Newsweek, the Daily Beast, and National Review have all peddled the false information that Tucker Carlson, formerly of Fox News, is in cahoots with Russian state television, apparently airing a show called Tucker. No such show appears to exist, however, with Rossiya 24, a state-owned station, simply lifting clips from Tucker Carlson’s YouTube page and airing them with Russian-language dubbing.
The false information appears to have emanated from Ukraine’s Institute of Mass Information, then regurgitated by Ukraine Pravda, and finally ended up in far-left and neoconservative websites in the United States. Newsweek has a distinct problem with publishing easily debunked false information in recent months.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Plans were detailed on Monday, with a shutdown potentially beginning at midnight on Tuesday across the United States.
🎯IMPACT: Federal agencies will furlough workers, pause economic data releases, and suspend certain services.
IN FULL
The Trump administration has begun outlining plans for which government services will be paused in the event of a federal shutdown beginning at midnight. Among the measures, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is expected to furlough 41 percent of its workforce, while other agencies plan to suspend various operations.
Unlike previous shutdowns, the administration has indicated it may use the funding lapse to implement mass layoffs and reduce the size of the federal government. According to a memo from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), training and onboarding of new federal employees will be prohibited during a shutdown, but those overseeing potential terminations will continue working. Furloughed employees will also be allowed to check government-issued emails for layoff notices.
Senator Gary Peters (D-MI), the top Democrat member of the Senate committee overseeing shutdown operations, criticized the administration’s approach, stating it “threatens to cause lasting damage to the country and the safety of the American people by mass firing nonpartisan, expert civil servants.”
The Department of Labor (DOL) announced that economic data releases, including the September employment report, would be suspended during a shutdown. Similarly, the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) would halt GDP statistics reporting. However, crucial government benefits such as Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid will remain unaffected, as they are funded through mandatory spending.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS), backed by supplemental funding from the Inflation Reduction Act, will continue full operations. Meanwhile, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has stated medical care and benefits would continue, though cemetery maintenance would cease.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The directives were announced during a gathering on Tuesday at a Marine Corps base in Virginia.
💬KEY QUOTE: “If women can make it excellent. If not, it is what it is. If that means no women qualify for some combat jobs, so be it.” – Pete Hegseth
🎯IMPACT: Hegseth’s policies aim to reinstate male standards for combat roles, overhaul definitions of toxic leadership, and remove anonymous reporting processes for harassment and discrimination complaints.
IN FULL
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth addressed over 800 senior military leaders at a Marine Corps base in Virginia, unveiling a series of new directives aimed at reversing policies on combat roles for women and redefining standards for leadership and conduct in the military. The meeting, held on Tuesday, marked a significant shift in Pentagon policies under President Donald J. Trump.
Hegseth stated that his directives would restore “a ruthless, dispassionate and common sense application of standards” that are “uniform, gender neutral and high.” He emphasized that combat roles would return to the “highest male standard only,” effectively reversing a 2015 directive that opened all combat roles to women. “If you do not meet the male level physical standards for combat positions … it’s time for a new position or a new profession,” he said.
.@SecWar announces new directives to ensure that every military Combat MOS and Combat Arms position will return “to the highest male standard only — because this job is life or death.”
The Secretary also criticized efforts to eliminate “toxic leadership” and claimed that definitions of hazing and bullying had been “weaponized” to undermine effective leaders. He announced a review of these definitions, aiming to empower leaders to enforce standards without fear of retribution. “Real, toxic leadership is promoting people based on immutable characteristics or quotas instead of based on merit,” Hegseth remarked.
Additionally, Hegseth revealed plans to reform the Pentagon Inspector General’s (IG) office and Equal Opportunity offices to prevent what he described as the “weaponization” of complaint processes. He stated that anonymous reporting for harassment and discrimination complaints would be eliminated, as well as “frivolous complaints” that he claimed have harmed reputations and careers.
The directives also include the implementation of a “1990 test,” which evaluates current military standards against those from 1990 to determine whether changes were necessary or the result of political priorities. Hegseth concluded by assuring military leaders that his reforms are designed to “put leadership back in the driver’s seat.”

🎯IMPACT: The family, who had recently moved into their first home, is now left without their primary provider. The Dallas ICE field office is set to reopen with increased security.
IN FULL
Miguel Angel Garcia-Hernandez, 32, has died following a sniper attack on a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) field office in Dallas, Texas, according to the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC). Garcia-Hernandez was shot at least eight times during the September 24 attack and was taken to Parkland Hospital in critical condition. He passed away after being removed from life support.
His wife, Stephany Gauffeny, described him as a “good man, a loving father, and the provider for our family.” She added, “We had just bought our first home together, and he worked hard every single day to make sure our children had what they needed. His death is a senseless tragedy that has left our family shattered. I do not know how to explain to our children that their father is gone.”
Last week, Joshua Jahns—motivated by anti-ICE sentiment and far-left ideology—opened fire on the ICE field office and a van sitting in its portico. The indiscriminate fire struck three ICE detainees, killing one and wounding others, including Garcia-Hernandez. Jahns subsequently committed suicide but left a trail of evidence regarding his radical far-left political motivations.
A third victim, Jose Andres Bordones-Molina, has been released from hospital, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The Dallas ICE field office, which serves as a temporary holding facility for detainees, is expected to reopen on Tuesday with increased security measures.
The facility reportedly held an average of 47 detainees per day between January and mid-June, with migrants spending an average of seven hours in detention, according to ICE data.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Charlie Kirk was assassinated on September 10, 2025, on the Utah Valley University campus in Utah, with the broadening investigation revealed on September 30, 2025.
💬KEY QUOTE: “Why did Armed Queers SLC delete their Instagram after Charlie was murdered?” – Rep. Anna Paulina Luna.
🎯IMPACT: The investigation has raised concerns about foreign interference, domestic extremism, and the activities of groups like Armed Queers SLC and the Party for Socialism and Liberation.
IN FULL
Federal officials are probing potential extremist ties of Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old man accused of assassinating Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is examining whether Robinson, who had a transgender lover, had connections to Armed Queers SLC, a self-described militant LGBTQ organization advocating for “the armed and militant protection of queer and trans communities” and the establishment of a socialist society.
The group, founded by trans activist Ermiya Fanaeian in 2021, has been linked to socialist and communist ideologies. Social media posts from Armed Queers SLC, now deleted, reportedly showcased support for communist regimes and called for violence to end what they described as a “war against trans people.” Fanaeian, the son of Iranian immigrants, has also been connected to the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), which is alleged to receive funding from China-based businessman Neville Singham.
Charlie Kirk, 31, known for his outspoken opposition to gender ideology, was murdered on the Utah Valley University campus on September 10. Robinson turned himself in 33 hours later and reportedly confessed to his trans partner, Lance Twiggs, who cooperated with investigators. No charges have been brought against Twiggs, but the FBI continues to follow leads connecting Robinson to Armed Queers SLC.
Representative Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), a friend of Kirk’s, confirmed the FBI’s investigation into the group’s potential ties to foreign adversaries and questioned the swift deletion of Armed Queers SLC’s social media accounts following Kirk’s assassination. “Why did Armed Queers SLC delete their Instagram after Charlie was murdered?” Luna asked, adding that the group’s founder and PSL members have been documented visiting adversarial nations like Cuba and Venezuela.
Congressional investigators have also raised concerns about Neville Singham’s alleged funding of extremist groups, including PSL, and its potential ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). While no direct evidence has been made public linking Robinson to Armed Queers SLC, sources familiar with the investigation described the group as “domestic terrorists” and noted their foreign connections. The investigation remains ongoing.

IN FULL
More than 100,000 federal workers are set to resign on Tuesday, marking the largest mass resignation in U.S. history. The resignations are the conclusion of buyout agreements entered into with the Trump administration this past February, with the federal workers’ tenure set to end at the conclusion of the 2025 fiscal year.
Despite misleading reports, the resignations are not politically motivated nor are they new departures. Rather, the terminations were voluntarily agreed to months ago, with many of the federal workers either having already moved on to the private sector or using the intervening time to find new work. Notably, a number of the 100,000 employees—per their buyout agreements—have not worked for the federal government in any significant capacity for several months or more.
In addition to the scheduled resignations per the terms of the buyout agreements, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has warned that if a temporary federal government funding agreement in Congress is not reached before October 1, the agency will be laying off some non-essential workers in addition to furloughs.
With a potential government shutdown looming, President Donald J. Trump held eleventh-hour negotiations with Republican and Democratic congressional leaders at the White House on Monday evening. Despite the last-minute budget talks, most lawmakers on Capitol Hill have indicated that at least a short closure of some federal agencies is likely.
House and Senate Democrats have demanded that any short-term funding measure include hundreds of billions of dollars in healthcare funding for illegal immigrants and the repeal of certain provisions in President Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill Act.”

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Labour Party members, Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy, and the UN Commission of Inquiry.
📍WHEN & WHERE: During the Labour Party conference in Liverpool, England, following the UN report released nearly two weeks ago.
💬KEY QUOTE: “It must be for the ICJ [International Court of Justice] with their judges and judiciary, and for the ICC [International Criminal Court], to determine the issue of genocide in relation to the convention, it is not for politicians like me to do that.” – David Lammy
🎯IMPACT: The party vote embarrasses the Labour government, which has not endorsed the view that Israel is acting with genocidal intent in Gaza.
IN FULL
Britain’s governing Labour Party has voted to acknowledge that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza at its annual party conference, following the findings of a United Nations commission of inquiry. The vote, passed with strong backing from trade unions, embarrasses Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s government, as neither he nor his Cabinet has endorsed the view that Israel is acting with genocidal intent, and piles pressure on them to align with their party base.
The UN commission concluded earlier this month that there are “reasonable grounds” to believe Israel has committed four of five genocidal acts outlined under international law since the war with Hamas began in 2023. Israel has rejected the report’s findings, calling them “distorted and false.”
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and his Cabinet have stopped short of endorsing the genocide label, insisting that such determinations should be left to international courts. Israel is currently the subject of a case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague, where it faces charges of genocide brought by South Africa.
Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy responded to the conference vote by reaffirming the government’s position. “It must be for the ICJ with their judges and judiciary, and for the ICC [International Criminal Court], to determine the issue of genocide in relation to the convention,” he said. “It is not for politicians like me to do that.”
Lammy, who has previously described President Donald J. Trump’s Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement as a “cult of white supremacists,” did add that, during his tenure as Foreign Secretary, he had identified a “clear risk” of Israel breaching international humanitarian law. Consequently, dozens of arms export licences to Israel have been suspended, and targeted sanctions on certain Israeli officials have been imposed.
Earlier this month, Starmer’s government also formally recognized Palestinian statehood.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Secretary of Transportation and NASA Administrator Sean Duffy and other international space agency leaders.
📍WHEN & WHERE: Announcement made at the International Aeronautical Congress in Sydney, Australia, September 2025.
💬KEY QUOTE: “We’re going back to the Moon, and this time, when we plant our flag, we stay.” – Sean Duffy
🎯IMPACT: The lunar base will pave the way for future Mars exploration and enhance U.S. leadership in space exploration.
IN FULL
Secretary of Transportation and NASA Administrator Sean Duffy has announced plans to establish a permanent presence on the Moon by 2035. Speaking at the International Aeronautical Congress in Sydney, Australia, Duffy said, “We are going to have sustained human life on the Moon. Not just an outpost, but a village.”
This initiative will be driven by the Artemis program, which is set to return humans to the lunar surface for the first time since the Apollo era. Artemis II, scheduled for February 2026, will test both the Space Launch System rocket and the Orion spacecraft in a crewed mission around the Moon. The follow-up, Artemis III, targets a 2027 lunar landing. Unlike previous missions, astronauts will remain on the Moon for a full week, gathering critical data to support long-term habitation.
To sustain operations during the Moon’s 14-day night, when solar power is unavailable, NASA plans to deploy a compact nuclear reactor. The Fission Surface Power System, as it is called, must weigh under 15 tonnes and produce 100 kilowatts of electricity, enough to support life-support systems, equipment, and communication infrastructure. NASA is currently seeking industry partners to help develop the reactor.
Construction of the base itself may rely heavily on lunar resources. NASA is exploring ways to mix lunar soil with binding agents to create a form of cement, which could be used with 3D printing technologies to build structures on-site. These methods are not only intended for the Moon but may also play a role in future Mars missions requiring long-term human presence.
“We’re going back to the Moon, and this time, when we plant our flag, we stay,” Duffy said. He framed the effort as part of a new “space race,” with the United States aiming to stay ahead of rivals such as China in space exploration and technology.
Meanwhile, on Mars, the Perseverance rover recently collected a rock sample that may show signs of ancient microbial life, although scientists caution that the evidence is not definitive. NASA is also monitoring a house-sized asteroid set to pass near Earth, and, in deep space, Voyager 1 has begun transmitting garbled data as it travels beyond the edge of the solar system.

IN FULL
President Donald J. Trump has offered a “salute” to the “millions of Christian believers in the United States and around the world observing the Feast of Saint Michael the Archangel,” or Michaelmas, in a presidential message.
“According to sacred Scripture, when the Devil rebelled against God in Heaven, Saint Michael and his legion of angels cast Satan down to Earth—triumphantly reasserting God’s sovereignty over all creation,” the President wrote, noting how, for two millennia, “Christians have looked to Saint Michael the Archangel for protection, strength, and courage in times of conflict, distress, and doubt.”
He also cited the “legendary Prayer to Saint Michael” formulated by Pope Leo XIII in 1886, quoting it in full:
“Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.”
Notably, following President Trump’s near-assassination in Butler, Pennsylvania, last year, the Catholics for Catholics group paid for billboards featuring the America First leader raising his fist after he was shot, alongside the words “St. Michael The Archangel, Defend Us In Battle.” However, the Lamar Advertising Company refused to run them.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The incident occurred in August in Los Angeles, California, with the indictment announced this month.
💬KEY QUOTE: “Our brave federal agents put their lives on the line every day to keep our nation safe. The conduct of these defendants are deeply offensive to law enforcement officers and their families,” said Acting U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli.
🎯IMPACT: The defendants face charges of conspiracy and publicly disclosing the personal information of a federal agent, with potential prison time if convicted.
IN FULL
Three women in Los Angeles, California, have been indicted for allegedly doxxing a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent by following him home, livestreaming him, and posting his personal information online. Federal prosecutors say the women tracked the agent from a federal building in downtown Los Angeles to his residence in Baldwin Park, where they shouted, “ICE lives on your street and you should know,” before sharing his address publicly, putting him and his family at risk from cartels and other malign actors involved in illegal immigration and trafficking.
The indictment charges the women with conspiracy and with disclosing the personal information of a federal officer. One of the accused, a 25-year-old from Panorama City, California, has been released on a $5,000 bond. Another, a 38-year-old from Aurora, Colorado, remains in custody without bond and is also facing unrelated assault charges. Authorities are still searching for the third suspect, a 37-year-old from Riverside, California.
Acting U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli condemned their actions, saying, “Our brave federal agents put their lives on the line every day to keep our nation safe. The conduct of these defendants are deeply offensive to law enforcement officers and their families. If you threaten, dox, or harm in any manner one of our agents or employees, you will face prosecution and prison time.”
This case comes amid a series of violent anti-ICE riots in California. In June, a man named Elpidio Reyna was arrested at the U.S.–Mexico border after allegedly throwing concrete blocks at federal agents during a protest in Paramount. Authorities say Reyna fled to Mexico after the attack, which injured one officer and damaged government vehicles. He later surrendered at the San Ysidro port of entry and is now in custody. There have also been two sniper attacks targeting ICE personnel in Texas, one of which resulted in a responding police officer being shot in the neck.
Despite the tensions, ICE reports a dramatic rise in recruitment since July. According to agency data, more than 141,000 people have applied to join ICE in recent months, and over 18,000 tentative job offers have been extended. The agency attributes the increase to expanded benefits, including signing bonuses, student loan forgiveness, and enhanced retirement packages. Many former ICE officers who left under previous administrations have also reapplied.

IN FULL
President Donald J. Trump will attend a major meeting of top military leaders from around the world on Tuesday in Quantico, Virginia. Despite rampant speculation as to the gathering’s purpose, particularly amid reports of military action against drug cartels in Venezuela, Trump has characterized it as a positive meeting focused on discussing the military’s progress and future under Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
“It’s really just a very nice meeting talking about how well we’re doing militarily, talking about being in great shape, talking about a lot of good, positive things. It’s just a good message,” President Trump said, despite rumors that the meeting might involve mass firings of top officers. He added that its agenda includes “great things” happening within the military since Hegseth took over.
The meeting will also address the military’s restructuring efforts, including Hegseth’s “Less Generals More GIs Policy,” which aims to reduce the number of generals and admirals by 20 percent, with a second phase targeting an additional 10 percent reduction. Hegseth has been vocal about his intent to streamline leadership and prioritize enlisted personnel.
The logistics for hosting such a high-profile event are complex, involving extensive security measures for senior military leadership and the added presence of President Trump, requiring coordination with the United States Secret Service (USSS).
