You may have missed it, but on Friday, the Supreme Court lifted a lower court order that blocked the Department of Government Efficiency from accessing the Social Security Administration's data systems. Since Social Security tracks data from cradle to grave, here is just some of the information DOGE will now have access to: your name, Social Security number, date and place of birth, gender, addresses, marital and parental status, your parents' names, lifetime earnings, bank account information, immigration and work authorization status, health conditions if you apply for disability benefits, and your use of Medicare after a certain age. Before the ruling, Social Security data was always tightly restricted. Here's what else you need to know to get up to speed and on with your day. |

Protests against President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown have rocked Los Angeles, prompting the LAPD to declare all of downtown an unlawful assembly area. Demonstrations in and around the nation's second-most populous city began on Friday and continued throughout the weekend. Although law enforcement officers in riot gear had already used flash-bangs to disperse crowds while making arrests, Trump announced on Saturday that he was deploying 2,000 members of the National Guard. This prompted thousands of protesters to gather, blocking lanes on freeways and occupying nearby streets. Most demonstrators remained peaceful, but some threw rocks, bottles and fireworks at officers and set fire to at least two self-driving cars. A CNN crew also witnessed officers striking protesters with batons and firing tear gas and pepper balls. |
Colombia assassination attempt |
Colombian senator Miguel Uribe, who is in the running to join next year's presidential race, was shot twice in the back during a campaign event in Bogota on Saturday. The 39-year-old lawmaker is currently in critical condition. Uribe is a member of the center-right Centro Democrático (Democratic Center), the biggest opposition party in the South American nation. Colombian President Gustavo Petro has condemned the attack and vowed to hunt down those responsible. So far, police have arrested a teenage boy in connection with the assassination attempt. |
The Israeli military has intercepted the "Madleen," a ship carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza, where more than 600 days of war — and an 11-week Israeli blockade of all aid — has pushed the enclave's 2.1 million people deeper into a hunger crisis. According to the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, the UK-flagged civilian vessel was surrounded by quadcopters, communications were jammed and disturbing sounds were played over the radio. Israeli troops then boarded the ship and detained its crew and passengers, including climate activist Greta Thunberg and Rima Hassan, a French member of the European Parliament. |
Dozens of people in seven states have been sickened by a salmonella outbreak linked to eggs, the CDC said. In response, the August Egg Company has recalled 1.7 million dozen brown cage-free and brown certified organic eggs, sold under multiple brand names, that have the "potential to be contaminated." Consumers who purchased the eggs at Walmart, Save Mart, FoodMaxx, Lucky, Smart & Final, Safeway, Raleys, Food 4 Less and Ralphs should throw them out or return them to the store where they were purchased. To date, no deaths have been reported, but 21 people have been hospitalized.
