Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Dave Mattingley. A Chicago man is facing federal charges,

including two counts of murder and the shooting deaths of two Israeli embassy staffers in Washington, D.C.

Elias Rodriguez faces several charges, including first-degree murder, murder of a foreign official, as well as several gun charges.

The interim U.S. attorney for Washington, D.C., Janine Piro, called the shooting horrific and said her office will not tolerate such crimes.

The decision is technically temporary, but its tone is pretty final, allowing President Trump

broad leeway to fire key independent agency leaders

at will. What's more, it all but outright reverses the Supreme Court's unanimous decision

90 years ago, holding that a president cannot fire agency leaders just because he disagrees with
