AMNA NAWAZ: In the day's other headlines: Federal prosecutors charge two men today with attempting to support ISIS after they allegedly brought bombs to a New York City protest this weekend.

Ibrahim Kayumi and Emir Balat are being held without bail on charges including attempting to provide material support to a terrorist organization and using a weapon of mass destruction.

Police found the homemade devices, which did not explode, outside Mayor Zohran Mamdani's official residence on Saturday.

The scene unfolded during a counterprotest to an anti-Islamic demonstration organized by far-right activist Jake Lang.

Today, New York's police commissioner said the bombers intended to inflict maximum damage, citing statements from one of the suspects, Emir Balat in particular.

JESSICA TISCH, New York City Police Commissioner: He also told investigators that he had hoped to carry out an attack even bigger than the Boston Marathon bombing, which he noted resulted in only three deaths.

This was a planned attack motivated by extremist ideology and inspired by a violent, foreign terrorist organization.

AMNA NAWAZ: The police commissioner also said there are no indications that the attack was connected to the ongoing war with Iran.

The Justice Department says it's reached a tentative agreement in its antitrust lawsuit against Ticketmaster and its parent company, Live Nation.

Under the terms of the deal, Live Nation would pay up to $280 million in fines and divest ownership of 13 amphitheaters.

It would also allow venues to use other vendors to sell tickets and cap service fees, which could potentially lead to lower prices for consumers.

But it spares the business from being split apart, leaving some states worried that it remains a monopoly.

The deal still must be approved by a judge, and some states say they'll carry on with the ongoing trial in New York.

Security lines at airports across the country stretched for hours again today as more TSA agents are calling off work due to the partial government shutdown.

At Houston's Hobby Airport, passengers were advised to arrive four hours before their flights.

The delays are lingering after a travel nightmare this weekend.

MAN: We're going on two hours right now in just TSA's line.

Right now, I'm trying to keep high spirits right now to keep everybody else up, but I -- everyone's in a bad mood, hot and sweaty and everything.

MAN: Come on, two lines, two escalators.

Let's go.

AMNA NAWAZ: In New Orleans, lines snaked through the concourse and out to the parking garage as airport officials warned of a two-hour wait there.

The partial government shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees the TSA, started nearly a month ago.

Around 50,000 airport screeners have been working without pay.

A.I.

company Anthropic is suing the Trump administration after officials labeled it a supply chain risk, rendering it ineligible for government contracts.

It came after the company said it did not want its technology to be used for mass surveillance of U.S.

citizens or for autonomous lethal weapons.

In a pair of lawsuits, Anthropic called the designation -- quote -- "unprecedented and unlawful," saying -- quote -- "The Constitution does not allow the government to wield its enormous power to punish a company for its protected speech."

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had insisted that Anthropic accept all lawful uses of its technology and threatened to punish the company if it failed to comply.

Australia has granted asylum to five members of the Iranian women's soccer team.

They were in the country for the women's Asian Cup last month before the war began.

Australia's home affairs minister said they had been moved to a -- quote -- "safe location" by federal police officers, and he added asylum was offered to other team members as well.

Iran was knocked out of the tournament over the weekend and was facing the prospect of returning to a home country under bombardment.

On Wall Street today, stocks erased earlier losses to end higher.

The Dow Jones industrial average added nearly 240 points on the day.

The Nasdaq rose more than 300 points.

The S&P 500 also managed a decent gain.

And we have two passings of note this evening, starting with former White House aide and Watergate figure Alexander Butterfield.

During Senate hearings in 1973, Butterfield revealed the existence of a secret recording system inside the Nixon White House.

MAN: Mr.

Butterfield, are you aware of the installation of any listening devices in the Oval Office of the president?

ALEXANDER BUTTERFIELD, Former Deputy Assistant to President Richard Nixon: I was aware of listening devices, yes, sir.

MAN: When were those devices placed in the Oval Office?

AMNA NAWAZ: His testimony shocked a nation and would help prove Richard Nixon's role in the Watergate cover-up.

He resigned the presidency the following year.

Butterfield also served as head of the FAA and as a business executive in California.

In later years, Butterfield said he didn't expect his testimony to lead to Nixon's downfall, but considered him a crook and cheered when he left office.

Alexander Butterfield was 99 years old.

And the musician known as Country Joe McDonald has died.

His performance at Woodstock in 1969 was a highlight of the event and a symbol of the times.

McDonald's anti-war song "I Feel Like I'm Fixing To Die Rag" and its sing-along chorus was an anthem for Vietnam War protesters.

He also led the crowd in a four-letter expletive chant that captured the anger of the era.

He and his band, Country Joe and the Fish, came out of the psychedelic rock scene of the Bay Area.

McDonald went on to release a number of solo albums over the decades that followed.

His wife says he died due to complications from Parkinson's.

Country Joe McDonald was 84 years old.
