Oil prices climbed, and stock markets slipped Monday as investors and households got the first chance to see what the war in the Middle East could mean for their finances.

Washington has a long, complicated past when it comes to regime change. There was Vietnam in the 1960s and 70s, and Panama in 1989. There was Nicaragua in the 1980s, Iraq and Afghanistan in the years after 9/11, and Venezuela just weeks ago.

Iranian authorities say more than 200 people have been killed since the start of the strikes that killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and other senior leaders. The U.S. military said three service members have been killed, the first known American casualties from the conflict.

The jury found that nine CPD officers acted improperly and used excessive force against Ebony Tate, her mother and four children on Aug. 9, 2018, when a CPD SWAT team set off flash-bang grenades outside the family’s apartment before breaking down the door and repeatedly pointing assault rifles directly at the children.
