Good Morning Australia!! - The US Supreme Court hands an ugly and discriminatory victory to Trump - US Republicans make their mean health care bill even more vindictive - Theresa May is blasted for the sweet deal she handed to Northern Ireland right-wingers - SHocking video of a crowded boat sinking - And more in your CareerSpot Global News Briefs:

The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) lifted the ban on parts of Donald Trump's travel ban on people from six predominantly Muslim countries, and agreed to consider the rest of it in next year's term which doesn't begin until October.  That means at least four months of barring visitors from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen, which the orange clown described as "terror-prone countries".  Notice how Saudi Arabia is absent from the list.  Critics blasted the SCOTUS for its imprecise language in the ruling:  "In practical terms, this means that (travel ban) may not be enforced against foreign nationals who have a credible claim of a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States." - the court didn't define which bona fides might or might not be credible.

The American Medical Association (AMA) has come out against the US Republican party health care reform bill as it appears in the US Senate.  The GOP bill would end health care coverage for more than 23 million Americans while handing a big, juicy tax cut to the wealthiest 400 families.  The AMA says that would violate the Hippocratic Oath taken by US Doctors:  "First, do no harm." 

Despite this, Senate republicans actually revised the bill on Monday afternoon to make it worse:   They now want to penalize people who go without health insurance by requiring them to wait six months before their coverage would begin.  "Being denied critical and potentially lifesaving health care for six months is not a fair punishment for someone who is a few hundred dollars short on insurance payments because they lost their job and finances are unexpectedly tight," said Senate Democratic party leader Senator Chuck Schumer of New York.

Scotland, Wales, and other parts of the UK are seething after Prime Minister Theresa May reached a 1.5 Billion Pound Sterling deal with Northern Ireland's ultra-conservative DUP to form a government.  That big bag of cash will be spread out around NI in pork-barrel infrastructure projects of the DUP's choosing.  Sinn Fein leader Gerry Adams says the deal threatens the Good Friday Accords which brought peace to Ireland's north; First Minister of Wales Carwyn Jones called it, "Straight bung to keep a weak prime minister and a faltering government in office"; Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon blasted "this grubby, shameless deal the Tories have shown that they will stop at nothing to hold on to power". 

This also comes as a major insult to nurses who haven't had a pay raise in eight years.  In the closing days of the election campaign earlier this month, May appeared on BBC's question time where a struggling nurse asked, "My wage slips in 2009 reflect exactly what I see today - so how can that be fair in light of the job that we do?"  Ms. May responded, "There isn't a magic money tree that we can shake that suddenly provides for everything that people want."  Unless you're the PM looking to stay in office, then you can find a billion Quid anywhere, apparently.

China will slowly release three employees of Australian employees of James Packer's Crown Resorts after they pleaded guilty to illegally promoting gambling.  The three were sentenced to between nine and ten months in jail, minus the eight months already served since their arrests last year.  Crown says it will pay the fines against the three.

The Vatican says it has "grave concerns" for a Chinese Roman Catholic Bishop seized from his diocese last month.  Bishop Peter Shao Zhumin hasn't been seen since his arrest in Wenzhou, in China's southeastern Zhejiang province.  Beijing and the Vatican are nearing an agreement on which controls the naming of Bishops in the country, after decades of disagreements.

Germany is warning Turkey not to bring the security agents involved in a bloody brawl in Washington, DC to the G20 conference in Hamburg next month.  Bodyguards for Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan were caught on video brutally assaulting Turkish-America protesters outside the Embassy in the US capital last month.  The US has charged them, but Ankara doesn't appear to be in a hurry to extradite them.  Germany is already expecting large protests outside the summit, and doesn't need Erdogan's thugs making everything worse.

At least nine people are still missing after a tourist boat sank in in the Penol-Guatape reservoir in Guatape, Colombia over the weekend.  The frightening scene was caught on mobile video.  Six people are dead, and the majority of the 150 people on board were rescued.  Authorities will investigate the cause.

A horror scene in Central Niger - a convoy of would-be immigrants got stuck in the desert, where at least 56 people died and were buried in the sand.  Rescuers found 23 survivors and took them to Seguedine town.  Many West African take this perilous route to Libya in hopes of getting on a boat and crossing the Mediterranean Sea to asylum in Europe.

The number of drug addicts in Iran has nearly doubled over the past six years.  Heroin - which comes from poppies grown freely just over the border in Afghanistan, where US forces often seek cooperation from opium smugglers against the Taliban - is usually the drug of choice.  The country's Drug Control Organization fears the official total of 2.8 million drug users might be higher because many won't want to come forward due to social and religious pressures.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is abandoning a plan to allow women and men to pray together at the Western Wall in Jerusalem, angering liberal and reform Jews throughout the diaspora.  The Jewish Agency, a major group that liaises between the Israeli government and Jews around the world is cancelling events with Netanyahu in protest.  Bibi caved in to ultra-conservative nationalist and religious parties in his coalition to scrap the compromise agreement made 17 months ago, which was intended to resolve a battle lasting more than a quarter of a century over equal rights for women praying at the Western Wall, the Holiest place for Jews to pray.
