This week, the president attacked Supreme Court Justices for getting in the way of his administration’s efforts to deport migrants, saying that the Court can’t afford trials for everyone they’re seeking to remove from the U.S.
And in health news, scientists say that the measles outbreak in the Southwest is now the largest since 2000.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio shared plans this week to drastically reduce the size of the agency he’s charged with leading, saying that it had become bloated with bureaucracy and beholden to radical political ideology.

Pakistan has denied any involvement in the attack and issued countermeasures. It’s the deadliest attack of its kind in 25 years.
