04:45 PM Affair With Alleged Chinese Spy: FBI Investigates Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, Trump Comes to His Defense

An affair has landed the head of one of the world's most valuable companies in serious trouble. According to Donald Trump, the FBI is investigating the relationship between Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and a woman who may have been working for Chinese intelligence. Huang admitted to the affair and publicly apologized to his wife and his company. According to a report, U.S. intelligence agencies believe the woman was gathering information for Beijing. Trump personally called Huang and later said he considered him an honorable man. Nvidia is now conducting its own investigation into whether its CEO was targeted by a foreign intelligence operation. Especially troubling is the question of whether China gained access to confidential information about advanced American computer chips through the relationship. Leading Democrats in Congress are demanding answers, while Beijing denies all allegations of espionage. Nvidia shares fell more than 4 percent on Monday and have lost roughly 11 percent since last Wednesday.

04:20 AM After Democrats' Election Victory: Fight Over Data Centers and Electricity Prices Puts Trump Under Pressure

The Democrats' sweeping election victory is forcing Congress to confront rising electricity costs driven by massive AI data centers. A bipartisan bill would speed up permits for power plants and transmission lines while making large data center operators pay a bigger share of the costs of upgrading the power grid. But those very measures are meeting resistance from environmental groups and some Democrats, who fear they'll fuel yet another construction boom. President Donald Trump supports the bill and warns that China will take any data center America turns down. Investment firm TD Cowen lowered its estimated chances of passage from 40 percent to 25 percent. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse nevertheless sees the bill as an opportunity to deliver on key campaign promises to make energy more affordable. Starting in January, Democrats will control both chambers of Congress and plan to introduce further legislation to rein in the spiraling costs and consequences of the AI buildout.

05:15 PM After Trump's Election Defeat, G7 Ministers Meet in Paris to Discuss America's Direction as Russia Bombs Ukraine Into Darkness

G7 foreign ministers are meeting in Paris on November 9 to discuss whether Donald Trump's defeat in the midterm elections will change American foreign policy. Secretary of State Marco Rubio is appearing before the allies for the first time since the election and offers little hope of reaching a deal with Iran. European partners fear another military escalation, while Washington continues to stick to its current course. Ukraine is also a major focus, with Russia deliberately destroying energy facilities in an effort to cause nationwide blackouts during the winter. The country urgently needs additional Patriot interceptor missiles and other air defense systems. Ahead of Tuesday's planned talks between the United States, Russia, and Ukraine in Abu Dhabi, tensions are also growing over Europe's role. Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni warns that Europe will become politically irrelevant if its governments continue pursuing separate diplomatic paths.

05:00 AM Russian Military Satellite Comes Within a Few Hundred Meters of Western Satellite: Suspected Rehearsal for an Attack in Space

Russia's Cosmos 2612 military satellite came within less than a kilometer of X36, a radar satellite operated by Finnish company ICEYE, in mid-October. Some observers believe it got as close as a few hundred meters. ICEYE also provides radar imagery that Ukraine can use for military operations. American space expert Greg Gillinger believes the maneuver may have been a trial run for an attack, since getting that close wouldn't be necessary for routine intelligence gathering. U.S. Under Secretary of State Thomas DiNanno said Russia's behavior was consistent with the use of weapons in orbit. Meanwhile, two more Russian military satellites are moving toward the orbital path of another ICEYE satellite, X37. German Space Commander Major General Michael Traut warns that such maneuvers could be used to temporarily disrupt satellites or permanently disable them, although he stresses that the movements alone don't prove an attack is being planned. Moscow has repeatedly described Western satellites helping Ukraine as potential targets for retaliation. Russia has not commented on this particular incident.

02:10 AM After Trump's Election Disaster, JD Vance Positions Himself for 2028 and Distances Himself From the Iran War

After the Republicans' crushing defeat in the midterm elections, Vice President JD Vance is working on building his own political profile ahead of 2028. During his campaign speeches, he increasingly avoided mentioning Donald Trump by name or bringing up his controversial policies. After the election, Vance publicly blamed the Iran war in part for the defeat and called for a quick end to the war. He also demanded more affordable living costs and a fundamental reassessment of America's relationship with Israel. Trump, meanwhile, continues to defend his war and said he wouldn't do anything differently. According to information from inside the White House, Vance coordinated his move with then-Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, suggesting this isn't an open break with Trump. But Vance has taken a political hit himself: Republicans lost in several states where he campaigned, even as he's already positioning himself as a possible presidential candidate in 2028.

02:00 AM Merz's Approval Collapses: CDU/CSU Drops Below 20 Percent for the First Time, AfD Hits 29 Percent, and 82 Percent Are Unhappy With the Chancellor

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has hit a new low in his political downfall. In a new INSA poll, his CDU/CSU alliance has dropped to just 19 percent for the first time, while the far-right AfD is well ahead at 29 percent. The Greens are at 15 percent, the SPD at 14 percent, and the Left Party at 10 percent. The FDP could narrowly clear the 5 percent threshold needed to enter parliament. The numbers are especially devastating for Merz personally: 82 percent of respondents are unhappy with his performance, and the same percentage are dissatisfied with the entire federal government. Back in January, 67 percent were unhappy with the chancellor. For 60 percent, their personal living situation has gotten worse under the CDU/CSU-SPD coalition government, while just 6 percent say things have improved. The poll surveyed 1,004 people on November 5 and 6, with a statistical margin of error of 2.9 percentage points.
