Live from NPR News in New York City, I'm Doua Halisai Kautel. President Trump and his budget director, Russell Voets say the government shutdown has given them an opportunity to cut programs. They don' order Mass Layoffs. NPR's Andrea Hsu reports. Some federal workers point out the administration's already doing that.

Even before the shutdown, the National Institutes of Health had gone through mass layoffs and seen the cancellation of hundreds of research grants. Those moves have been challenged in court, but for now, the Supreme Court has allowed them to stand. Mark Hystead, a brain scientist with nih, is part of a coalition of civil servants who say the president is overstepping his power. Heisted spoke in his personal capacity.

Shortly after Hamas agreed to release all Israeli hostages dead and alive, President Trump told Israel to immediately stop bombing Gaza. NPR's Aya Batra explains that the finer points of Trump's proposal still need clarification.

Basically, Hamas said they agreed to release all the Israeli hostages. That means 20 who are alive and about 28 who are dead. And according to Trump's plan, that would have to happen in the first 72 hours of a ceasefire. But what Hamas said is that actually it's based on field conditions. And so what does that mean? Basically, a Hamas leader went on Al Jazeera soon after and said it could be months before the bodies of the hostages are found. It's believed to be some of them could be buried under tunnels that are destroyed or in areas that would need heavy machinery that's not available in Gaza.

In a 6, 3 ruling Supreme Court justices sided with the Trump administration and said it can take away the temporary protected status from Venezuelans in the US this while the case continues to be litigated. The decision is expected to affect more than 300,000 Venezuelans who have been in a legal limbo since earlier this year when the administration moved to end TPS for them. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem has said Venezuela no longer meets the conditions for TPS and that the designation would be contrary to the national interest. This latest ruling means the Venezuelans are now subject to deportation. Sergio Martinez Beltran, NPR News, Austin.

Mulali is a 63 year old mother of two who first trained as a nurse, then an Anglican priest, then a bishop. She also sits in the House of Lords, the upper chamber of the UK Parliament, and was the youngest person ever appointed as chief nursing officer for England. Mulally replaces Justin Welby, who resigned as archbishop after an inquiry found he failed to report child abuse at Christian summer camps. She'll lead a church divided over the consecration of women as bishops and the treatment of LGBTQ people. A group of Anglican churches in Africa and Asia has already said it rejects Mulally's appointment, saying it shows the English arm of the church has, quote, its authority to lead. Lauren Frayer, NPR News, London.
