Additionally, many feeds (especially Google News-proxied sources like CNN, NYT, WSJ, WaPo) can take 10-20+ hours to index new articles.

Supreme Court declines to hear cases challenging school policies on transgender student transitions without parental notification
The U.S. Supreme Court declined certiorari on two cases, Littlejohn v. School Board of Leon County (Florida) and Foote v. Ludlow School Committee (Massachusetts), in which parents challenged school policies that concealed student gender transitions and name/pronoun changes from them. The Court had previously intervened via emergency appeal in a California case (Mirabelli v. Bonta), reinstating an injunction against a state law that prevented schools from notifying parents of gender identity changes.
