Supreme Court nominee battle centers on two key senators
The campaign over President Trump's pick to replace Justice Kennedy centers on Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski. Both face intense pressure from activists and voters as Congress debates timing, precedent, and the possibility of shifting the court's balance. Murkowski vows high standards and careful scrutiny, while Collins cites Roe v Wade as settled law and favors precedent as a guide. Trump plans to announce soon, with Republicans weighing rapid confirmation against electoral considerations.

Brazilian mother and son reunite after border separation decree
A Chicago federal judge ordered the release of Lidia Karine Souza and her nine year old son Diego, ending four weeks apart. The reunion followed a ruling that continued separation irreparably harms them, amid White House pressure to reunite families within 30 days. The broader context includes 2,000+ children still separated and debate over U.S. reunification plans.
