The average price of a gallon of gas nationwide is now a $1.29 higher than before the start of the Iran war. Despite voters' concerns, President Trump continues to tout how much money big oil companies are making because of it. Our opening tonight:

I'm doing something this week that I don't think CNN has ever done. I'm hosting a 7+ hour livestream EVERY day as we drive through battleground states, meet voters/candidates and just have fun with local unique activities. It's part travel show, part food show, part politics. We're starting with Pennsylvania, Ohio, then Michigan. Send through any ideas of places to go!! Streaming 10a-5p every day, first two hours Monday on YouTube, the rest on the CNN app.

President Donald Trump claimed that Elon Musk had restored Ukraine's access to a military-grade version of his Starlink internet service, called Starshield, but Ukrainian officials have said restrictions remain in place that are complicating Kyiv's war effort. cnn.it/4dWK7Gx

At least 7 people were killed after gunmen opened fire inside a church in Jordan’s Karak. The “unidentified” gunmen are being pursued, the security agency said, adding that the shooting happened during a funeral. A witness told state-run Al-Mamlaka television that one attacker was carrying an AK-47 Kalashnikov rifle, and the shooting continued for several minutes. The incident took place in Hmood, a predominantly Christian town in northern Karak. edition.cnn.com/2026/10/23/m…

Israeli settlements have massively expanded in the occupied West Bank under the current Israeli government – along with a major spike in violent attacks on Palestinians. @JDiamond1 reports on how the government has allowed this and whether elections could prompt any change.

For years, the illegal Israeli outpost of Esh Kodesh served as a launchpad for violence against nearby Palestinian villages. Then in December 2025, the Israeli government legalized it -- one of 104 new settlements Netanyahu's government has approved. What happened next? More violent outposts sprung up, renewing the cycle.
