The Trump administration said on Monday that it would provide an initial $2 billion next year to fund humanitarian aid coordinated by the UN. The move will likely keep the U.S. as the biggest international aid donor in 2026, even as it drastically scales back support.

The Supreme Court’s refusal to let the Trump administration deploy National Guard troops in the Chicago area was in large part the result of a friend-of-the-court brief written over a weekend and submitted by a Georgetown law professor.
Here's who he is, and why the brief proved so important.

How a Scholar Nudged the Supreme Court Toward Its Troop Deployment Ruling

"This was eyes-rolled-back-in-your-head good. The fat from the chicken and the olive oil, the acid and spice from the jalapeños, sweetness from the corn, and generous salt, this was perfect. So, so, so good. My husband is still talking about it."
Sheet-Pan Chicken Thighs With Spicy Corn Recipe
The spicy, salty jalapeño brine balances sweet corn kernels, which roast on a sheet pan alongside chicken thighs in this simple, summery weeknight meal The chicken, marinated with basil, garlic and a little mayonnaise, stays juicy even after a brief stint under the broiler You can serve this hot from the oven or at room temperature — it’s equally good each way — and cold leftovers are excellent piled onto lettuce or avocado for a salad the next day.
