    India and Pakistan are accelerating a largely under-examined arms build-up. After last year's military flare-up, the shift toward faster, less predictable technologies is raising new concerns about future confrontation between old rivals. Also: today’s stories, including how the Trump administration is upending decades of precedent for foreigners seeking U.S. permanent residency; why Colombia’s security crisis gives conservatives a chance at returning to office; and how a common love of hummingbirds nurtures a special bond between our writer and her grandmother.

    Los Angeles last had a Republican mayor 25 years ago. But reality TV star Spencer Pratt has seen a flurry of donations and support in the run-up to the vote on June 2nd, in a campaign shaped by last year’s Palisades Fire and a series of provocative AI videos. Also: today’s stories, including a look at how as the United States and Iran move toward a peace deal, the “asymmetric nature” of the conflict is coming into sharper focus; how a people’s movement in the Philippines aiming to limit political dynasties is inspiring hope for the 2028 election; and how homeless writers are getting an empowering platform in North Carolina. Join the Monitor's Christa Case Bryant for today's news.
