      ROLLING FORK, Miss. (AP) — Help began pouring into one of the poorest regions of the U.S. after a deadly tornado wrought a path of destruction in the Mississippi Delta, even as furious new storms Sunday struck Georgia, where two tigers briefly escaped their badly damaged safari park.

      Berlin climate proposal fails to get enough yes votes to win

      BERLIN (AP) — A Sunday referendum in Berlin that would have forced the city to ramp up its climate goals failed because there weren't enough votes in favor of the proposal, the German news agency dpa reported. After about 98% of the votes had been counted, the supporters of the proposal were just ahead of the opponents of such a change in the law, according to an announcement by the city-state's election administration. However, that result only met one requirement for a successful proposal. The

      OMAHA, Neb.

      Pray for rain: Spanish farmers hold unique Mass amid drought

If it doesn't rain in the next two weeks, he says there's little chance of saving the harvest. What can be done? For the mountain villagers of L'Espunyola, the answer is divine intervention.

      Veto puts Kentucky in thick of fight over transgender rights

      FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear's veto of a bill aimed at transgender health care puts the state in the middle of a national fight, but with more immediate consequences as the state's looming election offers an early test on the state-by-state assault on gender-affirming care for minors.

      US House speaker says lawmakers to move forward with TikTok bill

      U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Kevin McCarthy said on Sunday lawmakers will move forward with legislation to address national security worries about TikTok, alleging China's government had access to the short video app's user data. In the United States, there are growing calls to ban TikTok, owned by China-based company ByteDance, or to pass bipartisan legislation to give President Joe Biden's administration legal authority to seek a ban. "The House will be moving forward with legislation to protect Americans from the technological tentacles of the Chinese Communist Party," McCarthy said on Twitter.

      States' divisions on abortion widen after Roe overturned

      NASHVILLE, Tenn.

Tennessee law requires doctors to prove in court that they were saving a woman’s life when they performed an abortion.
