Supreme Court considers letting Trump administration revive restrictive immigration asylum policy

AP News WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court grappled Tuesday with whether the Trump administration should be able to revive an immigration policy that has been used to turn back migrants seeking asylum at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Some conservative justices seemed receptive to the Justice Department's push to overturn a lower-court ruling against the practice known as metering. Immigration authorities limited the number of people who could apply for asylum, saying it was necessary to handle an increase at the border.

US stocks wobble to an uneven close on uncertainty over length of Iran war

AP News NEW YORK (AP) — The U.S. stock market wobbled to an uneven close as uncertainty continues about how long the war with Iran will last. The S&P 500 initially fell Tuesday to an early-morning loss of 0.8% and gave back much of its surge from Monday.

Petro questions use of secondhand planes by Colombia's military after deadly crash

AP News BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — Colombian President Gustavo Petro on Tuesday questioned the use of secondhand planes by the country's armed forces, as officials investigate the crash of a military transport plane that killed dozens of soldiers in southwestern Colombia.

“An army cannot defend its own people with crappy gifts,” Petro wrote on X in reference to the Hercules CJ-130, which was donated to Colombia by the United States. “They give away whatever is useless to them — and the 'gift' ends up costing more than buying it new.”

On Monday a military transport...
