Jury Finds Meta Liable for Harm To Children

A New Mexico jury has found social media company Meta liable for harming children’s mental health and violating state consumer protection laws. Prosecutors argued the company prioritized profits over user safety and failed to adequately protect young users from harmful content and exploitation on its platforms. Meta denied the allegations, saying it discloses risks and actively works to remove dangerous material, while acknowledging that some harmful content can still get through. The company says it plans to appeal the verdict. The decision comes as social media companies face increasing legal challenges nationwide, including a similar case currently being considered by a jury in California.

Senators Discuss Plan To End Government Shutdown

Senators are discussing a potential deal to end the Homeland Security funding stalemate that has stretched on for weeks and disrupted air travel across the country. The proposal would fund most of the Department of Homeland Security, including Transportation Security Administration workers who have been going without pay, but would exclude key Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations at the center of the dispute. The talks follow meetings between Republican senators and President Donald Trump at the White House, as lawmakers work to reach a compromise. Senate leaders say discussions have been “productive,” with both parties expected to review formal proposals. The shutdown has led to long airport lines and staffing shortages, as unpaid TSA workers call out or quit, increasing pressure on Congress to reach a deal quickly.

Rubio Testifies In Rivera Foreign Lobbying Trial

Secretary of State Marco Rubio took the stand in a Miami federal courtroom, saying he had no knowledge that former Congressman David Rivera was allegedly lobbying on behalf of Venezuela’s government. Rubio testified he would have been “shocked” to learn of any connection between Rivera and Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro, emphasizing that their discussions focused on potential political changes in the country—not support for its government. Prosecutors allege Rivera and a co-defendant were involved in a multimillion-dollar lobbying effort tied to Venezuela and failed to register as foreign agents. The defense argues the work was commercial in nature and did not require registration under federal law. The case centers on whether Rivera violated the Foreign Agents Registration Act, with Rubio’s testimony offering key insight into their past interactions and the broader effort to influence U.S. policy toward Venezuela.

Missouri Court Upholds Congressional Redistricting Backed By Trump

The Missouri Supreme Court on Tuesday upheld a mid-decade redistricting plan that gives Republicans an improved chance at winning an additional U.S. House seat in this year’s midterm elections. The decision marks a legal victory for President Donald Trump in a nationwide redistricting battle. But it may not be the final word. Opponents have submitted more than 300,000 petition signatures in an attempt to put the new map to a statewide vote. Missouri’s Republican-led Legislature approved new U.S. House districts in September at the urging of Trump, shortly after Texas Republicans also redrew their congressional districts. Trump is hoping the new districts could help the GOP hold on to its narrow majority in the House, where Democrats need to gain only a few sets in November to win control and impede Trump’s agenda. Opponents had argued that Missouri’s constitution allows redistricting only immediately after a census — not in the middle of a decade. But the state’s high court rejected that argument in a 4-3 decision, concluding there was no explicit prohibition against the Legislature doing redistricting more often.

U.S. Expected To Send More Troops To Middle East

The Pentagon is weighing deployment of thousands of 82nd Airborne troops as President Donald Trump signals both escalation and openness to a deal with Iran. According to two people familiar with the matter, the Pentagon is expected to send thousands of soldiers to the Middle East from the U.S. Army's elite 82nd Airborne Division stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. It would add to a massive U.S. military buildup as the U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran continues. The move would expand options to include deployment of forces inside Iranian territory and could dramatically raise the stakes in the operation, which is already in its fourth week and has roiled global markets. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump on Tuesday continued to talk about a possible deal with Iran to end the war. Tehran denies the conversations have taken place. "We're in negotiations right now. They're doing it along with Marco, JD, we have a number of people doing it. And the other side, I can tell you they'd like to make a deal." He also said that Iran had made a major energy-related concession to the United States, describing it as a positive development, although he did not give details. Trump suggested the gift was related to the Strait of Hormuz, the oil transit waterway that the United States has struggled to keep open. "They gave us a present. And the present arrived today, and it was a very big present worth a tremendous amount of money." The war with Iran has taken a toll on Trump’s popularity. The latest Reuters/Ipsos poll shows Trump’s approval rating has fallen to 36%, the lowest since he returned to the White House.

DHS: Nearly 500 TSA officers quit

More than 450 Transportation Security Administration officers have quit since the start of a partial government shutdown on February 14, leading to massive delays at U.S. airports, the Department of Homeland Security said on Tuesday. About 50,000 TSA officers are going without pay and are set to miss a second full paycheck on Friday. Hundreds of U.S. immigration agents and Homeland Security Investigations officers began deploying at 14 U.S. airports on Monday to aid security screening, including at some airports where wait times have topped three or four hours. DHS said on Monday nearly 11% of TSA officers nationally - or more than 3,200 - did not show up for work. ICE and other law enforcement personnel at DHS are getting paid during the shutdown. On Monday, more than 30% of TSA workers were absent at New York JFK, Baltimore, Houston Hobby, Atlanta and New Orleans airports, DHS said. At New York LaGuardia, ICE officers were walking the terminal on Monday and not performing duties handled by TSA officers. Social media posts from other airports showed ICE agents standing near TSA officers who were checking identification. DHS rushed to deploy ICE agents after President Donald Trump said over the weekend they would be placed at airports if Democratic lawmakers did not make a funding deal. Democrats have held up funding for DHS while demanding a change in rules governing its immigration operations, after agents in Minneapolis shot and killed U.S. citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti, sparking public outrage. Republicans have rejected Democratic proposals to fund TSA while negotiating over ICE reforms.

NTSB says tracking system failed at LaGuardia jet collision

The National Transportation Safety Board said on Tuesday that a system which would have allowed a New York airport controller to track movement of aircraft and vehicles did not alert during a Sunday night collision between an Air Canada commercial jet and a truck that killed two pilots. The NTSB, an independent safety agency, is leading the investigation into the fatal collision of the Air Canada Express CRJ-900 jet with a firetruck at LaGuardia Airport. The flight, operated by regional partner Jazz Aviation, had 72 passengers and four crew. The truck, which was on its way to assist another plane that had reported an emergency, crossed the runway just nine seconds before the crash, according to the plane's cockpit voice recorder. "ASDE-X did not generate an alert due to the close proximity of vehicles merging and unmerging near the runway, resulting in the inability to create a track of high confidence," NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy told reporters in New York. ASDE-X, or the Airport Surface Detection Equipment Model X, is a surveillance system designed to help reduce runway incursions that allows air traffic controllers to track surface movement of aircraft and vehicles. Homendy also said the truck did not have a transponder, unlike similar vehicles at other airports in the U.S. The Federal Aviation Administration has encouraged airports to equip firetrucks with transponders because it makes the vehicles' movement easier to track at busy airports. She said it is unclear if an alerting technology would have prevented the incident since it happened so fast. Air crashes typically are caused by multiple factors with the investigation's goal to improve aviation safety and not assign blame. U.S. air safety experts have said communications between the plane ?that was landing, the controller and the trucks would be key areas of the investigation. The collision has raised questions about the controller's workload and staffing at the busy New York airport. The NTSB, which has sounded the alarm about close calls and runway incursions for years, last month found the deadly January 2025 mid-air collision of an American ?Airlines regional jet and an Army helicopter was caused in part because the high workload "degraded controller performance and situation awareness". Homendy said the tower had standard staffing for a Sunday night. She added that there were two controllers working in a glass-enclosed section of the airport's traffic control tower. Homendy said on Tuesday that the NTSB will interview the local controller who started at 10:45 p.m. ET after a shift change 15 minutes earlier and whose interactions with different planes and the truck were heard on liveatc.net. A separate controller in charge was providing clearances for departing aircraft. It is not clear who was conducting the duties of ground controller, or assigning directions to airport vehicles. Air traffic controllers make the decisions about when planes can land and take off, and when ground vehicles can enter runways. The controller who made the call for the Air Canada flight ?to land had been trying to find a gate for a separate United Airlines flight that complained of a bad odor, according to the recording. The incident has raised questions about whether the controller was distracted by the United Airlines flight, which had declared an emergency. "I would caution pointing fingers at controllers and saying distraction was involved," she said. "This is a heavy workload environment."

"ASDE-X did not generate an alert due to the close proximity of vehicles merging and unmerging near the runway, resulting in the inability to create a track of high confidence," NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy told reporters in New York. ASDE-X, or the Airport Surface Detection Equipment Model X, is a surveillance system designed to help reduce runway incursions that allows air traffic controllers to track surface movement of aircraft and vehicles. Homendy also said the truck did not have a transponder, unlike similar vehicles at other airports in the U.S. The Federal Aviation Administration has encouraged airports to equip firetrucks with transponders because it makes the vehicles' movement easier to track at busy airports. She said it is unclear if an alerting technology would have prevented the incident since it happened so fast. Air crashes typically are caused by multiple factors with the investigation's goal to improve aviation safety and not assign blame. U.S. air safety experts have said communications between the plane ?that was landing, the controller and the trucks would be key areas of the investigation. The collision has raised questions about the controller's workload and staffing at the busy New York airport. The NTSB, which has sounded the alarm about close calls and runway incursions for years, last month found the deadly January 2025 mid-air collision of an American ?Airlines regional jet and an Army helicopter was caused in part because the high workload "degraded controller performance and situation awareness". Homendy said the tower had standard staffing for a Sunday night. She added that there were two controllers working in a glass-enclosed section of the airport's traffic control tower. Homendy said on Tuesday that the NTSB will interview the local controller who started at 10:45 p.m. ET after a shift change 15 minutes earlier and whose interactions with different planes and the truck were heard on liveatc.net. A separate controller in charge was providing clearances for departing aircraft. It is not clear who was conducting the duties of ground controller, or assigning directions to airport vehicles. Air traffic controllers make the decisions about when planes can land and take off, and when ground vehicles can enter runways. The controller who made the call for the Air Canada flight ?to land had been trying to find a gate for a separate United Airlines flight that complained of a bad odor, according to the recording. The incident has raised questions about whether the controller was distracted by the United Airlines flight, which had declared an emergency. "I would caution pointing fingers at controllers and saying distraction was involved," she said. "This is a heavy workload environment."
