| Dems Try to Stop Tuberville by Setting Fire to Senate Rules |
| by Suzanne Bowdey |
| In football, you don't get to change the rules if you're losing. But in the Senate, Democrats (and sadly, some Republicans) have decided that's the only way to win against one coach: Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala).

| Higher Inflation Sticks Around for the Holidays |
| by Joshua Arnold |
| Inflation remains elevated despite a brief dip, according to October's Consumer Price Index (CPI), released Tuesday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The topline numbers - a 0.0% increase from September and a 3.2% increase from a year earlier - masks the true toll inflation has taken on American families.
