🇮🇹🇪🇸 Italy is extending its suspension of BORDER-FREE travel with Spain for another week! Italy first suspended normal Schengen arrangements with Spain on July 31 after a massive migrant invasion into Ceuta. Rome has repeatedly extended the restrictions, while Spain retaliated with its own suspension covering Italy, now set to last until October 22. Spanish officials previously called Italy's move “unjust” and “discriminatory.” Now the two countries' interior ministers are looking for another solution as travel restrictions between two major EU nations continue.

🇫🇷 France's growing population of SECOND-GENERATION voters could become a major force in the country's political future... A new poll puts the left-wing presidential candidate, Mélenchon, at a staggering 49% among 18-to-24-year-olds, compared with 28% for Marine Le Pen. France has a substantial population of young people with immigrant backgrounds, including second-generation French citizens. Nationally, the picture flips: Le Pen leads with 35+%. France's demographic and generational divides are becoming increasingly important fault lines in the battle for the presidency. Source: Le Parisien / Writer: Samuel

🚨🇺🇦🇪🇺🇷🇺 Zelensky puts a figure on war with Russia: "The war will cost 155 billion euros next year. And we need at least 70 billion euros more from you: for defense, for weapons, and for our resilience. This is a realistic amount. And I ask you to find this support. It will help us hold Russia back. There are some very simple facts. We stop most Russian assaults on the front line thanks to drones. We cut Russian supply lines with these technologies. And our drones are helping to weaken Russia’s economy. Right now, we could produce 2-3x more drones, depending on the type. But we simply don’t have enough money for that. It’s true. Just imagine if we could put 2-3x times more pressure on Russia than we do today." Writer: Michael t.co/W1Qqr8XuIT

🇮🇱🇺🇸 Check out Israel’s new homegrown hypersonic missile intercept system. Does this mean the U.S. can keep the rest of the Patriots? I hear they’re running pretty low after using most of their stockpiles to defend countries other than America. Writer: Jamie t.co/ANW0fp8O73

🇺🇦🇪🇺🇺🇸 Zelensky, speaking in Brussels this AM: "I am grateful to all of you who are trying to keep Europe and the United States together. There are so many people with good hearts in America who sincerely want evil to lose and Ukraine to stand strong. These are the very hearts that helped Europe defend its freedom, and that fought on D-Day, won the Cold War, and want what is best for Europe. Hearts that want to be allies, not to divide or humiliate Europe. I believe most Americans still feel this way. And at the end of the day, the American people will have their say. Putin will listen to America if America really turns up the heat on him and makes one thing clear: either he chooses peace, or he gets no more money for his war." Writer: Michael t.co/pVNnAlBHhr

🚨🇺🇦🇪🇺 Zelensky, speaking at the EU Summit in Belgium: "If there's no energy ceasefire, give us anti-ballistic missiles so that I can protect my energy facilities. Don't give us too many. Give us enough for the period you will need." That's a pretty understandable ask... If the ceasefire Trump announced isn't happening, at least let us protect ourselves. WTF was Trump thinking with that by the way?? Writer: Michael t.co/1uzc0dTEfN

🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 PM Andy Burnham is urging Scotland’s First Minister to shift power further downward to cities and regions instead of concentrating it in Edinburgh. He contends that Holyrood ranks among Europe’s most centralized devolved administrations and that internal inequalities across the UK call for this next step in devolution. The appeal lands as the SNP continues to press for another independence referendum. Alberta, Scotland… everyone is trying to succeed from their countries now! Who’s next, TEXAS?

🇺🇸🇮🇱 Jewish actor Wallace Shawn on Israel: “You can't be more evil than what they're doing. [The Israelis] in some ways are worse than the Nazis, Hitler had the decency to try to hide what they were doing, it was a secret. The Israelis are almost proud of it and don't keep it secret. It's diabolically evil.” Writer: Samuel (the clip is from 2025) t.co/QHSTH99z2Q

🇮🇱 Netanyahu says Jews have the non-negotiable right to the lands of Israel: “The Jewish people are not foreign occupiers in the land of our forefathers. Our history is not a colonial enterprise. Our land is not stolen land. This is our homeland. It’s called Judea; that’s where Jews come from, and we’ve been attached to it for thousands of years. We’re not the Dutch in Indonesia. We’re not the Belgians in Congo. We’re Jews in Judea.” Alright, Native Americans… this is your time to shine. Take back what the colonizers took from you! it’s the right thing… Bibi says so. 😂 Writer: Jamie t.co/4diUFxEoCe

Akrami-Nia: "If the U.S. leaves the region, the Hormuz Strait will reopen and collective security will be established with the participation of the region's countries... And the global economy will improve. If it doesn't leave, we'll expel it." The next few weeks, leading into the Israeli election (Oct 27), followed by the U.S. midterms (Nov 3) could decide everything... What will Trump, Netanyahu, and Iran do?

🇪🇺🇷🇺🇺🇸 EU Foreign Affairs Chief Kaja Kallas: “We are trying to convince our American partners that if we want to end this war, then we have to squeeze the aggressor.” If by “squeezing” she means MORE SANCTIONS, good luck! Sanctions have had little to no effect! If by “squeezing” she means MILITARY ACTION, please give some sound reasoning for why the United States should get involved. Writer: Jamie t.co/TYp33bOewk

🇺🇸🇹🇭 IMF chief Kristalina Georgieva warns that AI's risks could outweigh its potential benefits... That is, unless governments and technology companies establish "proper safeguards." Speaking at the IMF and World Bank meetings in Bangkok, Georgieva warned the global economy could suffer, if massive AI investments fail to deliver the productivity gains investors expect. She compared AI development to Formula One racing without barriers to protect spectators. Anthropic co-founder Jack Clark agreed that voluntary commitments alone are insufficient, calling for common testing standards and independent oversight. Meanwhile, U.S. officials argued that the IMF is focusing too heavily on risks while underestimating AI's potential to transform economic growth. Source: Reuters / Writer: Mhedi

🇵🇱🇺🇸 Polish President Nawrocki says Trump taking credit for his victory doesn't bother him: "President Trump has the right to feel that his support was one element of a much bigger victory. It doesn't bother me." Make no mistake: Nawrocki has become one of Trump's MOST respected international allies.
