BIG: Pakistan’s PM Shehbaz Sharif: The shared waters of the Indus River system are the lifeblood not only for the people of Pakistan but for the entire region. Any attempt to stop, impede, or divert Pakistan's share of the waters will be treated as an act of war. India must make no mistake about it.

Charlie Cook: While many have long predicted that Democrats will enjoy a “blue wave” election, I think of it more as a “red undertow,” which will pull many Republicans under and significantly trim the margins for many others. A blue wave implies an endorsement or affirmation of Democrats and their policies. But Democrats' brand is still in tatters from 2021-2025, particularly 2021 and 2022, when they not only had President Biden in the White House but also majorities in the Senate and House. Fortunately for Democrats, this election will in most cases not be about them. It will, of course, be mostly about the occupant of the White House. Over the last 90 days, President Trump’s political standing has transitioned from very unpopular to toxic and now to radioactive. cookpolitical.com/analysis/n…
