Episode Description from the Publisher

Aaron McIntire covers the U.S. Air Force pulling all of its bombers from RAF Fairford in the UK after a suspected terror plot near the base led to six arrests. He plays Trump's midterm pitch from his Oklahoma rally, Justice Samuel Alito's Fox News Sunday interview on the Dobbs leaker and retirement speculation, and Senator Mark Kelly's Face the Nation answer on lowering costs. Aaron also breaks down Brazil's first round election, where Flávio Bolsonaro advanced to an October 25 runoff against President Lula and Michelle Bolsonaro won a Senate seat, plus new details on the FlyDubai cockpit attack that Israeli media say was aimed at crashing the plane into Ben Gurion Airport. He covers a lab worker's death at a Russian anti-plague institute in Siberia, student protests across France, and Trump's rally aside about aspirin that tied into Bayer's $2.2 billion Ohio investment. Aaron closes with a reflection on why Trump's showman style may never be repeated, whether you love him or hate him
