Newly-released emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate suggest President Donald Trump was connected to the financier’s network in deeper ways than previously disclosed, though legal liability remains unproven.

President Trump signed a bipartisan deal to reopen the government through Jan. 30, 2026, after a record 43-day shutdown disrupted millions of Americans and federal services nationwide.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday declined to hear a case that sought to overturn its 2015 ruling legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide, signaling that the landmark decision remains settled law—for now.
