What we learned is that former petrochemical lobbyists now inside the EPA are meeting with former clients and then moving to force career staff at the EPA to rollback public health protections. We found the actual documents detailing these moves. Smoking guns. (Redlines striking protections)

During this investigation, we traveled to locations around the United States where President Trump has moved to ease pollution rules, including to Port Neches, Tx. where there is a middle school a few blocks from the chemical plant considered by the EPA the largest cancer threat nationwide.

HOLY SHIT. In a sworn statement yesterday, an ICE agent told a federal judge that an ICE flight to Equatorial Guinea had been cancelled and so couldn't be used to bring Ahmed Soliman back to the United States. The plane just landed in Equatorial Guinea. prospect.org/2026/10/23/t...

JUST IN: The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office said on Monday. Her office will not charge the white officer who shot the child.

Vivek Ramaswamy registered as an attorney in New York and as a voter in Ohio at different addresses, which would mean he either violated New York State Bar registration laws or Ohio voter registration laws.

Zelenskyy says Starlink restrictions REMAIN in Ukraine, crippling interceptor drones and military operations. He says Ukraine has evidence the restrictions are DELIBERATE after testing Starlink systems in the EU, where they worked perfectly at speeds that cause connections to fail inside Ukraine.

The United States is actively helping Putin murder civilians in Ukraine. Trump is doing everything he can to force Ukraine to surrender to his friend and ally Putin so they can be subjugated by the Russians again.

On X, users have circulated nonconsenual AI videos created by Grok of a woman they think is Jane Doe. They continue to spread her name. People have praised X for staying relevant for AI and tech conversation. But it also is the main vector for a doxing. That is X. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/16/n...

nytimes.comWhen a Social Media Mob Came for Cornell’s Jane DoeAfter a former student named seven men in a lawsuit saying they had sexually assaulted her, a movement gained steam online to reveal her identity.

Cherki probably should've been on the wing in place of Semenyo and could've cross crossed in and out. He's not a good two way midfielder (yet), and of course Enrique already knew that from facing Cherki in Ligue 1.

These three probably should have started. Khusanov is much more effective as a CB. I understand keeping the pressure off Bouaddi, but against the best team there is on the break, stopping that should be paramount.

Back 4 is concerning to me. Need Gvardiol to have his best performance of the season and Khusanov needs to pick his spots and not be too rash.
