Summary

President Trump promised $5,000 to voters if Republicans win midterms, a plan experts call illegal and fiscally impossible. Markets fell as oil prices topped $100, while inflation and rising mortgage rates continue to hurt home sales. In Israel, polls show a statistical tie between Netanyahu and challenger Eisenkott ahead of elections. Jimmy Kimmel announced he will air a controversial interview on YouTube due to FCC pressure, and the British Museum debuted the Bayeux Tapestry for the first time in over 900 years.
