EMPIRE STATE PROPOSAL FALLOUT: The daredevil couple who scaled the Empire State Building to get engaged on its lightning rod will appear in an NYC courtroom Tuesday. The Russian nationals—famous for climbing world landmarks—are now facing multiple felony charges, including reckless endangerment and criminal mischief.

ISRAEL DECIDES: The two wildcards that could upend Israel’s election today: The Expat Surge: Tens of thousands of Israelis have flown home to cast ballots—an unpolled demographic widely projected to vote against Netanyahu. Historic Arab Turnout: Arab parties are projected to secure roughly 14 seats, making them indispensable kingmakers for whoever attempts to build a governing coalition.

The White House just floated Nicki Minaj as the next Press Secretary. Aboard Air Force One en route to Donald Trump’s rally in Michigan, White House Communications Director @StevenCheung47 posted a video interviewing Minaj—and teased the idea of her stepping up to the podium. Would you tune in to watch Nicki handle the White House briefing room?

No softball questions here. With Election Day around the corner, Ohio voters press @VivekGRamaswamy on why he deserves the governor’s seat.

"It gets weirder and weirder and weirder and stranger." @VivekGRamaswamy calls out his opponent in the Ohio gubernatorial race for dodging debates and barring cameras from campaign events: "The conservative news giants of CNN and local NBC news invited both of us to a debate... I said, I'm going to do it. I will show up. I owe it to the people of the state. If I can debate on these networks, I can certainly lead the state. She declined both of them." Ramaswamy adds: "Even one thing that's even stranger in this campaign is she actually bans video recording at her own events... This is a woman who's had two different 911 calls on her, by her own daughter."

"You never start a fight. But if you find yourself in one, you finish it." @VivekGRamaswamy defends his controversial campaign ad featuring the estranged mother of his Democratic opponent, Amy Acton, arguing his campaign is responding to months of personal and family attacks: "They've attacked me. They've defamed my mother to media silence. It's unbelievable. And yet at the same time, they'll trot out anything to attack a Republican. We're standing for truth. And so the irony is, they're lying about an ad that was about her lying." Ramaswamy challenges Acton to debate him on the issues: "She is hiding because they want to lie and then deflect accountability. We're not going to let them get away with that, because this election is about helping Ohio families."

"This is about nations that have failed to do the most fundamental things for their people." Former Secretary of State @mikepompeo breaks down the unrest spreading across Europe—warning that a "toxic brew" of wide open borders, reckless spending, and a refusal to confront radical Islam is driving the chaos: "They had wide open borders. They let in too many folks, and they didn't know who they were. Second, they've spent way too much money and they're not delivering on that. They're creating no value for their constituents. And their country is now broke. Finally, they've refused to call out radical Islamists. And when you have those three things, that toxic brew, you get what you're seeing all across Europe."

"It’s not about tofu, it’s about freedom." Former President Obama mocked GOP warnings about Democrats as fearmongering over "the woke police that will come arrest you and force feed you tofu instead of hamburgers." @RCamposDuffy fired right back: "No, the woke police were censoring conservatives during COVID. The woke police went and put charges—90-some charges—against President Trump and tried to take him off the ballot. The woke police are the ones that were trying to … indoctrinate your kids on weird gender ideology … calling them by other names and pronouns and starting them on transition drugs … behind your back."

LAWRENCE JONES: "Barack Obama is making the case that the fundamental values of El-Sayed and his are the same. You kidding me? Defund ICE? Tom Homan was Obama's guy, by the way. No support of Israel—get rid of the Iron Dome? Barack Obama, you brought the Iron Dome. Medicare for All: you got us Obamacare, but you said Medicare for All was too much. I want to understand what part of his policies are fundamental to the former president. Maybe this is what Barack Obama wanted to do all along?" | @LawrenceBJones3

"If my mother said bad things about me, do you think the Democrats would put it up? I think so. But my mother thought I was wonderful. Thank you mom!" President Trump lashed out at a reporter while defending Vivek Ramaswamy’s controversial Ohio campaign ad—which features his opponent Amy Acton’s estranged mother. "You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?"

"That's one of the worst answers I think I've ever heard." President Trump torched Rep. Ilhan Omar at an Iowa rally, mocking her "not to my knowledge" response when asked if she was related to her ex-husband. Omar denied the allegations, but Trump wasn't buying it—labeling her answer an all-time political disaster.

END OF AN ERA: Central Park's historic horse-drawn carriages are coming to an end. The NYC City Council voted to ban the 170-year-old tradition by June 2028 following a fatal runaway carriage accident. While animal rights activists celebrate the move, drivers are threatening legal action and Donald Trump called it a "sad loss for New York." | @aacuna1
