The Latest: Trump takes to social media before Supreme Court arguments
WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Supreme Court is taking up Donald Trump's bid to avoid prosecution over his efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss to Democrat Joe Biden.

A video filmed at the site in Oxfordshire and posted on social media shows the bird chirping in a tree, before then replicating the sound of a two-tone siren.
