Senate Confirms Warsh As Chairman Of Federal Reserve

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate has confirmed Kevin Warsh as chairman of the Federal Reserve. The vote to confirm Warsh on Wednesday brings new leadership to the world’s most powerful central bank at a fraught moment for the global economy. Warsh’s nomination faced uncertainty after Republican Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina threatened to block it while the Justice Department investigated Fed Chair Jerome Powell. The Powell probe was dropped in April, allowing the Warsh confirmation to move forward. Warsh will take over as the Fed confronts stubborn inflation, deep divisions over interest rates and renewed scrutiny from President Donald Trump over its independence.

Louisiana Advances Plan To Eliminate Majority-Black U.S. House District After Court Ruling

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Republican senators in Louisiana have advanced a plan to eliminate one of two majority-Black, Democratic-held congressional seats. The Senate committee vote early Wednesday follows a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that struck down the state's House map as an illegal racial gerrymander. Committee members heard hours of testimony from Black residents and Democrats opposed to the move. Republicans chose not to target both Democratic seats. The Supreme Court's recent ruling weakening Voting Rights Act protections has prompted similar redistricting efforts in Southern states like Tennessee and Alabama. Those efforts are part of a broader national redistricting battle that has involved about one-third of the states.

Missouri Man Charged After Bomb-Making Tutorials Were Allegedly Used In New Orleans Attack

Federal prosecutors charged a Missouri man on Tuesday with allegedly sharing instructional bomb-making videos on social media, which were eventually used by the man who killed 14 people and injured dozens in New Orleans on New Year's Day in 2025. Investigators believe Shamsud-Din Jabbar, who drove a pickup truck down Bourbon Street, downloaded the tutorials and put improvised explosive devices consistent with the videos near the attack, according to a statement from U.S. Attorney Matthew Price. Jabbar exited his vehicle wearing a ballistic vest and fired at officers who returned fire and killed him. The explosives didn’t detonate and were safely removed by law enforcement after the attack. Prosecutors also said the instructional videos were used before an explosion earlier this month at a private residence in Odessa, Missouri. An attorney wasn't listed for the man charged with making the videos. The man is charged with one count of distributing information relating to manufacturing explosives. He is also accused of making and possessing explosive devices without a license. He is facing up two 10-year sentences and one 20-year sentence in prison if convicted.

South Carolina Lawyer Murdaugh's Murder Conviction Overturned

May 13 (Reuters) - South Carolina's highest court on Wednesday overturned the murder conviction of former lawyer Richard "Alex" Murdaugh, who was serving two consecutive life sentences for allegedly shooting his wife and 22-year-old son dead in June 2021. The state's supreme court ruled Murdaugh's 2023 trial was marred by the “improper” influence of county clerk Becky Hill. The decision followed a February request by Murdaugh's attorney for a new trial. “Although we are aware of the time, money, and effort expended for this lengthy trial, we have no choice but to reverse the denial of Murdaugh’s motion for a new trial due to Hill’s improper external influences on the jury and remand for a new trial,” the five justices wrote in their unanimous decision. In court filings, Murdaugh's lawyers argued he deserved a new trial based on alleged jury tampering and prosecutorial errors during the investigation and trial. Murdaugh is from an influential legal family in an area west of Charleston. His case drew nationwide interest given his political power and the nature of the violent crime involving his family members. He will remain in state prison, where he is serving a 27-year sentence for financial crimes. South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson said his office would seek to retry Murdaugh as soon as possible. "No one is above the law," Wilson said in a statement.

U.S. Air Force Training Jet Crashes In Alabama; Pilots Eject Safely

COLUMBUS, Miss. (AP) — A U.S. Air Force training jet crashed Tuesday in west Alabama with both pilots ejecting safely, military officials said. Military officials said a T-38 Talon II aircraft from Columbus Air Force Base in Mississippi was involved in a “mishap” at noon. “The cause of the mishap is currently unknown and will be investigated by a Safety Investigation Board,” according to a news release from base officials. The public affairs office at the Columbus Air Force Base said it could not provide information about the condition of the pilots other than to say they safely ejected. The base is home to the 14th Flying Training Wing, which trains pilots on a variety of aircraft. The T-38 Talon is a supersonic jet trainer.

Former Private Prison Executive Named Acting ICE Head

The Trump administration has named David Venturella as the next acting head of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, replacing current acting director Todd Lyons at the end of the month. Venturella previously worked as an executive with GEO Group, one of the nation’s largest private prison and immigration detention companies. Before returning to ICE, he served in leadership roles overseeing detention contracts and corporate development. The leadership change comes as the Trump administration continues expanding immigration detention operations and pushing forward with its mass deportation agenda. ICE has played a central role in those efforts, ramping up arrests, detention capacity, and enforcement operations nationwide. Venturella’s appointment is already drawing scrutiny from immigration advocates and critics who point to his ties to the private prison industry. Supporters of the move say his long experience inside ICE and the detention system makes him qualified to lead the agency during a period of major expansion.

Cruise Line Reviewing Summer Sailing Plans After Deadly Hantavirus Outbreak

The company operating the cruise ship linked to a deadly hantavirus outbreak says it expects to decide by the end of the week whether the vessel will continue its planned summer cruise schedule. The Dutch-flagged MV Hondius had been scheduled to depart later this month for Arctic cruises throughout the summer, according to the company’s website.

In total, 11 cases have now been reported worldwide, with nine of those cases confirmed. Officials continue monitoring former passengers as the investigation into the outbreak continues.
