Payton May and his military dog Yyacob spent their first Thanksgiving together in the throes of a mission in Iraq. And May, back in the fall of 2021, was a new K-9 handler deployed overseas for the first time. Instead, he ended up applying to be a K-9 handler. The 2016 National Defense Authorization Act requires K-9 handlers to be given first rights of adoption after their military working dogs retire. He knew exactly who that was.”May reunites Monday with his retiring military working dog, Yyacob, thanks in part to the charity, American Humane.

☆ Supreme Court’s transgender care fight creates conservative ‘reckoning’ over parental rights
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-27 | by ( John Fritze | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +7 min

But the Supreme Court’s upcoming and potentially explosive transgender care case is dividing conservatives, with many of those same groups backing Tennessee’s ban on puberty blockers and hormone treatments, which critics say injects the state into family medical decisions and overrides parental rights. Tennessee, and many conservatives who support the state’s position, argues parental rights aren’t a factor in the case. Conservative groups have lined up in federal courts to make nearly identical parental rights arguments in other cases. That separate lawsuit specifically asked whether the state law violates the “fundamental right of parents” to make decisions about the medical care of their children. In allowing the Tennessee ban to take effect last year, a divided 6th US Circuit Court of Appeals brushed aside the parental rights arguments.

For some, the fear of tariffs means stocking up on cars, skincare, and hair products. But following Donald Trump's presidential election victory, Hull heard that car costs could surge if his tariff plans are enacted. On the campaign trail, Trump proposed a 60% tariff on imports from China and 10% to 20% on goods from other countries. AdvertisementConsidering the larger scale of Trump's proposals this time around, trade experts have identified goods, including car parts, apparel, and electronics, as products at risk of getting more expensive under Trump's tariff proposals. With so much uncertainty regarding Trump's tariff proposals, it's difficult to plan.

☆ Falling home prices and fed-up residents show the Texas housing boom is slowing

The Texas housing market has cooled after a frenzy of activity during the pandemic. The shift in attitudes is an indicator for the state's housing market, which boomed during the pandemic. Median home prices in Texas have fallen around 7% from their highs in mid-2022, according to data from Redfin. The decline is an outlier compared to the broader US housing market, which is still prices hovering around record highs. But those issues are minor relative to things like economic growth and housing affordability, Fairweather says, which she described as two of the biggest factors that could determine if the Texas housing market picks back up.

But as other pandemic Zoomtowns continue to see increases in prices and rents, Austin stands alone in its change of fortune. Housing in Austin has been through so many extreme distortions that nobody really knows what "normal" even means anymore. All told, Austin's housing stock has ballooned by more than 76,000 units since 2020, an 8.34% increase that includes single-family homes, condos, and townhomes.
