The Trump administration has ordered a reduction in flights at 40 major airports across the country.

Plus, Supreme Court justices expressed doubts over Trump’s tariffs, a judge criticized the Justice Department’s “highly unusual” handling of the Comey case, and the scramble to secure the last remaining pennies.
