🔮 Will Trump’s warmongering, vile racism, and brazen corruption be punished?
🔮 It is going to be all hands on deck for team Zeteo on election night: Mehdi and Prem will be live from Abdul El-Sayed HQ in Detroit, Michigan from 9pm ET on Substack and YouTube; Swin Suebsaeng will be on the ground covering the major races in Ohio (hello Vivek Ramasawmy!), and Andrew Perez will be reporting on whether it is finally game over for Susan Collins in Maine.
🔮 Whatever the outcome of Israel’s election, the result will be the same: more of the occupation, dispossession, and killing that Palestinians saw this week.
🔮 In recent weeks, the president’s Justice Department has ramped up its targeting of Donald Trump’s political enemies, despite long-standing precedent to avoid taking actions that could influence elections.
🔮 The Trump Admin Asked CISA to Hack Voting Machine ProPublica published a bombshell report detailing a request during the early months of the Trump administration for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, which is meant to protect election systems, to secretly acquire a voting machine, hack it, and give the findings not to the voting machine company – but to the White House. The shocking request, which made employees fear they were engaging in political interference, was rejected in part because Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency laid off the same agents who would have completed the operation, ProPublica reported.
🔮 The film will premiere in Chicago on Oct. 20.
🔮 Later, NPR reported that nearly $22 million in taxpayer dollars had been spent to air Trump’s ads, nearly $10 million of which was spent after Trump’s Oct. 5 Truth Social post where he said the government would no longer pay for the ads.
🔮 In just a few hours, Houston’s Cullen Performance Hall will be packed to the brim as Mehdi and Mo take the stage for a night of laughs, political and social commentary, and a Q&A session with the audience.

🔮 BUT there’s still a chance for you to stream the conversation LIVE, including an audience Q&A session with Mehdi and Mo. PLUS, tune in for a special one-on-one conversation with Mehdi and Texas Rep. Greg Casar, who will also be taking audience questions.
🔮 We’re now just 25 days away from the U.S. midterm elections, which will be a test for a democracy that has been undermined, battered, and beaten since Donald Trump retook the White House less than two years ago.
