Israel's UN ambassador Danny Danon offers Starlink to Iran envoy amid UNGA session
Israel's UN ambassador Danny Danon offered Starlink internet service to Iran's representative Nasser Asadi at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) on Thursday.
Sharing the video on his X handle, Danon said, “I thought it appropriate to give you the Starlink. If you heard the Prime Minister, you would understand it could be very useful for you to allow the Iranian people to get their freedom after what you did to them. Do you want to take it and deliver it back to Tehran?"
"It could be very useful for you in Iran. We love the Iranian people, and we pray for the regime change there,” he said.
Watch the video here:
Iranian representative, identified as Nasser Asadi in reports, was seen ignoring him and looking away without engaging in a conversation or giving a reply.
Danon posted the video on his X handle with the caption “The Iranian representative didn't want the starlink :(”.
Earlier this year, Iran had the longest and most intense internet shutdowns in history, for nearly three months. Heavy restrictions were imposed on January 8 and were eased on January 23 before being reinstated again on February 28 when US and Israel attacked the country. The internet connectivity reportedly started coming back in May.

Pair arrested after emerging from manhole near hotel where Netanyahu stays, police say
A citywide manhunt led to the arrest of two suspects who New York City police say emerged from a manhole just outside a hotel where Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu regularly stays during the UN General Assembly.
The suspects’ trip into New York’s underground predawn Wednesday appears to have nothing to do with targeting the hotel, where Netanyahu was expected to stay the next day, police said. It’s instead part of a citywide crime pattern of individuals going into the sewers, looking for valuables and scrap metal that are swept into the system, police said.
Two Queens men, Kevin Rodriguez, 26, and Samuel Reveron, 25, were charged with criminal trespass. They were released on Friday morning after an arraignment in Manhattan criminal court.
Brian Kennedy, an attorney for Reveron, denied any connection between his client’s alleged conduct and the United Nations or any international government officials. It’s “entirely plausible” that someone might go into the sewers looking for valuables, Kennedy told CNN. “Desperation leads to great efforts.”
CNN has reached out to Rodriguez’s attorney for comment.
Because of the heightened security around the UN General Assembly and the proximity of the underground incursion to a highly sensitive location, authorities prioritized identifying the individuals and determining why they were beneath the hotel in the pipes and tunnels of the city’s sewer system.
The NYPD and US Secret Service reviewed videos, license plate readers and other tools to try and identify the intruders, officials said.
The investigation involved the use of a combination of modern police technology and old-fashioned shoe leather, according to law enforcement officials.
Detectives pulled video from the major case unit going door-to-door along Park Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, where witnesses said three men were seen getting into a pair of vehicles just after 4 a.m.
When a picture of the license plate of one of the cars was developed, it was entered into the NYPD license plate reader system. The system gave detectives a pattern of the car’s travels, including when it arrived and when it departed the Park Avenue location. It also allowed detectives to learn the registered owner and to pull body cam video of him from prior car stops for traffic violations.
Detectives went to the location where the vehicle was registered and staked out the car until the suspect approached the vehicle and was taken into custody. It is not clear whether the two suspects were arrested together or separately. Additional suspects are being sought.
The arrests fit into a pattern of incursions into the city’s sewer and underground tunnels over the past few months, where citizens have taken cell phone video of people going into manhole covers or coming out of them during predawn hours wearing hip waders and boots. Detectives say in a number of cases where arrests were made the suspects made statements that they were just looking for valuables, including gold chains, rings, or other metals such as copper that can be resold.
In the end, a case that set off alarm bells to the NYPD and the US Secret Service about national security, and the potential for foreign agents or terrorists, ended with some high-end detective work leading to an unglamorous motive.

CNN Whines About Being Replaced by Real America’s Voice and LindellTV on Air Force One Trip
The White House has removed CNN’s access to Air Force One for President Donald Trump’s Saturday flight to Knoxville, where he is scheduled to attend Tennessee-Texas, and replaced it with Real America’s Voice and Lindell TV.
CNN White House correspondent Alayna Treene announced the replacement during an appearance on the network with Anderson Cooper and was not very pleased with the change.
The liberal network was originally scheduled for the television pool rotation that day, the slot networks use to shoot video that other outlets are free to air.
Friday night’s White House guidance left CNN off the plane.
“The White House is now preventing CNN from carrying out their TV duties,” she said. “It’s unclear what’s going to happen to [the pool coverage] now.”
“We did hear our outside lawyer representing CNN, Politico, and MS NOW say earlier today that he believed the restoration of the outlet’s access included the White House pool, but clearly this White House is keeping us from doing so,” Treene continued.
“We know that they are definitely singling us out here.”
CNN later wrote that “no outlet” was listed as a replacement, taking a clear shot at Real America’s Voice and Lindell TV.
“The move — announced Friday night in a White House note that lays out the president’s schedule — represents the Trump administration’s latest salvo against CNN and the broader White House press corps. No outlet was listed as replacing CNN, meaning there will be no television pool coverage of his trip,” CNN claimed.
Last week, Trump banned CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from the White House complex, accusing them of “FICTION and LIES.”

KARMA POURS AGAIN: Anti-Trump Wisconsin Brewery That Promised Free Beer the Day President Trump Dies Now Says Its Madison Taproom Will Likely Close
The far-left Wisconsin brewery that spent years marketing itself as a celebration of President Donald Trump’s death is watching the tap run dry.
Minocqua Brewing Company owner Kirk Bangstad now says his Madison taproom will likely shut its doors by the end of the year after the Wisconsin Department of Revenue revoked the company’s alcohol permits, according to Fox News.
Madison station Channel 3000 first reported Bangstad’s admission that the East Washington Avenue lease expires at year’s end and that he cannot carry the rent through a winter legal fight. He owns the Minocqua building and says that location can limp through the off-season. Madison, he says, cannot.
The brewery has said the state is targeting it because of its political views.
The dispute follows state allegations that beer transported from Illinois was brought into Wisconsin without required permits and tax payments.
The brewery disputes the state’s action. Wisconsin’s Department of Revenue told Fox News that an appeal hearing is scheduled for November 18 and the revocation will not take effect until the appeals process is complete.
The controversy began in January, when the brewery posted that it would serve “free beer, all day long the day he dies,” a remark widely understood to refer to Trump.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Bangstad posted on the company’s Facebook page (his Facebook post has now been deleted) to share his outrage that the latest attempt on President Trump’s life didn’t succeed.
He even dusted off the company’s disgusting “free beer all day the day he dies” promotion, with posts reportedly lamenting “we almost got #freebeerdays” and mocking the “marksmanship” of whoever tried to take out the President of the United States.
But that’s just the surface of Bangstad’s insane liberal activities. He previously founded the Minocqua Brewing Company Super PAC and has poured millions into electing Democratic politicians, judges, and liberal causes across the state.
He also personally sued to keep Trump off the Wisconsin ballot in 2023 and 2024, filing complaints with the Wisconsin Elections Commission and dragging the case into court in a desperate attempt to disenfranchise millions of Wisconsin voters.
In June, state agents and local police inspected the brewery and seized cases of alcohol. The state said it had been discussing compliance concerns with the company and its legal counsel for months.
In July, TGP reported that Wisconsin had issued notices revoking permits for the brewery’s Minocqua and Madison locations, while the company could continue operating during its appeal.

Starbucks to Close Down Hundreds of Underperforming Locations
Starbucks said Thursday it will close about 250 locations in North America later this week.
The Seattle-based chain called the move a “difficult decision” after reviewing stores that it says cannot deliver the experience it wants or a path to acceptable financial results, according to a report from Fox Business.
The closures amount to about 1 percent of more than 18,000 North American locations.
“Closing any coffeehouse is a difficult decision, and we know today’s news will be hard for the partners, customers and communities affected,” Starbucks COO Mike Grams said in a statement.
Grams also framed the store cuts as ordinary portfolio management.
“Every year we close some coffeehouses and open others,” Grams said.
The company did not publish a list of addresses and is contacting workers at the affected stores directly.

The announcement landed days after Starbucks resolved a Florida DEI lawsuit that Attorney General James Uthmeier filed in December 2025. His office accused the coffee giant of violating the Florida Civil Rights Act by using race and sex-based goals, quotas, and preferences in hiring, promotions, pay, executive compensation, mentorship programs, supplier selection, and board makeup.

MASSIVE WIN: Florida just FORCED Starbucks to CAVE on their race- and gender-based DEI hiring goals. The company is paying $1M and agreeing to drop their ILLEGAL quotas and preferences.
Fox News’ Aishah Hasnie: “That agreement, by the way, applies to all Starbucks locations nationwide.”
HUGE!

Indiana High School Sports Board Hit with Lawsuit by AG for Reserving Seats for People Who Are Not White
Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita sued the Indiana High School Athletic Association this week to kill a bylaw that locks two of 19 board seats for people the association calls “qualified minorities.”
The bylaws define that phrase as “an individual other than a white male or female.”
Nominating petitions for those seats have to verify the candidate’s race.
The rule, in various forms, has been in place since 1993. The current wording was first introduced in the 2001-02 bylaws.
“Hoosier students should not be governed by a sports association that picks its leaders based on race,” Rokita said in a statement announcing the lawsuit.
“IHSAA’s quota tells kids that skin color, rather than merit, is an appropriate way to judge people. That lesson has no place in Indiana’s education system, and, regardless, the law does not permit it. The IHSAA exists to build character. A racial litmus test for choosing leadership on the IHSAA’s board does the opposite, and after months of delay, the Association left us no choice but to take legal action.”
The suit, filed in Marion County Superior Court, asks for a permanent injunction stripping the racial seats from the bylaws, a ban on any future race-based allocation of board seats, and a declaration that the quota violates Indiana law.
The complaint calls it an “overt racial classification” and an “express racial classification” that is “an abuse of authority conferred by law, a waste of corporate assets, and incompatible with the public purpose for which IHSAA was organized.”
White men and white women are closed out of those two seats “solely because of race.”
Rokita’s office first told the association to drop the quota in April.
IHSAA said it disagreed and would look at bylaw changes in May 2027.
After more letters and an August 25 executive committee meeting that changed nothing, the state sued.
The Pacific Legal Foundation and the Equal Protection Project had already written the association last year demanding the race and sex screens come out.
William A. Jacobson of the Equal Protection Project told Fox News, “We hope that IHSAA will do the right thing and voluntarily remedy the discriminatory bylaws provisions, but if it does not, all legal options are on the table.”
IHSAA responded that it “disagrees with any suggestion that our bylaws violate federal and state civil rights laws or in any way constitute an abuse of its nonprofit status.”
“To the contrary, the IHSAA is committed to serving all student-athletes and member schools throughout Indiana. Consistent with that mission, we value broad representation and diverse perspectives among those who help guide and support interscholastic athletics across the state.”
