Washington CNN —Former President Donald Trump told two fictional stories about Oprah Winfrey on Saturday – one of them new, another he has been telling for at least 11 years. In a social media post late Saturday night, Trump wrote, “A long time ago, Oprah Winfrey asked me to do her last Network Television Show. He did not appear on the last episode of “The Oprah Winfrey Show” in 2011, nor even in the star-studded final week of the show. At a campaign rally in North Carolina earlier on Saturday, Trump said: “And didn’t Oprah ask her about her time at McDonald’s? Rather, Winfrey passingly mentioned the McDonald’s job during her introduction of Harris – before the vice president walked onstage for their conversation.

CNN —Next week, an already very public debate over whether Ukraine should be allowed to use long-range Western-supplied missiles on Russian soil will come under an even brighter international spotlight. It was almost exactly a year ago, also during an in-person meeting with Zelensky in the United States, that Biden made the decision to supply the ATACMS to Ukraine. In both cases, Ukraine promised not to use them on Russian territory. Russia recently relocated planes from two bases near the border further east, according to one US official.

☆ Weakened and infiltrated by Israel, Hezbollah arrives at an existential crossroads

At least 45 people, including women and children, were killed, along with 16 Hezbollah militants, including the Radwan force leader Ibrahim Aqil and senior commander Ahmad Wehbe. Weakened militarily and stripped of its cloak of secrecy, Hezbollah has arrived at the most delicate phase of its decades-long fight against Israel. The Israeli military did not respond to questions about whether the site was impacted but officials confirmed direct hits nearby. This was one of the deepest hits by Hezbollah since the last all-out war between Lebanon and Israel in 2006. What is certain is that there are new unwritten rules of engagement between Hezbollah and Israel.

☆ Boeing union members are angry they lost their pension plan. They’re not likely to get it back
▼ + stars: | 2024-09-22 | by ( Chris Isidore | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +9 min

Now unions are pushing back, demanding the return of traditional pension plans their members lost in past concession deals. First, a traditional pension plan that pays retirees, or their survivors, a fixed amount of money every month until they die, known as a defined benefit plan. Far less than 1% have only a traditional pension plan. The loss of the traditional pension plan at Boeing 10 years ago is one of the issues driving the strike this year. But the deck is stacked against that kind of reopening of a pension plan at Boeing, even with “pension or bust” signs on the current picket lines.

▼ + stars: | 2024-09-22 | by ( Harry Enten | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +7 min

On average, according to the latest CNN Poll of Polls, Harris is ahead by 3 points. Instead, it is a race to 270 electoral votes through the Electoral College. Per CNN’s current race ratings, Harris starts at 225 electoral votes to Trump’s 219. A win in Nebraska’s 2nd District would likely give Harris exactly 270 electoral votes when added to Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Some Nebraska Republicans, urged on by Trump, want to change the state’s method of allocating electoral votes to a winner-take-all format.

As the Fed lowers its benchmark rate, mortgage rates are expected to ease in 2024 and 2025. A lot of people assume that when the Fed cuts rates, mortgage rates will drop, too. By the time the Fed actually gets around to cutting rates, mortgage rates typically already reflect the impact of that cut. 5-Year Mortgage Rate TrendsHere's how 30-year and 15-year mortgage rates have trended over the last five years, according to Freddie Mac data. Mortgage rates are determined by a variety of different factors, including larger economic trends, Federal Reserve policy, your state's current mortgage rates, the type of loan you're getting, and your personal financial profile.

And the only thing that really makes that serviceable is the interest rates are still pretty low. As to where US interest rates seem to be going in the near future, the answer is lower.

While hot water is going to give you the best clean, using it often isn't necessary or good for your laundry. I like to think of hot water washes as calling in the power washer — it's for when something is really stained, dirty, or smelly. But there are ways to get an extra good clean without always using hot water. Plus, you reduce your energy usage by 90% when you stop using hot water to clean clothes.

Both Donald Trump and JD Vance's many press interviews have sparked negative news cycles. Atkeson also gave the analogy that the effect of Harris' media strategy on voters is like what happens when a romantic relationship first begins. So the contrast could be something that doesn't look good optically for the Harris campaign."

Ree WinterMaking a nearly 24-hour trek four times a year is a hassle, but Changi Airport has made the harrowing journey a little easier to swallow. The blend of advanced travel tech, luxury amenities, and thoughtful design makes Changi more than just a stopover — it's an experience I look forward to every time I travel.
