02:42 Uhr A Gift to Putin, a Betrayal of Ukraine: Even Republicans Are Now Rebelling Against Trump's Diesel Deal

12 U.S. senators, including 6 Republicans, are demanding that Donald Trump immediately reverse his diesel agreement with Russia. By lifting sanctions on Russian diesel exports, Trump is opening up additional sources of revenue for Moscow while Putin continues his war against Ukraine. The agreed delivery of more than 300,000 metric tons of diesel amounts to less than a single day's demand from the American transportation sector. The senators call it a gift to an adversary and a betrayal of Ukraine and America's allies. The signatories include Mitch McConnell, Susan Collins, and John Cornyn. Particularly explosive is the October 18 deadline: Under a new law, Trump must either impose sweeping sanctions on Russian energy transactions or explicitly waive them. Asked whether Russia could use the proceeds to finance more bombs, Trump said nobody had told him anything about it.

ß7:42 PM PM Hungary Partially Repeals Orbán's Anti-LGBT Law: Discrimination Remains

Hungary's parliament has voted 139 to 51 to repeal parts of the "Child Protection" law passed in 2021 under Viktor Orbán. The previous bans on portraying sexual and gender diversity and on its alleged "promotion" are being replaced with more general child protection provisions. Prime Minister Péter Magyar said the changes would bring Hungarian law into line with EU requirements. Human rights organizations welcome the move but criticize the fact that numerous discriminatory provisions remain in place. These include restrictions on the legal recognition of transgender people and provisions that have been used to ban Pride events. Magyar also announced plans to amend the ban on adoption by same-sex couples that has been in place since 2020.

02:58 AM Getty Images on the Brink of Bankruptcy: Billions in Debt, AI Competition, and a 99% Stock Market Collapse

Photo and video giant Getty Images is facing a radical new beginning. The company announced Monday that it plans to file for an expedited Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the coming weeks and then go private. Getty is carrying around $2.1 billion in debt, while its market value had recently shrunk to just $20.74 million. Since going public in 2022, its shares have lost roughly 99% of their value. The failed merger with Shutterstock and growing competition from AI-generated images have made the crisis even worse. The Getty family and Koch Equity Development plan to take full ownership of the company and provide up to $533 million in fresh equity. Business operations are expected to continue as usual during the bankruptcy proceedings, and suppliers are expected to be paid in full. A photo giant once valued at $4.8 billion is now disappearing from the public stock market, at least for the time being.

06:33 PM Welcome to the Banana Republic of America: Trump's Investigators Raid Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar's Apartment - When the Government's Enforcement Machine Shows Up at a Member of Congress's Door

Federal investigators have raided the Washington apartment of Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar. The investigation reportedly concerns immigration documents dating back roughly 30 years. Omar is one of Donald Trump's fiercest critics, and he has subjected her to racist attacks for years. Now federal investigators are showing up at her apartment, just weeks before the midterm elections. This goes far beyond a question of old immigration papers. What evidence justifies such an intrusion against an elected member of the United States Congress, and how independently can an investigative agency operate when its president has spent years publicly attacking the woman at the center of the case?
