One overlooked highpoint of Tuesday’s midterm elections, was the victory of Anthony Constantino in New York’s 21st Congressional District. Constantino will now succeed Rep. Elise Stefanik to represent the largest Congressional District in the state of New York.

From day one of his campaign, Constantino has cemented himself as a champion of President Trump’s Make America Great Again agenda. The Sticker Mule CEO’s first major public foray into the political arena was erecting a massive “Vote for Trump” sign atop his tallest factory building in upstate New York.

Constantino was endorsed by President Trump, who wrote:

“It is my Great Honor to endorse America First Patriot, Anthony Constantino, who is running to represent the wonderful people of New York’s 21st Congressional District. Anthony has been such a Great Supporter that he actually put up a somewhat “controversial” sign, against strong opposition, in my honor. The sign is still there!”

On Monday, Vice President JD Vance hosted a rally in his district, urging Republicans to vote for him, stating that he will “make a great Congressman for the 21st District.”

Democrats fought hard to stop his victory, dumping millions of dollars to push his hand-picked radical Democrat opponent.

Constantino entirely self-funded his campaign, making his slogan “Nobody’s Man But Yours” all the more fitting.

Reports or claims that President Donald Trump had approved a nuclear strike on Iran or had somehow given Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu his permission to do so are categorically false.

This narrative is planted by people seeking to destabilize Trump going into a crucial midterm election.

In fact, in a shocking announcement, President Donald Trump has officially cut all U.S. foreign aid to Israel. U.S. President Donald Trump says he made a deal with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Washington would no longer be providing funding to Israel after the end of this year.

Now, Laura Loomer, who is ISRAEL FIRST – except for when she’s defending actual Nazis in Ukraine (which she used to oppose) – says it’s good. She essentially says now Israel can launch a nuclear strike of its own, potentially leading to WWIII.

I support Israel, but I’m America First, and I think that under this extraordinary agreement, President Trump is forcing Israel to fight what is essentially its war.

The agreement would also guarantee that the United States continues to sell its defense weaponry to Israel.

“Israel is now unleashed to do whatever the hell they want,” said ISRAEL FIRST Laura Loomer, when she’s not shilling for actual Nazis in Ukraine in her newfound support for Zelenskyy after previously correctly identifying him as a leech.

Such a unilateral nuclear strike on Iran could spark WWIII, and I think Trump would rather avoid it without, of course, ever ruling it out in public because he is a master negotiator.

President Donald Trump has changed the America-Israel relationship forever. This move changes not just the trajectory of the United States’ involvement in the Middle East, but also strengthens the President’s positioning on Iran.

Trump acted in the tradition of President Richard Nixon, who, in 1973, during the Yom Kippur War, saved Israel from utter annihilation by airlifting $36 million worth of lethal aid to the Israelis with their backs against the Red Sea.

Nixon ordered it over the objections of Dr. Henry Kissinger, the National Security Council, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Another $100 million in nonlethal aid, like medicines, bandages, and some foods, came by ship. Golda Meir, the Israeli Prime Minister, said, “Nixon saved Israel.” It may have been Nixon’s greatest hour.

The President is not dealing with Iran for Israel, or on behalf of anybody except for the people of the United States.

Accusations that the President is ‘serving the will of Israel’ have always been ludicrous. Entirely fabricated. False. I’ve known President Donald Trump for over 40 years.

I can assure you this. Nobody tells President Donald Trump what to do. Not me, not his staff, not his lawyers, and certainly not any foreign leader.

President Donald Trump is his own man. I worked with President Ronald Reagan, and I worked with President Richard Nixon. I’ve been involved in American politics for over 50 years. No elected official I’ve ever seen is more true to his word, his nature, and his promises than President Donald Trump.

His move to cut aid to Israel is a step in the right direction, and certainly lets the air out of the far left’s shouting that Trump is somehow led to make decisions because of Israel.

It couldn’t be further from the truth.

This move will save American taxpayers over $4 billion per year and allow Israel to exercise its independence from the United States.

A win-win for all involved.

Rep. Haley Stevens, the Michigan Democrat who lost her party’s Senate primary, delivered a late shock to Democrats by endorsing Republican Mike Rogers on camera just two days before Election Day.

In a video posted Sunday from her campaign account, Stevens stated she remains “a very proud Democrat” who loves Michigan but could not support the party’s nominee. “Hey Michigan, as you may have seen, our Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate, Abdul [El-Sayed] said that I was no longer welcome in his campaign and that I should stay away and he’s right. And that’s why I’m endorsing Mike Rogers for the United States Senate today,” she said, as reported by Fox News.

The timing was no accident. Stevens had been scheduled to join El-Sayed and Rep. Jim Clyburn at a Detroit church service meant to project Democratic unity in the final days of the campaign. After a bitter public fight over an outside ad she called antisemitic, El-Sayed’s campaign pulled the invitation and told her to stay away from its remaining events. Instead, she walked into Perfecting Church on Sunday alongside Republican Mike Rogers.

Rogers welcomed the endorsement outside the church. “I’m honored to have Haley Stevens support today. I’m honored to have earned that vote,” he told reporters. “This is more a statement about standing together against hate and the future of this state and this country than it is anything else,” Fox reported. The National Republican Senatorial Committee blasted out the same Stevens quote within hours. 

El-Sayed, who has never held elected office, narrowly defeated Stevens in Michigan’s Aug. 4 Democratic primary. Stevens has pressed him to condemn antisemitism among some of his allies, including streamer Hasan Piker. After her endorsement, Piker and other left-wing voices attacked her, with former DNC Vice Chair David Hogg branding her a “traitor” and Mehdi Hasan calling her a “complete traitor,” while the RNC argued that Democrats abandoned by El-Sayed “have a home with Mike,” Fox News Digital reported.

President Donald J. Trump responded on Truth Social, calling the move “BIG” and praising Stevens for her bravery. “She showed great and almost unprecedented loyalty to the Great People of Michigan with what she did. It’s a thing called bravery, and few people have it like just displayed by Congresswoman Haley Stevens!” he wrote.

The race was already razor close. A Fox News Poll of 1,028 likely voters taken Sept. 24 to 28 put El-Sayed ahead of Rogers 50% to 49%, within the margin of error of plus or minus 3 points. The same survey found that 11% of Stevens’ primary voters were already planning to vote for Rogers, well before Sunday’s endorsement.

Michigan is one of a handful of Senate races that could decide control of the chamber. Two days from Election Day, the Democrat who ran against El-Sayed, and who the RNC said “knows him better than anyone,” has told the state she is voting the other way.

Voters will decide on November 3.

Meet Decoy Dan. He’s the second Dan Sullivan on Tuesday’s Alaska ballot, the retired teacher who filed days before the deadline last spring. Now, days before Election Day, federal agents are knocking on doors and contacting his donors, asking whether they knew which Sullivan they were funding.

The visits come as the Justice Department vows to keep fighting an Obama-appointed judge who on Sunday tossed its bid to protect the integrity of one of the most closely watched Senate races in the country.

FBI agents have contacted contributors to retired Petersburg teacher Daniel J. Sullivan Jr. in Petersburg and Sitka, Alaska, and in Groton, Massachusetts.

Those visits come after Alaska U.S. Attorney Michael Heyman told reporters the criminal probe has been underway for months, and that a New York Times report indicating Democrat Mary Peltola’s campaign appeared involved in recruiting the second Sullivan triggered a “significant surge of law enforcement assets to Alaska.” Daniel J. Sullivan remains on Tuesday’s ranked-choice ballot alongside Republican incumbent Sen. Dan S. Sullivan, Democrat Peltola, and another Republican, and he has not withdrawn.

President Donald Trump, asked about the scheme, called it “voter fraud at the highest level.” Sen. Sullivan has labeled the episode the “scandal of the highest order” and accused Peltola of still lying about what her campaign knew. Peltola, for her part, has denied any role, calling, calling the allegations nonsense and smears intended to distract. “I know I can beat Dan Sullivan. I do not need any help winning this race,” she said.

On the civil side, the Justice Department pushed Friday for a court order isolating ballots that ranked Daniel J. Sullivan, and for a pathway to halt certification if the alleged name confusion flipped the outcome. U.S. District Judge Sharon Gleason, nominated by Barack Obama, dismissed that suit Sunday, ruling the government lacked standing and offered no workable remedy that preserved the secret ballot. She also blocked the department from amending and refiling in her court.

The DOJ is not walking away. In a statement carried on Fox News and posted by DOJ Rapid Response, the department said the dismissal rested on procedural grounds and did not dispute its core argument that “Daniel J. Sullivan (a/k/a Decoy Dan) entered the race as a frivolous candidate to confuse voters.” “DOJ plans to file a notice of appeal. Alaskan voters deserve a fair election, not to be misled in an attempt to rig outcomes,” the department said.

Alaska’s ranked-choice system makes the name collision especially dangerous. Voters rank candidates, and if no one clears 50% on first preferences, the lowest finisher is eliminated and those ballots are redistributed. A handful of confused first-choice marks for the wrong Sullivan could matter in a race that may decide control of the United States Senate for the final two years of Trump’s term. 

Sen. Dan Sullivan has said publicly he expects the second Sullivan to cost him votes.

The pieces fit together. A second Dan Sullivan landed on the ballot, with reports that Democratic operatives helped put him there, and a months-long federal probe is now surging with FBI donor interviews stretching from Southeast Alaska to Massachusetts. The Justice Department moved to wall off the contested ballots, but an Obama-appointed judge shut the case down on standing, and the DOJ now plans to take the fight to the Ninth Circuit.

Alaskans cast their ranked ballots on Tuesday, November 3, and many have already voted. For those who marked Sullivan near the top of their list, one question remains: did they vote for the right candidate?

A liberal journalist goes to Cuba expecting to document Trump’s damage. The Cubans have other ideas.

Worth’s questions about American policy produced another revealing exchange. During nine days of travel, he had not met a single person who blamed Donald Trump or the United States for their situation. He sometimes reminded people about the blockade and asked whether conditions had worsened. Retired engineer Guillermo Almeida told him he saw no change since January. Venezuelan oil, he explained, had not been reaching ordinary Cubans anyway. Another man offered a concise explanation: “It seems to us that the real embargo is inside of Cuba.” Worth’s questions suggest he was trying to establish the consequences of Trump’s blockade. The Cubans’ answers kept taking him back to the consequences of their own government.

Worth acknowledged that the pandemic devastated tourism and reduced remittances from relatives abroad. Those developments made an already depleted state weaker. They do not explain six decades of political control, economic mismanagement, and repression. The Atlantic Council’s examination of Cuba’s state-run economy describes a failure years in the making.

Worth also visited a Catholic nursing home in Havana. Its residents included former government employees and military officers abandoned by the state and their families. One former soldier had fought in Angola and carried a tattoo of Che Guevara, acquired when he was eighteen. He had once believed in the revolution. Now he wanted its leaders gone. Even men who had served the revolutionary project were spending their final years in an institution run by the Church.

Worth’s final stop was Santa Ifigenia Cemetery in Santiago, where Fidel Castro’s ashes are kept. The grounds were immaculate. Soldiers in pressed uniforms performed a precise changing of the guard to patriotic music. Then a breeze carried the acrid smell of burning garbage across the cemetery.

The revolutionary shrine was pristine. The country it left behind was not.

There is an irony in Worth’s reporting. He went to an island celebrated by the American Left for its socialist achievements. He encountered a priest feeding the hungry, elderly women begging for survival, a nurse struggling without supplies, and citizens who had lost faith in their government. His reporting placed socialism’s celebrated promises beside the lives of the people who were supposed to benefit.

For Cuban-Americans, the contrast is deeply personal. Here in the United States, we take pride in our Cuban roots. We celebrate our heritage, culture, food, music, and the history our families carried with them. We did not leave Cuba because we were ashamed of being Cuban. We left because a political system made it impossible to live with freedom and dignity.

Worth encountered people on the island who had not lost their Cuban identity. They had lost hope in the country where they were born. Here, Cuban is a badge of honor. There, it has become a burden of birth.

Worth may not have set out to write an indictment of socialism. But his reporting brought him face to face with the distance between the socialist ideal celebrated abroad and the reality endured at home. Whether he has reconciled that contradiction is his question to answer. The journalist’s journey is the story. His tribulation is the confrontation between what he thought he knew and what he discovered.
