Hurricane Helene moves through Georgia after making landfall in Florida. Kamala Harris visits the southern border in Arizona. The storm churned ashore about 10 miles west-southwest of Perry, Florida, at about 11:10 p.m. and with maximum sustained winds of 140 mph, the National Hurricane Center said. Life-threatening storm surges, winds and rain remained threats, the National Hurricane Center said. Republicans have labeled Harris a “border czar” and questioned why she hasn’t made enough progress on securing the border in her four years as vice president.

Republicans stand a good chance of erasing the Democrats’ narrow 51-49 Senate majority in November, a hard reality that complicates Harris' transition planning. Members of Harris’ transition team have studied that one — the handoff from Ronald Reagan to George H.W. Harris' team is operating under an unusually compressed timeline and is still building the basic apparatus needed to vet potential hires and staff an administration. Last month, Harris' campaign appointed Yohannes Abraham to run the team that is preparing for a transfer of power. He came to his new role with direct experience, having been executive director of Biden’s transition in 2020.

Two years after an Alabama prisoner was spared when staff members struggled to execute him by lethal injection, officials plan to try again Thursday — using the rare method of nitrogen gas. He filed a federal lawsuit in March seeking to halt his execution, citing the state's past execution failures and concerns that the method of nitrogen hypoxia would add pain and prolong death. "The resolution of this case confirms that Alabama's nitrogen hypoxia system is reliable and humane," Marshall said in a previous statement. Alabama officials have insisted in court filings that nitrogen hypoxia is "painless because it causes unconsciousness in seconds" and death within minutes. "Whether by lethal injection or nitrogen suffocation, the myth of the 'humane execution' is a lie fewer and fewer people believe," Foa said in a statement.

As rain poured down on Atlanta Wednesday, Major League Baseball announced two pivotal games were postponed due to the wet conditions. The postponements comes as Hurricane Helene nears, along with a cold front leading to a slow-moving line of showers and storms on Wednesday. The combination will make for “an unprecedented” weather event in North Georgia, according to the National Weather Service. The series between the two division rivals was seen as one of the most crucial of the 2024 MLB season to determine the final spots in the playoffs. The Braves are a half-game behind the Arizona Diamondbacks for the third and final wild card.

☆ FDA approves Bristol Myers Squibb's schizophrenia drug, the first new type of treatment in decades

The Food and Drug Administration on Thursday approved Bristol Myers Squibb 's highly anticipated schizophrenia drug Cobenfy, the first novel type of treatment for the debilitating, chronic mental disorder in more than seven decades. Bristol Myers Squibb expects the twice-daily pill, which will be sold under the brand name Cobenfy, to be available in late October, executives told CNBC. Cobenfy could also be a huge long-term sales opportunity for Bristol Myers Squibb, which faces pressure to offset the potential loss of revenue from top-selling treatments that will see their patents expire. But they said the drug will likely have a slow launch, so it may not meaningfully contribute to Bristol Myers Squibb's top line in 2024 and 2025. "We've helped people, we've improved outcomes, we've provided caregivers and physicians with another tool that they can use."

☆ Helene checklist: How to prepare for the hurricane
▼ + stars: | 2024-09-26 | by ( Brenda Goodman | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

Hurricane Helene is expected to make landfall Thursday night along the Florida Gulf Coast near Tallahassee and then veer north, maintaining hurricane- and tropical storm-force winds and torrential rainfall into North Georgia and up to Tennessee. Up to 18 inches of rain is expected into the Carolinas, the National Weather Service said Thursday. About 40 million Americans are living under direct hurricane or tropical storm warnings across five states, according to CNN Supervising Meteorologist Brandon Miller. But by 2 or 3 a.m., those winds are going to be 50 to 60 miles per hour, potentially, and so you need to prepare for that before you go to sleep,” Miller said. “That’s something people can do: Pick a room in their house that is the most protected from falling debris, and sleep there tonight,” Miller said.

CNN first reported on the US law enforcement action. Ivanov and Shakhmametov are accused of helping run “carding” websites like Joker’s Stash that sell stolen credit and debit card information. The sites have advertised financial information stolen from tens of millions of Americans, according to US law enforcement. For years, Joker’s Stash was a dominant player in the Russian-speaking criminal underground. After US and European law enforcement agencies seized some computer servers used by Joker’s Stash, the forum said it was shutting down in 2021.

A study in June found a decrease in prescriptions for birth control pills and emergency contraceptives in states with the most restrictions on abortion. South Carolina has one of the country’s strictest, prohibiting abortions at six weeks of pregnancy. Many women’s health centers, including abortion clinics where women had often gotten their birth control, closed after the Dobbs decision. New Morning attributes its success, in part, to tapping the power of primary care providers who aren’t usually trained in providing birth control. Following the Dobbs decision, women across the country have had to scramble to access birth control or search for longer-term solutions.

The House is set to vote Wednesday to formally condemn President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and other officials over their handling of the 2021 U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. The resolution also points to Harris’ April 2021 comments to CNN that she played a central role in Biden's decision to pull troops from Afghanistan. Former President Donald Trump and Republican allies have sought to blame Harris for the Afghanistan withdrawal after she jumped into the presidential race in July. Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, Trump’s running mate, last month blasted Harris over the administration's handling of the Afghanistan withdrawal.

Tim Walz in Sen. JD Vance’s final vice presidential debate rehearsals, a source directly involved with the preparations told NBC News. Former President Donald Trump’s campaign, including key members of Vance’s team, has been honing his debate strategy for more than a month, the source said. Jason Miller, a senior Trump campaign adviser, and Vance’s wife, Usha, have been involved in the sessions, the source said, along with Vance’s closest political advisers. The choice of Emmer as a stand-in for Walz provides the Vance team with another Minnesotan and someone who, like Vance and Walz, has deep Midwest roots. “The main focus has been familiarizing [Vance] with Walz’s debate style and policy positions,” said the source involved with the preparations.

Few address child care, for infants or beyond. Since Dobbs, seven states have had ballot initiatives on the topic, with the abortion rights position winning in each state. In November, at least 10 more initiatives aimed at restoring or protecting abortion rights will be in front of voters across the country. But Brahm has also rallied an array of political, faith, academic, medical and advocacy leaders into a coalition called “Building a Post-Roe Future” that calls for more affordable health care and child care, expanded child tax credits, paid parental leave, flexible work hours and enforced pre-natal support. Though paid parental leave has been a big topic of discussion around the country, the only states to enact such measures since Dobbs are those where abortion rights are protected.

The Fed cut interest rates in its September meeting, which is the first cut in years. Experts say not to rush to action with your cash savings — but start doing some research. But, the Fed finally cut interest rates by 50 basis points at its meeting on September 18 — the first rate cut since March 2020. This is true now, but it will be just as true if the Fed continues to drop the federal funds rate in the future. However, interest rate increases could lead to having to sell the note on the secondary market at a loss.
