The Biden campaign is “freaking out” about an anti-Biden protest vote within Michigan’s Arab and Muslim communities.
With former President Donald Trump topping polls there, the prospect of losing the support of Michigan’s Arabs and Muslims — a key voting block in the Wolverine State — has the Biden campaign on edge. “They are freaking out about the uncommitted vote,” a Democrat close to Biden toldPOLITICO.

Biden’s support for Israel throughout most of its current conflict with Hamas has alienated the Arab and Muslim communities in Michigan, spawning at least two organized campaigns against the Democratic incumbent: the “Abandon Biden” campaign and the “Listen to Michigan” campaign, which is encouraging Michiganders to vote “uncommitted” in today’s primary.
Increasing frustration with Biden within the Arab and Muslim communities has gone hand in hand with the Biden regime’s decreasing support for Israel. Despite Biden’s soft anti-Israel posturing, however, Michigan’s Arabs and Muslims do not appear to be convinced.
An elected official from Michigan who acted as an intermediary between the Biden regime and Arab and Muslim community leaders says the Biden campaign’s efforts to get out the Arab and Muslim vote are still falling flat. “The Biden campaign wants me to tell you that any vote not for Biden is a vote for Donald Trump,” the official said, but “they’re like, ‘Donald Trump never killed us, Joe Biden killed our families.'”

The National Pulse officially joined the Pentagon’s press corps on Wednesday, following an effort by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to open access to the department to news outlets beyond Washington, D.C.’s corporate media establishment.
“Thank you for opening this up from previously only being accessible to the (often foreign-funded) corporate media,” The National Pulse’s Editor-in-Chief, Raheem Kassam, wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter) addressed to Hegesh. The National Pulse’s political editor, Will Upon, will serve as the lead Pentagon correspondent, with Kassm providing coverage as well.

Twenty-six journalists across 18 outlets were among the former Pentagon press corps who chose to sign the DOW media access policy,” Assistant to the Secretary of War for Public Affairs Sean Parnell said in a statement.
“New media outlets and independent journalists have created the formula to circumvent the lies of the mainstream media and get real news directly to the American people.

In late September, the Pentagon undertook a major shake-up of its press corps aimed at cracking down on leaks of classified information and the malicious publication of national security secrets. This included issuing a renewed Pentagon media policy designed to prevent media presence in sensitive national security areas and limit access to Pentagon officials without approval from the Department of War.
Notably, the number of former Pentagon press corps members who have signed on to the media policy has risen to 26, representing 18 total media outlets. Just over 60 journalists are being accredited for the first time.
The leak of a preliminary, low-confidence Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) assessment of the U.S. strikes against Iran’s nuclear facilities via CNN’s Natasha Bertand likely gave urgency to the policy change. Media outlets used documents to prematurely declare the bombings a failure.

💬KEY QUOTE: “For nearly a decade, the AFT has fought for the rights of student loan borrowers to be freed from the shackles of unjust debt – and today, a huge part of that affordability fight was vindicated.” – Randi Weingarten, AFT President
🎯IMPACT: Borrowers eligible for relief are being notified, with options to accept forgiveness or opt out, according to the Department of Education.
IN FULL
The Trump administration has agreed to cancel billions of dollars in federal student loan debt for as many as 2.5 million borrowers, following a federal court settlement in the case American Federation of Teachers (AFT) v. U.S. Department of Education. The settlement, filed on October 17, reinstates loan forgiveness provisions tied to income-driven repayment (IDR) programs, including Income-Contingent Repayment (ICR), Pay As You Earn (PAYE), and Income-Based Repayment (IBR). These plans cap monthly payments based on income and household size, and forgive remaining balances after 20 to 25 years of qualifying payments.
The agreement comes after the AFT sued the Trump administration in March 2025, claiming it had unlawfully reversed Joe Biden-era loan forgiveness initiatives. According to the lawsuit, the Department of Education, under President Trump, removed IDR enrollment applications from federal websites and directed servicers to stop processing new enrollments and forgiveness applications. The AFT argued that this violated federal law by denying borrowers access to debt relief guaranteed by Congress.
“For nearly a decade, the AFT has fought for the rights of student loan borrowers to be freed from the shackles of unjust debt—and today, a huge part of that affordability fight was vindicated,” said AFT President Randi Weingarten in a statement. “Our agreement means that borrowers stuck in limbo can either get immediate relief or finally see a light at the end of the tunnel. And, crucially, they won’t ever get taxed on that relief. The AFT will hold the federal government to its word, and we won’t stop fighting until college is affordable and taking out a student loan doesn’t trap millions of Americans in a ruinous and exploitative debt cycle.”
The Department of Education began notifying eligible borrowers in October, sending emails that offer the option to accept forgiveness or opt out. Borrowers who receive forgiveness by the end of 2025 will not face federal income taxes on the discharged debt, under provisions maintained from previous legislation.
This settlement comes amid broader changes to the Department of Education under Trump. In March 2025, the president signed an executive order directing the department’s dismantling, aiming to return educational authority to states and local governments.
Earlier that year, the department eliminated over $600 million in funding for teacher training programs which promoted “divisive ideologies,” including diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. As part of this shift, the department’s workforce has also been significantly reduced.

On Tuesday, a federal operation led by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in New York City’s Chinatown led to the arrest of nine illegal immigrants from Senegal, Mali, and Guinea, who were allegedly involved in selling counterfeit goods. Additionally, four protesters were detained for reportedly interfering with law enforcement by blocking vehicles and throwing objects.
DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin called the raid “targeted” and “intelligence-driven,” aimed at addressing criminal activity tied to counterfeit goods. “During this law enforcement operation, rioters who were shouting obscenities, became violent and obstructed law enforcement duties, including blocking vehicles and assaulting law enforcement,” McLaughlin noted. “Already, one rioter has been arrested for assault on a federal officer.”
Murad Awawdeh, vice president of advocacy at the New York Immigration Coalition, stated during a news conference that between 15 and 40 vendors were arrested, along with two local residents protesting the operation. City officials, including a spokesman for Mayor Eric Adams, stressed their adherence to local, anti-borders “sanctuary” policies, noting that New York City does not assist federal authorities with civil deportation actions.
Zohran Mamdani, the Democrats’ socialist mayoral candidate—himself a Ugandan immigrant—condemned the raid as “aggressive and reckless” in a post on X. “Once again, the Trump administration chooses authoritarian theatrics that create fear, not safety. It must stop,” he declared.
Notably, Mamdani is on record as favoring defunding the police and abolishing prisons and ICE.

🎯IMPACT: The incident has drawn scrutiny and criticism, impacting Mr. Platner’s campaign.
IN FULL
Graham Platner, a Democrat Senate candidate in Maine, running against incumbent Senator Susan Collins (R), has apologized for a Nazi Totenkopf (death’s head) tattoo on his chest. Platner claims that he was intoxicated when he got the tattoo and was unaware of its extremist implications.
On the Democrat-aligned podcast Pod Save America, Platner discussed the tattoo, which features a skull and crossbones, claiming it was randomly chosen while he was stationed in Croatia with the Marines. He insisted it is a common military symbol and stated, “I am not a secret Nazi.”
The Totenkopf was an official emblem of the Waffen SS in Nazi Germany, and is particularly associated with the SS-Totenkopfverbände, which administered the Nazi concentration camps.
Platner has also faced scrutiny for past Reddit posts that minimized sexual assault in the military and disparaged police and rural white Americans. He claimed he is remorseful for these comments, linking them to a challenging time in his life when he was dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder.
Despite the controversy, far-left Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) continues to support Platner, calling him an “excellent candidate.”
Platner says he intends to have the tattoo removed and noted that he never tried to hide it, even during his military enlistment. He emphasized personal growth, stating that people can evolve and that everyone has made mistakes online.

The federal government’s budget deficit significantly shrank over the second quarter of the fiscal year, according to data released by the U.S. Treasury Department. Fueled by increased government revenues, including historic levels of money coming into the Treasury Department from President Donald J. Trump’s tariff policies, the second quarter deficit reading was the lowest in over half a decade.
“President Trump is taking control of unwieldy government spending to get the U.S. fiscal house in order. In response, financial markets have cheered the President’s accomplishments, with benchmark Treasury yields making new intra-year lows,” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Wednesday, noting: “The budget deficit began to shrink dramatically beginning in the second quarter of this year when there was no overlap with the Biden administration.

The overall budget deficit for the 2025 fiscal year was $41 billion below last year’s total, though the federal government still added $1.77 trillion to the national debt, which remains a serious economic and political concern. However, the Treasury Department points to other government data showing a considerable improvement in federal outlays, which are largely outpaced by revenue, suggesting the U.S. fiscal situation will likely continue improving. In the second quarter, federal outlays rose by just 0.2 percent compared to the previous year, while in the third quarter, government spending fell by 2.5 percent.
Last month, the federal government reported a budget surplus of $198 billion, a nearly $118 billion increase from the $80 billion surplus widely touted by the former Biden government for September 2024. The Treasury Department contends that if tariff revenues and current fiscal restraint measures are maintained, the federal government’s deficit-to-GDP ratio will fall below four percent, a number largely considered acceptable for an annual fiscal loss.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Protesters, the Irish police (Gardai), and a 26-year-old migrant accused of the assault.
📍WHEN & WHERE: The night of October 21 at the Citywest Hotel in Saggart, Dublin, Ireland.
💬KEY QUOTE: “This was obviously not a peaceful protest. The actions this evening can only be described as thuggery.” – Police Commissioner Justin Kelly.
🎯IMPACT: Six arrests were made, a police vehicle was set on fire, and tensions over Ireland’s migrant policies have escalated.
IN FULL
Thousands of protesters gathered outside the Citywest Hotel in southwest Dublin, Ireland, on Tuesday night, following reports that a ten-year-old girl had been sexually assaulted by an asylum seeker housed at the facility. The demonstration quickly turned violent, with members of the crowd throwing bricks, bottles, and fireworks at police. An Irish police vehicle was set on fire during the unrest.
Around 2,000 people joined the protest, which was met by a deployment of 300 Gardaí (Irish police) in riot gear. A water cannon was used in an effort to disperse the crowd, as some protesters wielded pitchforks and garden tools while chanting “GET THEM OUT!” in reference to the migrants staying at the hotel. Police Commissioner Justin Kelly described the event as “thuggery,” saying, “This was obviously not a peaceful protest. The actions this evening can only be described as thuggery.”
The Citywest Hotel, Ireland’s largest, was recently purchased by the government for approximately $162 million to serve as a permanent accommodation centre for migrants. The decision has faced strong opposition from locals, with ongoing protests and a petition gathering thousands of signatures.

The alleged assault occurred between Sunday night and early Monday morning. The suspect, a 26-year-old migrant whose asylum application had been rejected last year, with a deportation order issued earlier in 2025. However, he was not actually removed from the country.
The man required an Arabic interpreter during court proceedings. The young girl, who was in state care, had reportedly wandered away from her guardians during an outing in central Dublin before encountering the suspect.
Irish Justice Minister Jim O’Callaghan condemned the protest. “The weaponising of a crime by people who wish to sow dissent in our society is not unexpected,” he said.
The unrest follows a pattern of similar incidents across Ireland over the past two years. In November 2023, violent riots erupted in Dublin after a migrant was accused of stabbing three children and a woman outside a school. Smaller towns and villages have also seen pushback over large-scale migrant placements, with local residents citing strained public services and lack of consultation.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: U.S. District Court Judge Jeffrey Cummings and ICE agents.
📍WHEN & WHERE: Recently in Cook County, Illinois.
💬KEY QUOTE: “The fair administration of justice requires that courts remain open and accessible, and that litigants and witnesses may appear without fear of civil arrest.” – Judge Jeffrey Cummings
🎯IMPACT: ICE agents are restricted from making “collateral arrests” at courthouses, impacting their operations.
IN FULL
U.S. District Court Judge Jeffrey Cummings, appointed to the bench by former President Joe Biden, has issued an order barring U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents from arresting illegal immigrants inside the Cook County courthouse in downtown Chicago, Illinois, unless they can produce a warrant. The legally and ethically dubious directive follows a number of arrests executed by ICE both inside and near several Chicago-area courthouses.
“The fair administration of justice requires that courts remain open and accessible, and that litigants and witnesses may appear without fear of civil arrest,” Judge Cummings wrote, continuing: “One thing seems clear: ICE rousted American citizens from their apartments during the middle of the night and detained them—in zip ties no less—for far longer than the ‘brief’ period authorized by the operative regulation.”
Cummings’s order aims explicitly to prevent ICE agents from making so-called “collateral arrests,” where immigration enforcement agents executing an arrest warrant also detain other illegal immigrants present in or near the courthouse. The Democrat-appointed judge threatened that he would back the directive by ordering the arrest of any ICE agent who violates it.
In response, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) defended the actions of ICE agents, arguing that courthouses should not be exempt from law enforcement activities. “We aren’t some medieval kingdom; there are no legal sanctuaries where you can hide and avoid the consequences for breaking the law,” DHS stated. “Nothing in the Constitution prohibits arresting a lawbreaker where you find them.”

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Trump, Cognizant, Tata Consultancy Services, foreign workers, and American workers.
📍WHEN & WHERE: The shift in hiring practices comes after President Trump issued an Executive Order in September, instituting the new application fee.
💬KEY QUOTE: “On H-1B, we have significantly localized our workforce in the U.S. We believe our business model will be able to adapt quickly to any changes in immigration policy.” — Sudeep Kunnumal, Tata’s chief human resources officer
🎯IMPACT: The change in hiring behavior by Cognizant and Tata suggests the Trump administration’s H-1B application fee is having its desired effect, pushing companies in the U.S. away from being overly reliant on foreign labor and towards hiring Americans.
IN FULL
Several top U.S. employers are halting sponsorships for H-1B visas for non-technical positions after President Donald J. Trump issued an Executive Order in September imposing a $100,000 fee on all new visa applications. Notably, two major alleged H-1B visa mills, Cognizant and Tata Consultancy Services, are among the firms moving away from an over-reliance on cheap foreign labor.
“On H-1B, we have significantly localized our workforce in the U.S.,” said Tata’s chief human resources officer, Sudeep Kunnumal, on a recent earnings call. He added: “We believe our business model will be able to adapt quickly to any changes in immigration policy.”
The Trump administration’s new application fee likely had a direct impact on the company’s decision to move away from reliance on cheaper foreign labor, as data shows the multinational IT firm is one of the largest sponsors of H-1B visas.
Meanwhile, Cognizant—another IT consultancy firm founded in India along with Tata—has begun stating on new job postings that it will “only consider applicants for this position who are legally authorized to work in the United States without the need of employer sponsorship.”
The Trump White House has defended the unusually high fee compared to past administrations as necessary to encourage companies to focus on training and expanding the American labor force and its skill base.
Last week, The National Pulse reported that the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, a major globalist lobbying entity representing 300,000 corporate interests, had filed a federal lawsuit calling in the $100,000 fee. “Many members of the U.S. Chamber are bracing for the need to scale back or entirely walk away from the H-1B program, to the detriment of their investors, customers, and their own existing employees,” the Chamber complained in its filing.

🎯IMPACT: The migrant’s return raises further questions about the efficacy of the “one out, one in” deal, which was already under fire for covering only a small number of migrants while illegal crossings have remained in the thousands.
IN FULL
A boat migrant deported to France under a new “one out, one in” deal between the British and French governments has reportedly returned to Britain on another small boat.
Britain’s Home Office—roughly equivalent to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security—states that 42 migrants have been returned to France as part of this arrangement, which was introduced earlier this year by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron. Despite the fact that it entails Britain taking a migrant from France for every boat migrant that is returned, it is supposed to deter boat migrant crossings by raising the possibility that such journeys will be wasted. However, thousands of boat migrants have crossed since it was introduced, indicating that it is not working.
Now, one migrant from the initial group of deportees has already returned, claiming that France—a First-World European Union (EU) and NATO member state—is unsafe. He told the left-wing Guardian newspaper, “If I had felt that France was safe for me, I would never have returned to the UK.”
This comes as Prime Minister Starmer, of the leftist Labour Party, is hosting a summit on illegal immigration with other European leaders. A government spokesman for his government attempted to defend the “one out, one in” deal, stating: “We’ve been clear about the arrangement with France, that this is the beginning of a landmark scheme which is not, in itself, a silver bullet.”

Carlitos Ricardo Parias, a Mexican national living in the U.S. illegally and known on TikTok as “Richard LA,” was shot and arrested in Los Angeles, California, following a confrontation with federal agents. The incident occurred when law enforcement attempted to arrest Parias, who allegedly rammed his car into federal vehicles during the standoff. Agents opened fire, striking Parias in the elbow. A deputy U.S. marshal was also wounded by a ricocheting bullet.
“Ultimately, an agent opened fire, wounding Parias and a deputy US marshal, who was hit with a ricochet bullet,” Acting U.S. Attorney Bill Essay said of the incident.
Parias gained popularity on TikTok for his videos documenting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations. Despite his unlawful status and the serious allegations against him, Parias received support from Los Angeles City Councilman Curren Price, who described him as “a pillar of our community” and a “fearless citizen journalist.”
Parias is not the first illegal immigrant influencer to face legal trouble. Earlier this year, Venezuelan influencer Leonel Moreno was deported after using TikTok to encourage illegals to squat in unoccupied homes. His videos, which often showed him flashing cash and mocking U.S. laws, drew national attention.. Immigration authorities confirmed his deportation in March.
Another deportation involved Leidy Tatiana Mafla-Martinez, a Colombian national known for organizing anti-ICE protests and posting videos of enforcement actions. Mafla-Martinez was removed from the U.S. in October after what federal officials described as multiple violations of immigration law.
