In today's newsletter: FBI releases surveillance images showing a man wearing a mask outside Nancy Guthrie's home before her disappearance.

Surveillance images of a person wearing a mask and gloves outside Nancy Guthrie's Tuscon home before her disappearance have been released by the FBI. Though the Google Nest camera had been disconnected, investigators collected the data through "backend systems" to capture photos of an unidentified person approaching Guthrie's home. The person appears to cover the camera with a gloved hand and what seems to be part of a plant. In one of the videos, the person — wearing a holster with a firearm — tilts their head downward while walking through the home's front archway. Officials say the video offers potential clues for investigators, though the family say they do not recognize the person in the images. A man detained by authorities for questioning last night in connection with Guthrie's disappearance has been released, according to reports from the New York Times and other news outlets. More updates on the investigation here. |

Support for President Donald Trump's immigration agenda has been in free fall since ICE agents shot and killed two Americans last month, according to a new NBC News Decision Desk Poll. In a double-digit shift, 49% of adults strongly disapprove of how Trump has handled border security and immigration, up from 38% last summer and 34% in April. Self-identified independents drove the erosion, with the share of strong disapprovers in that group having risen 11 points since August. The poll also shows a sizable majority of Americans want significant changes to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, but are divided over just how much to reform the agency and how to handle the issue broadly. Democratic lawmakers grilled Trump's immigration heads over Alex Pretti and Renee Good's killings during a House Homeland Security Committee hearing. The officials declined to answer questions about the ongoing investigations. Dive into the poll results here. |

The Environmental Protection Agency plans to repeal the legal framework that underpins its power to regulate greenhouse gas emissions on Thursday. The EPA's 2009 decision says that gases like carbon dioxide and methane are heating the Earth and that warming threatens public health and welfare. Under the Clean Air Act, the current language frames rules that set emissions standards for cars and trucks and require fossil fuel companies to report their emissions, among others. The full text of the repeal has not yet been released, but the move is expected to upend most U.S. policies aimed at reducing climate pollution — if the repeal can withstand court challenges from environmental groups, which had already been preparing to sue. Other climate regulations could also topple down soon, including carbon dioxide standards for power plants. How the change could affect climate policies. |

Olympics recap: What you missed and what to watch |
Team USA women's hockey team dominated their Canadian rivals, 5-0, in a potential gold-medal-game preview. While four out of five of their last meetings in Olympic finals have required overtime or a shootout, their most recent contests have suggested that the U.S. has pulled ahead of its neighbor. Right after completing his routine in the men's single figure skating short program Tuesday night, Maxim Naumov got on his knees, gazed above, and said, "Look what we just did," referring to his parents who died in a plane crash in January last year in Washington, D.C. Naumov's score in his Olympic debut — a performance that held many references to his parents — was enough to let him continue competing for a medal. Today's medal events include the three-time world champions Madison Chock and Evan Bates going for gold in figure skating free dance. Alessandro Barbieri will make his Olympic debut at 17 years old in the snowboard halfpipe qualification. Keep track of Team USA's medal count.

Fellow coffee and tea lovers, this may be our moment: new research suggests these caffeinated beverages could lower risk of dementia. A long-term, observational study showed daily consumption of two to three cups of coffee or one to two cups of tea was associated with lowering dementia risk and slowing cognitive decline. While it's not a sign that people who don't already partake in this many cups should start, the results are reassuring, the lead study author told NBC News. (Sorry, decaf drinkers — cups of non-caffeinated joe didn't yield the same results.) — Marissa Martinez, newsletter editor |
