Nach ihrem Rücktritt als Arbeitsministerin und SPD-Co-Chefin bricht Bärbel Bas ihr Schweigen und rechnet mit der unerbittlichen Härte des Berliner Politikbetriebs ab. Ihre offenen Worte über fehlende Menschlichkeit, den Druck aus der Koalition und Enttäuschung über Friedrich Merz bergen neue Sprengkraft für die Koalition. Maximilian Stascheit beleuchtet, warum dieser Auftritt eine Debatte über den Umgang in der Politik, aber auch über Privilegien von Spitzenpolitikern entfacht. Die Welt blickt auf die Midterms in den USA, deren Ausgang nicht nur die Machtverhältnisse in Washington, sondern auch das Schicksal der Ukraine massiv beeinflussen wird. Europa-Experte Hans von der Burchard ordnet ein, welche Auswirkungen…
“Okay, the Democrats will be much more supportive of Ukraine and NATO, but they can’t direct Trump to do things,” he added. “They can approve money, but Trump just turns around and says, ‘Well, I don’t have to spend it.’” Volker predicts Trump will step up his use of pocket rescission, a contested legal theory for clawing back congressionally appropriated funds. “That has been the pattern on so many things, tariffs most notably,” said Volker. “But on lots of things, he’d prefer to run out the clock and fight in the courts.” The former ambassador said he’s unsure which way…
France saw a third straight weekend of protests on Saturday, 31 October, as young people and their supporters took to the streets over the rising cost of living, education and public services.

Earlier, students had denounced what they described as the government’s dismissive attitude towards young people and defended their right to protest peacefully. The French Interior Ministry estimated that 320,000 people…
Haley Stevens announced her support for Rogers on Sunday, abandoning Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, who defeated her in the party’s primary in August. The move follows a public feud between the two Democrats, fuelled by disagreements over Israel and an advert by an outside group linking US support for Israel to the rising cost of living. Stevens had demanded that El-Sayed condemn the advert, which she described as antisemitic. He said it was not produced by his campaign and rejected its message. The dispute escalated after El-Sayed’s campaign made clear that Stevens was not welcome at a joint campaign…
