It’s a big week for the world stage. Leaders are landing in New York for the UN General Assembly, Wall Street just wrapped a record setting session, and the weekend brought some genuinely unsettling news too. Here’s your rundown of the ten stories worth knowing about today.

Today’s Top 10

1. CNN, MS NOW and Politico sue Trump after being barred from the White House. The three outlets say their reporters were physically blocked from the grounds, and now they’re taking the fight to court on First Amendment grounds right as a huge diplomatic week gets underway.
2. Ukraine fires over 1,000 drones at Russia, including hundreds aimed at Moscow. Moscow’s mayor called it the largest such attack the Russian capital has faced, a sign the drone war keeps escalating even as diplomats prepare to talk about ending it.
3. Gunman opens fire outside an Ontario synagogue on Yom Kippur, critically wounding an officer. A security guard kept the shooter from reaching worshippers inside the Belleville synagogue, but the attack is a stark reminder of how exposed houses of worship can be on their holiest days.
4. The UN General Assembly opens, but the meeting everyone’s watching happens in Washington. Trump and Xi Jinping sit down Thursday to talk AI, tariffs and Ukraine, and that conversation may shape world affairs more than anything said from the UN podium this week.
5. Trump announces a security deal with Denmark over Greenland, and Greenland stocks explode. Shares tied to Greenland mining and energy jumped as much as 245 percent, showing just how fast markets move when a resource rich Arctic territory suddenly opens up to a big US military presence.
6. Wall Street closes at fresh records as AI stocks keep climbing. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq both hit new highs and AMD’s valuation crossed $1 trillion for the first time, proof the AI trade still has plenty of believers.
7. SpaceX’s planned $100 billion Louisiana launch site worries the neighbors. State officials are calling it a massive economic win, but the deal was struck under nondisclosure agreements and locals are asking hard questions about wildlife and what happens to their own backyards.
8. SoftBank seeks over $11 billion in junk bonds to keep funding its OpenAI bet. It’s one of the biggest high yield bond deals ever out of Asia, and it shows just how much capital the AI boom keeps demanding, even from investors who already have deep pockets.
9. Many GOP candidates still echo Trump’s 2020 election claims, even as voters want to move on. The gap between what some Republican candidates are saying and what their own voters want to hear could end up mattering a lot in competitive midterm races.
10. Italy sees West Nile virus spreading farther and lasting longer as Europe warms. Health officials there have logged more than 650 cases this year alone, a clear example of how a warming climate is already reshaping public health close to home.

That’s the day. See you tomorrow.
