WASHINGTON (AP) - It's deadline day for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on COVID-19 relief, with the contours of a potential deal taking shape behind the scenes even as President Donald Trump's GOP allies are recoiling at the administration's tolerance for a $2 trillion package.Pelosi negotiated with Mnuchin for nearly an hour on Monday, and her office said they are continuing to narrow their differences — though the progress may be coming too late to immediately deliver on jobless aid, a second round of $1,200 direct payments, and money for schools, testing, and vaccines.

How Trump impacted the fight against climate change

Donald Trump rolled back one of the last major environmental regulations made under the Obama administration, allowing oil and gas companies to not have to detect and repair methane leaks — a potent contributor to climate change.The rollback was the latest in a series of dismantling former President Barack Obama’s efforts to cut climate-changing emissions from the oil, gas and coal industries.“It’s very classic,” said John Smol, a professor in the biology department at Queen’s University and Canada Research Chair of Environmental Change. “It’s short term thinking and making it easier to pollute.

A Florida loss would make it nearly impossible for Trump to reach the 270 electoral votes needed to retain the White House over former Democratic Vice President Joe Biden.Under state law, counties can offer up to two weeks of early voting and many do, including Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach and other population centers.
