3. Meanwhile, US government may screech to a halt as Friday’s funding deadline looms for the federal budget. Nobody in Team Trump knows what they’re doing so it looks like we’re headed for a government shutdown. More here.

4. The Taliban executed a deadly attack on an Afghan military base, killing up to 140 soldiers. More here.

5. Another day, another story about Uber being shitty. This is the slowest fall from grace we’ve ever witnessed. More here.
