Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Corva Coleman. Today's the sixth day of the federal government shutdown. The Senate is set to vote today on reopening the government, but NPR's Luke Garrett reports Republican and Democratic lawmakers remain at an impasse.
Senate Republican Leader John Thune and Democrat Leader Chuck Schumer both say they want to talk, but disagree on what to discuss. Schumer wants to negotiate health care benefit extensions, while Thune will only talk about reopening the government. Meanwhile, Speaker Mike Johnson says he's keeping the House closed for the week. Johnson, a Republican, blames Schumer on NBC. They're doing this to get political cover because Chuck Schumer is afraid that he won't win his next reelection bid to the Senate. And House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, also on NBC, threw the burden on President Trump.
The president's spending all of his time on the golf course. We need serious leadership.
Schumer says the only solution is another meeting between Thune, Johnson, Jeffries, Trump and himself. Luke Garrett, NPR News, Washington.
A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration from deploying any National Guard units to Oregon. From anywhere, this judge has now ruled twice this weekend on this issue. NPR's Matt Bloom reports on the judge's decision late last night.
This ruling comes after the same judge temporarily blocked the administration from deploying Oregon National Guard troops to Portland on Saturday. The next day, the president responded by ordering National Guard troops from neighboring California to the city. But in a telephone hearing Sunday night, U.S. District Judge Karen Emmergut granted a new temporary restraining order sought by both California and Oregon, saying she saw no legal basis for the military to assist local law enforcement on the ground in Portland. While Trump has called the West Coast city war-ravaged amid ongoing ICE protests, Oregon officials say local law enforcement is capable of handling the response. Matt Bloom, NPR News.
Hundreds of thousands of people marched across Europe this weekend in support of Palestinians. In Britain, about 500 people were arrested at a peaceful rally. NPR's Lauren Frayer reports some back a group that advocates for Palestinians.
The UK government has banned even expressions of support for a group called Palestine Action after some of its members vandalized UK military aircraft that had been used in support of Israeli operations in Gaza. Since the ban, there have been weekly sit-ins where thousands have been arrested for holding placards or chanting. U.K. officials asked organizers to cancel this weekend's gathering, saying it would divert police from guarding synagogues after an attack last week. But organizers refused. Now U.K. officials say they'll give police enhanced power to crack down further.
Lauren Freyer, NPR News, London. The protests in the U.K. come ahead of tomorrow's second anniversary of Hamas's attack on Israel that killed nearly 1,200 people and took 251 people hostage. This is NPR. The parent company of Fifth Third Bank is buying the financial services and banking company Comerica. The deal is worth nearly $11 billion, and it will all be done in a stock transaction. The two companies say their merger, if approved, will create the ninth largest bank in the U.S. This year's Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to three scientists. They include Americans Mary Brunko and Fred Ramsdell and Japan's Shimon Sakaguchi. They're being honored for work that explains why the immune system in the human body can protect it instead of hurting it.
Tonight will feature the biggest, brightest moon of this year. And as NPR's Amy Held reports, it will also start a season of supermoons to close out the year.
Supermoons happen three or four times a year, but this first supermoon of 2025 ushers in a trio in the last three months of the year.
