— A decade after the 2008 financial crisis, there could be changes to major regulatory policy designed to prevent another crisis from happening.

— President Donald Trump announced via Twitter on Tuesday that he is replacing Secretary of State Rex Tillerson with current CIA Chief Mike Pompeo.

— Three separate explosions from suspicious packages have residents of Austin, Texas, on edge. Are the cases related? And what are authorities doing to find the perpetrator?

— Lake Mead is the main source of water for about 20 million people in Arizona, California, and Nevada. But water levels have teetered near critical lows for several years. Now, leaders in the three states must agree to a drought plan that lowers water usage, or face drastic cuts in water supplies.

Some four million residents may soon confront “Day Zero” — the day the city is expected to run out of water.
