CNN —Lionel Messi rolled back the years with a vintage performance for Argentina on Tuesday, scoring three goals in his nation’s 6-0 thrashing of Bolivia in a 2026 World Cup qualifier. It was the 37-year-old’s 10th international hat-trick, a tally which draws him level with Cristiano Ronaldo’s record in men’s soccer. It was Messi who got the party started, capitalizing on a defensive error to put his country ahead after 19 minutes. The former Barcelona superstar then whipped the home crowd into a frenzy with two quick goals before the final whistle. Messi was making just his second appearance for his country since July after overcoming an ankle injury.

In the coming days, their efforts may yield a new indictment, a gag order, and a bail decision. Federal prosecutors have signaled they are looking at weapons and drug charges. Combs' indictment alleges he gave ecstasy, ketamine, GHB, and other so-called party drugs to his victims "to keep them obedient and compliant." Federal prosecutors say this is one of three AR-15 rifles with defaced serial numbers seized from Combs' residences in March. They have yet to file a response to Combs' bail appeal.

Jorge Argota, 35, runs his own digital marketing agency in Miami and made about $120,000 last year. For me, renting an apartment in Miami is more affordable than buying a nice house with a $3,000 or $4,000 mortgage. Argota and his brother pay $2,300 a month for a two-bedroom in this Miami apartment complex. I've also had many friends who have had to move further north in Florida because it's impossible for them to pay rent or buy a home in Miami. So, if I can't buy a house in Miami, I might consider moving to another state.

Trump ejected Ramos from a press conference after the journalist confronted him over his immigration policy. In 2020, the Trump campaign derided Univision as “a mouthpiece” for the Democratic Party. A group of influential Latino organizations penned an open letter expressing “deep concern” over the Trump interview. Acevedo’s interview with Trump was the first time in 22 years a current or former Republican president sat with the network for an interview. Wade Davis, Univision’s CEO until last month, defended Univision’s approach in a memo shortly after the Trump interview last year.

Mario Tama / Getty ImagesThere have been at least 118 deaths in North Carolina related to the Hurricane Helene, accounting for nearly half of the 243 killed by the storm across multiple states. FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell echoed Cooper's call to stop the spread of misinformation regarding the agency and the response to recent natural disasters. "And frankly, it's heartbreaking to see words or active acts of hatred toward anyone, let alone federal responders who are here to help people in this critical time," Criswell said.

A storm system in the Atlantic could potentially strengthen into a tropical depression as it heads towards the Caribbean later this week, according to the National Hurricane Center — the latest storm in what is already an "above-normal" hurricane season. A tropical depression is a storm with maximum sustained winds of 38 mph, according to the National Weather Service. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicted an “above-normal” hurricane season this year, with eight to 13 hurricanes and 17 to 25 named storms. The 2024 hurricane season has already produced nine hurricanes, including four major hurricanes, and 13 named storms, NBC Miami reported. About seven weeks are still left in the 2024 hurricane season.

Hidden inside a 46-story luxury condominium in Miami is a thirteen story garage where busy robots zoom around whisking cars to and from parking spots. The futuristic 24/7 operation unfolds across a 13-level garage and employs five car lifts, dozens of lasers and hundreds of bar codes embedded in the floors. Residents who pull into one of the building's five drive-up bays don't have to hunt for a spot, instead they hand their vehicles off to robo-valets who park the cars for them. It all goes down inside Brickell House, a condo residence which is home to the largest and tallest automated parking system in the world according to PARKPLUS, the company that built it. And while no humans are allowed in the automated garage, CNBC's Ray Parisi drives a Ferrari 488 Spider into it and rides thru it with his camera crew so you can see the robo-parkers lift, spin and precisely park the six-figure ride.

Philip Esformes, whose 20-year prison sentence for a massive, $1.3 billion Medicare fraud scheme was commuted in 2020 by then-President Donald Trump, was arrested over the weekend in Florida on domestic-violence related charges. Esformes is at least the seventh person who received executive clemency from Trump, and has since been charged with new crimes, according to The New York Times, which first reported this latest arrest. Court records show that Esformes was arrested Saturday and then charged with tampering with a victim or witness, and with criminal mischief involving property damage. CNBC also has requested comment from a lawyer for Esformes' ex-wife, Sherri Beth Esformes, whose divorce from him was finalized in July 2020. On Tuesday, a judge in Miami federal court set a deadline of Nov. 4 for Philip Esformes to respond to his ex-wife's filing.

Last year, my drunk trauma dumping reached a pathetic climax when I began pouring my heart out about being an alcoholic. Even from thousands of miles away, it felt more intimate than the few face-to-face dates we had while I was drinking.

While it’s still unclear just how strong La Niña will get, current forecasts favor a weaker one. That outlook could be change when the center releases its latest forecast on Thursday based on trends toward a weaker La Niña. CNN WeatherThis is due to the behavior of the jet stream — essentially a river of air that storms flow through — which often shifts north during a La Niña winter.

Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel expects quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to play again this season, he said Monday. Tagovailoa has not played since suffering a concussion against the Buffalo Bills on Sept. 12. Tagovailoa must also clear the NFL’s concussion protocol before he is eligible to play, a process that begins only after he’s activated from IR. The concussion Tagovailoa sustained against the Bills is at least the third of his professional career. Tagovailoa was also suspected of having a third concussion that season, a controversy that led to an overhaul of the NFL’s concussion protocol.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Florida wildlife experts are warning locals in areas battered by Hurricanes Helene and Milton to avoid dark floodwaters for a hair-raising reason: alligators and snakes. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission wrote on X after Milton hit: “Some wildlife, such as alligators, snakes, and bears are more likely to be seen after a storm. She warned that alligators don’t want to be near people, but if someone tries to grab them, they will snap at them. Also ahead of Milton, the Florida Health department urged people to avoid floodwaters due to exposure to Vibrio, a flesh-eating bacteria commonly found in warm coastal waters. It stirred up colonies of yellow jackets in western North Carolina, likely due to their underground nests being destroyed from rain, flood water and toppled trees.

The Summary The tornado outbreak that Hurricane Milton spawned in Florida was a leading cause of death and damage from the storm. Hurricane Milton brought an earlier-than-expected dose of chaos before it made landfall this week, as supercell thunderstorms — which feature rotating updrafts and can produce tornadoes — raced across the state. From 1995 through 2023, just five tornadoes produced by tropical storms were rated that high. “With the initial tornadoes, that particular band of showers and storms from Milton seemed to really eject pretty far out in front of the hurricane,” Gallus said. That’s how it played out during Milton, Gallus said: The twisters “occurred right where we see most tornadoes happen.”But in Milton’s case, he noted, the tornadoes were particularly concentrated.
