Ukraine says SpaceX capped Starshield speeds without warning, disrupting missions. Separately, Musk is the biggest known midterm donor at $276M+. No evidence the two are linked. The issue: one man holds both dials.

Elon Musk has given $276M+ to Republican groups since July, the biggest known midterm donor: $158M to the Senate Leadership Fund, $76M to his America PAC. About $366M this cycle. Equal votes. Unequal volume.

Desde marzo, a cientos de colonias de Guadalajara les llega agua oscura y con mal olor. El domingo, unas 10 mil personas marcharon a Casa Jalisco. Respuesta: gas, chorros de agua y 39 detenidos. Para las llaves no hay agua limpia; para los cañones, sobra.

AP: federal agents searched Rep. Ilhan Omar’s home. DOJ says a judge authorized the warrant. No charges announced. Trump has publicly pointed at her for months, and the midterms are 3 weeks out. The warrant has a signature. The pressure has a shadow.

Trump: US won’t attack Iran “at any time prior to the Midterm Elections,” Nov. 3. A day earlier, Axios: the Pentagon told CENTCOM to finish prepping major combat ops. Blockade stays. A pause has a date. Peace needs an agreement.

The Pentagon will livestream the Dec. 3 firing squad execution of Nidal Hasan, the first US military execution since 1961. The UN rights office says a livestream is “tantamount to a public execution.” Justice or content?

Packed house, as long as the camera never zooms out.

If the rallies are truly “maxed out” with “no empty seats,” why does every wide shot show something different, and why does the president attack reporters for the photos instead of releasing his own?

Trump, at a Nebraska rally, on Iran possibly striking US cities: "Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay." The crowd applauded. Both mayors have responded. Easy to gamble with someone else's home.

The arsonists just announced a sprinkler system.

When the same leaders whose war sent oil past $100 a barrel now announce a reserve release to lower prices they helped spike, is that crisis management, or just cleanup on a mess with their names on it?

Trump's approval sits at 33%. His ask to the GOP base: "pretend I'm on the ballot." He's not. He's just betting his name is the only thing that gets Republicans to vote in the midterms. DeSantis, Cruz, Haley, Cotton are all along for the ride either way.
