EXCLUSIVE: @FBIDirectorKash says the FBI has stepped up its effort against violent crime, but Justice Department data rebuts that claim. The FBI is filing fewer criminal cases than it did during the Biden Administration. But Patel is counting state and local arrests to juice his stats. With @CarolLeonnig

This is a rough September inflation report.
-Biggest monthly jump since May
-Higher than expected inflation AND core inflation
-Core Inflation for the past 3 months is running at well over a 3% annualized pace...that's problematic
-Inflation (3.7%) totally wiping out wage gains (3%)
Yes, high gas and diesel prices are the major driver, but also big jumps in airfares, used car prices, recreation, medical and apparel. The energy shock is spreading.

Woke up to a Trump post declaring "Massive Oil, Gas, and Mineral Exploration is getting ready to begin" in "our" Greenland...
...and Greenland, which remains under Danish sovereignty, telling CNN that's not correct.

In 1987 Trump visited Moscow. Since then, "He has changed his mind about abortion and crypto, he has supported different political parties... but his dislike of America’s democratic allies and his preference for Russia have remained remarkably consistent."

Trump: “Remember…your gas prices are lower than when Biden was president.”
They were higher on just 76 of Biden’s 1,460 full days as president. In other words, they were lower during 95% of Biden’s term. And they’re up 39% since Trump’s inauguration: cnn.com/2026/10/13/politics/…

Per my review:
-Trump has pardoned 9 of the last 11 GOP congressmen to be convicted of federal crimes.
-His DOJ has indicted, tried to indict, or taken investigative steps against 13 Democrats currently serving in Congress.

1. Trump’s new White House press secretary, Katie Zacharia, says she is a lawyer.
She has claimed to be a lawyer repeatedly on national TV, on podcasts, and on social media.
But there is no evidence that Zacharia has ever been licensed to practice law.

True story: during the first Trump administration, we found it odd that the president requested men “straight out of central casting” to appear with him at DHS events.
