28.10.2026 ⇢ The Day Trump Demanded Peltola Drop Out
⌨

Overnight counting in Israel replaced exit-poll deadlock with momentum for Netanyahu, with U.S. outlets noting his bloc nearing a majority and his claim of a Zionist mandate to form a right-wing government, a shift from the previous evening's rebuke narrative that Trump attributed to his endorsement.

With six days to the midterms, coverage pivoted home to Senate control, with Trump campaigning in Ohio and Obama in Georgia, a judge rejecting the Justice Department bid to segregate 20,000 California ballots, and the Federal Reserve holding rates. The Alaska race overtook the previews after reports that Peltola allies recruited a second Dan Sullivan as a spoiler, prompting denials, fraud accusations and a federal criminal inquiry.

A high-speed collision near Toledo, Spain rose through the day from 10 to at least 68 dead, while defeated Brazilian candidate Flávio Bolsonaro landed in Miami declaring himself the legitimate leader.
