New York police took custody of an unlicensed firearm belonging to anti-Trump activist E. Jean Carroll following a report from The National Pulse.
In January 2024, we reported that Carroll disclosed holding a firearm at her home during her defamation trial against former President Donald Trump. This revelation, according to a police report, led Warwick, New York police to visit Carroll’s residence on February 15 to address the weapon.

During the trial, Carroll informed the federal court in lower Manhattan that she kept the firearm, a “high standard revolver, nine chambers”, along with ammunition at her home, next to her bed. She also admitted to not possessing a firearm license.
Following the on-site discussion, reporting officer John Rader arranged for the firearm’s safekeeping at the police station. The next day, Carroll and a member of her team handed over the gun. Under NY state law, possession of an unregistered firearm can lead to a criminal possession charge with a maximum sentence of four years.
In the same trial, after a contentious debate around Carroll’s gun ownership, the jury ordered Trump to pay Carroll $83.3 million for defamation. Trump was previously found liable for defaming Carroll during his presidency. He has denied the accusations and has filed an appeal against the judgment after securing a $91.6 million bond.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The typhoon formed in the Northwest Pacific Ocean this week, with potential impacts expected in the western U.S. starting early next week.
🎯IMPACT: Heavy rain, snow, and potential flooding are expected in California and other western states, with ongoing weather model uncertainties.
IN FULL
A super typhoon named Halong, which narrowly missed Japan this week, is expected to detrimentally influence weather patterns across the Pacific and western United States. While Tokyo avoided what could have been the equivalent of a Category 4 hurricane, meteorologists warn that the storm’s remnants could drive heavy rain and snow in California by early next week.
As Typhoon Halong moves into the North Pacific, it is predicted to energize the jet stream, intensifying storms along its path. The National Weather Service (NWS) noted that the storm could produce hurricane-force winds in Alaska’s Bering Sea, drawing comparisons to Typhoon Merbok in 2022, which caused significant damage in the region.
Forecasts suggest that the typhoon’s energy could push subarctic air southward into Washington, Oregon, and California by Monday. If this coincides with a coastal storm, Northern California might experience significant rainfall in the Bay Area and several feet of snow in the Sierra Nevada mountains. However, meteorologists caution that recurving typhoons make weather predictions less precise, and forecasts are subject to change.
Meanwhile, Hurricane Priscilla is moving north in the Pacific, with its path expected to affect southern California and Arizona. The National Hurricane Center (NHC) has issued warnings for several southwestern states, including New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, and Nevada, which could see heavy rain and flash flooding from the storm’s moisture.

📍WHEN & WHERE: North Dakota, ruling issued Wednesday, law effective since April 2023.
💬KEY QUOTE: “The evidence presented at trial establishes there is a legitimate concern regarding the capacity of minors to understand and appreciate the long-term consequences of the practices prohibited by the Health Care Law.” – Judge Jackson Lofgren
🎯IMPACT: The ruling allows the law to stand while permitting minors already receiving transgender medical interventions before its enactment to continue them.
IN FULL
A state district court judge in North Dakota has ruled that the state ban on transgender procedures for minors does not violate the North Dakota state constitution. Judge Jackson Lofgren stated that he found no evidence of an “invidious discriminatory purpose” by the legislature and that the law discriminates based on age and medical purpose rather than sex, the former being permissible under state law.
The law, which took effect in April 2023, makes performing transgender surgeries on minors a felony and prescribing or administering hormones or puberty blockers to minors to facilitate so-called gender transitions a misdemeanor. Judge Lofgren emphasized the ongoing debates and concerns surrounding these medical practices, writing, “The evidence presented at trial establishes there is a legitimate concern regarding the capacity of minors to understand and appreciate the long-term consequences of the practices prohibited by the Health Care Law.”
Republican state Representative Bill Tveit, who introduced the legislation, expressed satisfaction with the ruling. “It’s a law that needs to be there. We need to protect our youth, and that’s what the whole goal of this thing was from the beginning,” Tveit said.
The lawsuit was brought by several families and a pediatric endocrinologist. However, Judge Lofgren dismissed some of their claims, leaving only the physician as a plaintiff. He also granted a request allowing minors already receiving transgender “treatments” prior to the law’s enactment to continue them.
In June, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that states have the authority to ban transgender treatments for minors. North Dakota is among at least 27 states that have enacted laws restricting or banning such treatments.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The Justice Department will vigorously work to ensure businesses respect parents’ rights to decide when their children’s personal information can be collected and used.” – Brett A. Shumate
🎯IMPACT: The court order requires Apitor to cease data collection on children without parental consent and imposed a $500,000 penalty.
IN FULL
The Department of Justice (DOJ), in collaboration with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), is fining Apitor Technology Co., Ltd., a Chinese toymaker, for illegal privacy violations involving American children. The company was charged with violating the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act by collecting data through its programmable toy robots without parental consent.
A civil complaint filed in San Francisco federal court outlined how Apitor’s app, used to operate these toys, secretly collected geolocation data on children under 13. This unauthorized data collection compromised the sensitive personal information of minors, the complaint noted.
The court order mandates that Apitor stop collecting data on children without direct parental notification and consent. Although a $500,000 civil penalty was imposed, it was suspended as the company claimed inability to pay. The agreement also requires Apitor to delete all personal data collected from children.
“The Justice Department will vigorously work to ensure businesses respect parents’ rights to decide when their children’s personal information can be collected and used,” said Assistant Attorney General of the Civil Division Brett Shumate. He added: “We will continue to work with the FTC to stop unlawful intrusions on children’s privacy.”
China has a history of accumulating vast amounts of data from American networks, raising concerns about its intentions, especially in developing AI for espionage or information warfare. In the case of Apitor, the DOJ complaint notes, “Ultimately, defendant’s surreptitious collection of underage users’ geolocation information causes injury by compromising sensitive personal information of children.”

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) was forced to drop charges on Wednesday against Ray Collins, 31, and Jocelyn Robledo, 30, after a Chicago grand jury refused to indict the pair for assaulting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers and other federal agents at an area detention facility. Both Collins and Robledo were carrying loaded weapons during their attack on federal law enforcement.
This is not the first instance of a grand jury declining to indict leftists over the assault of federal officers. In August, federal prosecutors failed to secure a felony assault indictment against Sean C. Dunn, who allegedly screamed at a federal agent and pelted him with a sandwich in Washington, D.C., before attempting to flee in an incident that was caught on camera.
Concerningly, there may be an emerging pattern of biased grand juries in heavily Democratic cities failing to hold violent leftists accountable for their crimes. In the instance of Collins and Robledo, it remains unclear why the grand jury failed to indict despite a preponderance of evidence against them.
Collins and Robledo “refused to retreat” during a late September violent riot outside ICE’s Broadview detention facility. As fist-fighting broke out between rioters and federal agents, Robledo allegedly began to push and shove officers, while Collins was accused of rushing a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) agent. Upon arrest, both were found to be carrying legally registered, loaded handguns.

Jonathan Rinderknecht, a 29-year-old Florida man, is facing charges after allegedly starting the Palisades Fire in Los Angeles, California. The blaze burned nearly 24,000 acres, killed 12 people, and destroyed more than 7,000 homes and businesses. While prosecutors argue he deliberately set the fire in January, a growing focus of the case has been Rinderknecht’s online activity, which paints a picture of a man publicly obsessed with climate change and political activism.
On Facebook, Rinderknecht frequently shared content promoting environmental alarmism, veganism, and leftist politics. Among the articles he posted were “Climate Change Will Force a New American Migration” and “Senator Kamala Harris Says Meat is Destroying the Planet.” He often mocked President Donald J. Trump and his supporters, and reposted material from Democrats like Joe Biden.
Rinderknecht also shared links to Harris-Biden fundraising pages and uploaded AI-generated images of burning cities, some eerily similar to scenes from the fire he allegedly set.
Authorities believe the fire smoldered for days after being set before reigniting on January 7, causing an estimated $150 billion in damage. Shortly afterward, Rinderknecht left California and returned to Florida, where he is now being held without bail in Orlando.

On Thursday, the Georgia Prosecuting Attorneys’ Council (PAC), now handling disgraced and disqualified Fulton County District Attorney (DA) Fani Willis‘s prosecution against President Donald J. Trump and several others, secured a court-approved postponement to appoint a lead attorney for the matter. Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee extended the deadline for the agency to submit a candidate until November 14—pushing back from his initial 14-day timeline, though short of the longer 90-day delay PAC had requested.
The handover of Willis’s prosecution occurred following a judicial ruling that barred the Fulton County DA and her office from pursuing the trial, due to revelations about Willis’s personal affair with a special prosecutor she had appointed to the team. As the state body charged with aiding district attorneys and police statewide, PAC steps in to appoint replacements whenever a local prosecutor’s office faces an ethical conflict.
“Due to the complexity of this case and the vast personnel and resources required to handle a case of this nature, it will require time to seek a District Attorney Pro Tempore willing to take on this prosecution,” Peter Skandalakis, PAC’s top official, explained in his letter to McAfee seeking more time. Skandalakis had pushed for a 90-day grace period starting once PAC obtains the full case documents, which could have pushed proceedings into early 2026. Instead, McAfee opted for a shorter reprieve of roughly four additional weeks.
Previously, after courts removed Willis from probing Georgia Lt. Gov. Burt Jones (R), the PAC spent 21 months before designating Skandalakis to helm the inquiry—only for him to eventually forgo any charges.
In 2022, Willis leveled RICO charges against Trump and over a dozen co-defendants, claiming they orchestrated a plot to illegally undermine the 2020 election results in Georgia. Trump entered a not guilty plea, with Willis and her office eventually being removed from the prosecution.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: The Brothers of Italy (FdI) party, led by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, and Sara Kelany, an FdI spokeswoman on immigration, are spearheading the initiative.
📍WHEN & WHERE: The law was announced in Italy this week, with details reported by ANSA and other outlets.
💬KEY QUOTE: “Erasing a woman’s face means humiliating her. Some talk about free choice, but I find it hard to believe a woman would want to humiliate herself,” said Sara Kelany.
🎯IMPACT: The proposed law aims to safeguard Western values, tackle enclaves governed by Sharia law, and strengthen Italy’s legal framework against forced marriages and religious extremism.
IN FULL
Italy is set to introduce a new law aimed at tackling what the government describes as “Islamic separatism,” with a focus on hate preachers, foreign funding of mosques, forced marriages, and full-face coverings worn by women. The proposal comes from the ruling Brothers of Italy party (FdI), led by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.
Sara Kelany, the party’s spokesman on immigration, said the legislation is intended to protect Western values such as freedom, equality, and human rights. “The law would counter the development of counter-societies where Sharia law, rather than the Italian legal system, applies,” she stated.
A central feature of the bill includes a nationwide ban on the burqa and niqab, which fully cover the face, in public spaces, schools, workplaces, and universities. Kelany argued the measure is meant to protect women’s dignity, stating, “Erasing a woman’s face means humiliating her. Some talk about free choice, but I find it hard to believe a woman would want to humiliate herself.”
The bill also targets cultural practices linked to certain migrant communities, including forced marriages, especially those involving minors, and virginity tests or certificates, which would be criminalized. Another provision would restrict foreign financial support for mosques, in an effort to reduce outside influence that can promote radical ideologies.
The legislation comes amid broader concern in parts of Europe about the perceived growth of Islamist influence and “no-go zones.” In the United Kingdom, for instance, a man in Bradford received a suspended six-month sentence last year after physically assaulting three women who refused to wear the hijab. In Birmingham, England, the installation of a 16-foot statue called “The Strength of the Hijab” to celebrate the Islamic veil drew both praise and criticism.
Meanwhile, blasphemy-related incidents have resurfaced, including the conviction of a man for burning the Quran, and a separate case where a British judge admonished another man for doing the same, despite no official blasphemy laws being in place.

🎯IMPACT: A possible Argentine peso devaluation would likely set off a new inflation crisis, threatening to derail Milei’s government. Critical midterm elections will take place on October 26, 2025, with leftist parties working to retake control from Milei’s party, La Libertad Avanza.

Argentine President Javier Milei‘s government teeters on the brink as his country faces a significant currency crisis, kicked off by several major corruption scandals and a flight of investors from the Argentine peso. On Wednesday, short-term interest rates in the South American country surged to over 80 percent, worsening the peso crisis.
In late September, U.S. President Donald J. Trump authorized a $20 billion bailout for Argentina, overseen by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. However, with the peso crisis deepening, Bessent revealed that Treasury Department staff are intervening far more in the Argentine economy than previously thought.
“The [U.S. Treasury] has concluded 4 days of intensive meetings with [Argentina’s Economic Minister Luis Caputo] and his team in DC. We discussed Argentina’s strong economic fundamentals, including structural changes already underway that will generate significant dollar-denominated exports and foreign exchange reserves,” Bessent wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter). He continued: “Argentina faces a moment of acute illiquidity. The international community—including [The International Monetary Fund (IMF)]—is unified behind Argentina and its prudent fiscal strategy, but only the United States can act swiftly. And act we will.”
“Additionally, we have finalized a $20 billion currency swap framework with Argentina’s central bank. The U.S. Treasury is prepared, immediately, to take whatever exceptional measures are warranted to provide stability to markets,” Bessent added, referring to the $20 billion rescue package first revealed in September.
However, thus far, President Milei’s efforts to bring the crisis under control appear to be having little effect in heading off a potential devaluation. In recent weeks, Milei has reinstated some foreign exchange controls and authorized the selling of dollars in the futures market. However, many financial analysts now believe the peso’s current exchange rate is unsustainable.
A peso devaluation would likely set off a new inflation crisis, threatening to derail Milei’s government. Critical midterm elections will take place on October 26, 2025, with leftist parties working to retake control from Milei’s party, La Libertad Avanza.
While Milei has largely been successful in reining in the out-of-control inflation experienced under the country’s previous socialist governments, dropping from a peak of around 300 percent to just 33 percent in October 2025, the austerity measures enacted have kept the poverty rate elevated. In the first half of 2023, Argentina’s poverty rate sat at around 40 percent. That jumped to nearly 53 percent in the first half of 2024 before falling back to around 40 percent in the second half of the year.
The currency crisis and a renewed inflation crisis could send poverty soaring once again.

New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) has been indicted in Alexandria, Virginia, as part of an ongoing investigation pursued by the Department of Justice (DOJ). The charges relate to a 2023 mortgage James took out to assist her niece in purchasing a home in Norfolk, Virginia.
James previously campaigned on a platform of investigating President Donald J. Trump. She succeeded in a civil fraud case against Trump and his business, resulting in a $355 million penalty, which was later thrown out on appeal. During the trial, Trump expressed his disdain for James, labeling the investigation a “political witch hunt.”
The mortgage fraud investigation centers on discrepancies in James’s application documents, which make conflicting claims about whether or not a Virginia property would be her primary residence.

Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) is throwing his support behind growing calls for U.S. President Donald J. Trump to receive the Nobel Peace Prize if the Gaza peace deal holds and Trump helps bring an end to the Russia-Ukraine war. The 2025 Nobel Prize is set to be announced on Friday, with President Trump under consideration for the award after helping broker a number of peace agreements—including between Armenia and Azerbaijan, and Rwanda and Congo—but none more monumental than the ceasefire announced late Wednesday between Hamas and Israel.
“If this sticks… I think the whole point of having a Nobel Peace Prize is for ending wars and promoting peace. And if he brings the Ukrainian war to its end, I will be the Democrat leading the committee for his Nobel Peace Prize,” Fetterman said during a television interview on Thursday.
Trump, nominated by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has also received the backing of Israeli President Isaac Herzog. Notably, even Hamas is lauding President Trump. The group on Thursday praised “the efforts of U.S. President Donald Trump aimed at definitively stopping the war and the complete withdrawal of the occupation from the Gaza Strip.”
Sen. Fetterman’s remarks come as the chances of Trump winning the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize have surged following the Israel-Hamas ceasefire. Leading bookmaker Star Sports has now placed Trump as the second favorite to win, with odds improving from 5/1 (16.7 percent) on October 3 to 3/1 (25 percent).
