From my AI discussion:
A lighter Thumb this week — because sometimes the omissions speak louder than the segments.
Margaret Brennan hosts:
Expect energy policy, Middle East framing, and poll‑watching. Nothing surprising.
Shannon Bream hosts:
Legal talk, Supreme Court talk, and the usual Rove/Williams contrast performance.
Kristen Welker hosts:
Expect Rahm’s positioning, Kennedy’s one‑liners, and Kornacki’s charts.
George or Martha (depending on rotation):
FTC talk, Virginia race talk, and the usual panel churn.
Jake Tapper hosts:
Economy, legal case, and Tapper’s standard panel framing.
Larry Kudlow hosts:
Expect economic talk, GOP messaging, and Kudlow’s usual pacing.
Polls. Panels. Rahm’s 2028 warm‑up lap. FTC chatter. Legal analysis. Economic talking points. A predictable domestic‑politics Sunday.
Despite wall‑to‑wall domestic chatter, the networks somehow skipped three major stories:
Terrorist attacks — and attempted attacks — involve severe harm and loss of life, and any groups responsible are engaged in violent extremist activity. Both incidents fit that definition.
Migrant riots, street clashes, arson, police overwhelmed. A Western European domestic security crisis — ignored.
A national emergency for Britain’s coastal patrols and councils. Not a whisper.
The greatest power the media has is the power to ignore.

“The Sunday Morning Bray”, by Bray!
Proverbs 27:1King James Version
Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.
To all the Tuckers and Candaces in the country who think God no longer cares about Israel and are not the Chosen People, he sent a big hint this week. If anyone cannot look at the attempted crash of the Flydubai flight you cannot see it as an absolute miracle by God to save those Israelis. There was a 1 in a thousand chance that plane would survive and unbelievably did.
The crazy Mooselimb only had to kill the pilot and crash the plane in the name of allah and somehow was stopped when the stabbed pilot unlocked the door into the cabin. This allowed the Jewish plumber Yaniv Hayoun to rush the cabin and tear the copilot away from the controls and pin him to the ground while pushing the control forward which he saw from watching air disasters on TV.
Of course, the authorities have not found a motive of the Death Cult member who wants to kill Jews and Christians from birth would do such a thing. The media dares not say the truth the religion they have been promoting for twenty years as peaceful would have anything to do with crashing a plane although the same Fake Press has the same goals when it comes to Islam. Those poor oppressed Palestinians only want to murder and rape since they have been oppressed for so many years by the country occupying 1% of the Middle East. How can you expect them not to?
Speaking of Tucker, when he is not chanting River to the Sea, Palestine will be free or explaining why Bibi talked Trump into bombing Iran, likes to explain why America should have been willing to risk a mushroom cloud over Tel Aviv. In every stage of the war and then blockade God has had his hand on it and performed miracle after miracle for Israel and America. Maybe these Anti-Israelists need to look at this as a message from the Lord.
How can anyone look at their wars and existence after 2000 years of being scattered should make the most stiff-necked observer they are God’s people. Then you throw the Six-Day War and the numerous wars since their resettlement where they are always overmanned and continue to survive and thrive with the entire world against them.
Either they are the luckiest country on the planet, or they are God’s Chosen people and American needs to pay attention. America needs Israel more than Israel needs America. America is a Judeo-Christian country which was founded not the Bible, but it is not God’s Chosen which is why America needs Israel.
To look at this hijacking as anything but the hand of God is to ignore the truth. This hijacker should have killed the pilot and two minutes later the plane would be crashed. Not only did he not kill him, the pilot fought him off and opened the door for a plumber and a few others to come in, subdue the attacker and save the plane while another flight crew happened to be deadheading to Israel for another flight and landed it.
Too many coincidences to be an accident and it looks more like a message. This was a Praise God minute and a miracle was performed to save a 737 full of Jews he wanted to kill in the name of Allah. Only God would do it the way he did.
Pray for Israel and America

"When truth is replaced by silence, the silence is a lie." - Russian Poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko
France burns and the media plays with themselves.
IMHO, DJT has 5Ded everyone once again.
By holding back millions in campaign money until recently he basically has wounded the dems who are out there begging for pennies. They have depended on criminal ngos under scrutiny and all their other illegal election money deals. Problem is they all under intense scrutiny by the Trump administration.
Once Again Trump is destroying what is left of the democrat party.None of the drivebyas will mention it and we don't have to.
Just let it happen.
I celebrated yesterday. Made coq au vin for lunch. Today it will be quiche Lorraine.
I’ll be doing some computer upgrades and updates this morning...
See ya on the other side!
I liked this one:

Not only did he not kill him, the pilot fought him off and opened the door for a plumber and a few others to come in, subdue the attacker and save the plane while another flight crew happened to be deadheading to Israel for another flight and landed it.
The media is passing it off as an adrenalin rush from someone who has been stabbed numberous times which really does not pass the smell test.
I too would buy The hand of God Reaching out to save all on the plane.
...........................................
Once again we are living in a world where it's increasingly difficult to sort out the criminals/terrorists and others from the good guys.
One of the examples thats now getting easier to sort out is the election race of el-sayed.
I just finished a piece on his race for the senate against Mike Rogers in Michigan.
El Sayed has portrayed himself as whatever he has to be in front of what ever audience he is in front of. He's a fake. We now have preety good concrete evidnece of such as his key security man Jordan Domingue recently quit his job as head security for el sayed after two years.
It's a fascinating story well told by Gateway.
Its below.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/10/exclusive-abdul-el-sayed-top-staffer-quits-campaign/ EXCLUSIVE:
Abdul El-Sayed Top Staffer Quits Campaign—Shares Disturbing Truth About “Manufactured Man”–“Pushed multiple staff to tears”–“Immature”–“Cartoonishly fake masculinity” and “Loves to fart in public”
by Patty McMurray,p> Oct. 3, 2026 8:00 am
Gateway did an excellent job on this one.They had a top staffer,Jordan Domingue, his security guy of two years with all kinds of credibility even though he's a lib,spilling the beans on the crazed muslim ELsayed.
Below some clips from the piece:
Jordan Domingue, a top staffer who worked two of Abdul El-Sayed’s campaigns has quit the Democrat's U.S. Senate race and is now talking. What he describes is a candidate who has faked his way through public life, right down to the “physician” title.
This is a lengthy article, but every American needs to understand, from an insiders perspective, how dangerous this man would be if elected to the U.S. Senate.
Both featured in the photo: 
More from Gateway:
In a post on X, Jordan Domingue outlines his decision to defect from Abdul's campaign after working first on his failed gubernatorial campaign and again on his current Senate campaign.
“His foreign policy was driven by a desire to invoke what seemed like misplaced revenge.”
(Jordan)I protected Abdul for two years, I worked as his personal assistant/executive protection lead on his campaigns. I departed two jobs early from working abroad, moved to Michigan twice, and took pay-cuts averaging 50,000k.
I took his lovely wife to the hospital for visits when she was pregnant. His youngest daughter called me Mr. Jorjan. I painted him an original piece of artwork for his birthday.
I was happy to do and experience all of this. For his gubernatorial run he never mentioned foreign policy. During his senate run, his foreign policy was driven by a desire to invoke what seemed like misplaced revenge.
When I finally realized he didn't actually care about civilians and peace, everything I had previously ignored or excused made it obvious to who he was and that I was on the wrong side.
.................................
According to the piece Jordan Domingue looked past numerous indications that el sayed was a phony over and over until he just couldn't do it any more.
Jordan is a lib with Bernie Sanders one of his favs. Sorta reminded me of Seth Rich in a weird way,both having strong feelings for Bernie.
One of his comments was that: el sayed was trying to be an American but he was so in to being basically a terrorist he just had a hard time making the trip.
You got the impression that el sayed would say or do anything to get elected. This from a man who was with him 90% of the day week after week for two years.
..................................
Anyone left voting for this clown is basically brain-dead.

Look forward to it bud!
That point is most prescient, because their ability to ignore always steers the elections. And just look at all the things they’ve ignored and/or lied about in past election cycles. If not for them Barry would have never made it past Chicago and Joe would have been in Depends on Rehoboth Beach. And their ability to steer the primaries to assist,I wonder if McCain or Romney would have got as far without the legacies pushing them.
Gee....so he is a pure 100% conman, just like I’ve been saying for ages. And lets not forgot Mr I take no corporate money does take public money for doing nothing, and in the tradition of all leftists hides it all in shell companies.
The Mediots are saying the blockade has been a failure since it was not over in 24 hours. Iran is beaten and no longer launching 200 missiles at Israel and their neighbors while oil is now at pre-war levels without Iranian oil.
Only Stage 4 TDS does not call this a complete victory. So what if we have to guard the strait, we should have been doing it for 20 years. This was a wakeup call for oil.
The Fairford base attacks and the FlyDubai hi-jacking foretell what to expect of the mullahs during their last gasps for power.
October surprises normally impact Republican election chances with damaging news/rumors, but these recent events help us, imho.
Betchya’ the Omani co-pilot was one of the first “sleepers” called to action from Tehran.
....keep your heads on a swivel, eyes wide open....sleepers can erupt anywhere
And in many ways....look at the poison being sold by all these party stores,gas stations and smoke/vape shops around the country. And in every case the owners and their employees are all of middle eastern origin. A coincidence for sure.....?
Att. Gen., Todd Blanche, now up with Shannon.Je has to explain the difference between legal and illegal citizens to shannon who does have a law degree.
Liberals at "Time" want illegals to become legal and will create any version of the law they can and it appears Shannon agrees with them.
Blanche trys to explain the difference between illegal and legal to shannon but she clearly does not get it. Blanche explains to shannon how liberals in congress are desperate to make illegals legal and truth be known they will do anything to make sure that happens,legal or not.
Liberal judges in liberal states are mad because they can't say whatever they "feel" like saying,too bad, so sad. blanche trys to say that judges should not speak to the times since they represent some laws in some states. ........................................ Voting in Ohio happening now. Senate races in Ohio pubbies down 8%. President was there last night Sherrod Brown,lousy candidate, ramaswamy losing now, accd to polls he is still predicted to win let's hope he does.
Juan and Rove on the panel.
Rove says Expert statisticians showed 73% of 3,300 polls dem vote was overstated by 7%, a huge number. So an early lead by dems is meaningless.Juan says president having to go to red states to pump up our side.
JUan says trump is underwater due to gas prices.
Rove says dems have good candidates and some of ours are not so excellent. He's right.
Juan saying dems have huge leads accd. to polls. Rove says in 37 Congressional districts where race is tight dems are up only by 2%.
There seems to be lots of planned attacks being broken up.
below from your link:
A Michigan county reportedly paid progressive Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed $9,000 per month in consulting fees after he officially announced he was running.
Wayne County's Department of Health, Human and Veterans Services approved a contract with El-Sayed on April 23, 2025 — six days after he launched his Senate campaign — according to public records obtained by The Washington Free Beacon.
In a year grok predicts $70 oil.I think the real number will be much lower but it's hard to predict.
Evidently nat. gas is coming on strong as well.
