Twitter has canceled a package deal with the Daily Wire website, wherein the two companies were partnering to air Matt Walsh’s documentary What is a Woman? Daily Wire co-founder Jeremy Boreing claimed in a thread written Thursday that Twitter identified two instances of “misgendering,” which is considered “abuse and harassment.”
Upon reviewing the documentary, Twitter told the Wire they would only agree to the package provided the “misgendering” was edited out. The platform then insisted that the documentary’s visibility would be severely diminished, whereby it would not appear in the feeds of Twitter users. The Musk-run platform is allegedly now enforcing a “speech not reach” rule – a policy Boreing described as like saying “you have the right to cast a vote, but we’ll make sure it isn’t counted.”

“I hope @elonmusk will reconsider this awful policy,” Boreing concluded.
But it may not be Musk’s decision anymore. The new rules seem to coincide with the incoming CEO Linda Yacarrino, an executive chairwoman of the World Economic Forum (WEF) who has supported “de-risk[ing]” Twitter with “ad safety [and] content moderation.”
She even suggested to Musk that it would be wise to re-establish an “influence council” to help police speech. Meanwhile, Musk has been in China, kowtowing to the Chinese Communist Party.
This is one of the scenes from What Is A Woman that Twitter now says is hate speech.
We will still stream the movie here tonight in its entirety at 8 ET. Twitter has the next 12 hours to decide whether they want to be a true free speech platform or not. pic.twitter.com/8gCx6NB9H3

📍WHEN & WHERE: Recent actions in Chicago, Illinois; broader incidents across the U.S. involving ICE agents.
💬KEY QUOTE: “The wave of violence against ICE has been driven by online apps and social media campaigns designed to put ICE officers at risk just for doing their jobs.” – Attorney General Pam Bondi
🎯IMPACT: Increased scrutiny of platforms enabling doxxing and violence against ICE agents, alongside legal actions against people targeting federal law enforcement.
IN FULL
Facebook has removed a group page used to track and expose Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents operating in the Chicago area, according to Attorney General Pam Bondi. “Today following outreach from the Justice Department, Facebook removed a large group page that was being used to dox and target ICE agents in Chicago,” Bondi said in a statement. “The wave of violence against ICE has been driven by online apps and social media campaigns designed to put ICE officers at risk just for doing their jobs.”
Federal officials say the group, believed to be titled “ICE Sighting—Chicagoland,” was part of a growing trend of online efforts to undermine immigration enforcement. The Department of Homeland Security reports that attacks on ICE personnel have risen by more than 1,000 percent, including both doxxing attempts and physical assaults.
The Justice Department recently announced charges against three people—Cynthia Raygoza, Sandra Carmona Samane, and Ashleigh Brown—who allegedly followed an ICE agent to his home and livestreamed the confrontation. In a separate case, Apple removed an app called ICEBlock from its store in early October. The app allowed users to share the locations of ICE agents in real time and was reportedly used by Joshua Jahn, the suspect in a deadly shooting at a Dallas ICE facility that left two dead.
In Chicago, two suspects, Marimar Martinez and Anthony Ruiz, were recently charged after allegedly ramming their vehicles into federal agents, although despite the severity of the incident, a judge ordered both suspects released. In Illinois more broadly, a Democrat candidate for State Senate is also facing criticism after doxxing the hotel where ICE agents were staying and urging supporters to call and report them.
Anarchist websites have also targeted ICE in the Chicago area, publishing internal layouts of facilities, photos, and identifying details of agents, including names and badge numbers. Officials warn that these efforts increase the danger to law enforcement officers.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Leidy Tatiana Mafla-Martinez, ICE officers, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin, and attorney Carlos Juardo.
📍WHEN & WHERE: Mafla-Martinez was arrested on August 15 in Los Angeles and deported in October.
💬KEY QUOTE: “Under President Trump and Secretary Noem, if you break the law, you will face the consequences. Criminal illegal aliens are not welcome in the U.S.” – Tricia McLaughlin.
🎯IMPACT: The deportation highlights ongoing enforcement of immigration laws and the consequences for illegal immigrants engaging in criminal activity.
IN FULL
Leidy Tatiana Mafla-Martinez, a 24-year-old illegal alien from Colombia known for her vocal criticism of U.S. immigration enforcement on social media, was deported on October 8, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
Mafla-Martinez was arrested on August 15 in Los Angeles, California, while sitting inside her Tesla and recording a video. Footage of the arrest shows her resisting as officers from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) attempted to detain her. She can be heard repeatedly yelling “no, no, no” and demanding in Spanish, “Show me the warrant.”
Tricia McLaughlin, Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security, confirmed her deportation in a statement. “We are happy to report that on October 8, ICE removed Leidy Tatiana Mafla-Martinez, a criminal illegal alien from Colombia who was convicted for driving under the influence in Los Angeles. This criminal illegal alien entered the country in 2022 and was RELEASED by the Biden administration,” McLaughlin said.
Mafla-Martinez’s attorney, Carlos Juardo, argued that his client was targeted because of her anti-ICE activism, including TikTok posts where she criticized immigration enforcement and documented raids. During her arrest, several bystanders tried to interfere, with one person allegedly towing away a government vehicle while mocking and filming ICE agents. Mafla-Martinez had gained over 40,000 followers on TikTok.
Her deportation is the latest in a string of removals involving illegal immigrants with significant online followings. Earlier this year, Venezuelan TikTok influencer Leonel Moreno was deported after authorities said he promoted illegal squatting in vacant U.S. homes and encouraged others to exploit social services. Moreno had boasted online about living off American taxpayers.
In a separate incident, a Dominican national, Miguel Francisco Mora Nunez, was arrested in July after allegedly shooting at a U.S. Border Patrol agent in New York. Mora Nunez had a previous removal order but had reentered the country illegally and was later released under current immigration protocols before being arrested again.

🎯IMPACT: Griffin’s lack of integrity has further undermined the credibility of The View and its personalities.
IN FULL
President Donald J. Trump on Tuesday took a few jabs at ABC’s The View and co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin, who had pledged to wear a MAGA hat for a full episode if Hamas released its remaining Israeli hostages. Speaking at the White House on Tuesday, the President inquired whether Griffin had followed through on her promise from last December, in which she stated that if Trump “gets the hostages out, I promise that I will wear a MAGA hat for one day on the show and say, ‘Thank you for doing it.'”
Alyssa Farah on The View last January:
“If he gets the Israeli hostages out, I promise I will wear a MAGA hat for one day on this show.”pic.twitter.com/qdr4oBy7y0
When asked by a reporter about the pledge, Trump responded, “Did she put the hat on?” The reporter noted that Griffin had not. Trump then sought clarification on who exactly the reporter was referencing, wanting to be sure it was Griffin who made the pledge.
After being reminded of Griffin’s identity, Trump remarked, “She used to work here… She gave me the most beautiful letter you have ever seen. ‘I was a great president. What a great job.’ Some of the letters have been quoted. This is Alyssa, who I never thought was very outstanding, and she didn’t have a big role here, either. And then we had January 6, and she left.”
🚨 REPORTER: Alyssa Farah of The View said, ‘If Trump gets the Israeli hostages out, I PROMISE, I’ll wear a MAGA hat for a day on this show and say thank you.’ Your response?

Griffin served as White House director of strategic communications in 2020. Trump’s comments referenced a letter she wrote upon her departure, praising his administration’s accomplishments. However, Griffin later criticized Trump following the election protests on January 6 and became a co-host on The View in 2022.
Griffin did admit on Monday’s episode of The View that Trump and his team deserved credit for the release of hostages, saying, “Whether you like Trump or not, I think that he, Steve Witkoff, and I think Jared Kushner do deserve credit for this deal.”

📍WHEN & WHERE: The strike occurred in international waters near Venezuela and was announced on October 14.
💬KEY QUOTE: “The strike was conducted in International Waters, and six male narco-terrorists aboard the vessel were killed in the strike. No U.S. Forces were harmed. Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!!!!” – Donald Trump
🎯IMPACT: This marks the latest U.S. airstrike targeting Venezuelan drug-trafficking boats, escalating tensions with Venezuela and the Maduro regime.
IN FULL
President Donald J. Trump has confirmed on Truth Social that the U.S. military has conducted an airstrike on another drug vessel in international waters near Venezuela, resulting in the deaths of six narco-terrorists aboard. Trump stated that the operation was carried out with his direct approval under the direction of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
“The strike was conducted in International Waters, and six male narco-terrorists aboard the vessel were killed in the strike. No U.S. Forces were harmed. Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!!!!” Trump wrote. He also shared a 33-second video showing the destruction of the vessel.
This marks the latest U.S. airstrike targeting Venezuelan drug-smuggling boats since Trump’s return to office. Previous strikes have reportedly killed a total of 21 narco-terrorists so far. In an earlier operation, a boat connected to the criminal group Tren de Aragua was struck, killing 11 people. Another airstrike last month resulted in the deaths of four suspected traffickers. According to Secretary Hegseth, the vessels were tied to terrorist organizations operating in the region.
The Venezuelan government has condemned the strikes as violations of international law. In response to earlier U.S. operations, Venezuela launched extensive military drills involving naval and air forces, drones, and electronic warfare systems, particularly near the island of La Orchila, home to key military infrastructure. The Maduro regime has labeled these exercises defensive in nature, aimed at protecting national sovereignty.
Diplomatic relations between the United States and Venezuela have been severed following the escalation of these military actions. President Trump has consistently referred to Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro as both a dictator and a drug kingpin, signaling a hardline approach as tensions between the two countries continue to rise.

🎯IMPACT: The Medal and Proclamation honor Kirk for his work and legacy on behalf of American freedoms, including free and open debate.

President Donald J. Trump awarded Charlie Kirk a posthumous Presidential Medal of Freedom while also signing a Proclamation that October 14 shall be known as a “National Day of Remembrance for Charlie Kirk”—the date marking Kirk’s birthday. On September 10 this year, Kirk was assassinated, allegedly by leftist radical Tyler Robinson, while holding a Turning Point USA (TPUSA) debate event on the campus of Utah Valley University.
“On the afternoon of Wednesday, September 10, 2025, pure evil struck when the legendary Charlie Kirk was assassinated in broad daylight in a campus courtyard, triggering a groundswell of righteous fury all across our land,” the Presidential Proclamation states. “Today, our Nation honors the immortal memory of Charlie—a father, a husband, a Christian martyr, and a titan of the American conservative movement. We honor his life, we send our condolences to his beautiful family, and we pledge to advance the values for which he laid down his life.”
“As we mourn this extraordinary loss, my Administration will continue to do everything in its power to end this devastating wave of political violence. No civilized country can endure a culture where open debate is met with gunfire, the pursuit of truth is met with bloodshed, and love of country is met with seething hatred,” the Proclamation adds.
A large crowd gathered in the White House Rose Garden on Tuesday evening for the medal ceremony, with Trump speaking alongside Kirk’s widow, Erika. President Trump reflected on Kirk’s life, achievements, and friendship while lamenting the surge in left-wing political violence across the country.

“Charlie Kirk was one of a kind… he was indomitable… and we will hold him in our hearts forever,” Trump said.

IN FULL
Ashley Tellis, a senior adviser to the State Department and contractor with the Office of Net Assessment at the Department of War, has been accused of unlawfully retaining classified documents and meeting with Chinese officials over the past several years. Court documents reveal that Tellis, who held a top-secret clearance, began working for the State Department in 2001 and is considered an expert on India and South Asian affairs.
Federal prosecutors allege that Tellis had access to sensitive information and used his position to unlawfully obtain classified materials. During a search of his Vienna, Virginia, home, authorities reportedly found over 1,000 pages of documents marked “TOP SECRET” and “SECRET.”
On multiple occasions, Tellis allegedly met with Chinese officials, including a meeting in September 2022 at a Virginia restaurant where he was observed holding a manila envelope. In April 2023, prosecutors claim Tellis discussed Iranian-Chinese relations and emerging technologies with Chinese officials during a dinner meeting.
Additionally, Tellis reportedly received a gift bag during a September 2 dinner meeting with Chinese officials. On September 25, he allegedly printed classified U.S. Air Force documents concerning military aircraft capabilities, further raising concerns about potential espionage activities.
The National Pulse reported in October last year that Chinese Communist Party (CCP)-sponsored espionage efforts in the United States significantly increased in the United States under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. According to a lengthy congressional investigation, there were over 55 instances of Chinese espionage in 20 states between January 2021 and October 2024. These cases involve the transmission of sensitive military data, theft of trade secrets, repression schemes against dissidents, and obstruction of justice.
Additionally, the report mentions various incidents involving Chinese nationals, including an attempted breach at the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center in California in March. It also highlights the case of Ji Chaoqun, who was sentenced to eight years in January 2023 for working as an illegal agent for China in the U.S. Chaoqun’s role reportedly involved efforts to recruit American scientists and engineers and gain access to advanced technologies.

📍WHEN & WHERE: July and August 2025, across Europe and NATO-aligned countries.
💬KEY QUOTE: “Europe is scaling back its overall military support. What will be crucial now is how the figures evolve in the autumn,” said Christoph Trebesch of the Kiel Institute.
🎯IMPACT: A 57 percent reduction in European military aid raises questions about Ukraine’s ability to sustain its defense capabilities, and European NATO members’ commitment to pulling their weight relative to the United States.
IN FULL
European military aid to Ukraine dropped significantly this summer, despite the launch of a new NATO initiative designed to streamline arms deliveries. A report released Tuesday by the Kiel Institute for the World Economy found that European countries provided or pledged around €3.3 billion (approximately $3.8 billion) in military support during July and August—a 57 percent decrease from the earlier monthly average of €3.85 billion (about $4.5 billion). Military assistance from all donor countries declined overall, but by a lower average rate of 43 percent.
Much of the aid provided over the summer came through NATO’s Prioritised Ukraine Requirements List, or PURL, a program launched in July that enables member countries to purchase U.S. stockpiles of weapons and ammunition for Ukraine. By the end of August, eight NATO members, including Germany, Canada, and Belgium, had contributed a total of €1.9 billion (about $2.2 billion USD) through the PURL framework.
Unlike military support, humanitarian and financial aid have remained relatively stable. In the first half of 2025 alone, Europe provided €7.5 billion ($8.7 billion USD) in non-military assistance, despite the absence of any new financial commitments from the U.S.
Christoph Trebesch, head of the Ukraine Support Tracker at the Kiel Institute, warned that the decline in military assistance could undermine Ukraine’s ability to continue defending itself. “Europe is scaling back its overall military support,” he said. “What will be crucial now is how the figures evolve in the autumn.”
The downturn in aid comes as Ukraine continues to struggle against ongoing Russian assaults. Russian forces have recently intensified strikes on energy infrastructure, and President Vladimir Putin claimed earlier this month that Russian troops had captured nearly 5,000 square kilometers (1,930 square miles) of Ukrainian territory in 2025 alone.
Meanwhile, Western public support is waning. A recent poll showed that only one in ten Europeans believes Ukraine can win the war.

IN FULL
Jackson Fleming, a former Naval Academy student, was arrested in mid-September on one count of making a threat across state lines. Federal prosecutors, in an indictment filed last week, allege that Fleming threatened a “mass execution” on social media the day after Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk was assassinated.
The alleged message, posted on September 11 from Fleming’s hometown of Chesterton, Indiana, stated: “Honestly not that surprised I’ll be carrying out the mass execution of my peers in a couple,” according to court documents. The post was reportedly made on Jodel, an app popular among college campuses for anonymous, hyper-local communication.
Authorities claim Fleming altered his IP address to make it appear as though he was on the Naval Academy campus at the time of the post, rather than in Indiana. The threat prompted a lockdown at the Naval Academy, during which two people were injured.
Fleming, who left the Naval Academy midway through his junior year, was indicted on October 8 for “interstate communications with a threat to injure” against the Annapolis, Maryland, school. He was released on a $20,000 bond, and his trial date has not yet been set.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Michael Henry, Letitia James, GOP chairs from Brooklyn, Staten Island, Bronx, Queens, and Manhattan.
📍WHEN & WHERE: October 14, 2025; New York City.
💬KEY QUOTE: “He understands what New Yorkers are facing and will not bow to political pressure or partisan witch hunts.” – Liam McCabe
🎯IMPACT: Henry aims to leverage the endorsement to strengthen his campaign against James.
IN FULL
The Republican committee chairmen from New York City‘s five boroughs have thrown their support behind Michael Henry, who is preparing to challenge Letitia James for the position of state Attorney General. These endorsements come as Henry attempts to unseat James following his previous attempt in 2022, which saw him fall just 500,000 votes shy of defeating the anti-Trump Democrat.
Brooklyn GOP Chair Liam McCabe praised Henry, stating, “He understands what New Yorkers are facing and will not bow to political pressure or partisan witch hunts.” Henry, a commercial litigator, had garnered 45 percent of the vote in his previous race against James, which McCabe noted was “the best showing for a Republican in decades.”
Henry is capitalizing on the state’s campaign finance matching system to boost his campaign, having around $275,000 in the bank as of June. Staten Island Republican Chair Michael Tannousis emphasized Henry’s approach, saying, “As an attorney and as a leader, he represents the kind of common-sense, law-and-order approach this city and state need.”
Henry has criticized James’ handling of her office, asserting that he would not “weaponize” the law for political purposes. He stated, “New Yorkers deserve an Attorney General who will enforce the law fairly, not weaponize it for politics.” During her tenure as New York’s Attorney General, James pursued a highly partisan lawfare campaign against President Donald J. Trump in an effort to directly interfere in the 2024 election and prevent the America First leader from retaking the White House.
With additional endorsements from gubernatorial candidate Congressswoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY)—along with Manhattan GOP Chair Andrea Catsimatidis and Queens GOP Chair Tony Nunziato—Henry is positioning himself as a strong contender in the upcoming election against James, who has been accused by Bronx GOP Chairman Mike Rendino of turning the Attorney General’s Office into a “political weapon.”
The National Pulse previously reported that James is facing a criminal indictment for mortgage fraud. The charges relate to a 2023 mortgage James took out to assist her niece in purchasing a home in Norfolk, Virginia.
