Josh Duhamel urges voters to save ‘God’s country’ ahead of midterms
Josh Duhamel is encouraging Minnesotans to get out and vote in a new video he shared on Instagram.The actor took to social media to send out a “PSA to the great people of Minnesota,” rallying residents to pack the polls in what he dubbed “God’s country.””I just wanted to take a second to remind you that the midterms are coming up. This is such an important, such an important time. We have to get out there. We have to vote. Every single person,” he said. “Minnesota is my second favorite state in the whole country, right behind North Dakota, but I absolutely love it there. It is God’s country. It is worth saving. It is absolutely worth saving.”While he said he “would never tell you who to vote for,” he believes voting is one’s “job as an American citizen” and a “sacred duty.”JOSH DUHAMEL SAYS HIS HEART RATE DROPS 25% AT OFF-GRID MINNESOTA CABIN”And it is a blessing that we get to get out there and pick who makes decisions for us,” he added. “So please, everybody, let’s get 100 percent turnout. Everybody, please, vote in this year’s midterms. Go Viks! Woo!”In the caption, Duhamel encouraged his followers to “Bring a group to the voting booths on Nov 3” and to share the post “with everyone you know!!”Although the actor didn’t endorse any candidates, people in the comments section made their own assumptions as to what he meant when he said the state is “worth saving.””Worth saving means vote red. Good man @joshduhamel,” one fan wrote in the comments section. “Red red red all down the ballot,” another added, while a third wrote, “Vote RED!

‘Trust in our democracy’: Judge decides whether 20,000 ‘likely noncitizen’ ballots get counted
Summary
A district court judge in California has rejected DOJ’s request for a temporary restraining order to segregate 20,000 ballots from alleged “noncitizen” voters.
The state, Los Angeles County, and city of Los Angeles argued the request was impossible to accomplish and potentially disenfranchising.
DOJ later announced it is appealing the decision.
U.S. District Judge David O. Carter denied the Justice Department’s request for a temporary restraining order against California on Wednesday evening, one day after a hearing in Los Angeles on a case involving tens of thousands of questionable ballots.
The legal fight began last week when the DOJ asked California to segregate an estimated 20,000 ballots belonging to people the government says are “likely” noncitizens. Carter, a Clinton appointee, delayed a ruling until Wednesday despite requests from attorneys on Tuesday, saying that the federal government’s request to “segregate and exclude over 20,000 ballots” violates “longstanding constitutional principles mandating that states have control over their elections.”
“If Plaintiff’s last-minute request for relief were granted, either party could create chaos for their own political purposes to disrupt the election process. Over 20,000 registered Californians would potentially lose the right that generations of Americans have fought to preserve,” Carter wrote. “The Government’s Application for Temporary Restraining Order is DENIED.”
“Eroded trust in our democracy is irreparable. Once a vote is segregated, lasting harm has occurred. If the Executive can discount votes and threaten an ongoing election due to unproven allegations, then our democracy is in danger,” Carter added. “This Court declines to be a party to such process.”
In Tuesday’s hearing, First Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli argued the government’s case while state, county and intervening lawyers pushed back, with midterm voting already underway ahead of the Nov. 3 election.
Essayli said the request was narrow: separate the ballots of roughly 20,000 people on the DOJ’s list so they can be reviewed before they are opened. Once a ballot is opened and detached from its identifying envelope, he argued, the vote becomes effectively untraceable.

Just last week, the DOJ announced that it had charged 28 foreign nationals in California from its compiled list of names for alleged election crimes. Essayli told Carter that the list of roughly 20,000 names came from the federal government cross-referencing a redacted version of California’s voter roll with federal databases, with assistance from USCIS.
The DOJ told the court on Tuesday it sought an expedited order because election officials were already processing returned ballots.
However, attorneys for the state and Los Angeles County called the federal government’s data collection unreliable, arguing that the DOJ’s proposed remedy was unworkable this late in the cycle.
Los Angeles County argued that more than 12,000 election workers are already aiding the election and that its software cannot be modified in time to flag the ballots. Any separation would therefore have to be done manually—an approach the county called impossible before Election Day or certification on Dec. 3.
State lawyers echoed the county, describing the request as “incredibly disruptive” and a “recipe for disenfranchisement.”
Additionally, a concern raised by intervenors, including NAACP lawyers, warned that the data-matching process could flag naturalized citizens and pointed to the 9th Circuit’s recent rejection of a similar emergency request.
Recess is over, and we’re back in court for the DOJ’s California Voter Citizenship Case.

During the hearing, Carter pressed attorneys on both sides whether there was precedent for segregating the ballots during an ongoing election, and described the proposed remedy as a “monumental” change. Carter, however, open to giving the DOJ time for further evidence and potential prosecutions past Election Day.
Along with Carter’s Wednesday decision, the Clinton-appointee notably decided on Tuesday’s hearing that he intends to appoint a special master to probe the DOJ’s process that led to the compiled list of 20,000 likely noncitizens.
Following the Wednesday evening decision, the DOJ has since appealed to the 9th circuit.
“The district court denied our emergency request to sequester ballots from 20,000 suspected noncitizens. Every day, more ballots are processed by election officials. This ongoing emergency disenfranchises American citizens through dilution,” Essayli wrote in a statement.
“The Solicitor General authorized an immediate appeal. We filed our Notice of Appeal and will immediately seek an emergency order from the Ninth Circuit,” Essayli added.

Fewer Americans are opening Uber Eats as DoorDash pulls ahead
Most people don’t think much about which delivery app they open. You pick the one with the lower fee, the faster driver, or the promo code that landed in your inbox.
That habit is exactly what makes delivery such a tough business. Loyalty lasts only as long as the next discount.
I’m clearly not alone in relying on Uber for both rides and meals. Uber Technologies (UBER) handled 3.9 billion trips in the second quarter, with gross bookings up 24% to $58 billion, according to its earnings release.
“Uber’s platform advantage continues to compound: record consumers and engagement, and profitable growth across our business,” said CEO Dara Khosrowshahi in the release.
However, a subtle shift has emerged in how Americans use the delivery side of that platform.
According to a Bank of America research report seen by TheStreet, Uber Eats is losing daily users in the U.S. while DoorDash (DASH) keeps adding them.
The note lands one week before Uber reports third-quarter results on Nov. 4, according to the bank.
Bank of America data shows US Uber Eats daily users fell 4% while DoorDash grew 8%.Bloomberg / Getty Images
The app data shows Uber Eats slipping in the U.S.
The numbers come from Sensor Tower data cited in the report. U.S. daily active users of the Uber Eats app averaged 2.8 million in the third quarter, down 4% from a year earlier.
DoorDash averaged 9.1 million U.S. daily users over the same stretch, up 8%. Globally, Uber Eats was flat at 11 million, while DoorDash grew 11% to 10 million.
More Food Delivery:
DoorDash, Uber Eats have a new rival, offering lower menu prices
Food Lion, Stop & Shop online ordering stays down for a 3rd day
DoorDash wants customers to stop using its app to order food
There is a caveat. Customers “can also order Delivery through the main Uber app,” the analysts noted, so the Eats app alone may understate demand.
The ride-hailing side looks steadier. Uber’s U.S. rider app averaged 4.8 million daily users, up 1%, while Lyft (LYFT) fell 5% to 2.7 million.
Here is how the third-quarter app data stacks up, according to Sensor Tower figures in the note:
Uber Eats, U.S.: 2.8 million daily users, down 4%
DoorDash, U.S.: 9.1 million daily users, up 8%
Uber rider app, U.S.: 4.8 million daily users, up 1%
Waymo One, U.S.: 148,000 daily users, up 65%
Uber driver app, U.S.: 1.9 million daily users, down 2%
Investors have noticed the pressure. Uber shares hit a 52-week low of $65.41 on Oct. 28 and are down about 31% over the past year, Investing.com reported.
Analyst Justin Post laid out the case in a note titled “3Q Preview: Expect in-line qtr and outlook, AV supply & competition in focus.”
“YTD multiple compression suggests negative sentiment into the print,” wrote Post. He added that Uber trades at about 10 times its 2027 enterprise value to EBITDA, “near its all-time low.”
DoorDash is getting bigger as its rival walks away
The competitive backdrop is shifting fast. DoorDash is in advanced talks to buy Instacart (CART) in a deal valued at about $17 billion, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Instacart’s market value was about $13 billion before the report. Press reports suggest Uber walked away from its own talks, the Bank of America analysts wrote.
Uber is placing different bets. It agreed this month to buy catering platform ezCater for $2.3 billion in cash, and it has also agreed to acquire Delivery Hero, the note said.
The two rivals are also fighting over the same partners. Costco signed delivery deals with both Uber Eats and DoorDash in September, with Uber Eats covering nearly 600 Costco locations in 47 states, the note said.
Drivers face their own squeeze. The national average for regular gas was $4.27 a gallon on Oct. 22, down from $4.41 on Oct. 1, according to AAA.
“The drop is fueled by the transition to winter-blend gasoline,” AAA said. Post still flagged elevated gas prices as a possible risk to driver supply and margins.
Given that backdrop, it’s easy to understand why the bank thinks the earnings call matters more than the quarter itself.
Bank of America says robotaxis will decide the next move
Post expects a quarter in line with Wall Street. He estimates gross bookings of $59.8 billion, up about 20% from $49.7 billion a year earlier, with adjusted EBITDA [earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization] of $2.94 billion.
For the fourth quarter, he expects guidance of $62.75 billion to $64.75 billion in bookings and adjusted earnings of 96 cents to $1 a share.
He trimmed his 2026 adjusted earnings estimate to $3.43 a share from $3.45, mostly because a stronger dollar shrinks Uber’s overseas sales.
Delivery may surprise to the upside, though.
Bank of America card data showed online restaurant spending up 10% in the third quarter. That’s an acceleration from the second quarter, the analysts wrote.
The bigger question is robotaxis. Waymo plans to grow its fleet from about 4,000 vehicles to 8,000 by year-end and 20,000 by the end of 2027, Semafor reported, according to the note.
“We believe an update on more visible US AV [autonomous vehicle] supply pipeline (NVIDIA deal a potential driver) is key for sentiment,” wrote Post.
Much will likely depend, however, on whether Uber’s partners can actually deliver the cars. Lucid alone has committed at least 35,000 vehicles, and Post wants updates on whether partners, “especially Lucid,” can meet those commitments.
In my analysis, there’s an irony in the math. Bank of America cut its estimates and kept its $101 price objective, yet the implied upside jumped to 53.5% from about 43% last month simply because the stock fell.
For Post, that gap is the opportunity. “We see room for multiple expansion with AV progress,” he wrote, reiterating a Buy rating.

Why You Should Always Ask for an Itemized Hospital Bill
On a recent podcast, we received a message from an independent medical provider explaining how their insurance reimbursements are drastically lower than what hospital-owned facilities receive.
What is happening across the country is a clash between two titans of the marketplace: massive hospital systems — many of which have built local monopolies or semi-monopolies — and giant health insurance companies fighting over reimbursement rates.
As they battle it out, you and I are the ones left holding the bag.
How the Hospital Squeeze Hits Your Wallet
First, large hospital networks hold immense negotiating leverage over insurers, which has been a primary driver of the relentless, year-after-year increases in our health insurance premiums and out-of-pocket costs.
Second, there is growing concern that patients are absorbing more charges because hospitals are constantly looking for new ways to bill insurers. There are even claims that hospital billing departments are deploying AI to run up charges — identifying one procedure and automatically tacking on fees for related services.
When the insurance company pushes back and refuses to cover these inflated fees, the hospital often turns around and attempts to balance-bill you for the difference.
Why You Must Demand an Itemized Bill
If you have been in the hospital for any length of time, you are likely facing a serious bill.
Hospitals usually send a summary statement that looks something like:
Total Charges: $X
Insurance Paid: $Y
Amount You Owe: $Z
Do not just pay that summary bill. You must request a complete, itemized bill with every individual charge, service, and medical billing code listed. Hospitals often resist handing this over, but you have the right to see it.
Once you receive that itemized bill:
Decode the line items: If you see a mysterious charge — say, $1,422 for a medical term or procedure you don’t recognize — look it up. Today, you can even paste confusing medical codes or descriptions into an AI tool to translate them into plain English.
Check for phantom charges: Over and over again, patients find charges for medications they never received, tests that were never performed, or duplicate line items.
Compare with your EOB: Line up your itemized bill against the Explanation of Benefits (EOB) from your insurance company. Often, an insurer denies a legitimate claim simply due to a coding error, leaving you with an improper bill.
(Note: If you are recovering from a major illness or procedure and do not have the energy to tackle this, enlist a trusted family member or friend to make the calls and review the statements on your behalf.)
Medical Debt and Your Credit
This isn’t just about a few extra dollars — big money is at stake.
Even after recent credit bureau rule changes removed many smaller medical debts, medical debt still makes up roughly half of all collection items appearing on credit reports. You do not want your credit score trashed, your phone ringing with collection calls, or a hospital taking legal action over charges you legitimately do not owe.
When To Bring in a Professional Advocate
If you are facing a massive, complex hospital bill and feel overwhelmed, consider hiring an independent medical billing advocate (patient advocate).
These are frequently former medical billing specialists and hospital back-office professionals who review charges for a living. They know how the system operates, how to spot billing errors, and how to negotiate directly with hospital financial departments.
Most advocates work for an hourly fee or a percentage of the money they save you — and on a significant bill, they can save you a fortune.
Final Thoughts
The healthcare billing system is deeply broken, but it is the system we have to navigate right now. Everyone wants a piece of your wallet; your job is to ensure that whatever comes out of your pocket is strictly what you legitimately owe.
When it comes to medical expenses, do not be passive. Ask for that itemized bill, scrutinize every charge, and protect your hard-earned money.

Major Fast-Food Chain Faces Wave Of Restaurant Closures As Franchise Giant Files For Bankruptcy
Wendy’s could see up to 60 more restaurants closed across the United States through mid-November as one of its largest franchise operators battles bankruptcy, according to USA Today.Meritage Hospitality Group, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on September 17, has already shuttered 33 restaurants since entering bankruptcy proceedings and could reportedly shut down dozens more by November 13.Meritage previously closed 60 underperforming locations before filing for bankruptcy. Reports differ on whether the 33 closures since the filing count toward the up-to-60 figure, so the total could reach roughly 120 or more.The restaurant company operated 314 Wendy’s restaurants across 15 states when it filed for bankruptcy.Meritage reported a $31.5 million net loss in 2025, followed by another $23.1 million loss during the first half of 2026, according to QSR Magazine.The franchisee blamed weak sales, aggressive discounting and what it described as less effective Wendy’s marketing under the chain’s previous leadership. The financial pressures have been compounded by stubbornly high beef prices, which the Trump administration has struggled to bring down despite aggressive efforts to boost imports.In February, President Donald Trump authorized an additional 80,000 metric tons of tariff-free beef imports from Argentina. Moreover, the White House in August allowed another 300,000 metric tons of foreign beef trimmings into the country at reduced tariff rates in hopes of lowering hamburger prices. However, the measures have delivered little relief so far. Ground beef prices have climbed over 22% since Trump returned to office.Meritage’s bankruptcy has also triggered a bitter financial dispute between the restaurant company and Wendy’s, with the fast-food chain claiming the operator owes approximately $147 million in royalties, fees and other contractual charges.The latest development has only made Wendy’s already difficult few years go from bad to worse. The burger chain has suffered over 300 net restaurant closures since 2024, including 245 during the first half of 2026, according to NRN.

Trump DOJ’s fight over 20K suspected noncitizen voters takes sharp turn as California ballots pour in
U.S. District Judge David O. Carter on Wednesday rejected the Justice Department’s emergency request to force California to set aside mail-in ballots associated with more than 20,000 registered voters whose citizenship the Trump administration has questioned, ruling that the last-minute intervention would disrupt an election already underway.The over 20,000 voters identified by Department of Justice officials as “likely aliens” were designated as such after Homeland Security Investigations and federal partners “used multiple data-enrichment and verification methods” to flag potential noncitizens on California’s voter rolls. California officials, however, disputed the list’s accuracy, citing a preliminary review that identified U.S.-born individuals and voters with no voting history among those flagged.Carter, a Clinton appointee, ruled that the Justice Department’s last-minute effort to intervene in California’s election violated constitutional and federal-law constraints, while questioning the reliability of the government’s evidence that the flagged voters were noncitizens.”The district court denied our emergency request to sequester ballots from 20,000 suspected noncitizens,” First Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital. “This ongoing emergency disenfranchises American citizens through dilution. The Solicitor General authorized an immediate appeal. We filed our Notice of Appeal and will immediately seek an emergency order from the Ninth Circuit.”NINTH CIRCUIT QUESTIONS TRUMP DOJ’S EMERGENCY REQUEST TO SET ASIDE 20,000 CALIFORNIA MAIL BALLOTSThe Trump administration has suffered a string of defeats in election-related cases in the lead-up to the midterm elections, raising questions whether the administration will be able to deliver on its promises of improved election integrity ahead of the 2028 presidential election. President Donald Trump and other administration officials have repeatedly raised concerns about widespread voter fraud in U.S. elections, though those claims have not been supported by evidence demonstrating fraud on such a broad scale.California election officials argued that complying with the Justice Department’s request would be virtually impossible because county election offices had already processed more than 500,000 ballots, separating them from identifying information and preventing officials from reliably linking those votes to individual voters.Carter warned that the requested intervention would “wreak havoc and disrupt the election that is already underway,” though he noted that federal authorities were free to pursue individual voting fraud cases.Experts were divided along ideological lines in the case.TRUMP SCORES SUPREME COURT WIN IN ELECTION INTEGRITY FIGHT AS STATES GAIN NEW VOTER ROLL TOOLHans von Spakovsky, an election expert at Advancing American Freedom, a Mike Pence-affiliated think tank, criticized California for refusing to comply with the DOJ’s request.”It tells you something very revealing and unfortunately badly revealing about California officials that they don’t even want to check,” von Spakovsky told The Center Square. “In California, for example, they have automatic voter registration. When you go in to get a driver’s license, they don’t ask you, ‘Would you also like to register to vote?’ The state of California just automatically registers you, and when you ask them, they say, ‘Well, it’s up to the individuals to tell us they’re not eligible to vote.’”BIDEN-APPOINTED JUDGE BLOCKS VOTER-FRAUD PROBES IN BATTLEGROUND STATES JUST DAYS BEFORE MIDTERMSRick Hasen, a University of California, Los Angeles, election-law professor, meanwhile, called the Justice Department’s request a “total overreach of federal power,” arguing that “the Constitution’s clear that states have the authority to run Congressional elections unless Congress passes a statute otherwise — and Congress didn’t do so here.”The California governor’s office did not respond to a request for comment when reached by Fox News Digital on Thursday.
Victor Reacts: Democrat Judge Gives Illegal Alien Probation After Shooting Man (VIDEO)

Turns out if you are an illegal alien, you can shoot a man in the face and just get 5 years of probation.
At least, that is what happened in this case.
The Gateway Pundit reported,
Immigration and Customs Enforcement has arrested Aldo David Herrera-Andino, a 22-year-old illegal alien from Honduras who was released into the United States under the Biden administration’s catch-and-release policies, after he pleaded guilty to shooting a Tennessee man in the face and leaving him fighting for his life.
ICE announced the arrest on Tuesday, stating that Herrera-Andino had been convicted of felony reckless aggravated assault in Davidson County and received just five years of probation.
“Herrera-Andino shot a man in the face, left him fighting for his life, and fled the scene,” ICE spokesperson Micah Bock told Breitbart News. “He later admitted to the shooting and pleaded guilty to felony aggravated assault.”
Herrera-Andino illegally crossed the border and was arrested by Border Patrol agents in March 2021 before being released into the country under Biden-era policies, according to ICE and reporting from Breitbart News.
How many more Democrat judges are going to allow these dangerous criminal illegal aliens to roam the streets?
