On the day a sitting president landed in Lubbock, Texas, for the first time in 34 years, people waited for hours in lines stretching for blocks in this reliably red city. But the crowd wasn't waiting for President Trump. They were waiting for Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico. nbcnews.com/politics/2026-el…

This is such an insult to the Doral community. In the midst of aggressive ICE raids that have frightened the community, separated families, and hurt businesses, they do this.
While residents live in fear and plead for help, Doral mayor and police chief host gala at Trump hotel. 🔗 miaminewtimes.com/news/doral…

Losing an election is not grounds for asylum. Yet the Trump Administration is giving Flávio Bolsonaro safe haven in the United States. In Brazil, he is under investigation for alleged corruption, money laundering and currency evasion, and was ordered to surrender his passports. The Trump Administration owes Congress answers on its role helping Bolsonaro flee Brazil in contravention of Brazilian law. apnews.com/article/brazil-fl…

The Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate in Florida says that one of her campaign's IG pages was suddenly taken down tonight during an event. If this isn't election interference, I don't know what is.
Hey @Meta 👋We are currently hosting a get-out-the-vote rally in Osceola County, home to a large Puerto Rican community, and our #LatinosConAngie @instagram page was suddenly taken down while we were actively posting content from the event. This page is a critical communication tool for reaching Latino voters and mobilizing our community. With just seven days until Election Day, every minute matters. We are calling on Meta to immediately restore the page and provide an explanation for its removal. Voters deserve access to critical election information, especially in these final days. @andymstone

Alex Pretti’s father, Michael, is calling on the Department of Justice to share evidence and hold the federal agents involved in his son’s fatal shooting in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 accountable. Speaking at a news conference on Tuesday for the first time, Michael said the family has received no communication from the federal government about the investigation in the 275 days since his son’s death. "What we have been treated to is cruelty ... Share the evidence now, so prosecutors can follow the facts and hold these men accountable," he said. cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/a…

Proof of what we have said for over a year. Most Florida cities, municipalities, and definitely universities, are not required to sign police-ICE collaboration agreements. City of Miami and Doral are examples of this. They can also exit these agreements. miamiherald.com/news/local/i…

Deporting people in our communities, having ICE agents shoot and kill people in broad daylight, but ok to give visas to a political fugitive for a money-laundering grift worth about £680m ($905m) involving betting companies. The two-tier immigration system at work.
WASHINGTON (AP) — State Department says it will give US visas to defeated Brazilian presidential candidate Flávio Bolsonaro and his family.

The Trump administration is buying a stake in a private oil firm, and investors in the company could receive enormous wealth from the arrangement. The role of the Venezuelan government and the potential benefits to its people are largely absent from the text of the deal. propublica.org/article/trump…

In August, President Trump announced he had signed the “biggest oil deal in world history.” ProPublica reviewed the deal and found it gives a small group of people largely handpicked by the Trump administration long-term control of the enterprise. propublica.org/article/trump…

Trump-Putin scandal in Alaska. "Joel Riddle, chief executive of Polar LNG until he resigned in September, said he had been misled...The true source of at least some of Polar LNG’s money was Novatek, a Russian energy giant under partial U.S. sanctions." nytimes.com/2026/10/23/us/po…
