"It's just pathetic." @SteveHiltonx fires back after California gubernatorial opponent Xavier Becerra urged @FoxNews to "take him back." Hilton blasted the former HHS secretary's record on unaccompanied migrant children and pointed to California's cost-of-living and homelessness crises under Democratic rule: "He's not even campaigning." "After 16 years of Democrat one-party rule, California has the highest poverty rate in the country, the highest unemployment rate, the highest cost of living, and a homelessness scandal that shames the whole country, not just California. He's not even campaigning. He's totally taking this for granted. He is lazy and arrogant. He has not put forward a single solution to any of the problems facing California. He is totally pathetic."

"It is a more Republican state than people think." @SteveHiltonx says his California gubernatorial bid hinges on: • Replicating Trump’s ~6.1M California votes from 2024 • Flipping disillusioned L.A. Democrats fed up with street chaos, crime, and the mayoral race • Winning big in Los Angeles County

“Right now our current governor, our secretary of state, and our attorney general - they have been allowing this to happen since 2011... Time for a change.” Minnesota voters are demanding immediate change, arguing unaddressed fraud has gone on for over fifteen years without accountability.

"I think Minnesota is not respectful to the taxpayers.” Voters in Minnesota say government fraud stands as the single biggest issue facing the state this election cycle.

POLITICAL STALEMATE IN ISRAEL: With over 70% of the vote tallied, neither Benjamin Netanyahu’s right-wing bloc nor Gadi Eisenkot’s opposition bloc has secured the 61-seat majority required to govern. Whoever receives the mandate from President Isaac Herzog will face an uphill climb to build a coalition—leaving a unity government, negotiations with Arab parties, or new elections on the table. @TreyYingst

NEW: The U.S. and Israel are reportedly preparing a major wave of strikes against Iran following the midterm elections. An additional U.S. Patriot missile defense battery is deploying to Israel as regional forces brace for retaliation.

"The people who know him best are saying he is too extreme for the United States Senate." In a tight Michigan Senate race, @MikeRogersForMI points to prominent Democrats crossing the aisle: "The finance chairman for Elissa Slotkin... came out and said, 'not only can I not vote for Abdul, I'm voting for Mike Rogers.'" "We cannot afford Abdul El-Sayed's policies, and we can't risk his ideology."

BREAKING: "THE CEASEFIRE HAS COMMENCED," First Lady Melania Trump announces, confirming the Russia-Ukraine humanitarian truce took effect at 4:00 AM Moscow time—"accelerated two days ahead of schedule" to protect civilians and deliver critical aid. Trump added that the zone has already "expanded beyond Oleshky, within the Kherson Region, to provide safe passage for the humanitarian convoys."

SIDE ORDER OF SHADE: After trashing Obama’s presidential library as "Darth Vader's tomb," @SecScottBessent responds to Obama’s "Cheesecake Factory" swipe with menu recommendations: "I recommend the Cheeseburger Spring Rolls."

“The thing that people say doesn't happen, happens all the time.” Over 130 noncitizens have been charged with voting in American elections in just 50 days, according to Assistant Attorney General for Fraud Enforcement Colin McDonald.

“Certain states are doing absolutely nothing to help us identify illegals who are voting.” According to Colin McDonald, officials flagged 20,000 suspect registrations to California and ~400 to Washington state—but say neither is cooperating with investigations ahead of the election: “We're having to get publicly available voting records and manually reconstruct these individuals.”

NEW: Over 130 illegal immigrants charged with voting in U.S. elections in just 50 days. Assistant AG for Fraud: “The thing that people say doesn't happen, happens all the time... The further we look, the more voter fraud we find.”

NEW: Reporting details a multi-pronged federal inquiry zeroing in on Rep. Ilhan Omar—revealing "three pieces of trouble" on the immigration front alone: • Missing DHS records: “If her father was never naturalized, there's literally no theory under which she could be naturalized.” • Congressional paperwork: An altered birth date likely behind the search warrant’s conspiracy charge—allegedly involving staff who “was in on it.” • Family ties: Marriage fraud claims where “the DOJ reportedly has the DNA.” “And that doesn’t even get to the financial investigation.” | @PaulDMauro

EMPIRE STATE PROPOSAL FALLOUT: The daredevil couple who scaled the Empire State Building to get engaged on its lightning rod will appear in an NYC courtroom Tuesday. The Russian nationals—famous for climbing world landmarks—are now facing multiple felony charges, including reckless endangerment and criminal mischief.

ISRAEL DECIDES: The two wildcards that could upend Israel’s election today: The Expat Surge: Tens of thousands of Israelis have flown home to cast ballots—an unpolled demographic widely projected to vote against Netanyahu. Historic Arab Turnout: Arab parties are projected to secure roughly 14 seats, making them indispensable kingmakers for whoever attempts to build a governing coalition.

The White House just floated Nicki Minaj as the next Press Secretary. Aboard Air Force One en route to Donald Trump’s rally in Michigan, White House Communications Director @StevenCheung47 posted a video interviewing Minaj—and teased the idea of her stepping up to the podium. Would you tune in to watch Nicki handle the White House briefing room?

No softball questions here. With Election Day around the corner, Ohio voters press @VivekGRamaswamy on why he deserves the governor’s seat.

"It gets weirder and weirder and weirder and stranger." @VivekGRamaswamy calls out his opponent in the Ohio gubernatorial race for dodging debates and barring cameras from campaign events: "The conservative news giants of CNN and local NBC news invited both of us to a debate... I said, I'm going to do it. I will show up. I owe it to the people of the state. If I can debate on these networks, I can certainly lead the state. She declined both of them." Ramaswamy adds: "Even one thing that's even stranger in this campaign is she actually bans video recording at her own events... This is a woman who's had two different 911 calls on her, by her own daughter."

"You never start a fight. But if you find yourself in one, you finish it." @VivekGRamaswamy defends his controversial campaign ad featuring the estranged mother of his Democratic opponent, Amy Acton, arguing his campaign is responding to months of personal and family attacks: "They've attacked me. They've defamed my mother to media silence. It's unbelievable. And yet at the same time, they'll trot out anything to attack a Republican. We're standing for truth. And so the irony is, they're lying about an ad that was about her lying." Ramaswamy challenges Acton to debate him on the issues: "She is hiding because they want to lie and then deflect accountability. We're not going to let them get away with that, because this election is about helping Ohio families."
