President Biden arrived on Monday in Cape Verde, an island nation off the coast of Africa, for the first stop of the only trip to sub-Saharan Africa of his presidency, a journey shadowed by his decision to pardon his son of tax and gun convictions. Air Force One touched down for refueling at Amílcar Cabral International Airport on the island of Sal on a bright, sunny morning, before continuing on to Angola, where the president will work to bolster American ties. While waiting for the plane to be readied for the next leg of the flight, Mr. Biden met at an airport lounge with Ulisses Correia e Silva, the prime minister of Cabo Verde. The president is scheduled to arrive by evening in Luanda, the Angolan capital, where he will visit a slavery museum and highlight a new $1 billion rail corridor as a primary example of his administration’s plan to help lift the region’s economy.

Russian and Syrian fighter jets struck targets across territory seized by rebels in northwestern Syria on Monday, according to Syrian state media and the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. The forceful response made clear that Russia, one of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s staunchest allies, intended to keep supporting him in the face of a sudden rebel advance. It is not yet clear whether they will be able to help hold off the rebels. On the other side, the rebels’ startling gains appeared to embolden the opposition in exile, with one of its leaders demanding on Monday that Mr. al-Assad commit to a political transition. The opposition leader, Hadi al-Bahra, spoke from Turkey as rebels continued their advance through Aleppo, once Syria’s largest city, and the surrounding areas.

The Chicago Bears will get a head start on their search for a new head coach, but who will be among the prime candidates for the job? On the first football Sunday of the post-Matt Eberflus era in Chicago, NFL insiders weighed in on who the Bears may try to bring in for interviews as they conduct their search. Ian Rapoport, appearing on NFL Network’s NFL Gameday, said the team will consider a multitude of top candidates for the job. Things are likely to move slowly for now for the Bears, as the NFL season will roll into January, preventing them from interviewing candidates within the league. They will likely be able to conduct interviews during the postseason, but an announcement on a hire won’t come until their candidate’s season has concluded.

LONDON — The countryside came to the capital as thousands of farmers packed into London streets around Britain’s Parliament to protest changes to tax rules. Some drove tractors, others brought hay bales, many carried signs saying “no farms, no food.” All were protesting against the new Labour government’s decision to tax inherited agricultural property. Despite the gray skies and wet weather, thousands of farmers gathered in central London. “Ministers claim the inheritance tax cap hits only the rich, but it could put 70,000 farms — big and small — at risk. We are not — claiming that 70,000 farms will shut down or have to pay the tax a year.” The website defines a generation as 40 years.

For almost a year, Hezbollah vowed not to stop battling Israel until it agreed to a ceasefire in Gaza. “I don’t think a ceasefire in Lebanon has changed much for the dynamics of a Gaza ceasefire,” said Tahani Mustafa, senior Palestine analyst at International Crisis Group, a Brussels-based think tank. The outgoing Biden administration maintains that there might now be “newfound opportunity” to drive forward a ceasefire and hostage deal in Gaza. More than 250 people were taken hostage and about 1,200 killed during the Hamas attacks on Israel on October 7, 2023. “For the love of God, stop, stop, stop (the war).”

But in many homes, particularly African American ones, sweet potato pie remains supreme. This abundance of sweet potatoes, both in pastry and other forms, led to sweet potato pie entering the soul food canon. Illustration by Leah Abucayan/CNNThe importance of sweet potato pie to African Americans has continued through generations.

My biscuits were slightly irregular because I didn't press my dough out consistently. I made Joanna Gaines' biscuits that are served at Magnolia Table. I definitely recommend taking your time shaping the dough and cutting your rounds if you try this recipe. That wasn't a problem here, but I could see that being annoying if I wanted to make this recipe for breakfast and woke up hungry. Next time I wanted to have them for breakfast, I would probably let the dough chill overnight, as it would make serving the biscuits for breakfast or brunch nearly stress-free.

Lynne Mitchell/Getty ImagesProfessional baker and winner of TLC's "Cake Boss: Next Great Baker" Dana Herbert told Business Insider that he recommends adding an herbed caramel sauce to ready-made pies. "Add some cinnamon, rosemary, thyme, ginger, or cardamom to warm caramel sauce and serve it with the pie," Herbert said. If you're not sure whether a particular herb would pair well with your pie, Herbert recommended closing your eyes and smelling the herb or spice — if you can detect something sweet in the scent, it's probably OK to use.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield filed a federal lawsuit against a financial firm owned by his father, James Mayfield, accusing the company of failing to pay back nearly $12 million taken without his authorization. "For the period of time that Plaintiffs’ funds were being funneled to Defendants, Plaintiffs were the primary source of funding and capitalization for Defendants. Under the agreement, Camwood was required to repay $11.7 million plus interest beginning Sept. 30, the lawsuit states. "It is now clear that Defendants had no intention of making Plaintiffs whole when they entered into the Settlement Agreement," the lawsuit states. The suit says that because Camwood has failed to follow through on the settlement agreement, Mayfield was left with no choice but to file a lawsuit.
