Biden’s approval rating is slightly lower than former President Donald Trump’s approval rating at the same stage in 2018 when his party lost control of the House of Representatives. The president’s approval rating was 41.8 percent as of October 25, according to analysis from poll tracker FiveThirtyEight, while his disapproval rating stood at 53.4 percent. The midterm elections are set for November 8, but Biden’s approval rating is likely to be only one factor in voters’ intentions as Americans remain concerned about inflation, abortion rights, the war in Ukraine and other matters....

Senators passed the Ukraine Democracy Defense Lend-Lease Act of 2022 that will grant President Joe Biden more authority to provide the Ukrainian government with defensive equipment and allow him to overcome bureaucratic barriers.

He checked out as a solid rim protector who could do a little bit of everything on offense, which gave the Knicks something unique to build around for the future. While they haven’t yet surrounded him with the young talent you’d expect to see for a player of his caliber, he’s been significantly better in his sophomore season by bumping his numbers to 19....

He’s never quite managed to finish a season with at least a goal-a-game like Ronaldo and Messi have done over the last decade, though he has been close....
