Overnight, the Trump administration prepared for potential renewed strikes on Iran as ceasefire negotiations sputtered, while the DOJ scrubbed Jan. 6 prosecution records from its website and a judge dismissed smuggling charges against a wrongly deported migrant. Today, watch whether diplomacy can avert a wider conflict in the Middle East and how courts continue to push back on immigration hardliners.
The Trump administration is temporarily pausing deportations to the Democratic Republic of Congo as an Ebola outbreak spirals, but experts warn the move is legally motivated and won't stop disease spread. At least one woman, Adriana Zapata, remains stranded in Kinshasa after a judge ordered her return to the U.S.; officials now cite the travel ban to refuse her re-entry.
The Department of Justice has removed from its website thousands of news releases documenting Jan. 6 prosecutions, calling the records 'partisan propaganda.' The purge is the latest step in the administration's effort to rewrite the Capitol assault's history, coming just after it created a $1.776 billion fund to compensate allies who claim they were unjustly investigated.
Three people died and 18 first responders were hospitalized after exposure to powdered opioids at a rural New Mexico home in Mountainair, east of Albuquerque. Preliminary findings identified fentanyl, para-fluorofentanyl, and methamphetamine at the scene, with the University of New Mexico's chief medical officer warning that even brief skin contact with airborne fentanyl particles can trigger overdose symptoms.
An 18,000-acre wildfire on Santa Rosa Island has burned nearly one-third of the island, threatening six plant species found nowhere else on Earth, including a unique subspecies of Torrey pine. Firefighters have so far kept the blaze from a grove of ancient pines, but biologists are anxiously monitoring whether the island's rare flora can recover naturally from the scorching.
More than 40,000 people have been ordered to evacuate near Garden Grove, California, after a 7,000-gallon tank of methyl methacrylate began leaking at an aerospace facility. Fire officials warn the volatile chemical faces two outcomes: a catastrophic spill or a thermal-runaway explosion. Local schools have closed and major road exits have shut as crews race to prevent disaster.
A Tennessee federal judge has dismissed human smuggling charges against Kilmar Abrego García, the Salvadoran migrant whose wrongful deportation to a mega-prison in El Salvador became a flashpoint in the administration's immigration crackdown.
Iran's parliamentary speaker warned Saturday that Tehran would secure its 'legitimate rights' by battlefield or negotiation, as a Pakistani delegation visited amid frantic diplomacy to prevent renewed U.S. strikes. Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf told the Pakistani army chief that Iranian forces had rebuilt capabilities during the ceasefire and threatened a 'more crushing and bitter' response if Trump resumed attacks.
A measles outbreak in Bangladesh has killed more than 500 children since mid-March, the deadliest surge in decades, with 13 deaths in the past 24 hours alone. Hospitals in Dhaka are overwhelmed; the country of 175 million is conducting an emergency vaccination campaign, but the disease's high contagion rate and severe complications continue to outpace response efforts.
At least 82 people were killed in a coal mine explosion in China, according to state media, marking one of the deadliest industrial accidents in the country in recent years.
France has barred Israeli minister Itamar Ben Gvir from entering the country, citing his government's treatment of activists and the minister's hardline record.

Last month we launched Project Glasswing, our collaborative AI cybersecurity initiative. Since then, we and our partners have found more than ten thousand high- or critical-severity vulnerabilities in essential software.
Patching these vulnerabilities will make us safer. But the software industry will need to adapt to the volume of vulnerabilities that models like Claude Mythos Preview will be able to find.
i noticed in a kitty litter fork someone's trying to get Nyxian in, which would technically allow us to build iphone apps directly on the iphone, without xcode or any external service
Not really begging for a reset, I don't need one :)
But from a customer experience, if a customer downgrades, and OAI charges a payment source, it's a poor look to have the user still limited by their weekly limit.
imo if OAI charges someone money, the weekly limit should restart from that point in time... or they should make sure the weekly limit cadence stays in sync with billing
Don't charge users money, and then leave them in an unable to work state.
I would fix that before doing twitter/x good will resets of everyone, it just makes sense that a user paying more money, should be able to work in a fresh weekly limit based on their subscription level
