🇺🇸🇨🇳 The CEO of the world’s most valuable company was sleeping with a Chinese spy.
Trump knew. Rubio warned him directly. He did nothing, then personally overruled intelligence agencies to put Jensen Huang on Air Force One to Beijing.
Ian Bremmer, founder of @EurasiaGroup, joins me to break it all down.
Jensen’s mistress may have been recruited by Chinese intelligence after the relationship started. Bremmer says it would be “dereliction of duty” if Beijing had not tried.
She was also a senior executive at a company caught smuggling Nvidia chips into China.
The Trump-Xi APEC summit is now completely overshadowed. Every journalist in that room will ask about Nvidia. Advanced chip sales to China are almost certainly finished.
Saudi Aramco headquarters took a direct missile hit. The Houthis are threatening MBS existentially while Washington stays hands off.
Gulf states are building their own security architecture because American guarantees have collapsed.
Putin is treating Trump like a patsy. The Abu Dhabi Ukraine talks are going nowhere. Xi, Putin, and Khamenei’s successor all seem to have Trump’s number.
The post-American order is already here.

US officials are not hopeful, they’re desperate. After the midterms promised oversight and accountability, time is running out to grab all that sweet Russian cash that Putin has been promising them and their families for sabotaging and sacrificing Ukraine.

Today's update:
Democrats have gained 545 seats in state legislatures this year. They've officially gained more seats than in 1964, when Lyndon Johnson won by a landslide.

It’s beyond me why we should give 🇷🇺 a voice in the security relationship between 🇺🇦 and other countries. It’s no business of theirs.

Russia is using AI deepfake videos to claim it’s advancing much further in Ukraine than it actually is. Great reporting by @katyaarenina ft.com/content/7f36031b-ea90…

It was an honour to lay a wreath at the Cenotaph this morning.
This Sunday we remember all those who never came home, the families who never stopped waiting and we pay tribute to all those who wear the uniform today.

To the WSJ ed board: Trump didn’t steal this election only because our coalition stopped him for 21 months.
We beat 8 major sabotage schemes—culminating in our election-eve SCOTUS win in California.

Republicans confronted a five-alarm fire Tuesday that engulfed their House and senate majorities, and is still smoldering.
But instead of a hose, @POTUS reached for a can of kerosene by naming the incendiary Stephen Miller as his new WH COS.

🚨 MAMDANI JUST TURNED JD VANCE INTO A JOKE ON LIVE TV! 😂
Vance tried to take credit for New York's falling crime rates. Mamdani responded with a 9-second video that said more than a thousand political speeches ever could.
The entire Morning Joe crew couldn't stop laughing.
Imagine taking credit for work you didn't do. 💀

"The American people expect a certain amount of corruption in government because government is composed of people, and men aren’t angels. They’ll accept a normal amount if the government keeps a strong economy and peace. But fail on the economy and peace and they’ll see your corruption and be angered by it. And if you give them corruption that is showy and shameless, they will punish you. They will admit to themselves that you are unusually sleazy and moneygrubbing—Bitcoin! Crypto! Charges of pardons for sale! Federal contracts for the companies of the sons! PLS WIRE AMEX 100K SOONEST!—and they will turn on you.
"In this regard most of all, this White House drove the Republican brand into the ground.

It’s hard to overstate just how factionalized the West Wing is right now, filled with the tension, infighting and the "knives out” atmosphere of President Trump's first term. Our latest reporting tonight:

Knowing he was facing a tough Midterm election, @POTUS ordered @GOP govs and legislatures to take the extraordinary step of mid-decade redistricting to redraw congressional lines.
This effort to rig elections in his favor failed spectacularly.
TX and FL were the hub of the plan.
But of the nine seats the Rs hoped to pick up between the two states, they gained just one.
Meanwhile, in CA, which, led by Gov. Newsom, voters approved a remap in response, and Dems picked up five seats.
And the @GOP efforts also inflamed Black and Hispanic voters in the South and Southwest, hiking turnout and Dem voting.
In Texas, the governor who dutifully launched the remap wars lost in a stunning upset. The state house that affirmed the plan turned blue for the first time in more than two decades.
For Republicans, Trump's gambit was an unmitigated disaster.

So here is the question: How are you going to ensure Moscow not only accepts these principles on paper but abides by them in practice?
Until you figured that out, there is no agreement, no ceasefire, no peace, and no security structure any European country can accept. /end

.@PeteHegseth, cabinet secretaries shouldn't be wasting taxpayer dollars on campaign style videos. Kristi Noem learned that the hard way.
This is about you: the incompetence you’ve displayed, the bad advice you’ve given to president, and your shameful and embarassing episodes from firing our top generals to texting war plans to reporters.
