What do polls tell us about race for Pennsylvania?

With less than four weeks left to go until election day, the race for the White House is as close as ever.

Nationally, Kamala Harris remains a couple of percentage points ahead of Donald Trump – a lead she has had since she entered the race at the end of July.

But the US election is won and lost in the handful of states where both candidates stand a chance of winning – those known as the swing states.

Hurricane Milton updates: Florida told ‘it’s not over’ after overnight carnage that killed ‘multiple’ and left millions without power

Monster storm Hurricane Milton left a path of destruction across Florida overnight, leaving several people dead and 3million without power as it heads for Orlando and onward to the Atlantic.

The first casualties were reported even before Milton made landfall as a Category 3 storm around 8:30pm EST (1:30am BST), bringing ‘catastrophic’ flooding, 120mph winds and several twisters – some of which proved lethal.

After making landfall, Milton began rumbling east, ripping up everything in its path before ripping apart the roof of Tropicana Field, the home of the Tampa Bay Rays baseball team in St. Petersburg.

JÄGER: How Canada set fire to itself — a personal account

I was packing for a trip to Germany when the first reports of Hamas’ massacre of civilians began circulating online.

Hurricanes Haunt Harris’s Campaign in Final Stretch

A poorly handled hurricane can cripple a politician. Just ask George W. Bush.

As Americans in the Southeast continue to wade through the wreckage from Hurricane Helene, and Floridians brace for a potentially catastrophic Hurricane Milton, voters’ perceptions of the federal government’s disaster response have not yet solidified. But Republicans are doing their best to ensure that Kamala Harris, who as vice president has a limited role in disaster response, pays the political price for any failures on the part of the Biden administration.

In Colbert Appearance, Harris Tries To Backtrack Her Role In Every Crises Caused By The Biden-Harris Administration

The Danger of the Secularist Sensibility

The high cost of the modernist inability to take religion seriously.

Last week, Israel’s Minister of Defense, Benny Gantz, wrote an op-ed for the New York Times asking the question, “What were Hamas’s leaders hoping for, and what are Iran’s leaders seeking to achieve?” The answer began with a conversation that revealed the central problem with the West’s understanding of Islamic jihadism, one that still vitiates our foreign policy and plans for dealing with Muslim aggressors: our modernist inability to take religion seriously.

MI5 must rethink Islamic terrorism

“MI5 has one hell of a job on its hands.” That was the warning yesterday from the agency’s Director-General, Ken McCallum, in a speech which touched on everything from Russian espionage to Iranian assassination plots, and from the present competition with China to the violent echoes of last century’s conflict in Northern Ireland.

On counterterrorism, McCallum gave the “headline split” of “75% Islamist terrorism, 25% extreme Right-wing.” Despite delving into the shifting ideological configurations of the violence, McCallum underlined that the threat of most concern is still that posed by al-Qaeda and Islamic State.

Pentagon’s secret UFO data retrieval program ‘Immaculate Constellation’ revealed for first time in new whistleblower report

A secretive Pentagon UFO data retrieval program has been hidden from Congressional oversight since 2017, a new report claims.

Whistleblowers assert the program — codenamed ‘Immaculate Constellation’ — was established to ‘detect’ and ‘quarantine’ the military’s best UFO imagery, as well as its best videos, eyewitness testimonies and electronic sensor evidence.

This trove of high quality, multi-sensor UFO data is so tightly held that ‘talking about it will put you in the danger zone,’ according to a US official who confirmed the leak.
