1: Trump Reverses Course, Will Rally in Kansas and Iowa After Canceling Final-Weekend Trips

A day after saying “I don’t feel I have to go to Kansas,” the president put both battleground stops back on for Sunday

President Donald Trump will hold back-to-back rallies in Iowa and Kansas on Sunday after first canceling them in favor of phone “telerallies.” The reversal comes as a new poll shows Republican Sen. Roger Marshall trailing in Kansas. Trump insists the change had nothing to do with his health: “I feel perfect.”

Why It Matters to You: Kansas and Iowa could decide which party controls the Senate. The outcome will shape whether President Trump can confirm judges and pass his agenda in his final two years. Read more →

2: Pope Leo XIV Votes by Mail in Illinois Midterms, a First for Any Pope

The Vatican says the Chicago-born pontiff believes in “the right and the duty of citizens to participate in democratic processes”

Pope Leo XIV has mailed in his ballot for Tuesday’s midterm elections, the Vatican confirmed, making him the first pope ever to vote in an American election. The Chicago native remains a registered voter in Will County, Illinois. His vote comes after months of public friction with President Donald Trump.

Why It Matters to You: If the leader of 1.4 billion Catholics can vote from Vatican City, few Americans have an excuse to sit out an election that will decide control of Congress. Read more →

3: Nancy Pelosi Says Mamdani and El-Sayed’s Past Comments on Israel Are “Wrong”

Asked if the remarks were concerning, the former speaker said, “No, it’s more than concerning. It’s wrong”

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi broke with two of the left’s rising stars on Israel. On Donny Deutsch’s podcast, she said past comments by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Michigan Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed questioning Israel as a Jewish state are wrong. She also insisted antisemitism is rare in her party.

Why It Matters to You: The Democratic Party’s stance on Israel affects America’s most important alliance in the Middle East and the safety of Jewish Americans at home. With El-Sayed days from a possible Senate seat, his views could soon help shape U.S. foreign policy. Read more →

4: James Comey Heads to Court to Fight Third Trump DOJ Prosecution Over 2016 Leak

The former FBI director calls the new Espionage Act charges “an appalling abuse of the Department of Justice”

Former FBI Director James Comey appeared in federal court Friday as his lawyers pushed to throw out new charges accusing him of leaking classified information to The New York Times in 2016. It is the third time in just over a year that the Justice Department has charged him. Comey says he is “still innocent.”

Why It Matters to You: If a top FBI official leaked classified information, Americans deserve accountability. If the charges cannot stand up in court, the case will raise its own questions about how the Justice Department uses its power. Read more →

5: Pete Hegseth Fires Top Pentagon Strategist Accused of Leaking Classified Iran and Ukraine War Information

Lt. Gen. Brett Sylvia reportedly failed three polygraph exams, and the case has been referred to the Justice Department

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has fired Lt. Gen. Brett Sylvia, the three-star general who led the Joint Staff’s strategy and plans directorate. A Pentagon official told Fox News that Sylvia leaked classified information about the Iran war and Russia’s war in Ukraine to journalists. Sylvia has not been charged and has not commented publicly.

Why It Matters to You: Leaks of classified war information can put American troops and missions at risk. With the U.S. weighing new action against Iran, who can be trusted with the nation’s secrets matters to every military family. Read more →
