⌨

Overnight editors led with a federal judge extending the block on White House removal of CNN, Politico and MS NOW, and Vatican updates that Pope Leo spent a tranquil night after lung surgery with longer recovery expected.

By midday focus moved to Ukraine accusing SpaceX of restricting Starlink, disrupting communications and drones as Russian strikes cut power for 600,000 in Kyiv, with CBS reporting withheld US warnings and Musk deflecting responsibility to Trump and the military.

Domestically the final pre-midterm inflation report showed prices up 0.6% in September to 3.7% annually on surging gas, paired with a 3.6% Social Security COLA for 2027, while the Omar probe widened with seizure of her phone and subpoenas to relatives over immigration paperwork.
