Kris Boyd was on the minds of his stunned but grateful New York Jets teammates as they returned to work a day after he was shot and wounded in midtown Manhattan. Boyd remained in critical but stable condition Monday. A motive for the shooting remains under investigation, and authorities say it’s not clear if Boyd was targeted by the shooter. No other injuries were reported and no arrests have been made. Boyd hasn’t played this season, his first with the Jets, after going on the season-ending injured reserve list in August.

Cole Hamels, Ryan Braun, and Matt Kemp are among 12 newcomers on the Baseball Hall of Fame ballot. Carlos Beltrán leads 15 holdovers after falling 19 votes short in 2025. Other first-time eligibles include Howie Kendrick and Daniel Murphy. Beltrán, a nine-time All-Star, received 70.3% of votes in 2025. He was the only player named in a 2020 report on the Astros' sign-stealing scandal. Other holdovers include steroids-tainted stars Alex Rodriguez and Manny Ramirez. Ballots are due by Dec. 31, with results announced Jan. 20. Inductions will take place on July 26.

The acting chief of the Federal Emergency Management Agency has left his post just six months in, officials say, marking another disruption in a year of staff departures and policy changes. The Department of Homeland Security did not comment on the reason for David Richardson's departure. Richardson, a former Marine Corps officer, had no prior emergency management experience when he took on the role. His leadership was questioned after he delayed responding to deadly floods in Texas. FEMA has faced major upheaval since President Trump returned to office, with significant staff turnover and funding cuts.

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Corona Capital drew top acts to its multi-stage lineup in Mexico City for its 15th year. The annual international music festival is a showcase for artists breaking into Latin American markets and a cultural highlight that…

The U.N. Security Council is set to vote on a U.S. plan for Gaza, but a big question remains: Will Russia veto it? The U.S. resolution would provide international backing for a stabilization force and envisions a possible future pathway to an independent Palestinian state. After nearly two weeks of negotiations on the U.S. resolution, Russia suddenly circulated a rival proposal late Thursday that would strip out reference to a transitional authority meant to be headed by President Donald Trump. The vote is a crucial next step for the fragile ceasefire and efforts to outline Gaza’s future following two years of war between Israel and Hamas.

U.S. immigration agents have arrested more than 130 people across Charlotte, North Carolina during the first days of an enforcement blitz. The immigration sweep that started over the weekend in Charlotte comes on the heels of similar operations in Los Angeles and Chicago. It’s all part of President Donald Trump’s mass deportation efforts that have sent the the military and immigration agents into Democratic-run cities. The Department of Homeland Security says it’s focusing on North Carolina’s biggest city because of so-called sanctuary policies that limit cooperation between local authorities and immigration agents.

Archbishop Stephen Wood, the top leader of the Anglican Church in North America, has been suspended from ministry amid allegations of sexual and other misconduct. Wood’s suspension was approved by his fellow bishops and took effect Sunday. It doesn’t imply guilt or innocence, but ministers can be suspended when it’s “in the best interests of the Church,” according to an official statement. Wood was accused in October of misconduct by a group of church members. The statement gave no update on proceedings against Wood. The denomination was formed in 2009 by conservatives who split from the more liberal U.S. Episcopal Church.

Purdue has reclaimed the No. 1 spot in the AP Top 25 men's college basketball poll. The Boilermakers jumped over Houston, which spent just one week at the top. UConn, Arizona, and Duke also received No. 1 votes. UConn stayed at No. 3, while No. 4 Arizona and No. 5 Duke swapped spots. No. 6 Louisville made a big climb, moving up six spots. No. 8 Illinois also moved up, while Texas Tech and UCLA dropped.

The Supreme Court has agreed to review a policy used under past administrations to deny migrants a chance to apply for asylum on the Mexican border until space opened up to process claims. The justices said Monday they will hear the Trump administration’s appeal of lower court rulings that struck down the practice known as metering, in which U.S. border agents capped the number of people seeking asylum at border crossings by prohibiting migrants from setting foot in the U.S. The administration pressed for the high court’s intervention even after President Donald Trump suspended the asylum system in January.  The case will be argued early next year.

Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s estranged sister has publicly accused him of being a longtime drug addict whose alleged cocaine dependence has led to problems in his governance including corruption. The allegations were rejected by Marcos' spokesperson who said it was a recycled issue that has long been disproven. Communications Undersecretary Claire Castro said Sen. Imee Marcos’ baseless accusations Monday night against his own brother may have been a desperate attempt to distract ongoing investigations into a corruption scandal involving flood control projects that may implicate her allies in the Senate.

The House is heading towards a vote on a bill to force the Justice Department to release the case files it has collected on the late financier Jeffrey Epstein. Lawmakers are pushing past a monthslong effort by President Donald Trump and Republican leaders to stop the effort. Many lawmakers say the Justice Department needs to release its case files on Epstein. They argue that the release could show that other people were aware or complicit in Epstein’s sexual abuse. House Democrats and a few key Republicans have been able to force a vote on the bill to do that by using a rarely successful measure called a discharge petition.

Tribal citizens are among communities navigating the impacts of massive cuts in federal spending and the effects of the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. A funding increase for tribal colleges and universities before the shutdown was welcome news, but college leaders remain uneasy about the government’s financial commitments. Those federal dollars are part of some of the country's oldest legal obligations. Tribal college and university presidents and Native American education advocates worry they could be further eroded and the passage of Indigenous knowledge they ensure will be threatened.

A new report finds over 74,000 people enrolled in experiments have been affected by the National Institutes of Health’s funding cuts. Between the end of February and mid-August, funding lapsed for 383 studies that were testing treatments for conditions like cancer, heart disease and brain disease. Some studies were still in progress when the funding was axed, meaning that patients could have lost access to medication or been left with an unmonitored device implant. The NIH has cut an estimated $12 billion in research projects under the Trump administration. The new study was published Monday in JAMA Internal Medicine.

Former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown could face up to 30 years in prison if convicted of attempted murder because a firearm was used, a prosecutor said Monday. Brown appeared via Zoom at a brief arraignment hearing in which his lawyer, Mark Eiglarsh, repeated that Brown already entered a not guilty plea. He was released from jail last week on a $25,000 bond and required to wear an ankle monitor. An attempted murder charge in Florida carries a maximum 15-year prison sentence, a prosecutor said because Brown allegedly used a gun he could face double that time behind bars because of a firearm sentencing enhancement. It also carries a potential 20-year minimum mandatory sentence upon conviction.

A new analysis of consumer data shows that more people in the United States are falling behind on their utility bills. Past-due balances jumped 9.7% in the second quarter over the same period last year,  according to the Century Foundation, the left-leaning think tank that did the study. The study comes as President Donald Trump has been promoting the buildout of the AI industry — a sector that uses a lot of electricity. And voters have also said they're worried about the high cost of living. The foundation says nearly 6 million households have utility debt “so severe” that it will soon be reported to collection agencies.
