TRUMP CONCEDES IMMIGRATION POLICY MAYBE ‘TOO TOUGH’
President Donald Trump defended his administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration but acknowledged that deporting illegal aliens with steady jobs and otherwise clean records may have been “too tough” and hurt Republicans in the midterm elections.
In an interview on CBS’ “60 Minutes” that aired Sunday night, Trump gave himself an “A+” for securing the southern border and praised his administration’s efforts to remove criminal migrants while suggesting that enforcement against otherwise law-abiding workers may have gone too far.
“I think it might be too tough, yeah,” Trump told Ross Douthat.
The remarks came days after Republicans suffered major losses in the midterm elections, losing control of Congress to Democrats and prompting questions about the GOP’s political strategy.

RUBIO: TRUMP’S WAR AGAINST IRAN NOT ‘NECESSARILY POPULAR’ BUT NECESSARY [ARTICLE]
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Sunday that President Donald Trump launched the war against Iran to safeguard the world from the Islamic Republic’s nuclear ambitions, even if it was not “necessarily popular.”
Rubio declined to comment directly on Republicans’ losses in Tuesday’s midterms, which gave Democrats control of Congress.
The Iran war and its economic consequences, including higher gasoline prices, emerged as major issues during the campaign.
Asked about Vice President JD Vance’s social media post last week that largely blamed the war for the Republican losses, Rubio told reporters that Trump “identified a very real threat” in Iran and worked to stop the country from pursuing a nuclear weapon.
“He addressed it even though oftentimes the right thing to do for the country — confronting difficult challenges for the security of our country — doing it isn’t necessarily popular, but necessary,” Rubio said in Florida before heading to a Group of 7 foreign ministers meeting in Paris.

BLUE WAVE ENSHRINES CHILD BUTCHERY IN STATE CONSTITUTIONS BY ASHLEY BATEMAN [ARTICLE]
Protections for girls sports passed in some states, but the majority of ballot initiatives favored extreme, undefined rights for the transgender industries.
Constitutional amendments and statutes overwhelmingly favored radically unfettered rights for abortion and transgender proponents on Tuesday’s ballot, as federal efforts fight increasingly hostile legal landscapes to protect women and children.
The Trump administration has taken significant strides to curb the abuse of gender dysphoric youth within the transgender industry through declarations, attempted bans on federal funding, accountability demands, executive orders, and the defense of parental rights. The Department of Justice has successfully forced the shutdown of several gender mutilation programs across the country.
But Tuesday’s midterm elections exposed unrelenting, and entrenched, leftist efforts to enshrine transgender ideology. Though protections for female athletes passed in some states, the majority of ballot initiatives favored extreme, undefined rights for the abortion and transgender industries. The majority of those measures passed, alongside the election of multiple trans-identifying individuals to legislative seats.

KRAKÓW POLICE SOURCE BLOWS HOLE IN TUSK GOVT’S ‘FAR-RIGHT’ SHOOTER NARRATIVE [ARTICLE]
The Polish government’s attempt to pin the Kraków mass shooting on the far right is rapidly collapsing, with a police source saying Michał Oksiński may instead have been ‘ultraleft-wing’. A separate investigation by Super Express also found no far-right organizational links, making the Tusk government appear to be exploiting the tragedy for obvious political reasons.
Kraków police source has said that the gunman behind Saturday’s mass shooting, which left nine people dead and more than a dozen injured, held far-left rather than far-right views, directly challenging Interior Minister Marcin Kierwiński’s claim, which has already spread through Western mainstream media and been amplified by liberal-progressive and left-wing MEPs, including Renew Europe leader Valérie Hayer.
Rzeczpospolita, one of Poland’s leading newspapers, broke the explosive story on Sunday, quoting a source within Kraków police who said officers had discovered material suggesting that the 24-year-old Michał Oksiński ‘may be ultraleft-wing’, including photographs of him posing with certain flags.
The source nevertheless cautioned against forcing a political explanation onto a disturbed individual: ‘He was simply eliminating people.’
Another major Polish outlet, Super Express, separately reported, citing several sources, that investigators had found no links between Oksiński and far-right parties or extremist organizations, including in his online activity. Prosecutor Piotr Sokół said investigators had no evidence of active political or extremist activity, while Prosecutor General Waldemar Żurek said no manifesto had been found.

NIGERIA CHRISTIAN REPORT: PLATEAU ATTACKS KILL AT LEAST NINE AS BEROM YOUTH LEADER ACCUSES ARMY OFFICER OF CALLING VICTIMS “ILLEGAL MINERS”
Armed attackers killed at least nine people in Barkin Ladi, Mangu and Riyom Local Government Areas (LGAs) of Plateau State between Oct. 29 and Nov. 3, 2026. Community leaders and the Berom Youth Moulders-Association (BYM) blamed armed, Islamist Fulani herders for several of the attacks.
The deadliest attack struck Sabon Angwa, near Bet and Zat in Barkin Ladi’s Rop District, where the BYM said Christians were killed inside their homes. At the burial, BYM president Dalyop Solomon Mwantiri said residents had overheard an army officer tell a superior that the victims were illegal miners.
The attackers stormed Sabon Angwa at about 8 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 29, and opened fire on residents. Resident Bulus Jok said the gunmen fired at anything they saw. Four people were killed in Sabon Angwa and one in Rakung.
Jok said an early warning alert had been sent to the authorities a day before the attack. The Plateau State Government had imposed a 6 p.m. curfew on Barkin Ladi, Bokkos and Mangu in September.
