1: Michigan Democrat Abdul El-Sayed Deletes Old 9/11 Posts as 25th Anniversary Nears

The Senate nominee’s campaign says the posts were removed to avoid being taken out of context — but the timing has invited fresh scrutiny of his past comments on America’s response to the attacks.

Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed quietly deleted years-old social media posts invoking the September 11 attacks, CBS News confirmed, including a 2021 post in which he wrote he would mourn 9/11’s roughly 3,000 victims and then “mourn ~1M lives, millions of injuries, & infrastructural devastation in 3 countries” from the wars that followed. Confronted by a reporter, El-Sayed said “What happened on 9/11 is a disaster. It was a terrible attack on our country,” while his campaign called the scrutiny “bad-faith lies.” The revelation lands just ahead of the attacks’ 25th anniversary and as El-Sayed faces pressure from fellow Democrats to distance himself from a controversial past campaign surrogate.

Why It Matters to You: With Republican Mike Rogers making his second bid to flip Michigan’s Senate seat, El-Sayed’s deleted posts — and his refusal to cut ties with a commentator who’s made his own inflammatory 9/11 remarks — hand the GOP a ready-made character issue in one of the country’s most closely watched midterm races.

2: Rubio Lands in Colombia, Signs ‘Barranquilla Agreements’ With Trump-Aligned President

The deal covers critical minerals, civil nuclear cooperation, and a security partnership Colombia’s president says will make it America’s top hemispheric ally.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio met with Colombian President Abelardo de la Espriella in Barranquilla on Monday, the first stop of a three-nation Latin America tour, signing what the two governments are calling the “Barranquilla Agreements.” Rubio said “the most important function of any government in any country in the world is the security of its people,” while de la Espriella declared that “Colombia wants to re-establish itself as the United States’ primary partner in hemispheric security.” The two also signed memorandums on critical minerals and civil nuclear cooperation, with de la Espriella requesting U.S. radar and drone technology to fight armed groups.

Why It Matters to You: With China vying for influence across Latin America, Rubio’s high-profile embrace of Colombia’s new government hands the administration a concrete win in its “Donroe Doctrine” push to lock down U.S. dominance in the Western Hemisphere ahead of the midterms. Read more →

3: Hillary Clinton’s Two-Word Jab at Trump Over Lake Ontario Renaming Instantly Backfires

Her own reply-disabled post mocking Trump’s ‘Lake America’ order handed Republicans an easy punchline instead of landing a blow.

Hillary Clinton weighed in on President Trump’s executive order renaming Lake Ontario to ‘Lake America’ with a terse two-word post: “It’s Lake Ontario.” The message, which disabled replies, racked up more than 3 million views within hours — but conservative commentators say it landed with a thud. Radio host Vince Coglianese summed up the reaction, saying Clinton was “shooting blanks,” while the RNC fired back with its own two words: “It’s President Donald J. Trump.”

Why It Matters to You: Clinton’s post reopened old wounds from her 2016 loss instead of scoring points on the renaming itself, with critics like Sen. Marsha Blackburn reminding her “you’ll never be President.” It’s a reminder that even a former Secretary of State and presidential nominee can’t escape her own political history the moment she steps back into the arena.

4: Karen Bass Refuses to Testify Before Congress on $1 Billion in Missing LA Homelessness Funds

The Los Angeles mayor says she’s simply unavailable for the September 15 hearing — even as a former homelessness official signed a multimillion-dollar contract with her own husband’s employer.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is refusing to appear before the House Oversight Committee’s DOGE subcommittee, which is investigating what happened to more than $1 billion in federal homelessness funds routed through the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority since 2021. Subcommittee Chairman Rep. Tim Burchett says “many nonprofits to which those funds have been allocated are not using them for their intended purpose,” pointing to a $2.1 million contract a former LAHSA CEO signed with her own husband’s employer. Bass’s attorney offered no real explanation, telling the committee only that “unfortunately the mayor is not available on that date.”

Why It Matters to You: Los Angeles has poured over a billion taxpayer dollars into homelessness programs since 2021, yet the city’s homeless population climbed another 3.4% this year to roughly 45,000 people. When the mayor overseeing that money won’t answer basic questions from Congress about where it went, taxpayers are left wondering who’s actually being held accountable. Read more →

5: Fetterman’s Own Party Turns on Him After Bombshell Report Exposes Skipped Hearings and Canceled Veterans Meeting

A Wall Street Journal investigation found the Pennsylvania senator gamed his own attendance records, and even fellow Democrats are calling it a disgrace.

A Wall Street Journal investigation found Senator John Fetterman skipped 11 of 12 full committee hearings during one stretch while staff quietly ensured clerks marked him “present” for even a fleeting appearance. When Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia asked to discuss Medicaid cuts, Fetterman reportedly asked staff, “Why do I have to keep having to meet with chop,” and he canceled a meeting with three paralyzed veterans, later admitting, “Prior to the meeting I was at home throwing up.” Fellow Pennsylvania Democrat Brendan Boyle didn’t hold back: “John Fetterman is a disgrace…Our state deserves better.”

Why It Matters to You: This isn’t a partisan hit job — it’s Fetterman’s own party calling for accountability, with Rep. Conor Lamb telling him bluntly to quit if he can’t do the job. Pennsylvanians pay Fetterman’s salary to represent them in Washington, and this report raises real questions about whether that’s happening. Read more →
