Senate hearings begin today on a Supreme Court nomination that could set the high court on a new path. President Trump chose appeals court Judge Amy Coney Barrett to succeed Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died last month. If Barrett is confirmed, it would expand the court's conservative majority to six-to-three. President Trump plans to return to the campaign trail today in Florida, following a political event at the White House on Saturday where he spoke from a balcony. Louisiana is struggling to recover after Hurricane Delta barreled through over the weekend. The state saw heavy flooding on roadways and in neighborhoods, along with high winds and widespread destruction, about seven weeks after being slammed by Hurricane Laura. Coronavirus cases are rising in the U.S., and across the Atlantic as well.
