Dominique Pelicot has been found guilty of all charges and sentenced to 20 years. The mass rape trial in France has transformed the victim, Gisele Pelicot, into a stirring symbol of courage and resilience. Donald Trump has disrupted bipartisan efforts to dodge a government shutdown, pressuring Republicans to reject a stopgap bill. The Fed’s rate cut lands as expected, but policymakers are starting to price in expectations of economic changes under the incoming administration.
