Supreme Court rules for veterans on GI Bill benefits dispute
The 7-2 ruling holds that veterans earning separate entitlements under the Montgomery and Post 9/11 GI Bills may use benefits in any order up to a 48 month cap. It could require the VA to increase education payouts, affecting up to about 1.7 million veterans nationwide. The decision arrives too late for Richmond native Jim Rudisill, an FBI agent, but sets a precedent for future cases.

Haley votes for Trump undermining own critique
Bloomberg Opinion columnist Mary Ellen Klas argues Nikki Haley sacrificed credibility by endorsing Donald Trump after a campaign of sharp criticism. The piece contends Haley chose career over country, weakening Republican resolve against an autocratic drift, and frames her vote as a cynical move that erodes her supporters' influence and the party's chance to unite.
