Daniel Uria United Press International CARSON CITY, Nev. (UPI) -- Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval endorsed emergency regulations to combat a shortage of marijuana at legal recreational retailers in the state.

Doug G. Ware United Press International SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (UPI) -- The Illinois legislature on Thursday voted to override the governor and usher in a tax hike and balance the budget -- something the state hasn't been able to do in more than three years.

Doug G. Ware United Press International NEW YORK (UPI) -- The first gag order given to former pharmaceutical executive Martin Shkreli at his New York City fraud trial apparently wasn't enough. A federal judge at Shkreli's proceedings on Wednesday issued a revised gag order against the controversial figure -- in response to a fiery public rant he made last week and a number of postings on what could be his new Twitter account. Shkreli, former head of Turing Pharmaceuticals, is facing trial on federal securities […]

Elizabeth Shim United Press International WASHINGTON (UPI) -- South Korean President Moon Jae-in said a "retreat" from the threat of North Korea's growing nuclear weapons program is no longer an option, echoing earlier statements from U.S. President Donald Trump "patience is over" as a strategy when dealing with Pyongyang. "Even as we face the most imminent and dangerous menace in the world, we should no longer continue to retreat but move forward and take a new leap toward the future," Moon said Friday at the Center […]

Germany approves same-sex marriage

Danielle Haynes United Press International BERLIN (UPI) -- The German parliament on Friday passed legislation legalizing same-sex marriage after Chancellor Angela Merkel, who voted against the measure, encouraged her party to vote their conscience.
