Two men are in federal custody and a third is wanted in connection with what authorities are calling an Iranian murder-for-hire plot against President-elect Donald Trump.

More than 200 homes and structures have been damaged or destroyed in the Mountain Fire in Ventura County in Southern California. The blaze has scorched about 32 square miles. Firefighting efforts have been hampered by weather conditions that include extremely low humidity and no recent rainfall. Jonathan Vigliotti reports. A new Axios report says that billionaire Elon Musk was on a phone call between President-elect Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, underscoring that Musk has a seat at the table as Trump navigates his return to power. Robert Costa has more. Federal authorities are investigating racist text messages that were sent this week to residents in at least 19 states, from California to Connecticut. The texts were also sent to students at multiple schools and universities. Omar Villafranca has details. While a majority of Latinos voted for Vice President Kamala Harris, President-elect Donald Trump was backed by a record 46% of Latino voters, even gaining support in Democratic strongholds like New York City. Lilia Luciano spoke with some voters who were behind that historic shift. There were multiple violent attacks on Israeli fans in Amsterdam after a soccer match Thursday night between Ajax and Maccabi Tel Aviv. Police detained more than 60 people, and five people who were attacked were hospitalized. In a social media post, President Biden described the "antisemitic attacks" as "despicable." Gerri Eisenhauer's father, Army Pvt. William Walters, was shipped off to World War II before she was even born.

Steve Hartman has the story in "On the Road."

Yellowjackets
Yellowjackets follows a girls' high school soccer team. In 1975, the Dearborn High Yellowjackets became the first team in state history to qualify for the Girls' U.S. Soccer Championship Series in Manchester, NH. They never got the chance to compete. Equal parts survival epic, horror story and pitch black coming of age, Yellowjackets tells the story of the (un)lucky survivors of a plane crash deep in the Ontario wilderness, chronicling their descent from a friendly, cooperative team to warring, cannibalistic clans. At the same time, it follows the lives they've attempted to piece back together nearly twenty-five years later, proving that the past is never really past and what began out in the wilderness is far from over.
