SUMMARY: Sure! Please provide the content you’d like me to summarize, and I’ll be happy to help.

Video shows a woman stealing Halloween decorations from a south city home, changing clothes, and then coming back for more the same day.

The first incident happened around noon Sunday on Michigan Avenue in the Tower Grove East neighborhood. Rose Thompson’s home surveillance camera captured a woman backing her car up in the middle of the road and then making two trips to her porch in the first visit, stealing items each time and then driving off.

Thompson said she couldn’t believe what she was watching.

“Someone pulls up, clearly likes what they saw, throws it in reverse, comes back and starts shopping like our porch is a HomeGoods,” she said.

During the thief’s first visit, you can see she looks directly into the camera before she starts grabbing Thompson’s property. Thompson says what makes it even more brazen is she and her husband, Drew, were home at the time in their living room with their three dogs on the other side of the front door.

She said once they realized what had happened, the woman was already gone. They thought they’d never see her again.

But three hours later, she was back.

SUMMARY: In a final act before leaving office, President Joe Biden granted pardons to several public servants targeted by Donald Trump, including Dr. Anthony Fauci and retired Gen. Mark Milley. He also pardoned members of the House committee that investigated the January 6 Capitol attack, as well as several police officers who testified. Biden emphasized that these individuals served the nation honorably and do not deserve politically motivated prosecutions. While some committee members may accept the pardons, others feel they are unnecessary. Biden defended his actions as a response to exceptional circumstances, asserting the rule of law should prevail.

SUMMARY: TikTok restored service to U.S. users on Sunday after going dark due to a federal ban. President-elect Donald Trump announced he would issue an executive order to extend the deadline for TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, to sell its U.S. operations. The ban stemmed from national security concerns, but Trump’s order aimed to provide more time for a potential sale. Despite app removals from stores, users regained access, and Trump’s actions were viewed as a political maneuver. TikTok’s future remains uncertain, with no confirmed buyers, and questions about the legality of Trump’s intervention persist.

SUMMARY: In Missouri, voters approved an abortion rights amendment, but GOP lawmakers are seeking to roll back some of those protections. Despite the amendment, which allows restrictions after viability, Republican legislators are working on laws to impose more limits, such as banning most abortions after cardiac activity is detected. They argue that regulating abortion in this way adheres to voter intent. Political experts suggest that Missouri’s Republican lawmakers face little electoral threat due to the dominance of their party, especially in rural areas, where voters tend to support stricter abortion laws. Similar efforts are ongoing in other states like Ohio and Arizona.
