One Supreme Court Case Could Mess Up Chunks of the Tax Code
WASHINGTON—A case that could punch holes in the federal tax code heads to the Supreme Court on Tuesday. The court will hear arguments in Moore v. U.S., which challenges a piece of the 2017 tax law that imposed a one-time levy on profits that companies had accumulated outside the U.S. But its implications could reach much further, providing the justices an opportunity to define what Congress can tax under the Constitution—and what it can’t. Charles and Kathleen Moore argue that when the law passed, they hadn’t realized income from their investment in an India-based company and thus couldn’t be taxed.

Exclusive-Boeing eliminated from US Air Force's 'Doomsday Plane' competition
The U.S. Air Force has eliminated Boeing from its competition to develop a successor to the E-4B Nightwatch, Boeing confirmed on Friday, shaking up the battle to build the next version of the aircraft known as the "Doomsday Plane" due to its ability to survive a nuclear war. The move leaves privately-held defense contractor Sierra Nevada Corp as the lone company publicly vying for the Survivable Airborne Operations Center (SAOC) contract to eventually replace a fleet that has been in use since the 1970s. The Air Force, which plans to award a SAOC contract in 2024, declined to comment on whether other firms had submitted bids.

Texas Ordered to Remove Buoy Barrier at Southern Border
A federal appeals court has ordered the state of Texas to remove a 1,000-foot floating barrier deployed in the Rio Grande to block migrants from crossing the border illegally. A three-judge panel of the Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 2-1 Friday to reinstate a lower court’s ruling that the barrier illegally blocked the river and should be taken out of the water. In a September ruling that was later put on hold pending this appeal, U.S. District Judge David Ezra, a Reagan appointee, ordered state officials not to expand the barrier and remove it from the water.

Teen girls are being victimized by deepfake nudes. One family is pushing for more protections
A mother and her 14-year-old daughter are advocating for better protections for victims after AI-generated nude images of the teen and other female classmates were circulated at a high school in New Jersey. Meanwhile, on the other side of the country, officials are investigating an incident involving a teenage boy who allegedly used artificial intelligence to create and distribute similar images of other students – also teen girls - that attend a high school in suburban Seattle, Washington. According to an analysis by independent researcher Genevieve Oh that was shared with The Associated Press, more than 143,000 new deepfake videos were posted online this year, which surpasses every other year combined.

Palestinian Islamic Jihad Stresses 'All-for-All' Hostage Demand
If Israel wishes to secure the release of all Israeli soldiers held captive in Gaza, it will have to release all of the thousands of Palestinians held in Israeli prisons, a spokesman for Palestinian Islamic Jihad, a Hamas ally, said Friday. “The release of Israeli soldiers is subject to the all-for-all equation,” said the spokesman, Daoud Shehab, in an interview with Al Jazeera. The Israel-Hamas cease-fire deal that expired Friday hinged on daily one-for-three exchanges: For every one civilian hostage released from Gaza, Israel freed three Palestinian prisoners.
