US has conducted defensive strikes on Iranian targets in the Strait of Hormuz, US official says WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States has conducted defensive strikes on some Iranian targets in the Strait of Hormuz, a U.S. official said Monday, on the eve of crucial midterm elections. https://apnews.com/article/iran-us-trump-netanyahu-israel-war-b4519ef86bafe2672e0855d7a48ce309?

Huge GOP streaming bet Illustration: Brendan Lynch/Axios The top Senate GOP super PAC has nearly tripled its spending on streaming and social media platforms this election cycle to more than $200 million, we scooped today. Why it matters: In a record cycle for ad spending, more political money is shifting to streaming, where super PACs have greater freedom to target voters, bargain and experiment — but platforms have more power to set the rules. In some states, streaming and social media have swallowed half of the Senate Leadership Fund budget, according to a source familiar with the group's spending. SLF's $200M+ total for the 2026 cycle (up from $71M in 2024) includes tens of millions of dollars funneled through the SLF-linked Texas PAC and its affiliated nonprofit One Nation. The other side: The top Senate Democratic super PAC declined to disclose how much it spent on streaming. "Senate Majority PAC invested more this cycle in digital communications than any previous cycle, running digital campaigns in 12 states," SMP communications director Lauren French told us. Zoom in: Streaming and social platforms let campaigns target more specific audiences than traditional broadcasts, and make it easier to measure the impact. But platforms can also set their own rules for which types of ads they accept. Some, like Netflix and TikTok, don't allow any candidate or issue ads. Between the lines: SLF works with platforms like SiriusXM, Paramount, Hulu and YouTube to lock in discounts based on their overall spending plans, according to the source. Groups can also experiment with lengths and formats for ads online, breaking the 30-second broadcast mold. The bottom line: It's just the beginning of maneuvering on streaming and coordinated buys. "That is definitely going to be the story of 2028," Kenny Day, senior vice president at IQM Corporation, told us. He said the Supreme Court decision on coordinated spending "was too late for either party to really take advantage of the allowance of coordinated spending" in the 2026 cycle. — Stef Kight

👉👈 Inside the blame game Illustration: Brendan Lynch/Axios Republicans don't know if they'll lose big or small tomorrow, but they're already bracing for an epic blame game. Why it matters: Returning Republican senators aren't likely to publicly blame President Trump — or Trump to shoulder the responsibility. But privately, Republicans acknowledge it's not a complicated version of Clue. The leading suspect: Mr. President, in the Oval Office, with an assortment of weapons — and one war. Trump is more likely to point the finger at Senate Republicans, whom he's never been shy about criticizing. The irony of Trump's second midterm: With Republicans privately resigned to losing the House, Trump can still credibly claim victory if they hold the Senate. "It's Donald Trump's midterms. He gets all the credit if we win. He gets all the credit if we lose," one national GOP strategist told us. 💣 The big picture: From Alaska to Maine, Trump's decision to go to war with Iran — and the resulting spike in gas and diesel prices — has become a major political liability for Republican Senate nominees. "The war with Iran needs to end, and end quickly," former Rep. Mike Rogers said in September. He trails in Michigan by more than the margin of error in the final N.Y. Times/Siena poll. "It's not tariffs … it's the war, it's gas prices, it's diesel," Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said at a closed-door fundraiser in September, we reported last month. Paxton also trails by more than the margin of error. But Trump's trade policies compounded Republicans' affordability problems, particularly in farm country, where producers have faced higher costs and uncertainty over export markets. 👇 Trump's preferred nominees are also drawing blame, GOP strategists tell us. Paxton in Texas and Darline Graham in South Carolina have forced Republicans to spend heavily defending races that should have been easier — and where the party had other options. Trump's political operation amassed an enormous war chest, but some Republicans complain the money arrived too late to rescue vulnerable candidates. 🫵 But Senate Republicans themselves shoulder some burden. Sens. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) and Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-Miss.) are facing accusations of "arrogance" and "laziness" from Republicans frustrated that their once-safe seats have become late-breaking battlegrounds — exactly the complacency NRSC Chair Tim Scott warned against. Recruitment failures: Republicans couldn't persuade Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp to run for Senate, and in New Hampshire settled for their second-choice Sununu — former Sen. John Sununu — instead of his brother, former Gov. Chris Sununu. Underperforming gubernatorial nominees in Iowa, Michigan and Ohio also threaten to drag down Republican Senate candidates. Vivek Ramaswamy, for example, saw his polling crater in the final weeks. Meanwhile, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer landed marquee candidates in Alaska, Ohio and Iowa — though Michigan and Maine proved more difficult. The bottom line: Trump's focus on D.C. construction projects, the Kennedy Center, Sen. Jon Husted's backside and the SAVE Act has frustrated Republicans desperate for a closing message focused on the economy. "Reflecting Pool presser was an interesting choice for closing message," another national GOP strategist said of Trump's news conference today. — Stef Kight and Hans Nichols

🛡️ Trump vows to protect Elon Photo illustration: Sarah Grillo/Axios. Photos via Getty Images President Trump says he'll try to protect Elon Musk if Democrats investigate the SpaceX and Tesla CEO after tomorrow's midterm elections, Axios' Ben Berkowitz reports. Trump also suggested preemptive pardons for staff and others around him. 🎙️ In an interview for the "Pod Force One" podcast published early today, the New York Post's Miranda Devine asked Trump about rumors of Musk being investigated or having his assets seized. Trump said: "It's talk. But if it is talk, we'll have to protect them." 🤑 Musk has spent nearly half a billion dollars opposing Democrats during this election cycle. He also recently suggested that it would be the end of democracy if Democrats win the White House and Congress in 2028. Trump also said that he'd consider pardons for his staff and other allies if Democrats pursue them: "I would not even think about it. I'd do it." Go deeper.

This isn't evidence. It's speculation with a dose of pop psychology. No version I'm aware of supports your Hebrew scholar's view. With Stendahl's view of Galatians, about half of the Bible versions support his understanding of Galatians 3: 23-25, as well as the context. Can you provide a commentary of two that support the view that the "he" in question is the serpent, not Adam? K+D does not. There are those in the church who hold that only trained language scholars can properly understand Scripture. I'm not among that group F.C. Gilbert was a Hebrew scholar in the eyes of some people. He came out with an interpretation of Daniel 8 "based on the Hebrew." W.W. Prescott demurred. If I remember correctly, Gilbert said the Hebrew supported a view [of the daily?] which has since been largely repudiated. If I remember correctly, Prescott pointed out that Gilbert's knowledge was not adequate to overthrow the work of numerous Hebrew scholars whose translation work did not support Gilbert's view. It's known as a private interpretation. Your "evidence" is quite thin. It is not the kind of evidence that I look for in determining the meaning of Scripture.

👋 Good morning! Welcome back. Stat du jour: Oilers superstar Connor McDavid has more points (39) than six entire NHL teams have goals so far this season. He's the best player in the world, and it's not even close right now. In today's edition: Valkyries crowned champs in Year 2, FSU fires Norvell, NFL scoreboard, AP poll movement, college hoops is here, Antonelli wins F1 title, Luka doing MJ things, and more. Yahoo Sports AM is written by Kendall Baker and Jeff Tracy. Let's sports...   🚨 ICYMI HEADLINES 🏈 FSU fires Norvell: Florida State fired Mike Norvell on Sunday amid a 3-5 start. The school will owe $51 million in buyout money to their departing head football coach, who went 41-39 during his mostly disappointing tenure in Tallahassee. ⚾️ Gold Glove winners: MVP favorite Pete Crow-Armstrong and World Series champions Jackson Chourio and Brice Turang headlined this year's 20 Gold Glove winners, which included nine first-time winners and an MLB-best three each from the Red Sox and Diamondbacks. 🏀 Irish sweep in Italy: Notre Dame beat Villanova twice in Sunday's season-opening doubleheader in Rome, with the men coming back for a narrow 74-72 victory and the women cruising to a 99-75 win behind 32 points from preseason All-American Hannah Hidalgo. 🏒 Kuch's trade request: The latest NHL star to request a trade is reigning MVP Nikita Kucherov, who informed the Lightning he will not re-sign with the team when he becomes a free agent after this season. The Russian has been with Tampa Bay since debuting in 2013, winning two MVPs and two Stanley Cups. ⚽️ NWSL Decision Day: Gotham FC secured its first Shield (best record) with a 2-0 victory on the last day of the regular season, while the Seattle Reign clinched the eighth and final playoff spot with a 1-0 win.   🏆 TITLETOWN THE YEAR OF THE LONGSHOT (Ezra Shaw/Getty Images) The Golden State Valkyries won the 2026 WNBA title on Saturday in just their second year of existence, continuing a recent trend of unlikely champions across North American sports. The grand finale: The Valkyries beat the Atlanta Dream, 68-63, in Game 7 behind a stellar performance from Gabby Williams. The Finals MVP set the tone with her defense and scored 28 second-half points to help Golden State become the first WNBA champion without a single All-WNBA selection (from that season) on the roster. "All it took was good people. That's it. All we heard last year: 'We don't have no stars, we don't have no talent,' yeah, right. We got winners. We got people who are ready to put their bodies on the floor to win the game. They don't care about scoring, they just want to play defense and rebound and do whatever it takes. We've just built a beautiful culture here." — Gabby Williams, WNBA Finals MVP The year of the longshot: The Valkyries (33-1) are the fourth champion crowned this calendar year that had 30-to-1 or longer preseason title odds, joining the Brewers (30-1), Seahawks (60-1) and Indiana Hoosiers in college football (100-1). No other year since 2002 (the earliest complete year in SportsOddsHistory's data for the Big Four + CFB/MBB) had anywhere near as many longshot champions. More heartbreak for Atlanta… The Dream fell to 0-4 in WNBA Finals, tied for the most appearances without a championship. That continues another familiar theme this fall, as the Rays (0-3) also set the record for most World Series appearances without a title.   🏈 WEEK 8 NFL SUNDAY SCOREBOARD Teammates crowd around Jack Campbell as he’s stretchered off the field. (Mike Mulholland/Getty Images) Lions 19, Vikings 15: In football news: The last undefeated team has fallen.

(Stacy Revere/Getty Images) Cardinals 33, Cowboys 30 (OT): Dallas had never lost at home (202-0-1) when leading by 14+ points in the fourth quarter… until Sunday. Backup QB Gardner Minshew came off the bench and simply took over. Steelers 27, Browns 6: Cleveland lost its 23rd straight regular-season game in Pittsburgh, tying an NFL record for most consecutive road losses vs. a single team. Raiders 38, Jets 33: The only positive news for Jets fans amid another disappointing start? If the season ended today, they'd own the 4th (via Colts), 5th (own) and 10th (via Cowboys) picks in the 2027 NFL Draft. Lamar Jackson finally returned on Sunday… only to go down with another injury. (Michael Owens/Getty Images) Bills 36, Ravens 10: Lamar Jackson (thumb) was injured on his first play back and needs surgery. Backup Tyler Huntley (toe) also exited the game and could miss extended time. Brutal news for Baltimore. Jaguars 42, Colts 7: How's this for efficiency: Trevor Lawrence (10/14, 210 yards, 3 TD) became the first QB with 3 TDs on fewer than 15 pass attempts since 2015. Patriots 24, Dolphins 19: Through seven games last year, Miami was 1-6 with a -65 point differential. This year? 1-6 with a -64 point differential. Progress! That's four straight wins for the first-place Broncos. (Aaron Ontiveroz/The Denver Post) Broncos 28, Chiefs 24: Denver erased an 11-point fourth quarter deficit to take over first place in the AFC West and win its 15th straight regular season game that was decided by one score. Rams 24, Chargers 9: The Bolts are the third team in the past 30 seasons to start 0-7 after making the playoffs, joining the 1997 Colts (year before drafting Peyton Manning) and 2011 Colts (Manning injured). Commanders 27, Eagles 10: Washington scored 27 unanswered points on "Sunday Night Football" to hand the reeling Eagles their sixth straight loss, Philly's longest losing streak since 2012.   💯 STAT SHEET BIG NUMBERS 🏎️ 20 years, 68 days Mercedes driver Kimi Antonelli finished third at Sunday's Mexico City Grand Prix to clinch the 2026 Formula 1 title, making him the series' youngest world champion… by more than three years. "I'm still trying to realize what just happened," said Antonelli, who also became the first Italian to win the title since Alberto Ascari in 1953. 🏀 37.7 ppg Lakers superstar Luka Dončić (45 points on Sunday) is averaging 37.7 points per game, the fifth-highest scoring average ever through the first six games of a season… and the most since Michael Jordan in 1986. And let's not forget: He's also racking up 8.2 rebounds (22nd in NBA) and 7.3 assists (9th) per contest. 👟 2:06:01 Sweden's Andreas Almgren used a superhuman 4:30 final mile to win the New York City Marathon (in his marathon debut!) with a time of 2:06:01. Kenya's Sheila Chepkirui won the women's race (2:24:36), finishing six seconds ahead of American Jess McClain (2:24:42).   🏈 TOP 25 THE AP POLL'S LAST DAY IN THE SUN (Hassan Ahmad/Yahoo Sports) Ohio State tumbled out of the Top 10 in the new AP poll after Saturday's stunning 30-18 loss to USC, which marked the third straight week that the AP No. 2 team lost (Notre Dame two weeks ago, BYU last week). Miami stayed at No. 1 after a narrow three-point win over North Carolina* that included two onside kick recoveries by UNC nullified because of penalties. Georgia moved up to No. 2 after a dominant win over Florida, while Utah jumped three spots to No. 3 after blowing out Cincinnati on the road. Elsewhere: Notre Dame moved up to No. 4 after beating Navy, while UCLA moved into the top five for the first time since 2001 … Indiana dropped two spots to No. 6 after escaping Minnesota in OT … USC is back in the poll at No. 18, while Iowa rejoined at No. 20 after shutting out Wisconsin … No. 22 New Mexico is ranked for the first time ever. Goodbye AP, Hello CFP: The first College Football Playoff rankings will be unveiled tomorrow night, and the committee's picks will drive the weekly conversation for the remainder of the season as the AP poll — the source of truth for the past two months — mostly fades into the background. Is it Saturday yet? No. 1 Miami visits No. 4 Notre Dame as part of this weekend's loaded slate, which also includes No. 2 Georgia at No. 12 Ole Miss, No. 3 Utah at No. 7 BYU, No. 8 Kentucky vs. No. 16 Tennessee, No. 9 Alabama at No. 15 LSU, No. 10 Texas at No. 23 Missouri and more. Yeah, I'm not leaving my couch… *A first for Bill: Miami's 38-35 victory over North Carolina marked the first time in Bill Belichick's head coaching career that his team scored at least 35 points and lost. His teams had been 103-0 entering the day.   📺 VIEWING GUIDE WATCHLIST: MONDAY, NOV. 2 Lumen Field reflects in the visor of Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

"I can't get away from this guy," joked Nelson, who's been facing off against Simmons for years in the AFC South. 🏀 Men's College Basketball The season tips off in earnest today with wall-to-wall action, and no game is more tantalizing than the Sunshine State clash between top-ranked Florida and No. 14 Miami (6pm, ESPN2) at Tampa's Benchmark International Arena, home of the Lightning.
