After Midterm Losses, Will Trump Escalate Iran War or Wind It Down?: Col. Mike Jernigan Weighs In
Retired Marine Col. and Heritage Foundation fellow Mike Jernigan joins Tiffany Meier after Vice President JD Vance questioned whether the Iran war was worth the cost and an earlier recommendation to end it was sound advice. He weighs President Trump's defense that the campaign stopped Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, reports that a return to major combat is under consideration, and how a Democratic Congress could use the power of the purse once it is seated in January.

Midterm: Short-Term Gain, Long-Term Pain for China; China Calls Explosive Found at PNG a 'Wine Bottle'
A significant Democratic victory in the U.S. midterm elections: Is it a gain or a setback for China—or is it perhaps both? We examine the facts and explain what the results could mean for Beijing. Hong Kong pro-democracy activist Joshua Wong will spend another decade behind bars. The court's ruling has drawn sharp criticism from the United States and Taiwan. An unprecedented meeting between President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Chinese leader Xi Jinping could take place this year. Both Beijing and Moscow have hinted at the possibility. China's economic woes are spilling onto the streets. From construction sites to factory floors, workers are staging protests and demanding months of unpaid wages. China's embassy is dismissing a military explosive as a harmless, shell-shaped wine bottle, insisting it poses no danger. The device, part of a Chinese weapon, was discovered in the Pacific island nation of Papua New Guinea.

New Wave of Bomb Hoaxes Hits 27 Passenger Flights Across Europe
Hoax bomb threats affected at least 27 flights across Europe on Thursday, the second wave this week, forcing several aircraft to make unplanned landings and prompting fighter jets to escort or intercept others. French Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu's office said he had sent fighter jets to intercept an Aer Lingus flight from Dublin to Rome and escort it to an air force base at Evreux after the pilot did not cooperate with authorities as expected. No reason was given for the pilot's behavior. Bulgaria's air force said its fighter jets had escorted three airliners to the ground. Ryanair planes from Copenhagen and Madrid to Sofia landed as planned, while a flight from London to Sofia was diverted to Plovdiv, Bulgaria's second city. Spanish authorities received 3 emailed bomb threats in under 20 minutes involving 2 Air Europa departures from Madrid to Paris and 4 inbound Iberia flights from Rome and Milan, Spain's Guardia Civil said. In Warsaw, an LOT flight to Paris was stopped as it taxied toward take-off, and passengers were transferred to another aircraft. A flight from Cork in Ireland was delayed 90 minutes after the airport received a threat, the airport operator said.

Ted Cruz Says Election Results a 'Watergate-Level Repudiation' for Republicans
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) says Tuesday's midterm results were a "blue tsunami" and a "Watergate-level repudiation" for Republicans, who lost control of both the House and Senate. In a lengthy post on X, Cruz said Republicans failed to respond to voters' frustration over the cost of living. The losses hit hardest in his home state. Democrats won every statewide race in Texas, including James Talarico's Senate victory over Ken Paxton and Gina Hinojosa's unseating of Gov. Greg Abbott.

Nasdaq-100 Eyes $1.8 Trillion Loss as Democrat Win Sparks AI Delay Fears
The Nasdaq-100 index was set to lose a whopping $1.8 trillion in stock value on Thursday as investors feared that the Democrats' sweeping midterm victory could stall the pace of AI infrastructure expansion. The rout marked a dramatic slide from a relatively mild initial reaction in the previous session, when the index, stacked with elite tech companies, rose on hopes that an end to election-related uncertainty could improve overall sentiment. Shares of semiconductor and neocloud companies, which were behind much of the market's gains in the recent past, witnessed sharp declines for a second straight day on worries that data center buildouts worth billions of dollars could face delays. The losses suggested investors are beginning to price in the possibility that political gridlock and greater scrutiny of data-center development could slow one of Wall Street's most important growth engines.
