NPR Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Jack Spear. A judge in Milwaukee is accused of helping a man evade immigration authorities. The case has immediately become a high profile confrontation between the Trump administration and the judiciary over immigration policy. Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan was arrested today. Dugan allegedly helped a man in court on battery charges of eight immigration agents by letting him exit through a jury door. Here's Attorney General Pam Bondi.

I think some of these judges think they are beyond and above the law and they are not. And we're sending a very strong message today. If you are harboring a fugitive, we don't care who you if you are helping hide one. If you are giving a TDA member guns, anyone who is illegally in this country, we will come after you and we will prosecute you.

According to Gaza health officials, the family of at least 12 people were killed in their home in the northern city of Jabalia, also in northern Gaza. Israel says it targeted a Hamas command center housed in a former police station. And it released details of the killing of a 26 year old reservist who officials say was hit by sniper fire. Israel's military released a report Thursday into the killing of a UN aid worker, claiming responsibility despite initial denials. Nearly 2,000 Palestinians have been killed since Israel resumed fighting ending the two month ceasefire. More than 51,000 have been killed since the war began after Hamas led militants killed 1,200 in Israel on October 7th of 2023. Carrie Kahn, NPR News, Tel Aviv.

One of the cardinals participating in Pope Francis burial tomorrow is upsetting victims of clergy sex abuse and their advocates. NPR's Jason DeRose reports from Rome.

Taking part in the burial rite is former Los Angeles Archbishop Cardinal Roger Mahoney. Court documents show Mahoney actively participated in the clergy sex abuse cover up by moving accused priests in order to avoid law enforcement. The archdiocese ended up paying out hundreds of millions of dollars in settlement money to victims. Mahoney's successor later barred him from public ministry in Los Angeles. Victims and their advocates say Mahoney's participation in the burial is shameful and indicates the church hasn't learned enough from its errors in handling clergy sex abuse. Jason DeRose, NPR News.

Strength in the tech sector is being credited with pushing Wall street to a winning week, though it's worth noting, even with the upward movement, the broad market is still down around 10% from the record set earlier this year. The Dow gained 20 points to close above 40,000. The S&P 500 was up 40 points today. You're listening to NPR News in Washington. Even as he says it's not possible to hold all of the meetings needed, President Trump says he is on a path to make several new trade deals over the next few. Trump said he may just simply set new tariffs in some cases, though, which he says would be negotiated internally within the US Government. The last time that happened earlier this month, global markets plunged in response.

Weeks after Attorney General Pam Bondi said publicly that the Justice Department would seek the death penalty in his case, Mangione pleaded not guilty to his federal charges in Manhattan. After he entered his plea, a federal judge set a briefing schedule and discussed other procedural matters. The judge, Margaret Garnett, also noted a law that limits what each side can say publicly about the case to not affect Mangione's right to a fair trial. Garnett instructed the federal prosecutors to raise the issue with Bondi and her associates at the Justice Department. Mangione's attorneys have argued that Bondi's public statement about the death penalty was political and could influence the case. Mangione is due back in court in December.
