This morning we take a look at the Supreme Court's busy new term that could produce a string of conservative victories on abortion, guns and religion. Plus, the race to clean up what's being called an "environmental catastrophe" off the Southern California coast. And what's all the fuss about Netflix's "Squid Game"?
Here's the latest on that and everything else we're watching this Monday morning.   The Supreme Court is gearing up for a blockbuster term beginning Monday that is likely to produce the most important ruling on abortion in 30 years and a long-awaited decision on the issue of carrying guns outside the home.
The court will also take up a dispute over public funding for religious education, and it could plunge back into the controversy over considering a student's race in college admissions.
"I think we're going to look back at this as the year in which the conservatives really did fully take over the Supreme Court and American constitutional law, where they got what they were really looking for on the big, hot-button issues that affect all of Americans' lives," said Tom Goldstein, a lawyer who argues frequently before the court and publishes the website SCOTUSBlog.
