The Supreme Court is expected to say whether full SNAP food payments can resume
SUMMARY: The U.S. Supreme Court is expected to announce whether the Trump administration must start complying with lower court orders that require full payments in the SNAP food program. The administration accepted a pair of earlier rulings that said it must provide at least partial benefits. But there has been an intense court battle underway since last week after a judge ruled that full funding was required. SNAP helps about 1 in 8 American buy groceries. For many of them, November's payments are already delayed. Resuming the program is a piece of the legislation adopted by the Senate and now headed to the House on to reopen the federal government. A high court decision is expected Tuesday.

After mistaken deportation, US asks judge to let it send Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Liberia
SUMMARY: U.S. government attorneys say they have cleared all the hurdles needed to send Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Liberia. The Salvadoran national's mistaken deportation to his home country in March helped galvanize opposition to President Donald Trump’s immigration policies. Abrego Garcia's attorneys claim the administration is now manipulating the immigration system in order to punish him, a violation of his due process rights. The government argues that his due process rights are minimal because he entered the country illegally. A federal judge in Maryland has temporarily blocked Abrego Garcia's deportation. The government is asking her to dissolve that order.

Arctic air hits much of the US, bringing snow to some areas and very chilly temperatures to Florida
SUMMARY: The eastern two-thirds of the United States is experiencing some of the coldest weather of the autumn season. Arctic air is affecting millions, with record low temperatures expected in the Southeast, including Florida. On Monday, gusty winds and red flag warnings hit the Midwest, while the Great Lakes and Appalachian regions could see significant snowfall. In Florida, wind chills might cause iguanas to fall from trees. Local governments across the South have opened heated shelters. Hazardous road conditions are affecting travel in Tennessee, Michigan, Indiana, and Wisconsin. Gardeners in the Midwest and Northeast are advised to protect plants as the growing season ends.

Deployment of West Virginia National Guard members in nation’s capital can continue, judge rules
SUMMARY: A West Virginia state judge has allowed the continued deployment of more than 300 West Virginia National Guard members to Washington, D.C. Kanawha County Circuit Judge Richard D. Lindsay made the ruling Monday after hearing arguments in a lawsuit by a civic organization. The group says Republican Gov. Patrick Morrisey exceeded his authority with the deployment. Morrisey’s office argues it is authorized under federal law. Trump issued an executive order in August declaring a crime emergency in Washington. Within a month, more than 2,300 Guard troops from eight states and the District of Columbia were patrolling. But the U.S. Justice Department says violent crime there is at a 30-year low.

Cleveland pitcher Luis Ortiz appears in court on allegations he took bribes to rig bets
SUMMARY: Cleveland Guardians pitcher Luis Ortiz has appeared in court on charges accusing him and teammate Emmanuel Clase of taking bribes to help associates in their native Dominican Republic win prop bets placed on pitches they threw. U.S. Magistrate Judge Donald Cabell in Boston granted Ortiz his release during Monday's hearing but with several conditions, including that he surrender his passport. According to prosecutors, the two hurlers took several thousand dollars in payoffs to help two unnamed gamblers in their home country win at least $460,000 on bets placed on the speed and outcome of certain pitches. Ortiz was arrested Sunday, while Clase wasn't immediately taken into custody. Lawyers for the pitchers say their clients are innocent.

Senate approves bill to end the shutdown, sending it to the House
SUMMARY: The Senate has passed legislation to reopen the government, bringing the longest shutdown in history closer to an end after a small group of Democrats struck a deal with Republicans. The shutdown could last a few more days as members of the House, which has been on recess since mid-September, return to Washington to vote on the legislation. President Donald Trump has signaled support for the bill, saying Monday that “we’re going to be opening up our country very quickly.” The final 60-40 Senate vote broke a grueling stalemate that lasted more than six weeks as Democrats demanded that Republicans negotiate with them to extend health care tax credits. The Republicans never did.

Supreme Court rejects call to overturn its decision legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide
SUMMARY: The Supreme Court has rejected a call to overturn its landmark decision that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. The justices on Monday turned away an appeal from a former Kentucky court clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples after the Supreme Court’s 2015 ruling. Clerk Kim Davis had been trying to get the justices to overturn a lower-court order that she pay $360,000 in damages and attorney’s fees. Justice Clarence Thomas has urged his colleagues to overturn the Supreme Court's marriage decision, much as they did in 2022 when the high court overturned the right to abortion.

Trump pardons Rudy Giuliani and others who backed efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss
SUMMARY: President Donald Trump has pardoned his former personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, onetime chief of staff Mark Meadows and others accused of backing the Republican’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Government pardon attorney Ed Martin posted on social media late Sunday a signed proclamation of the pardons. Others granted a “full, complete and unconditional pardon” include conservative attorneys Sidney Powell and John Eastman. The proclamation explicitly says the pardon does not apply to Trump. Presidential pardons apply only to federal crimes, and none of the Trump allies was charged in a federal case. While the pardons may have no immediate legal impact, experts warn they send a message to those who might interfere in future elections.

Trump hosts Syria's al-Sharaa for a first-of-its-kind meeting at the White House
SUMMARY: Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa has arrived at the White House for his meeting with President Donald Trump. Monday's meeting is the first visit by a Syrian head of state since the country gained independence in 1946. The meeting is closed to the press. The two men met in Saudi Arabia in May, when the U.S. eased sanctions on Syria. During al-Sharaa's visit to Washington, the U.S. and Syria are expected to formalize an agreement that invites Syria into a global coalition that fights the Islamic State group. Meanwhile, al-Sharaa is expected to push for a full repeal of sanctions imposed for human rights abuses by the former Assad government.

Supreme Court will decide whether states can count late-arriving mail ballots, a Trump target
SUMMARY: The Supreme Court has agreed to decide whether states can continue their practice of counting mail ballots that arrive after Election Day. This kind of ballot-counting is a target of President Donald Trump. The justices Monday took up an appeal from Mississippi. A lower court ruled last year a Mississippi law allowing such ballots to be counted violated federal law. Mississippi is among 18 states that accept ballots postmarked by Election Day. The case will be argued early next year. A ruling is expected early enough to apply to the 2026 midterm elections. A Nevada ballot receipt law also has been challenged. And the Supreme Court is considering reviving a lawsuit challenging Illinois’ law.

Trump's $1B lawsuit threat casts shadow over the BBC, but it could also be a bluff
SUMMARY: U.S. President Donald Trump’s threat to bring a billion-dollar lawsuit against the BBC has cast a shadow over the British broadcaster’s future, but it could also be a bluff with little legal merit. The president’s lawyer sent the threat to the BBC over the way a documentary edited his Jan. 6, 2021, speech before a mob of his followers stormed the U.S. Capitol. Trump faces fundamental challenges to getting a case to court, never mind taking it to trial. He would also have to deal with the harsh glare of publicity around his provocative pep talk the day Congress was voting to certify President-elect Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 election.

A suicide bomber targets an Islamabad court, killing 12 people and wounding 27, minister says
SUMMARY: A suicide bomber has attacked outside a district court in Islamabad, killing 12 people and injuring 27. The explosion occurred on Tuesday near a police car. A breakaway faction of the Pakistani Taliban initially claimed responsibility but later denied it. This attack highlights the ongoing struggles of the Pakistani government against a resurgent Taliban and border tensions. Meanwhile, Pakistani security forces foiled an attack at an army-run college in a northwestern province. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif condemned both attacks and called for swift justice. Tensions between Pakistan and Afghanistan remain high, with recent peace talks stalling.

After brutal torture and 2.5 years of captivity, Israeli-Russian researcher is grateful to survive
SUMMARY: Israeli-Russian researcher Elizabeth Tsurkov has been released after being kidnapped and tortured by an Iraqi militia for more than two years. She was abducted in March 2023 while studying social movements in Iraq. In an interview with The Associated Press, she says the Iranian-backed Kataib Hezbollah militia initially sought a ransom, but intensified the torture after discovering her Israeli identity. Tsurkov was released in September. Now she is recovering in Israel and aims to shed light on the militia's activities in her unique position as a Western survivor of Iraqi torture facilities.

A deadly car explosion in New Delhi is being investigated under an anti-terrorism law
SUMMARY: Indian police say they are investigating a deadly car explosion in New Delhi under an anti-terrorism law. They have not determined the cause of the blast near the historic Red Fort late Monday that killed at least eight people. Investigating the case under India's main anti-terrorism law allows broader powers to detain suspects. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is visiting Bhutan, says investigators would uncover the conspiracy and those responsible will be brough to justice. The explosion is believed to have originated from a vehicle stopped at a traffic signal. Police were trying to trace its owner. Major train stations were put on alert.

Air pollution levels surge in India's capital, sparking rare protests
SUMMARY: A thick layer of smog has enveloped India’s capital, New Delhi, as pollution levels surge, worsening a public health crisis. By Monday morning, the city’s air quality index stood at 344, considered “severe” and dangerous to breathe. New Delhi, home to over 30 million people, is one of the world’s most polluted areas. Pollution worsens each winter as farmers burn crop residue and cooler temperatures trap smoke. Authorities have banned construction and restricted diesel generators, but critics demand long-term solutions. Residents have taken to the streets, frustrated with political inaction and suffering from health issues.

Trump threatens to sue BBC over edited speech that sparked resignations by news bosses
SUMMARY: U.S. President Donald Trump has sent a letter to the BBC threatening legal action over the way a speech he made was edited in a documentary aired by the British broadcaster. The BBC’s top executive and its head of news both quit Sunday over accusations of bias and misleading editing. In the documentary, aired before the 2024 election, Trump's January 6, 2021, speech was edited to omit his call for peaceful protest. Trump has threatened legal action, claiming the edits misrepresented his words. BBC chairman Samir Shah apologized for the "error of judgment" and acknowledged the edits gave the impression of inciting violence. The broadcaster, known for its impartiality, is facing criticism from various political sides.

Lebanese authorities release son of late Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi on bail
SUMMARY: Lebanese authorities have released the son of late Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi on Monday after he paid a $900,000 bail, ending his 10-year detention for allegedly withholding information about a missing Lebanese cleric. One of Hannibal Gadhafi’s lawyers, Charbel Milad al-Khoury, told The Associated Press that Gadhafi was released Monday evening after necessary paperwork was finished. Two security officials, speaking on condition of anonymity in line with regulations, also confirmed that Gadhafi was set free. The release came days after Lebanese authorities lifted a travel ban and reduced the bail for Hannibal Gadhafi, paving the way for his release.

Shutdown leaves a mark on an already-struggling economy, from lost paychecks to canceled flights
SUMMARY: The longest federal government shutdown in U.S. history appears to be nearing an end, but not without leaving a mark on an already-struggling economy. About 1.25 million federal workers missed at least one or two paychecks. Thousands of flights have been canceled. Government contract awards have slowed and some food aid recipients have seen their benefits interrupted. Most of the lost economic activity will be recovered when the government reopens, as federal workers receive back pay. But some canceled flights won’t be retaken, missed restaurant meals won’t be made up, and some postponed purchases by workers will not happen at all.

The FDA removes a long-standing warning from hormone-based menopause drugs
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration says it will remove a long-standing warning from hormone-based drugs used to treat menopause symptoms in women. The change announced Monday is a break from more than 20 years of FDA policy, in which the drugs carried the agency’s most severe warning label. But FDA Commissioner Marty Makary and some other doctors have long criticized the current warning label as outdated and unnecessary. They say it discourages some women from seeking treatment that can help with hot flashes, vaginal dryness and other uncomfortable symptoms. Other experts have said the warning carries important information about risks of stroke, heart attack and breast cancer.

MLB, sportsbooks cap bets on individual pitches in response to pitch-rigging scandal
SUMMARY: Major League Baseball said its authorized gaming operators will cap bets on individual pitches at $200 and exclude them from parlays, a day after two Cleveland Guardians players were indicted and accused of rigging pitches at the behest of gamblers. MLB said Monday the limits were agreed to by sportsbook operators representing more than 98% of the U.S. betting market. The league said in a statement that pitch-level bets on outcomes of pitch velocity and of balls and strikes “present heightened integrity risks because they focus on one-off events that can be determined by a single player and can be inconsequential to the outcome of the game.”
