The incident on Monday morning comes less than a week after a heavily armed illegal alien from Venezuela was arrested down the street from the White House with an AR-15-style rifle, a MAC-10, a Glock 43X, and ammunition. Federal agents said the illegal alien told them he “heard voices in his head telling him to kill President Trump.”

Saudi East-West Pipeline Again Hit By Drone, But Stays Operational

Update(1252ET): Saudi Arabia’s East-West pipeline has been struck by in a drone attack once again. Saudi Energy Ministry authorities confirmed the attack Monday in the Madinah region, likley as a result of a Houthi attack out of Yemen. However, the pipeline’s operations were not taken offline. According to Saudi media sources:An official source at the Ministry of Energy stated that the East-West Pipeline in the Madinah region was targeted on Monday, November 9, resulting in a minor fire. Emergency response teams successfully brought the fire under control without any injuries or fatalities, while the pipeline’s operations remained unaffected.The source explained that emergency response teams, along with specialized technical teams, immediately launched operations following the attack and took all necessary measures to secure the site and ensure its safety in accordance with approved safety procedures and emergency response plans.The official statement said: “Emergency teams extinguished the fires resulting from the strike without any injuries, death, or disruption to operations…”* * *A drone attack on the sprawling Khor Mor gasfield in the Kurdish region of northern Iraq has resulted in a large fire, suspending production at the site, while plunging much of semi-autonomous Iraqi Kurdistan into darkness.Huge amounts of smoke and flames have been seen rising from the vicinity of the gasfield in the Sulaimaniyah governorate. Regional reports Sunday night indicated over 70% of the region’s power generation has been knocked offline.Khor More is the region’s largest natural gas field, which is a major source of fuel for local power stations. The whole region essentially runs off of one gas field.

Source: Kurdistan Regional Government

Omid Ahmed, spokesperson for the Kurdistan Regional Government’s Ministry of Electricity, was cited in Al Jazeera as saying the attack “suspended gas supply to power plants in the cities of Erbil, Sulaimaniyah, Bazian, Chamchamal and Duhok.”The explosive-laden drone had an uknown origin. No group or nation-state has claimed responsibility as yet.US Presidential Envoy to Iraq and Syria Tom Barrack has described the strike as an attack on the Iraqi people and expressed support to uncover and hunt down the attackers”We condemn the attack on Khor Mor, which was an attack on the Iraqi people. We support Prime Minister Zaidi and the Kurdistan Regional Government in finding those responsible and holding them to account,” Barrack wrote on X.According to some of the emerging investigative details:Kurdistan24 correspondent Harem Jaff reported that the attack struck the liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) production unit in the facility’s “Old Field” section, causing substantial material damage. An emergency alarm sounded before the impact, allowing workers to take shelter. No casualties were reported among employees or security personnel.Several Iraqi security sources have suggested that the drone approached from the direction of Khurmatu, southwest of the field. A military intelligence officer, field guards and personnel at a Khurmatu checkpoint described hearing an aircraft in that direction.While it is anything but clear that it was Iran, the IRGC has in the recent past been known to launch attacks on Kurdish opposition groups with headquarters in northern Iraq.ڤیدیۆ.. دیمەنی هێرشەکەی سەر کێڵگەی کۆرمۆر لە چەمچەماڵی پارێزگای سلێمانی pic.twitter.com/kz7PGL8JZb— Rudaw (@Rudawkurdish) November 8, 2026
It could be connected with the ongoing Iran and Yemen conflcits, but there’s also the possibility of Iran-affiliated Iraq paramilitary units, or else possibly remnant ISIS cells. The United States has recently wound down its ‘counter-ISIL’ mission and has pulled remaining troops from Iraq this year.The whole region remains on edge, awaiting either a possible US-Iran peace deal, or else a return to major fighting which would put Gulf region oil and gas fields in Iran’s retaliatory crosshairs.

Blue Wave, Same Reactors: Nuclear Is The One Energy Source Washington Still Agrees On

Nuclear stocks spent the three days after the midterms trading like Democrats had campaigned on shutting down reactors:Oklo closed on Election Day at $23.49By Thursday it had hit a fresh 52-week low and closed at $19.20On Friday it ripped almost 23% and finished at $23.55, six cents above where it startedNuclear stocks finally soaring: attention once again turning to viable, baseload power for data centers.— zerohedge (@zerohedge) November 6, 2026It’s been three days of nuclear-grade high-beta price action, with most of the nuclear group looking the same as Oklo.Wrong trade, wrong targetWednesday was supposed to be easy. Democrats took the House and Senate, the election hedges came off, and the Dow jumped over 1,500 points.Reactor names rallied with everything else early, then rolled over. Oklo, NuScale (SMR), and Nano Nuclear (NNE) each closed down 4% to 6%, and Constellation (CEG) lost almost 7%, as traders dumped anything tied to AI power demand.On Thursday, stocks tied to the AI data center buildout cratered, knocking 5.5% off the Nasdaq, and tech hedge funds wiped out their entire 2026 gain.Oklo fell another 13% and NuScale 15%.On Friday, Oklo’s earnings and a blowout jobs report flipped the tape again. Centrus (LEU) jumped 17%, NuScale 16%, and Nano 15%.What spooked the market was data centers, not reactors. As we wrote last week, Democrats spent the year demanding data center moratoriums, and Goldman estimates the states most likely to restrict them hold about 45% of planned U.S. capacity.Thinking a dead data center means a dead nuclear renaissance implies that a history lesson is needed.The least partisan energy source in AmericaThe polling data alone could shut down the AI bubble concerns.In Gallup’s latest energy survey, 46% of Americans said the U.S. should put more emphasis on nuclear, the highest Gallup has ever recorded. Nuclear was also the only one of six sources to gain support since 2021, while solar and wind slipped.More important for a divided government: “The current 10-point partisan gap in views of nuclear power is the narrowest of any energy source in the survey,” Gallup wrote. The gap on solar is 49 points. On wind, it’s 59.A year earlier, 61% of Americans told Gallup they favor nuclear, one point shy of the 2010 record. Pew found support for more nuclear plants climbed to 59% from 43% in 2020, up 16 points among Republicans and 15 among Democrats.Democrats wrote half the playbookSome people clearly forget who signed up the U.S. for the nuclear renaissance in the first place…It was Biden, not Trump, who put the U.S. behind the COP28 pledge to triple global nuclear capacity by 2050. Even the renewable energy poster boy, John Kerry, said at the time, “You can’t get to net zero 2050 without some nuclear.”The ADVANCE Act, which pushed the NRC to speed up licensing and cut fees for advanced reactors, was introduced by Democrats Tom Carper and Sheldon Whitehouse with Republican Shelley Moore Capito. It passed the House 393-13 and the Senate 88-2, and Biden signed it in July 2024.Opposition in the Senate came from longtime anti-nukes Sanders and Markey, but in the House, 12 of the 13 No’s were from Republicans.The enrichment money comes from the same timeframe. Biden signed the ban on Russian uranium imports in May 2024, unlocking billions of dollars Congress had set aside for domestic enrichment.Biden’s DOE picked the companies eligible to compete for it, and Trump’s DOE handed it out.$2.7 billion went out in January of this year, $900 million each to Centrus, General Matter and Orano. Centrus CEO Amir Vexler thanked “Republicans and Democrats in Congress who came together to provide this urgently needed funding.”And in September, the House Energy and Commerce Committee advanced six nuclear bills covering enrichment, fuel recycling, licensing hearings and NRC pay, by votes of 41-0 to 44-0.Not a single Democrat voted No.Where Democrats will actually pushLet’s not pretend though that a Democratic Congress is going to rubber stamp a thousand SMRs into existence across the US.When we looked at what a Democratic House would go after, Capital Alpha flagged the administration’s plan to license reactors through DOE and the Pentagon. Pumping the brakes on that bridge program could lead to headaches in the microreactor space.The House Energy & Commerce Committee could potentially look to push for increased NRC independence, out of concern that the White House is possibly pushing the NRC to go faster than they are able to do so safely.At the same time, Capital Alpha also noted that “surging electricity demand is shifting Democrats toward stronger support for increasing nuclear capacity.”Investors still haven’t caught onThe market is pricing nuclear as a leveraged bet on AI capex rather than as a policy both parties own. We’ve already flagged the disconnect here, last time noting that “the customers have never been bigger, and the shareholders have never been more nervous.”The push for nuclear energy showed up before anybody cared about the potential electricity demand from data centers that might never even get built, long secured by ambitions to meet climate goals and national energy security objectives.None of that changes just because the jerseys have swapped over in Congress.

Last week’s pummeling on Election Night has a cohort of Senate Republicans wanting to take stock as lawmakers return to Washington, D.C.The Senate GOP is slated to hold its leadership elections Tuesday morning, where Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., is expected to seek another term as top Republican.But a small group led by Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., wants to delay the leadership elections to debrief after last week’s stunning losses and chart a path forward heading into the minority. Senate Democrats flipped the chamber by clinching 54 seats, and that number could grow depending on the outcomes in Mississippi and Alaska.THE HITCHHIKER’S GUIDE TO WHAT HAPPENS NEXT ON CAPITOL HILLJohnson, in a letter obtained by Fox News Digital to Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., the conference chair for the Senate GOP, argued the election should be delayed “until we all have a chance to hear from leadership candidates as to what type of collaborative conference governing model we should adopt and what our strategy will be to counter the emboldened Democrats.””Tuesday’s result was a stunning defeat, and there are multiple reasons for it,” Johnson wrote. “We need to have serious discussions within our conference as to what we can do to improve the outcome in 2028.””Holding leadership elections without engaging in a robust discussion and evaluation of how those running for leadership intend to lead would be political malpractice,” he continued. “It is certainly not the way leadership elections should be conducted in the world’s greatest deliberative body.”GOP EYES SENATE COMEBACK AFTER DEMOCRATIC BLOODBATH, BUT ANOTHER POLITICAL NIGHTMARE COULD AWAITThe Senate GOP’s rules do allow for the consideration of such a delay, as long as Johnson can get five signatures on his letter, and he did, securing Sens. Rick Scott, R-Fla., John Kennedy, R-La., Ted Budd, R-N.C., and Mike Lee, R-Utah, as his base of support.”We first need to digest what happened last week and make plans to move forward,” Lee said on X. “Turning to leadership elections Tuesday morning would put the cart before the horse.”Others who didn’t sign onto the letter, like Sens. David McCormick, R-Pa., and Jim Banks, R-Ind., similarly want to take a beat before casting their votes for the leadership structure.”Our conference needs to sit down and have a frank discussion about where we fell short, what we stand for, and what we’re going to do for the working families who sent us here,” Banks said in a statement.TREY GOWDY: THE MIDTERMS WERE A PAINFUL LESSON THAT REPUBLICANS CAN’T SKIP LEARNINGBut Republican leadership had already planned for a meeting heading into the elections, and part of Thune’s popularity among Republicans is his willingness to take feedback from lawmakers rather than “rule with an iron fist,” a GOP aide told Fox News Digital.Whether trying to slow down leadership elections turns into a shake-up in the Senate GOP’s power structure remains in the air, even with conservative voices outside the Senate calling for Thune to step aside.So far, Thune is expected to run unopposed for another term and still remains popular among the conference. Possible challengers, like Scott, have already said they wouldn’t mount a bid against him.”I don’t want to run again. I’ve run twice,” Scott said on Fox News’ “Saturday in America.”When pressed if he would support Thune, however, Scott said, “We’ll see what happens.””We’ll see who else is going to run,” he said. “I don’t know if somebody else is going to run.”

Men who use cannabis occasionally may feel stronger effects from the drug than women with similar use habits, new research suggests.The UCLA Health study, published in the journal Neuropsychopharmacology, included 44 healthy adults between the ages of 21 and 55, evenly split between men and women. Researchers divided participants based on whether they used cannabis frequently or occasionally.Each participant took part in three separate sessions: smoking cannabis with no THC, a lower amount of THC or a higher amount. They did not know which one they were receiving at the time.MARIJUANA USERS MAY FACE HIDDEN DRIVING DANGER THAT STANDARD TESTS CAN MISSAmong those who used cannabis occasionally, men reported feeling more high, sedated and impaired than women with similar use habits, according to the study.The men also reported more unpleasant effects, including anxiety, and their heart rate rose significantly after using active cannabis.Blood THC levels alone did not appear to explain the difference.Men and women who used cannabis occasionally had similar peak THC levels, even though the men reported stronger effects, researchers found.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTERThe pattern was different among people who used cannabis more often. Men and women in the frequent-use group generally responded similarly to active cannabis.Frequent users were also more likely than occasional users to say they liked the effects, wanted to use cannabis again and chose to take more during the study, regardless of gender.The findings challenge some previous research suggesting women may be more sensitive to the effects of cannabis.”Much of what we thought we knew about sex differences in cannabis effects came from animal research and from human studies that pooled data from different trials,” Dr. Ziva Cooper, the study’s principal investigator and director of the UCLA Center for Cannabis and Cannabinoids, said in a press release.CLICK HERE FOR MORE LIFESTYLE STORIES”When we designed a study to look at sex and frequency of use at the same time, and controlled for hormones, the picture changed,” she added.The researchers controlled for menstrual cycle timing among the women in the study, who were not using hormonal birth control.The findings suggest that a person’s cannabis habits may be important when considering how men and women respond to the drug.”Sex and cannabis use history can both shape how someone experiences the effects of cannabis,” lead author Dr. Stephanie Lake, a researcher at the UCLA Center for Cannabis and Cannabinoids, said in the release.TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ”Studying both together is key to understanding who is most at risk of higher-risk, unpleasant or beneficial experiences from cannabis.”There were several limitations to the findings, the researchers acknowledged.The study was small, with just 44 participants, and several of the findings involving occasional male users came from exploratory analyses, meaning they need to be confirmed in larger studies.The cannabis used in the experiment contained 4% or 10% THC, which researchers noted is weaker than many cannabis products sold today, where THC levels are commonly 20% or higher.CLICK HERE FOR MORE HEALTH STORIESResearchers said larger studies are needed to better understand whether men and women develop tolerance to cannabis differently and how those differences could affect the risk of cannabis use disorder.Fox News Digital reached out to the researchers for comment.

It’s official, the College Football Playoff is expanding to 24 teams.After just three years with twelve teams, the CFP committee and ESPN have agreed to a new deal that will see an increase to the number of teams allowed into the postseason tournament.The move will also signal the end of conference championship games for a majority of the leagues around the sport, with ESPN having to pay for these games to go away to make room for the expanded playoff.COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF EXPANDING TO 24 TEAMS IN 2027, WITH MORE GAMES COMING TO CAMPUSES ACROSS THE COUNTRYThe five-year deal is worth nearly $1.7 billion, which was first reported by ESPN.There have been ongoing discussions between the network and the CFP over when the right time would be for a move. At first, there was a growing consensus that a move to 16 teams could be in the works for a number of years before making the full transition to 24 teams.COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF EXPANDING AGAIN, BUT THE MONEY BEHIND IT IS NOT WHAT SOME WOULD CALL A ‘WIN’But, money talks, and after the network said they would take care of the costs that come with the elimination of conference title games for the ACC, Big 12, Big Ten and SEC, the decision was made to move forward with an additional 24 teams starting in 2027.”The Southeastern Conference announced today that the 2026 SEC Football Championship Game will be the final edition of the event,” the SEC said in a statement. “The decision coincides with the College Football Playoff’s expansion to a 24-team format.”The 2026 SEC Football Championship Game, to be played on December 5 in Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium, will be the 35th edition of the game that began in 1992.”While the Power-4 conferences have released statements about their title games, the Group of Six conferences are still deciding.No, this is not a popular move for fans of the sport, with former Alabama head coach Nick Saban recently making some strong comments against the idea of having that many teams competing for a national championship on a yearly basis.NICK SABAN SPEAKS TRUTH ON CFP EXPANSION: ‘THERE’S NOT 24 TEAMS’ THAT CAN WIN A NATIONAL TITLE, BUT MONEY WINS”Too many. There’s not 24 teams in the country that can win a National Championship,” Nick Saban told the Kelce brothers on the New Heights podcast. “So, what is the reason to actually do it? It’s about the money. What you’re giving up, which I hate to see, the SEC Championship Game, playing in the SEC Championship was a big thing for our players, it was a big thing to our fans. It was a tradition and it was a great venue.”I mean, there’s only two teams who can play in a National Championship, but more teams can play in those kind of championship games. There’s a lot of pride in winning the conference championship.”It was only a matter of time before the postseason would be expanded again. And to think just 10 months CFP leaders were discussing a 4-team increase.Following the national championship game to conclude the 2026 season in Las Vegas, there will be a new era in the sport that seems to just love changing things on a consistent basis.CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGENo, there was no need for the quick-trigger to help change the sport of college football once again, but it always feels as though money wins in these situations.Here are the key bullet points to the new expansion.Sure, there will be plenty of folks that argue conference title games have lost their luster. To that point, I would say look at the chaotic 2026 season and ramifications that are being seen with leagues across the country who are depending on a conference title game to secure their spot in the postseason, like the ACC and Big 12.THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW!Yes, the money is needed across athletic departments that are struggling to stay afloat in this new era of NIL and revenue-sharing.But, just making the 24-team playoff is not going to bring job security to coaches across the country moving forward. You can’t hang a banner for being the 23rd ranked team in the sport, and you darn sure can’t preach success to your donors and fans.We all knew this was coming at some point. And, there is no guarantees that it will stop with 24 teams.Do you honestly think that the same group of people who just agreed to a massive television contract with ESPN are not already thinking about expanding the playoff to 32 teams in 2032 or 36 teams in 2037?Universities across the country got what they wanted at the expense of college football logic, with the almighty dollar winning at the end of the day.

CNN’s Jake Tapper and Stephen Miller, who is now President Donald Trump’s new chief of staff
With President Donald Trump appointing Stephen Miller as his new chief of staff, some conservative media members are celebrating his new job by highlighting a CNN interview in which Miller smacked down network anchor Jake Tapper on the issue of immigrants imported into America.
“Want to see a murder on live TV?” asked Benny Johnson of “The Benny Show.”
“I give you New White House Chief of Staff Stephen Miller vs. Jake Tapper on CNN. Tapper said we need illegals here to pick our crops. Then, Fatality.”
During the televised clash, which took place in January 2025, Tapper focused on illegal aliens who work in the U.S. agriculture industry.
“Only 1% of alien workers in the entire country work in agriculture,” Miller explained. “The top destination for illegal aliens are large cities like New York, like Los Angeles.”
“None of those illegal aliens are doing farm work.”
Tapper claimed Miller was trying to change the subject.
“The illegal aliens that Joe Biden brought into our country are not, full stop, doing farm work. They are not,” Miller fired back. “The illegal aliens he brought in are from Venezuela, from Haiti, from Nicaragua, they are not doing farm work. They are in our cities collecting welfare.
“As for the farmers, there is a guest worker program that President Trump supports. Over time as well, you will transition into automation so we’ll never have to have this conversation ever again.”
As Tapper fiddled with his papers and smirked, Miller continued: “There’s no universe in which this nation is going to allow the previous president to flood our nation with millions and millions of illegal aliens who just get to stay here. And we are especially not going to allow a subset of those illegal aliens to rape and murder our citizens.
“So we are going to unapologetically enforce our immigration laws, and as I’m sure you will celebrate, we are going to unleash the power and might of the U.S. government to eradicate the presence of transnational threats on our soil.”

“Pure fire,” said Libs of TikTok on Sunday. “Inject this straight into my veins.”
Other commented:
“This is so disrespectful. Americans built this country; we can pick our own fruits, CNN can kiss my a$$.”
“The scowled look on the reporter’s face says it all. Lame Stream Media is nothing less than propaganda for the left.”
“That was awesome to watch. Tapper shuffling his papers in an agitated manner while Miller destroyed his narrative.”
“Never seen a single video where Stephen Miller lost an argument … not once.”
“The most racist thing I’ve experienced in my life is the constant assertion from liberals that all Hispanic people are slave-like fieldworkers and maids.”
“I wish I was 1/4 sharp as Miller.”

Miller, who was Trump’s deputy chief of staff for policy until last week, has been seen as the architect of the president’s hard-line immigration stance.
As WorldNetDaily reported, Trump told “60 Minutes” Sunday night he now believes his crackdown on illegal aliens “might be too tough.”

If President Trump softens on immigration enforcement, it will be a disaster:
60 Minutes: “So you think your deportation policy went too far?
President Trump: “I think it was too tough.”
60 Minutes: “It was too tough?”
President Trump “I think it might be too tough, yeah.” https://t.co/L44SDmrS1T

Cold Blast Puts Mid-Atlantic, Northeast On Watch For Season’s First Snowstorm

We’ve already outlined how crowded bearish positioning among hedge funds in US natural gas futures could leave the market vulnerable to a short squeeze next week, as forecasts point to a cold blast across the eastern half of the Lower 48. With cold air likely to be in place, meteorologists are watching to see whether moisture arrives at the same time, potentially bringing parts of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast their first accumulating snowfall of the season”Yes, there is a chance for a low-pressure system to bring mixed precipitation to the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast by next weekend. But, there remains a lot of uncertainty,” the National Weather Service’s Weather Prediction Center wrote on XFOX Weather says a low-pressure system is expected to develop over the Ohio Valley late next week and could move toward the Mid-Atlantic by Friday. It remains too early for certainty in the model guidance, but it appears moisture will mix with chilly Canadian air that could bring high temperatures in the 30s and 40s Fahrenheit across the Northeast, Great Lakes, and Ohio Valley, with overnight lows in the 20sA building ridge of high pressure across the western US will favor milder temperatures and generally dry conditions across much of the Midwest next week!

Secret Service officials arrested two people outside the White House in separate incidents on Monday near Lafayette Square Park.Video from the park circulating on social media showed a vehicle that appeared to run into a barrier, with the engine emitting smoke. “Just before 10:00 a.m., Secret Service Police and National Guard responded to the north side of Lafayette Park at 16th Street and H Street, NW, where a vehicle crashed onto the sidewalk. The driver was combative with law enforcement, but was quickly placed under arrest,” a Secret Service spokesperson said in a statement.”MPD’s Explosive Ordinance Disposal team has been called to sweep the vehicle as a precaution. Subsequently, roads around Lafayette Park have been closed,” the statement continued.”Around the same time, a second individual jumped a barricade near the northwest corner of Lafayette Park. That individual was also quickly placed under arrest,” it added.The Secret Service briefly moved reporters and the press inside the White House briefing room after the incident, but they have since been released.Authorities say both incidents are currently under investigation.This is a developing story.
