Armed federal agents from the Department of Homeland Security have been knocking on doors in several states to ask residents about their immigration status and whether they are registered to vote. The operation aims to root out potential noncitizen voters ahead of the midterms. DHS alleges up to two hundred fifty thousand citizens may be illegally registered, a figure disputed by election experts. Since the beginning of the Trump administration, only one hundred fifty‑six people have been charged with voting‑fraud offenses. Critics say the door‑knocking could intimidate lawful voters. The Justice Department announced that Homeland Security agents in California arrested more than twenty people, all green‑card holders, on allegations of illegal registration or voting. A 72‑year‑old man from Belize was taken from his home in pajamas and charged with voting illegally in the past four elections.

Brandon Woodruff, the Brewers’ two‑time All‑Star, threw twenty‑three live pitches to the team’s A‑team lineup at American Family Field, clocking a fastball in the ninety‑to‑ninety‑two mph range. He said he only faced live hitters once and that the World Series starts in three days. The Brewers are still deciding whether to include him on the postseason roster, with president of baseball operations Matt Arnold noting the team is still working through meetings. MLB rules allow teams to replace a player who suffers a non‑chronic injury during the postseason, a factor the Brewers are considering.
