News organizations including The New York Times, The Associated Press and the conservative Newsmax television network said Monday they will not sign a Defense Department document about its new press rules, making it likely the Trump administration will evict their reporters from the Pentagon. Those outlets say the policy threatens to punish them for routine news gathering protected by the First Amendment. The Washington Post, The Atlantic and Reuters on Monday also publicly joined the group that says it will not be signing. AP confirmed Monday afternoon that it would not sign.

A dedicated prayer room for Muslims has reportedly been opened inside the 500-year-old Vatican Apostolic Library in Rome after a plea for the separate, carpeted space was made by visiting Islamic scholars. The Catholic Herald reports Fr Giacomo Cardinali, Vice Prefect, said in an interview with the Italian newspaper La Repubblica that Muslim academics had requested an area in which to pray, and the library had agreed. “Some Muslim scholars have asked us for a room with a carpet for praying and we have given it to them,” he said.
In the interview, Cardinali referred to the library’s modern collections: about 80,000 manuscripts, 50,000 archival items, nearly
General Motors said Tuesday that it plans to take a $1.6 billion charge in the third quarter as it revamps its electric vehicle strategy as the end of the federal government's EV tax credit is expected to slow demand. GM's move comes as automakers are reworking their plans for producing EVs after consumer demand softened over the last two years. The Trump administration's move to end the $7,500 federal tax credit for EVs, which helped support the emerging industry, prompted executives to warn about a drop-off in consumer demand. GM said in a filing that it expects "the adoption rate of EVs to slow" following the recent policy shifts,
Norfolk, Virginia — A one-page mortgage document signed by New York state Attorney General Letitia James is at the center of the federal criminal charges for which she now faces 60 years in federal prison. In the “second home rider” for her mortgage, which was obtained by The Post, James attested that the property would be a second home occupied primarily by her. It allowed her to secure a better mortgage rate from Old Virginia Mortgage/Annie Mac — netting her nearly $19,000 in mortgage savings, according to federal prosecutors. In reality, James’ serial criminal grand-niece, Nakia Thompson, moved in soon after she
Virginia attorney general candidate Jay Jones (D.) should be stripped of his license to practice law, a government watchdog group charged in a complaint Tuesday with the Virginia State Bar (VSB), the third such petition filed since the release of text messages showing Jones fantasizing about killing a GOP lawmaker and wishing for the death of that lawmaker’s child.
The National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC) said Jones violated the Virginia Rules of Professional Conduct, which require attorneys to demonstrate respect for public officials in their professional and personal affairs, when he sent text messages in 2022
In case there were any lingering doubts that President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda is helping America and hurting its enemies, this Department of Homeland Security news release should dispel them.
On Tuesday, DHS put out a blistering release that chronicled a sickening plot from south of the border that was targeting Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection agents — all the way in Chicago. Here’s the blistering headline: “Bounties Originating From Mexico Offered to Shoot ICE and CBP Officers in Chicago.” According to DHS, the group has acquired credible intelligence linking Mexican criminals to a tiered bounty system targeting ICE and CBP agents. Worse yet, DHS claims that

Congressional investigators collected a stunning 30 million lines of phone data mapping contacts between conservatives and the Trump White House in the name of investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol breach, a massive dragnet that raises civil liberty concerns about the lack of limits on the ability of lawmakers to snoop on Americans' private phone calls. The mountainous collection of phone records were revealed to the FBI led by Chris Wray in late 2023 by former Rep. Adam Kinzinger, a GOP member on the Democrat-run House Jan. 6 select committee. The cache was offered to the bureau on the eve of the 2024 presidential election as evidence without requiring a warrant

Cheryl Hines went head-to-head with The View's Sunny Hostin over her husband's capacity to serve as Health Secretary.
The Curb Your Enthusiasm actress, 60, was a guest on Tuesday's episode of the ABC talk show and was grilled about her other half Robert F. Kennedy Jr's lack of a medical background.
Defending her RFK Jr's knowledge, Cheryl said: 'He has dedicated his career to suing big corporations because of toxins that have been affecting people's health… 'He was part of the team that sued Monsanto because of Roundup, a pesticide that was causing cancer. GMOs right?
'He sued Dupont, he sued Exxon, and he sued these companies for health reasons
President Trump paid tribute to Charlie Kirk with a Rose Garden celebration on what would have been his 32nd birthday — as his widow Erika revealed he likely would have run for president one day.
Trump, 79, called the assassinated conservative activist a “martyr” worthy to be honored with some of the most famous names in history.
“Charlie Kirk was a martyr for truth and for freedom,” the president said. “And from Socrates to Saint Peter, from Abraham Lincoln to Martin Luther King, those who change history the most — and he really did — have always risked their lives for causes they were put on Earth to defend.”

Department To Probe CAIR for 'Financial

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R., N.Y.) and Sen. Tom Cotton (R., Ark.) are urging the Trump administration to investigate the Council on American-Islamic Relations’s links to Hamas, according to a letter obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
In a letter sent Tuesday to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, the Republicans argue that CAIR’s "pattern of historic ties" to Hamas, combined with the rhetorical encouragement CAIR leaders have offered for Hamas, may constitute "material support for terrorism." They cite CAIR’s designation as an unindicted co-conspirator in a 2009 federal court case against the Holy Land Foundation, a Hamas front group, and pro-Hamas rhetoric from CAIR

While the world's attention was focused on the release of the Jewish hostages taken by Islamic Hamas monsters, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a bill into law that would make it easy for strangers to kidnap children from his state's schools—without parental permission, naturally. While one story gloried in hostages freed from totalitarian barbarians, another set of totalitarians loosed a plot to take more. Think that's overwrought? Hold my beer.
Newsom signed AB 495 into law on Sunday night and pretended that the law, proffered by a Democrat to hide kids illegally in the country from Immigration authorities, kept parental rights intact and preserved parents’ relationships with their own children.

During his first bid to become Virginia attorney general, Jay Jones promoted legislative efforts to divest from the police, pull cops from schools, end qualified immunity for law enforcement, and abolish cash bail. As he centered his unsuccessful 2021 Democratic primary run on police reform and race, he repeatedly invoked George Floyd and Jacob Blake and said that the two men could’ve been him.
On the campaign stump, Jones even said on Twitter that the two men could’ve been him.
Floyd died in police custody in May 2020, setting off a wave of oft-violent Black Lives Matter protests and riots around the country. Blake was shot by police while holding a knife

Former President Barack Obama stated that President Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops to quell crime in Democrat-run cities is “inherently corrupting,” arguing that he would have received a different reaction from conservative media if he had sent the military into Texas during his tenure. Obama spoke with left-wing comedian Mark Maron for the final episode of his long-running podcast, published Monday, in which he shared several of his grievances about how Trump has been leading the country.

Tightens Grip On Gaza As Truce Flashes Violence 34 replies
Hamas fighters have dramatically reasserted control in Gaza, defying Israeli demands for disarmament just a day after U.S. President Donald Trump was in the region signing the ceasefire agreement.
On Tuesday, the militant group solidified its return by carrying out public executions of men accused of collaborating with Israeli forces. A video circulated Monday, whose authenticity was confirmed by a Hamas source, showed seven men dragged into a crowd, forced to their knees, and shot from behind in Gaza City.
The move underscores the “daunting hurdles” facing efforts to move Trump’s ceasefire plan toward a longer-term resolution.
NEW YORK — Leaders of Young Republican groups throughout the country worried what would happen if their Telegram chat ever got leaked, but they kept typing anyway.
They referred to Black people as monkeys and “the watermelon people” and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies and driving them to suicide and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.
William Hendrix, the Kansas Young Republicans’ vice chair, used the words “n--ga” and “n--guh,” variations of a racial slur, , more than a dozen times in the chat. Bobby Walker, the vice chair of the New York State Young Republicans at the time,
A State Department contractor stole thousands of pages of “TOP SECRET” classified documents and met with Beijing officials.
Ashley Tellis, an expert on India and South Asian affairs, removed the top secret documents from secure locations and met with Chinese officials.
The classified documents were located in Tellis’s Virginia home during a raid.
“On Sept. 25, he allegedly printed U.S. Air Force documents concerning military aircraft capabilities. Federal prosecutors allege that he met with Chinese government officials multiple times over the past several years,” Fox News reported.

The Democratic Socialists of America — the organization backing New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani — denounced the “conditional” cease-fire deal between Israel and Hamas and called for continued resistance against the Jewish state in a statement released Monday.
The DSA declaration titled “Until Palestinian Liberation” came days after Israel and Hamas agreed to halt fighting and begin exchanging hostages and prisoners under a US- and Arab-brokered deal.
The far-left group said the truce “will not end Israel’s assault on the Palestinian people or the theft and occupation of Palestinian lands,” describing it as a “conditional cease-fire” that “does not wash the hands of the ruling class that …
Moses, smell the roses: Did you see the joyous, adoring throngs of Israelis and Arabs, all cheering and praising the American president? Millions of people chanting his name!
Y’know, for a guy with Donald Trump’s ego, people worshiping him as a god in the Holy Land must’ve been pretty trippy.
But for a guy with Barack Obama’s ego, had he been in Trump’s shoes, he would’ve believed it.
That’s always been one of the fundamental differences between the two most historically significant presidents of this century: Sure, Donald Trump has an ego, but he’s also self-aware. His pride and self-confidence are 100% authentic, but he’s also a showman: Part of it is schtick.
Sen. Cory Booker is racing down the aisle! During his appearance on the I've Had It podcast released on Tuesday, Oct. 14, the newly engaged Democratic New Jersey lawmaker, 56, revealed that he's fast-tracking his "I dos." "I've had it with being single. 100%. Being single is not fun, especially when you're trying to date," Booker told hosts Jennifer Welch and Angie "Pumps" Sullivan. "And as a United States Senator, it's been a difficult, challenging time. So I've had it with that, and I'm very psyched that I'm getting married." Booker announced his engagement to Alexis Lewis on Tuesday, Sept.
Ever since President Donald Trump brokered the historic ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, the left has predictably tried to rewrite history. Instead of acknowledging Trump’s success, they’ve either praised the deal without giving him credit or tried desperately to hand the credit to someone else—namely, former President Joe Biden.
Biden’s former Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, previously claimed the Trump-brokered ceasefire “builds on a post-conflict framework developed under the Biden administration.” The spin is almost comical: (Snip) On Monday, Biden issued a statement on the release of hostages in Gaza, framing it as a crowning achievement of his administration.

The Democrats' reaction to President Donald Trump's historic peace deal in Gaza has been interesting. Some on the left had the grace to give him the credit he deserved. Then, you had folks like former President Barack Obama, who, while welcoming the deal, couldn't bring himself to even mention Trump's name.[snip]Then there were folks like Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) who seemed to be implying that she had something to do with the achievement in her remarks, when, of course, she had nothing to do with it.[snip] "The president told me he did this on Indigenous Peoples Day in honor of you," Vance jokingly replied
The Israeli military said Wednesday that one of the bodies handed over by Hamas the previous day as part of the ceasefire deal is not that of one of the hostages who was held in Gaza, adding to tensions over a fragile ceasefire in the two-year war.
Four bodies were handed over by Hamas on Tuesday to ease pressure on the fragile ceasefire, following the first four on Monday — when the last 20 living hostages were released. In all, Israel was awaiting the return of the bodies of 28 deceased hostages.
The military said that “following the completion of examinations at the National Institute of Forensic Medicine,
