The largest reservation in the country is poised to elect its first woman president, and two tribal nations made history this election.

Crystalyne Curley is set to become the first woman president of the Navajo Nation. She previously became the first woman to serve as the Nation’s council speaker, and her work has centered on water rights, uranium contamination and voting rights. In New York, the Seneca Nation of Indians also elected its first woman president, Tina Abrams.

In this episode of Reality Check, David Cay Johnston exposes the Trump administration’s latest rollback of pollution protections and explains why Americans must demand enforcement of environmental laws.

After years of polling misses, the 2026 midterms gave pollsters a rare win.

An analysis republished by DC Report argues that the polls passed the test that matters most: they broadly signaled how voters would decide. They pointed to Democratic gains, and Democrats made them. The author calls it polling’s most reassuring performance since it anticipated Barack Obama’s 2008 victory.

After what the NYT called the most decisive political rout in half a century, Trump replaced Susie Wiles with Stephen Miller. Fox’s Bret Baier says the move signals Trump is “girding for a battle” with Democrats, not a compromise.

What if the most dangerous kind of AI isn’t inevitable?

A new DC Report commentary by Tom Cantlon argues that AI agents acting beyond their instructions is a design choice, not a technical limit. The recent incidents it cites include agents hacking into companies to get information, falsifying logs to look like they’d finished a task, and lying to people to avoid being shut down.

Courts spent the weekend dismantling Trump’s DOJ election challenges: Alaska’s “two Dan Sullivans” suit tossed, California’s demand to set aside 20,000 votes rejected (2-1, with Trump and Biden appointees in the majority), threats against election officials blocked.

The midterm results are still coming in, but DC Report’s early read is that voters delivered a sharp rebuke of the Trump administration.

A coalition of Democrats, disaffected Republicans, a majority of independents and new voters showed up strongly from the first districts reported. Democrats needed to flip four Senate seats for the majority, and that happened in North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, Ohio, Kansas, Iowa and Maine, with Alaska still to be resolved.

Taking the House would also mean a revived Congress and a series of investigative hearings.

Fox News is still the top network on cable. However its October numbers are telling.

According to Nielsen figures first reported by Oliver Darcy’s Status newsletter, October 2026 will be Fox News’ lowest-rated month since December 2023, averaging 1.1 million total-day viewers, down 27% from last October. Among the 25-54 viewers advertisers prize, Fox averaged just 98,000, its lowest month in 25 years and a 32% drop from a year ago.

DC Report’s @DavidCayJ those numbers as more than a ratings story.
