23.10.2026 ⇱ The Day Trump Ordered the Alaska Lawsuit
⌹

Eleven days before the midterms, the Justice Department preemptively sued to block certification of Alaska’s Senate race if Republican Dan Sullivan narrowly loses, citing ballot confusion over similarly named candidates; Trump said he personally ordered the suit, drawing charges of election interference.

Two former FBI officials were charged with lying to Congress about the Hunter Biden laptop probe, reviving claims of a cover-up.

Trump escalated attacks on Rep. Ilhan Omar over a filing questioning her legal name and alleged sham marriage, calling for resignation and expulsion; Omar dismissed him as a “creep” and insisted her name had always been Ilhan Omar.

Melania Trump announced a temporary localized ceasefire around Russian-occupied Oleshky for aid deliveries starting Oct. 29, as Zelenskyy said Starlink remained degraded.
