CHICAGO, IL - Malka was home alone with her baby in the West Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago on Saturday morning when she heard gunshots ring out. The gunman, who shot Malka’s Orthodox Jewish neighbor as he walked to synagogue, returned to the scene 20 minutes later, shouting “Allahu Akbar” and shooting at police and paramedics.

In a video of the first shooting Malka shared with The Daily Wire, two gunshots are heard, followed by a voice screaming “Get off me! Leave me alone! Leave me alone! Get out of here! What is wrong with you?”

Malka, who requested that her last name be withheld for privacy, said she left her home to check on the 39-year-old victim, who was receiving first aid in another neighbor’s home.

“I was home alone with my baby and I saw the shooter running,” Malka said. “I eventually went outside to check on the person who was shot, because I thought it was safe, because the police and paramedics were there. People were walking their dogs, and it seemed like life was back to normal with the police being there.” Click here to read more.

 

LAS VEGAS, NV - Machines in Nevada County, California encountered a printing error last week, and officials are unaware of just how many of the 77,000 ballots were potentially compromised.

Nevada County elections office discovered something was wrong with the ballots on Oct. 21, according to CBS News. They became aware of the root of the problem the following day.

Election officials contacted the California Secretary of State’s office upon discovering their machines were not reading every ballot appropriately, according to CBS. The printing service said the issue was an overspray of the ink on certain bar codes.

“Some of our ballots, if you look really closely and use a magnifying glass, you will see that there is imperfections in the bar codes,” Nevada County Clerk Recorder Natalie Adona told the outlet. “We will use a report and say, ‘OK, which pages did not go through?’ We’ll pull those out and we’ll mark them as to be rescanned, and we will rescan them with a piece of paper where the bar code is very clear.” Click here to read more.

 

PORTLAND, OREGON - Hundreds of ballots were destroyed in separate fires at ballot drop boxes in Vancouver, Washington, and Portland, Oregon, with officials urging affected voters to request replacements as investigations continue into potential arson.

A ballot box at Fisher's Landing Transit Center in Vancouver, Washington, was spotted smoking early Monday morning. In photos obtained by ABC affiliate KATU, dense gray smoke can be seen pouring out of the dropoff ballot box near Southeast 162nd Avenue just after 6 am.

Several police units converged on the area and roped off the box as it continued to smoke. Around 6:30, the outlet reportedly captured first responders releasing several burning ballots to the ground where they continued to smolder and smoke even though the fires had been put out.

According to Clark County's elections auditor, the box held hundreds of ballots at the time, as the last collection had been at 8 a.m. Sunday. KATU reports only a few ballots were saved. The auditor urged anyone who dropped off a ballot at that location to contact the Election Auditor's Office immediately to request a new ballot. Click here to read more.

NEW YORK, NY - The mainstream media's dominance in narrative- and reality-shaping in presidential elections shattered in 2024.

  • The future of news and information is upon us. Welcome to the shards of glass election — and news era.

Why it matters: How and where Americans get informed has broken into scores of pieces — from young men on Joe Rogan's podcasts, to suburban women following Instagram influencers.

Both campaigns have targeted small, often little-appreciated shards to reach hyper-specific pockets of potential voters. The campaigns are doing this with unorthodox, sometimes lengthy media appearances and precision ad targeting.

  • Former President Trump reached way more potential male voters with his three-hour Rogan conversation (33 million views over the weekend) than he could have with a dozen or more appearances on Fox News, CNN and MSNBC combined. All three cable news networks skew very old in viewership, with median ages ranging from 67 to 70.

  • Vice President Kamala Harris reached more young women on Alex Cooper's "Call Her Daddy" podcast, a show about sex and relationships, than she could on CBS' "60 Minutes" and ABC's "The View" combined. Both shows skew very old, too.

  • Memes, prediction markets and long-form podcast interviews shape the conversation as surely as any front page.

This new fragmented reality is the future — not just of elections, but also for how America learns about business, products, technology, culture and current events.

  • It's how reality will be shaped and "truths" hardened.

  • It's where partisans will sharpen and spread their ideas — or lies.

  • It's where trends and misinformation will be born and trafficked.

  • It's where products and brands will be judged and sold.

  • It's where a new generation of information stars are spawned.

DAYTONA BEACH, FLA - A Florida woman called 911 to “order a pizza” as a diversion to seek help.

The Volusia Sheriff’s Office 911 Communications Center received the emergency call around 4 a.m. ET, and the dispatcher quickly learned that the woman calling to order a pizza was actually calling for help.

An audio recording of the call, which distorts the victim’s voice for privacy, and bodycam footage of the woman’s rescue were shared to the Volusia Sheriff’s Office social media accounts.

The communications center and patrol deputies were able to use the woman’s phone to track her location, which was somewhere in the middle of a field in Pierson, Florida.

As deputies approached the woman’s location, they found that the suspect was on top of the female while she was screaming for help. The officers were able to spring into action quickly and detain the suspect.

“I can’t say enough about the great work shown in this video and the smart thinking of this victim who figured out a way to call for help,” Volusia Sheriff Mike Chitwood said.

Chitwood identified the suspect as 27-year-old Luis Diego Hernandez-Moncayo, who is in the U.S. illegally and reportedly applied for asylum the day before the incident.

BREAKING: Charges Dropped Against Michigan Duck Rescue Founders After DNR Case Collapses

The legal battle between the Michigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Duck Rescue and Sanctuary has come to an end. with all charges dismissed against the couple who run the operation.

Matthew and Teresa Lyson, founders of the Salem Township sanctuary, had faced six criminal charges each after state officials accused them of keeping and caring for waterfowl without proper permits. This week, the Washtenaw County Prosecutor’s Office dismissed the cases in their entirety, following months of public scrutiny and growing political pressure.

“This is great news,” Lyson told Keeping It Real. “All charges against me and Teresa are 100 percent gone. It’s a done deal, and we get to start new.”

Background of the Case

The Michigan Duck Rescue and Sanctuary has operated for nearly two decades, caring for injured or abandoned ducks, geese, and other waterfowl — many of which suffer from “angel wing,” a deformity often caused by people feeding them improper food. The Lysons say their work ...

School board bans clapping....seriously

ALPENA, Mich. — A new rule banning applause and other displays of emotion at Alpena Public Schools board meetings has sparked pushback from community members who say the policy infringes on their free speech rights.

The board recently adopted a policy prohibiting clapping, cheering, booing, or any demonstrations from audience members during meetings. Board President Eric Lawson said the restriction is meant to prevent disruptions and maintain order.

“We’re doing our best to show respect to you all and make sure you have adequate time for your comments,” Lawson said during a recent meeting. “Please show the board a little respect as well.”

Not everyone in attendance agreed. Several residents voiced frustration, including one woman who argued that clapping constitutes symbolic speech protected under the First Amendment.

“Clapping is a universal symbolic action that typically expresses approval,” she said. “Up until one week ago, clapping was a regular occurrence at these ...

Jocelyn Benson brags about stifling DOJ’s pursuit of election integrity

Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson made a special video to assure Michiganders she’ll never let anyone review her Qualified Voter File to ensure elections are as “secure and accurate” as she claims.

The video message centers on a request from the U.S. Department of Justice for information on Michigan’s bloated voter rolls and illegal votes cast in 2024, one of dozens of requests to states that align with President Donald Trump’s executive order “Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections.”

Benson is framing the July request, along with a DOJ lawsuit, as a “power grab” with nefarious intentions as she prepares to run her own campaign for governor in 2026, while preying on fears about government access to voters’ “sensitive personal data.”

“The United States Justice Department is trying to get me, Michigan’s chief election officer, to turn over your Social Security number, driver’s license number, and voting information,” Benson said in the video. “I told them they can’t have it.” Click here to read more.

 

‘Indoctrination’: MSU Forces Future Teachers To Take Class Rooted In Black Lives Matter

Students at Michigan State University hoping to become the educators of the next generation are forced to take a race-centered course that follows “the guiding principles of the Black Lives Matter” movement and requires students to read from a book condemning “whiteness.”

Course materials obtained by the young America’s Foundation group on MSU’s campus and shared with The Daily Wire show that one class for future teachers pushes leftist theories on race. The introductory three-credit class, “TE 101: Social Foundations of Justice and Equity in Education,” is required for all Secondary Education majors at MSU and is typically taken before their junior year. TE 101’s course description states that it emphasizes “racial justice, equity, and social identity markers.”

The syllabus for TE 101 states that the class is “committed to the Guiding Principles of the Black Lives Matter Movement, Learning for Justice’s Social Justice Standards, and the principles of the Abolitionist Teaching Network.” Click here to read more.

Nebraska’s cruel crackdown threatens vital care for adults with developmental disabilities

Injustice is lurking around the quiet corners of Lincoln, Nebraska. The Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) is threatening to strip away the proven and personalized care of adults with developmental disabilities, by dismantling the programs that gave them independence and hope.

For nearly two decades, Integrated Life Choices (ILC) has been a lifeline for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Founded in 2006 by Joshua Midgett and William Arrants, the organization was built upon one mission: To empower their clients to live independently and make a difference in their respective communities.

COO Justin Solomon explains ILC’s mission as “helping adults with developmental disabilities live in their community each and every day.” In practice, ILC operates facilities that are essentially group homes, where their adult clients live together with round-the-clock staff. Justin describes it as a sort of “adult foster care where someone with disability is living in a home with another person and they kind of share the life of that person and their family.” Click here to read more.

Court Rules that Minnesota Horse Teacher is Able to Continue Teaching in Important First Amendment Win

ARLINGTON, Va.—The United States District Court of Minnesota has granted victory to equine massage teacher Leda Mox of Becker, Minnesota in her case on whether teaching is protected under the First Amendment. The ruling follows a previous ruling where the court denied a motion to dismiss by the Commissioner of the Minnesota Office of Higher Education stating the “Commissioner has not provided (and could not appropriately provide at this stage) any evidence,” that the law requiring her to be licensed “advances at least important governmental interests and does not burden substantially more speech than is necessary.” Leda is represented by the Institute for Justice (IJ), a public interest law firm.

“This ruling is another victory for Leda, for teachers everywhere, and most importantly for the First Amendment,” said IJ Senior Attorney Jeffrey Redfern. “The right to free speech shall not be infringed. Teaching is speech, and is protected under the Constitution.” Click here to read more.

Whitmer whiffs at real auto jobs numbers, again

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer claimed that she’s secured 36,000 auto jobs through subsidies and private jobs announcements since 2019, but the data says otherwise.

In an Oct. 14 news release, Whitmer celebrated an announced investment from Big Three automaker Stellantis.

“Since I took office, we’ve worked across the aisle to win every possible auto project, securing more than 36,000 auto jobs. Thanks to partners like Stellantis and our massive network of auto suppliers, we will continue to dominate the auto industry and bring supply chains home even as we face national economic uncertainty. “We don’t care what you drive—gas, diesel, hybrid, or electric—as long as it’s made in Michigan. Together, let’s keep bringing manufacturing home, growing the middle class, and putting the world on wheels.” Click here to read more.

 

SNAP Beneficiaries Steal Groceries, Threaten Riots as Benefits Lapse

Left-wing TikTokers are shamelessly promoting rioting and stealing as the pause of food stamps, or the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), looms due to the government shutdown.

A man fuming over an apparent increase in loss prevention employees at Walmart took to social media to call on others to join him in holding down and fighting security to “help people steal.”

“It just became ‘Help People Steal’ November. It just became ‘Help People Live’ November,” the man ranted in a video. “People deserve to eat, I dont give a fuck about Walmart’s profit margins. I personally will hold back a security guard. I will fight back a security guard if they try to stop someone from stealing food they need to fucking live.” Click here to read more.

In Explosive Report, Virginia AG Exposes Failures of Soros-Funded Prosecutor

It’s no secret that billionaire George Soros has helped install rogue prosecutors in the Old Dominion, sending more than $1.1 million to elect Parisa Dehghani-Tafti in Arlington, more than $300,000 to Ramin Fatehi in Norfolk, and almost $750,000 to Steve Descano in Fairfax.

But a new report from Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares shows how one of those prosecutors has undermined Virginia’s justice system and failed to protect victims’ rights in Fairfax County.

In a devastating August 2025 investigative report, Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares detailed several of the so-called “reforms” pushed by Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano. Click here to read more.

DeSantis directs H-1B visa crackdown, announces $33 million in DEI grants canceled or repurposed

TAMPA, Fla. – Gov. Ron DeSantis on Wednesday directed the Florida Board of Governors to end the use of H-1B work visas in the state university system, saying that the visas are being abused to hire foreign workers for jobs that should go to qualified Americans.

The governor announced the policy change alongside the results of a state audit revealing the cancellation or repurposing of millions of dollars in diversity, equity, and inclusion, or DEI-related, grants across Florida’s public universities.

DeSantis said that Florida institutions would no longer be permitted to use the H-1B visa program to hire specialized foreign labor. He argued that the practice undermines American workers and graduates. Click here to read more.
