| Dems Cave after Gaining Nothing for Weeks-Long Shutdown |
| by Joshua Arnold |

| Sudan Descends 'Into an Even Darker Hell' as Massacre Spreads beyond El Fasher |
| by Suzanne Bowdey |
| While the world looks on in shock at the wave of torture, rape, and savagery unfolding in Sudan, the United Nations has warned that the situation is only escalating. The sickening satellite images - of blood pooling on the sand from the mass executions in El Fasher - are just the orbit's view of the still-unfolding crisis. While a trickle of people have made it to safety over the last two weeks, tens of thousands are still trapped in the brutal nightmare that no one can wake up from. |

| Why Is Trump Copying Biden's Economic Playbook? |
| by Joshua Arnold |
| The Republicans' 2025 election losses have certainly gotten the Trump administration's attention. After voters told exit pollsters that their top concern was an unaffordable economy, administration officials have announced a slate of new policies designed to make the economy more affordable. But solving a problem is harder than announcing a policy, and many of the Trump administration's latest moves sound like they were borrowed from the same Bidenomics playbook that failed both on its own terms and with voters. |

| SCOTUS Rejects Challenge to Obergefell Ruling |
| by S.A. McCarthy |
| The U.S. Supreme Court disappointed many social conservatives and American Christians by denying the opportunity to reverse its 2015 ruling on same-sex marriage. As The Washington Stand previously reported, former county clerk Kim Davis had petitioned the nation's top court to hear her challenge against Obergefell v. Hodges, a ruling which resulted in Davis being prosecuted for her Christian beliefs on sexuality and marriage. In a list of orders released Monday, the Supreme Court declined to hear Davis's case. "The petition for a writ of certiorari is denied," the court wrote. |
