Supreme Court upholds federal domestic violence gun ban
The Supreme Court ruled 8-1 to uphold a 1994 federal ban on firearms for individuals under protective orders in domestic violence cases. Chief Justice Roberts said the rule is sensible and targeted after a judge finds credible threat, while Justice Thomas dissented. The decision narrows challenges to gun restrictions rooted in Bruen history tests.

Biden aides say corporate rates could rise to 28 percent with individual cuts preserved for under 400k. The plan hinges on a Democratic sweep and political leverage to fund selective social programs.
