The Supreme Court just handed Trump a 6-3 win on his mail-ballot executive order, lifting the injunction that had blocked USPS from enforcing it — exactly the outcome we told you was coming. Meanwhile, Iran's economy is buckling under the U.S. naval blockade, with fuel shortages sparking lines at gas pumps and fresh protests as the regime's misery index spikes into triple digits in some provinces. And in Michigan, Abdul El-Sayed's attempt to distance himself from Hasan Piker keeps failing to stick the landing. TONIGHT'S RUNDOWN: - The Supreme Court rules 6-3 to lift the injunction blocking Trump's mail-ballot executive order, allowing USPS to move forward with new voter-eligibility rules just weeks before absentee voting begins for the midterms — the three liberal justices dissent, and legal experts say implementation still faces massive logistical hurdles - Iran's economy buckles as the U.S. naval blockade cuts off fuel imports, sparking gas lines and protests across Tehran, Isfahan, and Ahvaz — the regime's own misery index has spiked above 115% in several provinces - Abdul El-Sayed tries again to distance himself from streamer Hasan Piker after new comments targeting a Jewish Michigan state senator draw bipartisan condemnation — but Republican Mike Rogers and even fellow Democrats aren't letting him off the hook The Tony Kinnett Cast is The Daily Signal's nightly flagship show, hosted by national correspondent Tony Kinnett — covering the day's biggest stories with analysis, commentary, and guests from across the political and media landscape.

    Supreme Court & White House Fights, Mass Beef Imports, and Lots of Online Yelling

The Supreme Court just handed President Trump a win, temporarily allowing construction on his White House ballroom to continue despite two lower courts ruling it illegal without congressional approval. Meanwhile, Trump is opening the floodgates on beef imports to fight grocery prices — and some Republicans and ranchers aren't happy about it. Add in a wave of online fighting over data centers and postpartum mental health, plus brand new midterm polling, and it's a packed show tonight. TONIGHT'S RUNDOWN: - Chief Justice John Roberts issues a temporary stay letting Trump's $300+ million White House ballroom construction continue, pausing lower court rulings that found the project illegal without Congress's approval — the case is 65% complete with crews working 20-hour days - Trump announces a 90-day tariff waiver allowing up to 300,000 metric tons of ground beef imports at 25% below market price to fight record grocery costs — ranchers and some Republicans immediately push back, warning it hurts domestic herds already at their lowest levels since the 1950s - Online fights erupt over two very different topics: a bipartisan backlash against AI data centers driving up electricity bills nationwide, and a nasty conservative-on-conservative fight over comments dismissing postpartum psychosis amid the ongoing Lindsay Clancy murder trial - Brand new midterm polling shows Democrats holding a real but narrowing generic ballot lead as the Iran war scrambles the usual political dynamics — we break down what the numbers actually mean heading into November The Tony Kinnett Cast is The Daily Signal's nightly flagship show, hosted by national correspondent Tony Kinnett — covering the day's biggest stories with analysis, commentary, and guests from across the political and media landscape.

Meanwhile, the UK Home Office is handing migrants a literal instruction pamphlet explaining that child abuse and assault are illegal in Britain — yes, that's a real government document in 2026.

TONIGHT'S RUNDOWN: - LA Mayor Karen Bass touts the city's 6-to-1 taxpayer-funded campaign donation match, turning a $5 gift into $35 in her own reelection war chest — legal under LA's ethics rules, but drawing outrage as the city struggles to fund basic services - The UK Home Office distributes guidance to asylum seekers explicitly explaining that child abuse and sexual assault are against the law in Britain, "even if they look older" — a jaw-dropping admission of what officials feel they need to spell out - Michigan Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed compares himself to a "radical" Jesus while facing fresh scrutiny after reports surfaced that his mother worked for years at a organization the U.S. Treasury designated as a global terror-financing group - Newly nominated Democratic socialist Angie Nixon pulls off a stunning upset in Florida's Senate primary, becoming the first DSA member ever to win a statewide major-party nomination — we break down her most eyebrow-raising positions The Tony Kinnett Cast is The Daily Signal's nightly flagship show, hosted by national correspondent Tony Kinnett — covering the day's biggest stories with analysis, commentary, and guests from across the political and media landscape.

Meanwhile Chuck Schumer just quietly told the Washington Post Democrats can win the Senate even without Michigan, an extraordinary admission about Abdul El-Sayed's chances there.

Democrat Senate candidates keep making the same insulting argument against voter ID: that Black voters and women are too poor or too incompetent to get a REAL ID or birth certificate. It's condescending, it's not backed by the data, and Democrat insiders know it's a losing message heading into November. Meanwhile, Abdul El-Sayed's Islamist-funding problem in Michigan keeps getting worse, and the Iran ceasefire deadline just expired with President Trump telling Tehran to wave the white flag. TONIGHT'S RUNDOWN: - Senate Democrats like Jon Ossoff and Sen. Tammy Duckworth keep insisting Black voters and married women can't realistically obtain a REAL ID or birth certificate — we've got the data showing that's simply false, and why party insiders are worried this message is backfiring - Abdul El-Sayed's Michigan Senate campaign faces mounting scrutiny after a Senate Judiciary hearing detailed his campaign's $115,000+ in donations from CAIR-linked donors, including his own father-in-law's ties to Muslim Brotherhood-connected groups - The 60-day U.S.-Iran ceasefire deadline expires today with no deal in sight — Trump tells Iran to "put up the white flag of surrender" as Tehran shifts to what it's calling a "maximum deterrence" posture - More as news breaks The Tony Kinnett Cast is The Daily Signal's nightly flagship show, hosted by national correspondent Tony Kinnett — covering the day's biggest stories with analysis, commentary, and guests from across the political and media landscape.

A federal judge's repeated stays blocking the end of Temporary Protected Status for Somalis finally ran out today, clearing the way for termination after months of what DHS called open defiance of the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, Luigi Mangione stood up in federal court and admitted it himself: "I shot Mr. Thompson in Manhattan, and he died" — a guilty plea that guts a year of online conspiracy theories and folk-hero mythmaking overnight. And Michigan Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed is having the worst 48 hours of his campaign.
