EXCERPT:

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Israel’s Arab political parties of election fraud Wednesday, amid record-level Arab voter turnout and election wins in the ongoing Knesset polls.

Netanyahu alleged that the Arab parties “support terrorism and the elimination of the Jewish state” and had “stolen” the elections “through serious criminal offenses of bribery, threats, violence, forgeries, and the use of prohibited software to mobilize voters,” according to a translation of his statement posted on X.

The two main Arab parties are Ra’am and the Joint List, according to the Times of Israel.

Speaking for his Likud party, Netanyahu accused the Arab parties of trying to rig the elections through “thousands of envelopes with cash and Ra’am slips, threats and violence against polling station members, multiple voting behind the curtain, voting with double identities, discrepancies between the number of envelopes and the number of voters, the use of prohibited mobilization software, and more.”

His party demanded an investigation of the Arab parties by the police, the Shin Bet — Israel’s domestic security and counterintelligence agency—and the Central Elections Committee, which oversees the general elections for the Knesset.

Appeals Court Protects 20,000 Non-Citizen California Ballots

A Federal Appeals court ruled 2-1 to deny the Department of Justice’s request to remove 20,000 non-citizen ballots from California’s voter rolls. The court passed on a technicality, claiming it had no power to act until a lower court had ruled. They also claimed, “The United States’s claimed emergency, at least in part, is a self-constructed one.”

EXCERPT:

A federal appeals court has rejected the Justice Department’s emergency bid to set aside thousands of mail-in ballots in California. In a 2-1 ruling Monday, the judges said the appeals court lacked the authority to intervene before a lower court had ruled.

The lower district court has a hearing scheduled for Tuesday afternoon.

The DOJ wanted a faster decision, arguing that California should set aside ballots associated with roughly 20,000 registered voters it suspects are not U.S. citizens. But the two judges in the majority said the government was partly responsible for its own urgency.

“The United States’s claimed emergency, at least in part, is a self-constructed one,” the judges wrote, pointing to the department’s delay in filing the lawsuit and seeking emergency relief.

California officials have disputed the government’s list, saying it includes people who appear to be U.S. citizens.

Brexit to Blame for UK Unrest, Burnham Claims

pgnewser October 29, 2026 0

The UK’s radical progressive Prime Minister, Andy Burnham, continues to push an anti-Brexit narrative intended to set up a redo election. He hopes to bring the UK back into the EU, and he aims to use the riots and unrest in Britian to stigmatize Brexit. He is now directly accusing Brexit of being the underlying cause of the unrest in the country, not the unfettered immigration of foreigners that hate Britian, nor the criminalization of dissent against it.

NAIROBI, Kenya — Two attacks in Ethiopia’s Oromia region killed at least 60 Orthodox Christians, the country’s Orthodox Church said, urging authorities to protect civilians and bring those responsible to justice.

The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church’s Holy Synod said Monday that 14 people were killed in Merti district on Oct. 20 and a further 46 in Shirka district on Oct. 24. Both districts are in Oromia’s Arsi Zone.

More than 20 people were seriously wounded and 20 homes were burned down, the church said, describing the killings as “brutal and merciless massacres.”

Oromia regional government spokesperson Hailu Adugna blamed the Oromo Liberation Army, or OLA, for the attacks. He accused the rebels and their allies of trying to provoke ethnic and religious conflict to divert attention from military losses in northern Ethiopia. He presented no evidence supporting the accusations in the statement.

“If the state of Washington knowingly or unknowingly allows a non-citizen to vote, they are canceling out or stealing the vote of the United States citizen.”

The Justice Department announced Monday that federal investigators have identified 405 non-citizens who voted illegally in Washington state, with many casting ballots in multiple elections, and warned that potentially thousands more could be voting illegally as the state fights federal demands for its complete voter registration database.

Acting US Attorney Neil Floyd said investigators identified more than 1,500 ballots cast by the individuals. Federal prosecutors have asked Washington election officials to set aside ballots submitted by those on the list until their eligibility can be confirmed.

“We have identified over 400 non-citizens who had voted in Washington, and many of them have voted multiple times. That means we have identified over 1500 ballots illegally cast,” Floyd said.

SANAA, Yemen: A Houthi official said Tuesday (Oct 27) that the Egyptian parliament’s decision to authorise military support for Saudi Arabia to defend against the Iran-backed group’s attacks was a declaration of war.

The comment was part of a long statement reacting to a Monday visit to Tehran by the Saudi defence minister, alongside Pakistan’s army chief and Türkiye’s intelligence chief, in a bid to de-escalate tensions in the Middle East war.

“It is truly remarkable that while these people go to discuss what they call ‘peace in the region’, Egypt and its parliament declare support for the so-called defence of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and in doing so, declare war against the Republic of Yemen,” said Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, a member of the Houthis’ political bureau, in a Telegram post.

Saudi Defence Minister Khalid bin Salman, Pakistan’s army chief General Asim Munir and Türkiye’s intelligence chief Ibrahim Kalin attended the talks with Mohsen Rezaei, head of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council.

They also met Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian.

Iran, Pakistan and Türkiye recently signed a NATO-style defence pact in Mecca that says an attack on one country is to be considered an attack on all three.

EXCERPT:

A federal judge on Monday barred the Trump administration from removing trees from East Potomac Golf Links in Washington, D.C., in a colorful ruling that follows a weekslong controversy over President Trump’s plans to overhaul the publicly owned course.

“The Court earlier stated, ‘I am not the Lorax. I do not speak for the trees,'” U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes wrote. “The Court still does not speak for the trees. It speaks only for the rule of law.”

In a 70-page preliminary injunction ruling, Reyes prohibited the government from “removing or damaging” any trees on the golf course while a lawsuit challenging the renovation plan works its way through the court system. The judge also required 10 days’ notice before the government makes “any irreparable modification” to the course.

The judge had previously blocked tree removal through Monday.

In a Truth Social post, Mr. Trump called the ruling “unconstitutional” and said his administration would seek appeal. He added that the government would move forward with closing the course on Nov. 15.

“To have to give advanced notices to a judge who has no expertise in Golf, Architecture, Landscaping, Construction, or anything else having to do with building such a World Class Project, is not fair, appropriate, or Constitutional,” the president wrote, arguing the project is “totally ‘as of right.'”

Mr. Trump has sought to overhaul the golf course — which sits beside the Potomac River — for months, pitching a “World Class Championship Golf Course” fit to host high-profile professional tournaments instead of the current “dysfunctional” course. The D.C. Preservation League sued over the planned changes to the course, arguing the government violated the National Environmental Policy Act by failing to analyze the project’s impacts.

The fast-moving Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo (D.R.C.) has reached 10,000 confirmed cases, government data showed on Tuesday, as health authorities race to slow the spread of the disease in multiple African countries.

It is the fastest-growing Ebola outbreak in history and nearly half of the 10,060 people confirmed to have the virus have died, according to data from D.R.C.’s Ministry of Health.

That also makes it the deadliest outbreak of the disease in the country’s history.

The outbreak declared in May is caused by the rare Bundibugyo virus, for which there is no approved vaccine or treatment.

Response teams are battling armed conflict, poor roads and violence from residents fuelled by mistrust and misinformation. Those obstacles compound the challenge of persuading people to report symptoms and accept care in communities that have endured years of violence and repeated epidemics.

PARIS — Business is up tenfold at a weapons store near Place de l’Opéra in Paris: Shopkeepers from all over the city have been stocking up on pepper spray and tear gas.

In the nine days since riots erupted in cities across France, thousands of merchants have also boarded up their storefronts, radically altering the Paris streetscape. The screech of electric saws and pounding of nails into plywood are now background noise in the French capital.

“They’re afraid their stores will be attacked and looted,” Yves Gollety, owner of the weapons store, explained.

Adding to the dark mood are police helicopters hovering, with searchlights blazing, to enforce a late-night curfew in the Les Halles and République sections of Paris.

And the city has removed many of the huge street-corner bins where Parisians are accustomed to dropping their empty wine and beer bottles. Rioters had been knocking them over to get glass ammunition against police.

Yet daily life has barely changed in much of Paris, where it can seem like normal times amid the chaos. Friends chat in cafés with shattered windows. Customers ignore plywood covering the front doors of shops.

Brazilian Senator Flávio Bolsonaro and his family were en route to Ecuador after leaving Brazil and stopping off in Argentina, the Argentine National Directorate of Migration said on social media. Bolsonaro lost Brazil’s hotly contested presidential election over the weekend.

Bolsonaro, his wife and two daughters arrived in Argentina Tuesday night through the Tancredo Neves International Bridge border crossing, the directorate said, then boarded a private plane for a flight to Guayaquil, Ecuador.

There was no word on whether they would remain in Ecuador.

Earlier, a senior State Department official told CBS News Bolsonaro and his family would receive U.S. visas.

Bolsonaro, an ally of President Trump, and his family will be allowed entry into the U.S., the official said.

Bolsonaro departed Brazil for the U.S. after being defeated by incumbent President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in Sunday’s election, according to multiple Brazilian media reports.

A spokesperson for Bolsonaro did not respond to a request for comment. His campaign manager Rogério Marinho also refused to comment.

Silva said Tuesday it was “shameful” that Bolsonaro had fled Brazil.

The US has warned several Gulf Arab countries to prepare for a short but intense military campaign against Iran after the November 3 US midterm elections, the Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.

According to the WSJ, US President Donald Trump is leaning toward launching major strikes on Iran’s infrastructure and nuclear facilities, although no final decision has been made. The warnings to Gulf allies reportedly indicate that Israel is also preparing to participate in renewed combat operations.

The US is reportedly deploying an additional Patriot air defense missile battery to the region and moving troops away from vulnerable bases in anticipation of Iranian retaliation. Washington is also replenishing munitions and preparing additional aircraft and warships for possible operations.

EXCERPT:

COLUMBUS, OH — Ohio Senate Bill 214 would remove firearm mufflers and suppressors from the state’s classification of dangerous ordnance. Sen. Koehler introduced it in the 136th General Assembly. It amends sections 1533.04, 2923.11 and 2923.17 of the Ohio Revised Code.

The bill passed the Senate 31-1 in March and is now pending before the House Public Safety Committee, as reported by the Ohio House of Representatives. The release comes from State Rep. Monica Robb Blasdel (R-New Waterford). It identifies the sponsor as Sen. Kyle Koehler (R-Springfield). It also backs proposed amendments that would extend the bill’s changes to short-barreled rifles and short-barreled shotguns. NRA-ILA also reported the Senate’s passage of the bill in March.

Here is why this matters. Under current Ohio law, suppressors, short-barreled rifles and short-barreled shotguns are all classified as dangerous ordnance. According to Blasdel’s office, possessing one without federal National Firearms Act registration or another qualifying exemption can result in state felony charges.

The timing is tied to changes at the federal level. Blasdel’s office points to “a landmark federal court ruling limiting federal enforcement,” which I covered previously. It also cites the federal government’s announcement that it will end enforcement of “dangerous ordnance registration under the NFA.” The concern is that Ohio’s own parallel enforcement statute stays on the books. That could leave law-abiding Ohio gun owners exposed to state penalties even as federal enforcement backs off.

Italy has hit record-high employment of over 63 percent and historic low unemployment of 6.3 percent amid a major welfare overhaul led by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. By Q2 2026, the workforce expanded to 24.36 million people.

In January 2024, Italy completely replaced its old guaranteed minimum income with two targeted programs. Averaging €672/month for 690,000 vulnerable households (elderly, disabled, families with kids), as of June 2026, active benefits are tied to mandatory job training, covering over 84,000 individuals, writes La Gaceta, citing data out of Istat.

Of former welfare recipients, 60 percent transitioned to the new benefits, and 26 percent of these households had at least one member find a job in 2024. However, around 850,000 families saw their income drop by an average of €2,600 per year due to stricter welfare criteria.

Especially in historically lagging Southern Italy (Mezzogiorno), the results have been impressive. The region grew 8.5 percent between 2021 and 2024 and creating nearly 500,000 jobs via tourism, construction, and EU funds.

Italy’s employment rate still lags 8 percentage points behind the eurozone average, bogged down by low youth and female workforce participation.

MOSCOW, October 28. /TASS/. In late October, European countries continue to inject small volumes of gas into underground storage facilities (UGS) ahead of the cold season, despite prices hitting a four-year high, according to TASS calculations based on data from Gas Infrastructure Europe (GIE).

Meanwhile, several countries have been net-withdrawing gas from European UGS facilities for the second consecutive week – with withdrawal volumes outstripping injections–signaling the gradual start of the heating season in the region.

To date, Europe has managed to inject only 75.5% of the gas volumes required for the upcoming winter, which amounts to 51 billion cubic meters.

As of October 26, European UGS facilities were 74.93% full, down from 82.9% a year earlier and 14.65 percentage points below the five-year average for this date. This remains the lowest level recorded for this date since monitoring began in 2011. EU storage facilities currently hold approximately 82.1 billion cubic meters of gas, which is 9.4 billion cubic meters less than last year and the lowest volume since 2013. Gazprom previously forecast that European gas inventories might fail to reach even the 75% mark, warning of a challenging autumn-winter season for the region.

Brazilian Senator Flávio Bolsonaro has reportedly fled to the United States after losing to Socialist President Lula da Silva in the country’s presidential election by 4.4 million votes (51.8 percent to 48.2 percent).

“The plane is in flight, and the final destination would be Florida,” Brazilian online newspaper Metropolis reported Tuesday morning. “The information was confirmed by people close to the parliamentarian’s family.”

Flávio Bolsonaro, the son of former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro, initially called for the election to be annulled due to a last-minute two-hour extension of voting hours in a district favorable to Lula. The extension was ordered by Supreme Court Justice Cristiano Zanin just three minutes before the scheduled 5 p.m. close purportedly because of transportation issues.

But the challenge was considered unlikely to succeed because only 35,000 votes were cast during the extended hours, and the margin of defeat was substantial, the Guardian reported. Bolsonaro effectively conceded defeat on Monday,  after President Donald Trump indicated he would not intervene, despite calling the vote “rigged.”

When asked for his thoughts on the election, Trump told reporters the vote “looked terrible” and “like another rigged election.”

“I didn’t take sides,” Trump said. “Elections have to be indisputable, and it looked very bad to me.”
