President Trump arrives in Europe today with control over Greenland on the minds of many of the leaders gathered at this year's World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. As Trump was leaving yesterday, an electrical issue forced Air Force One to return to Joint Base Andrews. The president is still scheduled to deliver a special address to the W-E-F later this morning.        The Justice Department says two members of Elon Musk's DOGE team may have misused Social Security data. In a recent court filing, the DOJ alleges the employees were secretly in touch with a group trying to overturn election results. It's unclear if the DOGE employees shared the data with the unnamed advocacy group. Both have been referred for possible violations of the Hatch Act, which bars government workers from using their jobs for political purposes.        Dozens of Minneapolis-area grocery stores, restaurants and co-ops will be closed Friday as part of an anti-ICE general strike. The organized protest is dubbed "ICE Out MN: Day of Truth and Freedom."        Second Lady Usha Vance and Vice President JD Vance are expecting their fourth kid. The announcement comes from the official Second Lady social media account that was posted on Tuesday.        Carlos Beltran and Andruw Jones have been elected to Baseball Hall of Fame as members of 2026 class. Beltran, a nine-time All-Star and 1999 AL Rookie of the Year, received 84-percent of the vote. Jones, a ten-time Gold Glove winner and five-time All-Star, received 78-percent, just over the needed 75-percent.        The opening bell rings this morning on Wall Street after stocks plunged Tuesday, closing sharply lower on fears of a global trade war. Overnight, stock futures have been trending higher.
