Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto's jet-setting diplomacy has become one of the defining features of his presidency, drawing both praise and scrutiny as Indonesia pursues radical spending cuts at home.
Is it a strategic investment in Indonesia's future, or an expensive diplomatic gamble whose benefits remain difficult to quantify?

Pretty notable that in Michigan, both El-Sayed AND Benson are underperforming the generic ballot HARD now. Tho both still favored to win.
In Maine, even w/out the third party candidate, Pingree would lead by 14%. Sheโs safe and overperforming by a LOT.
Ayotte is safe as usual.

The breakup of the Centrist Reform Alliance is now complete.
โข 27 Komeito-faction members return to Komeito
โข 18 CDP-faction members form the Democratic Reform Party
โข 1 CDP-faction member, Atsushi Oshima, does not join the DRP and remains an independent
โข 1 CDP-faction member, So Watanabe, remains in the CRA so the party can continue receiving government subsidies
These 47 members form the "Centrists" caucus in the House of Representatives.
Separately, former CDP leader Kenta Izumi does not join the DRP and will also not join the caucus, leaving him as an independent.
Komeito member Keiichi Ishii will also caucus as an independent because, as vice speaker, House rules require him to remain politically neutral.

'La Bola Negra' is following an awards strategy previously used by four high-profile best picture Oscar winners.
THR can exclusively report that the entire principal cast of @netflix's Spanish-language epic will be promoted for recognition in their respective supporting categories. The rationale is that, on the basis of screen time and centrality to the plot, no individual is a clear lead over the others.
This approach has previously been employed by numerous other high-profile awards contenders, including four that went on to win the best picture Oscar: 2005โs 'Crash,' 2015โs 'Spotlight,' 2016โs 'Moonlight' and 2019โs 'Parasite.'

Durant is in Oklahomaโs 2nd District, which Trump won by 56 points in 2024.
Josh Brecheen is obviously safe, but I donโt know if swing district (or even Trump +15-20 districts) Republican candidates donโt want Trump coming around, or if he just wants to be in one of the few places where itโs blood red enough that he is still beloved.
Probably both.
