A missile attack on Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport killed 12 people Saturday, and the Houthis warned airlines and passengers against using Saudi airports Sunday. A Saudi-led coalition blamed Yemen's Houthis for the strike, which injured over 300 and was the Gulf's deadliest since the Iran war began.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed an American was among the dead, and President Trump said he was weighing joining Saudi strikes on the rebels. Saudi authorities kept the airport closed until at least 9 p.m. Sunday, while Houthi health officials said coalition strikes killed 91 Yemenis in five weeks.

A Justice Department spokesperson said Saturday the agency is investigating whether five networks broke federal competition laws by halting White House pool coverage last month. The department sought communications from ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC and Fox, saying their boycott over bans on CNN, MS NOW and Politico could break the Sherman Act.

Those three outlets sued, and the ban was lifted under a judge's reprieve that runs until Tuesday, with pool coverage since resuming. Jose Zamora of the Committee to Protect Journalists said antitrust probes should not be used to intimidate outlets defending press access.

Returning from a Tennessee rally Saturday, Trump openly encouraged Sen. John Fetterman to switch parties, saying, "I'd love to see him as a Republican." The Pennsylvania Democrat has split with his party on issues from immigration to Israel, fueling speculation that he might defect.

Fetterman wrote in May he'd be a "terrible Republican who still votes overwhelmingly with Democrats," yet he praised Sen. Dave McCormick in a GOP convention video last month. Democrats need four seats to retake the Senate next month, adding weight to Trump's overture as Republicans risk losing their majority.

What it is: Hurricane Isaias killed at least four people after slamming into Destin, Florida, as a Category 2 storm Friday night, then racing into Alabama as a weakening post-tropical cyclone. It was the first hurricane to strike the mainland United States in two years, and the season's first Atlantic hurricane formed later than any since 1905.

The detail: Isaias came ashore with 105 mph winds and a storm surge near 5 feet, short of the 6 to 9 feet forecasters had feared, as trees snapped across the Panhandle. Two deaths came from trees falling onto homes in Escambia County, Florida, and Birmingham, Alabama, while a Florida man was found dead in his garage with a generator running.

Why it matters: Nearly 900,000 customers lost power across Florida, Alabama and Georgia, and Gov. Ron DeSantis said more than 80% of residents in four Florida counties were left in the dark. Some 16,000 utility workers began restoring service as early as 3 a.m. Saturday, DeSantis said, and Interstate 10, Route 98 and all state bridges were open by morning.

What to watch: The storm's remnants are expected to bring rain to the Northeast on Sunday and Monday, and officials in the Carolinas warned residents to prepare for possible flash flooding. Forecasters also warned that tornadoes could spin off the system far from the Gulf Coast as it churns north on an expected path through Alabama, Tennessee and Kentucky.
