The storm hit the Texas coastline hardest in the early hours of Tuesday, with high winds, a dangerous storm surge and heavy tropical downpours that caused widespread flooding. The National Hurricane Center also put a storm surge warning into effect Tuesday for parts of the region. The warning said there is “a danger of life-threatening inundation, from rising water moving inland from the coastline, during the next 36 hours in the indicated locations....

Tropical Storm Sebastien, which is currently positioned in the central Atlantic Ocean, is reportedly gaining strength. The storm is expected to develop into a late-season hurricane on late Thursday into Friday, the NHC said. Rare for this late in November, the hurricane likely won’t have an impact on land and there are no coastal warnings in effect. Sebastian is currently located about 350 miles north-northeast of the Leeward Islands—a chain of small islands east of Puerto Rico....

“We know we’ve got a fantastic cricketer. He’s had a great Test match record, and he’s going through the right stuff,” Moores was quoted as saying by ecb.co.uk. “He’s played for Warwickshire, performed well and been one of their top players again,” the coach said. The 33-year-old top-order batsman, who has amassed 3,763 Test runs at an average of 46.45, has not played for England since November 2013 at the start of the last Ashes series....

When thinking of notable video game performers, Troy Baker is usually one of the first to come to mind. Beyond The Last of Us and BioShock Infinite, Troy Baker’s career has taken him everywhere from multiple Call of Duty characters, to a variety of Japanese titles like Persona 4 and Catherine.

Trump has both raised and spent “well over” $5,000 in funds related to “advancing his own presidential campaign,” the complaint alleges. American Bridge states that federal campaign finance laws dictate that Trump would have been required to file paperwork declaring his candidacy within 15 days of raising or spending over $5,000 on things that could “influence his election.” Trump has commented about a potential 2024 run on several occasions, which the complaint from American Bridge details, and has been the main opponent that polls have placed opposite President Joe Biden to measure early public opinion on the next presidential election....

Katie Phang, host of MSNBC’s The Katie Phang Show, asked Alksne about her thoughts on former Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo engaging with the House select committee without being subpoenaed. “What does it tell you?” Phang asked. “It tells me that the 1/6 committee is getting somewhere,” the former federal prosecutor responded. “They see it and they know it, and so they would rather go voluntarily than be subpoenaed....

Kent, who is running for Congress in Washington state, made the comments at an event titled Up From Chaos, a self-described emergency meeting of Republicans to discuss the ongoing war. “We must be pragmatic,” Kent said while addressing the conference via video on Thursday, according to Politico. “Putin has laid out what he wants in Ukraine—a decent starting point,” adding that his demand to take over the highly disputed Donetsk and Luhansk regions are “very reasonable....

O’Dea has sought to distance himself from Trump and has run a moderate campaign focused on economic concerns, rather than contentious social issues, aimed at expanding the GOP’s coalition in the state. Trump remains deeply unpopular in Colorado, which has given Democrats large victories in recent elections despite once being viewed as a swing state. O’Dea invoked Trump’s ire during an appearance on CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday after he pledged he would campaign against Trump if he chooses to again run for president during the 2024 election primary....

As indicated by the latest survey, Trump is currently sitting at 49 percent to Biden’s 44 percent, roughly identical to where it was in early February, when, at 43 percent, Biden was trailing Trump by four percentage points. In the February survey, only Senator Bernie Sanders and tech entrepreneur Andrew Yang were able to narrow their head-to-head performances against Trump to within the poll’s margin of error. A Democratic candidate for president has not won the state of Texas since then-candidate Jimmy Carter beat Gerald Ford in 1976....

There are a number of reasons why Curry struggled against Cleveland, but much of it can be traced back to the same defensive principles — switch nearly every matchup — the Warriors have dominated the league with over the last two seasons. It’s a simple system in theory, but implementing it seamlessly hinges on having five players that are both capable and willing to switch onto opponents who make even the league’s best 1-on-1 wing defenders crumble in fear....

Vincent Trocheck scored two goals, including his 100th in the NHL, and the Florida Panthers withstood a late surge to beat the Capitals 5-3 on Monday night. Washington had its four-game winning streak snapped and missed a chance to clinch its fourth straight Metropolitan Division title. The defending Stanley Cup champions lead the New York Islanders, who lost to Toronto, by three points with two games to play. “Obviously it would have been nice to clinch it, but we’ve got two more chances,” Nicklas Backstrom said....

In stark contrast to their slick play on the pitch, City nearly made a mess of the trophy presentation after Sunday’s 0-0 draw against Huddersfield Town when they sent the silverware to the ground. The players did not seem too concerned, however, with much of their attention seemingly on the outgoing Yaya Toure. And Gundogan wasted no time in making light of the blooper, tweeting an imagine of the incident with the caption: “Does anyone know a place that repairs trophies?...

The National Hurricane Center (NHC) on Monday predicted that Tropical Storm Delta will strengthen into a Category 1 hurricane by Tuesday night in the northwest Caribbean Sea, and then continue gaining strength across the Gulf of Mexico as it moves toward the U.S. coastline. Delta is the 25th named storm this season in the Atlantic basin, and 2020 is already three shy of the busiest storm season on record. The record was set in 2005....

The former president will attend a rally in support of Rubio’s reelection campaign at the Miami-Dade County Fair and Exposition on November 6, two days before the midterm polls open. However, according to Politico, DeSantis won’t be present at the Republican rally, and he wasn’t even made aware of the event, which could potentially overshadow any campaigning the governor may plan for that day as he seeks reelection. One person close to DeSantis told Politico that Trump holding a rally for Rubio is like “an elbow to Ron’s throat....

“From a public health standpoint, at first, hydroxychloroquine looked very promising. There were not the definitive studies. At this point in time, there’s been five randomized control, placebo-controlled trials that do not show any benefit to hydroxychloroquine. So at this point in time, we don’t recommend that as a treatment,” Assistant Secretary for Health at the Department of Health and Human Services Admiral Brett Giroir, a medical doctor, told NBC News’ Meet the Press on Sunday....

On Friday, the DOJ announced that it would be giving the Department of Homeland Security authorization to start collecting DNA samples from migrants who enter federal custody after crossing into the U.S. outside designated ports of entry. The final rule was published in the federal register on Monday, with the Department of Justice listing it as going into effect as of April 8, 2020. The DOJ has claimed that the rule will allow immigration officials to comply fully with the DNA Fingerprint Act of 2005, a law requiring DNA samples to be taken from “individuals who are arrested, facing charges, or convicted or from non-United States persons who are detained under the authority of the United States....
