1: Nicki Minaj Joins Trump on Air Force One as White House Floats Her as Next Press Secretary
A mock job interview on the plane went viral, and Minaj told the president onstage, “If you run again, I will support you again”
Nicki Minaj rode Air Force One with President Donald Trump to his Sunday rally in Michigan, and a mock interview on board had the White House joking about a new hire. “Ladies and gentlemen, I think we may have found the new White House Press Secretary!” Communications Director Steven Cheung posted. Minaj then took the stage in Port Huron with a promise for the president.
Why It Matters to You: Michigan’s Senate race could decide control of the Senate, and both parties are fighting for voters who don’t follow politics closely. A star like Minaj can reach audiences that cable news never touches. READ MORE
2: Melania Trump Brokers Ceasefire in Russian-Occupied Ukrainian City to Get Aid to Trapped Civilians
The first lady says Oleshky is “on the brink of disaster,” and both Russia and Ukraine have agreed to pause fighting there
First Lady Melania Trump says she secured a localized ceasefire in Oleshky, a front-line city in southern Ukraine, so humanitarian aid can get in and civilians can get out. “The situation in Oleshky is dire,” she said. Russian and Ukrainian officials have confirmed the pause, though they differ on exactly when it begins.
Why It Matters to You: The war has dragged on for more than four and a half years and cost American taxpayers billions in aid. A successful humanitarian pause could save lives and show that U.S.-led diplomacy can deliver results. READ MORE
3: Trump Announces Audi’s First U.S. Factory, a $4.2 Billion Plant in Georgia
The Macon-area plant will build Audi’s biggest SUVs, and Georgia officials expect about 4,500 jobs
President Donald Trump took the stage in Perry, Georgia, Saturday night with a major announcement for the state. “Audi has just committed to invest $4.2 billion in nearby Macon, Georgia,” Trump said. Audi’s CEO joined him to explain what the plant will build, and Trump says construction could start as soon as next month.
Why It Matters to You: New factories mean paychecks, local tax revenue and less reliance on cars built overseas. The announcement is a test of whether Trump’s push to bring manufacturing home is paying off for American workers. READ MORE

Obama urged Michigan voters to “flip that circuit breaker,” while Trump told them to “VOTE FOR MIKE ROGERS!”
Former President Barack Obama packed a Detroit high school Saturday night to rally for Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed. He told the crowd that attacks on El-Sayed’s faith are a movie he has “seen before.” President Donald Trump answered Sunday morning on Truth Social, hours before his own rally in Michigan.
Why It Matters to You: Michigan’s open Senate seat could decide which party controls the Senate. The outcome will shape everything from border policy to the judges confirmed for the rest of Trump’s term. READ MORE
5: Karoline Leavitt Tells Bill Maher Katie Zacharia “Wasn’t a Good Fit,” Says Trump Is “Far More Sane” Than His Predecessor
The former press secretary pointed to Trump’s Apprentice days and told Maher, “We had a mental patient”
Karoline Leavitt went on HBO’s Real Time Friday night and stood by President Donald Trump’s quick decision to push out Katie Zacharia after less than a week as press secretary. “As the president said, it wasn’t a good fit, and that’s okay,” Leavitt said. When Bill Maher pressed her on Trump’s temperament, she fired right back.
Why It Matters to You: The press secretary is the public’s most direct window into the White House. With the midterms less than two weeks away, who speaks for the president matters. READ MORE
