Good morning. Today the U.S. Supreme Court will weigh the legality of state laws banning transgender athletes from female sports teams at public schools. Plus, Uber will face the first trial seeking to hold it liable for alleged assaults committed by its drivers; and the federal judiciary is set to receive a boost in spending for court security and federal public defenders. Astronomers observed a white dwarf star that is creating a colorful shockwave as it moves through space. We’re still light-years from Friday but I hope your Tuesday has a great atmosphere.
