With over 42 million food stamp recipients facing benefit disruptions and the economic fallout worsening by the day, the president insists that bold action is necessary to end the monthlong impasse that Democrats continue to prolong. Despite Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer's obstruction, most Americans aren't buying the left's attempts to shift blame onto Republicans for this crisis. | Meanwhile, President Trump and First Lady Melania hosted thousands of trick-or-treaters at the White House for Halloween, demonstrating that even amid multiple crises facing the nation, the first family remains committed to honoring American traditions. With renovations underway at the White House and a packed schedule of diplomatic wins, Trump continues to prove he's not just a dealmaker but a president who understands the importance of keeping faith with the American people. | Check out all the latest developments and more below! | | | | | π Trump Adjusts Russia Strategy After Asia Diplomatic Tour President Trump's approach to the Ukraine conflict has shifted noticeably in recent weeks, moving from aggressive rhetoric aimed at pressuring Russian President Vladimir Putin to a more measured diplomatic posture following his meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. The president announced that a rotational U.S. Army brigade stationed in Romania, with forces in Hungary and Bulgaria, would be coming home, though he characterized the pullback as "not very significant, not a big deal." During his meeting with Xi, Trump chose not to press China on purchasing Russian oil despite previously demanding that India curb similar purchases, telling reporters afterward that "we really didn't discuss the oil." The president expressed a more resigned tone about ending the war, suggesting that sometimes adversaries need to fight it out, though he emphasized that both he and Xi would work together on the issue. Trump did take decisive action by sanctioning two major Russian oil companies, Lukoil and Rosneft, which both companies responded to by announcing plans to sell international assets, demonstrating that his sanctions carry real economic consequences for Moscow's war machine. | ⚖ Trump Calls for Investigation Into Former FBI Agent President Trump demanded an immediate investigation into former FBI agent Walter Giardina, calling him a "dirty cop" who should be scrutinized alongside other figures Trump believes engaged in politically motivated investigations against him and his associates. Trump's Truth Social post specifically named Giardina along with former Special Counsel Jack Smith, Lisa Monaco, Andrew Weissmann, Jay Bratt, Norm Eisen, Christopher Wray, Merrick Garland, and Thomas Windom as individuals who should face accountability for what the president characterized as corrupt investigations. Giardina, who was recently fired by FBI Director Kash Patel, has been accused by former White House trade adviser Peter Navarro of orchestrating a series of politically motivated operations spanning from the 2016 Russia collusion probe through the January 6 investigations. Whistleblower reports cited in Senate Judiciary Committee records reportedly accused Giardina of wiping his FBI laptop, potentially destroying government records connected to the Crossfire Hurricane investigation that led to the Mueller special counsel probe. Navarro has also maintained that Giardina personally supervised his 2022 arrest at Reagan National Airport, where the former adviser claims agents failed to read him his Miranda rights or allow him to contact his attorney before being taken into custody. | π° Trump Announces South Korea to Build Nuclear Submarine President Trump revealed that South Korea has been given approval to build a nuclear-powered submarine at the Philadelphia Shipyards, marking a significant win for American manufacturing and the president's commitment to revitalizing the nation's shipbuilding industry. The announcement came during Trump's highly successful Asia trip, where South Korea agreed to pay the United States $350 billion for a reduction in tariffs while also committing to purchase American oil and gas in vast quantities. Trump announced that investments from wealthy South Korean companies and businessmen will exceed $600 billion, demonstrating the tangible economic benefits of his diplomatic efforts. The president emphasized that the military alliance between the United States and South Korea is stronger than ever, which formed the basis for his decision to approve the nuclear-powered submarine project rather than allowing South Korea to continue relying on outdated diesel-powered vessels. Trump's focus on bringing shipbuilding back to America addresses an industry that has been in decline for decades and has fallen significantly behind China, with the president previously announcing the creation of an Office of Shipbuilding to accelerate the sector's recovery. | π Trump and First Lady Host Halloween at White House President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump welcomed thousands of trick-or-treaters to the White House South Lawn for the annual Halloween celebration, demonstrating their commitment to preserving American traditions even amid ongoing national challenges. The president and first lady personally handed out commemorative candies on the South Drive while the United States Air Force Strolling Strings performed traditional Halloween songs and modern tunes for the festive crowd. The event featured autumnal decorations throughout the South Portico, including falling leaves and a variety of jack-o'-lanterns, creating a welcoming atmosphere for families. First Lady Melania's signature "BE BEST" campaign was incorporated through a postcard station facilitated by the U.S. Postal Service, which also provided toy mail trucks for children. The celebration included participation from numerous government agencies and organizations, with the U.S. Department of Agriculture providing a giant pumpkin photo opportunity and miniature pumpkins from American farmers, while the National Confectioners Association supplied sweet treats and the International Fresh Produce Association contributed Washington and New York state apples. |

| | | | | | π Trump Demands GOP End the Government Shutdown π | President Trump issued a forceful call for Senate Republicans to eliminate the filibuster and end the monthlong government shutdown that Democrats continue to weaponize against the American people. In a late-night Truth Social post following his return from a successful Asia trip, Trump praised Senate Majority Leader John Thune and House Speaker Mike Johnson for their leadership while blasting Democrats as "crazed lunatics" suffering from "Trump Derangement Syndrome" who want to redirect trillions of dollars from American healthcare to illegal immigrants. | The president pointed out that Democrats fought desperately to end the filibuster during the Biden administration but were blocked by then-Senators Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema, both of whom later left the Democratic Party. Now Trump is calling on Republicans to use that same "nuclear option" to push through their agenda and reopen the government immediately, arguing that Democrats would do exactly the same thing on their first day back in power. | Republicans and Democrats remain locked in a bitter stalemate as the shutdown enters its fourth week, with Democrats demanding enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies while refusing to negotiate until their demands are met. Speaker Johnson made it clear that Democrats alone have the power to end this crisis, emphasizing that Republicans need just five Democrats in the Senate to reach the 60-vote threshold required to reopen the government. Vice President JD Vance echoed this message during a White House roundtable with aviation industry leaders, calling on "five reasonable Democrats" to join the three moderate Democrats and 52 Republicans who have already voted to end the shutdown and restore critical services to Americans. | The shutdown has created catastrophic consequences across multiple sectors, with air traffic controllers missing their first full paycheck and federal food assistance programs running dry for the first time in American history. New York Governor Kathy Hochul declared a state of emergency as roughly three million New Yorkers, including 800,000 seniors and one million children, face losing SNAP benefits worth approximately $650 million monthly. The Trump administration explained that reallocating funds to cover November's SNAP payments would pull money away from other critical programs like school meals and infant formula, leaving officials with no legal pathway to prevent the disruption. | Senate Majority Leader Thune delivered an impassioned floor speech accusing Democrats of ignoring the real-world impact of their obstruction after voting down Republican proposals to reopen the government 13 times. House Majority Whip Tom Emmer accused Schumer of "playing games with people's actual lives" while thousands of federal employees go without pay and millions of Americans prepare to lose essential benefits. Vance described the situation as a "hostage" scenario in which Democrats are refusing to negotiate policy differences unless Republicans capitulate to their demands at gunpoint, insisting that the proper course is to reopen the government first and then discuss healthcare and other policy matters through normal legislative processes. | Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned that air traffic controllers cannot survive missing two paychecks, predicting massive problems for American air travel if Democrats don't end their obstruction immediately. The president made it abundantly clear that if Republicans abolished the filibuster, they would not only end this shutdown but also secure the best judges, the best U.S. attorneys, and advance every element of the America First agenda that voters overwhelmingly supported in the last election. | | Wall Street's Morning Edge. | Investing isn't about chasing headlines — it's about clarity.

The expanded facial recognition program lifts previous age exemptions, authorizing scans for travelers younger than 14 and older than 79, with the new rules taking effect December 26th. The policy represents a significant expansion of the Trump administration's border surveillance and immigration enforcement agenda, aimed at tightening identity verification procedures and combating document fraud. | ⚖ Two major phone carriers took sharply different approaches when former Special Counsel Jack Smith's team subpoenaed phone records tied to Republican lawmakers in 2023 as part of the Arctic Frost FBI probe that led to election charges against President Trump. Verizon complied with the subpoenas, which included phone numbers for one House member and ten senators including Senators Rick Scott and Ted Cruz, while AT&T challenged the legal basis for seeking congressional records and ultimately refused to produce any information. The subpoenas sought toll records for a four-day period surrounding the January 6th Capitol riot. | π¨ The Illinois man who went viral for flipping a Turning Point USA table on campus has been arrested for threatening to kill President Trump after ignoring FBI warnings about his violent social media posts. Derek Lopez, who was fired from his teaching assistant job at Illinois State University following the October incident, posted an Instagram video showing an unknown male pointing a gun at an image of Trump with red crosshairs on his forehead. FBI Director Kash Patel emphasized that the threats have no place in American society and warned that the Bureau will find and bring to justice anyone who considers making threats of violence against public officials or any American. | π¬ CNN anchor Jake Tapper predicted that Generation Z will be "a lot more conservative" than previous generations, attributing the shift to young people's rejection of progressive values that were forced on them in school and the perceived failures of movements like Black Lives Matter and MeToo. Tapper based his assessment partly on his own children's skepticism toward liberal political ideas and noted that Trump performed better with young voters than previous Republican candidates. Polling data from the Center for Information & Research on Civic Learning and Engagement confirmed a rightward trend among younger Americans. | π¬ Former Bravo star Jennifer Welch made bizarre and inflammatory claims about Vice President JD Vance during an appearance on the "I've Had It" podcast, calling Vance a "failed drag queen." Welch, who has become a liberal media darling despite repeatedly making offensive statements about Trump supporters, also promoted a conspiracy theory claiming that MAGA movement figures are secretly gay and overcompensate with Christian nationalist policies. The far-left podcaster has made numerous appearances on CNN and MSNBC while hosting top Democratic leaders, despite having previously laughed when a protester celebrated activist Charlie Kirk's assassination. | | π₯Trending Politics Video Of The Dayπ₯ - Mike Johnson & John Thune Expose Democrat Shutdown Lies |  | Mike Johnson & John Thune Expose Democrat Shutdown Lies |
