> New U.S. and U.K. intelligence suggests the Russian plane that crashed in the Sinai peninsula was brought down by an ISIS bomb: “British Foreign Minister Philip Hammond said his government believes there is a “significant possibility” that an explosive device caused the crash. And a Middle East source briefed on intelligence matters also said it appears likely someone placed a bomb aboard the aircraft…’There is a definite feeling it was an explosive device planted in luggage or somewhere on the plane,’ the official said, stressing that no formal conclusion had been reached by the U.S. intelligence community.”

> Former HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius pens op-ed arguing the Equality Act will need support from big business to pass: “We can’t do this without the support of the business community, which was vital throughout the marriage equality fight and will be no less necessary going forward. I therefore call on American businesses to support the passage of the Equality Act in the United States Congress. Introduced in the House in July and currently in committee, the act would update federal civil rights legislation to add sexual orientation and gender identity as legally protected statuses. More than 60% of Americans don’t realize that these protections don’t already exist, and it’s past time they did.”
