Congressional Democrats were split over whether to support the bill that would avert a government shutdown. In the end Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer voted for the bill.
A federal judge ordered several federal agencies to rehire tens of thousands of probationary employees who were fired.
President Donald Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff discussed Washington's ceasefire proposal to end the war in Ukraine with Moscow officials. Russian President Vladimir Putin said he was "in favor" and agreed in principle to the plan but has some conditions.
The government of Syria's Mohammad Al Sharaa announced a partnership with the Syrian Democratic Forces, a U.S. backed Kurdish rebel group. The move could be key in Syria's rebuilding.

Consider This from NPR - Trump says the economy is in ‘transition.’ What comes after?
"A little disturbance," "a period of transition," "a detox period." These are all phrases that President Trump and his administration have used to describe the economy, as the stock market has plunged in response to one tariff announcement after another.
Trump is adamant that his tariffs will ultimately bring revenue, jobs and factories to the U.S.
But economist Matt Slaughter, dean of the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College, is skeptical. He thinks Trump's strategy is a recipe for long-term economic pain, and that a recession is getting more likely by the day.

The Daily Signal - Victor Davis Hanson: Yes, Mr. Khalil, Your Actions Have Consequences
Would you give a student visa to a Hamas supporter?
In this edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words”, Hanson discusses the contentious detention and deportation of Mahmoud Khalil, a former Columbia University student with close ties to Columbia University Apartheid Divest, an anti-Israel student group that was thrust into the national spotlight when pro-Hamas student protesters occupied several academic buildings on Columbia’s campus last spring.
Hanson explores the balance between free speech rights and national security concerns, examining Khalil's support for vandalism, harassment, and groups labeled as terrorist organizations by the U.S. State Department.
"It wasn't what he said, but it was what he did. And he now gets his wish. He can go back to the Middle East and be a strong advocate for Hamas, in closer proximity to it."

Planet Money - How Tupperware took over our homes, with Decoder Ring
Tupperware is the stealthy star of our modern homes. These plastic storage containers are ubiquitous in our fridges, pantries, and closets. But the original product was revolutionary. So was its breakthrough sales strategy: the Tupperware Party.
Led in part by a charismatic housewife turned business innovator, Tupperware pioneered more than the party. Brownie Wise, and the company she came to represent, are behind a core sales technique that we might now recognize as influencer marketing.
The company was so successful at its peak, it reached almost cult status. But it didn't last.
On our latest episode: Tupperware's success and the company's demise. And how its descendants — in products, and in sales strategies — lived on.
This episode is in partnership with Decoder Ring. For even more on the legacy of Tupperware, listen to their full episode.
