Kim Jong Un pledges support for 'just fight' against Ukraine | USA TODAY
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un expressed support for Russia's war against Ukraine as he met with President Vladimir Putin.
North Korea's Kim Jong Un told Russian President Vladimir Putin that his country would always stand by Moscow as it defends its security interests on the "anti-imperialist front," as the two authoritarian leaders met at a space base and adjoining rocket facility in a far-flung corner of eastern Russia on Wednesday.
Kim and Putin's face-to-face talks, at the Vostochny Cosmodrome in Siberia, lasted four to five hours, according to Russian state media, which has been publishing some of their remarks addressed to reporters. The talks provide an opportunity for Russia to obtain desperately needed arms − and for Kim to appear on a global stage after years of suffocating international sanctions.

Bodycam shows Seattle police saying woman killed had 'limited value' | USA TODAY
Seattle police union leaders are under investigation after a body camera caught an officer joking about a woman who was killed.
A city police watchdog agency is investigating Seattle police union leaders after body-camera footage captured an officer appearing to joke about the death of a young woman who was struck by a police cruiser earlier this year.
The Seattle Police Department released the footage from Officer Daniel Auderer, who is also the vice president of the Seattle Police Officers Guild, on Monday. The footage shows Auderer on a call with guild President Mike Solan where they seemingly laugh and joke about a 23-year-old woman who died after being hit by a marked patrol vehicle on Jan. 23.
The 23-year-old was identified as Jaahnavi Kandula, a graduate student from the Seattle campus of Northeastern University. Kandula was on track to receive her master's degree in information systems in December, The Seattle Times reported.

Gov. Greg Abbott and the state of Texas must remove — at least temporarily — the buoys placed in the Rio Grande as part of the state's effort to control the border with Mexico, a federal judge ruled Wednesday, marking a win for the Biden administration.
In his 42-page order, Senior U.S. Judge David Alan Ezra said he made the ruling after deciding that the U.S. Justice Department will "likely succeed on the merits" in the lawsuit it filed against Abbott and the state in July.
"Texas’s floating barrier is an obstruction to the navigable capacity of the Rio Grande River and required authorization from Congress," Senior U.S. Judge David Alan Ezra says in his order.

Joe Biden compares Donald Trump to Herbert Hoover on campaign trail | USA TODAY
President Joe Biden traveled to Philadelphia on Labor Day to court middle-class voters with a speech touting his economic record and boosting unions − just as a new poll found his 2024 reelection bid is in danger precisely over voters' economic worries.
The Wall Street Journal poll, conducted from Aug. 24 to Aug. 30, found that 59% of voters disapprove of Biden’s handling of the economy. Nearly 3 in 4 voters say that inflation “is headed in the wrong direction,” the outlet reported.
