Maryland sues Trump administration over location of FBI headquarters

November 6, 2025

Maryland officials have announced a federal lawsuit against the Trump administration for blocking the construction of a new FBI headquarters in the state just outside the nation’s capital. Gov. Wes Moore joined other Maryland officials on Thursday in Prince George’s County near Washington to criticize the plan to move the FBI’s headquarters several blocks away from its current home in the nation’s capital, instead of to Maryland, which had been selected by the Biden administration. The FBI announced this summer that it would move its headquarters to the Ronald Reagan Building complex, after a yearslong battle over the location.

Trump administration speeds up new rules that would make it easier to charge some protesters

November 6, 2025

The Trump administration is speeding up new rules for the Federal Protective Service, giving it more authority to charge people for offenses on or off federal properties. These changes, initially set for next year, took effect on Wednesday. The administration cites a “recent surge in violence” as the reason for the early implementation. Protests against President Trump’s deportation policies have increased, especially near immigration enforcement buildings. Critics argue the new rules could target protesters. The Federal Protective Service can now make arrests for actions near federal properties and regulate unauthorized drone use and digital tampering.

Nebraska prison reopens as federal immigration center, aims for 200 detainees by Thanksgiving

November 6, 2025

A new federal immigration detention center in rural in southwest Nebraska has begun housing immigration detainees. Gov. Jim Pillen announced the development Thursday, saying the former minimum-security state prison in McCook is currently housing between 50 and 60 detainees. Pillen says the facility, which can hold 200 people, is expected to reach capacity by Thanksgiving. Work is set to begin on a second phase to expand capacity to 300. Local officials and residents were surprised by Pillen’s decision in August to turn the prison over for federal immigration use. Some residents have sued, arguing that only the Legislature can control or repurpose state prisons.

Man who threw sandwich at federal agent in Washington is found not guilty of assault charge

November 6, 2025

A former Justice Department employee who threw a sandwich at a federal agent during President Donald Trump’s law enforcement surge in Washington has been found not guilty of assault. A viral video of the sandwich tossing made Sean Charles Dunn a symbol of resistance to Trump’s deployment of federal agents to combat crime in the nation’s capital. Dunn’s misdemeanor acquittal is another setback for prosecutors, who have faced a backlash for how they have handled criminal cases resulting from the law enforcement surge. Dunn’s lawyers argued it was a “harmless gesture” during an act of protest protected by the First Amendment.

Kazakhstan will join the Abraham Accords with Israel in symbolic move to boost the Trump initiative

November 6, 2025

Kazakhstan will join the Abraham Accords between Israel and Arab and Muslim majority countries in a move aimed at boosting the initiative that was a hallmark of President Donald Trump’s first administration. That’s according to three U.S. officials. The move is largely symbolic as Kazakhstan has had diplomatic relations with Israel since 1992 and is much farther geographically from Israel than the other Abraham Accord nations — Bahrain, Morocco, Sudan and the United Arab Emirates. Those countries agreed to normalize relations with Israel as a result. The U.S. officials say Trump will announce the step at a summit he’s hosting Thursday with the leaders of the five Central Asian nations, including Kazakhstan.

Northern lights may be visible in parts of the US due to solar storms

November 6, 2025

Space forecasters say solar storms may bring colorful auroras to several northern U.S. states. The sun burped out a huge burst of energy called a coronal mass ejection that’s currently on its way to Earth. Once it gets here, it could cause colorful light displays Thursday night, though that depends on the timing and orientation of its arrival. Authorities are monitoring the situation, but do not anticipate major disruptions to radio or communications. The sun is at the maximum phase of its 11-year activity cycle, making the light displays more common and widespread.

What to know about 10% reduction in flights at U.S. airports caused by the government shutdown

November 6, 2025

Major U.S. airports are among those facing 10% reductions in air traffic Friday due to the government shutdown. A list distributed to airlines and obtained by The Associated Press includes airports in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles among the 40 that will see flights slashed. The Federal Aviation Administration is imposing the reductions to take pressure off air traffic controllers, who are federal employees and have gone without pay during the shutdown. In addition to the reduced flight traffic, the shutdown has led to more flight delays, with experts advising travelers to check flight statuses before heading to the airport, among other tips.

National Retail Federation : holiday sales to increase 3.7% to 4.2% despite concerns over inflation

November 6, 2025

American shoppers are expected to spend more during the holiday shopping season this year, but the nation’s largest retail trade group believes sales growth may slow due to uncertainly over tariffs and the overall economy. The 2025 forecast from the National Retail Federation on Thursday estimates that shoppers will make $1.01 trillion to $1.02 trillion worth of purchases in November and December, which would represent anywhere from a 3.7% to 4.2% increase over the same two-month period a year ago.However, holiday spending was up 4.3% during last year’s holiday period compared with 2023.

All roads in ancient Rome stretched far longer than previously known, study shows

November 6, 2025

As the saying went, all roads once led to Rome — and scientists now say those roads stretched 50% longer than previously known. A new study combines information from historical records, ancient journals, locations of milestones and other archival data with newly available satellite imagery to map all known roads in the ancient Roman Empire. Researchers say these feats of Roman engineering still shape the geography and economy of the Mediterranean region and beyond. The new dataset and digital map are available online for scholars, history teachers and people with an interest in ancient Roman history. Results were published Thursday in Scientific Data.

November 6, 2025

Thirty years after the death of Tejano music legend Selena Quintanilla-Pérez, the Grammy Museum has announced it is launching a special pop-up exhibit celebrating the Latin music icon. “Selena: From Texas to the World” runs from Jan. 15 to March 16 at the museum in Los Angeles. The exhibit was curated in collaboration with Suzette Quintanilla, Selena’s sister, and will display personal artifacts from the Selena Museum in Corpus Christi, Texas. This will mark the first time these items have been shown outside of Texas. Known as Selena, the singer blended Tejano, pop, cumbia and other musical styles. She was 23 when she was killed by her fan club’s president in 1995.

LGBTQ+ representation on primetime TV grows thanks to shows like ‘Abbott Elementary’ and ‘Hacks’

November 6, 2025

A new study by GLAAD shows a 4% increase in LGBTQ characters on primetime TV, thanks to shows like “Abbott Elementary” and “The Last of Us.” This year’s “Where We Are on TV” study counted 489 LGBTQ characters, up by 21 from last year. However, the number remains below the 2021-2022 record of 775. GLAAD warns that cancellations might soon decrease these numbers. The report also notes a slight increase in transgender characters, now at 33. GLAAD aims for 20% LGBTQ representation on all platforms by 2025, with half being people of color.

High-kicking Radio City Rockettes mark 100 years with Christmas Spectacular

November 6, 2025

A high-kicking staple of the New York City holiday season is marking a century of wowing crowds: the iconic Radio City Rockettes are turning 100. The famed dance troupe is opening its annual Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall in Manhattan starting Nov. 6. The show dates to 1933 but the troupe itself traces its roots to the founding of the “Missouri Rockets” in St. Louis in 1925. The dance troupe was eventually moved to New York’s Radio City Music Hall. Over the decades, they’ve become a cultural touchstone in New York and nationally.

Explosion at Mississippi chemical plant causes ammonia leak, evacuations

November 5, 2025

Officials say an explosion at a hydrogen and nitrogen product manufacturer in Mississippi has caused an ammonia leak and forced nearby residents to evacuate. Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves said in a post on X that emergency officials from across the state were responding to the anhydrous ammonia leak at CF Industries’ plant north of Yazoo City on Wednesday. He says no deaths or injuries have been reported. Anhydrous ammonia is used as a fertilizer to help provide nitrogen for corn and wheat plants. If a person touches it when it is in gas or liquid form, they could be burned.

Native American boarding schools in the US, by the numbers

November 5, 2025

For much of the 19th and 20th centuries, the United States government and Christian denominations operated boarding schools where generations of Native American children were isolated from their families. Along with academics and hard work, the schools sought to erase elements of tribal identity, from language and clothing to hairstyles and even their names. The Carlisle Indian Industrial School in Pennsylvania, where the remains of 17 students were exhumed and repatriated in recent weeks, served as a model for other schools.

The Washington D.C. National Guard will be deployed to the nation’s capital through the end of February, according to formal orders reviewed by The Associated Press. The Nov. 4 order extends the original order from August and says Guard members will be in the city at least through Feb. 28. It states the additional duty is in response to President Donald Trump’s emergency order in August under directions from the “Secretary of War to protect federal property and functions in the District of Columbia and to support federal and District law enforcement.” Hundreds of guard members remain in the city, patrolling public spaces and performing quality of life duties, including trash cleanup.

FBI names third man accused of planning Halloween terror attack in Michigan

November 5, 2025

The FBI has announced Wednesday a third man has been arrested and accused of planning a Halloween terror attack in Michigan. 19-year-old Ayob Nasser was arrested Wednesday. He and his brother Mohmed Ali and Majed Mahmoud are facing charges of providing material support and resources to a designated terrorist organization, and receiving and transferring guns and ammunition for terrorism, according to court documents. Ali and Mahmoud were arrested Friday. Investigators say the men were inspired by the Islamic State and had scouted LGBTQ+ bars and an amusement park as possible locations of an attack. According to court documents, the men used the word “pumpkin” to reference a possible Halloween attack.

November 5, 2025

Witnesses say a Chicago day care employee was detained at work during a drop-off time for children, reflecting the Trump administration’s increasingly aggressive enforcement tactics. Alderman Matt Martin says the employee ran from a vehicle inside the Rayito de Sol Spanish Immersion Early Learning Center on Wednesday morning after being trailed by officers to work. It was unusual even under “Operation Midway Blitz,” which has prompted more than 3,000 Chicago area immigration arrests since early September. Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin posted online that ICE agents didn’t target a day care but had tried to stop a vehicle when the driver refused to pull over.

November 5, 2025

A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit challenging the deportation of a Brown Medicine physician. Dr. Rasha Alawieh, a kidney transplant specialist, was deported in March despite having a visa. Homeland Security officials say they found photos of Hezbollah fighters on her phone. Alawieh claims she was only interested in the spiritual beliefs of a Hezbollah leader whose funeral she attended. Her case gained national attention, but U.S. District Judge Leo Sorokin ruled he didn’t have the authority to provide the relief she sought in her lawsuit. He cited a U.S. Supreme Court decision limiting court intervention in fast-track deportations.

First civil trial over 737 Max crash in Ethiopia begins, as Boeing settles three more lawsuits

November 5, 2025

The first civil trial over the Boeing 737 Max crash in Ethiopia is underway. A federal court jury in Chicago is being asked to decide how much Boeing must pay to the family of one of the 157 victims killed in the March 2019 crash. The trial started Wednesday after one of two cases set to go before the jury was settled outside of court. Boeing has already accepted responsibility for the crash and has settled most wrongful death lawsuits. The trial centers on the death of Shikha Garg, a newlywed from India who worked as a United Nations consultant. Boeing says it remains “deeply sorry” and pledges to compensate families.

Top Trump administration officials have briefed lawmakers on the growing U.S. campaign to destroy alleged drug-smuggling boats in the waters off South America. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth met Wednesday with a small bipartisan group of lawmakers in a secure facility in the Capitol. They provided them with one of the first high-level glimpses into the legal rationale and strategy behind the strikes. Republicans emerged from the briefing either staying silent or expressing confidence in President Donald Trump’s campaign. Democrats said Congress needs more information on how the strikes are conducted. Some of the Democrats questioned whether the strikes are legal.

Jury deliberates in assault case against DC man who threw sandwich at federal agent in viral video

November 5, 2025

A jury has begun deliberating in the Justice Department’s assault case against a man who threw a sandwich at a federal agent, turning him into a symbol of resistance to President Donald Trump’s law-enforcement surge in the nation’s capital. Prosecutors told jurors Wednesday that Sean Charles Dunn broke the law when he threw his submarine sandwich at a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent on the night of Aug. 10. One of Dunn’s lawyers urged the jury to acquit Dunn of a misdemeanor assault charge after a two-day trial. Defense attorney Sabrina Shroff questioned why the case was brought in the first place.

Democratic electoral wins re-energize protesters at an anti-Trump rally in nation’s capital

November 5, 2025

Protesters at an anti-Trump demonstration in Washington, D.C., were re-energized following significant Democratic victories in elections this week. Thousands of demonstrators gathered near the Washington Monument on Wednesday, marking the first large anti-Trump protest since the elections. Democrats won key races, including governorships in Virginia and New Jersey, and a favorable redistricting measure in California. Protesters, organized by groups like Refuse Fascism, felt these wins signaled resistance against perceived presidential overreach. Despite the victories, activists urged continued vigilance. They emphasized the importance of ongoing action, especially with upcoming midterm elections.

Trump faces rare Republican pushback as he presses Senate to scrap the filibuster

November 5, 2025

President Donald Trump is finding that Senate Republicans have a limit as he pushes them to scrap the filibuster. That’s the rule in the Senate that requires 60 votes to pass most legislation. Senate Majority Leader John Thune says the filibuster “makes the Senate the Senate,” and the votes are not there to change it. Trump has long disagreed. At a breakfast with Senate Republicans Wednesday morning, he renewed his calls to end the government shutdown by getting rid of the filibuster and lowering the threshold to 51 votes for legislation. Trump told them, “It’s time for Republicans to do what they have to do.”

Key executive convicted of defrauding JPMorgan Chase is sentenced to over 5 years in prison

November 5, 2025

A top executive at a startup company that helped college students apply for financial aid has been sentenced to over five years in prison for cheating JPMorgan Chase in a $175 million buyout four years ago. The sentencing of Olivier Amar on Wednesday came a month after Charlie Javice, the founder of the startup known as Frank, was sentenced to seven years in prison. Prosecutors say Javice and Amar duped one of the world’s largest banks into thinking Frank had over 4 million customers when it had fewer than 400,000. The acquisition of Frank occurred in 2021.

Democrats are hopeful again. But unresolved questions remain about party’s path forward

November 5, 2025

Democrats are hopeful again. Party leaders on Wednesday celebrated big wins up and down the ballot across deep-blue New York and California to swing-states Georgia, Pennsylvania and Virginia. There were signs that key voting groups, including young people, Black voters and Latinos who shifted toward President Donald Trump’s Republican Party just a year ago, may be shifting back. And Democrats across the political spectrum coalesced behind a simple message focused on Trump’s failure to address rising costs and everyday kitchen table issues. But just beneath the party’s relief at securing its first big electoral wins since last November’s drubbing lay unresolved questions about its direction heading into next year’s midterm elections.

November 5, 2025

California Republicans have filed a lawsuit to block a new U.S. House map that voters just approved. The map, backed by Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom, aims to help Democrats flip up to five congressional seats in next year’s midterm elections. The Dhillon Law Group filed the lawsuit, arguing the map illegally uses race to redraw the map in favor of Hispanic voters. They’re asking the court to block the new districts before the 2026 elections. Newsom’s office said the challenge will fail. It’s unclear if a temporary restraining order would be granted before candidates can start collecting voter signatures to qualify for the ballot.

North Florida’s Apalachicola Bay will soon reopen for wild oyster harvesting. It is a move that supporters hope will breathe life into one of the state’s last historic working waterfronts. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission approved the plan Wednesday to reopen the bay for a limited oyster season beginning Jan. 1, 2026. The move comes five years after the waters that had been nationally known for the sweet, plump shellfish were closed because of dwindling populations.

And for now, the Democrat is dialing back on her criticism of Republican President Donald Trump. The congresswoman is getting to work setting up her new administration and she met with Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy on Wednesday as they discussed the transition. Sherrill says she’s focused on affordability “because my communities are focused on affordability.” She’s promised to use an executive order to freeze monthly electricity bills and wants to expand a program for first-time homebuyers.

Jury deliberates in $40M lawsuit filed against administrator by teacher who was shot by 6-year-old

November 5, 2025

A jury in Virginia has started deliberations in a lawsuit filed against a former school administrator accused of ignoring repeated warnings that a 6-year-old had a gun hours before a teacher was shot. Former teacher Abby Zwerner filed the $40 million lawsuit against Ebony Parker, an ex-assistant principal at Richneck Elementary School in Newport News. Zwerner was shot in January 2023 in her first-grade classroom. A bullet damaged her left hand and remains in her chest. Parker is the only defendant in the lawsuit. Zwerner’s attorneys say Parker failed to act after several school staff members told her that the student had a gun in his backpack.

In ‘Sentimental Value,’ art imitates life and vice versa

November 5, 2025

Joachim Trier’s “Sentimental Value” builds its emotional power subtly through scenes that, like much of the acclaimed Danish-Norwegian filmmaker’s filmography, pulse with the rhythm of life. By the time the film reaches its crescendo, a simple exchange of looks is enough to leave you stirred to your core. The film, starring Renate Reinsve and Stellan Skarsgård, is one of the most acclaimed of the year partly because it’s so much about the intermingling of life and art, and how each enriches the other. Neon, which backed the Oscar-winner “Anora,” is hoping “Sentimental Value” can likewise be a major awards contender.

Virginia voters push back hard on Trump administration efforts to reshape federal government

November 5, 2025

Not every voter in Northern Virginia has felt the impact of President Donald Trump’s efforts to reshape the federal government. But even many who haven’t said they have colleagues or neighbors who are dealing with the consequences. Those concerns contributed to a Democratic sweep of all statewide offices in the commonwealth in Tuesday’s election. The results sent a blistering message to Trump and his party in electing Abigail Spanberger as the commonwealth’s first female governor. Spanberger ran on a promise to protect Virginia’s economy from Trump’s aggressive tactics. His administration has culled the civil service, levied tariffs and shepherded a reconciliation bill curtailing the state’s already fragile health care system.

Shipping delays expected after UPS cargo plane crash

November 5, 2025

The UPS cargo plane crash on Tuesday at the company’s global aviation hub in Kentucky, which killed at least nine, will temporarily disrupt the supply chain and result in some shipping delays. But UPS says it has contingency plans in place and experts say the impact should be cleared up before the peak holiday season. The plane crashed about Tuesday evening as it was departing for Honolulu from UPS Worldport, UPS’ largest shipping hub, at Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport. Package sorting at the center was halted late Tuesday and the halt continued on Wednesday. Consumers who want to check on their UPS packages can wait to hear from the company or look up tracking details online.

New film ‘Nuremberg’ highlights psychiatrist who analyzed Hermann Göring

November 5, 2025

A new film, “Nuremberg,” starring Russell Crowe and Rami Malek, explores the interactions between Nazi leader Hermann Göring and army psychiatrist Dr. Douglas M. Kelley. Kelley’s task was to assess whether Göring and other Nazis were fit to stand trial for war crimes. Directed by James Vanderbilt, the movie is based on Jack El-Hai’s 2013 book, “The Nazi and the Psychiatrist.” Kelley found Göring to be clever and charming, yet unremorseful. The film highlights Kelley’s belief that dangerous ideologies could resurface, a message he felt was relevant upon returning to the U.S. after World War II.

On Day 36, the government shutdown is the longest ever as Trump pressures GOP senators to end it

November 5, 2025

It’s Day 36 and the government shutdown is now the longest ever. President Donald Trump says Democrats must agree to reopen the government before he’ll negotiate with them over demands to salvage expiring health insurance subsidies. During a meeting Wednesday at the White House with Republican senators Trump blamed the shutdown for the GOP’s election losses Tuesday and he pushed senators to get rid of the filibuster. But Senate GOP leader John Thune says that’s “not happening” and top Democrat Chuck Schumer says the election night results “ought to send a much needed bolt of lightning to Donald Trump that he should meet with us to end this crisis.”

Musk the trillionaire? Debate over his Tesla pay package rages

November 5, 2025

Tesla shareholders will decide soon on whether Elon Musk could have a shot at becoming the world’s first trillionaire. In an annual meeting at Tesla’s headquarters in Austin, Texas, they will vote Thursday on whether to approve a pay package that could hand the world’s richest man another $1 trillion in shares. The decision has become a flashpoint among Musk fans and detractors, with even the pope recently weighting in. Supporters say Musk is a miracle man who needs to money as a lure to focus on the company. Critics say the board that designed the package is too beholden to Musk and the pay is excessive.

How key demographic groups voted in 2025, according to the AP Voter Poll

November 5, 2025

There were signs in the AP Voter Poll that there’s plenty of room for Democrats to make up ground among groups that moved toward President Donald Trump in last year’s election. The sweeping survey of more than 17,000 voters in New Jersey, Virginia, California and New York City that explains who voted in each election and their views on the top issues in their state. But even with major wins, the survey also exposed fault lines for Democrats. Young men were less likely than young women to support Democrats in the governor’s races, and Jewish voters in New York City appeared wary of supporting Democratic nominee, Zohran Mamdani.

November 5, 2025

Epic Games has reached a settlement with Google, potentially ending its five-year legal battle over Google’s Play Store for Android apps. The agreement was revealed in a joint legal document filed in a San Francisco federal court on Tuesday. Epic, known for Fortnite, previously won a victory when a federal appeals court condemned Google’s app store as an illegal monopoly. The settlement follows a judge’s ruling requiring Google to allow rival app stores on Android. The specific terms remain under seal and must be approved by a U.S. District Judge. Epic also filed lawsuits against Apple’s app store in 2020.

Trump may become the face of economic discontent, a year after such worries helped him win big

November 5, 2025

Voters have sent a message to President Donald Trump that the economy doesn’t feel as though its booming — despite what he says. Democrats romped to victory in Tuesday’s key races, focusing on issues like the cost of living. Democrats won the governorships of New Jersey and Virginia and an important ballot initiative in California. Many voters expressed dissatisfaction with the Republican president’s handling of the economy. Inflation remains a significant issue. The election suggests Trump’s focus on other issues, including immigration and crime, hasn’t resonated with voters. Instead, a year after big wins, Trump and the GOP may find themselves the new face of economic discontent.

From a few to more than 350, children and parents ride together to school as a ‘bike bus’

November 5, 2025

In the New Jersey township of Montclair, a group bicycle ride to school has become a weekly community ritual. On Fridays, children and parents join a “bike bus” that goes to all the local elementary schools. The initiative started three years ago with a few people wanting to create healthy habits for their children and strengthen the sense of community among parents. One of the regular 5-mile routes attracted 350 riders on a recent morning. The nonprofit organization Bike Bus World says hundreds of similar groups exist throughout the United States and Europe, and in some other countries. Organizers hope the movement encourages elected officials to invest in safer biking infrastructure.

‘Predator: Badlands’ sticks its 2 stars together to take the franchise to new places

November 5, 2025

The seventh “Predator” film takes the franchise to new places by sticking its two stars together. “Predator: Badlands” opens Friday. It features Elle Fanning as a broken android who rides on the back of a young Predator played by Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi and makes common cause with the killer. Director Dan Trachtenberg says there were many inspirations for the film, but the central concept comes from C-3PO strapped to Chewbacca’s back in “The Empire Strikes Back.” “Predator: Badlands” is the first real foray into sci-fi for the 27-year-old Fanning and one of the first films of any kind for the 24-year-old Schuster-Koloamatangi.

How Grammy voting works: Everything you need to know

November 5, 2025

The Recording Academy will announce the 2026 Grammy Award nominees on Friday. It’s a good reason to examine how Grammy voting works. First, members of the Recording Academy and record labels submit artists in certain categories. Those are then vetted for eligibility, then voting members help determine who the final nominations will be. There’s currently 95 Grammy Awards, but voters have to be selective about the genre fields they vote in. The entire membership votes on six prizes, including album, song and record of the year and best new artist. Once the nominees are determined and announced in November, a period of final round voting takes place. Winners are announced live at the award show in February.

Century-old time capsule found at a Utah church evokes memories of a now fleeting Japantown

November 5, 2025

A historian’s hunch about what might lie hidden within the walls of a Japanese church in Salt Lake City led congregants to uncover a century-old time capsule recalling the city’s once vibrant Japantown. The 101-year-old Japanese Church of Christ is one of two remaining buildings in the Japantown district founded in the early 1900s. A cast iron box extracted from the church’s cornerstone helps tell the story of early Japanese immigrants last century. Inside were hand-sewn flags, Bibles and local newspapers in both English and Japanese, the church’s articles of incorporation and a paper with the handwritten names of its Sunday school teachers. The church now sits amid a planned sports and entertainment district.

Mamdani tells Trump that New York is ready to fight after president’s threats fail to thwart voters

November 5, 2025

Zohran Mamdani has just been elected mayor of New York City and is already challenging President Donald Trump. On Tuesday night, Mamdani addressed Trump directly at his Democratic victory party, criticizing the Republican president’s threats to defund the city and deport him. Mamdani is a democratic socialist and naturalized American citizen and emphasizes New York’s identity as a city of immigrants. Trump has previously targeted other cities and has threatened to cut federal funding and take control of New York. Mamdani’s progressive policies have drawn criticism from Republicans. But Mamdani remains determined to resist Trump’s influence. Both leaders seem prepared for a political showdown.

After confirming possible White House run, California’s Newsom scores a win in fight for US House

November 4, 2025

Gov. Gavin Newsom’s victory in California’s election fight over U.S. House control will help raise his national profile as a Democrat willing to confront President Donald Trump. It comes shortly after Newsom confirmed he would consider a White House run of his own in 2028. California voters endorsed Newsom’s plan for a new House map that could flip as many as five Republican seats to Democrats. The maneuver is intended to counter Trump’s moves in Texas and other states to gain more GOP seats. Democrats have been looking to regroup after the disastrous 2024 elections.

Tuesday’s races were a quiet rebuke of Trump for many voters, AP Voter Poll finds

November 4, 2025

President Donald Trump wasn’t on the ballot in Tuesday’s elections, but many voters in key races made their choice in opposition to him or considered him to be irrelevant, according to the AP Voter Poll. The trend that played out in the governor races in New Jersey and Virginia, the mayoral contest in New York City and a California proposition to redraw congressional districts. In both Virginia and New Jersey, about half of voters said Trump was “not a factor” in their votes for governor. Trump weighed more heavily on the minds of California voters, who voted on a proposition to determine whether to redistrict the state’s congressional seats in favor of Democrats.

Zohran Mamdani’s rise: From Queens lawmaker to New York City mayor

November 4, 2025

Zohran Mamdani has stormed onto the national political scene by winning New York City’s mayoral election. Mamdani was unknown to most New Yorkers when he announced his run for mayor roughly a year ago. But that was before the state lawmaker from Queens won over former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo in June’s Democratic primary. The 34-year-old completed his stunning political ascension by again vanquishing Cuomo, as well as Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa, in the Tuesday general election. Mamdani, who was born in Uganda to Indian parents, becomes the city’s first Muslim, first African-born and first South Asian mayor — not to mention its youngest mayor in more than a century.

As vice president during 9/11, Cheney is at the center of an enduring debate over US spy powers

November 4, 2025

Dick Cheney was the public face of the Bush administration’s boundary-pushing approach to surveillance and intelligence collection in the years after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. An unabashed proponent of broad executive power in the name of national security, Cheney was at the center of a public debate over the laws of detention, interrogation and spying that endures more than two decades later. President Donald Trump is now relying on a legal doctrine created during Cheney’s time in office, which authorized the U.S. military to attack, detain or kill enemy combatants, to go after suspected drug smugglers in Latin America.

What to know about the Supreme Court arguments over Trump’s tariffs

November 4, 2025

Three lower courts have ruled illegal President Donald Trump’s use of emergency powers to impose sweeping worldwide tariffs. Now the Supreme Court, with three justices Trump appointed and generally favorable to muscular presidential power, will have the final word. In roughly two dozen emergency appeals, the justices have largely gone along with Trump in temporarily allowing parts of his aggressive second-term agenda to take effect while lawsuits play out. But the case being argued Wednesday is the first in which the court will render a final decision on a Trump policy. The stakes are enormous, both politically and financially, for a central piece of Trump’s economic and foreign policy.

Trump tariffs face Supreme Court test in trillion-dollar test of executive power

November 4, 2025

President Donald Trump’s power to unilaterally impose far-reaching tariffs is coming before the Supreme Court on Wednesday in a pivotal test of executive power with trillion-dollar implications for the global economy. The challengers say Trump is illegally using an emergency law to claim nearly limitless tariff power, something no president has done before, and American small businesses are paying the price. The Trump administration says the law gives the president the power to regulate importation, and that includes tariffs. The president has called the case one of the most important in the country’s history and said a ruling against him would be “catastrophic” for the economy.

Excessive force allegations will be the focus of a Chicago court hearing

November 4, 2025

A judge will consider how to respond to allegations that federal immigration agents in the Chicago area have used excessive force. A hearing Wednesday will follow a surge of recent court filings detailing tense encounters between agents and local residents. The preliminary injunction hearing stems from a lawsuit filed by news outlets and protesters who say agents have used too much force, including tear gas, during demonstrations. U.S. District Judge Sara Ellis has already ordered agents to wear badges and banned them from using certain riot control techniques, such as tear gas, against peaceful protesters and journalists.

Trump heads to Miami to speak about his economic agenda on the anniversary of his election win

November 4, 2025

President Donald Trump is heading to Miami, speaking on the anniversary of his reelection to a second term. Trump on Wednesday will address a forum of business leaders and global athletes and plans to discuss his economic agenda and recent trade and investment deals made on his trip to Asia. The event, called the American Business Forum, is designed to be a more accessible version of gatherings like the World Economic Forum in Davos. Miami is playing a key role in Trump’s second term. He’s hosting the G20 in nearby Doral next year, and Miami is one of the U.S. host cities for next year’s World Cup.

At least seven people are dead after UPS plane crashed in Kentucky. The Federal Aviation Administration said the plane crashed about 5:15 p.m. Tuesday as it was departing for Honolulu from Louisville’s Muhammad Ali International Airport. Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear said 11 others had “very significant” injuries. Video showed flames on the plane’s left wing and a trail of smoke. The plane then lifted slightly off the ground before crashing and exploding in a massive fireball. Four of those killed were not aboard the plane, said Louisville Fire Department Chief Brian O’Neill.

Trump once again nominates tech space traveler Jared Isaacman to serve as NASA administrator

November 4, 2025

President Donald Trump is nominating Jared Isaacman to serve as his NASA administrator after all. The announcement comes five months after Trump withdrew the tech billionaire’s nomination, originally announced during the presidential transition, because of concerns about Isaacman’s political leanings. Over the summer, Trump said he was surprised to learn that Isaacman was a “blue-blooded Democrat, who had never contributed to a Republican before.” Trump made no mention of his previous decision to nominate and then withdraw Isaacman in his Tuesday evening announcement. Isaacman is close to tech entrepreneur Elon Musk. The president and Musk, a former adviser to Trump, had a very public falling out earlier this year, but are now on better terms.

Voters prioritize the economy above immigration and crime in Election 2025, AP Voter Poll finds

November 4, 2025

Economic worries were the dominant concern as voters cast ballots for Tuesday’s elections, according to preliminary findings from the AP Voter Poll. The results of the expansive survey of more than 17,000 voters in New Jersey, Virginia, California and New York City suggest they are troubled by an economy that seems trapped by higher prices and fewer job opportunities. The economic challenges have played out in different ways at the local level. Most New Jersey voters said property taxes were a “major problem,” while most New York City voters said this about the cost of housing. Most Virginia voters said they’ve felt at least some impact from the recent federal government cuts.

Dick Cheney’s political legacy is mixed in home state of Wyoming

November 4, 2025

Dick Cheney leaves behind a mixed legacy in his home state of Wyoming. He died Tuesday at age 84. Some in Wyoming remember the former vice president for being at odds with President Donald Trump after he stood by his daughter, former U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney, who investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. Some say the criticism of Trump came off in Wyoming as though people there were “stupid” for supporting him. Others including Republican state Sen. Tara Nethercott say Cheney deserves appreciation for standing by his daughter during difficult times.

The man who threw a sandwich at a federal agent says it was a protest. Prosecutors say it’s a crime

A man charged with assault for throwing a sandwich at a federal agent calls it an act of protest. Prosecutors are trying to prove that it was a federal crime. Jurors heard attorneys’ opening statements on Tuesday for Sean Charles Dunn’s trial in Washington, D.C. on a misdemeanor assault charge. Customs and Border Protection Agent Gregory Lairmore was the trial’s first witness. He testified that Dunn threw the submarine-style sandwich at his chest with enough force that he could feel the impact through his ballistic vest.

November 4, 2025

More than six years after a Boeing 737 Max crashed in Ethiopia, the first civil trial stemming from the disaster is set to proceed in Chicago. An eight-person jury was selected Tuesday and will be asked to decide how much Boeing should pay the families of two victims who died in the March 2019 crash. Opening statements were scheduled to begin Wednesday. The trial won’t examine liability since Boeing already accepted legal responsibility for the crash. The aircraft maker has settled most wrongful death lawsuits from the crash. Lawyers say about 14 more cases remain open.

A judge has heard testimony about overflowing toilets, crowded cells, no beds and water that “tasted like sewer” at a Chicago-area immigration building. The building serves as a key detention spot for people rounded up in the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. People who were held at Broadview testified in federal court Tuesday. Attorneys say detainees have been denied proper access to food, water and medical care. They also say people have been coerced into signing deportation papers. The government says operations are improving and conditions are not as serious as portrayed.

FACT FOCUS: New York City ballots do not show proof of election fraud

November 4, 2025

As voters lined up at the polls Tuesday, social media users claimed that how candidates are listed on New York City ballots is proof that voting is rigged. But there is nothing amiss about the ballots, which follow New York’s voting laws. Candidates may appear more than once on ballots in the state if they are nominated by multiple political parties — a practice called fusion voting. Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, a Democrat, is in the eighth spot because of when he filed his petition to run as an independent.

Conservative activist Laura Loomer says she’s been granted credentials to join the Pentagon press corps. She announced that on a social media post following a Washington Post report that she had been given the access. The Pentagon did not immediately comment. Loomer has had the ear of President Donald Trump through newsy social media posts that have sometimes questioned the loyalty of some people who work in the federal government, including at the Defense Department. Virtually all mainstream news reporters have turned in their Pentagon rather than agree new media rules set by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and have largely been replaced by conservative media figures supportive of the president.

FBI fires additional agents who participated in investigating Trump, AP sources say

The FBI has continued its personnel purge, forcing out additional agents and supervisors tied to the federal investigation into efforts to overturn the 2020 election despite efforts by Washington’s top federal prosecutor to try to stop at least some of the terminations. That’s according to people familiar with the matter. The employees were told this week that they were being fired but those plans were paused after D.C. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro raised concerns. The agents were then fired again Tuesday, though it’s not clear what prompted the about-face. The total number of fired agents was not immediately clear.

A second monkey has been shot and killed and authorities say they’re still searching for a third missing monkey a week after their escape from an overturned truck on a Mississippi highway. Jasper County Sheriff Sheriff Randy Johnson says the monkey was shot after it was seen crossing the highway on Monday a mile from the scene of last week’s crash. A day earlier, a woman who said she feared for the safety of her children shot and killed another escaped monkey outside their home. The Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks confirmed Tuesday that one monkey is still missing after two were “recovered deceased.” Officials say people shouldn’t approach the monkeys since they’re known to be aggressive.

The flags at the White House are lowered to half-staff in honor of former Vice President Dick Cheney, who died on Tuesday. But President Donald Trump isn’t talking about his fellow Republican. He came to view Cheney as a political opponent after Liz Cheney, the vice president’s daughter, became a leading critic. Liz Cheney was part of the committee that blamed Trump for the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the Capitol. Dick Cheney called him a “coward” and later said he was voting for Democrat Kamala Harris over Trump in 2024. Trump responded by insulting the elder Cheney.

A federal appeals panel in Manhattan reacted skeptically to arguments by a lawyer for once high-flying cryptocurrency entrepreneur Sam Bankman-Fried that his fraud conviction should be overturned. The arguments occurred Tuesday before the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Attorney Alexandra Shapiro told a three-judge panel that errors by the trial judge prevented Bankman-Fried from fully fighting the government’s claims that he cheated his customers and investors. A government attorney, Nathan Rehn, countered that the trial was fair and the evidence against Bankman-Fried was overwhelming. Bankman-Fried is serving a 25-year prison term.

November 4, 2025

The Border Patrol leader who’s behind an aggressive immigration crackdown across the Chicago area is applauding his agents’ use of force and aggressive tactics. That’s even as the operation has prompted resident backlash, lawsuits and criminal investigations. In an interview with The Associated Press, Gregory Bovino defended the approach of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection as appropriate and necessary. More than 3,200 people have been arrested since “Operation Midway Blitz” began in September as part of the Trump administration’s push to target cities with “sanctuary” immigration policies. Agents working in Chicago have increasingly used rubber bullets, pepper balls and a synthetic irritant used by police as tear gas.

The United States is sanctioning a group of bankers and financial firms accused of laundering money for North Korea. The Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control targeted eight people and two firms with the new sanctions on Tuesday. Treasury officials say North Korea relies on a network of cyber thieves and IT workers to steal money — mainly cryptocurrency — and launder it through banks and shell companies in North Korea, China, and Russia. The Treasury Department says the money helps fund North Korea’s nuclear weapons program, and that more than $3 billion has been stolen this way over the past three years.

Scientists spot the brightest flare yet from a supermassive black hole

November 4, 2025

Scientists have spotted the brightest flare yet from a black hole. It was first spotted in 2018 by a camera at the Palomar Observatory in California. The cosmic outburst likely happened because a large star wandered too close to the black hole and got shredded to pieces. It took about three months to shine at peak brightness, about the light of 10 trillion suns. Almost every large galaxy, including our Milky Way, has a supermassive black hole at its center. Studying such behemoths can help researchers understand the stellar neighborhood surrounding them. The research was published Tuesday in the journal Nature Astronomy.

California voters take up Democrats’ push for new congressional maps that could shape House control

November 3, 2025

California voters are deciding whether to change their state’s congressional district boundaries to favor Democrats. This decision Tuesday could impact next year’s midterms and beyond. California, with its 52 districts, offers Democrats a major opportunity in the ongoing redistricting battle. Texas Republicans have already redrawn boundaries to help the GOP retain its House majority. Democrats need to gain three seats in the 2026 elections to take control of the House. Proposition 50, supported by Gov. Gavin Newsom and former President Barack Obama, aims to replace maps drawn by an independent commission with more partisan ones. Critics, including Arnold Schwarzenegger, oppose this move.

A victory for Mamdani in Tuesday’s election would give the city its first Muslim mayor and its youngest leader in generations, while giving his brand of economic populism one of the most visible political perches in America. If Cuomo wins, he will have staged a remarkable political comeback after resigning as governor over a barrage of sexual harassment allegations four years ago. Sliwa faces tough odds as a Republican in a heavily Democratic city. Polls close at 9 p.m.

New Jersey voters are electing their next governor in a race that will reveal whether Democrats still have a grip on a state that has been reliably blue in recent years but has shown signs of shifting toward Republicans. Former state legislator Jack Ciattarelli is endorsed by President Donald Trump. He’s trying to become New Jersey’s first Republican governor since 2018. Ciattarelli faces U.S. Rep. Mikie Sherrill, a Democrat in her fourth term in Congress. If elected, she would become the state’s second female governor. The outcome could gauge how the electorate is responding to Trump’s policies and whether some groups of core Democratic Party voters still have faith in the party’s leadership.

Maine and Texas consider Republican-backed election proposals on voter ID, noncitizen voting

November 3, 2025

Voters in Maine and Texas are deciding whether to enact new Republican-backed measures that supporters say would help safeguard elections, but which opponents believe are intended to make voting more difficult. The Texas proposal would amend the state constitution to add people who aren’t citizens of the United States to the list of those excluded from participating in elections. Meanwhile, Maine’s proposal would implement a photo ID requirement for voters, limit the use of drop boxes for returning completed ballots and make several changes to the state’s absentee voting system.

Virginia governor’s race will test Trump and Democrats nationally — and make history

November 3, 2025

Democrat Abigail Spanberger is facing Republican Winsome Earle-Sears in the Virginia race for governor. The outcome guarantees that Virginia will have a woman as governor for the first time and serves as a test of how voters feel about Donald Trump’s presidency. Earle-Sears has had to campaign with only tepid support from Trump, who did not even say her name in a telephone town hall on the eve of the election. Spanberger is a former congresswoman and CIA case officer who offers a model for Democrats who want the party anchored by center-left candidates. Spanberger has tied Earle-Sears to Trump but kept her arguments mostly on Trump’s economic policy and her support for abortion rights.

Maine to vote on proposed red flag gun law inspired by mass shooting that killed 18

November 3, 2025

Two years after the deadliest mass shooting in Maine’s history, voters are considering whether to make it easier for family members to petition a court to restrict a potentially dangerous person’s access to guns. A statewide ballot question Tuesday asks residents if they want to build on the state’s yellow flag law, which allows police officers to initiate a process to keep someone away from firearms. Approval would add Maine to more than 20 states that have a red flag law. Gun safety advocates began pushing for that after 18 people were killed in the Lewiston shooting in 2023.

Trump’s not going to the Supreme Court hearing on tariffs. But his treasury secretary will be there

November 3, 2025

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says he plans to take a “ringside seat” at the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday. That’s when the justices are set to hear arguments on whether President Donald Trump overstepped federal law in setting many of his sweeping tariffs. Trump had said he wanted to go to the arguments in person. But this weekend, he ruled it out, saying he didn’t want to be a distraction. Bessent told Fox News Channel the case was critical, calling it a “matter of national security.” Lower courts have said Trump overstepped his powers when he set the tariffs, but left them in place pending the Supreme Court’s decision.

New York’s Jewish community divided, anxious as city faces potential first Muslim mayor

November 3, 2025

New York City’s Jewish community — the largest in the United States — is abounding with anxiety and friction a day ahead of an election that could give the city its first Muslim mayor. That candidate, Zohran Mamdani, has won over many progressive Jewish voters with vows to make the city more affordable and equitable. Yet he has alarmed many other Jews — in New York and across the U.S. — with harsh criticism of Israeli policies, including assertions that its military campaign in Gaza amounts to genocide.

Mass murderer George Banks, spared from death penalty, dies in prison 43 years after rampage

November 3, 2025

George Banks, one of the most notorious mass murderers in the U.S., has died. Pennsylvania’s Department of Corrections says Banks died Sunday afternoon at Phoenix state prison. Montgomery County’s coroner, Dr. Janine Darby, says the 83-year-old Banks died of complications from renal neoplasm, or kidney cancer. Banks had been in prison since 1982 after shooting 14 people, and killing 13, including five of his own children during a rampage in Wilkes-Barre. At time, it was considered one of the worst mass murders in American history. He also killed four women who were the mothers of his children, plus a teenager, an 11-year-old child and a seven-year-old child. He was convicted of 13 counts of murder.

Justice Department defends Trump’s post as it urges judge to reject Comey’s effort to dismiss case

November 3, 2025

The Justice Department is urging a federal judge to reject James Comey’s claim that his prosecution amounts to political retribution. Prosecutors said in court papers Monday that the former FBI director has failed to show he’s being targeted as punishment for his criticism of the president. The Justice Department defended President Donald Trump’s September social media post demanding that action be taken in the Comey investigation, saying it reflects “legitimate prosecutorial motive” and is no basis to dismiss the indictment accusing Comey of lying to Congress in 2020.

Man accused in a series of 1980s rapes in Florida is convicted in another attack

November 3, 2025

A man suspected of being the “pillowcase rapist” in a string of South Florida rapes during the 1980s has been convicted in another one of the attacks. Miami-Dade County jurors found 66-year-old Robert Koehler guilty on Monday of sexual battery, kidnapping and burglary after deliberating for less than two hours. His sentencing is scheduled for Nov. 24. Monday’s conviction comes in the case of a woman who was 22 years old in 1984 when someone broke into her southwest Miami-Dade County home and raped her. Koehler was sentenced to 17 years in prison nearly three years ago for a similar attack on a 25-year-old woman in 1983.

Trump administration says SNAP will be partially funded in November

November 3, 2025

President Donald Trump’s administration says it will partially fund the SNAP food aid program in November after two federal judges required the payments to continue. That means grocery aid will resume for 1 in 8 Americans, though it has been delayed for millions already and the amount beneficiaries receive will be reduced. The U.S. Department of Agriculture earlier said it would not continue the funding in November due to the government shutdown. Two federal judges ruled last week that the government was required to keep the program running. But both gave the administration leeway to pay for it entirely or partially. It can take up to two weeks to load beneficiaries’ debit cards.

Two men accused of plotting terror attacks at LGBTQ+ bars in the Detroit area

November 3, 2025

Two men have been charged with terrorism-related crimes in the Detroit area after federal authorities made arrests and seized a cache of weapons last week in a storage unit and elsewhere. According to a 72-page criminal complaint unsealed in federal court, the men had scouted LGBTQ+ bars in Ferndale, a Detroit suburb. FBI Director Kash Patel had announced arrests Friday, but no other details were released at the time while agents searched a home in Dearborn and a storage unit in Inkster. The court filing says the two men who were charged and other co-conspirators were inspired by the Islamic State group’s extremism.

Republicans seek to tap into Trump energy on eve of Election Day in New Jersey, Virginia

November 3, 2025

New Jersey Republicans are trying to ride the coattails of President Donald Trump’s 2024 electoral momentum. Gubernatorial candidate Jack Ciattarelli and Virginia candidate Winsome Earle-Sears are crisscrossing their respective states, while Trump is expected to speak at telephone rallies with voters later Monday. This comes after their Democratic opponents Mikie Sherrill and Abigail Spanberger campaigned over the weekend alongside former President Barack Obama. Ciattarelli spent time Monday courting voters in a key traditionally Democratic stronghold that contributed to Trump’s gains in New Jersey. It’s a delicate balance for Republicans, who want to catch some of Trump’s electoral energy while not dismissing concerns about increasing costs.

Courts order ICE not to deport man who spent 43 years in prison before murder case overturned

November 3, 2025

Two courts have ordered immigration officials not to deport a Pennsylvania man who spent four decades in prison before his murder conviction was overturned. Relatives say 64-year-old Subramanyam Vedam is currently detained at a holding facility in Louisiana with an airstrip for deportations. Both an immigration judge and a U.S. district court have since stayed his deportation until the Bureau of Immigration Appeals decides whether to review his case. The Trump Administration believes he should be deported over a long-ago drug conviction. Vedam’s lawyers say the 43 years he wrongly spent in prison should outweigh that.

AI darlings prop up Wall Street as most other stocks fall

November 3, 2025

Nvidia and other AI superstar stocks propped up Wall Street. The S&P 500 rose 0.2% Monday, even though the majority of stocks within the index fell. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 0.5%, and the Nasdaq composite rose 0.5%. Nvidia was the strongest force lifting the market, much as it has been throughout 2025. Another AI winner, Amazon, rallied after announcing a deal with OpenAI. They helped offset a big loss for Kimberly-Clark, which fell after saying it would buy Kenvue, the maker of Tylenol. Stock indexes ended mixed in Europe following a stronger finish in Asia.

First clinical trial of pig kidney transplants gets underway

November 3, 2025

The first clinical trial is getting underway to see if transplanting pig kidneys into people might really save lives. United Therapeutics, a producer of gene-edited pig kidneys, announced Monday that the study’s initial transplant was performed successfully at NYU Langone Health. It’s the latest step in the quest for animal-to-human transplants. A second U.S. company, eGenesis, is preparing to begin a similar trial in the coming months. A handful of experiments led up to these more rigorous studies. The longest-lasting known so far was 271 days, when a New Hampshire man resumed dialysis as his declining pig kidney was removed.

Judge rejects plea deal for funeral home owner accused of stashing nearly 190 decaying bodies

November 3, 2025

A Colorado judge has rejected the plea agreement of a funeral home owner accused of stashing nearly 190 decaying bodies in a bug-infested building. The judge ruled Monday after family members of the deceased said the deal’s 15- to 20-year sentence for Carie Hallford was too lenient. Both Carie Hallford and her husband, Jon Hallford, owned Return to Nature Funeral Home. They are accused of dumping bodies and giving families fake ashes between 2019 and 2023. Last year, both pleaded guilty to 191 counts of corpse abuse. Jon Hallford’s plea deal was rejected in August, and he then withdrew his guilty plea. Carie Hallford withdraw her guilty plea Monday, and is scheduled for trial next year.

Endangered loggerhead sea turtle released to Atlantic Ocean from Florida beach

November 3, 2025

An endangered loggerhead sea turtle has been released into the Atlantic Ocean from a Florida beach nearly three months after being hit by a boat. The adult female, named Swim Shady, returned the wild Monday morning just north of Palm Beach. Officials say the reptile weighed about 268 pounds when she was found stranded in Port St. Lucie in August after a boat strike. Rescuers found she was carrying eggs, had limited vision in one eye and was anemic. Swim Shady underwent surgery to remove a loose piece of her shell and recovered with antibiotics and supportive care.

Donna Jean Godchaux-MacKay, Grateful Dead singer, dies at 78

November 3, 2025

Donna Jean Godchaux-MacKay, known for her soulful mezzo-soprano voice, has died at 78. A spokesperson confirmed Godchaux-MacKay died Sunday at Alive Hospice in Nashville after having cancer. Godchaux-MacKay was a session performer in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, and sang on classics like Elvis Presley’s “Suspicious Minds” and Percy Sledge’s “When a Man Loves a Woman.” In the early 1970s, she and her then-husband Keith Godchaux joined the Grateful Dead, contributing to albums like “Terrapin Station.” She continued to tour and record after leaving the band in 1979.

Trial starts for assault case against DC man who tossed sandwich at federal agent on viral video

November 3, 2025

A trial has begun for a former government attorney charged with assault for throwing a sandwich at a federal agent. A grand jury refused to indict Sean Charles Dunn on a felony charge. Convicting him of a misdemeanor could be an equally tough task for prosecutors. A video that went viral on social media captured Dunn hurling his subway-style sandwich at a Customs and Border Protection agent outside a nightclub on the night of Aug. 10. The incident turned Dunn into a symbol of resistance against President Donald Trump’s law-enforcement surge in the nation’s capital.
