Ilan Omar, fun raises off the feds rating her house, Kimberly Gilfoyle resigns after being asked to by Trump, and German police investigate a bizarre case where an AI-powered robot assaulted a woman. I'm Daily Wire executive editor John Bickley with Georgia Howell. It's Tuesday, October 13th. This is Evening Wire. President Trump's new press secretary, Katie Zachariah, took to the podium for the first time today. She replaces Caroline Levitt, who left the role in August to spend more time with family. Zachariah kept her inaugural briefing short, speaking to reporters for about 15 minutes before she left the stage. But before she left to join the president on his trip to Alaska, she was asked about any guidance she received from Levitt before taking the role. Here's what that sounded like. Yes, Caroline has been an incredible support. She gave me great and wonderful feedback on how to balance. I think this job is not one you necessarily balance, and I would love to share that in my career, I stayed home with my kids from 2014 to 2020 in the process of having them. And then when I started working again, I was able to integrate them into my life. There are many photos of which are not public. The kids and I at Fox Bureau, where they are sitting with me in the pod before I hit. So I intend to, to the extent possible, include my family, include my kids in my work. Though my work will be demanding, they will always be a priority. And I president Trump is the most family-friendly president we've ever had. He has hired more women with families. And the fact that he knew I had four kids, and he knew that this job would be demanding and still places trust in me shows that I know I'm capable of being able to step up to that. So thank you for that question. Congresswoman Ilan Omar is fundraising off the federal investigation into her immigration history, dealer wire contributor Tim Pierce says more.

Pope Leo XIV is preparing to undergo a lung operation after doctors discovered an abnormal growth during a recent medical examination. The Vatican says the 71-year-old Pope is expected to spend about a week recovering, though it is not disclosed whether doctors suspect cancer. Medical experts say lung nodules can be either benign or malignant and removing one can help determine what it is. The procedure may force Leo to miss a Wednesday mask, concluding a conference on family ministry. He also has scheduled trips to Uruguay, Argentina, and Peru next month, and has not indicated whether he plans to cancel them. Leo shared the news personally during his Sunday appearance at the Vatican and asked the faithful to keep him in their prayers.

Metallica frontman James Hetfield is pushing back against musicians who use concerts to promote political causes, telling fans the band wants to offer an escape from the issues dividing the country. During a show at the Las Vegas Sphere on Saturday, Hetfield thanked fans for traveling to see the band before criticizing entertainers who used the stage to influence audiences. He said, quote, Metallica's agenda is love, energy, and heavy music baby. His comments come from a backlash over rapper Michael Moore's removal from Ed Sheeran's tour following his pro-Palestine statements and performances, which led to a broader dispute among musicians and venues. And an unorthodox sexual assault case in Germany has opened up novel legal questions. As in this case, the assailant was a semi-autonomous robot, associate producer or Garrett Fan team as a story. Police in Cologne, Germany, have impounded the Chinese-made humanoid robot after it allegedly approached a teenage girl, grabbed her in inappropriate places, and made repeated thrusting motions against her. The German legal system now finds itself in a judicial grey zone as the question remains open whether the robot was acting autonomously or not. A 16-year-old live streamer, the owner of the robot, was questioned by police, but it remains unclear if he was in direct control of the machine at the time. According to the manufacturer, the robot can be directly controlled by a human, but can also acts semi-autonomously, reacting to its environment in ways that can be unpredictable. As AI and autonomous robots become more commonplace, this case could be among the first of many to force a re-evaluation of liability law.
