Could Facebook Abandon Florida and Texas?: The Supreme Court on Monday heard oral arguments on a case that could upend the online world.

Michigan holds its primary elections on Tuesday. From the war in Gaza to the candidates’ ages, voters in Detroit told us what issues are the most important to them as they head to the polls.
