Live from MPR News, I'm Jial Snyder, the Supreme Court is set to hear argumen...
on birthright citizenship.
“It's guaranteed by the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, but President Trump argues”
that citizenship should not be guaranteed at birth, if the parents came to the U.S. illegally. It appears to me to go, "Montanarosa's public opinion is split on the matter." It's complicated and nuanced. I mean, Americans are heavily in favor of granting citizenship to children born to parents who were also born in the United States, or those who emigrated to the U.S. legally,
but they're split on or much less in support of automatic citizenship for children born to parents who immigrated illegally. For example, a Pew Research Center survey found 9 and 10 are for it for children born to U.S. citizens, but they were split 50 to 49 for babies born to those without legal status or who cross the border illegally.

"We strongly condemn these unacceptable incidents, and peacekeepers must never be a target."
Lequas says he's in constant contact with the Israeli military, which has expanded what he described as a buffer zone inside Lebanon, as it tries to push his balloff for their north. The U.N. is constrained in what it can do, Lequas says, "The U.N.'s mandate there ends this year."

"And in New York federal prosecutors are examining whether large payouts on prediction market sites like polymarket have violated insider trading laws," impures Bobby Allen reports. Polymarket betters earned hundreds of thousands of dollars on the timing of military strikes in Iran, and when Venezuela and Leader Nikolass Maduro was captured.
Now prosecutors in the southern district of New York are investigating the trades, CNN first
reported the probe. Both polymarket and its main competitor, Calshy, say they ban insider trading, but policing is largely left up to the platforms themselves. Polymarket has had many markets on wars and military actions that operates in overseas exchange based in Panama.
This spokesman for New York's U.S. Attorney's Office said, "Prediction markets are not outside the scope of anti-money laundering and insider trading laws. Billions of dollars are bet every week on Polymarket in Calshy." Bobby Allen and P.R. News. "This is NPR."

An Iowa native, Mary Beth Hurt, had a famous actress as her babysitter, Gene Seaburg. She studied acting at New York University and made her film debut in Woody Allen's 1978
drama "Interears," as an unhappy literary agent. "I sit there all day, meeting other people's manuscripts and halfway through, I lose interest.
