This is AP News. I'm Rita Folley. Can Colorado keep Donald Trump off the primary ballot Tuesday because of what he did to try to overturn his election loss in 2020? He could find out today. The AP's Mark Sherman is in Washington with what the Supreme Court may do. It's possible that the court could issue a ruling that really only applies to Colorado, but the court had indicated and both sides want a more definitive resolution to the case, so it's quite likely that whatever the court rules will have an effect, not just in Colorado, but in Maine, Illinois and in other states where efforts to disqualify Trump are underway. AP correspondent Mark Sherman in Washington. Nikki Haley won Washington DC's Republican primary yesterday, her first victory of the 2024 campaign. Now to that fierce weather in the West, that big blizzard that closed highways and ski resorts has pretty much passed through the Sierra Nevada this morning, but forecasters warned that more snow is on the way for Northern California mountains. The AP's Julie Walker's got one California man story. Rudy Isla, who works at a restaurant and truckie that's been open all weekend, says it took him longer to get his car out than to drive to work. I had a shovel to get out my car out the driveway. Good 40 minutes with a shoveling. Meteorologist Justin Collins. Quite the impressive storm and especially combined with the wind. Still Isla says that the restaurant is another day in the Sierra Nevada. To be honest, if you're a local, it's not a big deal. I'm Julie Walker. Four astronauts took off for the International Space Station on Sunday. They'll be there for about six months. That big smokehouse Creek fire in Texas has now burned more than a million acres. It's about 15% contained. Firefighters are still battling it. Two other wildfires are 60% contained. This is AP News. There's a hit at the theaters. Dune Part 2 becomes the first big movie hit of 2024. When you see sand here, imagine water. Dune Part 2 sold $81.5 million worth of movie tickets domestically, according to studio estimates. It was so eagerly anticipated that no other major movies came out this weekend. Bob Marley, One Love, is a distant second with $7.4 million, followed by Ordinary Angels and Madam Web. The Chosen wraps up the top five. I'm Archie Zaraletta. South Korea's government has begun steps to suspend the medical licenses of thousands of striking junior doctors. Days after they missed a government-set deadline to end their joint walkouts. Nearly 9,000 medical interns and residents have been on strike for two weeks. Officials were sent to dozens of hospitals on Monday to formally confirm the absence of the striking doctors. I'm Rita Foley, AP News.
