Trump Midterm Campaigning, Rep. Omar Home Searched, Europe Pushes Back on Russia Deal
Summary
President Trump is holding midterm rallies that resemble his own presidential campaigns, overshadowing GOP candidates despite his claim that he is effectively on the ballot. Meanwhile, federal agents searched Rep. Ilhan Omar’s home, a move she calls political targeting, just weeks before the election. In Europe, allies are alarmed by Trump’s push for a Ukraine ceasefire and a deal to buy Russian diesel, prompting the EU to impose its largest sanctions package yet.
