasn't played college basketball," Gerlich promised. How does a 7-foot-1 Nigerian, by way of Japan, with developed skills just show up in the U.S. out of thin air? That's a great question.

EstateSales.NET, the site that hosted the listing for The Girls Estate Sales, said it is reviewing whether the listing followed its policy. Andrew, who asked that his last name not be used, and his wife regularly browse estate sales around Tucson. He was scrolling through the photos posted on EstateSales.NET for The Girls' Oct. 24 sale near East Broadway Boulevard and South Houghton Road when one stopped him. “I was going through the pictures, there’s a lot of, you know, matchbox cars, vinyls … and then I got to this picture and I did a double take, and I was like, ‘Hold up, that is a lot of Hitler memorabilia,’” Andrew said. “I zoomed in, and I was like, ‘That absolutely is a lot of Hitler memorabilia.’” The photo showed a glass case holding books including “Hitler’s Inferno” and a book of Nazi marching songs, dolls depicting Nazi Party members including propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels and sealed pieces of red fabric that appeared to come from a Nazi flag. A nearby box was labeled with the name of Hermann Göring, one of Hitler’s top lieutenants. The sale’s online listing doesn’t mention Nazi or Hitler items by name. In a long list of household goods and collectibles, from Noritake dishes to a signed Hootie & the Blowfish guitar, it includes a “German WWII history collection,” tucked between vintage toy tractors and a toy cannon truck. Andrew’s grandmother, a Holocaust survivor from Poland, came to the United States through Ellis Island. She was among the first survivors interviewed by Steven Spielberg about their experiences and is featured at the Illinois Holocaust Museum and Education Center in Skokie, Illinois. “Estate sales are going to have historical artifacts, but there’s a difference between historical artifacts like a replica fighter jet pilot and (items of) Hitler Youth,” Andrew said. We're a nationally recognized newsroom, but we're still a nonprofit that runs on community support. Help us keep telling Tucson's stories. A photo from The Girls Estate Sales’ listing for its Oct. 24 sale shows a display case of Nazi memorabilia, including books about Hitler, boxed figures of Nazi leaders and what appear to be pieces of a Nazi flag. The listing described the items as a “German WWII history collection.” Photo via EstateSales.NET. He emailed the company to share his concerns and hasn’t heard back. He also posted about the sale on Instagram and tagged the company, which responded to the post with a heart emoji. “(My wife) and I will regularly look at what Estate Sales are going on in Tucson… We found this one promoted by (The Girls),” Andrew wrote in the Instagram story. “In true disbelief, I had to double take,” he wrote in the story. “I get Estate Sales will have historic artifacts, however there is a significant difference in claiming to have ‘WWII history collection” and having Hitler/Nazi artifacts.” The company’s account then sent him a direct message: “Thanks for the shout out.” Andrew wrote back that it wasn’t a positive shout out and that the company should do better. “Yeah definitely some good sales coming up. Can’t wait to see you there!” the company replied. Andrew said the messages seemed like automatic replies. But after the exchange, the company’s account reacted to his post with a clapping-hands emoji, which made him question whether the response was intentional. An office manager for The Girls Estate Sales, who gave only her first name, Stephanie, initially denied that the Instagram exchange had happened when Tucson Spotlight visited the group’s storefront Thursday. She later acknowledged it. “I can’t take it back. … But what’s done is done,” she said. “The interaction on Instagram … could have been handled differently.” Stephanie said the company didn’t photograph everything in the collection and after talking with its client, it held back items it considered more sensitive. She said none of the items it did photograph were illegal to sell. “As far as the advertising goes, we try to be as delicate as we could,” she said. A mural covers the side of The Girls Estate Sales’ Tucson office. Topacio "Topaz" Servellon / Tucson Spotlight. She said employees are uncomfortable selling items like these, but the company’s contract with its client required it. “Most of our employees don’t like selling that stuff, but we have to,” she said. “It’s part of history. Whether it is good history or bad history, it’s all there.” Another Tucson estate sale company took a firmer stance. Gaby Fleming and her husband, Chris McKulsky, who own Tucson Estate Sales said they come across Nazi-era items or other items with hate symbols two or three times a year. In most cases, the company talks with its clients and declines to sell the items. Often the family just wants them thrown away. “We once nearly filled a roll away dumpster with white supremacy propaganda, and it was a weight off a grieving family’s shoulders, and off ours to be honest,” the couple said in an email. Fleming and McKulsky said the company has never sold items like these. Staff research every item, and anything that could upset an entire group of people is left out of the sale. The company does sell political and religious items, as long as they weren’t made for a hateful purpose. “There is a line between preserving history and culture while educating others, and hatred, and in your soul you can feel it cross the line,” Fleming and McKulsky said. They said there are few industry standards for estate sale companies, and each one does things a little differently. “As a reseller, you should never feel forced to take on a client or sell something,” they said. “Sometimes it’s easy to get caught up on dollar signs, but by sticking to your gut, it will take you further.” A sign directs shoppers to The Girls Estate Sales. EstateSales.NET is reviewing whether the company’s listing for its Oct. 24 sale followed the site’s policy. Topacio "Topaz" Servellon / Tucson Spotlight. Selling Nazi memorabilia is legal in the United States, but several major online marketplaces restrict it. eBay expanded its ban in 2001 to cover Nazi memorabilia regardless of its age or historical value, though it still allows German coins and stamps from the period and other items without Nazi or SS markings. Etsy has said it doesn’t allow items that support or commemorate current or historical hate groups, including collectibles. EstateSales.NET says on its website that it isn’t a curated site and doesn’t see items before they’re listed. Its policy allows some antique items tied to historic injustices when sellers provide transparent historical context, but it bars items that promote hate groups or glorify human tragedy. The site asks sellers to contact its support team for approval before listing items that may fall under those restrictions. Violations can lead to the item or sale being removed or the seller’s account being suspended or canceled. A seller support specialist for the site said Nazi-related items are allowed if they were made before 1945, but they can’t glorify hate groups, historical atrocities or intolerant views. He said the site would send the listing to its compliance team and check its records to see whether The Girls asked for approval and whether anyone reported the listing before Tucson Spotlight’s inquiry. “We take these matters seriously,” the specialist wrote. The Anti-Defamation League told Tucson Spotlight it understands there’s a market for war memorabilia among serious collectors and doesn’t object to Nazi-era items being sold at auction. But it doesn’t want them ending up with people who would use them to glorify Hitler or the Nazis. “There’s no line between historical artifacts and memorabilia. It all depends on the context of how it is being used,” said Sarah Martin, director of communications for ADL West. “We would rather see these items in a museum than in the hands of someone who might use them to spread hatred.” The ADL said businesses that come across these items should give them appropriate context and consider donating part of the proceeds to anti-hate initiatives or Holocaust education. Lynn Davis, interim executive director of the Tucson Jewish Museum & Holocaust Center, said the museum is built around the stories of the more than 270 Holocaust survivors who settled in Tucson and Southern Arizona after World War II. It displays Nazi-era artifacts, like a radio the Third Reich used to spread propaganda into German homes and a yellow Star of David a local survivor wore as a child. But it deliberately leaves out Nazi items like swastikas and SS uniforms because they can be triggering for survivors and their families. “When these objects are removed from their historical context, they can take on an entirely different meaning,” Davis said. “What was once an instrument of persecution or propaganda can become a collectible, a status symbol or even an object of admiration.” She said antisemitism has risen worldwide since the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attacks on Israel, and that Nazi artifacts on the open market risk being fetishized and glorified. The Girls Estate Sales' office manager said its Instagram exchange with a Jewish shopper who criticized Nazi items in its Oct. 24 sale could have been handled differently. Topacio "Topaz" Servellon / Tucson Spotlight. Davis said families who find these items should pause before selling them, photograph and document them, and contact a Holocaust museum. Museums can trace an object’s history, including whether it was taken from a Jewish family during the Holocaust. The museum accepts some donations, though it doesn’t necessarily display them. “By donating these items to a museum, you know that they will be cared for appropriately, they won’t be celebrated and they can do their part to help tell one of the darkest stories in human history,” she said. She said many of today’s survivors were small children during the Holocaust, and their memories often return as they age. “How should it feel to see the insignia from the uniform of a soldier who ripped you from your mother’s arms offered at an estate sale?” Davis said. “It’s horrifying to think about.” Jewish Philanthropies of Southern Arizona, which collects reports of antisemitic incidents through its community security program, also said the items belong in museums. “In general, Nazi memorabilia should wind up in a museum rather than being sold to the highest bidder to preserve historical truth, prevent the glorification of hate and stop the commercial exploitation of a global tragedy,” said Carina Bien-Willner, the group’s director of public affairs. Andrew said he isn’t sure an apology from The Girls Estate Sales would mean much, but he wants to see some accountability. “Whether that’s educating themselves, donating some profits to the (Jewish Community Center) or the Holocaust survivorship memorial, I think that would be appropriate,” he said.

Oscar De Los Santos will be his party's first house speaker in 60 years, when the 2027 legislative session begins in January. (Photo by Jerod MacDonald-Evoy/Arizona Mirror) Democrats will soon control the Arizona legislature for the first time in 60 years and have chosen Rep. Oscar De Los Santos to lead them at the Arizona House of Representatives come January.  De Los Santos, D-Phoenix, was elected by the House Democratic Caucus Friday to be the first Democratic speaker since 1966.  GET THE MORNING HEADLINES. SUBSCRIBE “It took a lot of hard work to get here, but we have much more to do,” De Los Santos said in a statement. “Our priorities have been consistently focused on bringing down costs for housing, childcare and healthcare for working people and middle-class Arizonans. Now we have a mandate, a moral obligation and a historic opportunity to deliver an Arizona we can afford.”    De Los Santos will lead Democrats whose caucus is expected to be 37 members when all the votes are finally tallied and the election is certified. Democrats previously held 27 of 60 seats and flipped a number of them this election cycle.  Joining De Los Santos on the leadership team will be Majority Leader Rep. Nancy Gutierrez, D-Tucson, and Majority Whips Rep. Brian Garcia, D-Tempe, and Rep. Kevin Volk, D-Tucson. Rep. Quantá Crews, D-Phoenix, will serve as the speaker pro tem.  De Los Santos was an instrumental part of local Democratic efforts to flip the legislature as he co-chaired the Arizona Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee.  Republicans in the House, who will now be in the minority, also chose their leaders on Friday.  Current Speaker of the House of Representatives Steve Montenegro, R-Goodyear, will be the minority leader when lawmakers return to the Capitol in January. Rep. Michael Carbone, R-Buckeye, will be assistant minority Leader with Rep. Lupe Diaz, R-Benson, serving as minority whip.  “Our role in the House is changing, but our principles and our responsibility to Arizona families are not,” Montenegro said in a statement. “Our vision for Arizona has always been grounded in three commitments: preserving the American Dream, promoting public safety, and protecting individual rights and liberties. Those principles shaped how we led in the majority, and they will continue to guide our work in the upcoming session.” In the Republican leadership announcement, Montenegro said that Democrats can “expect a fight” if they seek to make changes to GOP policies created in the state the past 60 years but said if there are chances they can work together “in the best interests of our state, we will”  “We didn’t enter public service simply to occupy seats in the Legislature,” Montenegro said. “We’re here to stand up for the people we represent, hold the majority accountable, defend the principles we believe in, and do everything we can to keep Arizona moving in the right direction.” YOU MAKE OUR WORK POSSIBLE.

Miller, Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought and White House lawyers have worked since April to identify executive actions Trump could take without new legislation, including measures on immigration, tariffs, housing costs and federal spending, Reuters reported Sunday, citing three people familiar with the planning. With Democrats set to control Congress in January, Trump will face greater obstacles to passing legislation, while Democratic lawmakers will gain the power to launch investigations into his administration. "If crazed Democrats want to abuse their power and politicize their process of investigations, subpoenas, and destroying lives, they should be reminded that we still control the federal government and all of its powers," a White House official told Fox News Digital Friday afternoon. ‘LAWYER UP’: DEMS IMMEDIATELY PUT TRUMP ON NOTICE AMID REPUBLICANS' MIDTERM BLOODBATH Asked by CBS on Tuesday how he would advance his agenda if Democrats took control of Congress, Trump cited the Supreme Court’s June ruling in Trump v. Slaughter, which expanded his authority to remove certain federal officials. "We won the Slaughter case and the Slaughter case gives the president tremendous powers that it never had before," Trump told CBS in the interview. TRUMP TOUTS 'ULTIMATE POWER' OF VETO IF DEMOCRATS WIN CONTROL OF HOUSE AND SENATE In Trump v. Slaughter, the Supreme Court handed Trump a significant victory on presidential authority in June, ruling that he had the constitutional power to remove former Federal Trade Commission Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter despite a federal law restricting the president's ability to fire FTC commissioners. Trump said the ruling will be a cornerstone for how he intends to govern by executive action. He also discussed vetoing bills passed by the Democratic Congress until they're willing to come to the bargaining table.  On numerous occasions, he has already referred to himself as "Mr. Veto." TRUMP REVIVES RARE BUDGET MANEUVER TO RESCIND $810M IN CONGRESSIONALLY APPROVED FUNDS "As the President has said, he's willing to work with anyone to continue delivering victories for hardworking Americans," White House spokeswoman Lauren Bis told Fox News Digital. "If Democrats choose to pursue sham investigations and radical left policies, they are choosing to work against the American people." Republicans on the Hill expressed concerns about what Miller's appointment could mean for the final two years of his presidency. MIKE JOHNSON'S NO 2 LAUNCHES GOP TAKEOVER BID AS HOUSE FALLS TO DEMOCRATS Asked whether Miller's promotion could lead Trump to rely more heavily on executive action, one House Republican told Fox News Digital: "I’ve been concerned about that for two years." "I’m also concerned [Trump] will embrace his populist roots that are not conservative to pass things with the Dems," the lawmaker said. TRUMP CONGRATULATES DEMOCRATS AFTER DOMINANT MIDTERMS, SAYS HE LOOKS FORWARD TO WORKING WITH THEM Another said the Trump administration will continue governing "without Congress, as they've been doing." STEPHEN MILLER SAYS TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS PURSUING POLICY TO DEBANK ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS A Trump administration official praised Miller's appointment, particularly given Miller's immigration bona fides. "A great pick," the official told Fox News Digital. "He has the trust of millions of Americans who understand that reversing mass migration is the crisis of our time." Miller will begin his new role Monday, and Wiles will move to Trump's political operation.

Shockingly, it's as tone-deaf as you'd expect. Weird! Never saw it coming. EX-NBA PLAYER SAYS LEBRON JAMES SHOULD 'STAND THE F--- STILL' DURING NATIONAL ANTHEM For those who missed it, the Warriors held their Pride Night for Thursday's home game against Miami. Singer Jason Brock had the honor of performing the pregame national anthem, and promptly whipped out a small Pride flag when he got to the lyrics, "What so proudly we hailed ..." and began waving it around and nodding his head. The crowd gave a relatively diluted response, and then the cameras panned to several Warriors players who appeared to be laughing. You would think they were laughing at the absurdity of the situation, which would be a natural response given the disrespect. Nobody knows exactly why they were amused, but Brock was appalled at the notion that it could've been at his disgusting antics. Take a look: "Wow I didn’t interpret it like this, but I wasn’t watching the players," he said, via X. "Just because they were laughing doesn’t mean it was because of the anthem." DREAM, VALKYRIES LEAVE COURT BEFORE TI’S 10-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER SINGS WNBA FINALS ANTHEM Amazing. These people are amazing. Regardless of why they were laughing, it's just not the point. Can't we just sing a normal, respectful national anthem? I don't get it. We just spent weeks breaking down pregame film of the WNBA Finals because nobody wanted to respect our anthem, and now we're waving a Pride flag during it? What world are we living in? It's not asking a ton. It's really not. We're simply asking you to behave normally during the national anthem. It's quite literally the least you could do in that situation. Of course, that's just not how the world works in 2026. It's all virtue-signaling and gaslighting. If you're not pandering, you're not trying. Something as sacred as the Star-Spangled Banner can no longer be done without someone — or some team — hijacking it for some "cause" or some sort of activism. It's the national anthem. We've done this for hundreds of years. Stand up, pay attention, be respectful and leave the other stuff at home. Do it on your own time. Not America's.

When Fudd was drafted first overall earlier this year to Bueckers' Dallas Wings, it was believed that the two former UConn Huskies were still dating, and whenever either were asked, it was quickly shut down by either them or Wings PR. But the duo confirmed on "Fudd Around and Find Out" that they were actually long broken up, even before Fudd was drafted. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE "We’re not together anymore. It’s been, for everybody wondering — even though we don’t have to share — it’s been a while. Like, over a year. And [we wanted] to share that, because everybody seemed to be like, ‘Oh my god, they’re teammates, how is this going to work?’ We were not together before she got drafted, so all of those narratives can go to bed," Bueckers said on the show. "She was not drafted because she was my girlfriend, she was drafted because she deserved it. She’s an amazing human, amazing basketball player. And we’re still friends, still cool. We broke up over a year ago, so we played an entire season together. We’re the utmost professional, we care about basketball, and we’re still friends, we’re still cool."

Some incoming House and Senate progressives have expressed their reservations about House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) – despite the stunning Democratic wins from Tuesday night. Sen.-elect Abdul El-Sayed (D-Mich.) has long warned he might not support Schumer for Majority Leader. "If you’re Chuck Schumer, I’m dangerous," advised El-Sayed in late June. The Michigan Democrat ducked the question when asked about supporting Schumer on NBC just after the election. "I am going to vote for the option that gives me the best chance of getting money out of politics. Putting money in pockets and passing Medicare for all," said El-Sayed. "I'm interested to see, working with the rest of our caucus, what options we've got." By Thursday on CNN, El-Sayed was reiterating his support for Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) — who hasn’t announced he’s running for anything. "I think he'd be an amazing Senate Majority Leader," said El-Sayed of Van Hollen. But even other newcomers weren’t committing to Schumer. "No, I will not (support Schumer)," said Sen.-elect Adam Hamilton (D-Kan.) on Fox before the election. "And I've already said I'm not going to vote (for him)." "I think it's really clear that both parties are ready for a new generation of leadership," said Sen.-elect Annie Andrews (D-S.C.) to colleague Bret Baier. "I told Sen. Schumer that I'm going to support somebody else," offered Sen.-elect Troy Jackson (D-Maine). But Schumer is shrugging that off. REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK: A DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY COULD EXPOSE THE LIMITS OF THE PROGRESSIVE AGENDA "I'll be reelected as Majority Leader," said Schumer when asked by reporters on Wednesday. "But the issue is focusing on the American people and what they want." Schumer only needs around 29 of his members to support him in a secret caucus vote to become Majority Leader. That’s a majority of expected Senate Democrats who will serve next year. At least five members of the Democratic Socialists of America are pledging to withhold their support for Jeffries as the first Black House speaker in U.S. history unless they secure commitments for their agenda. The successful candidate for Speaker requires an outright majority of the entire House — 218 votes of 435, if all Representatives-elect cast ballots — when the new Congress convenes on January 3. Keep in mind that House Democrats may score more than 260 seats once all races are settled. So he can afford dozens of defections. For House Republicans, Johnson may have signaled his future last month when speaking to colleague Aishah Hasnie. "If God moves on our hearts and says we should go back to my hometown of Shreveport and start a lawn business, I'll do that," said Johnson. Now it’s far from certain that Johnson will soon channel Groundskeeper Willie from the Simpsons. But perhaps becoming "The Lawnmower Man" is a better option for Johnson than getting mowed down by your own colleagues in a bid for minority leader. Maybe the grass IS greener back in Louisiana. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) and Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) are running to become the House’s top Republican. House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-Minn.) wants to return as minority whip. He’s facing a challenge from Rep. August Pfluger (R-Texas). But here’s the trick. How do these House Republican win the leadership positions — yet maintain their own coalitions. It’s unclear if Republicans think that Jordan and Scalise are right for the party — right now. Both are aligned with President Trump. And some Republicans hope to move past that. Regardless, Democrats campaigned on two things: the cost of living and holding the Trump administration accountable. But what does the Democrats’ legislative agenda look like? This isn’t like 1994 where former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) famously crafted the 10-point "Contract with America" as a pledge to voters as to what Republicans would do if they flipped the House for the first time in 40 years. CHUCK SCHUMER AFTER SWEEPING DEMOCRATIC MIDTERM VICTORIES: 'I'LL BE RE-ELECTED AS MAJORITY LEADER' Democrats have a host of ideas on what they plan to vote on. "We have to first get in there and really focus on rolling back the cuts from the one big ugly bill," promised Sen.-elect Juliana Stratton (D-Ill.) on CNN. Also expect votes on renewing expired Obamacare subsidies. Democrats demanded money to offset the costs of rising premiums in exchange for their votes to fund the government. The House finally passed a bill to do that. But the Senate didn’t. The standoff over the Obamacare aid was the key component to last year’s record-breaking, 43-day government shutdown. "The shutdown sharpened the American people's view of the distinction between the parties on this crucial issue," said Schumer. Democrats are also focused on a key issue from the midterms: the future of AI and data centers. They’re concerned that AI threatens American jobs. "This revolt against data centers are just the initial tremors of a bigger AI earthquake that is upending American politics," said Rep. Greg Casar (D-Texas), chairman of the Progressive Caucus. "And we have be on the right side of this issue." There will undoubtedly be votes to end the war in Iran — perhaps by cutting off money for those operations. The House approved three "War powers" resolutions. The Senate green-lighted one. But those machinations did nothing to hem in the President on the war. Democrats believe that ending the war will reduce gas prices. And that in turn will lower the cost of groceries. Congressional Republicans balked at unwinding tariffs imposed by President Trump. So there could be votes on that front, too. Democrats believe the election shifted the dynamic of Republicans aligning behind the President in near lockstep. "This is the time for (Republicans) to show the courage to end this irrational and self-defeating tariff regime that Trump has put in place," said Rep. Greg Stanton (D-Ariz.). "Most of them realize that the tariffs from a fiscal and economic perspective are completely self-defeating." However, some Republicans aren’t ready to abandon the old playbook, clinging to the GOP’s hallmark legislative achievement of this Congress. "I think the tax cuts and the Big, Beautiful Bill were underappreciated by the electorate," proffered Rep. Chris Smith (R-N.J.). President Trump signaled he’ll both work with Democrats — and deploy his veto pen. But, it’s about the math. When all House races are settled, Democrats could control more than 260 House seats. That’s astonishing. They’re guaranteed 54 Senate seats — with Mississippi and Alaska still undecided It’s about the math. Overriding a veto requires two-thirds of both bodies. That’s 290 in the House and 67 in the Senate. If Democrats hover around 260 seats in the House — and Republicans are ready to ditch the President — hitting the 290 mark isn’t out of reach. If Democrats clock in at 56 seats in the Senate, cobbling together 11 GOP votes to reach 67 might be tougher. Especially with GOP Trump antagonists like former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and Sens. John Cornyn (R-Texas), Bill Cassidy (R-La.) and Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) departing. But they’re in range. It all hinges on what Democrats can pass. And what the President is willing to sign.

Australian fitness coach Khiana Smith said in a TikTok video that she was hospitalized after developing a severe headache and sensitivity to light. She later revealed in another video that she had been diagnosed with meningitis. Smith said she knew something was wrong when she woke up with what she described as the "worst headache." DEADLY LEGIONNAIRES' DISEASE OUTBREAK SPARKS CONCERN IN MAJOR US CITY: KNOW THE SYMPTOMS "I couldn't even get out of bed," Smith said in the TikTok video. "It was so intense I couldn't even open my eyes properly. I was really sensitive to light. I couldn't stand up without falling over." She initially waited to see whether she would feel better, but said she woke up the following morning feeling "10 times worse." She was eventually taken to a hospital by ambulance, where testing revealed the infection. Dr. Alfred Joshua, a California-based board-certified emergency room physician and former chief medical officer, told Fox News Digital that Smith's reported symptoms included several warning signs that should be taken seriously. "She started having symptoms of severe headache, having difficulty with light," Joshua said. "And then she started having difficulty walking, and then eventually slurred speech." CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTER Meningitis occurs when the protective layers surrounding the brain and spinal cord become inflamed, according to Joshua. Symptoms can include headache, fever, stiff neck and sensitivity to light. Trouble walking or speaking, confusion and extreme tiredness are more serious signs that should prompt immediate medical attention, Joshua said. The seriousness of the illness can also depend on what is causing it. Joshua said viral meningitis often resolves on its own, while bacterial meningitis can progress rapidly and requires prompt treatment with antibiotics. CLICK HERE FOR MORE LIFESTYLE STORIES "Certain strains over a couple of hours [can cause] the person [to] get really, really sick," he said. Doctors initially did not know whether her meningitis was bacterial or viral, according to Smith, so she was being treated for the bacterial form as a precaution. Smith's condition later appeared to improve enough for her to leave the ICU, but she said she had to return after continuing to experience head pain, light sensitivity and slurred speech. She also reported memory loss, and said swelling in her brain was preventing her from flying home. When meningitis is suspected, Joshua said doctors can use blood tests, brain imaging and a lumbar puncture to determine whether the infection is bacterial, viral or caused by something else. TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ Smith's experience has highlighted a concern for travelers who become seriously ill far from home. Joshua said recommended vaccines can protect against some forms of bacterial meningitis, and advised travelers to consider insurance that includes medical evacuation coverage. Smith's mother also stressed the importance of travel insurance, saying her daughter's hospital expenses were covered because she had purchased a policy before leaving Australia. Joshua said worsening symptoms, including changes in speech, walking or other brain functions, should not be ignored. "When symptoms are progressing in a more complicated manner with neurological dysfunction, do not wait and try to see this out," he said. "Go and seek prompt emergency treatment." Fox News Digital reached out to Smith for comment.

The No. 24 Louisville Cardinals welcomed the No. 2 North Carolina Tar Heels to town Thursday night for their final regular-season match. The Cardinals kept it close and trailed 2-1 in the 73rd minute when UNC goalkeeper Peyton Trayer prepared to clear the ball downfield. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE However, Louisville forward McKalie Ball applied some pressure, and while Trayer got the kick off, it clocked Ball square in the head and ricocheted into the empty cage. That is not how the Cardinals drew it up, but Ball took that ball for the team. Understandably, the freshman from Knoxville, Tennessee, went down hard and needed attention from the training staff before being helped off the field.

Hopefully, she's doing alright because taking a kick like that from point range has to be painful as hell, even if the fact that it wound up tying the match probably took a bit of the sting out of it. Unfortunately, the Cardinals needed at least two more of those — or goals in the traditional sense; those count too — if they wanted to cap off their regular season campaign with a big win. In the 79th minute, UNC's Hope Munson scored to give the Tar Heels a 3-2 win.

The team pushed back after Knicks guard Tyler Kolek questioned Swift's fandom, calling it fake, during a stream this week. In a statement sent to OutKick, a Knicks spokesperson said: "Taylor Swift has been a Knicks fan for many years, has a long history with Madison Square Garden, and we are incredibly appreciative of her support of the organization." ESPN'S MONICA MCNUTT APOLOGIZES TO TAYLOR SWIFT, BUT HER COMMENTARY FOLLOWS AN UGLY TREND Asked to identify the "fakest" celebrity fan sitting courtside at Madison Square Garden following the Knicks' title run, Kolek was brutally honest. "At the Knicks games, I would say it's very performative, because they want to be seen at the game," Kolek told teammate Deuce McBride during a recent livestream. "They're not necessarily fans." When pressed for a name, Kolek pointed to Swift: "Maybe Taylor Swift? I don't know if I've seen her at any other games." Kolek paid homage to MSG royalty like Ben Stiller.

In his third season in New York, the 25-year-old backup guard was on the Knicks’ 2026 championship roster. His Garden ties predate his NBA ring, having led Marquette to a Big East championship at MSG in 2023. Swift's actual sightings at MSG have been rare: a 2003 halftime show at age 13, a 2014 courtside appearance with Carmelo Anthony and a 12-year gap before returning for the 2026 Finals. MSG also displayed "Just Married" after she and Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce tied the knot at the arena in July. Call it performative, but Swift moves the sports needle like no one else, and the Knicks weren’t about to let a backup point guard jeopardize that kind of clout.

Another shopper liked being able to consolidate several kitchen tools: "This is a great find! Easy to clean, knife sharpener included, spot to grate garlic or ginger. One cutting board replaced 5 plastic ones that I had." A third reviewer highlighted the reversible design and sharpener: "It’s very easy to clean and helps keep meat separate from the cutting boards used for other foods. I was surprised by how handy the built-in knife sharpener is." The Tibo Cutting Board isn’t dishwasher-safe, so you’ll need to wash it by hand after use.

It casts a warm glow while gently melting scented candles without an open flame. It’s currently 50% off, bringing the price down to $20. Shop the deal while it lasts. Original price: $40 I tested the candle warmer lamp in my own home, and I was surprised by how much I liked it. At first, I wondered why someone would use a warmer instead of simply lighting a candle. I quickly understood the appeal: There’s no open flame to monitor or worry about extinguishing before leaving the room. If I forget to turn it off, the automatic shutoff provides an added layer of convenience, which may be especially appealing to households with pets or young children. Another unexpected benefit is that the warmer slowly melts the wax instead of burning through it with an open flame. In my experience, my candles last longer and remain usable until nearly all the wax has melted — not just until the wick burns out. MAKE YOUR HOME COZIER FOR FALL WITH THESE UPGRADES UNDER $50 In addition to offering a flameless way to enjoy scented candles, this warmer adds a decorative touch with its fluted glass shade, brass-tone hardware and solid wood base. Its adjustable height accommodates candles of different sizes, while the wide base can hold three-wick candles. The controls include two-, four- and eight-hour timer settings, a dimmer and two halogen bulbs. At 50% off, the warmer costs just $20 — a strong value for its cozy glow, convenient design and slow, even wax melting. Amazon shoppers and FOX readers agree: This candle warmer lamp adds a decorative touch to counters and tabletops, may help candles last longer and offers a flameless way to enjoy their fragrance. "I originally bought this candle warmer lamp as a gift for my sister-in-law, and she was fascinated by it," one five-star reviewer wrote. "The elegant design adds a cozy touch to any room. I ended up buying one for myself, too, because I love the warm, relaxing atmosphere it creates. It's a beautiful home decor accent and a wonderful gift." Another reviewer said they noticed their candles lasted longer: "I've been using this daily on a candle for over a month, and it fills my home with subtle fragrance while the candle still looks brand new." Wax can build up on the lampshade over time, but it’s easy to clean. Unplug the lamp and let it cool completely, then wipe the shade with a soft microfiber cloth. Gently lift any hardened wax with a plastic card or spatula, and avoid using water, metal tools or sharp objects near the lamp. Always check the product manual for model-specific care instructions.

Walter Willett, an 81-year-old Harvard nutrition researcher known for decades of work on diet and chronic disease, recently told The Washington Post that he eats blueberries almost every day, usually adding them to oatmeal with Greek yogurt and nuts. "In study after study, berries appear to be protective against neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease," Willett told the outlet. "It's an area where we need more research, but berries do seem to stand out, especially blueberries." NATURAL COMPOUND IN BLUEBERRIES AND GRAPES MAY UNLOCK FAT-BURNING PROCESS IN MUSCLE CELLS The fruit is one of the most researched, along with apples, bananas and citrus fruits, according to experts, and studies have long examined blueberries' effects on blood vessels and cognition. In a six-month study of 115 adults with metabolic syndrome, participants who consumed the equivalent of about a cup of blueberries daily showed improvements in blood-vessel function and arterial stiffness, Dr. Nadim Geloo, Virginia-based senior medical director of Abbott's structural heart division, told Fox News Digital. POPULAR FOOD COULD BOOST HEART HEALTH, BUT THE AMOUNT YOU NEED TO EAT MAY SURPRISE YOU That doesn't mean they directly prevent heart attacks or strokes, however.  "Most [studies] small and short, often use freeze-dried powder rather than whole fruit, measure markers like blood vessel function rather than actual heart attacks or strokes and are frequently funded by the blueberry industry," Geloo said. Some studies have also found improvements in memory and other cognitive measures, especially among older adults, though Dr. Michael Aziz, an internist and physician at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, noted that those effects were modest and research has not shown blueberries can prevent Alzheimer's disease. COMMON KITCHEN STAPLE MAY SHARPEN YOUR BRAIN, AND IT ONLY TAKES 2 TABLESPOONS California-based biomedical researcher Rhonda Patrick also recently spoke about blueberries' benefits for heart and brain health on her FoundMyFitness podcast.  "The strongest benefit is vascular," she said. Patrick called blueberries "one of the better-supported polyphenol-rich foods," referring to their antioxidant properties, and also said a "practical dose" is about a cup a day. THE 8 HEALTHIEST BEANS YOU SHOULD BE EATING MORE OFTEN, ACCORDING TO NUTRITION EXPERT She noted that studies in older adults have also found improvements in some measures of memory and cognitive flexibility. Longer-term observational studies have also linked berry intake with slower cognitive decline, but they cannot prove blueberries caused the difference. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTER Nonetheless, experts say it's still worth eating them. "While there is no 'magic bullet,' there's nothing to lose by including more berries in your diet," Elisa Bremner, a New York-based registered dietitian nutritionist, told Fox News Digital.  She, too, eats them nearly every day, Bremner said.  TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ "I have heard blueberries called 'brainberries,' due to all the research on cognitive function associated with them," she said. One cup of blueberries also provides about 3.6 grams of fiber, Bremner noted, which helps slow digestion, and pairing blueberries with protein-rich foods such as yogurt may further slow the release of sugar. CLICK HERE FOR MORE LIFESTYLE NEWS Fresh and frozen blueberries are both practical options, Bremner said, noting that frozen fruit can be a convenient, lower-cost way to eat fruit year-round. Since the evidence does not show that everyone needs to eat exactly a cup daily or that blueberries can prevent disease, Bremner recommends eating a varied, balanced diet rather than relying on one fruit. Willett also told The Washington Post that his overall approach emphasizes whole grains, fruits and vegetables, plant-based proteins, healthy fats and modest amounts of meat and dairy.

The Lone Star State swung blue for the first time since its new senator-elect, James Talarico, was born, and Houston Mayor John Whitmire wasted no time Friday announcing new restrictions on cooperation with ICE. Houston Mayor John Whitmire told the New York Times that city police are not permitted to notify ICE if they encounter an illegal immigrant in "nonviolent contacts" like traffic stops or minor offenses. 'WE DIDN'T EXPECT THIS': TEXAS DEMOCRATS STUNNED AS BLUE WAVE TOPPLES GOP STRONGHOLD "If they’re charged with a new crime, we’ll let ICE know as we get them to the jailhouse," he told the paper Friday. Abbott lost his bid for a fourth term Tuesday, and Talarico flipped one of the state’s Senate seats blue for the first time since Clinton Treasury Secretary Lloyd Bentsen won his final reelection bid in 1988 — seven months before the current senator-elect was born. Texas’ most recent Democratic governor, Ann Richards, the mother of former longtime Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards, was elected shortly thereafter in 1990. Whitmire did not respond to a request for comment but signaled to the Times that he made the decision at least in part because Abbott’s order requiring DHS contact caused "anxiety" among Houstonians. In a statement put out Friday afternoon, Whitmire said, "I have signed an executive order directing HPD to no longer contact ICE for nonviolent offences, helping reduce fear in our communities. Thank you to Chief Diaz, our state and local leaders for their collaboration. A step toward building a stronger Houston. Let’s Go to Work." He also acknowledged Gov.-elect Gina Hinojosa won’t take office until January but characterized his decision as "responsible" and "more effective policy." A DHS spokesperson responded to Whitmire's move in comments to Fox News Digital. "We remain disappointed that sanctuary politicians seek to limit cooperation with ICE, as our law enforcement are simply fulfilling their sworn duties to serve and protect our communities," the spokesperson said. "Partnerships with law enforcement are critical to having the resources we need to arrest criminal illegal aliens across the country. Seven of the top 10 safest cities in the United States cooperate with ICE. When politicians bar local law enforcement from working with DHS, our law enforcement officers have a more visible presence so that we can find and apprehend the criminals let out of jails and back into communities. The spokesperson pointed to some recent criminal illegal aliens captured by ICE in Houston – including Alexander Montano of Cuba, convicted of willful homicide, burglary and forced entry into a residence. Vietnamese national Ding Nguyen, also convicted of homicide, along with Guatemalan national Julio Camey, convicted of sex offense against a child, were also mentioned by the spokesperson. "You write a citation or you warn them and they go about their way. No contact with [ICE] over nonviolent, non-jailable offenses," Whitmire told the AP. A previous policy enacted in March by Whitmire and Police Chief Noe Diaz stipulated that if a background check revealed an immigration-related warrant, a sergeant would be called to the scene to oversee ICE involvement, according to Houston’s FOX affiliate. The policy also said that if ICE could not make it to the scene of the stop within half an hour, the subject would be released. SIGN UP TO GET THE POLITICS NEWSLETTER The Houston City Council subsequently approved an ordinance in April limiting how long officers could detain individuals while awaiting ICE agents, but Whitmire backed revisions after Abbott threatened to withhold more than $100 million in state funding and then-Attorney General Ken Paxton launched an investigation into the city's immigration policies. The revised policy restored greater discretion for officers to contact ICE and wait for federal agents during encounters involving civil immigration warrants. Whitmire's latest announcement would instead limit such notifications to encounters involving jailable offenses, marking a return to the restrictions city lawmakers initially sought.

It runs Monday-Friday on OutKick.com. First Friday of November, boys and girls. It's been a long week. A tough one. But we've made it to another Friday. The Dems can't take that from us! They can take every congressional seat known to man, but I will be damned if they take away a Football Friday. And a Football Saturday. And a Football Sunday. Not on my watch. We're here, and we're gonna lock it in for a few minutes to end the week before starting another big weekend. Let's roll. CBB WITH DANNY Z: KANSAS, TENNESSEE AND USC LEAD ANOTHER HUMAN POLLS VS. ANALYTICS ARGUMENT Welcome to a Friday Nightcaps — the one where the LSU women's basketball team treats an opponent like a JV high school team en route to the biggest blowout in D1 college hoops history. Not bad! What else? I've got an incredible national anthem out of Golden State last night, reader mail from the week and Hooters is BACK in NASCAR! What a comeback. It's been a while since Hooters was in the sport after getting evicted from the series last season (true story), but the girls are back for this weekend's finale in Homestead. That's how you end the week strong, folks. I feel better already. Grab you a pencil and scorebook and try to keep up with all the LSU points from last night ... and THEN settle in for a Friday 'Cap! HOOTERS RESTAURANTS KEEP CLOSING EVEN AS CEO SAYS THERE'S MORE TO THE STORY It's a Friday, the sun is finally out here in Florida after historic flooding earlier in the week, and we've got potentially the greatest Saturday of college football staring us in our fat, American faces. So, we're not beating around the bush today. Let's get after it, and then get on outta here a bit early. First up? I know all eyes were locked in on last night's terrible NFL game, but there was also a college basketball game taking place between LSU and Texas Southern. LSU, for those who don't follow women's hoops, is the No. 9 team in the nation. Texas Southern came into the game 0-1 with a 40-point loss to Tulane. Guess how it went? Lordy. I've never seen anything quite like it. The biggest blowout EVER in D1 history against another D1 opponent. A scoreless second quarter (40-0!). A 106-9 run over the final three quarters. The most mind-blowing stat? Texas Southern went 13 possessions without even getting the ball inside the three-point line in the second quarter. Goodness. YES, ALABAMA'S COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF RANKING IS ABSURD, BUT ONE TEAM GOT ROYALLY SCREWED BY THE COMMITTEE For those wondering, LSU's NIL valuation sits around $6 million this season — good for second-highest in women's hoops. You'll be shocked to know that Texas Southern's NIL valuation wasn't readily available. Go figure. What do we think? Should Kim Mulkey had let off the gas just a bit down the stretch? Or is this big girl college basketball and Texas Southern knew what they were signing up for? I think I'm in the first camp. I played for the worst DIII college baseball team in America for four years and we once lost to MIT 27-1. I have no pity. Suck it up, buttercup! Next? Let's stay on the hardwood and head out to San Francisco (reluctantly), where the Warriors held their mandatory Pride night last night and kicked things off with a totally normal national anthem: What a week for the left. When you're hot, you're hot! We all knew after Tuesday's bloodbath that Woke 3.0 was inevitable, and the folks out in San Francisco wasted no time in getting back to business. A tiny rainbow flag. During the national anthem. During the actual national anthem. You wanna talk about disrespectful. This makes the WNBA nonsense from last month look like child's play. Woke 3.0 is off to a BLAZING start, folks. Singer Jason Brock ain't backing down, either. "Wow I didn’t interpret it like this, but I wasn’t watching the players," he said in an X post. "Just because they were laughing doesn’t mean it was because of the anthem." It's gonna be a long two years. Heads on a swivel, everyone! Woke 3.0 is officially underway. OK, let's rapid-fire this Friday class into a big weekend of FOOTBALL. First up? You know what? It's been a while since we checked the mail. Let's empty it so we can start fresh next week. Yesterday — in honor of National Donut Day — I said the simpler the donut, the better. I'm tired of all these fancy donuts taking over America. Give me a Boston Cream, a blueberry donut, a glazed donut, and leave me alone. I'm all set. From Jerome D: "Have you tried the Sriracha yet? There’s something to a salty spicy donut!!" I love Sriracha as a sauce. I use it all the time (although nothing beats Crystal). But on a donut? Nope. I just can't get into it. I've tried it and it just doesn't work. Next? Earlier this week, I said Wake Forest got HOSED in the first batch of CFP rankings. I stand by that, by the way. The Demon Deacons are overlooked. Luke P. disagrees: "Wake Forrest got hosed? Cmon bud GTFOH. Last 3 games vs a now 5 loss VA team, a now 6 loss Cal team, and now 4 loss NC St team that's interviewing cringy past subway ambassador for HC. Oh before that they put up big on a now 5 loss Stanford squad. I guess we'll find out if wake is real this weekend against Merrimack who has lost to Rhode Island, Delaware, Tarleton St, Yale and Dartmouth but recently fought hard for a W over ...Wagner. ?!?" Fair points from Luke. I can't argue that, beyond the fact that Wake has blown out everyone on their "weak" schedule. No. 4 Indiana, meanwhile, needed overtime to beat Michigan and Minnesota — two terrible teams. Just saying. Finally, let's check in with NB, who did NOT appreciate me mocking the NBA and Luka Doncic the other day: "Why do you watch the NBA if it’s so awful to you?  You realize you have your opinions and others are allowed them as well. You have to watch the NBA you have to react to it because your paycheck depends on it. What a sad sad little life you have made for yourself. If you didn’t have these leagues to write about you would be unemployed. Your life depends on the, as you said the "softest league in sports" writing about something you hate is WILD. Hope Fox has good medical coverage because you need a shrink.  Have a good day being miserable and letting the world know. I bet it’s fun to know your echo chamber has a few bored people willing to call you out. My huge s–t is done. Wish I could wipe my a– with this article but I’d have to get it out of your a–." I mean, do we have the best readers, or what? These people are amazing. What an email! It's perfect. No notes. It's already on my fridge, front and center. FOX, by the way, has excellent medical coverage. OK, that's it for today — and this week. Good work, everyone. On the way out, here are the HOOTERS girls returning to NASCAR for the first time in 18 months. Welcome back.

Lock would say both. Darnold, who will miss Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals because of a quad injury, also suffered a cracked rib on the second play of Monday night’s 34-17 loss to the Chicago Bears. Lock said he knew right away Darnold was hurt despite the starter not saying anything. "Are you married?" Lock asked a reporter who had asked him how he knew Darnold was hurt. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE "I’m not, no," the reporter responded. "Did you have a girlfriend for a really long time?" Lock asked, and the reporter said he did at one point. "You know when she’s upset, she doesn’t have to say anything to you? I spent a lot of time with Sam, practice, watching every rep, games, watching very single rep. I just – I could tell," Lock said. While Darnold’s rib injury occured on the second play of the game, the quad injury he suffered came on the final drive of the Seahawks’ loss on Monday. Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald praised his quarterback’s toughness. THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW! "So he’s playing the whole game without even making a thing of it and playing his tail off and competing," Macdonald said. "I think it’s worth noting how tough this guy is. He’ll be back sooner than later, I’m sure." Macdonald said Darnold likely could continue playing through the rib injury, but the quad injury is keeping him out of the lineup. The 29-year-old is considered week-to-week and will not be placed on injured reserve. For Lock, this will be his second start of the season. Darnold’s first injury occurred early in the Week 1 game, and Lock ended up playing most of the game, leading Seattle to a win over the New England Patriots. In his lone start against the Cardinals in Week 2, Lock was fantastic. He completed 19 of 26 passes for 235 yards and three touchdowns. This season, he has completed 35 of 48 passes for 422 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions. Lock has been dealing with a sore elbow over the last two weeks but will start Sunday. Jalen Milroe will serve as the team’s backup quarterback. The 4-4 Seahawks will look to beat the 3-5 Cardinals for the second time this season at 4:25 p.m. ET Sunday, climb above .500 and keep pace in the NFC West.

Walter Willett, an 81-year-old Harvard nutrition researcher known for decades of work on diet and chronic disease, recently told The Washington Post that he eats blueberries almost every day, usually adding them to oatmeal with Greek yogurt and nuts. "In study after study, berries appear to be protective against neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease," Willett told the outlet. "It's an area where we need more research, but berries do seem to stand out, especially blueberries." NATURAL COMPOUND IN BLUEBERRIES AND GRAPES MAY UNLOCK FAT-BURNING PROCESS IN MUSCLE CELLS The fruit is one of the most researched, along with apples, bananas and citrus fruits, according to experts, and studies have long examined blueberries' effects on blood vessels and cognition. In a six-month study of 115 adults with metabolic syndrome, participants who consumed the equivalent of about a cup of blueberries daily showed improvements in blood-vessel function and arterial stiffness, Dr. Nadim Geloo, Virginia-based senior medical director of Abbott's structural heart division, told Fox News Digital. POPULAR FOOD COULD BOOST HEART HEALTH, BUT THE AMOUNT YOU NEED TO EAT MAY SURPRISE YOU That doesn't mean they directly prevent heart attacks or strokes, however.  "Most [studies] small and short, often use freeze-dried powder rather than whole fruit, measure markers like blood vessel function rather than actual heart attacks or strokes and are frequently funded by the blueberry industry," Geloo said. Some studies have also found improvements in memory and other cognitive measures, especially among older adults, though Dr. Michael Aziz, an internist and physician at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, noted that those effects were modest and research has not shown blueberries can prevent Alzheimer's disease. COMMON KITCHEN STAPLE MAY SHARPEN YOUR BRAIN, AND IT ONLY TAKES 2 TABLESPOONS California-based biomedical researcher Rhonda Patrick also recently spoke about blueberries' benefits for heart and brain health on her FoundMyFitness podcast.  "The strongest benefit is vascular," she said. Patrick called blueberries "one of the better-supported polyphenol-rich foods," referring to their antioxidant properties, and also said a "practical dose" is about a cup a day. THE 8 HEALTHIEST BEANS YOU SHOULD BE EATING MORE OFTEN, ACCORDING TO NUTRITION EXPERT She noted that studies in older adults have also found improvements in some measures of memory and cognitive flexibility. Longer-term observational studies have also linked berry intake with slower cognitive decline, but they cannot prove blueberries caused the difference. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTER Nonetheless, experts say it's still worth eating them. "While there is no 'magic bullet,' there's nothing to lose by including more berries in your diet," Elisa Bremner, a New York-based registered dietitian nutritionist, told Fox News Digital.  She, too, eats them nearly every day, Bremner said.  TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ "I have heard blueberries called 'brainberries,' due to all the research on cognitive function associated with them," she said. One cup of blueberries also provides about 3.6 grams of fiber, Bremner noted, which helps slow digestion, and pairing blueberries with protein-rich foods such as yogurt may further slow the release of sugar. CLICK HERE FOR MORE LIFESTYLE NEWS Fresh and frozen blueberries are both practical options, Bremner said, noting that frozen fruit can be a convenient, lower-cost way to eat fruit year-round. Since the evidence does not show that everyone needs to eat exactly a cup daily or that blueberries can prevent disease, Bremner recommends eating a varied, balanced diet rather than relying on one fruit. Willett also told The Washington Post that his overall approach emphasizes whole grains, fruits and vegetables, plant-based proteins, healthy fats and modest amounts of meat and dairy.

Saturdays during the fall are seen as sacred days where people put their differences aside and come together to cheer for their team. By that logic, anyone who tries to disrupt a college football fan's Saturday should be seen as someone whose views are incongruent with the hardcore fan's, even if their intentions are pure. A LIST OF THE BEST COLLEGE GAMEDAY SIGNS AT LSU DURING SHOW'S 500TH EPISODE All that is to say, the war being waged between college football fanatics and fall weddings is one that isn't slowing down anytime soon. I've gone on record as saying that if you choose to get married on a college football Saturday, you can expect a gift on your registry from me and an empty seat, because I ain't going. JOSH PATE DISCUSSES NEW ESPN SHOW, FOUR FACES OF ESPN, PAT MCAFEE AND FUTURE OF MEDIA COMPANY WITH OUTKICK Some may call this childish or accuse me of putting my hobbies before my friends and family, but I'm not alone. There are millions of other psychos in this country who have also adopted this stance, and one of them is none other than ESPN's Matt Barrie. Barrie is known for his college football coverage for The Worldwide Leader, and during Thursday night's game between UTSA and FAU, the longtime CFB host decided to lobby against fall weddings with an impassioned plea to all the other fellow psychos. "I need to say something, and I've never been more serious about something in college football," Barrie said while looking at a juicy weekend slate full of ranked-on-ranked matchups. "If you've got anyone getting married this Saturday, unfamily them or unfriend them, and don't go." One. Of. Us. Matt Barrie is alright in my book, because although this will get him skewered by all the uptight casuals, he understands his true audience. PAT MCAFEE HAS OFFICIALLY SURPASSED STEPHEN A SMITH AS THE FACE OF ESPN Anyone who was intently watching UTSA and FAU duke it out on a Thursday evening is someone who resonates with every word Barrie uttered. As a matter of fact, I think it's safe to say Barrie was preaching to the choir. If you're watching an AAC game on Thursday instead of doing literally anything else, there isn't a snowball's chance in hell you're going to a wedding this Saturday. Not to worry, Matt! There will be no need to "unfriend" or "unfamily" this weekend. We're in this "no fall weddings" thing together.

Former City Councilmember Julia Gusse (D-Maricopa) has won one of two seats representing Legislative District 16 in the Arizona House, defeating Republican incumbents Teresa Martinez (R-Casa Grande) and Chris Lopez (R-Casa Grande). Gusse led Martinez by more than 4 percentage points and Lopez by more than 6 percentage points in unofficial results updated at 11:39 a.m. today. Her victory comes as Democrats take control of both chambers of the Arizona Legislature for the first time in 60 years. “It’s been an amazing ride here on this blue wave,” Gusse told InMaricopa. “I think more than just the blue wave, we’ve really put a lot of effort into this election, so it turned out really great for us.” Gusse said her campaign worked to reach as many voters as possible and that she was encouraged by the early results. “We worked very hard, so we were expecting to do well, but it’s incredible the lead that we took early on,” she said. “We felt confident enough to call the race early because we just had such an incredible lead.”   From campaign trail to legislative agenda Arizona Senate candidate Julia Gusse speaks with constituents during a Rotary Club candidate meet and greet event on May 28, 2026.

The Senita resident also plans to push for legislation supporting veterans. She previously worked as a legislative liaison and said she already has bills drafted that she hopes to move forward. “We’ve already had the bills written,” she said. “Previously, we couldn’t get anything done because the Democrats did not have the majority, so most of these bills died. But I’m ready, I’m willing, and I have the knowledge of how to do it. Let’s get it done.” For Maricopa, Gusse said improving State Route 347 remains a priority. She also credited voters in the city with helping her campaign. “I’m very grateful for Maricopa in general,” she added. “I’m very happy that Maricopa remembered, and they really pulled me through this.”   An exit, but not a goodbye While he did not offer an official concession, Lopez said he plans to remain engaged in Arizona politics and public service, even as he prepares to leave the Legislature in January.

You know, they’re tired of high fuel prices. They’re tired of not having affordability in housing and health care.” He thanked supporters and said he plans to take a few days to process the results before deciding what comes next. “Don’t think that this is the end,” he said. “I think it’s probably still too soon to really decide.” His current term runs through January, but he’s not done yet. “I still have a responsibility to the great state of Arizona through January, so I’m still taking meetings,” he said. “I’m very involved with organizations throughout Arizona, and I’ll just stay engaged with those organizations.”   Arizona House of Representatives – Legislative District 16 Julia Gusse: 39,493 votes (36.9%) Teresa Martinez: 34,425 votes (32.16%) Chris Lopez: 32,630 votes (30.48%) The post Blue wave reaches Maricopa as Gusse wins House seat appeared first on InMaricopa.com.

Newly released police video obtained by Fox News Digital shows Brand defending his sexual history during questioning by London's Metropolitan Police. In a December 2023 interview, Brand, now 51, sat alongside his attorney and delivered a lengthy prepared statement to detectives, maintaining that his encounters were consensual. RUSSELL BRAND FOUND GUILTY OF ONE COUNT OF RAPE AND THREE COUNTS OF SEXUAL ASSAULT "As I’ve repeatedly stated publicly … I led a very promiscuous life in the past, which I’ve spent years openly denouncing. I’ve never engaged in non-consensual sexual activity," Brand said. He then criticized the September 2023 investigation by several media outlets, which first brought numerous allegations against him into the public spotlight. Brand described the reporting as "defamatory and fictitious," suggesting encounters that had been consensual were later "invented or reimagined" as misconduct. WATCH: RUSSELL BRAND POLICE INTERVIEW FOOTAGE RELEASED AFTER RAPE CONVICTION "At present, I don’t recall the names of the complainants or meeting them," he told investigators. "However, it’s entirely possible that I may have encountered them, and we may have engaged in consensual sexual activity, or physical contact." Brand also described kissing hundreds of members of the public during press events, book signings and other public appearances. "I did my best to be accessible and non-discriminatory and loving," he said. "I spent a lot of time at these events." The actor acknowledged making provocative jokes and comments to people and occasionally asking casual sexual partners to leave shortly after an encounter. RUSSELL BRAND ACCUSED OF RAPE, SEXUAL ABUSE OF 4 WOMEN; COMEDIAN DENIES ‘SERIOUS CRIMINAL ALLEGATIONS’ But when detectives pressed him about specific allegations, Brand largely declined to elaborate, repeatedly telling officers he had "nothing further to add." "I do not intend to respond to your questions without sufficient time to consider the information to answer accurately," he said. The video was released Thursday, Nov. 5, following a jury's decision to find Brand guilty of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault. The actor denied the charges throughout the proceedings. The comedian was taken into custody following the verdict and is due to be sentenced Monday, Nov. 9, at London's Southwark Crown Court, according to the Metropolitan Police. Brand's legal troubles could extend beyond his four convictions. The Metropolitan Police confirmed to Fox News Digital that detectives are continuing to investigate rape allegations made by two additional women. "The Met's investigation into allegations of rape made by two women remains ongoing," a spokesperson said. "The suspect has previously been interviewed under caution in connection with the allegations." The spokesperson added that case files had been submitted to the Crown Prosecution Service and that detectives remained in contact with prosecutors as further investigative work continued. Brand faced three counts of rape, three counts of sexual assault and one count of attempted indecent assault involving six women between 1999 and 2009 during his trial. LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS During the trial, Brand acknowledged being "reckless" and using his fame to pursue sexual relationships but maintained that the encounters were consensual. He told jurors that consent was "fundamental, essential and necessary." Brand denied forcing any of the women to engage in sexual activity against their will. PUT YOUR ENTERTAINMENT KNOWLEDGE TO THE TEST AND SEE HOW YOU SCORE The prospect of prison was already hanging over Brand weeks before the jury delivered its verdict. During an Oct. 11 episode of "Sunday Service with The Brands," his wife, Laura Gallacher, read a message from a supporter who had spent five years in prison and offered the comedian words of encouragement. "You will get through it … The presence of God is everywhere — in prison as well," one supporter wrote. Brand immediately interrupted. GET ENTERTAINMENT SCOOP DELIVERED RIGHT TO YOUR EMAIL BY CLICKING HERE "I don’t like things where it’s like, you might have to go to prison," he told Laura. "No, I know," she responded, acknowledging that incarceration was a possible outcome of the trial. "That's the nature of what a trial is," Laura said. Brand conceded that possibility. "That’s one of the challenges," he replied. The couple ended the episode by praying to God "for peace and love and for all the participants in this trial or any trial."

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee367769fbdcb35dec5435 “Fewer, better-prepared students:” 5 insights on the University of Arizona’s enrollment drop te 2026-11-06T20:20:07.883Z “Fewer, better-prepared students:” 5 insights on the University of Arizona’s enrollment drop University of Arizona enrollment has dropped 10% in the last year, with 5,280 fewer students compared to fall 2025 — and the UA is planning ahead for a smaller student body. Fall 2026 is the first time enrollment has fallen forArizona’s three public universities after a decade of growth. That’s the takeaway from an Arizona Board of Regents meeting on Thursday. The UA’s annual financial report, dated Oct. 30, describes the shift as a strategy: “fewer, better-prepared students.” Here’s what to know: 1. UA has about 10% fewer students than last fall. UA counted 49,104 students on its fall 2026 census, down from 54,384 last fall. That is a 10% decline and the second straight yearly drop. Undergraduates account for most of the decrease. These counts leave out the University of Arizona Global Campus, UA’s online division, which reports its numbers later in the fall and differently. 2. Statewide, university enrollment fell for the first time in a decade, but UA’s drop is larger. UA President Suresh Garimella said at Thursday’s meeting the three universities have different strategies, and statewide totals can hide that. Enrollment across the three universities slipped 0.2% this fall, Bradley Kendrex, the regents’ chief financial and operations officer said Thursday. It was the first decline in 10 years. However, enrollment is still up 36% over that decade. UA’s undergraduate enrollment is about 15% below its peak in 2024, Kendrex said, while Arizona State University grew slightly over the last year and Northern Arizona University’s undergraduate enrollment fell 12%, and its graduate enrollment fell 9%. 3. Out-of-state and international students account for UA’s decline — and that matters for UA’s budget. The losses: Out-of-state enrollment fell about 20%, to 18,256 students. International enrollment fell about 18%, to 2,721 students. Arizona residents at UA held about steady, at 28,127 this fall, making up a little more than half of all students. That matters for UA’s budget. Full-time tuition and fees on the main campus are $13,906 for residents and $43,068 for nonresidents, according to the financial report. Nonresident enrollment across the state peaked in 2025 and UA’s fell over the past two years, Kendrex told the regents. The number of enrolled students from neighboring states, who pay reduced rates, has also dropped, and international demand has softened, he said. Most of ASU’s enrollment disruption came from visa delays for admitted international students and changes in federal financial aid for part-time online students, ASU President Michael Crow said. 4. UA says it wants fewer students, with more from Arizona. Garimella said this fall’s class was the most academically prepared UA has had, and that the trends in UA’s numbers are “quite intentional.” “We’re not looking at growing numbers necessarily, but growing quality, growing retention, growing graduation rates,” he said Thursday.. UA’s Fall 2026 fact sheet shows the breakdown: First-year class: 6,111 students, 69% Arizona residents. Admission rate: UA admitted 75% of first-year applicants, down from about 84% last year. For Arizona applicants, it was 84%, down from about 89%. Academic profile: Average high school GPA of 3.55, up from 3.45 last fall. Access: About 30% of the first-year class are the first in their families to attend college, and about 34% are eligible for Pell grants, the federal aid for low-income students. Tuition hearing The Arizona Board of Regents will hold a virtual public hearing from 1-2 p.m. Monday, Nov. 9 on proposed 2027-28 tuition and fees and tuition and academic fee growth rates for 2029-30 to 2032-33 for the three public universities. Register to speak for up to two minutes, or email written comments to tuition@azregents.edu. Watch the livestream on YouTube. The hearing happens ahead of the vote, planned for Nov. 19. 5. The annual financial report shows UA budgeting for a smaller student body. The report says UA “has updated its operating business model” to focus on fewer students with “higher expected net tuition revenue per student.” It says that strategy “will lead to declining total enrollments.” It does not say by how much. The numbers behind the plan: Tuition revenue is down. Net tuition and fees were $952.5 million in the year that ended June 30, down 2.6% from the year before. State money is up. The 2027 state appropriation is $381.2 million, an increase of about 4.2%. Tuition for Arizona undergraduates stays flat. UA says the resident rate has held for four consecutive years. Costcutting continues. The budget includes a 2.5% cut in institutional costs such as utilities, insurance, debt service and licenses, and a 6.2% cut in administrative support costs. UA says it is limiting the effect on academic units and student support. Planned cash reserves are growing. UA plans to add at least $30 million to its monthly cash balances. UA had a cash shortfall in 2023 and 2024, and it fell below the Board of Regents’ minimum of 140 days of cash on hand. The UA report says it has added to its operating cash reserves in 2025 and 2026.

Joshua Bennett, 34, of Palm Bay, died Monday after heavy rainfall triggered flooding in Brevard County, along Florida's east-central coast. Bennett had reportedly left home to buy coffee when he encountered the rising floodwaters, according to WESH 2 News. MOM OF 2 WHO DIED RESCUING SONS DURING BAHAMAS SNORKELING TRIP IS IDENTIFIED His wife, Stacy Petit Bennett, told the outlet her husband called her in a panic as his truck became surrounded by floodwaters on San Filippo Drive. "He called me on FaceTime, and he was just crying, like, 'I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do,'" Stacy Petit Bennett said. "And he said he's in the middle of a river, and his car is, like, submerged with water all around." Stacy Petit Bennett urged her husband to break a window before the call abruptly disconnected. She said she called 911 and spent hours trying to get help for her husband.

Both House and Senate Democrats and House and Senate Republicans will choose their leaders in the coming days. And the changes are going to be seismic. But not everyone is on board with heir apparent leaders. That’s what makes this process so intriguing. However, there are only two rules in leadership elections: You can’t beat someone with no one. And, perhaps more importantly, it’s about the math. PROGRESSIVES FUME AT HAKEEM JEFFRIES FOR SAYING DEMOCRATS WON'T 'GET EVEN' WITH TRUMP There are some progressives and DSA-affiliated Democrats who will be House Members next year who want someone other than House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y. Who? Well, no one has said. Again, you can’t beat someone with no one. And frankly, it’s hard to believe that Democrats would not elect the first Black Speaker of the House. But drill down on the math. For the sake of argument, let’s say Democrats have 260 House seats in the new Congress. First, Democrats must tap a nominee for Speaker in their Caucus. That needs a simple majority. So surely Jeffries will score at least 131 votes in a private ballot for Speaker. The Speaker of the House is the constitutional officer for the legislative branch of government – much like the president is for the executive branch and the chief justice of the United States for the judicial branch. Thus, the ENTIRE House votes for Speaker when it convenes the new Congress at noon on Jan. 3. There are 435 Members. If all Members cast ballots, Jeffries simply needs 218. Jeffries could lose 40 votes or so and still prevail. So that is not going to happen. It might not even lose more than a couple votes, frankly. Now let’s look at the GOP and their case for Minority Leader. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., is running against Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio. If Democrats have 260 seats, Republicans would have 175. All INCOMING House Republicans (including non-voting delegates from U.S. territories) are allowed to vote in CONFERENCE. The selection of Minority Leader does NOT go before the entire House like Speaker. So, the winning candidate only needs a simple majority. That would be 88. The same for the race between House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, R-Minn., and Rep. August Pfluger, R-Texas, for Minority Whip. MIKE JOHNSON'S NO 2 LAUNCHES GOP TAKEOVER BID AS HOUSE FALLS TO DEMOCRATS The Senate Democratic Caucus and Republican Conference works much the same way as the House. A simple majority wins for Majority Leader in the Democratic Caucus and Minority Leader in the Republican Conference. However, the selection of Senate Majority Leader is not a vote which plays out on the floor. The concept of "Senate Majority Leader" has only been around since the early 20th Century and is not mentioned in the Constitution. Remember what we said about the House Speaker being the head of this branch of government. It would be hard to envision a scenario where Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., would not become Majority Leader after Democrats flipped the Senate in a beat down. First, who else is running? Well, Sen. Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii, is very popular among Senate Democrats. But he’s running for Majority Whip to succeed retiring Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill. One could see Democrats defaulting to Schatz is something happens with Schumer. Sen.-elect Abdul El-Sayed, D-Mich., has said he wants to look at his options and as endorsed Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., for Majority Leader. But Van Hollen isn’t running. Sen.-elect Annie Andrews, D-S.C., told colleague Bret Baier she wants a "generational change" in leadership. Sen.-elect Troy Jackson, D-Maine, and Sen.-elect Adam Hamilton, D-Kan., both said they would oppose Schumer. FIRST MUSLIM SENATOR, FIRST BLACK FEMALE GOVERNOR: 2026 MIDTERM ELECTION RESULTS MAKE HISTORY But again, you can’t beat someone with no one. Here’s the math: Let’s say Democrats do win Mississippi and Alaska, giving them 56 senators who caucus with the Democrats. All Schumer needs is 29 Democrats to support him in Caucus and he’s the next Majority Leader. There has not been as much rumbling about the future of Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D. Heretofore, President Trump has not called for new leadership in the Senate. But Senate Republicans would choose Thune or anyone else on a secret ballot in the Senate GOP Conference. A simple majority would win. If Republicans are down to 44 seats, the winner would just need 23 votes.

Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., a key ally of Israel in Congress, announced plans on Thursday to reject all corporate PAC money or funding from special interest groups tied to "foreign policy" after narrowly hanging on to her seat in the midterm elections. "I still am on [the committee on] foreign affairs and I’ve taken a particular interest in peace deals as well as supporting the administration’s peace deal efforts. And I want my constituency to understand when I’m either talking on these things or advocating for them in Washington, that I am controlled by no one, influenced by no one," Luna said in a video posted to X. Luna’s announcement comes on the heels of devastating midterm results for Republicans that have sparked debate about the role of pro-Israel political spending and U.S. policy toward Israel in several Democratic campaigns. FOX NEWS VOTER POLL: 2026 MIDTERM ELECTIONS USHER IN A BLUE WAVE AS DEMOCRATS WIN CONTROL OF CONGRESS Luna herself only narrowly beat out Democratic challenger Leela Gray, a veteran, in a 49.5% to 48.7% victory in Florida’s 13th Congressional District — a seat that has leaned safely Republican in years past. Many Democrats, including Luna’s opponent, used the Iran conflict as a proxy to attack Republicans on the cost of living after the conflict sharply restricted fuel exports from the Middle East. "In February, we were told this war would last ‘four to six weeks.’ Eight months later, at least 22 service members are dead, 800+ more are injured and the cost of living crisis at home is out of control," Gray said in a post to X a week before the election. "Despite the obvious and disastrous consequences of the war, Luna voted to continue it six times," Gray added, referring to Luna’s opposition to restricting Trump’s war powers. But those criticisms also spread far beyond Florida’s 13th Congressional District. Michigan Democratic senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed made the issue one of the cornerstones of his campaign, explicitly questioning Israel’s influence over the Republican Party and its role in the Iran conflict. MICHIGAN DEMOCRAT WHO LOST SENATE PRIMARY TO ABDUL EL-SAYED TAKES AIM AT BERNIE SANDERS OVER ISRAEL STANCE "I don’t consider an ally a country that takes us to wars we don’t need to fight, and I don’t want to be fighting wars we don’t need to fight," El-Sayed said in a debate ahead of the election. El-Sayed’s position on Israel coincided with many other progressive candidates who also opposed U.S. support for Israel — a key policy difference that created Democrat-on-Democrat tension in several key races. In New York, for instance, several political newcomers like Brad Lander, Darializa Avila-Chevalier and Claire Valdez all defeated Israel-aligned Democratic opponents in their primaries. In Colorado, progressive challenger Melat Kiros unseated an incumbent who had served 30 years in office while advocating for a full arms embargo against Israel. And in Minnesota, Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan won her Democratic primary against Rep. Angie Craig, D-Minn., while sharply critiquing her opponent’s political contributions from AIPAC. For her own part, Luna has consistently supported Israel as a key ally of the United States, citing aligned interests in the Middle East. She introduced the Stand with Israel Act, a bill that would bar U.S. funding for the U.N. Human Rights Council until it condemned Hamas for its Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel that left over a thousand victims dead. She also voted repeatedly to send U.S. financial assistance to Israel between 2023 and 2025 and condemned the International Criminal Court for issuing an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for alleged war crimes. Campaign-finance records show Luna received roughly $38,000 in direct contributions from AIPAC’s PAC — less than 1% of the more than $4.3 million her campaign raised through mid-October. BERNIE SANDERS DEMANDS DEMOCRATS BAN SUPER PACS FROM PRIMARIES, BLASTS AIPAC, ‘CORRUPT SYSTEM’ Luna did not immediately respond to a request for comment on whether she would encourage other Republicans to also forgo funding from foreign groups. She noted that her small-dollar contributions would uniquely enable her to shun PACs tied to corporate or foreign interest groups. "I ruffle a lot of feathers in Washington. These races can get expensive. Fortunately, this cycle, I was able to raise close to $4 million, if not more, largely from small-dollar donations. So I am able, because of you guys’ support, to not take that money anymore," Luna said.

Stanford Medicine researchers used brain scans and a computer model to look for early clues about why some older adults develop memory and thinking problems while others stay sharp. Investigators examined resting brain scans from two opposing groups: patients diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and older individuals known as "super agers," whose memory capabilities match people decades younger. SUBTLE CHANGE IN HOW YOU SPEAK COULD BE EARLY SIGN OF DEMENTIA RISK, NEW RESEARCH SUGGESTS Instead of looking for physical hallmarks like amyloid plaque accumulation or brain shrinkage, the researchers studied how different parts of the brain communicate with one another. By comparing the two groups’ brain activity patterns, the researchers calculated a measurement called the Alzheimer’s resilience-vulnerability connectome score, or ARC score, that distinguishes super agers from people with Alzheimer’s with about 85% accuracy. "I'm excited we established a signature that can help us better understand the difference between people who can maintain excellent cognitive performance and people who show cognitive decline," Yu Zhang, the study's senior author and an assistant professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Stanford Medicine, said in a press release. DEMENTIA RISK MAY BE LINKED TO SEEMINGLY HARMLESS DAILY HABIT, NEW RESEARCH SUGGESTS Next, the scientists applied the scoring model to more than 1,300 cognitively unimpaired adults aged 55 to 70. Although all the adults scored normally on memory tests, their brain scans showed differences: Some had activity patterns similar to super agers, while others had patterns more like those seen in people with Alzheimer’s. CLICK HERE FOR MORE HEALTH STORIES Over follow-up periods of up to 12 years, with most participants tracked for five to six years, those whose brain activity more closely resembled Alzheimer’s patterns showed faster declines in memory and thinking, developed more amyloid plaques and were more likely to be diagnosed with the disease, the researchers found. The team found that the ARC score matched or outperformed standard risk measures, including amyloid and tau biomarkers as well as genetic testing, in spotting early decline. "We compared the ARC score with existing biomarkers in predicting people converting to Alzheimer's disease," lead author Kanhao Zhao, a postdoctoral scholar in psychiatry at Stanford Medicine, said in the release. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTER "Our model shows comparable or better prediction ability, and it can do so at an earlier time point. And if we combine our score with the existing biomarkers, the prediction performance improves." TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ Alzheimer’s disease affects millions of older adults worldwide, according to major health institutions. A central challenge in treating the disease is that physical damage often begins decades before patients notice memory lapses, at which point treatments offer limited benefit. Researchers stressed that the brain scan method is not yet ready for doctors to use on its own to diagnose Alzheimer’s. More studies are needed to confirm its accuracy and compare it with other new tests. However, understanding how brain activity differs between healthy aging and neurodegeneration could help researchers test future treatments, including techniques that stimulate the brain without surgery. "There are two main components: One is to know which part of the brain to target. The other is how we should change it," Zhang said. "That's why identifying the super ager brain resilience pattern is a critical component — so we know what a good pattern should be."

Earlier this week, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and other NFL officials accompanied club officials, including owner George McCaskey and Bears President and CEO Kevin Warren, to a meeting with Illinois legislative leaders in Chicago. At the meeting, the group agreed to continue working to lay a path for authoring legislation that could result in the Bears agreeing to build their new stadium in Arlington Heights, Illinois or perhaps even Chicago. CHICAGO POLITICIANS ARE DOING WINDY CITY POLITICIAN THINGS TO TRY TO KEEP THE BEARS IN TOWN This comes after the Bears announced in August that their "sole focus" for undergoing such a project was in Indiana. "The Chicago Bears remain committed to building a world-class stadium and mixed-use district for our fans, the Chicagoland community and the team," the Bears said in a statement on Friday. "We continue to work collaboratively with local and state leaders in Indiana to advance our stadium development plans in Hammond, where we are finalizing due diligence details across two sites in the Wolf Lake area." Fine, but here comes the new stuff: "At the same time, we appreciate the recent engagement from Illinois leadership to explore legislation which allows us to share our feedback. We expect productive dialogue with both leadership teams in the coming weeks. "We have a responsibility and obligation to explore every option available to the club, and we look forward to developing a transformational project that will attract global events and deliver jobs and economic growth to all Chicagoland." Translation: The Bears said in late summer they were close to leaving Illinois after state lawmakers failed to offer the tax relief Indiana did. But seeing the possibility of losing a legacy NFL franchise that is more than 100 years old to another state finally got Illinois legislators moving. And so the Bears, who don't really want to leave town, are promising to hear them out even if it means extending what has become a stadium relocation drama. CHICAGO MAYOR MAKES STUNNING ADMISSION ABOUT ATTENDING BEARS GAME WHILE TRYING TO KEEP TEAM IN CITY The politicians in Illinois seem optimistic. Gov. J.B. Pritzker said this week legislation meant to keep the Bears in Illinois is coming. ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON'T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW! "Well, you know, we've been working with the Chicago Bears, and we've been working with the city of Arlington Heights, as well as the folks in the city of Chicago, on where the Bears might want to build a stadium, and what that legislation will look like," Pritzker said. "I think it'll get taken up in the Veto session in mid-November and early December. "What I can do is make sure that there is a piece of legislation that would work for the Bears. And then it's up to the Bears where they want to put their stadium, and we want to make sure that the opportunity for them is in the state of Illinois." Illinois lawmakers previously failed to provide the tax and infrastructure certainty the Bears sought, which is what caused the franchise to turn to Hammond, and on June 5, 2026, its board voted to "advance" the Indiana project, saying it would "transform the region." In August, Warren declared, "Our sole focus at this point in time is working on a world-class stadium and mixed-use development in Hammond, Indiana," while also saying Indiana had an "excellent deal" and that the team was working "to bring that to life." But the NFL doesn't love that idea behind the scenes. And the Bears don't necessarily want to do that either. No one is going to admit that publicly. The public stance remains, as the statement Friday reads, that Hammond remains the site where due diligence is being finalized and is very much a possibility. Until it is not.

(Photo by James E. Garcia/For the Arizona Mirror) It wasn’t on the ballot, but I can’t help thinking it must have been on the minds of so many of us who voted in this election. I’m not talking about healthcare, reproductive rights, immigration, voting rights, tariffs or even the price of a gallon of gasoline. Oh, all of that has certainly been top of mind for most of us. I’m talking about something much more fundamental to a thriving democracy: civility. GET THE MORNING HEADLINES. SUBSCRIBE I haven’t seen a lot of it lately, and I miss it. Of course, nasty political campaigning has been around as long as our democracy. In the 1800 race for the presidency, Thomas Jefferson’s backers called his opponent and fellow founding father John Adams a hermaphrodite and monarchist, while a Jefferson critic called him an atheist who would usher in an era of “murder, robbery, rape, adultery and incest.” In 1964, incumbent President Lyndon Johnson detonated a political bomb when he aired the now infamous “Daisy” campaign TV ad, showing a little girl picking daisies as an ominous voice counted down from 10 to a nuclear explosion, insinuating that electing his Republican opponent, Arizona’s Barry Goldwater, would lead to global extermination. But distasteful campaign tactics like that used to be the exception. They’re now the rule. There used to be a line most candidates wouldn’t cross, things they wouldn’t dare say — at least not publicly. Today, we’re bombarded nonstop with negative messaging. Remember when elected officials made us chuckle (or at least roll our eyes) when they’d talk about “my good friends across the aisle”? Truth is that partisan adversaries really did get together for drinks and dinner after spending the day fervently arguing for their respective pet causes. All of this has been on my mind since I attended a gathering last month of more than 500 Valley faith and civic leaders with the organizers’ stated goal, according to their press release, “to unite behind the shared stories of people from across Maricopa County and build a voice that spans race, party and religion to put the everyday issues affecting our communities front and center ahead of midterm elections.”  A lofty aim. Did they pull it off? Yes. The event was put together by Valley Interfaith Project, an affiliate of the famously progressive national Industrial Areas Foundation founded in 1940.  If you care about democracy, the scene at St. Francis Xavier’s Anderson Hall in was inspiring. The room was packed with an array of everyday voters and community leaders who had traveled from across the Valley to hear elected and appointed officials publicly commit to Valley Interfaith’s nonpartisan agenda. No one was ambushed. They all knew in advance why they were invited and what questions would be asked by faith and civic leaders, which included the likes of Bishop John P. Dolan, who leads Phoenix’s Catholic Diocese. In response, police chiefs from Phoenix and Glendale pledged to the crowd that they would resist federal pressure to help in detaining undocumented immigrants. City council members and legislative candidates promised to work to address violent crime in central Phoenix, the lack of affordable housing and healthcare, and the rising cost of living. I first crossed paths with an IAF-affiliated group more than 30 years ago in San Antonio, Texas. There, the group had organized a successful grassroots campaign to convince city officials to repair the streets and drainage system to prevent flooding in the community’s low-income neighborhoods. For the Phoenix event, invitations went out to Republicans, Democrats and independents alike. Campaign speeches were prohibited. The audience came to hear direct answers to their concerns, and that’s what they got. Pastor Anna Rieke of Christ the Lord Lutheran Church in Carefree told 12 News that public safety and economic stability in Maricopa County were the top concerns. “The hot (issues) right now are around neighborhood safety, things like shootings in neighborhoods around the 27th- and 19th Avenue corridors,” Rieke said. “Economic investment, so opportunities for people to make a wage and support their families.” To drive home Valley Interfaith’s message, the audience got to hear stories from ordinary people about the challenges they face every day. One man talked about undocumented immigrants victimized by crime in his neighborhood who worried that, if they called police, they’d be handed over to federal authorities. A single mom, with help from the community scholarship, described how she worked her way through college to earn a nursing degree and better her life. As I listened that night, I was reminded that most voters are far less interested in political labels and campaign rhetoric than in finding leaders who can and want to solve our problems. The event also reminded me that “democracy neither begins nor ends at the ballot box,” as Valley Interfaith said in its press release, and that civil political debate is not only still possible but needed now more than ever.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee2f6c69fbdcb35dec51a1 “Hope is an action”: Lochiel cottonwoods razed for border wall live on in cuttings and ofrenda te 2026-11-06T19:50:04.520Z “Hope is an action”: Lochiel cottonwoods razed for border wall live on in cuttings and ofrenda Maxie Adler holds her hands to the side of her face and grins, staring at the cuttings with baby sprouts from elder cottonwoods — known as grandmother and abuela — that once stood strong at the border in Lochiel. She reaches down to carefully cradle a small planter. Skinny stems now at a Tucson garden burst with budding bright green leaves. The cuttings are from centuries-old cottonwood trees that lived along the U.S.-México border — in a remote area in the San Rafael Valley about 25 miles east of Nogales — until about a month ago. Grandmother was rooted in Arizona. Abuela was rooted in Sonora. In late July, Department of Homeland Security contractors cut down three of four cottonwoods that lined the easement road on the U.S. side to make way for two border walls.  For 71 days, environmental activists from across the U.S. took turns living in the remaining tree rooted in the desert borderlands to spare the grandmother cottonwood from destruction. The fourth and final tree saw the same felled fate the morning of Oct. 5. That’s when masked, armed Border Patrol agents raided a protest camp so contractors could chop down the last standing cottonwood tree — grandmother — in Lochiel. Contractors cut Abuela down days later.  Pieces of the cottonwood trees gathered by two Southern Arizona environmental advocates now live on at Tohono Chul Sonoran Botanic Garden, where Jack Dash, gardens and facilities manager, has been tending to their propagation. In late October, the grandmother tree cuttings stood at about barely four inches. When Maxie visits the garden, she also checks on separate cottonwood cuttings she saved in Lochiel in July. Those stems are already about a foot tall, with healthy, lime-green leaves.  After seeing destruction of the cottonwoods in Lochiel, and the many other ways border wall construction is threatening plants and the wildlife that roam the region, environmental advocates are finding ways to hold space for environmental grief. They want to honor ancient cottonwoods that had survived for generations. They’re also finding community and healing in collective grief, as they continue to resist environmental destruction. When Maxie first heard that three elder cottonwood trees had been cut down, she had to do something. The next morning, she drove to Lochiel. She walked toward one of the felled cottonwoods lying horizontally. She saw “bursts of new growth and leaves still present, signs of life and health,” she says. Maxie wrapped her arms around the giant toppled tree. “As I hugged the trunk of the tree, I remember the ache in my heart almost felt good,” Maxie  says. “Like a reminder that my heart is still alive and present with what’s happening.”  The scene reminded her of when she saw chopped up saguaros on the desert floor in 2019 at Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. DHS contractors — under the first Trump administration — razed the protected habitat for border construction. Maxie has seen growing environmental destruction along the borderlands as the federal government continues to invest billions of taxpayer dollars to build the border wall.  “I think it’s fair that our bodies start to numb, but it’s also scary to feel the ways in which we are called towards apathy,” she says. “These ancient cottonwood trees reminded me to be brave, to witness, and to grieve and to hope again.”  She walked to the grandmother tree and sat in her shade.  Before leaving Lochiel that day, she took cuttings from the chopped trees and handed them over to “the person I trust most in the world with plants,” her friend Jack. On Oct. 5, Erick Meza, border program coordinator with the Sierra Club Grand Canyon Chapter, went to Lochiel to support protesters in the aftermath of that morning’s raid. He had visited Lochiel several times, bringing supplies and food to the protest camp.  After spending that night in Lochiel, Meza also saved cuttings from the final grandmother tree and brought them to Jack. He left some cuttings for others who said they would take them to Borderlands Nursery and Seed, a native plant nursery in Patagonia, closer to their original home.  “That was just kind of like a really good feeling of hope, that the trees wouldn’t necessarily die, but they will transform,” Erick says. “And their same essence and spirit that gave us hope will continue.” A final batch of cuttings came from the “abuela” cottonwood, Jack says, a fifth tree that contractors cut down on the México side.  Maxie Adler (left) smiles as she sees the cuttings from the grandmother cottonwood tree as Jack Dash (left) talks about their growth in a controlled climate in a greenhouse at Tohono Chul Gardens on Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2026. The cuttings are from two ancient cottonwoods that once stood near the border, one in Mexico and the other on the U.S. side, until contractors cut them down last month to make way for border wall construction. Credit: Stephanie Casanova An ofrenda for a grandmother in downtown Tucson Nearly nine miles south of the garden’s growing cottonwood cuttings, at Presidio San Agustín del Tucsón Museum in downtown, three women are setting up an ofrenda, or an altar, to honor the grandmother cottonwood tree. On a recent Thursday morning, Emily Burns, Meagan Bethel and Tika Arnold, from Sky Island Alliance, are fixing final details for the altar. The museum hosts ofrendas from community groups every year for Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, a traditional Mexican holiday when people honor their loved ones and ancestors.  Emily, Meagan and Tika work in tandem. They place a cardboard cutout depicting the border wall toward the back of the table. Then, they pick up an artist’s replica of the grandmother cottonwood tree born and grown to old age on the border. Crafted of chicken wire and papier mache, with bright green leaves made of cardstock. They place the tree at the center of the table. After evaluating the setup, they move the border wall to the right, and move the tree left, off-center, so that it’s illuminated by a spotlight directly above.  They hang a banner on the tree with photos of wildlife. It’s a tribute to the banners environmental protesters from across the country — fighting to save a life — wrapped around the cottonwoods in Lochiel. Next to the tree in the ofrenda are framed photos of the cottonwoods and plants that stood in Lochiel for hundreds of years.   “I think we’re getting down to the final touches,” Emily tells the two women.”The flowers look nice, I like the flowers behind grandmother.”  The three women stand at a distance, analyzing and admiring their work.  “She’s ready to zhuzh,” Tika says. Meagan, Sky Island’s wildlife specialist, approaches the ofrenda to make small, finishing adjustments.  An ofrenda at Presidio San Agustín del Tucsón Museum in downtown honors the grandmother cottonwood tree in Lochiel, which DHS contractors cut down last month to make way for two border walls in the San Rafael Valley region. Sky Island Alliance workers set up the ofrenda at the museum on Thursday, Oct. 22, 2026. Credit: Stephanie Casanova “Grief is a way back into the world” Emily has worked in the environmental protection space for more than 15 years. She started to realize the toll that environmental destruction was having on her mental and physical health, she says.  Emily recognized she would not be able to continue the work if she didn’t address the grief she was holding. So she started journaling, meditating and learning breathwork to cope. She’s still learning ways to hold both grief and joy.   “It’s okay to look outside and be inspired by seeing an amazing bird flying through your garden,” Emily says. “To be so happy when it rains and to feel that positive energy that is restorative for us, and at the same time, know that in many instances things are not going the way we want.” Now, Emily is helping make space for others to work through environmental grief together. On Oct. 15, Sky Island Alliance hosted a webinar: “Tending Environmental Grief: Being with heartbreak and creating resilience together.”  More than 100 people registered, and more than 50 attended the webinar, led by Maria Renee, an artist, environmental conservationist and grief consultant. Grieving in community becomes a way for people to connect with one another, Renee told Arizona Luminaria.  “Grief is a way back into the world. It’s a way back into connection,” she says. “And if we are not connected with each other and with the land, it’s harder for us to be resilient to face whatever is coming next.” As part of its environmental grief series, Sky Island Alliance is inviting people to participate in practices to help them work through those emotions. The first exercise invites people to go to their favorite landscape that may bring up a sense of grief. Observe and create a response to what they witness, whether it’s writing a poem, drawing or anything else that comes to mind.  “We are not going to give way to hopelessness” At Tohono Chul, Maxie sees the cottonwood cuttings for the first time since she dropped them off in July.  “Wow, they’ve grown so much,” she says, smiling down at the 32 sprouts in front of her, all lined on a shelf in an outdoor propagation garden.  “This is that first round. We figured, until it gets cold, leave them out and let them get some real sunshine,” Jack tells her. “And they’ve been growing really, really quickly, just starting to put roots out.”  He picks up a pot. Flips it upside down. Holding the plant carefully, he shows Maxie the roots.  Inside a greenhouse, the grandmother’s and abuela’s cuttings are much smaller, growing strong in a climate-controlled environment. Away from their homeland 90 miles south where they grew free. For Maxie, deciding to propagate the ancient cottonwoods was her way of tending to the future she and others imagine. “Hope is an action,” one that requires people to be brave, she says.  “Part of honoring these ancient cottonwood trees, and the over 200 years that they have witnessed, is by believing that their babies, their offspring, their genetics, are all worthy of the next 200 plus years,” she says.  Maxie Adler holds cuttings from the grandmother cottonwood tree that once stood in Lochiel for more than 200 years. Now, its cuttings are growing at the Tohono Chul Gardens after environmental advocates saved pieces of the tree to propagate. Credit: Stephanie Casanova Jack worries that environmental grief could turn into hopelessness or apathy, as the pain becomes so much, the problem so complex, that people just want to “callous the wound.” “What I like about the cuttings is that it’s a form of hope,” Jack says. “It’s a way to continue loving these individual trees and the landscape that they’ve evolved in. It’s an act that says that we are not going to give way to hopelessness.” At the Día de los Muertos ofrenda, people are paying their respects to the ancient cottonwoods. At the garden, what’s left of the trees grows — slowly – again. Once they’ve grown enough to be replanted, Maxie wants to take some of the elders home. Plant them in the San Rafael Valley that they once lived in for generations — where the borderlands people who cared for them before, can care for them again.

After his exit, he migrated to Bluesky. Jones explained that he had to depart X because it was "too hateful." But unlike other full-time Bluesky posters, the far-left former sportscaster is not thrilled with the results of the 2026 midterms. Despite the Democrats’ projected victories in the House and Senate, Jones is irked that Florida stayed red. "Only in Florida will voters drive through flooded streets because the governor vetoed flood remediation projects to build a now defunct concentration camp in the Everglades and vote the same party in power," Jones posted. Wait, what? "Only in Florida can people steal $10m from sick children and still get voted into power," he added. Jones has also posted photos celebrating former NBC Sports reporter Michele Tafoya losing her Senate race in Minnesota. The fact that Jones, who lacks both talent and wit, survived for so long at ESPN and in sports media is an indictment of both institutions. Here is a look at some of his greatest hits: I know what you are thinking: Batman, really? Talk about privilege. For those wondering why a 65-year-old man would act this way and post using words like "bih," we are happy to explain. The overwhelming belief among people who worked with Jones, including OutKick host Dan Dakich, is that Jones wants to overcompensate for the backlash he received after marrying a White woman. Jones received the same ridicule from "Black Twitter" that Robert Griffin III faced after he married a White woman. Most recently, former ESPN host Ryan Clark shamed Griffin over it. It certainly appears that Jones believes the most effective way to counter people questioning his "Blackness" is to act hostile toward White people online. Jones is not a racist, but he seemingly wants people to think he is one. We maintain that wannabe racists, like Jones and Jemele Hill, are even worse than actual racists. Mark Jones is a fraud. At least he still wore his BLM mask years after COVID: However, do not expect him to focus on Florida politics for long. Given his previous remarks about Nikola Jokic, Luka Doncic, and Caitlin Clark, Jones will soon try to convince his Bluesky audience that he is the captain of the Cooper Flagg Hate Club. In private, he is probably among Flagg’s biggest fans. He probably also watches Batman films regularly.

After all, most workplaces keep lists of names and phone numbers so people can reach one another. But what happens when that information belongs to thousands of federal agents, including people connected to undercover investigations? A massive Homeland Security data leak has exposed records involving more than 41,000 employees and contractors. The information includes contact details, office locations and internal access groups tied to sensitive government operations. Some records even point to surveillance programs and artificial intelligence tools used within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Now, federal officials are scrambling to contain the fallout as concerns grow over the safety of agents and their families.

DHS INVESTIGATES MASSIVE DATA BREACH EXPOSING 40,000 EMPLOYEES, INCLUDING ICE AND BORDER PATROL AGENTS On Oct. 28, the nonprofit Distributed Denial of Secrets published a collection of DHS records under the name Icepick. The information reportedly came from a group calling itself the Department of Peace, which claims it obtained access to internal government systems. The records reportedly cover DHS and seven of its component agencies, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The files contain employee names, agency email addresses and workplace locations. They also include phone numbers, some identified as cell phone numbers, along with supervisors and internal access-group memberships. However, it has not been established that employees' private home addresses were included. CBP accounts for more than half the records, while roughly 10,000 involve ICE. Another 6,200 are tied to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. The records were last updated on Aug. 19, so some assignments may have changed. That's an enormous amount of organizational information to have floating around publicly. And the deeper researchers looked, the more sensitive the findings became. One of the most alarming findings involves internal groups associated with undercover investigations. WIRED identified 39 Homeland Security Investigations employees connected to access groups referencing certified undercover operations. Other groups reference communications interception programs and surveillance technology. The files also reveal reporting relationships that could help someone understand how different parts of DHS work together. That raises a difficult security concern. People conducting undercover investigations depend on keeping certain relationships and assignments confidential. Revealing those connections could create risks for ongoing operations. Still, membership in an internal access group does not automatically confirm that every person listed was working undercover. The leaked records offer clues about sensitive assignments, but they don't establish every individual's operational role. Former acting ICE director John Sandweg called the exposure a "nightmare scenario". He warned that revealing agents' identities could put people in danger and interfere with criminal investigations. Here's another part of this story that caught my attention. The leaked records reveal internal access groups referencing technology used for investigations and government operations. Some groups mention Palantir's Falcon investigative platform, which helps investigators analyze information. Others reference surveillance-related software, including tools used to examine phone records. Then there's artificial intelligence. WIRED found groups mentioning OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google's Gemini and Microsoft's Copilot. One group labeled "Grok.com" included eight DHS technology officials. That doesn't prove these employees actively used the services or that the technology companies experienced breaches. The group names can reflect access permissions rather than actual activity. Even so, the information offers outsiders a closer look at the technologies DHS personnel may have access to. For an agency responsible for national security, those internal details can be valuable to people looking for weaknesses. FBI SAYS SOURCE OF ITS JOBS PORTAL BREACH STILL UNKNOWN AS HACKERS ALLEGE EMPLOYEE DATA COMPROMISED The group claiming responsibility says it accessed the information through DHS's Okta sign-in system. Okta provides identity and access-management technology that organizations use to control employee logins. However, Okta says it has no evidence that its own systems or data were compromised. That leaves the actual entry point unresolved. DHS has acknowledged a potential breach and says it is investigating. The department has not publicly confirmed how the information was obtained. It's also important to understand what has been established so far. The reporting centers on personnel information and access-group details. It has not confirmed that employee passwords, intercepted communications or investigative case files were included. Until investigators explain what happened, there's no reliable basis for blaming a specific vulnerability or software provider. We reached out to the Department of Homeland Security and Okta for additional comment. A DHS spokesperson provided the following statement: "DHS is aware of a potential breach and is actively working to address the situation swiftly and effectively. We take all security threats against our employees and officers seriously and will work to ensure all are properly protected. We will update the public when more information is available." Okta had not responded to our request for additional comment by our deadline. As the records spread online, DHS moved to limit access. On Oct. 29, a company reportedly authorized to seek content removals on behalf of ICE contacted Icelandic hosting provider FlokiNET. The request warned that the database exposed more than 40,000 identifiable individuals to potential harassment and physical harm. However, the hosting company declined to remove the material, saying the records contained workplace contact information rather than private home contact details. The database briefly became inaccessible before appearing again elsewhere. Then, on Oct. 30, SITE Intelligence Group had reportedly identified threatening online rhetoric following the release. Some social media users reportedly threatened immigration officers and their families. Those reports raise additional concerns about what happens after sensitive personnel information becomes searchable. Even if the original files disappear, copies may already exist elsewhere. You might be wondering why a federal employee database should concern someone who works in an office, owns a small business or has nothing to do with immigration enforcement. Think about how a convincing scam works. Someone contacts you claiming to be from your company's IT department. They know your supervisor's name and your work email address. They even mention an internal system you're familiar with. Suddenly, that unexpected message sounds a lot more believable. That's the danger when attackers combine workplace records with information they find elsewhere online. They can use those details to create personalized phishing messages or impersonate trusted colleagues. We've seen related concerns before. In our reporting on the FBI hack claim involving sensitive personnel data, we examined how employee information could expose individuals and their families to additional risks. And that's what concerns me about this latest incident. Even information that seems routine can become dangerous when someone connects it to other records. You may have no control over how your employer stores its records. However, there are ways to reduce the amount of personal information available about you and make targeted scams harder to pull off. If someone contacts you claiming to be from your employer's IT department, don't assume they're legitimate because they know your name or job title. Contact your IT department using a phone number or communication channel you already trust. Avoid clicking links in unexpected password-reset emails, especially when the message creates urgency. A convincing message can still lead to a fake login page designed to steal your credentials. Your primary email account deserves special attention because criminals may use it to reset passwords for other services. Use a strong, unique password for every important account and consider a reputable password manager to create and store them. Turn on multifactor authentication or passkeys wherever available. Also review your recovery email addresses and phone numbers to make sure nobody has changed them without your permission. Once criminals have detailed information about you, they may send phishing messages containing malicious links or infected attachments. Strong antivirus software can provide an additional layer of protection by helping detect malicious downloads, known phishing websites and malware before they cause damage. Keep your operating system and security software updated so you receive the latest protections. Antivirus software cannot remove your information from a leaked database. However, it can help protect your devices against attacks that may follow an exposure. No security tool catches every threat, so continue checking unexpected messages carefully. Get my picks for the best 2026 antivirus protection winners for your Windows, Mac, Android and iOS devices at CyberGuy.com. Here's something I strongly recommend considering. Data brokers collect personal information from public records and online sources. That information can include your home address, personal phone number and details about relatives. When someone already has your workplace information, finding additional personal details may make harassment or impersonation attempts easier. A reputable data removal service can help remove your personal information from participating data broker and people-search websites. Services such as Incogni automate removal requests and continue checking for information that reappears. You can also contact individual data brokers yourself, although that takes more time and ongoing follow-up. Keep in mind that these services cannot guarantee removal from every website or erase the original DHS leak. For more information, see our guide on how to remove your personal information from the web and keep it from coming back. Check out my top picks for data removal services and get a free scan to find out if your personal information is already out on the web by visiting CyberGuy.com. Search your own name and see what appears. You may discover old professional profiles, forgotten social media accounts or websites showing personal contact details. Check the privacy settings on your social media accounts and limit how much information strangers can see about your family. Be especially careful about publicly revealing your home location or daily routine if you work in a sensitive position. If you discover unwanted personal information online, contact the website or platform and request removal where possible. The reported DHS records center on workplace information. So far, there has been no confirmation that Social Security numbers or financial account details were included. Still, exposed contact information can help criminals build more convincing scams. Monitor your important accounts for unfamiliar activity and pay attention to suspicious password-reset messages. If you discover that sensitive identity information has been compromised elsewhere, consider freezing your credit with Equifax, Experian and TransUnion. Identity monitoring services may also help flag certain signs of fraud. However, they cannot prevent every type of identity theft or guarantee that your information will stay private. See my tips and best picks on Best Identity Theft Protection at CyberGuy.com. If someone uses your workplace information to impersonate a colleague or threaten you, document what happened. Save relevant emails, screenshots and messages, then report the incident to your employer's security team. If you receive threats of violence, contact law enforcement. You can also report suspected internet crime through the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center at ic3.gov/. If you're an employee whose information may be involved in a breach, ask your employer whether you were affected and what protective steps it recommends. Don't rely on unsolicited callers claiming they can verify your exposure. What strikes me about this Homeland Security leak is how much damage a collection of workplace records could potentially cause. We're talking about information that many organizations use every day to help employees do their jobs. Yet in the wrong hands, those same details can help identify people involved in sensitive operations or make targeted scams much more convincing. I also believe there's an important conversation to be had about government transparency. Americans have a right to question how federal agencies operate and how officers are held accountable. But I worry about the consequences when information tied to undercover personnel becomes publicly searchable, especially now that threats against employees and their families have been reported. For me, the biggest unanswered question is how DHS allowed this information to become exposed in the first place. The department needs to explain what happened and how it plans to prevent another incident. In the meantime, there's a lesson here for all of us. Pay attention to how much personal information is available about you online. You may never be able to remove everything, but reducing your exposure can make it harder for someone to target you. Do you believe exposing the identities of federal agents is justified in the name of government transparency, even when it could put undercover operations and employees' families at risk?

He is not only the hockey GOAT (greatest of all time), holding dozens of records that many believe may never be broken. He is also beloved in both the United States and Canada. He's an Edmonton Oilers and Los Angeles Kings legend on the ice, but his relationship with President Trump and friendliness to the administration off the ice, has been considered a strain on that love and respect according to many Canadians in recent years. While at the grand opening of the Walter Gretzky Upper Deck Hockey Resource Center in Toronto, in honor of Wayne's father, Gretzky fielded questions about sports cards, collectibles, his father's legacy, his thoughts on how Canadians are not too fond of his friendly relationship with Trump, as well as how the Russia/Ukrainian War affects the sport of hockey. Gretzky discussed Upper Deck expanding its longstanding exclusive agreement with him, naming the "global icon" an Upper Deck Legacy Partner, joining NBA legend Michael Jordan. Jamie Dinsmore, President and CEO of the Hockey Hall of Fame said, "Wayne Gretzky’s impact on hockey extends far beyond records and championships, and we are honored to celebrate his enduring influence on our sport," Gretzky then fielded a few political questions. Speaking directly to his relationship with President Trump, "People can have their own opinions. That is what life is all about," Gretzky said. In the past, Gretzky has has defended his Canadian identity while insisting he prefers to stay out of politics, saying, "I'm just a hockey player," while trying not to be overly political. Gretzky has undoubtedly developed a close personal friendship with President Donald Trump over the decades. This is nothing new. Gretzky has frequently spent time with Trump at Mar-a-Lago in Florida. Gretzky is a Florida resident. Notably, his family attended Trump's 2024 election-night celebration and his January 2025 presidential inauguration, which didn't sit well with Canadians. Trump has also publicly praised "The Great One," even suggesting he run for Canadian prime minister. Their friendship has sparked backlash in Canada especially over the last few years, particularly over Trump's comments about making Canada the 51st U.S. state. That has led to Canadians booing the United States National Anthem and more animosity to between the two nations. Gretzky wrapped up his response by saying, "People are entitled to what they believe in and what their opinions are. It's as simple as that." PUTIN ACCUSES HOCKEY ORGANIZATIONS OF 'GROSS VIOLATION' AS CANADA BARS RUSSIA FROM WORLD JUNIORS A few minutes later Gretzky spoke about the ban of Russian and Belarusian teams from the upcoming World Junior Hockey Championship in Alberta as well as his candid thoughts on the war against Ukraine. "Nobody likes war, right?" Gretzky stated. "We definitely don't want to see this [war]. We hope it ends. We wish it didn't start." REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMAN PRESSES NHL OVER ALEX OVECHKIN’S APPEARANCE IN PUTIN PARTY CAMPAIGN AD The Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney made it clear recently that Russia and Belarus will not be welcome at the upcoming World Junior Hockey Championship in Alberta, declaring that as long as the war continues, "there will be none of those athletes competing for their countries in Canada." Meanwhile, six European nations, including Sweden, Finland and the Czech Republic, have threatened to boycott games against Russia, leaving international hockey facing a potential showdown between sports officials, national governments and the courts. In response to the questioning Friday and the Prime Minister's statements, Gretzky said, "I understand the stance the Prime Minister has taken and good for him." Gretzky also said, "I think a lot of the players and the people of Canada feel the same way." Gretzky, though he has ruffled feathers of Canadians for his clear friendly relationship with the commander in chief and the current administration, he is well-liked and respected and admired from the Canadians I've spoken with. He handled these questions with grace and transitioned smoothly back into stories about his father, buying the famous T206 Honus Wagner card, and his love for the games and for players like Connor McDavid. NEARLY $1M IN GRADED TRADING CARDS STOLEN FROM FEDEX TRUCK OUTSIDE PSA FACILITY IN SANTA ANA As for his father, moving on from the political talk at the behest of Upper Deck President Jason Masherah, Gretzky said, "My dad and my family mean everything to me, so the opportunity to honor him and showcase his impact to fans and collectors around the world is one that is close to my heart," said Wayne Gretzky. "I’m honored to be named an Upper Deck Legacy Partner by a company that has become like a second family to me over the decades we’ve worked together, and I’m looking forward to expanding this relationship for years to come." As stated in a press release from Upper Deck, the trading card and collectibles company "is marking the Legacy Partner distinction by introducing exclusive new collectibles, the "Upper Deck Master Collection – Wayne Gretzky" and a new Upper Deck Authenticated portfolio that will celebrate the story of Wayne Gretzky from the beginning of his career to the end, and all the accomplishments in between." "For decades, we’ve worked to capture the moments that defined Wayne Gretzky’s unparalleled career. His impact on the game of hockey is impossible to measure by records alone, so we’ve worked to create collectibles that tell the story of the mark he left on hockey," said Masherah. "We’re honored to welcome Wayne as a Legacy Partner and celebrate the impact his family had on his life and career, as well as the impact Gretzky continues to have on hockey at all levels."

Despite punditry still pointing to data centers today as the big issue, the polls show that far more voters all over the country had the economy on their minds, with prices for gas and diesel atop their list of economic issues when they went to the polls. It’s always the economy, stupid, as James Carville became famous for saying. The problem for Republicans — and for President Donald Trump — was the crystal clear cause-and-effect relationship between the Iran Conflict and the prices at the pump. There was simply no denying that the extra $15 to $20 bucks drivers were paying every time they filled up was a direct consequence of the war Mr. Trump kicked off on Feb. 28. The President’s rhetoric on the subject — constantly stating that higher gas prices were no big deal when compared to preventing the Iranian regime from getting a nuclear bomb — was not helpful, whether one agreed with it or not. It showed the leader of the Republican Party to be completely out of touch with the struggles of working families on the matter. For Americans living paycheck to paycheck, as most Americans still do, the price of gasoline is more than an economic issue: It’s also an emotional one because they have no choice but to pay the price, no matter how high it goes. President Trump and his party lost sight of that reality in this election, just as President Barack Obama and the Democrat Party lost sight of the average American’s emotional feelings related to rising medical costs and suffered a similar wipeout in the 2010 midterms. To be fair, the data center issue did show up big in some key races. In Ohio, Sherrod Brown beat incumbent Sen. John Husted after branding him “the face of data centers,” according to Fortune, which also noted that Husted had been “basically at every single ribbon cutting for data centers across the state.” In Michigan, Abdul El-Sayed held a rally in front of the OpenAI-Oracle campus site in Saline Township and ran on a “no rate hikes” promise. In Iowa, Democrat Rob Sand won the governor’s race promising to make data centers “pay their own way,” as reported by NewsNation. But then, Texas Governor Greg Abbott, Senate candidate Ken Paxton, and other Texas Republicans running for statewide offices made exactly the same pledge related to data centers. Every one of those Republicans were defeated by big margins. Why? Because the prices for gasoline and diesel overshadowed everything. The AP put it bluntly in its post-election analysis: “Voters could see it clearly in their receipts from grocery stores and gasoline stations.” It’s always the economy, stupid, and gas and diesel prices are the biggest issue facing voters in an economy that is strong overall. Let’s look at the receipts. On Election Day, AAA reported the national average for regular gasoline was $4.15 per gallon, with Diesel sitting at a whopping $6.29 — the highest prices ever recorded on a national general election day. That’s about a 35% increase year-over-year on gas and a 70% rise in diesel from a year before. That’s an emotional thing for most voters. As stated above, the cause of those price shocks was no mystery. Crude oil prices quickly spiked after the start of the Iran Conflict, taking gasoline prices along for the leap. Ukraine’s highly effective drone attacks on Russian refineries played a major role in causing the even bigger blowout in diesel prices over the same time period. Taken together, American consumers find themselves paying higher prices not just to fill up their tanks, but for all consumers goods that are transported on ships, trucks and trains that run on diesel. This isn’t complicated. Data centers made headlines and dominated specific campaigns in specific parts of the country. But the high costs for gasoline and diesel were the deciders nationwide. It’s always the economy, stupid, the price for gas was too damn high, and the cause-and-effect too crystal clear to hide. Originally published by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Miller will ascend to the role on Monday, officially replacing Susie Wiles, who Trump said will be moving to his political operation. "I want to thank her for her service as Chief of Staff — She has done a great job!" Trump wrote. Moments after Trump's announcement, Wiles issued a statement of her own.  "Today is my last day as White House Chief of Staff," Wiles said. "Serving President Trump in the White House has been the honor of a lifetime. I’m so proud to have been a part of what we’ve accomplished together from securing our border and cutting taxes to strengthening our economy and putting America First," she added. "More than anything, I’m grateful for the extraordinary people I’ve had the privilege of working alongside. While my role may be changing, my commitment to the President and the mission never will."

Rancho Mirage resident Imara Wallace began a series of beginner-friendly classes aimed at ages 5 and up. That started with a Halloween-themed class Oct. 31 with original choreography set to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller.” “It fit the Halloween spirit,” Wallace said. “Thriller is on every Halloween playlist.” Originally from California, the lifelong dancer turned dance teacher moved to Maricopa five years ago. She said she struggled to find consistent dance classes that appealed to her to her after moving to the city. After taking a break from dancing for a couple years, Wallace decided to start her own classes. The Halloween class was filled with dressed as Ghost Face from “Scream,” spooky specters and other characters as they practiced a variety of moves. “I missed dance. Since I couldn’t really find that dance community for myself, I wanted to at least provide it for others,” Wallace said. “I want the community to grow.” She hopes to bring more classes to the community through her business, 5 Starr Dance Studios.

"While this result is incredibly disheartening, voters in Washington and across the nation rejected anti-trans candidates up and down the ballot," Conrad said in the Nov. 5 statement. "The fight over I-638 is just beginning. We believe this initiative is unconstitutional on its face and support organizations planning to challenge it in court." The Washington State Democratic Party sent a statement to OutKick stating, "WA Dems will not be challenging the initiative in court. We believe there will be organizations who do and we support those efforts." WASHINGTON STATE VOTERS APPEAR TO PASS FIRST-EVER BALLOT MEASURE SEPARATING BOYS AND GIRLS SPORTS The party also declined to make Conrad available for an interview. Voters approved Initiative 638, which bars students the measure defines as biologically male from competing in girls’ K-12 athletic competitions. It also requires students seeking to compete in female-only sports to submit a health examination form or other statement from a health care provider verifying their biological sex based on reproductive anatomy, genetic makeup or normal endogenously produced testosterone levels. The Associated Press called the measure as passed, with about 56.6% support in results reported by Axios. The measure does not specify which examinations or tests providers must use. Opponents have warned it could lead to invasive exams or testing for girls. Let’s Go Washington, the group behind the initiative, says providers can rely on existing medical records and that the measure does not require genital exams. The Washington Interscholastic Activities Association has said its current sports physical rules do not require genital, DNA or hormone testing. Conrad said the measure "undoes protections in Washington state law passed 20 years ago" and added, "To every trans girl participating in school sports, please know that we support your right to play." I-638 changes Washington’s longstanding policy allowing students to participate on teams consistent with their gender identity. WASHINGTON STATE'S HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS LEAGUE PUTS ONUS FOR TRANS ATHLETE CONTROVERSY ON STATE LAWS The statement also highlighted voters’ rejection of two other measures backed by Let’s Go Washington: I-001, concerning parental rights and access to student information, and I-645, which sought to repeal the state’s new tax on income above $1 million, which has nothing to do with girls' sports. Voters approved I-638, the third measure in the group’s 2026 ballot effort. The Gender Justice League said it was evaluating legal options, while the ACLU of Washington declined to discuss potential litigation. I-638 is set to take effect Dec. 3, pending certification of the election results. Conrad’s statement also pointed to Jaelynn Scott’s election to the state House. Scott is set to become Washington’s first openly transgender state legislator and the first out Black transgender woman elected to a state legislature in the country. Here are three insert-ready paragraphs on the Washington cases: The dispute became especially visible in Camas, where about a dozen girls on the high school cross-country team walked off before a race to protest a transgender teammate’s participation. The runner had competed in the boys’ category earlier in the season before switching to the girls’ team; the district and the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association said her participation complied with existing rules. Washington’s wrestling policy is also being challenged in federal court. A Puyallup student identified in court filings as K.M.K. alleges that a transgender opponent sexually assaulted her during a December 2025 girls’ match. The claim has not resulted in criminal charges. K.M.K.’s family sued state and school officials and has asked the Supreme Court for emergency relief after lower courts denied an injunction. The Supreme Court docket showed the application remained pending as of its latest listed filing on Nov. 3. A girls’ basketball game in Tumwater prompted a separate Title IX dispute. In February 2025, Tumwater player Frances Staudt sat out a game against Shelton after learning a transgender student was on the opposing girls’ team. A complaint filed on Staudt’s behalf alleged that the district denied her a fair opportunity to compete and retaliated against her for speaking out. The U.S. Department of Education opened an investigation; that action was an inquiry into the allegations, not a finding that the district violated Title IX. Tumwater said it took the matter seriously and would work with the department.

Here are three underdogs worth a look. 76ers at Cavaliers, 7:30 p.m. ET LeBron James returns to Cleveland with Philadelphia, and he’ll have Tyrese Maxey alongside him. The Cavs have the home crowd and a new backcourt pairing of James Harden and Donovan Mitchell that’s still learning how to share the ball. East Group B is the toughest group in the tournament, with the defending champion Knicks, Miami and Indiana also in the mix. A road win here would be a massive early statement for Philly. Grizzlies vs. Thunder, 8:00 p.m. ET Oklahoma City has the reigning MVP in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, but it’s also missing Jalen Williams, Chet Holmgren and Cason Wallace. Memphis gets the Thunder at home, and a depleted favorite on the road is a classic Cup-night trap. Wizards at Hawks, 7:00 p.m. ET Trae Young heads back to Atlanta with Washington, where he’ll pair with Anthony Davis against the team that drafted him. Revenge games bring out the best in stars, and the Wizards have the top-end talent to steal one on the road in East Group C. The Pick: 76ers Moneyline Of the three, Philadelphia has the best mix of talent and motivation. LeBron in a homecoming game, Maxey’s ability to take over and a Cavs team still sorting out its rotation make this the cleanest plus-money shot of the night.

LeBron James points (higher) | 76ers at Cavaliers, 7:30 p.m. ET: This is the reunion game of the night. LeBron returns to Cleveland in a 76ers uniform, in a group that includes the defending champion Knicks, Miami and Indiana. East Group B is the toughest pod in the tournament, and a game this emotional in a building that knows him best is the kind of spot where he takes over. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander points (higher) | Thunder at Grizzlies, 8:00 p.m. ET: The reigning MVP is carrying a short-handed Thunder team. Oklahoma City has been without Jalen Williams, Chet Holmgren and Cason Wallace, which leaves Gilgeous-Alexander with an even bigger share of the offense. In a tight West Group B, the Thunder need him to be great on the road. Victor Wembanyama rebounds (higher) | Spurs at Kings, 10:00 p.m. ET: Wembanyama spent the offseason refining his post game, but his impact on the glass is what makes him a nightly double-double threat. The Spurs are in West Group C with the Lakers, Warriors and Trail Blazers, and every group game counts. Luka Dončić assists (higher) | Trail Blazers at Lakers, 10:00 p.m. ET: Dončić has full control of the Lakers’ offense now, and Portland’s defense will have to choose between taking away his scoring or his passing. Either way, his playmaking should show up in the box score. Nine NBA Cup games, a LeBron homecoming and stars all over the board.

East Group B: 76ers at Cavaliers, 7:30 p.m. ET The toughest group in the tournament. Philadelphia, Cleveland, Miami, Indiana and the defending champion Knicks are all fighting for one guaranteed spot. LeBron James returns to Cleveland for the first of his reunion games, and the Cavs counter with James Harden and Donovan Mitchell. Whoever loses this one is already behind in a group with no easy outs. East Group C: Wizards at Hawks and Celtics at Hornets, 7:00 p.m. ET Boston is the favorite in this group on paper, but the Celtics have been eliminated in the group stage each of the last two seasons. Washington has a new look with Trae Young and Anthony Davis, and Atlanta is coming off a playoff year. East Group A: Raptors at Bucks, 8:00 p.m. ET Kawhi Leonard leads a balanced Toronto team into Milwaukee in a group that also includes Detroit, Orlando and Brooklyn. West Group A: Jazz at Mavericks, 8:00 p.m. ET Cooper Flagg and Dallas need to bank wins against Utah in a group headlined by Denver. West Group B: Thunder at Grizzlies, 8:00 p.m. ET, and Timberwolves at Pelicans, 8:00 p.m. ET Oklahoma City is the group favorite, but it’s playing without Jalen Williams, Chet Holmgren and Cason Wallace. West Group C: Trail Blazers at Lakers and Spurs at Kings, 10:00 p.m. ET The late window features Luka Dončić and Victor Wembanyama on the West Coast in a group that also includes Golden State. Here’s the contrarian spot. Oklahoma City is the obvious name in West Group B, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is the reigning MVP. But the Thunder are missing their second-best scorer, their starting center and one of their best perimeter defenders, and Wednesday night they had to go through a Cavaliers team with Harden and Mitchell. A road game on short rest against a Memphis team playing at home in a Cup game is the kind of spot where depth gets exposed. The public will back the MVP. Take Memphis and the points.

Trae Young assists (higher) | Wizards at Hawks, 7:00 p.m. ET The first reunion of the night tips early. Young returns to Atlanta, where he spent his entire career before landing in Washington alongside Anthony Davis. Players in revenge spots tend to dominate the ball, and Young running the show against his old team in an East Group C game should mean plenty of chances to rack up assists. Davis gives him a reliable finisher to find inside. Donovan Mitchell points (higher) | 76ers at Cavaliers, 7:30 p.m. ET Most of the attention in Cleveland will go to LeBron James’ return, which is exactly why Mitchell is the play. The Cavs are in East Group B, the toughest group in the tournament, alongside the defending champion Knicks, Miami and Indiana. With James Harden setting the table, Mitchell gets to work off the ball and attack a Sixers defense that will be locked in on LeBron’s matchup. Cooper Flagg points (higher) | Jazz at Mavericks, 8:00 p.m. ET The reigning Rookie of the Year has a much bigger role in Year 2, and Dallas needs to bank home wins in a West Group A that includes Denver and Houston. Utah is one of the friendlier matchups on the board, and Flagg should have plenty of room to attack. Kawhi Leonard points (higher) | Raptors at Bucks, 8:00 p.m. ET Leonard leads a well-balanced Toronto team into Milwaukee in East Group A. He’s still one of the most efficient scorers in the league when he’s healthy, and road games in a group with no clear favorite are where veterans like Leonard tend to take over late. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and a short-handed Thunder team visit Memphis at 8 p.m. ET, while Luka Dončić’s Lakers host Portland and Victor Wembanyama’s Spurs visit Sacramento in the 10 p.m. ET window.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee1f0d69fbdcb35dec4d52 Nick Saban speaks truth on CFP expansion: ‘There’s not 24 teams’ that can win a national title, but money wins te 2026-11-06T18:40:13.630Z Nick Saban speaks truth on CFP expansion: ‘There’s not 24 teams’ that can win a national title, but money wins The impending expansion of the college football playoff has led to fans sounding off on the decision to move from 12 to 24 teams after only three years after adding eight teams to the current format. There have certainly been questions as to why it was so important from a timing standpoint to make the drastic move in adding 12 teams in such a short period of time, as ESPN and the CFP finalize their new television rights agreement over the next few weeks. While most of it has centered around the need to give more college football teams the opportunity at competing for a national championship, and providing conferences with justification for their spending to be competitive, a majority of fans have made it clear that making this type of leap is not worth the hassle that comes with it. But, the most obvious argument comes down to the fact that there are not 24 teams in college football worthy enough of winning a national championship, especially in this era of the sport with teams spending upwards of $45 million to piece together a roster. The real reason is somewhere in the middle between justifying that amount of money spent on contending for a title and what each school is doing to compete on a yearly basis with no guaranteed return on investment. COLLEGE FOOTBALL’S MEGA ROSTERS AREN’T DELIVERING A RETURN ON INVESTMENT AS LSU, TEXAS A&M AND OREGON PROVE "Too many. There’s not 24 teams in the country that can win a National Championship," Nick Saban told the Kelce brothers on the New Heights podcast. "So, what is the reason to actually do it? It’s about the money. What you’re giving up, which I hate to see, the SEC Championship Game, playing in the SEC Championship was a big thing for our players, it was a big thing to our fans. It was a tradition and it was a great venue. "I mean, there’s only two teams who can play in a National Championship, but more teams can play in those kind of championship games. There’s a lot of pride in winning the conference championship." COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF EXPANDING TO 24 TEAMS IN 2027, WITH MORE GAMES COMING TO CAMPUSES ACROSS THE COUNTRY Losing out on conference title games, which is coming, was one of the caveats that committee members seemingly had to agree on in this impending move. Now, even if some years they are meaningless when it comes to CFP rankings, the tradition that comes with the first weekend of December is lost with expanding once again. Saban made a point that playing teams like Florida or Georgia while both ranked within the Top-5 of the country at the time added to the intrigue. But, it was the former Alabama coach that made one of the strongest points of the entire argument, and it centers around how many games college football players will now be asked to play on a yearly basis if they are lucky enough to make a playoff run. COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF EXPANDING AGAIN, BUT THE MONEY BEHIND IT IS NOT WHAT SOME WOULD CALL A 'WIN' "We’re gonna give that up to have an extra game where the 24th team is going to play the ninth best team," Nick Saban continued. "If we just put the right 12 teams in and didn’t go through all the political BS that we went through so we can have a 12-team Playoff, and end up putting a couple of teams in that shouldn’t be in, and some teams that should’ve been in that didn’t get in should have gotten in, that was a good tournament. "Maybe you go to sixteen if you want to include some other people. But, 24 is a lot. It's too many games for college football players to play. We played 15 games three times, and I thought that was too many games for college players to play." Saban has a solid point, especially when those teams who compete in a conference title game then will not play another game for nearly a month. We might not agree with the former Alabama coach on a lot of things, but Saban speaking truth into the downside of expansion is something a lot of fans will rightfully get behind.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee1cb769fbdcb35dec4cc5 Has Prime Time expired? Detailing Deion Sander’s rocky tenure in Boulder te 2026-11-06T18:30:15.727Z Has Prime Time expired? Detailing Deion Sander’s rocky tenure in Boulder TEMPE – Heading into its first conference matchup under coach Deion Sanders on Sept. 23, 2023, Colorado was riding high. Sitting at 3-0 after nonconference play – and following a one-win season that led to the midseason firing of coach Karl Dorrell – Colorado fans had renewed reason for hope and excitement. Sanders, a Pro Football Hall of Fame cornerback, had brought both a swagger and national media attention back to the long dormant program. As Colorado prepared to face Oregon in a Pac-12 matchup, Ducks coach Dan Lanning delivered a prophetic speech to his team that has stuck to Colorado’s identity ever since. “They’re fighting for clicks,” Lanning told his team before blowing out the Buffaloes, 42-6, in Eugene. “We’re fighting for wins.” In Sanders’ tenure, the Buffaloes have certainly earned clicks. Outside of one season, however, the wins have been few and far between. Aside from the 2024 season in which Colorado went 9-4 despite a blowout loss to BYU in the Alamo Bowl, Sanders is 10-22 in his nearly three other seasons in Boulder. He is 2-12 in Big 12 play the past two seasons as the Buffaloes (3-5, 1-4 Big 12) prepare to take on Arizona State (4-4, 2-3) at Mountain America Stadium on Saturday. Has Prime Time ended in Colorado? The lack of wins and diminishing national attention suggest so. As Michael McCarthy of Front Office Sports wrote this past offseason, “In September 2023, ABC drew an eye-popping 10.03 million viewers for Colorado’s blowout loss to Oregon, even topping the 9.98 million for a Notre Dame–Ohio State telecast on NBC Sports that same day. “But the ‘Prime Effect’ on Colorado game viewership is wearing off. Take the program’s recent history on ESPN. During the 2023 season, the five Colorado games televised by ESPN averaged 6.1 million viewers, say sources. The next year, ESPN averaged 3.4 million over four games. During last season’s disaster, it fell to 2 million viewers over seven games. That’s a 67% drop over a three-season span.” Between the 2025 and 2026 season, Colorado also had a change at the athletic director position when Rick George opted to transition to an advisory role. Fernando Lovo took over and noted the importance of alignment between AD and coach. “Every conversation is rooted in, ‘What does coach need to be successful and how do we deliver that to him?’” Lovo told Sports Illustrated. “At the end of the day, it all comes down to trust and alignment. He has to trust me and I have to trust him, and that only happens with time.” The 2026 season lined up to be a crucial test of Sanders’ status. With one of the toughest schedules in the conference ahead, Lovo knew the stakes. “We’re in a critical juncture right now in our enterprise,” Lovo told The Athletic. “We need a successful and healthy football program for us to make sure that we’re continuing to put our best foot forward.” The season got off on the right foot with a win against Georgia Tech, a team that finished 2025 ranked. But Tech’s current 2-6 record and last-place standing in the ACC, coupled with the Buffaloes’ ensuing performance now suggest the win carried little weight. After taking down FCS opponent Weber State, Colorado went on a five-game losing streak, including three blowout losses. It heads to Tempe after a 27-24 home win against Kansas State, which is 1-4 in Big 12 play. Despite the recent performance, there is a positive Sanders spin.  Before Sanders’ tenure, the last coach to finish a full season with a winning record was Mike MacIntyre in 2016 when he went 10-4. Before that was Gary Barnett, who had four winning seasons between 2001 and 2005.  After a 1990s decade that saw the Buffaloes win a national title and finish seven seasons ranked with seven bowl wins, Colorado entered one of the worst periods in program history. From 2006 to 2022, the Buffaloes made three bowl games, won none of them and finished a full season with a winning record once.  Looking for someone to revitalize the program, the school turned to Sanders, who had just wrapped up a three-year stint with Jackson State where the Tigers went 27-6. At his introductory press conference, Sanders was clear in his intentions. “All you want is an opportunity to win, to compete, to dominate, to be amongst the elite, to be amongst the best and darn it, I’m gonna give you that,” Sanders said “We don’t have to do anything. We’re going to outwork them. We’re going to out-recruit them. We’re going to out-scout them. We’re going to out-develop them.” Despite a rebuilding first season, Sanders brought two big names to Boulder: former five-star receiver Travis Hunter and Deion’s son, quarterback Shedeur Sanders. After moving to the Big 12 in 2024, Sanders completely flipped the Buffs’ reputation. Colorado finished 9-4 and Hunter won the Heisman Trophy. The hype had never been higher for the program. That performance earned Sanders a five-year, $54 million contract extension that runs through the 2029 season. Last month, Fox Sports college football analyst Joel Klatt and others suggested the extension was a mistake. “I think every school errs in their negotiation with their head coaches because the ADs panic, because the AD’s job is also tied to the success of that coach,” Klatt told Denver Sports 104.3. “Contracts and extensions and raises are given far too early, they are given far too much guaranteed money in general, and I think this contract falls into that.” Predictably, Sanders still has his supporters such as Hunter, who now plays for the Jacksonville Jaguars. While in high school, Hunter was committed to Florida State before Sanders made a pitch to bring him to the FCS level at Jackson State. “I have too much respect for him,” Hunter told Yahoo Sports. “He came and got me to not go to Florida State and changed my mindset, changed the picture of everything. He really changed my life.” Hunter said he still maintains a good relationship with Sanders. “Every game day he texts me and tells me, ‘Let’s go,'” Hunter said. The support hasn’t helped in the wins department. Last week, Colorado picked up its second conference victory since the start of 2025, taking down Kansas State in overtime. There are mitigating circumstances to consider. Sanders has battled health issues, including bladder cancer, and he went into the 2025 season with an unsettled quarterback situation for the first time in his tenure with the Buffaloes.   But with Colorado off to another poor start, Sanders’ name is starting to pop up on hot seat lists, with every game potentially carrying more meaning than the last. That doesn’t mean ASU will have as easy a time as it did in a 42-17 victory last season. The hype may be at its lowest point since Prime Time began in Boulder, but Sanders said his players won’t roll over. “They’re not saying, ‘Poor little old me, we’re getting our butts kicked,’” Sanders said during his weekly press conference. “No, (they’re saying) ‘Let’s go out there and win. Let’s go out there and do what we’re capable of doing.’  “One day this season, we’re going to put it all together – offensively, defensively, special teams, no penalties.” If Colorado does not, speculation about the Prime Time era will only grow louder. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee1cb669fbdcb35dec4cbc Will Mencl, No. 2 Chandler rally to beat No. 3 Hamilton in Battle for Arizona Avenue te 2026-11-06T18:30:14.467Z Will Mencl, No. 2 Chandler rally to beat No. 3 Hamilton in Battle for Arizona Avenue CHANDLER – Following a late hit penalty by Hamilton in the red zone in the middle of the fourth quarter, Chandler had a first-and-goal. Senior quarterback and Oregon commit Will Mencl pulled the read option and ran it in himself for a 4-yard touchdown, silencing the overflow crowd at Hamilton and giving Chandler its first lead of the game. “It is something I’ve always had as a player,” Mencl said of his running ability. “I’m not afraid. I am a football player. I throw it a little bit more than everybody else, so I’m not afraid to take a big hit.” Mencl’s run proved to be the biggest hit in No. 2 Chandler’s 31-24, Class 6A win against No. 3 Chandler Hamilton on Thursday in the renewal of the one of the best rivalries in Arizona High School football, known as the Battle for Arizona Avenue. With the win, Chandler finished the regular season 9-1 while Hamilton finished 8-2. Hamilton still leads the all-time series 17-12. The teams will find out Saturday morning where they are seeded for the Open Division state playoffs when the bracket is released. Last season, Hamilton beat Chandler in the final regular-season game, but Mencl led the Wolves to a 30-17 Open Division semifinal playoff win in which he ran for 105 yards and three TDs. The Wolves needed his heroics again on Thursday as Hamilton raced to a 14-0 lead. The game opened with a long pass by Hamilton junior quarterback Jax Sculley to wide receiver Christian Riley that set up a short rushing touchdown by Sculley the very next play. Chandler got the ball back and fumbled in its own territory, setting up Hamilton in great field position on which the Huskies capitalized, with Sculley finding Riley for a 2-yard touchdown for a 14-0 lead early in the first quarter. Chandler responded when Mencl found senior wide receiver Maxwell Sprott for a big gain. At the goal line, and after three straight rushing attempts, Chandler punched in a touchdown courtesy of running back David Douglas. The momentum shifted further in Chandler’s favor when defensive back Brivid Laudermilk intercepted Sculley, giving the Wolves the ball back as they tied the game on a passing touchdown in the back corner of the end zone from Mencl to Daniel Martinez.  “Really our play call,” Laudermilk said when asked about the pick. “We have a great defensive coaching staff and so their play calls are what makes us get it done.” Hamilton High quarterback Jax Sculley (8) throws a pass to tight end Grant Zelma (87) against Chandler High at Hamilton’s Jerry Loper Stadium in Chandler, Ariz., on Thursday, Nov. 5, 2026.  (Photo by Destini Jones/Cronkite News)  Facing a big third-and-18 Sculley found Roman Oliver across the middle of the field and he did the rest after the catch, running it into the end zone for a 42-yard TD to put Hamilton back in front, 21-14. Before the half, Chandler faced a third-and-long of its own, but Mencl converted with his legs to keep the drive alive and ultimately set up a field goal from senior kicker Ryan Zima to pull the Wolves within 21-17 at halftime. Out of the half, the defenses settled in with Hamilton recording its only points of the half on a field goal. Late in the third quarter, Chandler faced a fourth-and-2 on its own 36-yard line. The Wolves took a risk and Mencl made it pay off,  breaking free up the middle for a 62-yard touchdown run that tied the game at 24-24 with 1:59 left in the period. “I was really supposed to hit the outside,” Mencl said. “I pulled it, kind of saw something open up in the A-gap, just trying to be a playmaker in a big time moment and it ended up working out.” After the touchdown, Chandler recovered a fumble on the ensuing kickoff, but Hamilton’s defense held strong, as Derrick Leblanc Jr. posted a sack on third down, and Mencl’s pass on fourth-and-long was intercepted by Preston DeGraffenreid. Hamilton’s offense couldn’t generate points off of the turnover and Chandler’s defense didn’t allow a point the rest of the way. “I just think we played with a lot more energy, ” Chandler coach Ty Wisdom said. “It wasn’t necessarily a bunch of different things we did. We tackled better. We got to the ball.” After Mencl’s go-ahead TD, Hamilton punted the ball back to Chandler with more than five minutes left in the game, but the Wolves were able to run out the clock for their second straight win against their rivals.

Between the deluge and the King Tide affecting cities all along the Atlantic Coast of the peninsula, it's been a soggy last couple of days in what they usually call the Sunshine State. When the streets flood in Florida, residents are bound to see some incredibly weird stuff that would make visitors question their sanity. But, for native Floridians, it's just another day. It wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility to see alligators and even fish treating residential roads as their own personal habitat, but a woman in Fort Pierce captured video of something that left even the most seasoned veteran of Florida floods scratching their heads in disbelief. HERO DEPUTY RESCUES WHEELCHAIR-BOUND GRANDFATHER WHO FELL INTO SHARK-INFESTED WATERWAY A shark. Well, maybe, but we'll get to that. Franshara Napoleon was picking up her daughter on Monday afternoon when she noticed "something moving in the water" at a flooded intersection at 25th and Midway Street. GREAT WHITE SHARK MAKES TERRIFYINGLY CLOSE PASS BY FISHERMAN IN KAYAK IN SHOCKING VIDEO "I was on my way to pick my daughter up from school before the storm got worse. I noticed something moving in the water in the flooded street so I began recording and realized it was a shark," Napoleon said. "I was in disbelief." Fort Pierce is a coastal town about two hours north of Miami, so it makes sense with the flooding that a shark would find its way onto shore in some capacity, but looking at a map tells me this poor guy was a long way from home. The intersection of Midway and 25th street is a good three miles from the intracoastal, which could mean our toothy friend here had to do quite a bit of swimming to end up there. Then again, the St. Lucie River is right down the street, and that eventually leads to the intracoastal, so perhaps Mr. Shark took a trip up stream looking for the nearest McDonalds. There is a different theory, though, and that is that the shark in question wasn't a shark at all, but instead was a tarpon. It checks out, since tarpon tend to hang out in brackish waters and it would be way more plausible to find one this far inland. Either way, kudos to Napoleon for having the presence of mind to whip her phone out and record this encounter. We got one hell of a video as a result of it.

ANTONIO BROWN AVOIDS 30-YEAR PRISON SENTENCE FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER BY ACCEPTING 'AN OFFER HE COULDN'T REFUSE' The plea deal allows Brown to avoid any time in prison as well as any criminal conviction, and he could seek an early termination of probation at about the halfway mark of the sentence so long as all terms are met. Initially, Brown was charged with attempted murder after local police said he grabbed an security guard's gun and fired two shots at a man he had been involved in a physical altercation with just moments earlier. OHIO DOG PARK SHOOTING OVER TRUMP ARGUMENT COULD END WITH TWO SELF-DEFENSE CLAIMS, OR NONE: LEGAL EXPERT Brown, on the other hand, claimed self-defense, saying that he was defending himself from someone trying to rob him of his jewelry.

His exit from the Steel City marked a downturn both professionally and personally, and his NFL career ended unceremoniously in Tampa, where he infamously exited the playing field in the middle of a game against the New York Jets while removing his pads and jersey.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee15b269fbdcb35dec4849 Bill Paxton's son takes on Western role late father never got to play: 'I could literally hear my dad' te 2026-11-06T18:00:18.200Z Bill Paxton's son takes on Western role late father never got to play: 'I could literally hear my dad' Bill Paxton's son, James Paxton, is carrying on his late father's legacy by taking on a Western role that the "Twister" star was originally set to play more than 30 years ago. In 1991, Bill was cast alongside Malcolm McDowell in the Western comedy drama "Last Train to Fortune," but the project stalled following original director Lindsay Anderson’s death in 1994. "Last Train to Fortune" spent decades trapped in development but efforts to revive the movie were gaining momentum again in 2017 when Bill unexpectedly died, leaving the role that would ultimately be played by James. During a recent interview with Fox News Digital, James, 32, opened up about how the project became a deeply personal way to reconnect with Bill, who passed away in February 2017 following heart surgery. 'DEADPOOL' STAR ROB DELANEY REVEALS HOW LOSING 2-YEAR-OLD SON CHANGED HIS APPROACH TO FAME "When you lose somebody, such a close loved one, you often look for ways to still connect to them," James said. "And that can take all manner of forms and paths and shapes," he continued. "For me, I recognized immediately that this was the kind of project that I could literally hear my dad in my head the whole time. You know, if I needed any guidance or any motivation, or I had any questions, I knew that he would kind of — he would be right there with me, and he'd be cheering me on for it." SYLVESTER STALLONE SCOFFS AT NEPOTISM CRITICS OVER DAUGHTER'S 'TULSA KING' ROLE: 'YOU IDIOT' "So I saw it as a way to — almost like a conduit to commune with him, wherever he is and may be," James added. "And there's something beautiful about following in those footsteps." James recalled that Bill had his own way of putting his son’s decision to follow him into acting in perspective. WATCH: BILL PAXTON'S SON SAYS HE COULD 'LITERALLY HEAR' LATE DAD WHILE TAKING ON HIS WESTERN ROLE "Dad had this metaphor about if this was 100 years ago, and we were a family of shoemakers or cobblers, my father before me was a shoemaker and his father before him, you'd probably go into the family business and become, hopefully, a good shoemaker," James said. "So I've always held that close." Before Bill's death, he had been working with McDowell and producer Brad Wyman on the "Last Train to Fortune's" revival with Adam Rifkin as director, but financing repeatedly prevented the project from moving forward. After Bill's death, Rifkin, Wyman and McDowell eventually approached James, who previously said that he hadn't even known about the film while his father was alive. According to Rifkin, the movie was finally able to secure financing once James signed on. Bringing the project to fruition also had personal significance for Adam, whose late mother, Michele Rifkin, penned the original script for a PBS screenwriting competition in 1986. LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS "It was always her son Adam's dream to bring the film to life," James said. James recalled that Michele had been unable to visit the set as she was bedridden in the hospital during the movie's production. However, the late screenwriter had the opportunity to see James and McDowell in costume when the duo FaceTimed her during filming. "She told us that when she saw us in costume it was like we had walked right out of her imagination up off the page and into the real world," he remembered. "And that was so touching, and it immediately made me think about my dad in that moment." "Michele passed away not long after that, and she got to see the finished film before it was released privately, which was amazing, but it made me think all the more about my dad," James said. "Because I know that he … would've wanted us to make this even if he was still around, if they had never got off the ground. He would have been like, ‘James, here, this is your role,’ and so that kind of really made me think of him in that moment in particular." SCOTT EASTWOOD CREDITS HIS FAMOUS FATHER'S WORK ETHIC FOR MAKING HIM AWARE OF 'BULLS---' IN THE FILM INDUSTRY Although James was stepping into a role once intended for his father, he said he knew Bill would have wanted him to find his own approach to the character. "It was totally important for me to create my own version just because I know what Dad would tell me," he said. "And it's tough for me because he was my best friend, so all I wanna do is talk about him and celebrate him, but he goes, 'You're your own actor. You've been studying this. You're a professional.'" PUT YOUR ENTERTAINMENT KNOWLEDGE TO THE TEST AND SEE HOW YOU SCORE "I've done a lot of work actually in the past years that he's been gone," James continued. "But I know that he always wanted me to make it my own, and he would be like, 'Don't hitch up on my wagon too much, you'll find it in yourself.' But he would just give me these great acting pieces of advice and wisdom. So I knew that he wouldn't want me to focus on that. He'd say, 'Focus on, it's the character's moment to live, it's Jedediah Dooley's moment to come to life.' So it's not James up there, it's not Bill up there, it's the character." While Bill encouraged his son to forge his own path as an actor, James recalled that his father was equally determined for his children to develop discipline in other areas of their lives. Along with James, Bill shared daughter Lydia with his wife, Louise Newbury. "He didn't love it when my sister and I would sleep in too late," James remembered. "He was a bit of a drill sergeant when it came to just getting up and doing something. So he would come in, and I became almost like — it was Pavlovian. As a kid, I became conditioned to hear his footsteps coming down the hall. And if I wasn't sitting up and out of my bed by the time he came in the room, he'd rip the sheets off of me, and he'd go, 'Rise and shine, you're burning daylight out here.'" "And he just put up the blinds, and it would just flood the room with blinding light and I would freak out a bit," James continued. "But he'd get me going, and so I — even in my half-asleep state — I could jolt awake when I'd hear him coming. Even on the weekends, if he was home, he'd be like, ‘Come on man, get up and do something.’ He wasn't controlling about what that was, but it was about motivating me not to just stay in bed." James recalled how Bill also wanted his son to have real-life experiences and not define himself solely through acting. WATCH: BILL PAXTON'S SON RECALLS 'DRILL SERGEANT' DAD RIPPING SHEETS OFF HIM FOR SLEEPING IN "I used to have a ton of all kinds of odd jobs," James recalled. "I worked in tons of restaurants. I apprenticed as a tile maker. I worked for UPS. I had a lot of really cool experiences. I scooped ice cream, that was my first job. And those were largely thanks to dad encouraging me to do that." Though James said Bill supported his acting ambitions, he recalled that his father tried to prepare him for the realities of working in Hollywood. "I would say he was probably more concerned with warning me about all of the pitfalls and the hardships that can fall," James said. "Even somebody as successful as he was in his career, he ran the gamut of every Hollywood experience and every disappointment. "And he always talked about it's the time between jobs where you really can suffer," he continued. "'The death of a thousand paper cuts.' he would call it. You have to find something that can buoy you between jobs, and you don't put your self-worth in it." "If anything, he was like, ‘Man if you want to do anything else like, even just as much as this, do that instead,’" James recalled. "He was like, ‘This is a hard thing’ and so if anything, he kind of gave me this extra chip on my shoulder because I was like, 'Well, I'm gonna go, and I'm going to book something and show him.'" James made his career breakthrough in the USA Network crime thriller drama "Eyewitness," which premiered in October 2016. While speaking with Fox News Digital, James recalled Bill's reaction when he landed the leading role of Lukas Waldenbeck in the series. "He almost couldn't believe it, but there was this huge sense of relief," James said. "And he called it a ‘real ticket to ride,' as in, it was his way of saying, 'This is a real opportunity. Now you go and show them and stuff. You've done the work to get here.'" "So that was really cool," he continued. "He saw that right before he passed, which was amazing." Since starring in "Eyewitness," James has steadily built his acting career with appearances in projects including "Training Day," "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.," "Tacoma FD" and "The Cleaner." In 2024, he made a cameo in "Twisters," the standalone sequel to his father’s 1996 blockbuster "Twister." "I still get the whole 'it's Bill Paxton's son' thing, but I have over 45 acting credits," James told Fox News Digital. "But I laugh it off. As Dad would say, man it's all just — it's a great experience, and you're on the path." In "Last Train to Fortune," McDowell's character Cecil Peachtree misses the last train to his new teaching job in the frontier town of Fortune and enlists the help of James' Jedidiah Booley to get him there safely, with the mismatched pair forming an unlikely bond along the way. GET ENTERTAINMENT SCOOP DELIVERED RIGHT TO YOUR EMAIL BY CLICKING HERE In addition to their long-held plans to co-star in the movie, McDowell and Bill were close friends and neighbors in Ojai, California. James told Fox News Digital that McDowell recently reminded him of a story that illustrated how the "Clockwork Orange" star's friendship with his father extended far beyond Hollywood. "I grew up in the Ojai Valley, and we've obviously been plagued by a lot of wildfires over the years," he said. "And it was a pretty bad one when I was quite young. I can't recall exactly, it was early 2000s. Malcolm had a property that was kind of up in the hills, backing up against a lot of wildlife, ground, and forest. And the fire was coming up on his property, and he said that he saw Dad show up in full volunteer fireman regalia, like the full suit, ready to fight the fire with Malcolm. "And there's a great photo that Kelly, Malcolm's wife, sent to me of the two of them," he continued. "We'll have to track it down because it's great. It's them, you know, they took a quick picture as they were fighting the fire and protecting the Ojai Valley. So I loved the thought of them working together on something outside of film, in real life." WATCH: BILL PAXTON WARNED SON ABOUT HOLLYWOOD'S 'DEATH OF A THOUSAND PAPER CUTS' When asked what he believed would make his father most proud of the person he has become, James pointed to his determination to keep going despite the difficult moments he has faced. "I think he'd be most proud that I have never given up," James said. "I think the perseverance. I think that if our past loved ones can see us at times, they can see our energy or something, they can see us from another place while we're alive, they'd see that there's often like moments of true despair." "I mean, I would be lying if I said I didn't come close to giving up on a lot of things many times and being like, 'What's the point to keep it going?', but then I realize that's just a wallowing pity party," he continued. "You've got to recognize the blessings and the privilege and keep it going. He's like, ‘I set this up for you.' And so I just want him to know that I'm always gonna honor what he gave me."

Gavin Newsom announced his plans for clemency for hundreds of death row inmates in the Golden State, current and former prosecutors from across the state issued shocked responses to his push for blanket commutations. Among those slated to have their frozen death penalties commuted to life in prison without the possibility of parole is Isauro Aguirre, the Palmdale man convicted in 2017 of torturing and murdering his girlfriend's 8-year-old son, Gabriel Fernandez, who died in 2013. "It’s horrible," Jonathan Hatami, the deputy Los Angeles district attorney who prosecuted the case, told Fox News Digital. 'BABY KILLERS, COP KILLERS' HAVE AN ALLY IN NEWSOM, MURDERED GIRL'S FATHER SAYS AMID DEATH ROW CONTROVERSY Hatami told Fox News Digital that the governor's decision came without any discussions with Gabriel's family. On X, he reposted his heart-wrenching closing argument from before Aguirre's sentencing. "Death was likely a merciful end to Gabriel’s pain — and that only illuminates the torture and abuse that he really suffered," Hatami said at the time. "When he needed it most, no one was there to hold Gabriel, to love him, to caress him, and to just tell him ‘everything will be alright.’" CALIFORNIA SUED OVER POLICY THAT COULD FREE SERIAL KILLERS AS LACI PETERSON'S FRIEND SOUNDS ALARM Aguirre tortured the child for more than seven months before beating him so severely he died with a fractured skull and broken ribs. The abuse included shooting him with a BB gun, burning his genitals and forcing him to eat cat feces. Prosecutors alleged that Aguirre hated the second grader because he was gay. Gabriel's mother was also sentenced to prison. "The defendant is not a victim," Hatami said in his closing argument. Aguirre, he said, was "pure evil" and a "coward." NEW YORK BILLS COULD ABOLISH LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE FOR SERIAL KILLERS AND COP KILLERS, CRITICS WARN Among the prisoners who would benefit from Newsom's decision are the state's worst — those who have tortured their victims, like Aguirre, murdered children, gunned down police and even serial killers. The "Scorecard Killer" Randy Kraft killed 16 men between 1972 and 1983. The "Trailside Killer" David Carpenter killed seven people on hiking trails between 1980 and 1981. "Yosemite Killer" Cary Stayner murdered a mother, her daughter, the girl's friend and another woman in 1999. Charles Ng was sentenced to death for his role in the abduction and torture, rape and murder of 11 people between 1984 and 1985, including two infants. "I am not aware of any victims’ family members receiving notice of these commutations from the Governor," San Bernardino County District Attorney Jason Anderson said in his own statement, in which he called Newsom's move "the wrong decision." Newsom, however, wrote in an open letter to state residents that the state "cannot morally kill" them. "I take this action because I firmly believe that state-sanctioned killing is incompatible with California's values, undermines the foundations of our legal system, and diminishes each of us," he wrote — later acknowledging that those who would benefit from his move "caused indescribable suffering to victims, their families, communities, and our state as a whole." Current Los Angeles District Attorney Nathan Hochman, along with counterparts in Orange, Sacramento and other counties, have issued statements noting that they will continue to consider the death penalty on future eligible cases following Newsom's surprise announcement Thursday, noting that his action does not change state law or abolish capital punishment. FOLLOW THE FOX TRUE CRIME TEAM ON X "Every death sentence results from years of legal proceedings, involving juries, judges, and multiple layers of mandatory appellate review," Sacramento District Attorney Thien Ho noted in a statement. "A blanket commutation of all death sentences disregards the individualized facts and circumstances of each case, the careful judicial process that led to those lawful sentences, and the voices of victims who have waited decades for justice." While California hasn't executed a condemned inmate in 20 years, death row inmates have largely been excluded from progressive criminal justice reforms made to lighten sentences on other offenders. CHARLES MANSON FOLLOWER TIED TO SHARON TATE MURDERS GETS RECOMMENDED FOR PAROLE AFTER 55 YEARS IN PRISON "Gov.

During pregame warmups before the Ravens’ 33-10 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, Fagnano spotted his wife on the sideline. The couple shared a hug and a kiss before Lydia offered her husband some encouragement before the first start of his career. "Love you! Have fun!" Lydia said.

Earlier in the week, Fagnano told reporters that Lydia had been instrumental in his preparation for game day. "My wife, I mean, we go through walkthroughs in the living room," Fagnano told reporters on Tuesday. "She's reading plays and stuff. She probably knows the playbook just as well as us at this point. So, I mean, I've always been doing stuff to prepare. Like I said, it's just a little bit more physical work out in the field now."

DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW! "Yeah, she's working on some play calls. We're getting her signals down," Fagnano said with a smile. The undrafted rookie was dealt a tough hand in his first career start. He was playing through an ankle injury and faced a Jaguars defense that allowed the second-fewest points per game in the NFL (15.1), all while playing in pouring rain. On top of that, the 25-year-old played on a Thursday, meaning he had not taken any practice reps that week. Entering Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills, Fagnano had been the No. 3 quarterback behind Lamar Jackson and Tyler "Snoop" Huntley. As a result, many of his first reps with the starting offense came during Sunday's and Thursday's games. Fagnano completed 10 of his 18 passes for 60 yards with two interceptions. Unfortunately for him, barring an injury to Jacoby Brissett, whom the Ravens are reportedly acquiring this weekend, this may have been his only start of the season.

The incident unfolded due to an Oct. 28 Yik Yak post as the group hosted a campus display, with screenshots appearing to show a user on the anonymous social media platform asking, "How many dining dollars to Kirk the anti abortion table in Armstrong," an apparent reference to the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. "We were in the Armstrong Student Center inside," Grace Kimzey, Ohio Regional Coordinator for Students for Life of America, told Fox News Digital in an interview Friday. ‘FEMINISTS LIED’ TOUR AIMS TO CHALLENGE ABORTION, FEMINISM NARRATIVES ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES "We had our display, we were towards the end of our tabling in our tour when a student saw a post online at Yik Yak," Kimzey said. "He was just keeping tabs on what's being talked about on social media, about our table and about our display. So we saw that, and then I immediately called the Miami Police Department just to keep our students safe." A press release from Students for Life of America, shared exclusively with Fox News Digital, said that a 19-year-old Miami University student was arrested on Nov. 2, on a felony charge and multiple misdemeanor charges after allegedly posting the message on Yik Yak appearing to encourage violence against Students for Life of America members staffing the campus pro-life display. CHARLIE KIRK ASSASSINATION ALLEGEDLY MOCKED ON CAMPUSES ACROSS COUNTRY WITH CELEBRATIONS, LOOK-ALIKE CONTESTS According to Students for Life, the post was made in Yik Yak's "Miami Ohio" group, which is visible to the app's users near the university. The group said that the student was arrested and charged with one felony of making a terroristic threat and various misdemeanors, including inducing panic, aggravated menacing, and telecommunications harassment. The incident was also referred to the FBI. Kristan Hawkins, president of Students for Life of America, told Fox News Digital in a statement that the climate for free speech has significantly deteriorated in recent years. "I've been on campuses for the past three weeks alongside Turning Point USA on my fall tour, and I'm there, you know, under a TPUSA tent. Cameras are on me. There are signs saying we are filming in this area, yet there will be students who will stand beside me and call me Mrs. Kirk, and they'll use the verb ‘Kirked’ over and over again," Hawkins said. GEORGETOWN STUDENTS PLAN CHARLIE KIRK 'LOOKALIKE CONTEST' ON ANNIVERSARY OF HIS ASSASSINATION "I've asked students just to their faces when they will say something about Charlie," Hawkins continued. "They'll laugh, I'll say, ‘Do you think it was funny what happened to my friend, that he was assassinated, a husband and a father who was a good man by all accounts? You think this was funny?’ And they'll just continue to laugh." She also recounted another recent incident with a student that gave her pause. "I asked one student recently, ‘Do you think it's moral to shoot me? If you disagree with me and what I do, do you think it's moral to shoot me?’ And the young man looked right at me and said, ‘Yes,’" Hawkins said. "I mean, this is a different level. And I think the older generations, even my generation, the elder millennials, if you will, when we were having dialogue on campuses, it didn't reach this level." UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT SOUNDS ALARM AS NEARLY HALF OF STUDENTS JUSTIFY VIOLENCE TO STOP 'HATE SPEECH' A spokesperson from Miami University told Fox News Digital in a statement that, "Due to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), the university cannot confirm if a student is being disciplined or is currently in the disciplinary process." "Every Miami student is afforded their due process rights through our Code of Student Conduct," the spokesperson continued. "The university handles any reports of possible policy violations by students or violations of law through the Office of Community Standards and through campus and local law enforcement, with potential sanctions that vary based on the alleged violation and a student’s previous conduct history." The spokesperson referred to the university’s website for more information about freedom of speech and expression at Miami University.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee135a69fbdcb35dec479f Dems pivot from ‘affordability’ pitch to DHS probe threats after midterm wins te 2026-11-06T17:50:18.444Z Dems pivot from ‘affordability’ pitch to DHS probe threats after midterm wins Several prominent Democrats who ran on an "affordability" message were largely silent when pressed by Fox News Digital on their sudden pivot to foreshadowing investigations into the Trump administration, including in many cases its immigration enforcement efforts. Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., who is poised to lead the House Oversight Committee, responded to Democrats' win Tuesday with a statement: "Lawyer Up", despite having pledged to prioritize household costs alongside government accountability. Garcia told CNN before the election that "Democratic priorities" would be lowering the cost of "gas, groceries, the mortgage, the rent," alongside combating government corruption. PROGRESSIVES FUME AT HAKEEM JEFFRIES FOR SAYING DEMOCRATS WON'T 'GET EVEN' WITH TRUMP In response to a request for comment, a representative for Garcia shared a tweet he posted Wednesday, after his Tuesday "lawyer up" warning, that referenced affordability: "People can’t afford gas, groceries, and rent because Donald Trump and his family are ripping off the American people and enriching themselves. Taking on corruption is about making life more affordable for working families," Garcia said in the tweet. Before the election, "Squad" Rep. Delia Ramirez, D-Ill., wrote in a PBS-Chicago voters guide that there is "no question that the rising cost of living is the number one issue" for a "working people’s agenda." After the election, however, her tone appeared to change: "Noem, Markwayne, Miller, Homan, Bovino, what’s up? Clear your schedule," Ramirez said. Several respondents pushed back, including one of her stated targets, former Border Patrol Cmdr. Gregory Bovino. "Honey, slow your totalitarian roll," Bovino responded on X. "Citizens don’t answer to communists in this country as much as you seem to believe that." Bovino went on to suggest Ramirez instead relax with a bottle of whiskey from a brand the former immigration official launched upon retirement. Other respondents also pointed out that Ramirez’ post-election missive didn’t mention her affordability priority: SCHUMER PREACHES AFFORDABILITY IN DEM MIDTERM PITCH WHILE SABOTAGING GOP FIXES FOR SOARING COSTS "Notice nothing about how she is going to help her constituents but ‘get Trump’," said one. "So, you guys never really gave a s--- about affordability," added former Energy Department staffer Matt van Swol. Rep. Analilia Mejia, D-N.J., who now represents the longtime Republican-held seat of former Rep. Rodney Frelinghuysen, made both affordability and immigration policy part of her campaign message. " We’re going to toss out subpoenas like Mardi Gras beads," Mejia’s first X post Wednesday read. Rep. Tony Wied, R-Wis., responded it showed Democrats "have no plans to make life better for you," eliciting a response from Mejia in which she dubbed him "Mr. Weird" and only then mentioned an "economy that works for" Americans. In April, Rep. Yassamin Ansari, D-Ariz., released a lengthy statement announcing a "New Affordability Agenda" and highlighting her role on the Congressional Progressive Caucus’ "Lowering Costs Task Force." On Election Night, Ansari posted: "Thank you Mr. President. Our thank-you will come in January with subpoenas." An ensuing tweet called for the impeachment of War Secretary Pete Hegseth. On Wednesday, Ansari ultimately posted a policy-related pledge to curtail AI. Sen. Edward Markey, D-Mass., stated during the midterms that his priorities were "groceries, gas prices energy costs" and the like. However, his post-election missive remarking on how many "new forests" will need planting for "all of the subpoenas we’ll be printing," instead signaled a priority to investigate tech executives like Elon Musk. "Affordability," quipped former Virginia Del. Nick Freitas, R-Culpeper, in a reply. Ramirez, Mejia, Markey and Ansari did not respond to requests for comment on their apparent pivots. Garcia’s representative responded by providing his subsequent post on affordability. Both Garcia and Ramirez had previously identified government accountability and immigration oversight, respectively, as priorities, but their immediate post-election statements emphasized investigations rather than the affordability measures they had highlighted on the campaign trail. DHS appeared to take the newfound priority in stride in comments to Fox News Digital. "It is unfortunate that Democrats are more interested in political shenanigans than in governing," said DHS’ top attorney James Percival. "Rest assured, however, that we are well prepared to deal with this nonsense so Secretary Mullin can continue focusing on protecting the homeland," the counsel said. A Justice Department spokesperson echoed Percival, saying the agency is "not afraid of threats from Democrats" and assured its staff has followed the law. "It is no surprise that rather than focus on bringing down costs for Americans, Democrats in Congress are picking up where their weaponization efforts left off when they were last in power," the spokesperson said. Meanwhile, the White House told Fox News Digital that Trump remains willing to work with Democrats on issues they can collaborate on to help "hardworking Americans." "If Democrats choose to pursue sham investigations and radical-left policies, they are choosing to work against the American people," spokeswoman Lauren Bis said. Immigration hawks signaled preparations for what Democrats foreshadowed. The Mass Deportation Coalition, whose leaders have been critical of Biden-era open-border policies and have asserted that the Trump administration has not done enough on the issue in some areas, told Fox News Digital they are prepared to defend officials amid the onslaught. "We know what’s coming," said Mass Deportation Coalition leader Mike Howell. "A lot of people are going to be cashing-out and charging patriots expensive legal fees to the most vulnerable." "We have been through this before and are ready to sacrifice for the patriots who are targeted by weaponized harassment." Former House Oversight Committee counsel and immigration judge Andrew Arthur said Congress has the prerogative to investigate DHS’ work but added that it may not be what Americans are looking for as a priority. Citing Ramirez’ mention of Border Czar Tom Homan, Arthur noted that the onetime Obama official long held "positive" ratings from Republicans and Democrats. "He was commonly viewed as the guy who came in and cleaned things up after Noem left, got things a little bit better. So that's probably not going to be a terribly popular thing," he said. "This isn't really affordability but anything that shows waste in government technically goes to affordability and it all depends on how willing the media is to accept that talking point," said Arthur, now at the Center for Immigration Studies. Arthur said DHS can largely proceed as usual with its previously established funding while any investigations take place, adding that much of what Mullin and Trump have done already falls under established law that Congress itself passed. Referencing the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, Arthur said that, short of "amending the law itself – which they can’t do if [Trump] vetoes it" Democrats can probe and try to paint the agency in a "bad light" over ICE-involved shootings and similar incidents, but that their larger agenda would be buttressed by the INA. SIGN UP TO GET THE POLITICS NEWSLETTER A 2026 whitepaper by Federal Reserve Bank researchers found elevated "unauthorized" immigration contributed to rising housing costs between 2021 and 2024, estimating that the influx increased home prices by 6.6% and rents by 4.3% in the average metropolitan area. The researchers attributed the increases to additional housing demand that was not matched by sufficient new construction, lending indirect empirical support to arguments that illegal immigration can have adverse effects on key affordability metrics.

The Major League Wrestling (MLW) star has been on a tear in the company this year. He stepped up when he was called upon to be one-half of the tag team champions with Donovan Dijak and he scored a pinfall on world heavyweight champion Killer Kross in a tag team match. Their heated feud will culminate in a Last Man Standing match at Saturday Night SuperFight this weekend in Chicago with the MLW World Heavyweight Championship on the line. Bishop expressed confidence he will be able to keep Kross down for the 10 seconds he needs to become the new champion. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK PRO WRESTLING COVERAGE "I'm pretty confident," he told OutKick Dropkick in a recent interview. "You're right, I have been on a tear. I beat Kross already, so, I mean, putting him down for 10 seconds, I already put him down for three, and then honestly, he was laying down for probably an extra five minutes, just holding his ribs, crying in pain. Screaming for Scarlett (Bordeaux). They cut it from the stream, they cut it actually from the show, they cut it, he was laying down for so long, they actually brought out medical staff to stretch him out. "So, I mean, I just think it's 1, it's Exit 187 through a table again, same as the last time and Kross ain't getting up, and I'm leaving with the MLW Heavyweight Championship." Bishop and Kross met earlier this year for the title. Kross brutalized Bishop as he stripped the ring and choked out his opponent to keep the belt. But he vowed that this time, things will be different. MLW'S COURT BAUER TOUTS 'HUGE YEAR' FOR COMPANY AMID MEDIA DEALS, SPLASH MOVES "I will be the last man standing. There's nothing he can do to keep me down," Bishop said. "Last time, he hit me with a low blow, threw me off guard, then suplexed me through a bunch of tables and chairs. And that was horrible, but I got up and I was crawling around after, and then he choked me unconscious. I just can't let him choke me out, that's it. You just can't choke me out, but you're not gonna be able to, because I'm gonna put you through a table first." As Bishop continues to get more opportunities in MLW, his popularity has risen within the pro wrestling world itself. Bishop, for some, represents the next generation of tall heavyweights who are likened to the earlier days of pro wrestling when big men ruled the ring. Bishop told OutKick Dropkick he isn’t even close to his prime level just yet. "I'm not even close to getting started in how I feel, honestly. I feel like I haven't even began to even hit my prime," he said. "I'm not even 30 yet. I think I have so much left in the tank, and I think I have so much more good tricks up my sleeve and things I can't wait to show going at the end of 2026 and into 2027, and just continue this momentum. "And yes, I have gotten a lot of momentum this year, and it is great to see me start to get more of that internet, I guess, respect or whatever that internet community kind of whatever, because I've never really played to or cared about that kind of stuff as much. So, it's nice to kind of see that, and then I'll just continue to build upon that and just keep the snowball rolling, and just continue to grow it and just keep this momentum going past 2027, past 2028, past 2029, just continue to keep going. Saturday, once I become the MLW champion is gonna be a good way to end 2026." Kross became the MLW world heavyweight champion at Battle Riot VIII in February, eliminating Matt Riddle last. He’s held the title for more than 250 days since then and has vanquished everyone who has tried to take that gold off of his waist. It’s not going to be easy for Bishop to keep someone like Kross down, but if anyone can do it, he has proven already that he can. Saturday Night SuperFight will take place at Cicero Stadium and can be seen on Veeps at 8 p.m. ET.

Davide Tamburella was fired from La Costa restaurant in Brisbane in May after management raised several workplace concerns, including his refusal to prepare ham-and-pineapple pizzas for customers, according to a ruling from Australia's Fair Work Commission. Tamburella acknowledged it was the third time in four years he had refused a direction to put pineapple on pizza, according to reports. CAN YOU BRING A BIRTHDAY CAKE TO A RESTAURANT? VIRAL PIZZERIA DISPUTE REVEALS THE RULES The latest dispute reportedly involved a customer who had requested ham-and-pineapple pizzas. Tamburella, however, stood his ground. As an Italian, putting pineapple on pizza was an "insult to his culture," Tamburella told the commission, according to the ruling. But La Costa owner Elliot Ingram said on social media that there were a "multitude of different factors" that went into the decision to fire Tamburella. AMERICA'S BEST-TASTING PIZZA CHAIN IS AN OLD-SCHOOL FAVORITE, SURVEY FINDS "There's more to this story than just pizza toppings," Ingram told 7 News in Australia. Ingram said he raised concerns about Tamburella's foul language, communication style and "escalation of frustration in the workplace." "Look, I'm more of a pepperoni guy myself, to be honest," Ingram said, pointing out that pineapple on pizza is "very common" in Australia. "At the end of the day, we're not in Italy. We're in Australia," he said. INTERNET PILES ON ANGRY DOMINO'S CUSTOMERS DEMANDING REFUND AFTER EATING ENTIRE MEAL The dispute quickly spilled onto social media, where commenters debated whether culinary tradition should trump a customer's order. "What a hill to die on," one person wrote on Reddit. "Your work serves the item on the menu. You either agree with it and work there or don't agree and don't," another commenter argued.

Tamburella challenged his dismissal before the Fair Work Commission, but his application was rejected because it was filed outside the required 21-day period. The commission therefore did not rule on whether the dismissal itself was justified.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee0ea769fbdcb35dec4660 College football fans face $2,985 hotel nights, $800 tickets and mortgage decisions for Saturday's CFP slate te 2026-11-06T17:30:15.187Z College football fans face $2,985 hotel nights, $800 tickets and mortgage decisions for Saturday's CFP slate The biggest weekend of the college football season has led to fans having to make some interesting financial decisions across the country ahead of what is shaping up to be a wild Saturday. The question is whether you are prepared to spend thousands of dollars that could go towards a down payment on a new vehicle, for a hotel room around college towns that will keep you close to the action, or hundreds on a ticket just to get inside a stadium. But, let's be honest, some of these games are just too hard to turn down if given the opportunity to attend. From South Bend to Baton Rouge, all the way to Knoxville or Oxford, and out to Salt Lake City, fans will invade these towns by the truckload to experience one of the biggest weekends in recent memory with so much on the line. For the hardcore fans, they,ve had a plan over at least the past year. But, for those scratching an itch of FOMO, it's going to cost you this weekend in college towns across America. And, Notre Dame is the best place to start, where you will need to make a decision on whether paying the mortgage is more important than attending the most nostalgic game of the weekend. No, I'm not talking about a luxurious night inside a 5-star resort within miles of Notre Dame's campus. If you were hellbent on staying near the 'Golden Dome', the LaQuinta Inn 'Suites' had you covered for the low-low price of $2,985 per night over Friday and Saturday. Have you lost your mind? Look, I get wanting to be close to the action, but the price surging is starting to remind me of the Taylor Swift 'Eras Tour'. If you needed a little relief, staying 3.2 miles away from campus in Mishawaka will knock at least $1,500 off your nightly bill, with the fan-favorite 'Country Inn and Suites' averaging $1,185 per night. Don't worry, though, the continental breakfast will assuredly make it worth the stay. You can't beat powdered eggs and oatmeal to go with that morning coffee. Here's a tip: go stay in Chicago or Kalamazoo and pay $230 a night, then make the drive to South Bend for kickoff. CFP RANKINGS: NOTRE DAME FACES SUDDEN DEATH, SEC FEELING GOOD, AND BIG TEN CLOSE TO HITTING THE PANIC BUTTON Speaking of the actual game, the No. 11 Notre Dame versus No. 1 Miami classic showdown will have fans paying anywhere between $700 to $10,000 just to witness this very important game with massive CFP implications. Godspeed to those who are trying to hide expenses with their significant other until the next credit card statement hits your inbox. If the local Super-8 motel is charging $700 per night, you know it's a college football weekend filled with high stakes. As No. 10 Ole Miss prepares to host No. 2 Georgia on Saturday night in Oxford, those hoping to have a place to lay their head following the important SEC showdown within the town have already spent thousands. Look, I'm a points guy when it comes to hotels I reserve before a travel weekend, but paying $1,384 per night to stay at the 'Townplace Suites' might cause some friction to significant others who have access to the joint-checking account. Just stay 25 miles or so outside of town and enjoy a 'Home2Suites' in Batesville, Mississippi for $500 per night, which will save you from a mental breakdown once that payment comes due next month. LANE KIFFIN FUMES OVER ALABAMA KICKOFF TIME, ACCUSES SEC OF NOT WANTING LSU TO WIN As for actually attending the Rebels vs. Dawgs game, $250 per ticket is a steal when you think about the magnitude of this one. Over in Knoxville, Tennessee, those waiting until the last minute were in luck. The highly-anticipated rivalry game that will see No. 6 Kentucky entering a 'Dark Mode' version of Neyland Stadium on Saturday night to face No. 13 Tennessee. Luckily for those looking for a place to stay, the comfortable 'Hilton Garden Inn' just eight miles from campus will only cost you $320 a night, and that glorious breakfast is included. But, getting into the actual game with CFP ramifications for both teams will cost fans anywhere from $353 to $940 to experience this environment that will feel more like a Halloween night in Knoxville. My advice? If you can afford it, go enjoy the spooky night with 100,000 fans wearing their favorite black Tennessee decor, along with a few thousand Kentucky fans decked out in their best blue. Luckily for LSU and Alabama fans making the trek to Tiger Stadium for the Saturday afternoon SEC showdown, the afternoon kickoff time that everyone seems to be complaining about will actually pay-off for those looking for a reasonable nightly rate. From anywhere between $300 to $500 per night, you can stay within six miles of LSU's campus. And, you can get into this game for around $240, which is a steal for this rivalry game that will be played for the last time on an annual basis this weekend. As for the 'Holy War' that will see No. 9 BYU face No. 3 Utah in what is the second-most intriguing game of the weekend, it will cost more to get into the actual Big 12 showdown than what it could take to stay the night. A $381 'get in' price will be well-worth the cost of admission for this one, even if ESPN picked the wrong kickoff time, with a 10 a.m. local time start. If you are attending the No. 7 Texas vs. No. 18 Missouri matchup in Columbia, the $500 per night accommodations will only have you paying out extraordinary prices on Friday night, thanks to the wonderful 11 a.m. kickoff time. But, it will cost you anywhere between $150 to $597 to get into this sneaky-good SEC showdown that will see Arch Manning try to keep the Longhorns rolling after the win over Ole Miss last week, while Austin Simmons can keep the Tigers within striking distance of the College Football Playoff. Alright, if you've been following my advice this season on travel expenses, you’re already ahead of those that don't. Sure, I have a weird fascination with ticket prices and hotel accommodations. But, I hope you have used my quirky investigative mind to your advantage and you enjoy this monster slate of college football without breaking the bank. Let's have ourselves a weekend, as we inch closer to conference championship games that will bring this regular season to an end.

President Donald Trump has repeatedly downplayed Russia's role in the conflict — as recently as last month, saying that he did not believe they are helping Iran "at all." IRAN TAPS FINANCIAL LIFELINE, RUSSIAN ARMS AS TRUMP ESCALATES 'CRUSHING' ECONOMIC WARFARE Russian production records show components were allocated for 90 APU-L twin-rail launchers under a contract identified as "K-10," with shipments within the Russian production chain scheduled from late 2024 through December 2025. Other internal Russian documents obtained by Dallas Analytics explicitly identify "K-10" as Iran. An October 2022 supply request for equipment for a Yak-130 aircraft lists the consignee as "'K10' Iran" and was countersigned by the acting head of the Russian Defense Ministry's 704th Military Representation. The K-10 designation can also be traced to Russian military hardware that ultimately reached Iran. An internal Russian production schedule listed six Yak-130 aircraft for a consignee identified as K-10. Iranian state media later showed the aircraft entering service in September 2023, and Dallas Analytics said the tail number of one Iranian Yak-130 matched the number listed for K-10 in the Russian factory records. The APU-L launchers are designed to carry Russia's LMUR, a precision-guided missile also known as Product 305 or the Kh-39. The roughly 230-pound missile carries a 55-pound warhead and can be guided in flight by an operator using an electro-optical seeker and two-way radio link. FOREIGN LEADER ON PUTIN’S DOORSTEP SOUNDS ALARM OVER IRAN FUELING MOSCOW’S WAR MACHINE Iran had already publicly announced plans to acquire Russian Mi-28 attack helicopters, one of the platforms capable of carrying the weapon. The first export-variant Mi-28NE helicopters were photographed in Iran in January 2026. The paperwork also shows involvement by Russia's Defense Ministry. A May 2024 letter accompanying the K-10 production schedule was co-signed by the head of the ministry's 123rd Military Representation. The documents do not establish whether the completed launchers ultimately reached Iran, though Dallas Analytics told Fox News Digital the contract itself is "a very strong proof" of the transfer. SATELLITE IMAGES MAY HAVE TIPPED OFF IRAN BEFORE US BASE ATTACK, TOP REPUBLICAN WARNS The findings add new detail to a military relationship the Trump administration has repeatedly played down during the war. U.S. intelligence has assessed that Russia provided Iran with information on the location of American military assets and, more recently, satellite imagery and weapons components, according to reports. But administration officials have said that support has not materially affected the U.S. campaign. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Russian assistance was not impeding U.S. military operations, while Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has said the U.S. was tracking Moscow's support and accounting for it in its battle plans. The Trump administration has separately sought to disrupt Iran's foreign weapons procurement as Tehran works to rebuild its military capabilities. The Treasury Department has targeted networks it says helped Iran seek weapons and components abroad, including efforts to acquire Chinese-made man-portable air-defense systems. Just this week, the State Department sanctioned a Russia-based individual it said was involved in efforts to help Iran procure Chinese-made man-portable air-defense systems, or MANPADS.

Tim Moore in North Carolina’s 14th Congressional District race, Democrat LaKesha Womack is set to appear in court on a pending felony charge. Womack secured 51.1% of the vote in the House race, while Moore received 48.9%, according to election results reported by The Associated Press. The Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office previously confirmed to Fox News Digital that Womack had been served a criminal summons on Oct. 11 by a deputy with the Polk County Sheriff’s Office on a pending felony charge alleging she failed to return a rental vehicle valued at $20,000 in 2019. The criminal summons was issued in January 2020 but not served until 2026, according to WBTV. Womack is set to appear in court on Nov. 10, The New York Post reported Thursday. REDISTRICTING EFFORTS BLOW UP IN REPUBLICANS' FACES AMID HISTORIC HOUSE LOSSES Womack previously acknowledged failing to return the rental car on time, saying she was experiencing homelessness at the time and was unaware that a criminal case had been filed against her. "This historic victory is bigger than me. It is a testament to the power of ordinary people who believe that their voices matter and that leadership should be rooted in service, accountability, and opportunity for all," Womack told Fox News Digital in a statement on Friday. "As a Black woman, a single mother, an entrepreneur, and someone who has spent more than two decades helping communities grow, I understand both the challenges people face and the possibilities we can create together." DEMOCRATS SEIZE HOUSE CONTROL IN STUNNING BLUE TSUNAMI, VOW RETRIBUTION AGAINST TRUMP ADMIN "We didn't just make history in North Carolina's 14th Congressional District; we opened the door for a new generation of leaders who listen, learn, and lead for the people," she continued. When asked about facing the felony charge on Friday, Womack declined to comment to Fox News Digital. Under North Carolina law, the charge is a Class H felony that can carry a prison sentence exceeding two years, depending on the defendant's criminal history and other sentencing factors. Under House rules, members formally charged with a felony punishable by two or more years in prison are expected to step aside from committee assignments and party leadership positions while the charges remain pending, a provision that could become relevant to Womack once she takes office in January. Moore's campaign did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. "My opponent needs to explain these pending felony charges to the voters of North Carolina District 14," Moore wrote in an Oct. 28 post on X. "With a court date literally the week after the election this is a big deal."

Most teams have already played one game, and many are already on their second or third. We've already seen some upsets, some blowouts, and some tight battles. College basketball is one of my favorites, especially in the early season because the lines are usually a bit softer. There are just too many sports and games for the books to have an edge everywhere. One game I think we have an edge in is between UConn and Michigan. UConn comes into the game having beaten Gardner-Webb in their season opener. That was a bit of a joke because they won that game by 40 points. As expected, Braylon Mullins led the way with 20 points, and he was efficient from deep, hitting four of nine threes. It is hard to judge just how this team will use their minutes because that game saw virtually everyone get into the action. Their starters played roughly half the game, but Colben Landrew, Oskar Giltay, and Junior County all played about half the game as well from off the bench. As is normally the case for a Dan Hurley team, the Huskies are going to be a high-tempo offense looking for easy buckets or open threes. They will have solid rim protection, and they will be a good rebounding team. However, there are some warranted questions about just how good this team will be. I'm not sure that they have a true go-to scorer. Perhaps that's better at this level, because they can have more diversity from their scorers instead of relying on just one guy. Solo Ball is out for the season, so they will need to figure out how to replace his production. UCONN, KANSAS AND TEXAS OFFER THE BEST COLLEGE BASKETBALL NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP ODDS VALUE Michigan has undergone quite a bit of transformation after last season. They hoisted the national championship trophy, lost multiple players to the NBA, and then lost their head coach, also to the NBA. Roddy Gayle Jr. will be a solid scoring guard for them and should provide some strong veteran leadership. Gayle scored 17 points in just 25 minutes of basketball in Michigan's first game, hitting a solid 64% of his shots. Trey McKenney is another returning guard for the club. He had 17 points in the opener as well. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM That wasn't a very comfortable win for the Wolverines. The team played Oakland, and they won by 16 points, but it felt like the Wolverines had to work harder than usual to keep Oakland from coming back in the game. They ended the game with four guys in double figures. It should be interesting to see how good the team can actually be. Last year, they blew everyone out, and they seemingly scored 100 points every game. It wasn't that easy, but under Mike Boynton, I do have questions about this offense. He is a defensive guy who worked under May. DUSTY MAY SHARES HIS EXCITEMENT FOR MAVERICKS JOB AFTER JUMPING FROM COLLEGE TO PROS This is an early-season test for both of these teams. UConn is ranked 4th in the country, and Michigan is ranked 16th. The last time these two teams played was in the national championship last season. Michigan won that game and took away a chance at a third championship in four years for UConn. I think the Huskies have a couple of edges here. The Huskies are -7.5 tonight, and I think they will cover. They are playing this game in Boston, which is much closer for UConn fans. It should feel like more of a home game. The other thing is that I think the Huskies want a bit of revenge after losing in the national championship last season. Also, the women's UConn team lost last night to Michigan, so the men's team may try to avenge that one as well.

The running back had been listed on the Patriots' injury report with an illness, but the extent of the illness was not known until now. The Patriots running back is in his second season with the team after being selected in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft out of Ohio State. In six games this season, Henderson has 52 carries for 203 yards and a touchdown and has caught five passes for 45 yards.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee054369fbdcb35dec43ad What’s next for Turning Point after Republican losses in the midterms? te 2026-11-06T16:50:11.686Z What’s next for Turning Point after Republican losses in the midterms? Key Points Republicans are divided over the future of Turning Point USA in Arizona Some moderates say the group should stay out of the candidate selection process Erika Kirk, TPUSA’s CEO, says now is not the time for finger-pointing Turning Point USA put its money and reputation behind Republicans in Arizona, only to see its candidates take an electoral drubbing on Tuesday. While some blame national political headwinds, others are pointing fingers at Turning Point itself. Founded by activist Charlie Kirk, the Phoenix-based conservative advocacy group recruited or supported primary challengers in nearly every statewide race, helping to unseat two GOP incumbents. But its candidates struggled in the general election, contributing to a likely Democratic sweep of statewide offices for the first time in decades.  Turning Point-backed candidates elsewhere also lost, including Texas gubernatorial candidate Ken Paxton, Iowa gubernatorial candidate Zach Lahn and GOP Senate candidate John Sununu in New Hampshire. The defeats have intensified a growing divide among Arizona Republicans over Turning Point’s role in selecting the party’s candidates. Some Republicans argue the group’s success in primaries has come at the expense of the party’s ability to win over independents and moderate voters in general elections.   “The way to start winning elections is to move away from Turning Point and nominate traditional Republicans rather than extremists,” said Tom Horne, superintendent of public instruction, who lost his primary bid for reelection this year to Turning Point-endorsed state Treasurer Kimberly Yee.  Yee is poised to lose to Democrat Teresa Leyba Ruiz, who led 53% to 47% as of Thursday afternoon.  Turning Point did not respond to an interview request.  But Turning Point CEO and Chair Erika Kirk said in a Wednesday social media post that the organization will keep fighting for conservative causes and will study the election results to decide its next steps. Turning Point is closely aligned with President Donald Trump, who has credited the group with helping turn out the youth vote to propel him to victory in 2024.  “The biggest mistake conservatives can make right now would be to allow this moment to become another exercise in finger-pointing, in-fighting, or trying to secure their own political preservation,” Kirk wrote on X. “That does not solve the problems the American people are demanding be solved.”  Concerns that Turning Point is ‘too extreme’ Rep. Andy Biggs, Republican candidate for governor, speaks to supporters outside the American Way Smokehouse in Chandler. At left is Biggs’ running mate for lieutenant governor, Sine Kerr. (Rachel Ohm/Arizona Capitol Times) Turning Point threw its full weight behind Congressman Andy Biggs’ gubernatorial campaign as consultants and moderate Republicans warned the group would need a win to maintain its grip on the state’s conservative base. Turning Point Action, the group’s political action committee, spent more than $18 million to support Biggs’ campaign.  Even so, the congressman lost to incumbent Gov. Katie Hobbs, 56% to 43% as of Thursday afternoon. Drew Sexton, Biggs’ senior campaign adviser, attributed the loss to Democrats’ united front and a tough political environment. “There already seems to be a lot of cynical finger pointing, which is unfortunate, but I hope at some point we’ll get to move forward as a party,” Sexton wrote on social media. “I’m very grateful for every organization and supporter who pitched in to help Andy and our team and I’m so sorry we let those folks down.” But some argue Turning Point made the mistake of selecting extreme candidates who couldn’t win over independents and moderate voters in the general election.  After Turning Point-aligned candidates fell short in Arizona’s 2022 contests, the Phoenix-based conservative group tried to prove its viability through a 2025 Mesa City Council recall election and off-cycle Salt River Project board races. While TPUSA unseated moderate City Councilor Julie Spilsbury, voters turned out in record numbers in the SRP election to thwart the group’s slate of candidates.   “I think Turning Point is good at winning primaries, but the candidates that win primaries can’t win general elections because they’re too extreme,” Horne said. Corporation Commissioner Nick Myers, who also received primary treatment from Turning Point, said this election could keep more conservatives from stepping up to run for office. After losing to Rep. Ralph Heap, R-Mesa, in July, Myers said he’ll consider a future run only if Turning Point no longer influences the process. “If they go away, then maybe I would,” Myers said. “Because I don’t want to have to fight my own people to do a job.” Perception or reality? Stan Barnes, a former Republican lawmaker and president of Copper State Consulting Group, a public affairs firm, said Republican losses aren’t solely attributable to Turning Point — but the group’s involvement is a piece of what went wrong.  “For better or worse, there’s a perception of zealotry by the average person and regular voters [towards Turning Point candidates],” Barnes said. “That’s not a good thing. It may or may not be fact, but the perception is real, and that perception does not help.” Turning Point — and Republicans more broadly — must now take a new look at what voters want and how they might reinvent themselves, he said.  “The Republican Party finds itself in Arizona in the wilderness for the first time in 60 years,” Barnes said. “It’s a new place. And how the party comports itself now … will set the stage for eventual success, if it is to be had.” Arizona Democrats say that Turning Point isn’t going away anytime soon. And despite their new majorities, Republicans still lead in Arizona voter registration. “The thing that [Democrats] need to be cognizant of is keeping this coalition intact by legislating the correct way so that we don’t have more 2024 backlash years and we can actually build off of this,” said consultant Matt Grodsky.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aee02ee69fbdcb35dec431f Blue wave battered GOP strongholds across America, but one red state held the line te 2026-11-06T16:40:14.562Z Blue wave battered GOP strongholds across America, but one red state held the line On a night when Democrats made major gains across the country, South Dakota emerged as one of the few Republican strongholds where the GOP largely held its ground — even as Democrats made inroads around Sioux Falls. Republican Gov. Larry Rhoden won roughly 63.5% of the vote Tuesday, nearly matching President Donald Trump's 63.4% performance in 2024. Republicans also swept the state's other statewide races and maintained overwhelming control of the legislature, despite Democrats picking up four seats. Rhoden's victory came against Democrat Dan Ahlers, who described himself as a "conservative Democrat" and campaigned on affordability, rural healthcare, education and other kitchen table issues. But his moderate pitch did little to narrow the GOP's commanding statewide advantage, with Ahlers finishing at just 36.5% of the vote. South Dakota's results stood in contrast to several other deeply Republican states where the GOP maintained control but saw its margins shrink considerably. In Idaho and Wyoming, Republican gubernatorial candidates won comfortably but finished with smaller shares of the vote than President Donald Trump secured in 2024. South Dakota's gubernatorial result, by comparison, remained virtually unchanged. DESANTIS CALLS GOP MIDTERM LOSSES 'EXTINCTION-LEVEL EVENT' — AND EXPLAINS WHY FLORIDA SURVIVED David Jolly, the Democratic nominee in Florida, ran a campaign with similar themes to Ahlers' — pointing to the fact that he used to be a Republican and, like Ahlers, prioritized affordability and healthcare while on the campaign trail. Jolly cut the GOP’s vote share to just 50%, roughly six points below the party’s 2024 presidential performance. Tennessee's Democratic gubernatorial nominee inflicted a similarly sharp cut on Republicans margins by employing a similar strategy. Even down the ballot, South Dakota Republicans largely held their ground, though Democrats managed to flip four legislative seats in the Sioux Falls area, marking their first legislative gains in the state since 2008. The losses were concentrated around the state's largest city, where a growing population and a less conservative political landscape have created more opportunities for Democrats, according to University of South Dakota political scientist Julia Hellwege. Opposition to large data-center projects also resonated with some voters in the area, according to a local Democratic official. "South Dakota Republicans did well because we took on the issues that mattered to the people of our state and delivered real results for them," South Dakota's Republican House Speaker, Jon Hansen, told Fox News Digital. "The bottom line is that we ran on tackling the issues that mattered to people, and then we delivered real results for the people on those issues. Not just talk, not just excuses, but real solutions. It’s what our people deserve and it’s what we delivered for them." FOX NEWS VOTER POLL: 2026 MIDTERM ELECTIONS USHER IN A BLUE WAVE AS DEMOCRATS WIN CONTROL OF CONGRESS Hansen pointed to property tax cuts enacted by the legislature, regulations aimed at preventing utility costs from rising amid data center build outs, curbing corporate eminent domain and balancing the state's budget, among other efforts, as crucial in the South Dakota GOP's success on Tuesday night. South Dakota’s unemployment rate has been hovering around 2% since last September, roughly half the rate of the United States at large. Average wages also increased by about 4% in the state over the course of 2025. All of this occurred as South Dakota remained one of the most affordable states in the country, though rising rent costs outpaced wage growth in 2025, according to data collected by Realtor.com. At the federal level, Republican Sen. Mike Rounds cruised to victory with 60.5% of the vote, though the GOP wasn't entirely immune to the national shift. South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley won the state's at-large congressional seat with roughly 64% of the vote, down from the 72% fellow Republican Dusty Johnson secured in 2024. South Dakota's relatively modest legislative losses stood in sharp contrast to other Republican strongholds. In Texas, Democrats flipped 21 GOP-held state House seats, while Republicans in New Hampshire were on track to fall from the 222 House seats they won in 2024 to just 107. DEMOCRATS SEIZE MAJORITY OF GOVERNORS’ OFFICES IN ELECTION-NIGHT SHIFT Republicans in Arizona, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Georgia, North Carolina and Michigan all lost control of at least one chamber of their state legislatures on Tuesday night. "Those Republicans who lost on Nov. 3, did so because their actions (or inaction) didn’t match their promises to voters. We didn’t have that problem in South Dakota under our leadership," South Dakota's GOP House Majority Leader, Rep. Scott Odenbach, told Fox News Digital.

PROFIT PRESSURE: U.S. stocks plunged Thursday as investors dumped AI stocks, but market experts say Wall Street's concerns go beyond a single bad day. POWER STRUGGLE: President Donald Trump has thrown the federal government's weight behind massive data center build-outs needed to power the country's artificial intelligence (AI) boom. But a historic Democratic sweep in Texas has put one of the nation's biggest AI infrastructure hubs under new political leadership, raising questions about the future of billions of dollars in planned investments. CORPORATE TRIM: Google is extending its buyout program to selected workers in five additional countries as the company looks for ways to control expenses while pouring money into artificial intelligence programs. ON HIS FEET: Former Army Secretary Dan Driscoll is joining the artificial intelligence company OpenAI in a national security-related role, the organization announced on Monday.

NEXT CHAPTER: Democrats' takeover of both chambers of Congress in the midterm elections drew mixed reactions from investors and business leaders Wednesday, with some anticipating greater economic stability and others warning of increased scrutiny of artificial intelligence and data center development. UNDER THE MICROSCOPE: The midterm elections ushered in Democratic majorities in both the House and Senate for the next two years, along with state-level gains that could shake up oversight of artificial intelligence (AI). AI LANDMARK: At the opening of the world's largest energy conference in Abu Dhabi, artificial intelligence took center stage alongside oil and gas as OpenAI CEO Sam Altman joined senior UAE officials for the announcement of a major partnership aimed at bringing advanced AI into the energy industry.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aedfbe769fbdcb35dec4162 Reporter's Notebook: How midterms may change the House impeachment equation for Hegseth te 2026-11-06T16:10:15.855Z Reporter's Notebook: How midterms may change the House impeachment equation for Hegseth Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., plans to reintroduce articles of impeachment for Pentagon Chief Pete Hegseth next week. The chances are increasingly high that the House could in fact impeach Hegseth. Why? Massie tried to impeach Hegseth before the midterms. But the House adjourned a day early in September, nixing Massie’s effort. House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., condemned the effort by Massie. But insisted that he didn’t send members home early because of fear that the House had the votes to impeach Hegseth. So Massie’s articles of impeachment expired. But he will reintroduce them next week. Under the rules, the House must consider them within two days. THE HITCHHIKER’S GUIDE TO MASSIE SAYING JOHNSON IS SENDING THE HOUSE HOME EARLY TO PREVENT HEGSETH IMPEACHMENT It’s possible the House could move to table the articles, or send them to committee, euthanizing the effort. But a growing number of House Republicans have grumbled about Hegseth. Any effort to dismiss the articles in the House might not work. It’s about the math. All Democrats are likely to vote to impeach. There are some Republicans who have said privately they’d like to impeach. Now, after the midterms, you have more Republicans hoping to build distance between themselves and President Trump. Moreover, the war in Iran contributed directly to the GOP’s thumping. So even more Republicans may be willing to impeach. Finally, the GOP may have attendance problems. Members who lost — or were shocked that they lost — might not show up. In other words, there may be more Democrats in the House next week than Republicans. Don’t forget that some Republicans are now looking for a scapegoat after the election. DEMS SEIZE THE SENATE AS BLUE TIDAL WAVE CRASHES DEEP INTO TRUMP COUNTRY, TOPPLES GOP STRONGHOLDS A simple majority is necessary to impeach. Then the House would send the articles of impeachment to the Senate. Under Senate rules of impeachment, the Senate must at least receive and consider the articles. But it could move quickly to dismiss. That’s what happened when the Senate considered articles of impeachment for former Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas a few years ago. The bona fide "trial" part of the process never happened where the Senate heard arguments, listened to witnesses and took evidence. It takes a simple majority to dismiss such articles. Again, this could happen under a Republican-controlled Senate. But how might outgoing Sens. John Cornyn, R-Texas, Thom Tillis, R-N.C., and Bill Cassidy, R-La., vote?  That’s to say nothing of Sens. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, John Curtis, R-Alaska, Todd Young ,R-Ind., and others. STATE OF PLAY: BLUE WAVE SWEEPS DEMOCRATS INTO POWER, WITH KEY RACES STILL HANGING IN BALANCE It takes a two-thirds vote to convict and remove in a Senate impeachment trial. In addition, unlikely legislation, articles of impeachment carry over into the new Congress. Would a new Democratically-controlled Senate want to get bogged down in an impeachment trial from the start? Especially when new Democrats want to vote on affordability and health care? Or, would a Democratic Senate embrace the idea of a full-blown impeachment trial for Hegseth – especially since the execution of the war in Iran seems to be one of the main reasons for this week’s electoral shellacking? Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aedfbe669fbdcb35dec4159 'Jimmy' star Jen Lilley says keeping Jesus at center of marriage helped through 'extremely difficult times' te 2026-11-06T16:10:14.423Z 'Jimmy' star Jen Lilley says keeping Jesus at center of marriage helped through 'extremely difficult times' Hollywood has seen its fair share of high-profile breakups, but Jen Lilley says the secret to her nearly 20-year marriage has nothing to do with fame, fortune or romance. In an interview with Fox News Digital, the "Jimmy" star credited putting Jesus first with helping her and her husband get through some of life's most challenging moments. For Lilley, the secret isn't a Hollywood-approved relationship trick or a carefully guarded marriage formula. WILLIE ROBERTSON'S FAITH-BASED ADVICE THAT'S KEPT HIS 34-YEAR MARRIAGE TO WIFE KORIE STRONG "This is just something that I can say for me personally. You know, maybe it's not the secret for other people, but we both, we have a really strong faith," Lilley told Fox News Digital. "And I think that for us, keeping Jesus at the center of our marriage has really been what has gotten us through extremely difficult times," she said. WATCH: JEN LILLEY WON'T LET HOLLYWOOD GET IN THE WAY OF HER FAMILY Lilley said her commitment to faith also influences the roles she takes in Hollywood. CHRIS PRATT SAYS HIS FAITH WILL BE 'THE MOST IMPORTANT THING' THAT HE PASSES ON TO HIS KIDS While many actors chase the next big opportunity, Lilley says no role is worth sacrificing for her brood. "I think the values that I hold onto are actually common to most people, but I really value my family. I will make decisions based on the well-being of my own children and my marriage, even when sometimes it's not what I want," she said. "There have been times I've had to turn down a role or something because it just doesn't fit what I need in this season." "The values that I've carried are just really making sure that you're loving your family and your neighbor well," she added. Lilley married engineer Jason Wayne in 2007, and the couple share four children, including two sons adopted through foster care and two daughters. In her latest project, the actress portrays Gloria Stewart, the wife of Hollywood legend Jimmy Stewart, in the biopic "Jimmy." While preparing for the part, Lilley discovered a love story that went far beyond the glamour of Hollywood. TIM ALLEN REVEALS THE ONE THING THAT HAS SAVED HIS NEARLY 20-YEAR MARRIAGE TO JANE HAJDUK "I think what surprised me the most was just how much they enjoyed each other's company their entire lives," she told Fox News Digital. Jimmy Stewart, once dubbed Hollywood's eternal bachelor, found lasting love with Gloria, who brought two sons from a previous marriage into their relationship. Stewart adopted the boys, and the couple later welcomed two daughters together. But their marriage faced challenges that went far beyond Hollywood. Lilley said Stewart returned from serving in World War II with symptoms she described as consistent with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), at a time when the condition was not yet formally recognized under that name.  She described Gloria as the actor's emotional anchor — someone who could navigate Hollywood's elite social circles but also provide a safe haven when the cameras stopped rolling. WATCH: JIMMY STEWART'S FINAL WISH STRIKES A CHORD WITH ACTRESS JEN LILLEY Lilley told Fox News Digital portraying Gloria also gave her a fresh perspective on what keeps a marriage standing when life gets messy — trust, laughter and having someone who feels like home. ‘CHARLIE’S ANGELS’ STAR JACLYN SMITH LIVED APART FROM HER HUSBAND FOR 17 YEARS DURING THEIR 35-YEAR LOVE STORY "I think what made their marriage really work was the fact that they did have so much trust with each other, and they had a lot of humor," she said. "I mean, I think that if you don't have a sense of humor, good luck getting through life. You know, life has a perfectly adequate way of knocking you back down often." The lesson hit close to home for Lilley, who said the Stewarts' relationship reinforced the importance of finding laughter even during difficult seasons and being a dependable source of comfort for a spouse.

Crews started excavating the site Wednesday, once utility workers had drained water and cleared other hazards, the National Transportation Safety Board said Thursday. The Learjet 60 left Austin-Bergstrom International Airport around 10:37 a.m. Sunday, bound for North Eleuthera Airport in the Bahamas. Just before 1 p.m., it plunged into Palm Beach County, killing everyone aboard. Once digging began, investigators uncovered a portion of one engine, officials said, noting that debris had also turned up on the roofs of nearby homes and buildings. Earlier in the week, investigators recovered the left tail elevator, which controls the jet's pitch, in three separate pieces, one of them nearly four miles from where the Learjet 60 went down. PRIVATE JET WITH 9 PEOPLE ON BOARD CRASHES JUST MILES FROM MAR-A-LAGO National Transportation Safety Board member Thomas B. Chapman called the part a "very important piece of evidence" when he spoke to reporters Tuesday. "Even small pieces of the wreckage may contain important evidence that could help investigators determine what happened," the agency wrote on social media.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aedf99069fbdcb35dec40ed Luka Doncic and the Lakers look to avenge home loss against the surging Portland Trail Blazers te 2026-11-06T16:00:16.545Z Luka Doncic and the Lakers look to avenge home loss against the surging Portland Trail Blazers We put another win on the board in the NBA last night with a narrow victory in the Magic vs. Suns game. I probably should've just taken the Suns to win the game, because that was an easy victory. However, I won't complain about a win. There were only two NBA games last night, and tonight we have nine on the schedule. One that stands out to me is the game between the Trail Blazers and the Lakers. The Portland Trail Blazers are arguably the most impressive team in the early season. Coming into tonight, the team is 6-1 with a 5-0 record on the road this season. They were a solid team last season, mostly due to the advancement of Deni Avdija. Last year, he averaged 24.2 points per game, which was seven points more per game than he had averaged in any other season. This year he is at 23.4 points per game, but he has also maintained his rebounding and assist outputs from last season as well. Coming into the season, I was a bit skeptical of the Trail Blazers. The team was going to be deep at guard, but I wasn't sure how effective the combination would be. Damian Lillard, Scoot Henderson, Jrue Holiday, and Ja Morant (Morant is out) seemed like they wouldn't be able to mix together. At least in the beginning of the season, I've been wrong about that. The team is deep, plays defense, and doesn't seem to have any issues with the offense. Lillard, in his return to Portland, has been outstanding, averaging 20 points in just under 30 minutes. GRIZZLIES TRADE JA MORANT TO TRAIL BLAZERS, ENDING TUMULTUOUS TENURE IN MEMPHIS: REPORT It shouldn't be a surprise that the Los Angeles Lakers are one of the better teams in the league. They moved on from LeBron James in the offseason, which isn't exactly a good thing, but doesn't appear to be a bad thing either. It has certainly opened up Luka Doncic to cook even more on offense. He is averaging an absurd 38.5 points per game this year on almost 50% shooting. Doncic is also averaging eight assists per game, but that's also coming with five turnovers per game. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM The rest of the team has found some good balance as well. Austin Reaves remains a solid second option, and Walker Kessler has been an awesome addition to the team. He is averaging 14.4 points per game on 72% shooting, 10.2 rebounds per game, and 2.7 blocks per game. The rest of the team is mostly role players, but that hasn't mattered so far. The Lakers are 7-2 for the season with losses coming against the Warriors on the road, and the other to the Trail Blazers at home. This is a revenge game for the Lakers. As good as Portland has been this season, I don't think this is a great spot for them. They've been on the road for a few games, and they've won them all comfortably, but they have a game tomorrow at home. I like fading teams on the last game of a road trip, and the Lakers won't want to lose twice to this team. I expect a good effort from them. Give me the Lakers -2.5.

But the measure has also triggered a federal First Amendment lawsuit alleging its separate speech and disclosure provisions could ensnare journalists, nonprofits and policy researchers who discuss elected officials. Michiganders for Money Out of Politics, also known as MOP UP Michigan, said the lawsuit was expected after voters approved Proposal 2. Campaign manager Maura Cowley said the group is "confident Proposal 2 will withstand legal scrutiny" after organizers said they submitted more than 560,000 signatures to place the measure on the ballot. The Mackinac Center for Public Policy, which filed the lawsuit, says it is not challenging the initiative’s central pay-to-play restrictions on political contributions from utility companies and government contractors. Its lawsuit instead targets provisions imposing reporting and disclosure requirements on certain communications that refer to candidates or " promote, support, attack, or oppose" candidates or ballot questions, even without expressly urging voters to support or oppose them. "Michigan voters deserve the freedom to research, debate, and report on the policies that shape their lives. But Proposal 2 is a Trojan horse: while it claims to target corruption, it would expose the Mackinac Center, its supporters, and ordinary Michiganders to criminal penalties and harassment simply for discussing public policy," Patrick Wright, the Mackinac Center’s vice president of legal affairs, said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital. SURVEY REVEALS COLLEGE STUDENTS' GROWING INTOLERANCE FOR FREE SPEECH Under Proposal 2, any person — not just a campaign or political committee — who makes "electioneering communications" aggregating at least $5,000 in a calendar year would have to file a report within 10 days. Additional reports would be required after each additional $5,000 in covered communications. The reports would include the dates and costs of the communications, candidates mentioned, vendors paid and information about donors who contributed more than $100 for the purpose of making the communications. Proposal 2 defines "electioneering communications" as public messages — including broadcasts, print publications, mailings, telephone calls, internet communications and other forms of general public communication — that reference a clearly identifiable candidate, regardless of whether they contain express advocacy, within 100 days of a general election or 30 days before a primary or special election. The communication must also be targeted to the relevant electorate where the candidate appears on the ballot, according to the provision. Mackinac argues the measure leaves important questions unanswered, including which expenses count toward the $5,000 threshold, what it means for a donor to contribute "for making electioneering communications," and how the state will determine whether a communication is targeted to the relevant electorate. SUPREME COURT STRIKES DOWN LIMIT ON PARTY CAMPAIGN SPENDING IN COORDINATION WITH CANDIDATES The Mackinac Center’s lawsuit also challenges Proposal 2’s expansion of the definition of an election-related "expenditure." The amended definition includes public communications that "promote, support, attack, or oppose" a candidate or ballot question, regardless of whether they expressly advocate for or against the outcome. Under the proposal’s revised committee definition, an organization that spends at least $500 on such expenditures could be treated as a political committee if the state determines the spending was intended to influence voters. Brett Nolan, an Institute for Free Speech attorney representing Mackinac, told Fox News Digital that the new electioneering-communications reporting provision contains no express exception for neutral reporting, legislative voting records or policy research. Proposal 2 does retain an existing exemption for certain news stories, commentary and editorials from being treated as campaign spending, but Mackinac argues that exemption does not resolve the reporting requirements for electioneering communications. Mackinac’s complaint points specifically to its MichiganVotes project, policy scorecards, a neutral policy brief about Proposal 2, magazines, radio programs, podcasts and public-policy events as examples of speech that could be swept up in the new requirements because those materials sometimes discuss elected officials or candidates. GOP LAWMAKERS URGE SUPREME COURT TO STRENGTHEN FIRST AMENDMENT PROTECTIONS FOR STREET PREACHERS "The Supreme Court has said several times in recent years that disclosure mandates like this create an 'inevitable' chilling effect on free speech because the risk of political harassment (or worse) is so significant. The more costs we impose on those who want to exchange ideas and discuss public policy, the fewer of those people we will have," Nolan said. "This law goes much further than addressing any interest the state may have in transparency about those who are funding campaigns and election advocacy," he continued. "The notion that the government has an interest in monitoring people who talk about public policy if they dare mention an elected official is antithetical to the First Amendment." The lawsuit against Proposal 2 seeks to block the electioneering-communications reporting requirement and the political-committee rules as applied to Mackinac — not to overturn Proposal 2 in its entirety. The measure is set to take effect 10 days after the official declaration of the vote, and no later than Dec. 3, according to the lawsuit. "This lawsuit is no surprise," Cowley said in a statement to Fox News Digital. "The corporations bankrolling our opposition have been gearing up for this lawsuit since Proposal 2 first qualified for the ballot, if not before." SIGN UP TO GET THE POLITICS NEWSLETTER According to MOP UP Michigan, besides curbing pay-to-play political donations, Proposal 2 is designed to close what the group calls an "issue-ad loophole" — the ability to discuss candidates or ballot questions without expressly urging voters to support or oppose them in order to avoid certain disclosure rules. "Last night, Michiganders spoke loud and clear, voting to pass Proposal 2 with an overwhelming majority and delivering a resounding mandate to end pay-to-play politics and put power back where it belongs – with the people," Cowley continued. "The bottom line is that we are confident Proposal 2 will withstand legal scrutiny, and we were fully expecting and are prepared to take on this challenge."

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aedf4de69fbdcb35dec3fa3 Red states have spent decades dominating a key corner of the economy — will the blue wave change that? te 2026-11-06T15:40:14.526Z Red states have spent decades dominating a key corner of the economy — will the blue wave change that? DALLAS — Red states have quietly outpaced their blue-state counterparts in commercial real estate investment returns for years, according to a new study highlighting stark differences in state economic policies. But sweeping Democratic gains in Tuesday's midterm elections — even in traditionally deep-red strongholds — are raising questions about whether those states can maintain their economic advantages as the political landscape shifts in the new year. Mitch Flax, founder and chief investment officer of Net Equity Capital, told Fox News Digital his research was sparked by the observation that commercial real estate investors based in blue states were reluctant to invest in their own markets. The findings underscore a broader economic battle playing out across the country as businesses and wealthy Americans relocate across state lines, bringing jobs, investment dollars and tax revenue with them while potentially leaving financial holes in the states they abandon. CEO SAYS DOING BUSINESS IN STATE ‘SUCKS’ AS COMPANY HEADS TO TEXAS AMID CALIFORNIA EXODUS "I had a large family office based out of Chicago who lives in California who said, we don't invest in real estate in blue states," Flax recalled. Coming on the heels of the 2026 midterms, the study also raises questions about whether the state-level tax and business policies that have helped fuel growth in red states will remain intact as Democrats make political gains and begin to enact their agenda. The encounter prompted Flax to examine nearly 24,000 commercial real estate transactions to determine whether political differences between states were associated with investment performance. Researchers used a proxy to estimate returns and classified states as red or blue based on their votes in the 2024 presidential election. Flax attributed the performance gap identified in his analysis largely to differences in state-level business policies, arguing that those policies influence where companies relocate, jobs are created and, ultimately, where capital flows. AMERICA’S NEXT ECONOMIC POWERHOUSE MAY BE RISING IN RED-STATE TERRITORY The findings come as corporate migration toward lower-tax states rose in recent years, with Texas emerging as a major destination for companies relocating from costly coastal hubs. Flax says that Texas is on track to be the next Singapore-style "tax haven" for companies, due to its policies attracting business and industry. "We've all seen the movie ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ — get ready for Crazy Rich Texans, because that movie is coming," he said. It's unclear how Tuesday's results will impact that prediction after Texas flipped a U.S. Senate seat blue with Senator-elect James Talarico beating Ken Paxton, who was backed by President Donald Trump, and Democrat Governor-elect Gina Hinojosa beating Republican Gov. Greg Abbott. As Fox News Digital previously reported, a CBRE analysis found that 725 companies relocated their headquarters between 2018 and 2025. Dallas-Fort Worth led the nation with 111 relocations, followed by Austin with 88 and Houston with 31. Meanwhile, the San Francisco Bay Area, a deep blue enclave, recorded a net loss of 163 corporate headquarters during the same period, as companies cited taxes, labor regulations and rising living costs among their reasons for leaving. THIS STATE ISN’T JUST GROWING — ITS ECONOMY IS GETTING RICHER PER RESIDENT Flax, however, also argued that population shifts and corporate relocations are symptoms of a deeper economic divide, with underlying business policies shaping investment decisions and determining where capital flows. "Most of the large asset managers out there are underwriting population in this migration flow. But the reality is that's a symptom," Flax told Fox News Digital. "When you look at exactly what's causing it, it's pure structural business policy," he added. Flax said those policies can trigger a ripple effect across the commercial real estate market as businesses relocate, workers follow and demand grows for housing, retail and office space. "Migration is the symptom, but it's a cascade, right? So policy draws people and companies and then every kind of commercial real estate follows," Flax said. "Apartments follow migration, retail follows rooftops, office follows jobs, warehouse follows logistics."

The European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS) is currently not operating and applications are not being accepted, according to guidance from the European Union. The EU said it will announce the specific launch date several months before the program begins. TRAVELERS MAY FACE MAJOR DISRUPTIONS AS STRIKES THREATEN AIRPORTS AND POPULAR ATTRACTIONS Even so, more than 150 third-party websites have reportedly appeared offering ETIAS-related information or services, as reported by The Guardian. Bobby Laurie, a Pennsylvania-based travel expert and former flight attendant, told Fox News Digital that some sites are designed to appear legitimate when travelers search online for information about European entry requirements. "These scam websites are set up to look like official government websites," Laurie said. The biggest warning sign for travelers right now is the request that they pay for an ETIAS authorization, Laurie said. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTER "The most important thing to remember right now is the program has not started," he said. "So there's no reason to pay a fee, period." The EU has also warned travelers about possible abuse by commercial intermediaries, including websites that may make themselves appear to be the official application channel. Other concerns include excessive fees and the possible misuse of personal or financial information, according to the EU. Once ETIAS launches, legitimate third parties will be allowed to submit applications on behalf of travelers.  Laurie noted that travelers will also be able to apply themselves through the official EU website. CLICK HERE FOR MORE LIFESTYLE STORIES For Americans traveling before the ETIAS program takes effect, Laurie recommended checking the official entry requirements for each country on their itinerary, particularly when connecting through countries with separate rules. Travelers who have already provided payment information to a suspicious website should contact their credit card company, Laurie said. He also recommended monitoring for fraudulent charges and considering identity monitoring if passport or other sensitive personal information was provided. "You don't know where that information is going to end up," Laurie said. TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ Laurie said travelers should avoid rushing through online searches for entry requirements and instead make sure they are using official government sources. "They're just banking on you not reading and trying to do something in a hurry," he said. ETIAS will eventually be required for certain visa-exempt travelers visiting participating European countries, but the EU says it is not currently accepting applications.

Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. assembled a detailed blueprint for potential Democratic congressional investigations to target President Donald Trump and his allies beyond the White House, which could foreshadow the goals of the 120th Congress. Groundwork Collaborative's dossier, obtained and analyzed by Fox News Digital, maps Trump donors and corporate allies for potential Democratic congressional investigations. Leaders in big tech and CEOs of large corporations are likely to be among the targets of the anti-Trump crusade. A longtime Democratic Senate staffer familiar with the process told Fox News Digital that the Democratic majorities on these committees already plan to exclusively focus on targeting allies and donors of the president, going as far as targeting the ones who donated to the new White House ballroom, once they move into the majority. HOUSE GOP LAUNCHES DEFENSE PLAN TO SHIELD TRUMP FROM LOOMING DEMOCRAT INVESTIGATIONS However, the staffer did not see the document, which specifically says to target those who gave to the ballroom, library, Trump’s inauguration and campaign. Reports had said it was obtained by House committees as well, but a House Judiciary Committee aide for Democrats told Semafor it was "one of many" and dismissed it, saying, "We all get a lot of emails." But nevertheless, it could still show signs of where people on the left want the new Democratic majorities to go. Other plans outlined in the document include targeting Trump-aligned corporations, such as Tesla, Apple, Amazon, Oracle, Trump Media and World Liberty Financial. The letter also mentions Palantir's Alex Karp and Coinbase's Brian Armstrong by name, with possible hearings involving executives from OpenAI, Meta, Google, Microsoft, Oracle and others. TAX BREAKS HELPING FUEL TRUMP'S LATEST TECH PUSH JUST LANDED IN DEMS' CROSSHAIRS Other priorities include investigating Trump's personal finances, proposing congressional scrutiny of Trump's tax arrangements, cryptocurrency businesses and alleged preferential treatment of corporate donors. The document continues, urging the committees to expand federal oversight of artificial intelligence, outline investigations into AI companies and proposals to restrict algorithmic pricing, workplace surveillance and certain autonomous AI technologies. This includes investigating the Trump administration's Medicare AI program, which uses the WISeR model, employing artificial intelligence systems to screen prior authorization requests in traditional Medicare to determine whether specific outpatient procedures are medically necessary. The document adds that committees should increase scrutiny of private businesses through hearings, document demands and potential legislation targeting major employers, landlords, insurers and technology companies. TRUMP CMS FACES BIPARTISAN PUSHBACK OVER MEDICARE PROPOSAL TIED TO BIDEN-ERA DRUG PRICING LAW "We just had a midterm election where Democratic candidates across the country made the point that corporations have been doing very well for the last several years, while the typical family has been getting squeezed with higher prices and worse service," Bharat Ramamurti, a former Deputy Director of the National Economic Council who coordinated with Groundwork on the dossier, told Fox News Digital. "The oversight agenda is about trying to understand and figure out what exactly are these corporations doing, who's responsible for these decisions, and then what, as policymakers, can folks in Congress do about it," Ramamurti added. Pages later in the document also mention plans for restricting corporate ownership and pricing practices. It discusses measures aimed at institutional housing investors, algorithmic rent-setting and corporate pricing systems. The document proposes investigating a reported settlement involving Trump's tax audits, including requesting information about the Chicago tower audit and questioning Treasury officials.

Jay dedicated his life to serving West Virginia and our nation, leaving a lasting legacy. He was always a true gentleman who treated me with respect, kindness, and encouragement.

Republicans spent over $27 million trying to elect former pro football player Jay Feely. That worked out to more than $187 per vote. Democrats flipped the seat for just $17.5 million. For roughly $103 per vote, emergency room physician Amish Shah will replace Rep. David Schweikert, R-Fountain Hills, who gave up the seat in a losing bid for governor.  Shah’s victory margin stood at 7 percentage points Thursday when the Associated Press declared him the winner. The cost-per-vote calculations by Cronkite News include fundraising tallies for each candidate and OpenSecrets data on outside spending, divided by vote totals reported through the evening of Nov. 5. Money did help carry the day in the other Arizona district that Democrats flipped. Republicans put $19.6 million into Tucson Rep. Juan Ciscomani’s bid for a third term. Democrats poured more than $26 million into the district. Their nominee, JoAnna Mendoza, a Marine veteran, will be sworn in on Jan. 3. She held an 8-point lead when AP called that race Thursday. The cost-per-vote gap: $142 per vote for Ciscomani, $160 per vote for the winner. Ciscomani’s backers included Elon Musk, whose America PAC spent just over $500,000 on the race.  In another contest that remained too close to call, Rep. Eli Crane, R-Oro Valley, and his allies outspent former Navajo Nation president Jonathan Nez and his allies by almost 2-1, according to campaign finance reports – $19.2 million to $10.4 million. Two days after the polls closed, Crane led by about 5,300 votes out of nearly 200,000, with 10% of ballots yet to be counted.  Crane’s cost-per-vote was $129. If Nez can come from behind and win, he’ll have nabbed the seat at a deep discount: $73 per vote.  Most of the outside spending to support Crane, about $5 million, came from No Going Back PAC. The Trump-affiliated group spent $192 million supporting Republican candidates nationwide. The biggest outside spender for Nez was HMP, the super PAC focused on electing House Democrats, which pumped about $1.4 million into the contest. While spending doesn’t ensure a win, it’s certainly vital, said Ian Vandewalker, senior counsel and manager of elections and government at the Brennan Center for Justice, a law and policy institute at New York University’s law school.  “There’s an arms race mentality or pattern that has been happening for a long time,” he said. “As long as there are wealthy people and special interests who want certain things out of government, and they have a bunch of money to burn, they’re going to spend a lot of money on elections.” The Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens United ruling opened the door to unlimited political spending by corporations, unions and wealthy individuals. Super PACs spent $16.2 million to help elect Feely, according to FEC filings. Of that, $9 million came from a Trump-affiliated group called Safety & Affordability PAC Inc. Other support came from PACs funded by artificial intelligence executives and focused on electing conservatives.  “Outside groups are probably more willing to spend money when they know that there’s super close races, and you can kind of make an impact,” said Thom Reilly, a professor at Arizona State University’s School of Public Affairs and co-director of ASU’s Center for an Independent and Sustainable Democracy.  HMP spent $6.4 million on Shah’s effort – more than the $5.7 million his own campaign committee raised. “There are still limits on how much an individual can give directly to a candidate, but the same donor can give them millions of dollars into a super PAC working to either elect them or go against them,” said Bela Sullivan, policy and research associate at Issue One, a left-leaning think tank. At Environmental Defense Action Fund – whose EDF Action Votes PAC spent $400,000 hoping to unseat Crane and $755,000 to help Shah – Anabel Maldonado, the group’s Southwest director of political programs, said candidates don’t need to match their rivals dollar for dollar to be competitive. “It doesn’t matter how much money that they outspend us (by),” she said. “If you don’t have the right message, you will never win the voters.” Safety & Affordability PAC INC. spent $1.2 million on Ciscomani, and America PAC, Elon Musk’s super PAC, spent half a million. Reilly, whose research covers election dynamics, said most voters are more motivated by their personal economic circumstances than by the messages all that campaign money buys.  “The political spending that we see in Arizona and nationally, I think, doesn’t really necessarily align with voters’ priorities,” he said.

John Fetterman and Sen.-elect Abdul El-Sayed could complicate efforts to unite the caucus in the 120th Congress. The two Democrats traded personal insults throughout the 2026 election cycle, clashing over U.S. military assistance to Israel, Medicare for All and the ideological direction of the Democratic Party. "You put one ogre on a pike, and then everyone else gets the message," El-Sayed, D-Mich., reportedly told progressive donors during a private Zoom call, arguing that challenging moderate Democrats in primary elections would send a message to the party's establishment. CHUCK SCHUMER AFTER SWEEPING DEMOCRATIC MIDTERM VICTORIES: 'I'LL BE RE-ELECTED AS MAJORITY LEADER' Fetterman, D-Pa., has been an outspoken supporter of U.S. military assistance to Israel, including funding for its Iron Dome missile defense system, and he has backed military action against Hezbollah and Iran. El-Sayed, meanwhile, campaigned against the war in Iran and opposed taxpayer-funded military operations and U.S. aid to Israel. A longtime Democratic Senate staffer told Fox News Digital that they would "not be surprised" if tensions emerged between the two lawmakers but expressed confidence that their loyalty to the Democratic Party would outweigh their personal disagreements. FETTERMAN CLAIMS DEMOCRATIC ‘BIG TENT’ HAS MORE ROOM FOR ‘AMERICA DESERVED 9/11’ THAN ISRAEL SUPPORT The staffer added that Fetterman has faced criticism from other members of the Senate Democratic caucus, though those disagreements have not necessarily prevented lawmakers from working together. During a televised primary debate, El-Sayed confirmed that his "ogre on a pike" remark was directed at Fetterman, accusing the Pennsylvania senator of having "abandoned his elected values" through his support for U.S. military assistance to Israel. DEMS CLASH OVER AIPAC MONEY, ‘OGRE’ ATTACK AND ELECTABILITY DURING CRUCIAL SENATE DEBATE El-Sayed later doubled down on his criticism, arguing against funding foreign defense systems such as Israel's Iron Dome while American schools struggle with limited resources. Fetterman fired back, referring to El-Sayed as the "Pontiac Platner" in an apparent jab at the Maine Democrat Graham Platner, who dropped out of his Senate race this election season under the weight of multiple scandals. FETTERMAN 'DARES' EL-SAYED TO STICK WITH PIKER, CLAIMS MICHIGAN NOMINEE HAS 'LITTLE MAN SYNDROME ENERGY' The Pennsylvania senator also accused El-Sayed of seeking to become the "head of our emerging pro-Hamas wing here in the party," criticizing his positions on Israel. El-Sayed's campaign appearances with left-wing streamer Hasan Piker, who previously said "America deserved 9/11," further fueled the dispute, prompting Fetterman to publicly condemn Piker's remarks. The tensions escalated after El-Sayed narrowly defeated Rep. Haley Stevens, D-Mich., in the Democratic primary by less than one percentage point. Days before the general election, reports emerged that El-Sayed's campaign had barred Stevens from attending its final campaign events, drawing another sharp rebuke from Fetterman. MICHIGAN DEMOCRAT HALEY STEVENS BACKS EL-SAYED AFTER NARROW PRIMARY DEFEAT, CALLS SOCIALISM ‘DANGEROUS’ "Rep. Haley Stevens simply held Abdul El-Sayed accountable for his views on Israel and fixation with Jewish money. El-Sayed is going after a woman and banning her from campaign events for having an opinion," Fetterman told Jewish Insider. "He has the worst case of little man syndrome I've ever seen," Fetterman added. DEM INSURGENT TURNS ON THE CHARM WITH PARTY ESTABLISHMENT AS SCHUMER LEAVES BITTER FEUD HANGING Despite the public hostility, the Democratic Senate staffer's assessment suggests the two lawmakers could ultimately set aside their differences to advance their party's legislative priorities. The feud could nevertheless present an early test for Schumer, D-N.Y., as he seeks to maintain unity among Senate Democrats, particularly on divisive issues such as U.S. foreign policy and the party's progressive agenda. El-Sayed and Fetterman did not respond to Fox News Digital's requests for comment. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aeddfc669fbdcb35dec3a69 'We didn't expect this': Texas Democrats stunned as blue wave topples GOP stronghold te 2026-11-06T14:10:14.471Z 'We didn't expect this': Texas Democrats stunned as blue wave topples GOP stronghold AUSTIN, Texas — As the Democrats’ blue wave began to slam into Texas, Richard Torres, a Texan who has voted blue his entire life, kept peering at the results pouring in on reporters’ screens all around him. And when it was announced Texas state Rep. James Talarico had toppled Ken Paxton, he sat down to take it in. Torres was the former chair of the Williamson County Democratic Party, where Talarico grew up and attended high school in Round Rock, Texas. He never thought that Texas Republicans would be swept away by the oncoming blue wave. TEXAS' RED WALL FACING ITS BIGGEST THREAT IN DECADES AS REPUBLICANS SCRAMBLE TO DEFEND IT "We started seeing some changes, but not what we expected tonight," Torres told Fox News Digital. "We didn't expect this tonight." When asked why a deep-red stronghold like the Lone Star State had become so rapidly blue, Torres said that it started at the top with President Donald Trump and should serve as a message to GOP candidates and officials across the state. "I think it sends a message that they're on the wrong track, and they've been for a while, but they won't accept the problems we have with the president," Torres said. "They're totally supporting him. I don't know why." "But they don't see the problems that we're having in this country with all the things that have happened with the war going on and things of this type," he continued. "And they just seem to support him on it. This is a referendum against Trump." STATE OF PLAY: BLUE WAVE SWEEPS DEMOCRATS INTO POWER, WITH KEY RACES STILL HANGING IN BALANCE Talarico and several other Democratic candidates, including Gov.-elect Gina Hinojosa, shattered the GOP’s grip on Texas, serving Republicans in Congress a stiff blow as their majorities in both chambers rapidly evaporated Tuesday night. And the incoming lawmaker didn’t just squeak by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. He beat the Trump-backed candidate, who was not the first choice of Republicans in Washington, by over 12 percentage points, or well over 1 million votes, in a state that Trump won in 2024 by nearly 14 points. To secure that win, Talarico needed to capture Republicans and Democrats in Texas. One of those Republicans, James, told Fox News Digital that he had always voted for the GOP until this election. TEXAS SENATE VICTOR JAMES TALARICO LAYS OUT COMMON GROUND WITH TRUMP, VOWS TO 'WORK TOGETHER' "I've been a Republican my whole life, but I'm voting Democratic this year because I think we need to," James said. "The Republicans have lost their way, I believe." While the optimism at the watch party was palpable, be it through the pumping music or over half a dozen mobile bars with lines dozens of people deep, there was still a cautious anxiety among some voters. Particularly after Democrats had gotten so close to flipping the Senate seat before in 2018, when former Texas state Rep. Beto O’Rourke gave Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, a run for his money. O’Rourke would end up losing by roughly two points, but the exuberance that turned to heartbreak wasn’t soon forgotten by the Lone Star State’s Democratic voters. As results began to roll in and the crowd’s energy began to explode, Beverly, another longtime Texas resident and voter, said Tuesday night was bigger than Texas. "This feels like a now or never moment in the entire United States," she said. "We either turn things around or we might as well kiss it all goodbye."

The NBA legend says you won't have to worry about him turning into one of these former athletes who goes broke down the road. During an appearance on the "Dinner Party," Shaq Diesel, 54, revealed how he'll be on a fixed income when he turns 55 in March, but he definitely won't be broke in retirement. "I would always see this filthy rich guy. I'm talking rich, Four Seasons, Rolls-Royce. I asked him, I was like, ‘How do you stay rich?’" Shaq told the Dinner Party podcast hosts. "He said, ‘Shaq, if you have $100, you want to save $50, but if you want to be wealthy, you play with $25 and you save $75’. So after I heard him say that, I would start to get endorsement checks and not even turn them in. I had so much money coming in, I put a lot into annuities." On March 6, 2027, those annuity checks start hitting Shaq's account. How much are we talking? Let's just say Shaq's not going to be sweating Social Security checks at 62.

What will they do with their newfound power? te 2026-11-06T14:10:11.075Z Democrats romped in state elections. What will they do with their newfound power? Pennsylvania state Rep. Malcom Kenyatta, a Democrat, speaks Wednesday at a party celebrating Democratic control of state government in Harrisburg. Across the country, Democrats flipped hundreds of state legislative seats, won control of several GOP-held chambers, broke veto-proof supermajorities and won a majority of governorships. (Photo by Whitney Downard/Pennsylvania Capital-Star) The blue wave that swept across Tuesday’s midterm election will deliver Democrats new power over state government, giving them the opportunity to advance long-sought policy changes. Democrats flipped hundreds of seats, won control of several GOP-held chambers, broke veto-proof supermajorities and won a majority of governorships for the first time since 2010. Democratic lawmakers from multiple states pledged to use their new statehouse power to attack rising prices, protect reproductive rights, pass new gun safety measures and grow the housing supply. The changed landscape also gives state Democratic leaders more power to oppose the agenda of President Donald Trump, said Marc Farinella, senior advisor to the University of Chicago’s Harris School of Public Policy. That may mean opposing Trump’s immigration enforcement efforts, Farinella said, or bolstering state funding of Medicaid and food stamps, both of which have faced significant federal cuts under Trump. Legislating will prove much easier in states with newly won Democratic trifectas, where the party controls both chambers and the governor’s office. Those states include Arizona, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. But newly divided governments in other states — Iowa, Ohio, Georgia, Texas — could result in gridlock. Following the midterms, state legislatures will see their biggest leadership shakeup in years, as the National Conference of State Legislatures expects nearly half of state chambers to have new leaders next session. “None of us have ever been in a majority, so it’s a big learning curve,” said Arizona state Rep. Nancy Gutierrez, assistant House minority leader. She said Democrats, who will control Phoenix for the first time in 60 years, are connecting with their counterparts from other states, such as Colorado, that have swung from red to blue. The Pennsylvania state Senate flipped to Democratic control for the first time since 1978, handing the party a resounding trifecta after Gov. Josh Shapiro sailed to reelection. Already, Shapiro and Democratic state lawmakers have pledged to revive a slew of policies that had previously passed the state House but died in the Republican-controlled Senate. Those include raising the state’s minimum wage to $15 an hour, codifying abortion rights, passing a law to allow survivors of sexual abuse to sue their abusers and increasing funding for mass transit. “I think here in Pennsylvania we made very, very clear at the state level and the federal level that we are rejecting Donald Trump’s policies and we want to see costs come down,” Shapiro said Wednesday. “And now you’ve got an opportunity to see that happen in Harrisburg and in Washington.” At the same time, Farinella said, this week’s “historically forceful rebuke of Trump and his agenda” will prompt an as yet undetermined response from Republicans. After a decade of near-total control by Trump and the MAGA movement, the decisive GOP losses could free some Republicans to return to more centrist policies, he said. “To me, it’s the big outstanding question coming out of the election,” Farinella said. “How will the congressional Republicans and how will the Republicans in state legislatures now feel about the latitude they have or don’t have in terms of their own policy preferences?” Progress or gridlock? In New Hampshire, Democrats pulled off a stunning upset, flipping control of both the state House and Senate. Though Republican Gov. Kelly Ayotte won reelection, Democrats appear to have secured veto-proof supermajorities. Democratic state Rep. Christal Lloyd said she plans to focus on addressing federal cuts to Medicaid through state funding and address education funding to help alleviate growing local property tax burdens. But she said Democrats won’t just rush to push through progressive bills. “We want to make lasting changes, positive changes, and we want to write good legislation that helps our constituents and helps their lives,” Lloyd told Stateline. “And it’s up to us to live up to the trust that the voters put in our hands.” While the governor won her race, her power will be greatly diminished by legislative supermajorities. “If she tries to veto anything, we’ve got the supermajority,” Lloyd said. “But that’s not to say we won’t work with the other side. We’re going to negotiate where possible.” Democrats will also wield new power in Concord after winning total control of the state executive committee, a unique-to-New-Hampshire body that serves as a check on the governor, approving or rejecting state contracts and vetting gubernatorial nominees. That body has pledged to immediately focus on funding Planned Parenthood and holding the scandal-ridden state Supreme Court accountable. “There is no rubber stamp for the governor,” said state Rep. Luz Bay, a Democrat newly elected to the council. In other states, the new legislative mix may produce gridlock. In North Carolina, Democrats already controlled the governor’s office and on Tuesday night they flipped control of the state House, though Republicans held onto the state Senate with a two-seat margin. It’s possible some Republican senators will join Democrats to approve legislation, said Chris Cooper, a professor of political science and public affairs at Western Carolina University in Cullowhee, North Carolina. But he wouldn’t count on it. “I think the greater possibility really is that we see very little, that we just see stalemate coming out of Raleigh and if you’re a Republican, maybe that’s not so bad,” Cooper told NC Newsline on Wednesday. The GOP has already ticked off many of the items on its legislative wish list since gaining power in 2011, he said. And Democratic Gov. Josh Stein has seen a dozen of his vetoes overridden by the GOP-controlled legislature. “If less happens in Raleigh and you’re a conservative Republican, I’m not sure you’re that upset about that,” Cooper said. “It’s the Democrats who still wouldn’t be able to act.” In Texas, where Democrats hadn’t won a statewide office since 1994, they swept all statewide offices and flipped control of the state House. Gov.-elect Gina Hinojosa has pledged to declare a “high-cost emergency” in Texas and to issue executive orders to suspend the state gas and diesel taxes and to freeze electricity rates. But Senate Republicans, who held the upper chamber Tuesday, have promised to oppose her. “Texas stands as long as the Texas Senate Republican caucus holds the line,” Republican state Sen. Charles Schwertner posted on X Tuesday night. “We will.” Focusing on pocketbooks In Arizona, Democratic lawmakers say they’re focused squarely on affordability. “In Arizona, lots of people have lost their SNAP (food stamp) benefits, and lots of people are having a really hard time affording their rent and their mortgages,” said Gutierrez. She said her caucus will aim to ban grocery stores from using dynamic pricing to gouge consumers; control rent hikes; and try to make homes more affordable by placing restrictions on corporate property purchases, which can drive up prices. Arizona Democrats also want to constrain a state program that allows K-12 students to receive public funding to pay for private school tuition. In Missouri, Republicans are questioning their legislative agenda after losing 16 House seats in their worst performance since the Watergate scandal. The GOP maintained its majority but lost its supermajority status. “We’re in a total reassessment,” Rep. Darin Chappell, who was selected as the House majority leader, told The Missouri Independent.  Other Republican lawmakers said they needed to focus more on voters’ affordability priorities and less on legislative pet projects. “People have been speaking loud and clear that they want us to focus on issues that affect their pocketbooks,” said state Rep. Israel Baeza, a Republican. Major Republican losses in Utah deprived the GOP of a legislative supermajority for the first time since 1993. While Republicans maintain total control of state government, this week’s “blue tsunami” could cause leadership shakeups and reshape policy priorities, the Utah News Dispatch reported. Democratic state lawmakers must act quickly to capitalize on their momentum, said Gaby Goldstein, the founder and president of State Futures, a nonprofit that coordinates hundreds of Democratic lawmakers across the states. She said states have the ability to immediately alleviate affordability pressures by bringing down the costs of prescription drugs, erasing medical debt and addressing labor issues such as minimum wages. “These are policies that have a big, immediate impact on people’s lives, and can tell that broader story about why people’s lives are different when Democrats are in power,” she said. After winning control of both chambers of Congress, Democrats are poised to launch investigations and increase oversight of the Trump administration. But Goldstein said state Democrats must deliver on the affordability promises they made to get into power. “It needs to result in people’s lives feeling appreciably better if Democrats want to hold on to power in ‘28,” she said. “At the federal level, the story has to roll up from what Democrats have done at the state level because oversight hearings are going to feel good, but they’re not putting any money in your pocket.” Stateline reporter Kevin Hardy can be reached at khardy@stateline.org.

And judging by the reaction in some Republican circles, so is the Soviet Union. There is just one problem. Americans embracing socialism may not be talking about the socialism Republicans think they’re talking about. MAJORITY OF AMERICANS BROADLY REJECT SOCIALIST IDEOLOGY EVEN AS FAR LEFT SURGES TO POWER And if we don’t understand that, we’re going to miss one of the most important lessons of this election. I’m a researcher and strategist. I spend my life studying what people believe, why they believe it, and how the same words can mean wildly different things to different people. And right now, there may be no word in American politics more misunderstood than socialism. To many Republicans, socialism means communism. Government control. Breadlines. Moscow. A dreary existence in which everyone is equally miserable except the people running the government. To many Democrats, it means something else entirely. Affordable healthcare. A decent retirement. A fair shot at getting ahead. An economy where billionaires don’t get every break while everyone else gets the bill. Same word. Different movie. And the polling is remarkable. SOCIALISM SURGES AMONG DEMOCRATS AS PARTY LEADERS REJECT DSA AGENDA: ‘PACK OF FOOLS’ According to Gallup, 65% of Democrats have a positive view of socialism. So do 45% of independents. Only 14% of Republicans agree. But here’s the really interesting part. When Gallup asked Americans what they actually liked about socialism, Democrats and independents talked about access to basic services, economic equality, and a stronger safety net. They weren’t describing the Soviet Union. They were describing a country where ordinary people can afford to live. Now, that doesn’t mean socialism is simply another word for fairness. It is a real economic philosophy with real policy implications, and Americans have legitimate disagreements about what government should own, control, regulate, and provide. But if we’re going to have that argument, shouldn’t we first make sure we’re having the same conversation? Because right now, one side is warning about Vladimir Lenin while the other is worried about the price of lettuce. And the lettuce is winning. The irony of it all is that Trump messaged this before the Democrats did. He understood something fundamental about American voters in 2016. People were angry. LIBERAL-CITY RESIDENT HESITATES WHEN PRESSED ON BELIEFS: 'I HADN'T REALLY THOUGHT ABOUT SOCIALISM THAT WAY' They believed the system was rigged. They believed the powerful were getting richer while everyone else was falling behind. They believed Washington had become a private club where the members took care of themselves and sent the bill to the rest of the country. Trump promised to drain the swamp. He promised to fight for the forgotten man and woman. He promised to take on an establishment that had stopped listening. It was an extraordinarily powerful message. And now Democrats are making a strikingly similar argument about an economy that favors the wealthy, a political system that protects insiders, and ordinary Americans who can’t seem to get ahead. The vocabulary is different. The policy prescriptions are different. But the underlying frustration sounds awfully familiar. The swamp is still there. The rent is still due. The grocery bill is still too high. And voters are still asking the same question. Who’s fighting for me? That is the question both parties should be trying to answer. SOCIALISM'S GROWING APPEAL MEETS AN AWKWARD REALITY CHECK ON COLLEGE CAMPUS Not whether they can attach the most frightening label to the other side. Not whether they can win a debate about economic philosophy that most Americans haven’t had since freshman year. But whether they can make life more affordable, opportunity more accessible, and government more accountable. Because here’s what politicians consistently underestimate. Voters don’t experience the economy as an ideology. They experience it at the grocery store. At the pharmacy. When the mortgage payment comes due. When their children graduate from college with debt and move back into their childhood bedrooms. DEMOCRATS SAY THEY'LL MAKE LIFE AFFORDABLE. YOUR WALLET MAY DISAGREE You can tell someone they’re living under capitalism or socialism or democratic socialism. They’re still going to want to know why a carton of eggs costs so much. And before Republicans assume that attacking socialism is sufficient to win back voters, they might consider what those voters believe they’re supporting. You can oppose government ownership of industry and still believe Americans deserve affordable healthcare. You can support free enterprise and still think the economic system is tilted toward the wealthy. You can believe deeply in capitalism and still wonder why working hard doesn’t seem to get you as far as it used to. LIBERAL HOT SPOT RESIDENTS CAN’T AGREE ON WHAT SOCIALISM MEANS AS FAR-LEFT MOVEMENTS GAINS STEAM These aren’t necessarily contradictions. They’re the complicated, sometimes messy beliefs of real people. And they are exactly why persuasion remains possible. The lesson of this election isn’t that America has suddenly become socialist. It isn’t that capitalism has lost. JONATHAN TURLEY: SOCIALISM IS BACK IN STYLE AND DEMOCRATS ARE BUYING THE PITCH And it certainly isn’t that every candidate who talks about fairness has discovered some magical formula for political success. It’s that the argument over what fairness means, and who is delivering it, is very much alive. And that argument cannot be won simply by shouting a word louder. There is an important lesson here for Democrats, too. A positive view of socialism is not a blank check for every policy proposed in its name. Americans can support a stronger safety net while remaining deeply skeptical of government bureaucracy, higher taxes, or promises that sound wonderful until someone explains how much they cost. The label doesn’t do the work. The idea has to. That’s the part I hope both parties understand. For Republicans, the challenge is to explain how their vision of free enterprise can deliver the affordability and opportunity people are demanding. For Democrats, the challenge is to demonstrate that their promises of fairness can produce real results without creating a whole new set of problems. Neither side gets to skip the hard part. DEPROGRAMMED: SHE WAS ALL IN FOR SOCIALISM - UNTIL THE 'RED FLAGS' BECAME IMPOSSIBLE TO IGNORE Because Americans aren’t asking for a lecture on economic theory. They’re asking for a fair shot. And here’s the irony. The political language that helped propel Donald Trump to the White House—fighting for forgotten Americans, challenging powerful insiders, and taking on a rigged system—is now being echoed by some of the very Democrats who built their political identities opposing him. Different messengers. Different solutions. Familiar frustration. Perhaps the most important question coming out of this election isn’t whether America is embracing socialism. Perhaps it’s whether either party fully understands why so many Americans feel the economy isn’t working for them. Because you don’t defeat an idea by attacking its name. You defeat it by offering people something better. And you don’t win lasting support by telling voters what they should be afraid of. You earn it by giving them something to believe in. CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINION The American people aren’t asking for a return to Moscow. They’re asking for a country where hard work pays off, opportunity isn’t reserved for the well-connected, and getting ahead doesn’t feel like winning the lottery. Call that fairness. Call it opportunity. Call it the American Dream. Just don’t make the mistake of thinking that winning an argument over the word socialism means you’ve answered the people who find it appealing. Because the next election won’t be decided in a political science classroom. It will be decided by Americans who want to know whether their lives are getting better. And they are going to listen to whoever has a convincing answer.

Dutch even saved Hudson from elimination during the Call Your Shot Gauntlet at Bound for Glory last month. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK PRO WRESTLING COVERAGE The stars seemed to be aligned for Hudson as she made her way to the ring. Vincent and Dutch asked her to recite the words they were saying, "I am righteous. For we are many. I am righteous. For we are many. … While you were making up your mind, someone else already did." Hudson said the last line with some trepidation as she learned in that moment she wasn’t about to join the group. Dutch stepped aside and behind the brooding figure was former Knockouts world champion Xia Brookside. Brookside attacked Hudson and hit her with a Dark Side DDT. It appeared Hudson was left by the wayside and Brookside was the newest member of The Righteous – much to the chagrin of the fans in the arena. Hudson wasn’t finished with her night.

"Well, I don’t quite know how I get myself into these situations and I actually don’t know why it’s so hard for me to make any friends out here. I just feel like no matter how hard I try, I don’t have a home out here. I just really, really don’t want to come home yet." Feeling down and out, Hudson found someone in her corner. She hung up the phone and found a note taped to one of the trailers in the parking lot. The note read, "Play with Meeee," sealed with a kiss. She then found a dollhouse. It was Taryn Terrell luring Hudson to her team. Terrell is in her third stint with TNA. She initially joined The Dollhouse group in 2015. In her tenure at TNA, she’s held the TNA Knockouts Championship once and was named Knockout of the Year in 2014.

You might want to hang on to it. Researchers at UCLA have figured out how to turn an aging smartphone into the brain of a small walking robot. It's called PhoneBot, and it can walk on two legs, follow people and even get back up after falling face down. The most surprising part? The researchers estimate the robot's hardware costs about $400, excluding the phone. So, that forgotten smartphone could have a pretty interesting second life.

GOOGLE TURNS OLD PHONES INTO CLOUD SERVERS PhoneBot comes from UCLA's Robotics and Mechanisms Laboratory, also known as RoMeLa. The team built a miniature humanoid robot that stands about 19 inches tall and weighs roughly four pounds, including the smartphone attached to its body. Instead of developing an expensive custom computer, researchers used technology already inside an Android phone. The robot has 13 motorized joints, with six in each leg and another that lets its upper body rotate. That extra movement allows the smartphone's camera to turn toward someone while the robot's feet stay planted. The researchers’ goal is to make humanoid robotics more affordable for schools and research teams that cannot spend thousands of dollars on specialized machines. Think about everything your smartphone already does. It can recognize objects through its camera and detect movement using built-in sensors. It also has enough processing power to run sophisticated software. PhoneBot puts those capabilities to work. An Android app uses the phone's motion sensors to help the robot maintain its balance. Meanwhile, the camera helps it recognize and track people. The phone also runs an artificial intelligence-powered walking controller that tells the robot how to move. Those instructions travel over Wi-Fi to a small computer inside the robot, which communicates with the motors. The smartphone has no physical electrical connection to the robot's hardware. That design makes it easier to swap phones without rewiring the machine. Researchers trained PhoneBot's walking system in computer simulations before testing it on the actual robot. They also developed a way to improve how evenly it uses both legs. As a result, PhoneBot can walk on flat surfaces and stand up from a face-down position. For something powered largely by an old smartphone, that's quite an accomplishment. Here's something I found especially interesting. UCLA didn't need the latest expensive smartphone to make PhoneBot work. In fact, the researchers successfully tested its core functions on four different Android devices, including an Honor 9 released back in 2017. The other models included a Samsung Galaxy A16 5G and two Motorola Moto G phones from 2024 and 2025. Researchers purchased the three prepaid models for roughly $50 to $90 each. Those were the prices reported during testing, rather than guaranteed prices today. All four phones handled the essential functions, including movement control and camera-based recognition. However, the older Honor 9 could not run one of the robot's mapping features because the required Google services were unavailable on that device in the United States. That means you cannot assume every Android phone will work. Still, the tests suggest you may not need an expensive new phone to run a capable little robot. A WHEELED ROBOT MAY BEAT HUMANOIDS INTO YOUR HOME Yes, at least within the limits of what UCLA has demonstrated. PhoneBot can use its smartphone camera to identify a person and adjust its movement to follow them. It can also rotate its upper body to keep someone in view. The robot supports conversational interaction, too. However, there's an important limitation. Its current system uses a separate laptop to process speech and generate AI responses. The smartphone records your voice and plays the response through its speaker. Before you start thinking about having PhoneBot clean your house, there's something else you should know. It doesn't have arms. That means it cannot pick up your laundry or carry groceries. Researchers also trained its walking system on flat ground, so navigating stairs and uneven surfaces remains a challenge. For now, PhoneBot is best viewed as an experimental platform. UCLA has demonstrated what it can do under research conditions, but it hasn't established that the robot can independently navigate a typical home. If you're comfortable with electronics and robotics, PhoneBot could become a pretty interesting project. UCLA has developed it as an open-source research platform and published hardware designs and building resources. The official PhoneBot website at phonebot.dev/ provides information about the robot's design, components and assembly process. The published hardware materials are available for noncommercial use under a Creative Commons license. There's an important distinction, though, between having the hardware plans and being able to build a fully working robot. The project website provides hardware designs and assembly resources but does not clearly offer a download for the complete Android app and trained walking software. Although UCLA describes PhoneBot as an open-source platform, anyone hoping to reproduce its capabilities should first confirm that the necessary software is available. And there's another consideration: the $400 price tag. It's an approximate hardware cost, and it doesn't include the smartphone. Depending on what equipment you already have, you may also need access to a 3D printer and tools for assembly. Shipping and other expenses could push the total higher. You'll also need the technical skills to put everything together and configure the software. So, don't expect to download an app and watch your old phone suddenly sprout legs. There's real engineering involved. Humanoid robots are getting a lot of attention, but building one remains expensive. Some small research models cost several thousand dollars. More advanced systems can cost considerably more. PhoneBot takes advantage of hardware that millions of people already own. By letting a smartphone handle much of the sensing and computing, researchers can avoid buying some specialized components. That helps bring the overall cost down. The approach could also make robotics more accessible to students. Instead of requiring a large research budget, a smaller team could experiment with a relatively inexpensive walking machine. They could test new software or explore ways to improve movement without building every electronic component from scratch. The UCLA team already has ideas for what comes next. Researchers want to improve PhoneBot's ability to handle uneven terrain and eventually give it lightweight arms. They're also exploring ways to run more conversational AI directly on the smartphone, which could reduce the need for a separate computer. Those improvements are still future goals. Even so, PhoneBot offers a promising starting point for building more affordable humanoid robots. You probably won't see PhoneBot on store shelves anytime soon. But this research shows how much useful technology may still be inside a smartphone you've stopped using. A phone that feels outdated for daily use could still handle surprisingly demanding tasks. If you're interested in robotics, PhoneBot could eventually offer a more affordable way to experiment with walking machines. Meanwhile, for families with kids who love technology, an accessible version of this project could make for a fascinating hands-on learning experience. And if you've been thinking about getting rid of your old Android phone, this research offers another reason to consider what it might still be capable of. Of course, building a robot won't be for everyone. You can also sell, donate or recycle your old phone. Before you do, check out our article on securely getting rid of your old cell phone to make sure your personal information doesn't go along with it. I love the idea that a smartphone sitting forgotten in a drawer could become the brain of a walking robot. We've gotten so used to replacing our phones every few years that we sometimes overlook how powerful these devices still are. What UCLA has done with PhoneBot makes me wonder how many other uses we're missing. Now, let's be realistic. This little guy isn't ready to take over household chores, and putting one together requires some serious know-how. But the price is what caught my attention. When researchers can build a walking robot with roughly $400 in additional hardware, it opens the door to possibilities that once seemed out of reach. I'd love to see someone turn this into an affordable kit that families could build together. That could be a great way to get kids excited about engineering.

Carville spoke with a panel on Thursday’s episode of the "Politics War Room" podcast about the Democrats' midterm victories before responding to a statement from Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., declaring that "DEI is back." "I really like him. He's a very personable man. I think these people are all wrong," Carville reacted. "They tried DEI. The country hated it. Just hated it. It cost us seats." Carville agreed with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's, D-N.Y., comments dismissing "Woke 1" and argued that returning to those policies would take the party in the wrong direction. CARVILLE SAYS ONE DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST'S 'LUNACY OF THE HIGHEST LEVEL' POLICY COULD HAUNT SWING-STATE DEMS  "The DEI people asked me to honor your identity above your humanity. I cannot do that. To me, you're a human being first. And if we bring this bulls--- language back, we're going to pay for it," he said. After the 2024 presidential election, Carville warned that the "stench" of woke politics would cling to the party like a foul smell on a shirt. While he said Democrats had made progress since then, he lamented that some were returning to those policies. "We're finally washing the stench of defund the police, communities of color, or every idiotic jack-- academic word that [they] could think of. And we got rid of it. And AOC is right. Woke one was some crazy s---. Let's all go back and do it," he said. "Let's have progressive taxation. Let's have pluralism in America. Let's get out of Iran. Let's open rural hospitals. Okay, these are things that we can agree on." Carville explained that he is a liberal, not a progressive, and wants to help rural Americans who may feel abandoned by the Democratic Party. "I think rural America is the most forgotten part of America," he said, warning that his fellow Democrats need to be "talking about the problems of rural America or rural hospitals or rural education or rural libraries or anything else." JAMES CARVILLE WARNS FAR-LEFT CANDIDATES 'TOO HARD-HEADED' TO KNOW THEY'RE UNPOPULAR "And I think to the extent that this whole thing strikes people as another coastal people trying to impose something on the rest of the country, and the rest of the country doesn't want this, and now we're talking about bringing it back?" he warned.  Democrat Dan Turrentine, a co-host of "The Huddle," told Fox News Digital that Democrats largely abandoned social issues leading up to the midterms and focused on the economy and tackling "corruption." "Not a single new member from a competitive state or district ran on restoring DEI. Quite the contrary, they stayed away from relitigating settled social issues and focused like a laser beam on costs, chaos, and corruption," Turrentine wrote. "Many people on our side are considering running for president and, in an effort to create a spark, will say controversial things to select audiences. The winning candidate will be focused on a broad coalition and keep the main things the main thing."

The study found that from Sept. 8, the start of Season 30, through Nov. 3, "The View" invited 21 liberal guests who were either critical of President Donald Trump or the Republican Party, with Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, being the lone conservative guest. Four of the guests classified as liberal were politicians: Gov. Andy Beshear, D-Ky.; Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz.; Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who appeared on the show the day before Election Day alongside liberal podcast host Kara Swisher. Although a retiring Republican senator, Tillis was included in the liberal guest count due to being invited on to discuss his anti-Trump book, "How to Lose Friends and Antagonize Presidents."  STEPHEN A SMITH DOUBLES DOWN ON TRUMP DINNER, CHALLENGES CRITICS BY ASKING, 'WHAT THE F--- ARE YOU DOING?' Tillis has been vocal in calling for Secretary of War Pete Hegseth's firing, and has publicly broken with the president over the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill. In his book, Tillis wrote that he hoped Republicans would learn from midterm losses, which he predicted when the book was released in early October. "What I hope is that members of my party take the loss and learn something," he wrote, according to The New York Times, "specifically that putting party affiliation — or loyalty to one man — before your own conscience never turns out well in the end." The show hosted several liberal celebrities as well, including Maisie Williams, Ethan Hawke, Chelsea Handler, Michael Douglas, Billy Crystal, Patricia "Ms. Pat" Williams-Lee, D.L. Hughley, Chandra Wilson, Busy Philipps, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Eisa Davis, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Sophia Bush. Neil deGrasse Tyson and Stephen A. Smith were among the other guests included in the study. Smith appeared on the show to discuss his recent White House meeting with Trump, a decision that drew criticism from the co-hosts. He defended his decision to attend. The ESPN host also criticized the president during the appearance. TRUMP SPILLS DETAILS ABOUT DINNER WITH BILL MAHER, STEPHEN A SMITH AND KID ROCK AT THE WHITE HOUSE According to the study's methodology, guests had to express liberal or conservative views during their appearances on the talk show to be counted in either category. "If a celebrity did not discuss politics, they were not included in the count of political leanings even if they had a history of being outspoken in the past," the MRC said. The show hosted 56 guests in total between Sept. 8 and Nov. 3, according to the study. The daytime talk show drew scrutiny in 2025 after hosting 128 liberal guests over the course of the year and just two conservatives. In 2026, the show hosted Vice President JD Vance and Alina Habba, a former legal spokesperson for Trump. The show also had several Republican fill-in co-hosts while Alyssa Farah Griffin was on maternity leave. The fill-ins included Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Savannah Chrisley, among others. In January 2026, the co-hosts interviewed former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Republican who became a fierce Trump critic. "The View" did not immediately return Fox News Digital's request for comment. 'THE VIEW' CO-HOST WARNS AGAINST VANCE INTERVIEW BECOMING 'FREE-FOR-ALL' TO SELL BOOKS MRC President David Bozell said in a statement, "ABC has learned nothing from the FCC’s continued scrutiny. 'The View' continues to insult the intelligence of the American public by passing off pure Democratic propaganda as a ‘bona fide news program.’"  "With 21 anti-Republican voices and a single conservative in the two months before the midterms, ABC’s political agenda could hardly be more obvious," he continued. "And ABC is hardly alone. The entire elitist media landscape deserves serious scrutiny. The Federal Communications Commission must hold ABC accountable for its abuse of the public airwaves for partisan political purposes." The program has faced a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) investigation over the past year. ABC has responded by defending "The View" as a "bona fide news" program. The investigation is related to the agency's crackdown on equal-time requirements for political candidates. A source at the FCC told Fox News Digital in February that the show's interview with James Talarico triggered the probe. "'The View' has been broadcasting under a bona fide news exemption granted to it more than twenty years ago ... The Commission has taken no action over the last two decades to modify or overturn the Declaratory Ruling and there is no basis for doing so now," ABC said in a petition in May in response to the FCC's probe. 'THE VIEW' EASED UP ON POLITICAL CANDIDATE BOOKINGS AMID FCC INQUIRY, REPORT SAYS The co-hosts interviewed Texas Sen.-elect James Talarico on Wednesday after he won his election in Texas and interviewed Michigan Sen.-elect Abdul El-Sayed on Thursday after his election victory. Republican Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who won her re-election campaign, is going to appear on the program next week.

WNBA FINALS TEAMS END SEASON WITH ONE FINAL NATIONAL ANTHEM SNUB AS DREAM, VALKYRIES LEAVE COURT Last night, we saw all the different colors on display our in San Francisco, where a gay man not only sang the national anthem before the Golden State Warriors game, but he also waved a tiny Pride flag during the song. A tiny rainbow flag. During the national anthem. During the actual national anthem. You wanna talk about disrespectful. This makes the WNBA nonsense from last month look like child's play. Woke 3.0 is off to a BLAZING start: It's just horrible. It's so embarrassing, and pathetic, and — again — disrespectful. Why? Why do this? Yes, it was "Pride Night" at Oracle Arena because every team has to have a Pride Night. Why? I don't know, but they do. I get it. That's fine. But "Pride Night" doesn't give you a hall pass to do whatever you want during our country's national anthem. Feel like that's off-limits to anything and everything. There's a right way to do it, and a wrong way to do it. No in between. Waving a Pride flag while singing it is the wrong way to do it. Plain and simple. Even the players were stunned by it. Look at them! They can't hold back their laughter. I'm sure Steve Kerr loved it. He's probably still giddy over Tuesday's election results. While Woke 3.0 is very clearly here, sanity still prevailed online, where this gay anthem singer was absolutely crushed for pulling this move: Why is so difficult to just ... act normal? I don't get it? Just act right. It's not asking a lot. Really, it's not. It's asking that you don't wave your tiny Pride flag during the national anthem, and smirk about it like you're taking some big stand. You're not taking a big stand. You look like an idiot. We're all mocking you.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aedd1b469fbdcb35dec36ec Cannonballs unearthed at Alamo nearly 200 years after deadly siege, yet mystery remains te 2026-11-06T13:10:12.258Z Cannonballs unearthed at Alamo nearly 200 years after deadly siege, yet mystery remains Archaeologists in San Antonio, Texas, have announced the discovery of four solid cannonballs from the Battle of the Alamo — each offering new physical evidence of the historic battle. The discovery, made along the perimeter of Alamo Church in San Antonio, was announced in late October. Officials from the Alamo Trust said the cannonballs were uncovered during ongoing archaeological excavations at the site, and that they "help us remember those individuals that were living here, during the battle," said Tiffany Lindley, head archaeologist at the Alamo Trust.  HIDDEN REVOLUTIONARY WAR BAKE HOUSE IS UNCOVERED AFTER SPENDING CENTURIES UNDERGROUND The four solid-shot cannonballs vary in size, with the smallest measuring 1.8 inches in diameter and the largest measuring 3.26 inches.  The measurements correspond to 1-pounder and 6-pounder cannons, respectively. The discovery follows two other finds made earlier this year: a 4-pounder cannonball found in March, on the eve of the battle's 190th anniversary, and a 6-pounder cannonball found in June. Photos show archaeologists carefully cleaning the newly discovered cannonballs, which appear heavily weathered and discolored. The Battle of the Alamo was one of the most important events in Texas history. EXPERTS FINALLY SOLVE MYSTERY OF TEENAGE REVOLUTIONARY WAR SOLDIER 246 YEARS AFTER HIS DEATH The engagement lasted from Feb. 23 to March 6, 1836. It saw Texian forces — including Davy Crockett and William B. Travis — hold off a much larger Mexican army. The 13-day siege ended with Mexican troops overrunning the Texian defenders, a loss that became a rallying cry for the Texas Revolution. The discoveries raise a question: Which army fired the cannonballs? Lindley of the Alamo Trust told Fox News Digital the answer is a bit complicated. REVOLUTIONARY WAR ARTIFACTS UNEARTHED AT SITE OF INFAMOUS COLONIAL AMERICAN HEIST: 'VERY SURPRISED' "We have a good idea [of] three of the cannonballs. … They were bronze cannonballs, and that was a type of material used by the Mexican army, so they may have originated with the Mexican Army," she said. She noted, however, that the cannonballs could have been picked up by the Alamo's defenders or others before the battle, so either side may have used them. Determining whether the cannonballs were connected to the battle is more straightforward. Lindley said archaeologists can link the artifacts to the battle through several lines of evidence, including the layers of soil in which they were found, plus other objects recovered nearby. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTER The same soil deposit contained musket balls and gun parts, while its depth suggested the artifacts were older than others found in layers above it. Lindley said historians helped archaeologists determine that the cannonballs were likely found near a Mexican cannon position outside the Alamo. "They would have been shooting toward the church in this area," she said. CLICK HERE FOR MORE LIFESTYLE NEWS Lindley, who said she was unaware of any solid cannonballs previously found at the site, attributed the recent discoveries largely to the size of the excavation area. TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ "We have a very large area that we're excavating. And whenever you are digging more, you have more of a chance to find more artifacts," she said. For Lindley, the discovery also puts a tangible piece of the 1836 battle into the hands of modern-day archaeologists. "Now we have a physical piece of evidence of the sacrifice" made here by those who lived during the battle, she said — "and their memories [have] lived on."

Kross and Bishop will meet in a Last Man Standing match at Cicero Stadium in Chicago. It will be Bishop’s best chance at dethroning Kross, who has been the champion since Battle Riot VIII. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK PRO WRESTLING COVERAGE "I think I’ve got a very good chance to retain," Kross told OutKick Dropkick. "However, I think it's gonna come down to who's gonna come out of this the toughest. If you're not coming in, as close to bulletproof as possible, I don't think we're gonna be able to walk out the winner on this one. Last man standing, you know what I mean? It's. This isn't about wrestling ability, this isn't about technical prowess. This is gonna be who's tougher. That's just the way I see it." Last Man Standing matches turn out to be one of the more brutal showcases in pro wrestling. The object is to do enough damage to your opponent that he is on his back for at least 10 seconds. Kross, himself, is coming off a title defense against Donovan Dijak on the go-home episode of "Fusion." Bishop and Dijak broke apart and Bishop delivered an Exit 187 to Dijak, seemingly building momentum to the championship fight. MLW'S COURT BAUER TOUTS 'HUGE YEAR' FOR COMPANY AMID MEDIA DEALS, SPLASH MOVES But that was just a part of Kross’ 2026. He admitted the year has been "painful" but also highly successful. "I never doubted it," he said of the success he’s had this year. "But with pro wrestling, it doesn't matter really what you're capable of or what you think you can do and oftentimes, it doesn't even matter, depending on what company you're in, what sort of connection you have with the audience, if they don't want to give you the time to go out there and shine, then it's kind of like it doesn't exist. "So, tthe only thing that was up in the air was like once I get out here, are those opportunities gonna be available because I'm ready to deliver? And they have been in mass quantity. So, I mean, it's, I'm having the time of my life. I can't say it enough, man. I really, truly am." Despite the feud between Kross and Bishop this year, Kross recognized how far Bishop has come in his growth as a pro wrestler. "He has a bright future ahead of him," Kross said. "I've said it before and I'll say it again, he's a perfect throwback. He's got that Sid Justice, Sid Vicious type of demeanor, and people love that, and you just can't find those types of wrestlers sitting around anymore. "A lot of what we see in the programming is this incredible hybrid Lucia type stuff. The era of the big man is kind of few and far in between, and I think with wrestling being best formatted as a variety act, you gotta have somebody like that on the show. You need some, you need some heavy hitters, those larger than life type characters, and I definitely think he fits the bill." Saturday Night SuperFight takes place this weekend and can be seen on Veeps at 8 p.m. ET. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aedcf5969fbdcb35dec34e3 MATT CALKINS: After years of threats and intimidation, the bullies in the women's sports debate finally lost te 2026-11-06T13:00:09.751Z MATT CALKINS: After years of threats and intimidation, the bullies in the women's sports debate finally lost They passed. First, Initiative 638 in Washington. Then, Prop 134 in Colorado. Two measures that will enforce the separation of boys and girls in sports — two measures that show common sense can prevail over partisanship. Many will view these results as a bellwether for where the rest of the country is heading. If policies like these can pass in deep-blue states, proponents will argue they can pass anywhere. WASHINGTON STATE VOTERS APPEAR TO PASS FIRST-EVER BALLOT MEASURE SEPARATING BOYS AND GIRLS SPORTS But me? I see something else entirely. I see the people finally sticking it to the bullies. Let's go back to July, when Washington high school student Ahnaleigh Wilson attended a rally supporting Fever guard Sophie Cunningham at Climate Pledge Arena. Do you remember what happened inside the venue after the game started? Seattle Storm co-owner Celeste Keaton approached Wilson — who was holding a sign reading "Thank You Sophie For Speaking Up For Girls!" — and began cursing her out. "You're f---ing insane," she allegedly said. "I hope Jesus can forgive you." Wilson was brought to tears...but this was hardly a one-off. HOSTILE VALKYRIES FANS VERBALLY ATTACKED WOMEN'S SPORTS ACTIVISTS AT WNBA FINALS GAME 1 IN SAN FRANCISCO Fellow Washingtonian Frances Staudt chose not to play against a male in a high school basketball game over two years ago. Since then, she said she has endured daily harassment at Tumwater High, with people telling her they hope she chokes and dies and goes to hell. Former high school softball star Kendall Kotzmacher may have had it worse. At a Cunningham rally in Minnesota earlier this year, a pro-trans counterprotester told her that she should have been aborted. And don't for a minute think this stops with the kids. XX-XY Athletics founder Jennifer Sey shared a video of her and her friends being called to the concourse to meet with security at a Golden State Valkyries game last month. During their march up the stairs, a woman flipped her the bird and told her to "f---ing kill yourself." But that was just a foreshock to what women's sports advocates endured at a Portland Thorns game two Fridays ago. After a group of about 20 XX-XY supporters unfurled a banner that said "Save Women's Sports," Thorns supporters started yelling "f--- you" before sending one woman tumbling over two rows of seats. They also started poking women with flagpoles they'd brought into the stadium. I saw this up close while reporting for OutKick, but had my phone knocked out of my hand and beer poured on me while filming it. So who got kicked out? Not the assaulters. Nope, it was the peaceful Save Women's Sports crowd — with Seattle-based podcaster Brandi Kruse having her hand restrained behind her back as she was walked up to the concourse. BRANDI KRUSE TELLS LAURA INGRAHAM ABOUT BEING FORCED OUT OF PORTLAND SOCCER GAME: 'WE DID NOTHING WRONG' Even a Lyft driver got in on the hazing, as he booted four XX-XY shirt-wearers from his car once he found out who they were aligned with. The bullies are everywhere. But you know what? They lost. People don't have to be afraid to take a pro female stance on this issue anymore. The outrage mob may try to sink their talons into anyone who does, but they've been declawed by the will of the people — who sliced right through the propaganda. Did you know opponents of Prop 134 outspent the 'yes' campaign nearly 18 to 1—dropping $4.9 million against just $270,000—only to come up empty? Did you see all those ads or newspaper endorsements in Washington claiming that I-638 was going to lead to "invasive genital exams?" Nobody bought it. The two measures sailed through in two of the bluer states in the country. Just less than a month ago, I was at a cross country meet where a boy who switched to the girls team midseason was competing. Out of maybe 100 parents I tried to talk with, just two went on the record — and the vast majority refused to even be quoted anonymously. Said one father: "I don't want my house burned down." SIGN UP FOR THE DAILY OUTKICK NEWSLETTER The bullies have been throwing blows on this issue for years now. Just ask advocates such as Riley Gaines, who's been enduring them from every angle. The thing about bullies, though, is they always feel small inside. After these two measures passed, they feel even smaller.

Shaun Benally, 45, was arrested around 11:30 p.m. Oct. 25 on suspicion of obstructing a public thoroughfare after officers responded to reports of a man blocking traffic, according to a probable cause statement. Nearly an hour earlier, the caller reported the man was in the roadway on a bicycle and appeared to be trying to get struck by a vehicle. Another caller told dispatch the man intentionally stepped in front of their vehicle, according to the statement. Officers located a man matching the callers’ descriptions. He appeared to be physically impaired and disgruntled, the statement said. Police reported that he refused to follow officers’ commands before being arrested. A misdemeanor case filed Oct. 27 lists citations for public drunkenness and obstructing a public thoroughfare.  A separate misdemeanor case filed Oct. 23 lists charges of public drunkenness and consuming liquor in public.

Dr. Kristin Knouse, the former colleague whose sexual misconduct allegations dismantled Sabatini's American academic career, is challenging the October verdict. Her decision triggered a battle over legal consequences surrounding workplace misconduct claims and the authority of campus tribunals. Knouse’s attorney, Ellen Zucker, believes that the $6 million verdict could potentially stop female scientists from reporting misconduct, claiming the jury's decision reflects a society that refuses to believe women who challenge powerful men. US OLYMPIC HERO NANCY HOGSHEAD WINS LEGAL BATTLE AFTER VOLLEYBALL COACH'S $250M DEFAMATION SUIT IS DISMISSED "When someone can get sued for having spoken out, that kills the willingness of anyone to participate in an investigation," Zucker told Fox News Digital. "Daring to speak out will get you sued, [and] the likelihood that anyone would come forward goes down a lot." Sabatini’s legal team rejected the narrative. His attorney, Lisa G. Arrowood, told Fox News Digital that the verdict poses zero threat to genuine victims. "The jury verdict in this case should have no impact on women who truly have been harassed or abused and decide to report the misconduct," Arrowood said. "What the jury found here, based on the contemporaneous documents written by Dr. Knouse herself, was that no harassment ever occurred and that her claims of harassment and rape were false and defamatory. This jury verdict, therefore, has no bearing on people who report truthfully." Arrowood also expressed confidence that the $6 million penalty would withstand appeal. "This is her right," Arrowood said. "However, the judge was very careful in this case and frequently ruled in her favor on many close calls. We think her appeal will be unsuccessful." FORMER CAL SOFTBALL PLAYER FILES LAWSUIT AGAINST UNIVERSITY, FEMALE EX-COACH OVER ALLEGED SEXUAL MISCONDUCT Zucker argued that the verdicts will not stand, warning that penalizing accusers threatens future institutional investigations. "We do not believe the verdicts will stand," Zucker said. "Our client came to court and told the truth about her experiences with Sabatini, as did multiple other women; investigators uncovered several violations of institutional policy." The upcoming appellate fight will scrutinize the events that led to the lawsuit. The pair first met in 2012, when Knouse was a doctoral student in the Harvard-MIT M.D./Ph.D. program and Sabatini served on her thesis committee. By 2018—after Knouse had been named a Whitehead Fellow—they began a relationship, according to court documents. FORMER UCLA GYNECOLOGIST SENTENCED AFTER PLEADING GUILTY TO SEXUALLY ASSAULTING PATIENTS AT SCHOOL Sabatini maintained the relationship was consensual. Knouse alleged it was coerced and that Sabatini created an inappropriate workplace dynamic. A 2021 Whitehead investigation found Sabatini violated its workplace relationship policy. Text messages made public during the case showed Knouse wrote that she would "fixate on how I’m being held as a backup and competed against other women," Boston 25 News reported. In one message about visiting Sabatini's hotel room one night on a work retreat, she wrote: "In hindsight, it was quite aggressive, #hetoo," according to the outlet. Knouse launched a campaign against Sabatini that she called "Covert Operation Dethrone," Boston 25 reported, and joked in one message about buying a "Lambo" if she won a settlement. "Dr. Sabatini and his legal team do not criticize the MeToo movement or the right of women to complain of harassment," Arrowood added. "This case is unique in that the jury found that Dr. Knouse’s claims were fabricated and designed to cause harm to Dr. Sabatini." After Knouse accused him of sexual misconduct, MIT administrators stripped Sabatini of his tenured position. The Howard Hughes Medical Institute dismissed him. The Whitehead Institute ousted him. CBS NEWS FACES $20M DEFAMATION LAWSUIT AFTER MISIDENTIFYING MARYLAND TEENAGER IN REFLECTING POOL REPORT Arrowood said that Sabatini’s team is launching its own counter-offensive on appeal, seeking to overturn the court’s earlier decision that dismissed the Whitehead Institute from the lawsuit. MIT and HHMI were not defendants in the defamation lawsuit. MIT declined to comment but referred Fox News Digital to a letter sent out to staff in 2022, when Sabatini resigned and the school said he was found to have "behaved in ways incompatible with the responsibilities of faculty membership." HHMI did not respond to a request for comment. BIDEN OFFICIALS CIRCUMVENTED COURT ORDER IN TITLE IX CASES, INCLUDING MALES IN GIRLS’ SPORTS, DOCS SHOW The universities based their firings on internal Title IX investigations, which concluded that Sabatini violated policies by entering into an undisclosed romantic relationship with a junior researcher. The campus tribunals require a low burden of proof, which rarely allows the accused to cross-examine the accuser, according to the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression. Arrowood argued that the institutions rushed to judgment before the facts could be tested in a civil court. "This verdict should send universities the message that all the facts and documents from both sides need to be obtained and analyzed before deciding to fire someone," she said. SEND US A TIP "Here, the investigators and the Whitehead Institute allowed one party and her lawyers to control what evidence they received and even what they could show to Dr. Sabatini. Had the full picture been shown to the institution and to the investigators, we believe the outcome would have been different." GOT A TIP? When the legal battle reached a Suffolk County courtroom, the jury denied Knouse’s counterclaims of harassment and instead ordered her to pay Sabatini millions for defamation. While Sabatini won the courtroom battle, the years-long ordeal destroyed his U.S. research operation. Activist billionaire Bill Ackman stepped in and funded a new laboratory for Sabatini in Prague, where Sabatini continues his life-saving cancer research. GET BREAKING NEWS BY EMAIL "I lost everything. There was nothing left of my normal life," Sabatini previously told Boston 25 News. "I've been dreaming about this moment for all this time, but often thinking I might not make it, financially, emotionally or physically." The case now moves to the Massachusetts appellate courts. The formal briefing schedule is pending.

Your day of sulking is over. Now what? First, acknowledge to voters that you understand what just happened. There are many reasons you lost – ICE raids, the war, lousy candidates and tariffs, to name a few. MEHEK COOKE: REPUBLICANS FAILED THE AFFORDABILITY TEST. THIS IS HOW TO WIN VOTERS BACK But nearly every pollster agrees the landslide came because of gas prices and "affordability." Good news, Mr. President. DEMOCRATS SAY THEY'LL MAKE LIFE AFFORDABLE. YOUR WALLET MAY DISAGREE You can do something about that right now. I mean not next week. Now. You should hold a national presidential address tonight conceding that voters are angry and financially stressed out. Tell Americans you hear them and then pledge that every policy you make over the next two years will be determined by whether it helps working-class Americans, farmers, ranchers and small businessmen and women pay their bills. TRUMP PLEDGES TO VETO 'INSANE' DEM BILLS, PINPOINTS ISSUE PARTIALLY TO BLAME FOR REPUBLICAN LOSSES Any Green New Deal congressional legislation that makes energy more expensive, you will veto. You should announce to the country that you are issuing an immediate emergency executive order to bring gas prices at the pump down by 50 cents a gallon or more.   Democrats may challenge Trump on whether he has the unilateral authority to do so. He should, in that case, demand that, when Congress reconvenes Nov. 9, that the House and Senate pass this emergency legislation to bring down gas prices. If Democrats block this action, they would be telling voters they aren’t serious about delivering Americans relief at the pump.  ENERGY SECRETARY WRIGHT SAYS TRUMP ADMINISTRATION OPEN TO SUSPENDING FEDERAL GAS TAX AMID PRICE SURGE This could all be accomplished by temporarily suspending the federal gas tax of 18.4 cents a gallon until gas prices nationally fall below $4 a gallon. This order would also suspend the renewable fuel regulations that add as much as 45 cents to the cost of a gallon of gas and diesel. As we learned on Tuesday, Nov. 3, many of your Make America Great Again voters – the men and women who have twice elected you president – have lost confidence that you’re looking out for their interests. Exit polls show a majority of voters say their own family finances are getting worse, not better. Challenge the Democrats in Congress who won on a promise of lower gas prices to pass a law to suspend these taxes and regulations on an emergency basis to help American families. Tell the nation that you will work with congressional Democratic leaders on any proposal that will bring these prices down. Force the hand of the incoming Senate Majority Leader and House Speaker by asking them what their affordability plan is. Sounds like they don’t really have one. In the Biden years, Democrats shut down pipelines and refineries – which adds to gas prices. Tell the American people that California’s Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom has recently signed legislation that bans new offshore drilling and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has banned all drilling for 20 years. This is the state with the most expensive gas in the nation. DAVID ASMAN: DEMOCRATS EXPLOIT GAS-PRICE PAIN WHILE IGNORING THEIR OWN RECORD New Jersey Democratic Gov. Mikie Sherrill warned 12 energy companies that it is illegal to import Russian oil and gas into New Jersey harbors at the risk of criminal penalties. These are policies that will raise, not cut, gas prices. If you hate oil and gas and the industry that produces it, as many congressional Democrats do, you probably aren’t interested in lowering its price. Ask Congress to immediately pass permitting reform so we can build new refineries and pipelines to get the oil to the gas stations. AMERICA’S BROKEN PERMITTING SYSTEM IS QUIETLY RAISING YOUR COST OF LIVING Challenge governors to lower or suspend their gas taxes until prices are back well below $4 a gallon. California and Illinois charge more than 70 cents a gallon on top of the 18.4 cents a gallon federal tax. If you end the ethanol mandate, in some states the gas price could fall by more than $1 a gallon. CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINION Now that’s real affordability. That’s what voters just voted for. Is that what Democrats want? Find out, Mr. President.

The findings, scheduled for presentation at the American Heart Association’s Scientific Sessions 2026 in Chicago Nov. 6–9, show that both casual and heavy marijuana users have higher odds of heart conditions compared to non-users. Researchers analyzed survey responses collected between 2020 and 2024 through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. SHARON STONE'S TERRIFYING WEED WITHDRAWAL SPARKS WARNING ABOUT TODAY'S POTENT MARIJUANA People who reported using cannabis between one and five days per month had 23% higher odds of reporting a history of cardiovascular disease than non-users. Those using it 16 to 30 days per month had 21% higher odds. "This study raises important concerns about cannabis use and cardiovascular health, particularly stroke," Dr. Kristen "Nicke" Worth, an Ohio-based physician and medical adviser at NuggMD, a telehealth platform for medical marijuana evaluations, told Fox News Digital. "One finding I found particularly interesting was that people who used cannabis just one to five days per month had somewhat higher reported odds of a previous stroke than people who used it more frequently," added Worth, who was not involved in the study. Low-frequency users had 40% higher odds of a reported stroke, while heavy users had 25% higher odds. The study found no statistically significant link between cannabis use and heart attacks. MARIJUANA USERS MAY FACE HIDDEN DRIVING DANGER THAT STANDARD TESTS CAN MISS "That isn't what we'd necessarily expect from a straightforward dose-response relationship, where greater exposure is associated with greater risk. But we shouldn't interpret this as evidence that heavier use is safer.," Worth said. The method of consumption did not change the outcome. Whether participants smoked, vaped or consumed edibles like gummies, the risk remained consistent, according to the researchers. TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ "We were surprised to find that the link between cannabis use and cardiovascular disease was not straightforward," said lead author Dr. Aabha Divya, an assistant professor of cardiothoracic surgery at Tulane University School of Medicine, in an AHA press release. "We expected that the chances of heart disease would gradually rise as people used cannabis more often, but that wasn't the case. Both low-use and heavy-use groups had higher odds of developing heart disease." The study comes amid growing commercial availability and use of the drug across the country. According to the research team, about one in six adults reported past-month cannabis use in 2024, up from one in 10 in 2020 — a 51% increase over four years. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTER Dr. Robert L. Page II, a professor of clinical pharmacy at the University of Colorado and an American Heart Association volunteer expert who was not involved in the study, said the findings challenge common assumptions about the drug's safety. CLICK HERE FOR MORE HEALTH STORIES "In patients who use both, cannabis has always been considered an innocent bystander; however, this is not the case," Page said in a press release. "Overall, cannabis is beginning to emerge as a major contributor to premature heart disease in young and older adults, which can lead to serious cardiovascular events." Page added that doctors should question patients about marijuana use just as they do with cigarettes and alcohol. Researchers noted several key limitations to the findings. Because the study was observational and captured data from only a single point in time, it can only show a statistical link and cannot prove that cannabis causes heart disease or strokes. The data also relied on telephone surveys, leaving room for errors in participants' memory regarding their medical diagnoses and drug use. Additionally, the researchers did not track product strength, THC potency or total amounts consumed. The findings remain preliminary until vetted through the full, peer-reviewed publication process. "For patients, I wouldn't recommend making abrupt treatment decisions based on one preliminary study, but I wouldn't dismiss these findings," Worth said. "People should not discontinue prescribed cardiovascular medications because of this report." "Anyone using cannabis, medically or recreationally, should discuss their cardiovascular history, existing risk factors, medications and treatment alternatives with their healthcare professional," she added.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aedbef969fbdcb35dec315e JACKSON THOMPSON: NH school district pays $275K after banning fathers' for 'XX' wristbands at soccer game te 2026-11-06T11:50:17.076Z JACKSON THOMPSON: NH school district pays $275K after banning fathers' for 'XX' wristbands at soccer game A New Hampshire school district that banned two fathers from school grounds after they wore pink "XX" wristbands opposing transgender participation in girls' sports has agreed to a federal court judgment declaring it violated the plaintiffs’ First Amendment rights. The resolution, approved Thursday by U.S. District Judge Steven McAuliffe, ends more than two years of litigation and requires the district’s risk pool to pay $275,000 in attorneys’ fees and costs. TRANS ATHLETES DROP LAWSUIT TO GAIN ACCESS TO GIRLS' SPORTS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE AFTER SCOTUS RULING The judgment protects the four plaintiffs’ right to silently wear the wristbands along the sidelines, in spectator areas and in parking lots at any Bow School District sporting event. It expressly declares that the district violated their constitutional rights when it barred the wristbands at a Sept. 17, 2024, girls varsity soccer game. "It took more than two years, but the court has recognized that what happened to us was wrong," plaintiff Kyle Fellers said in a statement reported by The Associated Press. Fellers said the ban kept him from attending half of his daughter’s soccer games during her senior year. The case grew out of a game between Bow High School and Plymouth Regional High School, whose girls team included transgender player Parker Tirrell. The wristbands’ "XX" symbols referenced female chromosomes and expressed opposition to allowing biological males to compete in girls' sports. DOJ REVIEWING PORTLAND THORNS INCIDENT SHOWING WOMEN’S SPORTS SUPPORTERS STRUCK, FORCIBLY REMOVED School officials, accompanied by a police officer, confronted spectators over the wristbands. The confrontation escalated, the referee halted play and Fellers and Anthony "Andy" Foote subsequently received no-trespass orders. Fox News Digital previously reported on Foote’s ban after he wore the wristband to his daughter’s game. Fellers, Foote, Nicole Foote and grandfather Eldon Rash brought the lawsuit with representation from the Institute for Free Speech and local attorney Richard J. Lehmann. Under the settlement, Primex, the district’s risk pool, will pay $225,000 to the institute and $50,000 to Lehmann Major List PLLC. Each plaintiff will receive an additional $17.91, an amount the institute said symbolizes 1791, when the First Amendment was ratified. School officials had defended their response as an effort to protect students from harassment. Before the game, officials received reports about possible heckling and communications they believed suggested the protest could escalate. The fathers testified that they did not intend to harass or target the player. The parents initially suffered a setback when McAuliffe denied their request for a preliminary injunction in April 2025. But the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals concluded Aug. 26 that the plaintiffs were likely to succeed on their claim of viewpoint discrimination and sent the case back for further proceedings. The appeals court found no evidence the silent protest caused a material disruption before school officials intervened. It also found no evidence that any player actually saw the wristbands. The plaintiffs "did not march, shout, chant, or otherwise disrupt the game," the court wrote, concluding their conduct "fell short of harassment and disruption."

The panel also pointed to administrators’ descriptions of the message as exclusionary or hateful as evidence that officials likely punished the spectators because they disagreed with their views. Thursday’s resolution is a stipulated judgment agreed to by the parties. The settlement contains a provision denying wrongdoing except as expressly established in the judgment, which declares the district’s wristband ban unconstitutional. The judgment binds the district, its Board of Education and their successors. It remains effective even if the district revises its conduct policies or athletics handbook, and the court retains authority to enforce it and the settlement. The Associated Press reported that an attorney for the district did not respond to its request for comment. The Institute for Free Speech said the order arrived in time for a Bow girls varsity soccer playoff game scheduled for Friday, Nov. 6.

Before taking a single question, Harbaugh addressed the tragedy directly on behalf of the entire Giants organization. "First of all, I just want to express our thoughts and prayers to the family of Rachel Apa, a 24-year-old young athlete who passed away in the New York City Marathon this past weekend," Harbaugh said.

"I cannot imagine the pain that they're going through and yet also the pride they feel for a life well lived. When you read about her life, it's just incredible to read the type of person she was, and she'll be really dearly missed." "She's in God's hands now, and we just want to let the family know that the New York Giants are thinking about their daughter and their family," he added. Apa, a former Division I field hockey standout at Bucknell University and a graduate student at Charleston Southern, was running her first 26.2-mile race to raise money for Parkinson's disease research in memory of her late grandfather. She collapsed in Central Park near Mile 24, just two miles shy of the finish line. Spectators and race medics rushed to perform CPR, but she passed away hours later at Mount Sinai Hospital. Her family said doctors cited rhabdomyolysis, a severe and dangerous muscle breakdown. Medical examiners work to finalize the official cause.

On Wednesday, a day after Democrats dominated the midterm elections, Cunningham reposted a diatribe from entrepreneur Andy Frisella on her Instagram Story. "One of the strangest things about our culture is how much faith we’ve placed in elections to change our lives and how little faith we’ve placed in our own ability to do the same. People will spend months arguing about who should lead the country while spending zero time considering how they could better lead themselves … and THAT is a much bigger problem than most people realize," Frisella’s post read.

Politics is downstream of culture. We can keep changing the people in charge, passing new laws and arguing over which party has the answers … but until we change the culture fostering, producing and tolerating the problems we have as a society, nothing fundamentally changes. "A population of weak, unhealthy, uninformed and dependent people is a hell of a lot easier to control than a population of strong, healthy, educated and self-reliant people. Your responsibility is to become the exact opposite of everything they want for you to the best of your abilities. Your REAL best. In my opinion that’s our obligation as Americans. SOPHIE CUNNINGHAM RESHARES POST-ELECTION DAY MESSAGE: 'PERSONAL EXCELLENCE IS THE ULTIMATE REBELLION' "A culture of personal excellence is the foundation of a great country. There is no election, politician, policy or law that can substitute for that … and the best thing about that is the same behaviors that make you a better American also make your own life better quickly. If we want a better America … It starts with better Americans. There is no other way. Personal excellence is the Ultimate Rebellion." Cunningham seemingly faced people commenting back on her post, as she then added a different share to her Story. It was a blunt quote from boxing great Mike Tyson. "Social media made y’all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it," the post read. Now, Cunningham isn’t afraid to showcase her opinions on and off the court.

But what Cunningham was trying to show in this case was belief in a collective humanity rather than focusing on political disagreements post-midterm elections, unlike some of her WNBA peers. Cunningham has also noted in the past that she likes to remain in the "middle" when it comes to her politics, listening to both sides and making informed decisions from there.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aedb58f69fbdcb35dec2f3e One industry faces multi-trillion-dollar reckoning after historic midterm election reshuffle te 2026-11-06T11:10:07.589Z One industry faces multi-trillion-dollar reckoning after historic midterm election reshuffle President Donald Trump has thrown the federal government's weight behind massive data centers build-outs needed to power the country's artificial intelligence (AI) boom. But a historic Democratic sweep in Texas has put one of the nation's biggest AI infrastructure hubs under new political leadership, raising questions about the future of billions of dollars in planned investments. The victories marked a historic midterm night for Texas Democrats, who captured the governor's mansion for the first time in more than three decades and won a U.S. Senate seat for the first time since 1988. Texas is poised to overtake Virginia as the nation's largest data center market and is projected to account for roughly a quarter of new U.S. data center power capacity through 2030. With at least 248 projects planned across the state, investment bank Jefferies estimates that 13.3 gigawatts of announced developments could be at risk under a moratorium backed by incoming Gov. Gina Hinojosa. ONE STATE IS GROUND ZERO AS TRUMP'S MULTIBILLION-DOLLAR TECH AMBITIONS FACE A MIDTERM TEST Texas was hardly alone in facing growing opposition to data center development. In Ohio, voters weighed 21 data center-related ballot questions across 18 communities in the midterm elections, more than any other state, highlighting the mounting resistance to America's rapidly expanding AI infrastructure. The results this week are now forcing some developers to reconsider where to invest billions of dollars in future projects as political power shifts. "It makes us and our investors pause and think if we should be investing somewhere else," Brittany Kaiser, CEO of Alpha Compute, told Fox News Digital following the Republican bloodbath in Tuesday's election. Kaiser warned that political shifts in traditionally Republican states could push billions of dollars in planned investments elsewhere, including overseas, as companies weigh growing opposition to data center development — especially within the Democratic Party. "There's new decision making that needs to come into play and a lot more to think about than there was before the election," she said. IT TOOK 3 MONTHS TO GET INSIDE THIS MASSIVE TEXAS DATA CENTER — HERE’S WHAT WE SAW But relocating projects already underway is far more complicated, particularly when developers have secured land, negotiated power agreements and committed substantial capital. "It's not very easy to pivot after you've already made contractual and financial commitments to these types of builds," Kaiser said. For projects still in the pipeline, however, companies have more flexibility. Kaiser said Alpha Compute has already invested in data centers in Canada, Europe and Mexico, where regulatory approvals are more straightforward. The backlash highlights growing tensions between Washington's push to accelerate AI development and voters' concerns about electricity costs and the impact of data centers on their communities. Kaiser urged incoming lawmakers to strike a balance between addressing community concerns and preserving what she called "the biggest economic opportunity of our generation." "It's really important, yes, to make sure that data center companies are good actors and are doing things the right way," she said, calling for "common sense legislation and regulation" that allows developers to work with lawmakers and local communities. "If we can abide by those rules, then bans and moratoriums should not be the answer," Kaiser said. "It's just let's sensibly regulate and move forward in a way that is positively impactful for communities." Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aedb58e69fbdcb35dec2f35 Blood sugar spikes could hinge on the order you eat your food, study suggests te 2026-11-06T11:10:06.795Z Blood sugar spikes could hinge on the order you eat your food, study suggests A simple change to the order in which you eat could help blunt blood sugar spikes, new research suggests, but experts say it's not necessarily a "quick fix." In a study published in the journal Diabetes in October, mice that received olive oil 15 minutes before glucose — a simple sugar the body uses for energy — had a smaller early rise in blood sugar than mice given glucose first or glucose alone. The researchers also saw the effect in mice with type 2 diabetes and severe insulin deficiency. The researchers also tested other dietary fats, suggesting the response may not be unique to olive oil. The experiment offers clues about why food order may matter. BUTTER, BEEF TALLOW DEBATE ISN'T OVER AS HEART EXPERTS WARN OF RISKS AND US GUIDELINES DIFFER ON FATS "Our findings suggest that the order in which nutrients reach the gut can engage a coordinated hormone-nerve response that changes how quickly the stomach delivers glucose to the intestine," corresponding author Dr. Daisuke Yabe of Kyoto University said in a statement. When the mice received fat before sugar, their stomachs released food into the intestine more slowly and their blood sugar rose less sharply at first. THE 8 HEALTHIEST BEANS YOU SHOULD BE EATING MORE OFTEN, ACCORDING TO NUTRITION EXPERT The researchers also found that giving the mice fat first triggered early increases in two hormones, glucagon and GLP-1. Although glucagon is usually known for raising blood sugar, the researchers found that the two hormones appear to work together to help limit the rise in glucose. Yabe said the group's research is inspired by practical approaches people can sustain. "Meal-sequencing is appealing because it merely changes how a meal is eaten rather than requiring people to avoid entire food groups," he said. BEST FOODS FOR REDUCING DANGEROUS BELLY FAT AND PROTECTING HEART HEALTH The researchers, however, said further studies are needed to test meal sequencing in people. The study adds to research on how food order may offer a practical way to moderate blood sugar, Huma Chaudhry, a Chicago-based registered dietitian and founder of Dose of Nutrition, told Fox News Digital. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTER Chaudhry also cautioned, however, that since the study was conducted on mice, "We can't assume the same results would occur in humans." Previous human research suggests eating vegetables or protein before carbohydrates may also help moderate post-meal blood sugar, while more research is needed on olive oil specifically, she said. CLICK HERE FOR MORE LIFESTYLE NEWS "The takeaway isn't that everyone should start drinking olive oil before a meal," she said, adding that there is "no need to treat it like a supplement or quick fix." "The bigger message is about building balanced meals that naturally contain healthy fats, protein, fiber and carbohydrates," Chaudhry added. The mice were fasted overnight and received olive oil and glucose separately, 15 minutes apart, which is different from people eating a typical balanced meal. TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ Chaudhry suggested starting with a leafy green salad dressed with olive oil before pasta, or pairing eggs with toast at breakfast. Food sequencing doesn't require separating foods by a set interval, Chaudhry said.  At dinner, for instance, someone might eat a salad dressed in olive oil first and then have chicken and pasta, which can raise blood sugar, together. "Food order may influence blood sugar alongside the overall quality and balance of our meals," she said. Fox News Digital reached out to the study authors for comment. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aedb58d69fbdcb35dec2f2c Clash in the castle: Medieval Times dinner theater insiders allege animal cruelty, sexual harassment te 2026-11-06T11:10:05.949Z Clash in the castle: Medieval Times dinner theater insiders allege animal cruelty, sexual harassment For 43 years, Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament performers across North America have captivated audiences as jousting knights and bejeweled ladies on horseback. But now the company’s own castle is under siege as former employees allege in lawsuits that the company shrouds a culture of animal cruelty, sexual harassment, discrimination, bullying and retaliation for reporting abuse. At the shows, guests dine on what’s billed as a medieval-style feast, as they cheer on armor-clad knights, who participate in a tournament on horseback and battle with swords. The chain established its first location in Kissimmee, Florida, near Orlando, in 1983. The company now employs more than 2,000 at 10 "castles" in the United States and Canada. MEDIEVAL-THEMED LIVE SHOWS DRAW YOUNG WOMEN WHO ARE LOOKING FOR LOVE AND JADED BY MODERN DATING: REPORT The theater’s show champions the "chivalry" of their knights. But some who work along those performers say the culture is biased against female cast members. A former "queen" of the castle is now suing the company, alleging a workplace environment "rooted in gender discrimination and sexual harassment." Another whistleblower alleged that she was fired for voicing concerns about animal cruelty. FORMER DISNEY CHANNEL STAR ALLEGES SHE WAS SEXUALLY ABUSED AT 14 AFTER BEING TOLD TO ‘BOND’ WITH EMPLOYEE A civil lawsuit was filed in June by a former cast member of the Buena Park, California, castle. She alleges a hostile work environment with widespread sexual harassment. Kaitlyn Farrell resigned in February 2024 because of "intolerable" conditions after joining the company as a "queen" five years earlier, according to the lawsuit filed in the Superior Court of California, in Orange County. The "two-tiered workplace culture" treats female cast members as "a lesser class of employee," she said in the lawsuit. Farrell alleges that unwanted sexual advances toward female employees are "normalized" and "gender-based misconduct," and that complaints are "dismissed" with "indifference." While working at Medieval Times, she was asked to be a witness in a workplace harassment investigation for another employee. That made her the "target of open retaliation by the very employee she reported on," her lawsuit alleges. Management stood by and did nothing, she said. On another occasion, according to the lawsuit, a manager ordered someone to "remove stitching" from her costumes, what she calls a "calculated sabotage" that was "maliciously intended to cause wardrobe malfunctions in front of live audiences." After employees unionized at the Buena Park location and she participated in a strike in February 2023, Farrell said she became the "primary target of an extreme, sexualized cyberbullying and doxxing campaign." Anonymous social media accounts with "obvious indications" of employee or management involvement posted content such as her dating history, sexually derogatory captions and photoshopped images with her face "on the bodies of semi-nude cartoon characters depicted in simulated sexual positions," the lawsuit alleges. DISNEYLAND, ACTORS' UNION CLASH OVER PARENTAL LEAVE, BENEFITS AS UNION NEGOTIATES FIRST CONTRACT The harassment escalated to physical stalking when Medieval Times employees "traveled to Ms. Farrell's secondary workplace" at another theme park "to physically intimidate her while she was working" to entertain guests, the lawsuit alleges. When she made formal complaints about the behavior, an attorney for Medieval Times issued a written letter dismissing the cyberbullying and stalking as "weird allegations." "We look forward to proving these allegations in court," Farrell’s attorney, Charles Ludd, Jr. told Fox News Digital. Medieval Times did not respond to a request for comment on the lawsuit. But former employee Bill Elliot calls Farrell’s allegations "false claims." Elliot worked at the same Medieval Times location as a knight until leaving after 12 1/2 years in 2015. He had no complaints with the company, he told Fox News Digital in a text message. "The company took care of us," he said. "We had decent pay; full-time hours with overtime … full medical, dental and vision insurance; and 401K." He believes that people making claims against the company are part of "the-rich-need-to-pay-their-fair-share group" and want to cash in, he said. "They have no responsibility in running a company that employs thousands of people and no risk in doing it, but believe they deserve more of the profit," he said. "If it was such a toxic environment and company, they could have immediately removed themselves, but didn't," he said. It was common for female cast members to seek "attention from the knights and [they] did everything to try and get that attention," Elliot said. "Now, because those females didn't get their way or what they wanted, they started making false claims and screaming ‘toxic masculinity’ or any other buzzwords to get attention." Farrell’s lawsuit isn’t the first to make concerning claims against the dinner theater company. In her 2019 lawsuit, Bethany Regan tells about how she joined the Buena Park castle in 2013. During her employment, she was treated "less favorably" than male cast members, according to court documents. When she became increasingly concerned about the welfare of the equine performers, she made reports to management, the lawsuit alleges. The head trainer had a "volatile temper" and would whip horses "unnecessarily" until they had "large welts" over their body, according to the lawsuit. Some horses were trained in ways that made them bleed from their mouths and in various places on their bodies, she alleged. Horses were "overworked" and sometimes weren’t allowed to rest until they were dehydrated, according to her complaint. One horse died as a result, she alleged. Regan had been warned that the head horse trainer was a close friend of the owner of the company and that any complaints could result in "retaliation." She brought up her concerns anyway. She also reported "dangerous and unsafe working conditions" for female cast members. After she made formal complaints, the company suspended her for "starting rumors," her lawsuit alleges. Later, her job was terminated. The lawsuit was settled in 2020. The conditions of the settlement were not made public. Regan’s attorney did not respond to a request from Fox News Digital for comment. Yvonne Barteau was principal trainer and director of entertainment operations for six years at Arabian Nights Dinner Attraction. Minutes away from a Florida Medieval Times castle, the horse-themed dinner theater operated from 1988 until 2014. Barteau now runs a horse rescue in Florida called Horses without Humans. She founded the operation after making a documentary about theater horses in the United States. Over the years, she worked with many Medieval Times performers as they moved between dinner theater jobs in the Orlando, Florida area, she told Fox News Digital. It was common for young performers to get "way too into their role, like they're really medieval warriors," Barteau said. "I think they got too into the identity." That led to men treating women in a "callous" way, she said, "and I think it was not frowned upon the way that it should be. So yeah, certainly back then, I saw it." Dinner theater jobs "seemed to attract people like that. And then sometimes the upper management didn't shut it down like they should have," she said. She met "good people" at Medieval Times. She met others that were not so good, she said. And there’s never an excuse for abusing a horse, she said. "Anybody that works with horses, or works with something that has no voice of its own—children, horses, any animal—you have to be the voice," she said. But "in today’s culture," she said, people with little experience with horses assume that any performance with a horse should be considered cruel. SEND US A TIP And that’s simply wrong, she said. GOT A TIP? "They haven't seen how some horses really do light up, and they do love to be out there performing," she said. "They love the attention."

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aedb58d69fbdcb35dec2f23 Inside ICE's high-stakes raids targeting illegal migrants in NYC as chief rips sanctuary laws te 2026-11-06T11:10:05.002Z Inside ICE's high-stakes raids targeting illegal migrants in NYC as chief rips sanctuary laws BROOKLYN, N.Y. — With New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani escalating his opposition to ICE, federal agents continue to carry out high-stakes street arrests that one of the agency's top officials says could be avoided if the city cooperated with federal authorities instead of enforcing its sanctuary policies. Fox News Digital embedded with ICE agents last Thursday, getting a rare, firsthand look at the surveillance, tense stakeouts and split-second decisions behind arrests on Brooklyn streets — while riding along with the agency's top local enforcement official as he blasted city and state leaders over policies he says put officers and the public at risk. The early-morning operation saw agents move in on two men, handcuffing them and rushing them into unmarked SUVs. The first arrest was over in seconds. The second turned into a tense struggle. MAMDANI CALLS ICE A 'ROGUE' AGENCY AFTER NYC SHOOTING, CLAIMS AGENTS VIEW LAW AS 'MERELY A SUGGESTION' Behind the wheel was Ken Genalo, head of ICE's Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) in New York City, who accused Mamdani, Gov. Kathy Hochul and the City Council of keeping dangerous offenders on the streets. "100% all of this is about politics. It is not about public safety," Genalo said as he sat in his vehicle while his team staked out a Georgian illegal migrant charged with sexual abuse. He argued that sanctuary laws force ICE to track down suspects who should have been handed over to agents at local jails. Instead agents have to try and apprehend migrants on city streets. "They don't acknowledge the victims, they don't acknowledge the angel families, those that unfortunately have suffered severe loss due to illegal alien crime," he said. The operation came less than a week after Mamdani released a Spanish-language video advising New Yorkers on how to respond to ICE agents, as tensions flared following the shooting of a Dominican migrant who authorities say tried to ram officers with his vehicle. The migrant had been in the U.S. for just three years but had already racked up a lengthy rap sheet for theft, robbery, assault, drug and weapons offenses, according to DHS. The Brooklyn arrests came amid a wider enforcement push with ICE, arresting nearly 2,200 illegal migrants during a statewide crackdown in August, known as Operation Rotten Apple. But the ride-along with ICE revealed what those figures cannot: hours of painstaking surveillance, careful planning and tense waiting — all for arrests that can be over in seconds and quickly escalate. DHS BOSS REVEALS OVAL OFFICE PLAN TO 'WITHHOLD FUNDING' FROM SANCTUARY CITIES AFTER AGGRESSIVE NEW YORK BUST Before dawn Thursday, more than a dozen armed ICE agents gathered at a secret Brooklyn location, wearing protective vests marked "ERO." Commanders briefed them on several targets and the potential risks: one might be armed, another was an amateur boxer. The stark warnings offered a glimpse into the dangers agents face as they head onto the streets to carry out arrests. Agents checked their gear, attached body cameras to their vests and hit the streets around 5:50 a.m. Genalo drove an unmarked SUV, monitoring radio chatter and explaining how agents tracked their targets, what could go wrong and why timing was critical. The first target was Nika Tkeshelashvili, 40, a Georgian national who ICE said entered the United States illegally through the southern border in January 2023 and was arrested in September on a first-degree sexual abuse charge. The charge remains pending. His next immigration court hearing wasn't until October 2028 — a five-year wait that drew disbelief from Genalo. As the SUV rolled through Brooklyn, Genalo explained how agents establish a "pattern of life" — studying a suspect's routine to determine when and where to make an arrest. In Tkeshelashvili's case, the intelligence was surprisingly mundane. Agents believed he regularly emerged between 7 a.m. and 7:30 a.m. to move his car and avoid a parking ticket. Unmarked ICE vehicles took up positions along nearby streets while Fox News Digital waited with Genalo roughly half a block away, with a clear view of the apartment building where the Georgian national was expected to emerge. But as the minutes ticked by, he was nowhere to be seen. Genalo remained unfazed. Meanwhile, daylight crept across the neighborhood, bringing commuters, schoolchildren and growing traffic. Genalo explained that darkness was an ally during these operations, but as the streets filled, a discreet arrest became harder. MAMDANI DEMANDS TRUMP RELEASE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT SHOT BY ICE AGENT AS PROTESTS ERUPT IN THE BRONX Even weeks of surveillance could not guarantee Tkeshelashvili would appear, Genalo explained. If he stayed inside, agents might have to return another day. Then, at 7:57 a.m., a voice broke over the radio. "Target one just stepped out with a cigarette going towards the car if I'm not mistaken," an agent reported. Genalo raised his hand and pointed toward the radio. "I think that's ours," he said as more chatter crackled through the SUV. "He's wearing a black vest, red shirt, red hat," another agent radioed. "Team two, that's Tango. That's Tango," an agent called out. Within moments, agents converged on Tkeshelashvili in the middle of the street. Genalo accelerated toward the scene, the arrest unfolding through the SUV's windshield. By the time Fox News Digital pulled up, officers had already handcuffed Tkeshelashvili and were moving him into a waiting vehicle. He remained calm and said little. Within moments, the team was moving on toward Target 2. Genalo hailed the arrest as "textbook" and "flawless," praising the intelligence, timing and surprise that allowed agents to secure their target without a struggle. Speed, he explained, was critical. Minutes earlier, we heard over Genalo’s radio that another ICE team had encountered agitators blowing whistles, shouting and warning locals that federal agents were nearby. The team was pursuing an Ecuadorian migrant who faced sexual misconduct charges involving a child, Genalo said, but the agitators disrupted the operation. "Why would you protest that we're trying to arrest this individual?" Genalo said. As we pulled away from the first arrest scene, Genalo briefed us on the next target: Yves Frantz Augustine, 45, a Haitian national who ICE said entered the U.S. legally in 1997 but overstayed his visa. Ordered deported in 2006, he remained in the country, later amassing a criminal record that included an assault conviction for which he served seven years in prison, along with weapons offenses and a terroristic threat case, according to ICE. Augustine previously served seven years in prison for assault, but ICE's attempt to deport him in 2011 during the Obama administration failed because Haiti would not issue the necessary travel documents, Genalo said. ICE tried to take him into custody after further arrests, but New York authorities refused to hand him over despite three detainer requests, according to Genalo. Agents faced a major concern during this operation: Augustine was taking a child to school. Genalo explained that agents would wait until Augustine drops off the child before moving in, saying ICE policy is to avoid making arrests near schools or in the presence of children. Another team of agents were tracking Augustine from cars and on foot, relaying updates over the radio as Brooklyn's morning rush gathered pace. Genalo pulled up alongside the curb, explaining that Augustine was expected to walk straight toward our SUV. We waited as traffic rolled past and officers closed in on his position. At approximately 8:26 a.m., the go-ahead came over the radio. Agents quickly surrounded Augustine just ahead of our SUV, grabbing his arms as they tried to handcuff him. "Don't move! Police! Let me see your hands!" an officer shouted, drawing his weapon. "We have a warrant for your arrest!" another announced. But Augustine refused to put his hands behind his back, prompting the agents to press him against the metal shutters of a closed storefront as they struggled to cuff him. "No, no, no, no," Augustine shouted. "Sir, don't fight," an officer warned, while a third appeared and tried to calm him. "Just put your hands behind your back, sir," the third agents said, placing his hand on his shoulder. As agents led Augustine away in handcuffs, his jacket slipped down, revealing the words "it's all a trap" emblazoned across the back of his shirt. The front read "NOCOMP." He continued pulling back as agents moved him toward a waiting SUV, pleading for his children. "Think about my kids," he cried out, according to footage recorded by Fox News Digital. Appearing stunned, he continued questioning the arrest. "A warrant for what?" he shouted and asked to call his wife before claiming he was now a U.S. citizen. An officer showed him the warrant and gave him time to read it before placing him in the SUV. Genalo disputed the citizenship claim, citing Augustine's 2006 deportation order. The arrest took roughly four minutes, far longer than the first, before agents secured Augustine and cleared the street. Back in the SUV, Genalo said Augustine's resistance forced officers to use additional restraint techniques, explaining that agents typically move detainees to a secure location before transferring them to an ICE processing facility. "We want to get in, make the arrest, and get out as fast as possible," Genalo said. He also rejected accusations that ICE agents abduct or disappear people, defending the speed of the arrests as a safety precaution. "We don't kidnap people, we don't disappear people. We arrest people," he said. For Genalo, the arrests reflected a wider battle over law and order — with ICE trying to remove dangerous offenders while city leaders refuse to cooperate and protesters work to disrupt operations. "You have murderers on the street. I mean, that by itself is absolutely amazing that you can say you're keeping the community safe by releasing murderers back on the streets," he said. Genalo said both Brooklyn suspects had previously been in local custody, but authorities ignored ICE requests to hand them over. The refusals, he argued, wasted taxpayer money and put officers, suspects and the public at risk. During the stakeout for Tkeshelashvili, agents feared their cover was blown when an NYPD patrol car appeared, adding another hurdle amid limited cooperation with local police. Genalo suggested a resident may have called police, but the concern was quickly resolved. Genalo laid much of the blame on Mamdani, Hochul and the City Council, accusing them of putting political ideology ahead of public safety while allowing offenders to return to the communities they claim to protect. "They're criminals that committed heinous crimes. And they should not be in the community," Genalo said of many of the migrants ICE has been apprehending. For Genalo, a Brooklyn native and 34-year law enforcement veteran deployed to Ground Zero with a special response team after 9/11, the breakdown in cooperation is personal. He recalled when ICE worked closely with local police and had its own unit at Rikers Island, taking more than 100 people a week into custody directly from the jail. Today there is no cooperation. Genalo blamed former Mayor Bill de Blasio for ending the arrangement and said former Mayor Eric Adams tried to restore cooperation but was hamstrung by the City Council. Mamdani, meanwhile, has called for ICE to be abolished and publicly opposed its enforcement operations. Genalo repeatedly fumed over New York City's sanctuary policies throughout the ride-along, challenging city leaders to put the issue on the ballot and let New Yorkers decide whether police should cooperate with ICE. "Let the residents decide," he said. A bipartisan push for a public vote in 2024 and 2025 went nowhere. Genalo suggested council members feared the result. Genalo also criticized anti-ICE protest networks that monitor federal vehicles, alert residents and mobilize protesters when officers are spotted. Even before Thursday's operation began, a car carrying civilians circled the agents' secret meeting point and parked nearby, raising suspicions that its occupants might be spotters. Officers kept watch until the car drove away. "I give a lot of kudos to the men and women of ICE in New York City and nationwide staying professional in spite of the agitation that they're facing," he said. Despite his blistering criticism of Mamdani and the city's sanctuary policies, Genalo said he was willing to talk with the mayor. "I just wish we could sit down and collaborate and come to an agreement because we have the same job to do, and that's to keep the people of the community of New York City safe," Genalo said. "The men and women of ICE in New York City will not waver," he said.

Ted Cruz and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis quickly offered competing assessments of the GOP's devastating midterm election losses, potentially previewing their visions for the party's future. The three high-profile Republicans, all viewed as potential contenders for the party's presidential nomination, used their postmortems to weigh what went wrong and what Republicans must do differently — a debate that could help define the GOP's direction heading into 2028. "I think everybody's trying to figure out where to position themselves in the aftermath. Where were you on the day after," longtime Republican strategist and presidential campaign veteran David Kochel told Fox News Digital. "I think these are all moves designed to look towards 2028." Oil drilling CEO and prominent Republican donor and bundler Dan Eberhart told Fox News Digital that "the early moves have started" in the 2028 Republican presidential nomination race. "These guys are going to go a couple of rounds before Christmas." HEAD HERE FOR FOX NEWS LIVE UPDATES ON THE MIDTERM ELECTIONS Vance kicked off the debate Wednesday morning with a roughly 600-word postmortem on X, blaming President Donald Trump's war with Iran for Republicans' worst ballot-box drubbing in decades as they lost control of Congress, along with a slew of governorships and state legislatures. Fueled by anger over high costs and the war with Iran, voters delivered a repudiation of Trump and his agenda, boosting Democrats to large majorities in the House and Senate. "The reason we lost is the war," Vance wrote as he appeared to put daylight between himself and his boss on foreign policy and America's relationship with Israel. "Any honest conversation about where we go from here must start there." Vance, in what some pundits viewed as an early pitch to eventually claim the MAGA and America First mantle, argued that defections from the party's successful 2024 coalition of voters, rather than a lack of GOP turnout, fueled the Republican collapse in the midterms. CLICK HERE FOR THE LATEST MIDTERM ELECTION RESULTS AS THE VOTES CONTINUE TO BE COUNTED Kochel called Vance's assessment "the most striking because it appears to say 'hey, we made a mistake with the war in Iran,' and that's about as far as I've seen a vice president go, not as a criticism of Trump but as a criticism in the policy." Asked about Vance's post, Trump told reporters, "I know how he feels about it. I think it was fine. I thought it was good." The president acknowledged that the war and the high gas and diesel prices it spurred hurt his party at the ballot box but insisted it was worth the cost. "If I had to do it again, I'd have to do it again," he said. "As far as that war is concerned, I would have done nothing different." Donald Trump Jr., the president's eldest son and a prominent figure in the MAGA movement, quickly gave Vance's postmortem a thumbs-up, writing on X, "Every word of this is 💯 💯 💯." Hours after Vance posted his assessment, Cruz posted his own scathing take on the midterms. POLLSTERS MISSED THE MARK, BUT THIS TIME IT WASN'T REPUBLICANS THEY UNDERCOUNTED The conservative firebrand senator from Texas, who was runner-up to Trump in the bruising 2016 Republican presidential primaries and has made no secret that he may run for the White House again, described the midterms as a "blue tsunami" and warned that his party had lost touch with voters, particularly in the Lone Star State. "2026 was not simply a blue wave; it was a blue tsunami. It was an a-- kicking," Cruz wrote. "It was not simply a bad 2006 midterm election. It was a Watergate-level repudiation." "Nowhere are the consequences of this election greater than Texas," Cruz wrote. "In the Lone Star State, we lost every single statewide election...Texas is blue. That is a hard sentence to utter." FLORIDA'S DESANTIS DESCRIBES GOP MIDTERMS WIPEOUT AS 'CLOSE TO AN EXTINCTION-LEVEL EVENT' FOR REPUBLICANS Cruz blamed the losses on the high cost of living and pointed to Trump's tariffs and the war in Iran. "Food is too high, gas is too high, diesel is too high, insurance is too high, life is too high," he wrote. "Understandably, people were pissed off, and elected Republicans didn't do enough to address their very real pain." DeSantis, the term-limited conservative governor who ran for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination before being decisively defeated by Trump, held a news conference Wednesday morning where he called the midterm election results "close to an extinction-level event for Republicans across the country." "Let’s just be clear, that is going to hurt — not just for the next two years... That is something that can reverberate for the next decade or more," he said. "We knew it could be worse. I don't think most of us thought it would be this bad." But DeSantis repeatedly highlighted that "the one state that was able to hold the line and withstand that is right here in the free state of Florida." While most pundits view Cruz as a likely 2028 contender, the jury's been out regarding DeSantis. But Eberhart, who's Florida-based, argued that "the first bullet in 2028 contest was Ron DeSantis throwing cold water on Trump's $5,000 dividend," referring to the president's early September pledge at the GOP midterm convention to make a cash payment to every adult U.S. citizen if Republicans retained the House and Senate. SIGN UP TO GET THE POLITICS NEWSLETTER Looking at the postmortems, Kochel said, "I think that we're going to be digging through the rubble for a while...The party going to have through this post apocalyptic period here and figure out what's the message going forward." He cautioned, "It's going to be really hard to hold the coalition together. I think Trump was uniquely able to do it with the power of his celebrity but I think there's going to be a lot of machinations here going forward."

CLOUD, MINN. — The owner of a Somali daycare center that has faced scrutiny over state and federal funding and is linked to a massive fraud settlement won a seat in the Minnesota legislature Tuesday night. Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party (DFL) candidate Abdi Daisane defeated a Republican incumbent to win Minnesota’s House District 14A seat in St. Cloud, Minnesota, becoming the first Somali-born lawmaker in the statehouse from St. Cloud, MPR News reported. Daisane, who delivered part of his victory speech in Somali, is the CEO of Blooming Kids Child Care Center in St. Cloud, which has received $7.29 million from the state-run Child Care Assistance Program since 2018. His childcare business also received $598,251.62 from the federally-funded Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) since 2020. A nonprofit called Partners in Nutrition, which recently had to pay an $18.5 million civil settlement for fraud, was the center's sponsor for CACFP funds. A press release from the settlement says Partners in Nutrition "knowingly defrauded the State of Minnesota out of millions of dollars in federal child nutrition funds during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, in violation of the Minnesota False Claims Act." MINNESOTA OFFICIAL'S VOTER GUIDE MESSAGE ON SOMALI TV TRIGGERS VIRAL BACKLASH: 'NOT AN ACCIDENT' Fox News Digital visited Blooming Kids Child Care Center on Thursday and found a quiet scene. The child care center is situated along a main road in St. Cloud's small downtown. A paper sign on a wooden front door that faces the street directs visitors to a different entrance. The floor-to-ceiling glass windows next to the door are covered with a tinted and mirrored film. The building is flanked by a parking lot that was mostly empty on Thursday afternoon. Behind the building is a tiny fenced-in playground, anchored by two children's jungle gyms that appear to fill most of the area. Alpha News reported on the funding in late October, and spoke with a nearby worker who said they never saw children entering or exiting the childcare facility. The outlet also reported that Blooming Kids Child Care Center has been cited for over a dozen violations. Additionally, questions about the immigration status of Daisane's wife, Ayaan Aydid, have circulated online after a video surfaced of her detailing to BBC how she crossed into the United States at the southern border. CULTURE CLASH LAID BARE AS VIOLENT SOMALI GANGS GRIP SUBURBAN COMMUNITIES: ‘THESE KIDS ARE DIFFERENT’ Daisane did not respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. News of Daisane’s victory quickly sparked pushback on social media. "We are a lost state," Red Ax Strategies President Matt Brodsky posted on X. "We should cede it to Canada." "MINNESOTA IS SO FREAKING COOKED," conservative commentator Eric Daugherty posted on X. "Minnesota is done," conservative personality Gunther Eagleman posted. ACT for America founder Bridgette Gabriel flagged a post about Daisane's election — and his purported illegal immigrant wife — to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin on X. "[G]reat opportunity to do something about this," she said. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aeda78469fbdcb35dec2c53 Oil-rich UAE makes massive AI bet as Sam Altman unveils ambitious plan to transform energy industry te 2026-11-06T10:10:12.631Z Oil-rich UAE makes massive AI bet as Sam Altman unveils ambitious plan to transform energy industry ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — At the opening of the world's largest energy conference in Abu Dhabi, artificial intelligence took center stage alongside oil and gas as OpenAI CEO Sam Altman joined senior UAE officials for the announcement of a major partnership aimed at bringing advanced AI into the energy industry. The opening ceremony of ADIPEC 2026, attended by Fox News Digital, brought together senior government officials and energy industry leaders at a time when the war involving Iran and disruptions to the Strait of Hormuz have placed extraordinary pressure on global energy supplies. But amid discussions about oil production, shipping routes and energy security, Dr. Sultan Al Jaber, the UAE’s minister of industry and advanced technology and chief executive of state-owned energy giant ADNOC, delivered a different challenge to the technology industry. OIL SQUEEZE TIGHTENS AS IRAN-BACKED ATTACKS CRIPPLE HORMUZ ESCAPE ROUTES "From the moment ChatGPT was born, the world has asked what energy can do for AI. And now, together, we will find out what AI can do for energy," Al Jaber told the audience, introducing a partnership between ADNOC, OpenAI and Abu Dhabi-based technology company G42. The announcement marked a significant step in the UAE’s ambition to become a global center for artificial intelligence, using its energy resources, financial strength and growing partnerships with American technology companies to help shape the industry’s future. Yet the question of what AI can actually deliver for the energy industry goes beyond the technology announcements. THE AI REVOLUTION WILL GO WHEREVER THERE'S ELECTRICITY — AND CHINA KNOWS IT Speaking exclusively to Fox News Digital on the sidelines of the conference, Dr. Angela Wilkinson, secretary general and CEO of the World Energy Council, said the most encouraging element of the presentations by Altman and Al Jaber was their focus on the role of people. "That it isn’t about AI taking decisions for humanity, it’s about AI enabling people to make better decisions," Wilkinson said. Wilkinson argued that the growing relationship between energy and AI should be understood not simply as a way to automate industrial processes, but as an opportunity to expand human capabilities. "I think what really cheered me up most is the recognition that it’s a people-centric conversation on both sides of the equation," she said. ONE OF AMERICA'S OLDEST MANUFACTURERS SAYS AI IS CREATING JOBS — NOT REPLACING THEM Amos Hochstein, a managing partner at TWG Global and a former senior adviser to President Joe Biden, welcomed the potential benefits of the new OpenAI-UAE partnership but warned that the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence must be balanced against its financial and societal costs. Speaking to Fox News Digital at ADIPEC, Hochstein said, "The energy sector is going to be one of the big beneficiaries of AI coming into the sector." But he cautioned that the U.S. must remain a leader in advanced AI while ensuring Americans are not left paying the price for its expansion, calling on the Trump administration to work more closely with industry and other sectors of society to maximize the benefits and minimize the risks. The ADNOC partnership is intended to connect advanced AI systems across the company’s operations, from oilfield development and reservoir management to refining, logistics and commercial trading. According to ADNOC, one of the initial applications will bring together decades of information from thousands of oil wells, multiple reservoirs and hundreds of facilities, with the goal of completing complex development plans in hours rather than months. The company says the technology could improve operational efficiency, lower costs and help energy producers respond more quickly to changing market conditions. Those projected improvements have not yet been independently demonstrated. For the UAE, the initiative represents something larger than a single agreement. AI ISN’T JUST A PROBLEM, IT’S A SOLUTION. SOME PEOPLE ARE ALREADY MAKING THE MOST OF IT The country is already a partner in the planned Stargate UAE project, a major computing infrastructure initiative involving American technology companies. The project is part of Abu Dhabi’s broader effort to establish itself as an international AI hub. In a separate interview with Fox News Digital in Dubai, Mohammed Baharoon, director general of the research center B’huth, described the country’s technological ambitions as an evolution from exporting barrels of oil to exporting digital computing capacity. Baharoon said the rise of AI could produce an economic transformation comparable to previous industrial revolutions, creating new industries and opportunities even as existing professions are disrupted. But he cautioned that governments are struggling to keep pace with the technology’s development. "We will need to bring in the concepts of regulation at the point of development, not after the development has happened," Baharoon told Fox News Digital. He argued that governments and technology companies need to begin addressing potential dangers while systems are being created, rather than waiting until they have already entered widespread use. THE BIGGEST THREAT IN AMERICA'S RACE WITH CHINA ISN'T BEIJING, TECH EXECUTIVE WARNS The question of human control was also central to Altman’s remarks at ADIPEC. During a panel, Altman argued that AI should remain a tool serving people rather than replacing human decision-making. The OpenAI chief also acknowledged a fundamental challenge facing his own industry: The enormous amount of energy required to power increasingly capable AI systems. Asked to identify his biggest challenge, Altman answered with a single word: "Energy." The exchange illustrated the complicated relationship between two industries that are becoming increasingly dependent on each other. AI companies need vast quantities of electricity to operate data centers, while energy producers are increasingly looking to AI to improve efficiency, optimize production and identify vulnerabilities before they disrupt supplies. AI BOOM: DEMAND FOR DATA CENTERS DRIVES INNOVATION BY ENERGY, TECH INDUSTRIES TO PRODUCE NEW POWER SOURCES The stakes are particularly high in the Gulf, where the war involving Iran and disruption to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz have forced energy producers to reconsider how they protect infrastructure and ensure supplies reach international markets. In his opening address, Al Jaber warned that nearly a billion barrels had been drawn from global oil inventories since the disruption of Hormuz, illustrating how quickly geopolitical instability can affect global energy supplies. The ADNOC chief presented artificial intelligence as one element of a broader effort to strengthen operational resilience, arguing that companies must develop systems capable of anticipating problems rather than simply responding after disruptions occur. ONE OF THE WORLD'S HOTTEST INDUSTRIES IS SPARKING A BLUE-COLLAR JOBS BOOM Altman, meanwhile, praised the UAE’s commitment to adopting AI across government and industry, describing it as the world’s most forward-looking country in embracing the technology. For Abu Dhabi, the emerging partnership between its traditional energy industry and the world’s leading AI companies offers an opportunity to extend its economic influence beyond oil exports. But whether these investments ultimately deliver the promised improvements in productivity, energy security and technological innovation remains to be seen. As the discussions at ADIPEC demonstrated, the question is no longer simply how much energy the AI revolution will require, but whether artificial intelligence can help solve some of the very energy challenges its growth is creating. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aeda78369fbdcb35dec2c4a STEVEN D ANDERSON: Time for Supreme Court to fix ‘race neutral’ discrimination te 2026-11-06T10:10:11.960Z STEVEN D ANDERSON: Time for Supreme Court to fix ‘race neutral’ discrimination The Supreme Court has made clear that racial discrimination has no place in public school admissions. But when schools hide discrimination behind race-neutral policies, lower courts have let them get away with it — as long as the targeted racial group isn’t hurt too much. On Oct. 19, the court agreed to hear a case brought by parents in Montgomery County, Md., challenging an admissions policy designed to reduce Asian-American enrollment at the county’s magnet middle schools. At stake is a fundamental question: Does the Constitution protect students as individuals, or do their rights depend on how others of their race perform? With this case, the Supreme Court could reverse a Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals precedent that Justice Alito once called "flagrantly wrong" and "a virus that may spread if not promptly eliminated." STAR STUDENT REJECTED BY 16 COLLEGES, HIRED BY GOOGLE, GETS LEGAL WIN IN RACIAL DISCRIMINATION SUIT This isn’t a small procedural question. It’s fundamental. Does the Constitution protect us as individuals? Or do our rights depend on the outcomes of racial groups? Montgomery County is a suburb of Washington, D.C., straddling the Capital Beltway and home to at least 10 federal agencies. Its school system is one of the largest in the country and includes four magnet middle schools for gifted students. In 2015, Montgomery County’s school system hired consultants to examine the racial makeup of its gifted programs, including its magnet schools. At the time, Asian-American students made up nearly half the enrollment at these four schools, which admitted students based on grades, a cognitive abilities test and teacher recommendations. The consultants reported "significant racial and socioeconomic disparities" at the schools. Black and Hispanic students were underrepresented compared to their countywide enrollment numbers. Montgomery County should "revise the criteria and process used to select students," the consultants urged. How? By introducing "non-cognitive criteria" and "group-specific norms" into the selection process. CALIFORNIA SOCIOLOGY PROFESSOR CITED 'IRONY' IN REMOVING ACT/SAT, NOT FIXING RACIAL DISPARITIES AS INTENDED The Board of Education listened. One board member described his vision for the magnet program "not simply as a matter of creating opportunity and having that be blind and neutral but in fact ensuring there were controls so that in fact those choices could reflect the community that we live in." Privilege, he warned, "is not going to go away." Now there is a lottery for Montgomery County magnet schools — but it’s not an open lottery. It has controls meant to produce a specific outcome. To be eligible, students must score in the 85th percentile on a Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) test, with percentiles "locally normed" so students are measured against a cluster of peers. DISCRIMINATORY 'SHADOW' REVIEW PROCESS LOCKS WHITE, ASIAN STUDENTS OUT OF CALIFORNIA MED SCHOOL, DOJ ALLEGES The result: Students in certain school clusters — those with high Asian American enrollment — need to score in the 93rd district-wide percentile to be eligible for the magnet lottery. At other schools, a child only needs to score in the 60th district-wide percentile. This new process certainly looks like a calculated act of discrimination to balance magnet schools racially. And it’s effective: Asian-American enrollment has sharply dropped since 2016. At one participating school, Asian-American participation dropped from 58.2% to 30.3%. My firm, Pacific Legal Foundation, promptly sued on behalf of the parents. OBAMA-APPOINTED JUDGE CLEARS WAY FOR WHITE EMPLOYEE TO CHALLENGE SEATTLE'S DEI POLICIES But according to the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, Asian-American participation still hasn’t dropped enough to warrant judicial review. The court refused to allow the parents’ case to go to trial, dismissing their argument because the share of Asian-American enrollment hadn’t yet dropped below the share of applications. TRUMP ADMINISTRATION ACCUSES PRESTIGIOUS LAW SCHOOL OF FAVORING BLACK APPLICANTS OVER WHITE, ASIAN PEERS In other words, Montgomery County’s new admissions policy may disadvantage Asian-American students because of their race. But because Asian-American applicants are still achieving at a high level as a group, the government’s discrimination doesn’t count. This isn’t how the law works. Equality is not a numbers game. (Those are for consultants’ reports.) It is the opposite: an individual birthright. The Constitution protects human beings, not statistical groups. No child’s rights should be contingent on how well other children of the same race perform. In 2024, Pacific Legal Foundation tried to bring a similar case to the Supreme Court, this one about admissions at Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology in Virginia. The Fourth Circuit rejected parents’ right to argue discrimination. The Supreme Court declined to take the case. But Justice Alito warned, in a dissent from denial joined by Justice Clarence Thomas, that the court would soon need to address the Fourth Circuit’s "dangerous" reasoning. CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINION "What the Fourth Circuit majority held, in essence, is that intentional racial discrimination is constitutional so long as it is not too severe," Justice Alito wrote. "This reasoning is indefensible, and it cries out for correction." That’s what the Supreme Court can do in AFEF v. Montgomery County.

Don’t let your emotions make bad money moves te 2026-11-06T10:10:11.306Z TED JENKIN: Democrats took Congress. Don’t let your emotions make bad money moves Democrats have taken control of the House and Senate. President Donald Trump remains in the White House. Republicans are furious. Democrats are celebrating. And millions of Americans are staring at their retirement accounts wondering one thing: What the heck does this mean for my 401(k)? Should you sell stocks? Buy gold? Move everything into cash? Before you make a move, you might want to look at what history actually tells us. Because this particular combination of political power has produced some surprising stock market results. STATE OF PLAY: BLUE WAVE SWEEPS DEMOCRATS INTO POWER, WITH KEY RACES STILL HANGING IN BALANCE According to research from RBC Wealth Management and Bloomberg, the S&P 500 has historically averaged just 4.9% annually when a Republican president faces a Democratic-controlled House and Senate. That's the lowest average among six political configurations studied from 1953 through 2025. Compare that with the other combinations: TRUMP PLEDGES TO VETO 'INSANE' DEM BILLS, PINPOINTS ISSUE PARTIALLY TO BLAME FOR REPUBLICAN LOSSES Those are historical annual price returns, excluding dividends, not predictions for 2027. But here's what should catch your attention. Not all political gridlock has produced the same stock market results. And anyone telling you Wall Street always loves divided government isn't looking at the complete numbers. Before you start selling everything in your retirement account, there's another statistic you need to know. According to Capital Group, the S&P 500 has averaged a 15.4% gain in the 12 months following midterm elections since 1950. Even more remarkable? Every post-midterm 12-month period in that study produced a positive return. That's a pretty impressive historical batting average. Why? DEMOCRATS' HISTORIC WINS IN TEXAS HIGHLIGHT TAKING CONTROL OF CONGRESS IN MIDTERM BLUE WAVE One explanation is that markets dislike uncertainty. Before elections, investors worry about taxes, regulations, spending and which party will control Washington. Once the election is over, some of that uncertainty disappears. Wall Street may not like the election results, but it often likes knowing the results. When Democrats control Congress and Trump controls the White House, passing major legislation generally becomes more difficult. Tax changes require negotiation. Spending bills can become political battlegrounds. Government shutdowns and debt-ceiling fights can create uncertainty. Some investors welcome the reduced likelihood of sweeping policy changes. Others worry that Washington won't be able to address serious fiscal challenges. But remember something important: The stock market doesn't rise or fall simply because politicians agree or disagree. Corporate profits, inflation, interest rates and economic growth still drive long-term investment performance. And historical political averages don't prove that congressional control caused those returns. First, corporate earnings. Companies making more money can support higher stock prices regardless of who's running Congress. Second, interest rates. Federal Reserve decisions and inflation could have a much bigger impact on your portfolio than congressional gridlock. Will see another two or three rate hikes if inflation stays stubborn? WHAT THE 2026 MIDTERM RESULTS MEAN FOR CAPITOL HILL Third, taxes. Major changes to corporate, capital gains or individual income taxes would face significant political hurdles. Fourth, government spending and debt. Budget battles could affect Treasury yields, borrowing costs and investor confidence. We are still more than $40 trillion in debt. These are the issues that can actually affect your financial future. I've spent decades watching investors make one of the biggest mistakes in personal finance. They confuse political disappointment with investment strategy. They sell stocks because they dislike the president. They move into cash because they dislike Congress. Then they wait for an election result that makes them comfortable. Meanwhile, the stock market keeps moving. Here's the reality: A 4.9% historical average doesn't mean your portfolio will earn 4.9% in 2027. And a 15.4% post-midterm average doesn't guarantee a rally. History gives us perspective, not a crystal ball. If you're retiring next year, make sure your portfolio can handle volatility. If retirement is 20 years away, don't let one election derail a long-term investment strategy. Because here's the most important financial lesson from this election. Your 401(k) doesn't have a political affiliation. It doesn’t vote red or blue, it’s always voting green. CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINION And the fastest way to turn a political disappointment into a financial disaster is to let your emotions make your investment decisions.

The good news is that there's no need to fight with your relatives about politics this Thanksgiving because all the yelling in the world isn't going to make this a close race. Don't get me wrong, I'm just as annoyed with your blue-haired aunt who drove here with a COVID mask on in her Subaru just to interrupt the football game and tell you the Dallas Cowboys are playing on stolen land. But give Hazel and all six of her cats the win because Tuesday night was THEIR Super Bowl and Republicans didn't even bother to field a team. TRUMP'S GAMBLE ON KEN PAXTON BACKFIRES AS DEMOCRAT PULLS OFF HISTORIC TEXAS SENATE UPSET Think about it. Texas went blue statewide for the first time since 1992 and let's face it, Texas going blue is like Vegas going SOBER. Greg Abbott getting evicted from the governor's mansion by Gina Hinojosa was obviously a huge upset, but the fact that Democrats also won a Senate seat with the gender-obsessed James Talarico means it’s only a matter of time before "Remember the Alamo" becomes "Remember the Pronouns." Perhaps I shouldn’t be shocked that such a God-fearing state would elect a pastor who once said Jesus was non-binary, but in my defense, I go to church every Sunday and I’ve never heard "a reading from RuPaul to the Corinthians." BLUE WAVE NEARLY SWALLOWED SOME OF AMERICA'S REDDEST STATES AS ELECTION DATA EXPOSES GOP'S CLOSE CALLS Kansas elected a Democratic senator for the first time in 94 years. Yes, I'm serious. Prior to Adam Hilton’s big win on Tuesday night, the last Democrat to win a Senate seat in the Sunflower State was George McGill in 1932, which is seven years before "The Wizard of Oz" came out in 1939. Luckily, he was out of office by the time Dorothy followed the Yellow Brick Road, or the Democrats would've charged her a congestion fee. CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINION Don’t get me wrong, there were some upsides, like Florida electing Byron Donalds as its first Black governor in the state's history. Or, as the race-obsessed liberal media will say, NOTHING. (Funny how that works when there's a Republican involved) I was also thrilled to see Ashley Moody hold off the Socialist-Curious Angie Nixon for a Senate seat in the Sunshine State, but aside from that, the only other thing that went Red was our bottoms from getting spanked. So my best advice is to lean into Thanksgiving extra hard this year and enjoy a rare and badly needed cease-fire from all the political pugilism. Drink like you're rooming with Kamala.

In a lawsuit filed on Thursday, the Justice Department argued that in-state tuition for undocumented migrants discriminates against U.S. citizens because U.S. citizens living outside Pennsylvania are not eligible for the same reduced tuition rate. "Congress made a deliberate policy choice that states and their public institutions may not grant tuition benefits to illegal aliens unless those same benefits are made to all U.S. citizens," Assistant Attorney General Brett A. Shumate of the DOJ's Civil Division said in a statement. "This university has ignored that mandate. The Department will continue to challenge policies that unlawfully disadvantage American citizens," he continued. JUSTICE DEPARTMENT SUES COLORADO OVER IN-STATE TUITION AND FINANCIAL AID FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS The DOJ accused the university of violating federal law by "prioritizing the needs of illegal aliens over U.S. citizens in defiance of Congress’s commands." Penn State's policy "unconstitutionally" discriminates against U.S. citizens who are not afforded the same reduced tuition rate as undocumented students, the department said. The department seeks to enjoin the university from enforcing its policy that provides undocumented students, including illegal migrants who live in Pennsylvania, with in-state tuition rates, regardless of whether the students are lawfully in the U.S. DOJ SUES NEW JERSEY OVER LAWS GIVING ILLEGAL ALIENS IN-STATE TUITION, SAYS CITIZENS TREATED AS 'SECOND-CLASS' The complaint also aims to enjoin the institution from adopting any new tuition policies that favor undocumented students over U.S. citizens. According to Penn State's website, undocumented students with or without Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) status may be eligible for in-state tuition if they meet certain residency requirements. "These requirements include attending an accredited Pennsylvania high school for at least four years and graduating from an accredited Pennsylvania high school or receiving a Pennsylvania General Educational Development (GED) certificate," the school's website reads. FOX News Digital has reached out to the university for comment on the DOJ's lawsuit. Thursday's lawsuit brings the DOJ's total to 27 lawsuits challenging in-state tuition for illegal migrants, including six lawsuits in Texas, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Illinois and Kansas that have resulted in favorable orders for the federal government. "The Department of Justice today continues its efforts to ensure that no state law or university policy gives preferential treatment to illegal aliens over our Nation’s own citizens," Associate Attorney General Stanley E. Woodward, Jr. said in a statement. "Congress long ago made clear that states, through their public universities, cannot give reduced tuition to illegal aliens not available to all Americans."

Ansari Outlines First Reelection Goals: Prosecute Trump And Stop AI Development By Staff Reporter | Arizona’s only female member of Congress wants to focus her next term on rallying her fellow Democrats behind prosecuting President Donald Trump and stopping AI development. Rep. Yassamin Ansari (D-AZ-03) cruised to victory on Tuesday, unhindered due to the absence of a formal Republican opponent.  Ansari’s main opponents were No Labels Party candidate Alan Averesa and Green Party candidate David Redkey. Jacob Parkman, a Republican, pulled nearly 1,300 votes as an adjudicated write-in candidate.  As polls began to close across the nation on Tuesday, early results made clear that Democrats had flipped a massive number of federal, state, and down-the-ballot seats — especially in Arizona, where the Democrats retained their triplex, are poised to flip several House seats, and on their way to cinching a trifecta with a historic flip of the state legislature.  The Democrats took control of both the House and Senate, flipping 30 seats in the House and 7 seats in the Senate as of this report. The party also secured its first majority of governorships in 16 years, flipping seats to gain control in Georgia, Iowa, Nevada, Ohio, and Texas.  The party flipped three secretary of state seats, in Georgia, Indiana, and Ohio, along with three attorney general seats, in Georgia, Iowa, and Texas. Nine states also face potential shakeups in state legislatures that were previously under Republican control.  About two hours after the polls had closed, Ansari issued her first response to the initial waves of election results. “Thank you, Mr. President. Our thank you will come in January — with subpoenas,” said Ansari.  Thank you, Mr. President. Our thank you will come in January – with subpoenas. — Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari (@RepYassAnsari) November 4, 2026 Ansari made similar comments during the Arizona Democratic Party’s Election Night gathering on Tuesday. “The very top priorities are to investigate this administration and investigate this administration, investigate their corruption,” said Ansari. Ansari has also called for the impeachment of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.  Impeach Pete Hegseth https://t.co/r1DfqJ34aZ — Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari (@RepYassAnsari) November 4, 2026 The most robust call to action by Ansari following Election Day by far, however, has concerned artificial intelligence. “Top of the Democratic agenda on day 1 needs to be a pause on advanced AI development, regulation of this out of control industry, and a ban on artificial superintelligence,” said Ansari.  Top of the Democratic agenda on day 1 needs to be a pause on advanced AI development, regulation of this out of control industry, and a ban on artificial superintelligence. — Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari (@RepYassAnsari) November 4, 2026 The proposal sparked criticism from members of the public, who challenged that AI was serious support for the nation’s crippled economy.  “Agree, we gotta end the only thing propping up the economy,” said one user.  agree, we gotta end the only thing propping up the economy https://t.co/ysw57bv0IN — Shibetoshi Nakamoto (@BillyM2k) November 5, 2026 Other users said an end to AI development would make the U.S. vulnerable to its biggest foreign threats, namely China.  the CCP watching Democrats kneecap America's AI industry https://t.co/FAJf4fausG pic.twitter.com/F9OD5LRdA7 — Robert Sterling (@RobertMSterling) November 5, 2026 It's crazy, harmful, and it'll surrender the future to China But it does seem to be what the electorate wants https://t.co/y3hoolzcLW — Crémieux (@cremieuxrecueil) November 5, 2026 Ansari also dismissed and mocked voter concerns regarding Islam. The congresswoman indicated that the midterm election results proved that Americans welcome the Islamic religion.  “‘Voters rejecting Islamophobia a lot louder than many people in national media.’ This,” said Ansari. “‘Per Sharia law, everyone is trans starting tomorrow.’ Sad I didn’t come up with this one.” Sad I didn’t come up with this one https://t.co/flz9feWlWJ — Yassamin Ansari (@yassaminansari) November 4, 2026 AZ Free News is your #1 source for Arizona news and politics.

In the Congressional District 1 race, Republican candidate Jay Feely conceded to Democratic candidate Amish Shah. “Our country is at a crossroads: do we continue to flourish, or devolve into socialism and the inevitable economic regression that follows? While this election may be over, that fight for our future has only just begun,” said Feely. “My love for this country and my belief in its future are stronger than ever; America’s best days are still ahead. God bless you, and God bless America.”  Thank you, Arizona 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/wmD9WuNwUI — Jay Feely (@jayfeely) November 5, 2026 Shah promised to be a bipartisan congressman.  “Let’s end the political toxicity and work on lowering costs, expanding health care coverage, solving our water crisis, and growing our economy,” said Shah.  Arizona, it’s the honor of a lifetime to be your next congressman. pic.twitter.com/RUzwWJWF2B — Amish Shah, MD (@DrAmishShah) November 5, 2026 In the Congressional District 6 race, Republican incumbent Juan Ciscomani conceded to Democratic candidate JoAnna Mendoza. Ciscomani was elected to represent the district in 2022, and was the first naturalized citizen from Mexico elected to the House of Representatives in state history.  “As an immigrant and the son of a bus driver, I believe deeply in our country and the promise of the American Dream,” said Ciscomani. “My story is only possible in this great nation, and I’ll never stop fighting for the values that make the United States of America the best nation in the world.” Serving the people of Arizona’s 6th Congressional District for the last four years has been the honor of my lifetime. Laura and I are forever grateful for your support, your prayers, and the love you have shown our family. THANK YOU 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/os7zMCOvOo — Juan Ciscomani (@JuanCiscomani) November 5, 2026 Mendoza said in a statement that Ciscomani called her to concede the race and congratulate her.  “Elections are about choices. Governing is about service. While we may disagree on policy and politics, our shared responsibility is to the people of Southern Arizona,” said Mendoza. “Country over party. Service above self. Southern Arizona always.”  Now the work begins. pic.twitter.com/9u6JtlThrA — JoAnna Mendoza (@Mendoza4AZ) November 5, 2026 Congressional districts 1 and 6 represent two seats flipped in the state. As of this report, Democrats have flipped 41 seats in the House and 7 seats in the Senate.  Democratic Reps. Yassamin Ansari (AZ-03), Greg Stanton (AZ-04), and Adelita Grijalva (AZ-07), along with Republican Rep. Paul Gosar (AZ-09), secured reelection handily.  Republican Reps. Eli Crane (AZ-02) and Abraham Hamadeh (AZ-08) each face a highly competitive challenge to their reelection bids. Crane maintains a lead of less than 4,000 votes with 93% of votes tabulated. Hamadeh maintains a lead of less than 8,000 votes with 88% of votes tabulated. Republican candidate Mark Lamb, who seeks to take over Republican Rep. Andy Biggs’ seat in Congressional District 5, maintains a lead of more than 7,000 votes with 89% of votes tabulated.  In the Arizona treasurer race, Republican candidate Elijah Norton conceded to Democratic candidate Nick Mansour. Norton called on the Arizona Republican Party to reflect on the many seats flipped in the state and reorganize. “I will always believe that our message of low taxes, economic growth, and low regulation always work. We need to do a better job of communicating that and sticking to our commitments to Arizonans and Americans,” said Norton. “Clearly people felt all across the country we failed on our promises in 2024 — and they punished us in 2026 — as they have a right to do. Let us look forward on a better path to uniting this state and country so we can do better in 2028 and beyond.”  Please see statement below. @MansourforAZ ran a good campaign and I hope and pray for his success as our next Treasurer. pic.twitter.com/1YQ9CSaWLf — Elijah Norton (@NortonforAZ) November 5, 2026 Similar to Shah and Mendoza, Mansour also promised bipartisanship in his administration of the treasurer’s office. “From day one of this campaign, I promised to be a Treasurer who will keep politics out of the office, make every dollar work harder for Arizona families, and commit to funding education… and that is exactly what I’m going to do,” said Mansour.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aed789c69fbdcb35dec22d2 Wisconsin infant dies of measles as state sees first death from disease since 1990 te 2026-11-06T06:50:04.893Z Wisconsin infant dies of measles as state sees first death from disease since 1990 An infant in Wisconsin died of measles, marking the state’s first death linked to the disease in 36 years, the state's Department of Health Services announced on Thursday. The Department of Health Services said the child died in southwestern Wisconsin but did not provide a more precise location. The department said it would not release any additional details to protect the privacy of the family. The coroner listed the immediate cause of death as measles. "It is with a heavy heart we are reporting the first death of an infant connected with a measles outbreak in Wisconsin in many years. My heart is broken for the family," state Department of Health Services Secretary Kirsten Johnson said in a statement. CHILD'S MEASLES DEATH MARKS NEW YORK STATE'S FIRST IN MORE THAN 30 YEARS AMID OUTBREAK "Any death of a child is a tragedy and even more so when it is related to a vaccine-preventable disease. Measles can cause serious illness and death, and it is important for all Wisconsinites to evaluate their risk and take steps to protect themselves and their family," she continued. Measles can cause life-threatening complications, including pneumonia and swelling of the brain. The department said that while anyone can become seriously ill, children younger than 5, pregnant people and people with weakened immune systems are at increased risk of complications. Wisconsin has reported 431 measles cases in 13 counties so far this year, reflecting the highest number of cases seen in the state in more than 35 years. Among these cases, nine people required hospitalization for severe symptoms. State officials urged Wisconsinites to be proactive in preventing illness to protect themselves and their communities, saying the best way to prevent measles is with the measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services previously told FOX News Digital that "Secretary Kennedy and CDC Director Dr. Erica Schwartz continue to make clear that the MMR vaccine is the most effective way to prevent measles." Earlier this week, a child in New York state's Lewis County died in the first known measles-associated death in the state in more than 30 years. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said she was "heartbroken" to learn of the child's death. "As a mother and grandmother, I cannot imagine what this family is going through. My heart goes out to everyone who knew and loved this child," Hochul said in a statement. NEW YORK DECLARES MEASLES DISASTER EMERGENCY AS CASES SURGE IN PENNSYLVANIA The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has reported four measles-associated deaths across the country this year, although state health departments have reported higher figures. In Pennsylvania, state health officials have confirmed six measles-associated deaths in 2026 and are investigating another reported death that has not yet met the state's criteria to be classified as measles-associated.

Lakewood police said officers responded to a report of a suspicious person near the intersection of Colfax Avenue and Wadsworth Boulevard around 6:30 p.m., where they encountered a suspect attempting to board a bus. The suspect opened fire on officers, striking four of them, Lakewood Police Public Information Officer John Romero said during a news conference. "We are very sorry to report that one of those agents has been pronounced dead of their injuries," Romero said. FOUR DEAD, INCLUDING WASHINGTON DEPUTY, FOLLOWING DOMESTIC CALL SHOOTING; ANOTHER DEPUTY ON LIFE SUPPORT The suspect was shot by police and pronounced dead at the scene, Romero said. A civilian was also injured and transported to a local hospital. Police did not immediately provide details about the extent of the injuries or the conditions of the three surviving officers. Authorities said the suspect was attempting to board a Regional Transportation District (RTD) bus when officers approached. CHICAGO HOSPITAL SHOOTING LEAVES 1 OFFICER DEAD, OTHER 'FIGHTING FOR HIS LIFE'; SUSPECT IN CUSTODY "Within seconds of agents approaching the suspect, the suspect opened fire on our agents," Romero said. Romero also delivered an emotional message to the fallen officer's family: "We just want the family to know that we love them, that we're here for them, and Lakewood Police Department is a family, and we will be here for each other." Colorado Gov. Jared Polis released a statement following the deadly shooting. "Law enforcement put their lives on the line for our safety everyday and I am heartbroken to learn that a Lakewood Police Agent was killed in the line of duty this evening," Polis wrote. "My heart goes out to their family and friends," he continued. "My thoughts are also with the three agents who are still receiving care at area hospitals, as well as the civilian who was wounded, and I wish them a full and speedy recovery. Thank you to law enforcement who run into danger to keep us safe and to protect our communities." Polis said the Colorado State Patrol was assisting at the scene and participating in a procession from the hospital honoring the fallen officer. The Jefferson County Critical Incident Response Team is leading the investigation into the officer-involved shooting, with support from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. RTD also released a statement saying it was "deeply concerned" by the shooting. "Our thoughts are with those affected directly by this incident," the statement read. "The safety and well-being of our customers, employees, and partners remain our highest priority."

The federal panel approved construction of the 250-foot-tall structure, which is inspired by Paris' Arc de Triomphe and intended to attract visitors crossing the Memorial Bridge from Arlington National Cemetery into the nation's capital. The panel voted 8-4 in favor of the project following a public hearing, giving the green light for construction to begin, potentially as soon as this week, according to administration officials. Mark Paoletta, the commission's Trump-appointed chairman, expressed support for the new structure during the panel's meeting. SEN JIM BANKS: TRUMP’S NEW TRIUMPHAL ARCH IS A MONUMENT TO AMERICAN GREATNESS "President Trump understands as president and a superb builder that it's important to our national identity to display who we are through grand monuments," Paoletta said. Paoletta, who also serves as general counsel for the White House Office of Management and Budget, pointed to Trump's admiration for similar monuments around the world. "As Trump has often remarked, the great cities around the world have arches: Paris, Rome, London," Paoletta said. TRUMP SAYS NEW ARCH WILL ALSO DEPLOY DRONES, POSITION SNIPERS AND STORE AMMO The proposed structure would be clad in granite and topped with three golden statues. Trump has previously said the triumphal arch would be converted into a military complex capable of rapidly deploying large numbers of drones, with snipers positioned on the roof and plaza areas. He also said the complex would store "large quantities of sniper ammunition." The project has drawn criticism from preservationists, lawmakers and veterans, who argue that it could disrupt views of the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery. Opponents have also questioned whether the project requires congressional approval under federal law. The National Capital Planning Commission previously approved the site and preliminary plans.

The Jaguars were heavily favored going into the game, as third-string quarterback Joe Fagnano, who took over as the team’s emergency signal caller last week following the injuries to both Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley, got his first career start. Yes, the Ravens traded for Jacoby Brissett when the Arizona Cardinals demoted him to third string earlier this week, but he wasn’t ready on a short week to take over Declan Doyle’s offense and compete. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE But, boy, does Brissett need to get right quickly if the Ravens have any hope of reaching the playoffs. That’s the biggest takeaway from this game, because the Jaguars didn’t really need to do all too much after scoring on their opening drive of the game. It was clear Doyle was going to be creative, or as much as he possibly could, with Fagnano very green under center. THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW! However, Fagnano, despite being a fun story to begin a new week in the NFL, isn’t what the Ravens need after a devastating injury to the two-time MVP in Jackson and Huntley going down. Brissett is the only saving grace for a Ravens season that almost seems at the brink of disaster even though they only fell to 4-4 on the year. Fagnano was 10-of-18 passing for only 80 yards, as some heavy rain in Baltimore didn’t help the fact that Jacksonville was all over what the Ravens were trying to do in the first place. The ball was wet, leading to a few fumbles, while Fagnano couldn’t handle the pressure the Jaguars threw at him on his clear pass downs, leading to two interceptions. The body language on the Baltimore sideline was clear – it wasn’t going to be their night. Meanwhile, Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars looked clean and poised coming off the bye week. Bhayshul Tuten, who was questionable entering the game due to injury, suited up and scored the first touchdown of the game. Then, Lawrence found Parker Washington before the end of the first half on a 50-yard catch-and-run touchdown that almost felt like a kill shot after what we witnessed with the Ravens’ offense in half. At 17-3 to start the second half, Fagnano threw his first interception, followed by two punts, a turnover-on-downs, his second interception, and a fumble on the kickoff. Chris Rodriguez Jr. smashed it in for a touchdown in the fourth quarter that made it 33-3, and if it weren’t for Justice Hill’s 65-yard run on the ensuing drive, Baltimore likely wouldn’t have sniffed the end zone in a game they’ll look to forget and move on to next week. With a meeting against the lowly Los Angeles Chargers on "Monday Night Football" upcoming, Brissett has more than enough time to get acclimated. Because for Ravens fans, that’s really the only thing to look forward to as they hope and pray his passing prowess can get them back to being a playoff team after losing their last four.

Trash a politician, start a bar fight, or get ejected on live TV, and you will survive the week. But suggest music's biggest billionaire is a bandwagon fan? Good luck. Enter Knicks guard Tyler Kolek. During an NBA 2K stream on TikTok with teammate Deuce McBride, the two were asked to name the fakest celebrity fan they ran into during New York's historic title run. Most athletes would sweat the answer and name a random influencer. But Kolek aimed right at the throne. ESPN'S MONICA MCNUTT APOLOGIZES TO TAYLOR SWIFT, BUT HER COMMENTARY FOLLOWS AN UGLY TREND "Maybe Taylor Swift?" Kolek said. "I don't know if I've seen her at any other games." "I would agree. Swifties not gonna like that answer," Deuce McBride responded. THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW! Kolek continued, "Everyone else is usually solid. Like Ben Stiller, Tracy Morgan; I guess she's got a lot going on, so she can't come all the time." And with that, the friendship bracelet mob is already mobilizing. But Kolek hit the bullseye. NFL LEGEND EMMITT SMITH DEFENDS TAYLOR SWIFT AS HER PRESENCE AT GAMES DRAWS IRE OF FOOTBALL FANS Taylor showing up to the baseline with the HAIM sisters in punny "Stevie Knicks" shirts was textbook performative branding. It had nothing to do with New York basketball; it was all about hijacking the spotlight. NFL fans have spent seasons getting hit with broadcast cutaways every three plays, so Taylor Swift could chest-bump Brittany Mahomes in a luxury suite and pretend she had been braving freezing wind chills at Arrowhead Stadium her whole life. Swifties are already melting down in Kolek's mentions, but the kid called it like he saw it. If you skipped five decades of pure misery, don't show up for the ring.

The first triple execution this year took place on Aug. 13, when Oklahoma, Tennessee and Alabama executed three inmates within hours of each other. Before Aug. 13, the last time three executions were carried out in the U.S. on the same day was Jan. 7, 2010. On Thursday, Indiana officials put to death the first inmate of the day when they executed Jeffrey Weisheit, 50, for setting a 2010 house fire that killed his girlfriend's two children, ages 8 and 5, as the couple's relationship deteriorated. He was pronounced dead at 12:45 a.m. at the Indiana State Prison in Michigan City after receiving a lethal injection. His attorneys sought permission for additional brain scans, arguing that his history of head injuries and mental health problems warranted further examination. Republican Gov. Mike Braun denied the request. Braun also rejected appeals to commute Weisheit's death sentence to life in prison. INDIANA EXECUTES MAN CONVICTED OF KILLING 2 CHILDREN AS MORE US EXECUTIONS LOOM THURSDAY Weisheit's lawyers had also raised separate concerns about Indiana's planned use of execution drugs obtained from a pharmacy facing a disciplinary hearing before the Indiana Pharmacy Board next week. But the Indiana Department of Correction maintained that it was confident in its ability to carry out the execution "humanely." Following the execution, Braun said Weisheit's case had undergone repeated reviews in state and federal courts. "These reviews have never resulted in an overturned sentence," Braun said in a statement. "Today, Weisheit's sentence has been carried out as ordered by the court." The execution provided "long-awaited justice for Alyssa Lynch and her brother Caleb, two innocent children whose lives were stolen in an act of unspeakable cruelty," Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita said. In Florida, Jesse Guardado, 64, was executed after confessing and pleading guilty to fatally stabbing a 75-year-old woman who had helped him find a job and housing in 2004. Guardado killed Jackie Malone inside her home before stealing her jewelry box, $80 and other items to fund his drug addiction. Guardado was pronounced dead at 6:13 p.m. following a lethal injection at Florida State Prison near Starke. Florida's latest execution matched last year's state record total of 19 inmates put to death in a single year. Florida has ramped up executions as Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis has signed a series of death warrants since 2025. The state's 19 executions last year was more than under any other Florida governor in a single year since the death penalty was reinstated in 1976. Those executions accounted for roughly 40% of the 47 carried out nationwide in 2025. FLORIDA PUTS 77-YEAR-OLD MAN TO DEATH FOR DEPUTY'S MURDER AS STATE CLOSES IN ON EXECUTION RECORD The Sunshine State has also accounted for more than half of the 35 executions carried out nationwide, which includes Thursday's executions. In July, Florida executed two prisoners on the same day, marking the first double execution by a single state in nearly a decade. Alabama capped off the triple execution day by putting Michael Taylor, 54, to death for the 1991 murders of an older couple who were beaten to death with a metal bar during a robbery inside their home. Authorities caught Taylor in Birmingham, about an hour away, with the victims' Cadillac. Taylor was executed by lethal injection after a judge ruled against his attorneys' objections to the method. Taylor had previously requested execution by nitrogen gas, and his attorneys sought to preserve that choice. His attorneys said he "knew the depth of the harm he caused" and "grieved it for the rest of his life." They also said he became a changed man while behind bars, saying, "Michael’s life was proof that God isn’t finished with any of us. Tonight we pray that both families find peace, and we deeply mourn the loss of Michael." Death penalty opponents had urged Republican Gov. Kay Ivey to commute Taylor's sentence to life in prison, arguing that he was too young and immature at 19 to fully understand the consequences of his actions. But the governor declined to stop the execution. Ivey issued a statement on Thursday night describing his actions as "reprehensible." "35 years ago yesterday, Ivan and Lucille Moore kindly opened their home to Michael Taylor. Mr. Taylor repaid the Moores by beating them to death with a metal bar, all to rob them for money to buy clothing and jewelry," she said. The victims' family thanked the state attorney general's office for bringing closure to the case, but expressed disappointment for having to wait 35 years to see the death sentence carried out. "We know that a person has the right to appeal, but there should come a time when the jury’s decision is final. For all these years, our family has had to live with the waiting, the delays, and the uncertainty," the statement read. "We have never forgotten our loved ones or what was taken from us." The executions come amid renewed scrutiny of lethal injection procedures following a failed execution attempt in Tennessee, where death row inmate Christa Pike survived two doses of pentobarbital and was rushed to a hospital in late September. She has since been released from the hospital and returned to prison. Thursday's executions came on the same day California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom announced he is seeking to commute all 548 death sentences in the Golden State to life without parole, though 382 of the commutations require a recommendation from the California Supreme Court, saying he believes "state-sanctioned killing is incompatible with California’s values, undermines the foundations of our legal system, and diminishes each of us." Newsom, who put a moratorium on executions in the state in 2019, said he "knew we cannot execute people in our imperfect legal system and remain true to our core values, the first among them justice and human decency."

Well, the winless Los Angeles Chargers are not going to do the same thing anymore. Offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel is going to start calling plays from the booth instead of the sideline amid his unit’s tremendous struggles. The Chargers haven’t scored a touchdown on 27 straight drives, a drought spanning nine quarters. "One of the things I want to try is call plays from the box to kind of see adjustments for myself and communicate with position coaches appropriately what things we can focus on between series," McDaniel told reporters Thursday. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE With McDaniel calling the plays for star quarterback Justin Herbert, many thought the Chargers would have one of the best offenses in football entering the season. Instead, the Chargers' offense has had minimal voltage. The Chargers have scored just 14.1 points per game, the fewest in the NFL. McDaniel said the one thing coaches lose by working in the booth is face-to-face communication on the sideline, but he trusts the position coaches to set the tone. "Seems like a good action to take based on how things have gone this year, and realistically something that I’ve only brought up because I’m very confident in the rest of the offensive coaching staff and how they’re able to set the tone and communicate information on the sidelines," McDaniel said.

The former Miami Dolphins head coach hasn’t coached from the booth since he was the offensive coordinator for the San Francisco 49ers in 2021. He compared sitting in the booth to watching film. "It’s like watching tape. You train yourself over time to see the game on the field. One of the reasons I stand behind the ball so far is so that I can try to get a visual of all 22 [players], because [otherwise] you’re so close to the ball you can kind of have your periphery shut out," McDaniel said. "That’s not the case from the box. In an ideal world, if all things are equal and there’s no negative from not being on the field, you can see the game better from up there." The beleaguered offensive coordinator had better hope the change works because he is squarely on the hot seat. McDaniel said head coach Jim Harbaugh approved the switch.

The first clip Santander shared featured a preacher claiming Islam is "driven by war" and that there is "no such thing as kind Muslims." The second video raised a separate issue. It focused on Michigan's U.S. Senate race, won by Democrat Abdulrahim El-Sayed, questioning the influence of Sharia principles and how that doctrine misaligns with the U.S. Constitution. UNEARTHED CLIP EXPOSES CLASH BETWEEN EL-SAYED AND EX-GOP RIVAL: 'MUSLIMS DEFINITELY HATE YOU' Nobody gets a pass in American politics, and asking how a newly elected leader views the law is entirely legitimate. Santander, a native of Margarita, Venezuela, watched political movements systematically transform his home country's legal institutions and economy. From that perspective, questioning fundamental ideological shifts in religion and politics is second nature for someone who watched his homeland unravel. It is also hard to imagine Santander facing anywhere near this level of pushback had the video targeted Christianity, but that selective outrage is nothing new. But mainstream media coverage avoids the political question entirely and uses the preacher's remarks to dismiss any scrutiny of newly elected lawmakers and mock Santander for objecting. As calls for team action grew, the Toronto Blue Jays addressed the matter without issuing an apology on Santander's behalf or handing down discipline. Their statement read, "Baseball is for everyone, and the Blue Jays have created an inclusive experience where all fans feel welcome at our ballpark.

On March 12, a man drove a truck into Temple Israel in West Bloomfield Township and exchanged gunfire with security personnel before killing himself, according to authorities. El-Sayed condemned the attack but drew criticism for subsequently saying "Hurt people, hurt people," referring to the attacker's relatives who had been killed in an Israeli airstrike in Lebanon. "Your response, that, ‘Hurt people, hurt people’ after the Temple Israel attack in Michigan in March, really stuck with a lot of people," Haines said. "And you did apologize for that. But it took you a while to, it took about five months to seemingly understand why that landed wrong with people and voters and constituents." "You know, do you think that leaders have a responsibility to challenge the extremist views in their own religion, especially considering you're the first Muslim senator of the United States?" she asked. ABDUL EL-SAYED HITS BACK AT ISRAEL QUESTIONS, SUGGESTS HIS NAME AND FAITH ARE BEHIND PRESS SCRUTINY "Yeah, well, I really appreciate that question," El-Sayed said. "And I agree with you entirely that we want to live in a world where faith is something that's used to uplift all of us, rather than to justify the worst human actions that sometimes drag us down." He recalled having visited the temple after the attack and having been there for a bar-mitzvah in his youth. "You know, I condemned it immediately, and I wanted to offer context, but ... You know, when people are hurting, context is secondary, and I just should have stood with their pain, and I learned from that experience, and I'm not above apologizing when I make a mistake." El-Sayed continued and said he had tried to "offer context around the fact that that individual had lost a child, niece and nephew in an airstrike. And I want us to be thinking a little bit about, A, how we demonstrate our ability as leaders to stand with people's pain with no exceptions and no asterisks around them? And also be able to have an adult conversation about the ways in which actions ricochet around the world and create worse for all of us." "I respect that. I just think that if that had been done anywhere near what I believed, I would be so furiously enraged that they would use the words that I have led my life with to hurt people that way," Haines said. "And that was young kids. So I just was surprised it took a minute for you to understand that part." "I hear you on that," El-Sayed said. "Better late than never," co-host Joy Behar said. 'THE VIEW' CO-HOSTS DEFEND EL-SAYED COMPARING HIMSELF TO JFK OVER MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD SCRUTINY Jesse Arm, a vice president at the Manhattan Institute and a pollster originally from Michigan, told Fox News Digital, "Imagine an American politician responding to Dylann Roof’s massacre of black worshippers at Bible study by saying ‘Hurt people, hurt people,’ then asking us to consider the killer’s grievances. That politician would rightly be run out of American public life."  "Why should the standard be any different when the targets are Jewish children and the attacker is an Islamist?" he asked. "El-Sayed’s comments were grotesque, and this interview compounds the problem," Arm continued. "He’s still presenting his mistake as a matter of timing—as though the same rationalization would have been acceptable once the victims had time to grieve. The problem wasn’t when he offered it. The problem was suggesting that events overseas somehow mitigate responsibility for trying to massacre Americans at home." CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE "Whatever someone has suffered, there is no justification for attacking a synagogue full of children. None," Arm wrote. "Americans deserve leaders who can say that without pivoting to the terrorist’s pain.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aed28f869fbdcb35dec0dbd Affordability drove Baltimore voters to approve measure giving 'direct cash' to new mothers te 2026-11-06T01:10:16.320Z Affordability drove Baltimore voters to approve measure giving 'direct cash' to new mothers Baltimore voters approved a ballot measure Tuesday to establish a taxpayer-funded program providing cash assistance to new and expectant parents as families across the country grapple with affordability concerns. The measure, listed on the November ballot as Question I, amends the Baltimore City Charter to create a dedicated, permanent line item in the municipal budget for the "Baltimore Baby Fund." It passed by roughly a 70-30 margin after organizers submitted more than the 10,000 valid signatures required to qualify for the vote. Under the approved charter amendment, the city must allocate 3 cents per $100 of assessed taxable property value directly into the dedicated fund, which is expected to generate approximately $17 million in its first year. According to the mayor's office, all Baltimore City newborns enrolled in the program will be eligible for a one-time cash payment. Eligible expectant and new parents may receive additional financial assistance, such as a one-time cash payment during pregnancy or monthly cash assistance and other forms of support. The Baltimore City Council will retain authority over specific disbursement rules and eligibility criteria through future enabling legislation. FORMER CALIFORNIA MAYOR PUSHES GUARANTEED INCOME AS FIX FOR AFFORDABILITY CRISIS The initiative was championed by grassroots organizers with the Maryland Child Alliance alongside Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott, who serves as a national co-chair of Mayors for Guaranteed Income. "We aren’t surprised that Baltimore voters saw the value in a baby fund to offer new parents direct cash," Shafeka Hashash, director of cash initiatives at the Economic Security Project (ESP), told Fox News Digital. The ESP, an organization that has backed the creation of dozens of guaranteed income programs nationwide, pointed to mounting cost-of-living pressures facing American families as a primary catalyst for direct cash initiatives. "Right now, as the cost of the basics like groceries, gas, healthcare, and childcare continues to rise, paychecks haven’t kept up, and families can’t make ends meet," Hashash said. "Then for new parents, the affordability crisis is compounded by an increase in new costs; this is why poverty rises 45% from the last month of pregnancy to the first month after birth."  PRO-LIFE VS SOCIALISM: GOP LAWMAKERS DIVIDED OVER CONTROVERSIAL GUARANTEED INCOME PROGRAMS Hashash noted that direct financial support provides immediate relief during a critical transition window for families. "In that exact critical moment, direct cash can cover everyday essentials like diapers or a new crib, or it can offer relief on the bigger financial strains, like the maternity ward bills or daycare payment. Voters understood this policy implicitly because it’s simple, and we know it will be efficient and effective. We are excited to see how Baltimore benefits with this new resource for families," Hashash added. According Baltimore public radio station WYPR, Emily Yu, campaign manager for the effort, praised the grassroots momentum behind the measure. "We are public servants and community members that wanted to make this happen, and it's pretty unbelievable that we made it happen," Yu reportedly said. "But it just speaks to the people power in Baltimore City. Clearly, there's an appetite for it, so I would encourage other groups to do the same." NEWSOM'S 'GOLDEN STATE START' PROMISES 400 FREE DIAPERS PER BABY AS CALIFORNIA GRAPPLES WITH BUDGET WOES Advocates with national guaranteed income coalitions also celebrated the ballot outcome. "People are excited about the idea of cash for new and expecting families because it works. We heard from Americans loud and clear on Tuesday that families across the political spectrum are concerned about two things: affordability and healthcare," Tegan Lecheler, national program director of the Mother & Infant Cash Coalition, told Fox News Digital. Founded in 2023, the Mother & Infant Cash Coalition grew out of a broader movement toward direct financial support for young families. Lecheler, who previously managed operations with The Bridge Project — an unrestricted cash transfer initiative launched in 2021 operating across multiple states — noted that momentum for direct cash assistance built rapidly during the COVID-19 pandemic. Lecheler argued that providing cash directly to families demonstrates that local governments are responsive to constituents' needs. "Programs giving cash to new families address both, and this ballot measure's passage is a clear example of government delivering results and being responsive to the concerns of constituents. The affordability crisis isn't something that gets left at home, it comes with voters to the voting booth. Politicians that listen and prioritize the issues that Americans face every day will likely continue to be successful," Lecheler said. The ballot measure builds on previous direct-cash programs in the city. Mayor Scott previously oversaw the Baltimore Young Families Success Fund, a pilot program that operated from August 2022 to July 2024. The program provided unconditional monthly payments of $1,000 to 200 low-income parents ages 18 to 24 earning at or below 300% of the federal poverty level using funds from the American Rescue Plan Act. Campaign manager Emily Yu and Mayor Brandon Scott did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s requests for comment.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aed269c69fbdcb35dec0d0a Vance ‘privately’ blasts Netanyahu as Iran war divides Trump admin, 2028 ambitions loom te 2026-11-06T01:00:12.739Z Vance ‘privately’ blasts Netanyahu as Iran war divides Trump admin, 2028 ambitions loom Vice President JD Vance privately accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of being "wrong on everything" about the Iran war, according to reports, as disagreements over the conflict expose tensions within the Trump administration and raise questions about Vance's potential 2028 presidential ambitions. The clash, reported by Axios Nov. 4., comes after Republicans lost control of both chambers of Congress in Tuesday's midterm elections, with Vance publicly blaming the war for the party's defeat while urging President Donald Trump to pursue a negotiated settlement rather than renewed military strikes. "The reason we lost is the war," Vance wrote later on Wednesday on X. "Low-level hostility between Vance and Netanyahu is beneficial for Vance," Nathan Sachs, a senior fellow at the Middle East Institute, told Fox News Digital. "It allows him to give some distance from the Trump administration, which has just taken a huge electoral beating, but also to position himself ... in a very different position than President Trump himself without attacking Trump." VANCE'S SCATHING IRAN WAR POSTMORTEM PUTS POTENTIAL 2028 GOP SHOWDOWN IN FOCUS: 'EVERYONE KNOWS WHY' Vance has also led a faction of senior administration officials urging Trump to negotiate an end to the conflict, warning that the unpopular war could cost Republicans control of Congress, according to reports. Netanyahu, meanwhile, had urged Trump to resume strikes against Iran ahead of the midterms, but Trump held off after endorsing Netanyahu for reelection in Israel. Sachs said Vance's main concern appeared to be the prospect of overthrowing Iran’s government after Netanyahu presented Trump with a plan for regime change. "Many opposition leaders in Israel, nonetheless, are very skeptical of the idea that you can bring about regime change through an air campaign," Sachs said, adding that such a campaign could have the opposite effect: "you may strengthen the regime." As previously reported by Fox News Digital, Vance had also declined to endorse Netanyahu’s reelection campaign and criticized Israeli government officials who opposed Trump's efforts to end the Iran war. The Israeli election further complicated the relationship, Sachs said, leaving Netanyahu's political future uncertain and raising the possibility that Vance could have to work with a different Israeli leader. NETANYAHU DEFIES EXIT POLLS AS VOTE SHIFTS IN HIS FAVOR, BUT MAJORITY REMAINS ELUSIVE "If Netanyahu is not the leader of Israel, Vance will find himself with another decision to make: does he continue with a line that is confrontational with a new Israeli leadership, or does he say, 'Well, it was all Netanyahu; now we can see a different path forward'?" Sachs said. "Netanyahu is a very easy target here, both because there are very real differences of opinion and Netanyahu's role was important, but also because this way he can criticize the war, criticize Netanyahu, and not say any bad word about Trump." Roughly 6 in 10 voters said U.S. military action against Iran was the wrong decision, according to the AP Voter Poll. "I think what's remarkable here is that it's coming out now," Sachs said. "And it's part of the fact that about midnight Wednesday, the next presidential campaign in the United States began, and JD Vance is trying to position himself." "He is breaking with the policy of President Trump, although he's doing so by criticizing Netanyahu, never Trump," the expert reiterated. VANCE REVEALS THE TRUMP DILEMMA THAT COULD COMPLICATE HIS 2028 WHITE HOUSE AMBITIONS Nonetheless, Vance has played a leading role in efforts to end the conflict with Iran, including direct outreach to senior Iranian officials. Last month, he sent a letter through Qatari intermediaries to Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, proposing renewed peace negotiations. According to Axios, the letter said any negotiations to prevent further U.S. military strikes must address Iran's nuclear program. A U.S. official said Trump backed the outreach. Rezaei later confirmed receiving the letter but said he had not responded. "My suspicion is that J.D. Vance was operating on behalf of Trump on this," Sachs claimed. "Trump, after the war sort of settled after the first few weeks, appointed Vice President Vance to try and negotiate the exit strategy, and Vance has been very keen on that." Sachs also cited Vance's involvement in an earlier memorandum of understanding with Iran as further evidence of his preference for diplomacy. "He agreed to the MOU, which has become quite notorious in the United States, giving quite a bit to the Iranians, much more than the administration is now considering reasonable." VANCE TAKES LEAD SELLING TRUMP’S IRAN GAMBLE AS RUBIO, HEGSETH AND RATCLIFFE CEDE SPOTLIGHT ON FRAGILE DEAL "Vance has certainly been on the side that has been trying to achieve a diplomatic breakthrough." The White House is now weighing whether to resume major strikes against Iran, maintain economic and naval pressure or pursue a negotiated settlement. On Thursday, Reuters reported that Tehran submitted a formal nuclear proposal to the United States through Qatari intermediaries, making further negotiations contingent on Washington addressing its seven demands. "The real question is whether the Americans and the Iranians can approach some kind of agreement on the fundamentals, starting with freedom of navigation in the Straits of Hormuz and the cessation of hostilities," Sachs said. For Vance, the dispute poses a political balancing act: distancing himself from a war he reportedly opposed while serving as vice president in the administration that launched it. "He was against the war, so it would seem, but of course, he's vice president in the administration that went to war," Sachs said, describing it as a "very difficult balancing act for him electorally."

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aed21e969fbdcb35dec0bcf Child molester's looming prison release reignites sanctuary showdown in wake of Dem election sweep te 2026-11-06T00:40:09.900Z Child molester's looming prison release reignites sanctuary showdown in wake of Dem election sweep A convicted child molester and illegal alien from Venezuela could soon be back on the streets unless authorities in Seattle ditch their sanctuary city policies and cooperate with federal immigration enforcement. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has sent to the liberal Pacific Northwest enclave a detainer request for Leomar Alexander Lopez Zambrano, asking that he be turned over rather than be released back into the U.S. after his prison sentence concludes. The clash between DHS and Seattle exacerbates longstanding tensions between President Donald Trump’s immigration officials and leaders in so-called "sanctuary cities," which that have thrown up roadblocks to law enforcement cooperating with federal enforcement authorities. Going a step further, the outcome of Tuesday's elections are putting even more of a microscope on the agency at the center of much controversy during Trump's second term — and raising questions over which administration officials could face the wrath of a brand new blue Congress. DEMOCRAT SEIZE HOUSE CONTROL IN STUNNING BLUE TSUNAMI, VOW RETRIBUTION AGAINST TRUMP ADMIN "Sanctuary politicians in Washington are refusing to honor the ICE detainer and hand this disgusting criminal over to us after he finishes his prison sentence," Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said in a statement. "This illegal alien has been convicted on TWO counts of child molestation." In the wake of the 2026 midterms, the moment in Seattle raises new questions of whether sanctuary cities will feel emboldened to double down on their efforts to block Trump's agenda as Democrats prepare to retake a majority in the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives. To those like Hans von Spakovsky, an immigration expert with Advancing American Freedom (AAF), the political tide turning in Washington, D.C. might encourage Democrat-run cities to go even further in stonewalling immigration enforcement agencies and making it harder for officials to do their jobs. "I have no doubt that sanctuary jurisdictions will feel emboldened," Spakovsky told Fox News Digital in the days after the Republican bloodbath. "I also would not put it past [Democrats] to try to impeach Tom Homan for imagined wrongs because he has been the most effective czar of immigration enforcement of any administration in the past 50 years," he said. "I don’t think they would be successful, but again, that will embolden defiance of federal immigration enforcement in sanctuary jurisdictions." In many cases, sanctuary cities simply cut off communication with federal law enforcement, as DHS fears will be the case with Zambrano, the convicted Venezuelan child molester. Zambrano is now approaching the end of a 15-month sentence — the point at which he would normally face deportation. But Mullin noted DHS would have no way of knowing when he was out of jail without Seattle's cooperation. ICE ARRESTS ILLEGAL ALIEN ACCUSED OF SEXUALLY ASSAULTING CHILDREN AFTER FAIRFAX COUNTY RELEASE: DHS "Sanctuary politicians care so much about illegal aliens that they’d rather release a convicted child molester than cooperate with federal law enforcement," Mullin said. When asked about Seattle’s cooperation with DHS, the agency responded by similarly emphasizing local-federal partnership. "The safest way to arrest and remove criminal illegal aliens from our streets is by lodging arrest detainers. Because some sanctuary jurisdictions refuse to work with ICE law enforcement, criminal illegal aliens are released from jails into American communities to perpetuate more crimes. Seven of the top 10 safest cities in the United States cooperate with ICE," the agency said in a statement. In the wake of the election, some Republican onlookers believe similar concerns could emerge in other states — even red ones like Texas. Dan Bongino, a conservative commentator and podcast host, noted that the Lone Star State’s newly elected Democratic governor, Gina Hinojosa, voted against sanctuary city restrictions as a state legislator in 2017.

Bongino said in a recent podcast. "The only message [voters] are sending is you want your state to become a sanctuary, sitting on the border with Mexico for illegals who come into the United States." Spakovsky believes that local resistance to immigration enforcement could coincide with congressional Democrats' legislative efforts. He believes Democrats will attempt to target immigration enforcement resources through the congressional appropriations process, although he cast doubt on their effectiveness. "Democrats will, no doubt, try to stop DHS from immigration enforcement and DOJ from prosecutions in the immigration area by trying to use the appropriations process to defund such enforcement at both agencies," Spakovsky said. "I am not sure they will be successful … especially if they tie such punitive measures with must-pass government funding that the president signs," he added. Asked about whether DHS was concerned about an emboldened stance from sanctuary cities as Democrats retake control in the nation’s capital, DHS passed a statement along from Mullin. "Deportations will continue," the DHS chief said. Officials from Seattle did not respond to requests for comment from Fox News Digital over Zambrano’s status.

They helped make the event happen. From preparing food and creating decorations to performing patriotic tributes and leading military ceremonies, students across the district played a central role in the gathering, which brought veterans, military families and community members together for its ninth year. “Our veterans have sacrificed so much, and this is a great way to demonstrate how to honor someone, how to say thank you, how to participate in gratitude and service by literally having our students help us produce this event,” said Superintendent Tracey Lopeman. Culinary students prepared the meal, while other students contributed artwork and decorations. Maricopa High School Air Force Junior ROTC cadets led the presentation of colors and Missing Man Table ceremony. The Desert Wind Middle School Dance Team performed a patriotic tribute to “Battle Hymn of the Republic.” Students also made cards for active-duty service members through the A Million Thanks program. “This is the way you teach service and honor and gratitude,” Lopeman said. MUSD Governing Board President Patti Coutre said the event recognizes not only veterans’ service but also the sacrifices made by their families. “It’s about being a part of the community and recognizing those who serve, the sacrifices they made, the family sacrifices that they made as well while their loved ones were gone,” Coutre said. According to Lopeman, the best part is watching the connections happen between generations.  “My favorite part is really the connection between the students and the community,” she said. “And then when they get to eat with us and talk with our community leaders and our other veterans, it’s just a wonderful connection between our youth and our veterans.” A view of service hats sit on a table inside Maricopa Unified School District Office on Nov. 5, 2026.

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/post/6aed1d3b3830286ffa39ffe4 Abdul El-Sayed's pattern of hostile exchanges with reporters draws scrutiny after viral moment te 2026-11-06T00:20:11.211Z Abdul El-Sayed's pattern of hostile exchanges with reporters draws scrutiny after viral moment Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed, D-Mich., went viral this week for his latest altercation with a reporter, putting a spotlight on a history of tense exchanges with the press. El-Sayed had a combative exchange with Sky News reporter James Matthews just hours before his victory during Tuesday's midterm elections. The exchange began when the British journalist attempted to question El-Sayed, but it was hardly the first time that El-Sayed appeared to either lose his temper, interrupt a journalist or respond sharply to a reporter. Heritage Foundation media fellow Tim Young is well aware that President Donald Trump also has a long history of criticizing reporters, but he believes the situations are "completely different." "El-Sayed gets angry at the media for asking actual questions about him and his relationship to organizations like the Muslim Brotherhood. He legitimately doesn’t want to answer those questions, so he snaps," Young told Fox News Digital. ABDUL EL-SAYED PUTS HANDS ON SKY NEWS REPORTER IN HOSTILE CONFRONTATION HOURS BEFORE ELECTION VICTORY "Trump gets asked the same narrative-shaping questions all the time, then watches networks create false narratives about him on air, which makes him angry," Young continued. "The two are not the same." El-Sayed recently scolded a reporter for asking him about Democratic Michigan Rep. Haley Stevens, sarcastically declaring, "You’re really asking the questions that the people want to hear." "Ask me a serious question," he added. El-Sayed also got testy with NBC News anchor Tom Llamas in October after Llamas questioned him about allegations involving his family's ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. "It’s funny to me. I was born in 1984, down the street in Rochester Hills. I was raised here in Michigan, went to the University of Michigan, rebuilt the health department in this city, led the health department in this county, and you want to ask me about Egypt in 1970? Are you serious?" he retorted. El-Sayed then accused Llamas of using "hearsay evidence from a tweet" and suggested the "NBC Nightly News" anchor was "not serious" before asking, "Are you insinuating that somehow, I was lying?" EL-SAYED MOCKS TRUMP, VANCE AND ROGERS IN GLOATING VICTORY SPEECH SIGNALING COMBATIVE TONE IN SENATE That same month, El-Sayed shut down Free Press reporter Audrey Fahlberg for asking about private comments he made on leaked audio regarding some Michigan residents mourning the death of Ayatollah Khamenei. El-Sayed insisted he would answer questions about gas prices and groceries but declined to "talk about leaked audio" and accused Fahlberg of seeking clickbait. "I’m just not interested in this dog and pony show," El-Sayed said. "Ask smart questions." Fahlberg responded that his thoughts on Khamenei were relevant, considering that he frequently discusses foreign policy, but El-Sayed refused to engage. Fahlberg later said that El-Sayed appeared to become furious whenever asked about the Iranian regime. Weeks later, El-Sayed clashed with Fox News "Special Report" anchor Bret Baier, repeatedly interrupting Baier during an exchange over the Muslim Brotherhood. El-Sayed has also spoken about confronting media personalities. "You know how many terrible things Bill Maher has said about people like me? Terrible, awful things," El-Sayed said during a September interview with Chuck Todd. "I would go on that show," El-Sayed continued. "I wanna give people the image of watching him get his a-- whooped on his own show by a guy who prays like I do." UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN STUDENTS RALLY BEHIND ABDUL EL-SAYED AFTER HIS SENATE WIN OVER MIKE ROGERS As for El-Sayed’s latest encounter, the viral Election Day moment occurred when he walked up to Matthews and asked, "Are you registered to vote in the state of Michigan?" "I'm not," the British U.S.-based correspondent responded. "Why would I care to have a conversation with you?" the Democrat fired back. After Matthews answered that he was a journalist, El-Sayed scoffed while responding, "in the U.K." "You know how many votes I want to get in the U.K.? Zero," El-Sayed told Mathews as he put both his hands on the reporter's shoulders. "I'm never running for office in the U.K." Matthews stressed that the 2026 U.S. midterm election "matters to the world" and told El-Sayed he was "bidding to be a senator." "A senator in where? What country? What country?" El-Sayed retorted while placing his hands on Matthews' shoulders again. "The United States," Matthews answered. "What country are you with?" El-Sayed then asked. "I'm based in the United States," Matthews said. "But you report for where? Where are your viewers?" El-Sayed interrupted. El-Sayed dismissed Matthews after the reporter explained that Sky News serves an international audience, insisting "Sky News is not viewed in the United States of America," then sneering that "like five people" watch the network in the US. "I've answered all the questions, I've answered all the questions for the viewers of the United Kingdom. So I'm going to ask you to stop chasing me around. Please," El-Sayed said before walking away. Matthews denied to El-Sayed he was "chasing" him around. "If you keep being in my way, I'm not going to be very happy," El-Sayed told the reporter. EL-SAYED MOCKS TRUMP, VANCE AND ROGERS IN GLOATING VICTORY SPEECH SIGNALING COMBATIVE TONE IN SENATE Footage of the incident quickly went viral and many observers criticized El-Sayed for physically touching the reporter. Piers Morgan called it "pathetic" and "very patronizing," Reason’s Reem Ibrahim said El-Sayed "looks like an absolute prick" and former Israeli spokesperson Eylon Levy called him a "bully." Students for Trump founder Ryan Fournier called the behavior "unhinged," while Spencer Pratt asked, "Why is this angry little Elf Sayed so comfortable putting hands on another man like that?" Communications trainer Jocelin Martinez, who provides media training and message development to clients, doesn’t feel El-Sayed needs to change his approach after he crushed Republican rival Mike Rogers in the critical Senate race for a seat Republicans were hoping to flip this election cycle. "El-Sayed's communication style got him elected in Michigan because the moment requires leadership with gumption," Martinez told Fox News Digital. The El-Sayed campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.  Fox News Digital’s Joseph A. Wulfsohn contributed to this report.

(Photo by Joe Rondone/The Arizona Republic/pool) Democrat challenger JoAnna Mendoza has beaten Republican incumbent Juan Ciscomani to take over the seat of the state’s most competitive district.   The Associated Press called the race for Mendoza Thursday afternoon, when she was up eight points.  Since it was created in 2021, Congressional District 6 has been Arizona’s most competitive district, with an electorate that is nearly evenly divided between Republicans and Democrats.  Ciscomani won his last two elections by 1.5% and 2.5%  The district has been a major target of national Democrats, who see the seat as key to flipping control of the U.S. House of Representatives.  A growing dislike of President Donald Trump and the fiscal impacts of his administration’s policies took center stage as Democrats sought to use that unpopularity against Republican incumbents across the country.  National Republican organizations connected to party leadership invested in Ciscomani’s race. House Speaker Mike Johnson’s joint fundraising committee, Grow the Majority, gave Ciscomani $530,210, more than all but two other Republican incumbents. And the former staffer for Gov. Doug Ducey has also received hundreds of thousands of dollars from both Majority Whip Tom Emmer’s committee, Emmer Majority Builders, and Majority Leader Steve Scalise’s Defend Our Majority.  All told, as of March, the GOP leadership committees had funneled $977,809 to Ciscomani for the 2026 election, nearly a quarter of all the money Ciscomani raised throughout his campaign. Comparatively, approximately 7% of Ciscomani’s 2025 donations came from small donors.  Democratic groups also funneled money to back Mendoza, sending her campaign $2.3 million during the first quarter of 2026, among the highest of Democratic candidates at the time.  In 2024, Trump narrowly won the district that pre-election polling showed Mendoza with a lead of up to three percentage points.  YOU MAKE OUR WORK POSSIBLE.

While the AP Top 25 poll has become a running joke, at least fans can comfort themselves with the knowledge that it has little importance when it matters. Then the College Football Playoff selection committee released their poll this week and, well, to say it was indefensibly bad is a charitable overstatement. It's atrocious. It's humiliating. It's disgraceful. And it requires an entire overhaul of the selection committee process. WE NEED TO ABOLISH THE CFP SELECTION COMMITTEE AFTER YET ANOTHER EMBARRASSMENT Don't worry though, because starting in 2027, the powers that be have voted to make more money and further remove what made college football special with a participation trophy 24-team playoff. This proposal had widespread support among many coaches who will now have greater job security, as well as some conference commissioners who have never actually watched or followed college football. Case in point? Big Ten conference commissioner Tony Petitti. COLLEGE FOOTBALL MOVES CLOSER TO 24-GAME PLAYOFF AND THE DESTRUCTION OF THE BEST REGULAR SEASON IN SPORTS Just this week, he defended the enlarged format with "logic" that is so disconnected from actual objective reality and history that it beggars belief. In an interview with College Sports Radio on Sirius XM, Petitti explained his "thinking" on the 24-team playoff coming next season and how it will impact the importance of games across the sport, week in and week out. "More games are going to matter," he said, inexplicably. "The way this format works is it’s got all different kinds of incentives, right? You’re going to fight like crazy to be inside the top 24, and then you want to get a home game, so you’re going to fight like crazy to be inside 16, and then you want to be inside eight, so you get a home game and a bye. CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGE "So you’re always playing for something. There’s a lot at stake across all of this, and I think this year has just proven that trying to separate 12 teams from everybody else is just going to be incredibly difficult in the way college football is structured right now, and how tough it is to win the road. How the talent has kind of been more dispersed over many more programs, and then last thing is we just need to have give fans games that matter … I don’t think there’s any controversy in that at all." It's worth raising the question, do the people who run college football actually follow the sport? Has Petitti ever watched college football? Part of what makes it special and unique, as opposed to the NFL's regular season slog, is that the games actually matter. There are stakes, because the margin for error is so small. Expanding the playoff removes those stakes, particularly for the superconference teams and especially the SEC. This season, thanks to the selection committee's incompetence, we're already heading towards a three-loss SEC team, if not multiple three-loss teams, reaching the tournament. In a 24-team format, we'll have four-loss teams, if not five-loss SEC teams, reaching the top-24. Results are going to matter less than ever. In a roundabout way, this might actually help lead to more games between marquee opponents, specifically because the outcome doesn't matter. But claiming that fans will feel the same level of intensity, stakes, excitement and energy over fighting to be in the top-8 so they can get a bye? That's insanity. To be fair to Petitti, he did identify that home playoff games would be a big draw for fans. SIGN UP FOR THE DAILY OUTKICK NEWSLETTER "So I think look, and then when you get to the playoff, you know fans are going to show up," Petitti said. "These on-campus games are one of the best parts about it. Going the 16 on-campus games is going to be absolutely great. You know, when fan bases get a home game, especially if that’s unexpected when the season started, you’re going to see incredible reactions across college football." The issue? They'll be a big draw because the regular season is now so meaningless. We've already seen big programs struggle with attendance this year, outside marquee opponents. Just imagine how little interest there'll be in USC-Maryland or Miami-Stanford when the results don't mean anything. What makes all this even more frustrating is that everyone knows the actual motivation behind the playoff expansion: money. More playoff games means more high-value television properties to sell. The 24-team format ensures that programs from the Big Ten and SEC with large, passionate fanbases will have reasons to watch games, even when they're 6–4. It's rewarding mediocrity in search of more financial rewards. Which is what college football has become in recent years.

Two Pentagon officials confirmed to Fox News Digital that Hegseth signed an Oct. 29 memo authorizing up to 60 marked patrol cars, Humvees, military tactical vehicles, D.C. National Guard boats and up to 20 light towers and generators. Roughly 3,000 National Guard troops are deployed in the nation's capital as part of President Donald Trump's crime crackdown.

"The October 29, 2026, guidance authorizes the use of up to 60 marked patrol cars, military tactical vehicles, up to 20 light towers and generators and D.C. National Guard maritime boat assets in support of federal and local law enforcement operations." Politico first reported the authorization, which follows Hegseth's decision last year to allow National Guard troops to carry service-issued weapons when required by their mission.

"I am very hopeful and optimistic that we now have the partners we need at the state and congressional level to push back and demand that this unnecessary, harmful and unlawful military presence be removed from the district," she said during the hearing. Pinto called on newly elected Democratic governors in Georgia, Iowa, Nevada, Ohio and Texas to withdraw the combined 628 troops she said their states have deployed to Washington. Pinto also urged congressional Democrats to increase oversight of federal law enforcement operations in January, including requirements for identifying badges and body cameras.

Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., in one of the most closely watched races of the 2026 election cycle. Cait Conley, a military veteran who served on the White House National Security Council, will likely be coming to Congress next year after beating the two-term incumbent for the job, The Associated Press projected late Thursday. Multiple forecasts suggested the seat would be a likely pickup for Democrats.  THUNE WEIGHS NIGHTMARE SCENARIO FOR GOP AS DEMOCRATS THREATEN TO FLIP HOUSE Both parties poured enormous resources into the race for New York’s 17th Congressional District in the months before Election Day. It was widely seen as key to both parties’ quests to win the House majority. The district, which sits just north of New York City, was won by Vice President Kamala Harris in 2024. TENSION ERUPTS DURING HOUSE MIDTERM DEBATE AS LAWLER FACT-CHECKS NEW YORK DEMOCRAT OPPONENT ON IMMIGRATION Lawler spent much of the race walking a political tightrope between supporting President Donald Trump and positioning himself as an independent voice. And the race itself was marked by bitter divisions on issues like immigration enforcement and taxes. DHS BOSS REVEALS OVAL OFFICE PLAN TO 'WITHHOLD FUNDING' FROM SANCTUARY CITIES AFTER AGGRESSIVE NEW YORK BUST Among Lawler’s backers were the parents of Sheridan Gorman, a college student from his district who was killed in Chicago while she was out with friends. Gorman’s accused killer is an illegal immigrant who was previously arrested for shoplifting, but was released without a federal immigration detainer because of Chicago’s sanctuary city laws. Lawler and Gorman's parents have pointed to her killing as proof that Democrat-backed sanctuary laws — which are active in New York as well — are deadly for Americans. He argued that Conley would do nothing to mitigate the effects of illegal immigration. ARMY COMBAT VETERAN CHALLENGING MIKE LAWLER CALLS HEGSETH NATIONAL SECURITY 'HAZARD,' BACKS IMPEACHMENT Conley, for her part, condemned Gorman’s killing and has said she is against illegal immigration, but she has not spoken out against sanctuary laws specifically. Conley served as counterterrorism director on the White House National Security Council from 2021 to 2023 and spent the remainder of former President Joe Biden’s term as a senior advisor on election security at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. Fox News Power Rankings rated the district as "lean Democrat," while the Cook Political Report ranked it a toss-up. Andhra Pradesh, Telangana https://meenews.co/home
