These are the headlines you Need 2 Know. * **UK Prime Minister:** Boris Johnson, the divisive former mayor of London, will be the new prime minister of the U.K. About 160,000 members of the party voted in an election that has serious implications for how Brexit is worked out before the looming Oct. 31 deadline. Despite the consequences of the vote, 99 percent of Britons don’t have a say in their next PM due to how the parliamentary system works. [BBC](https://www.bbc.com/news/live/uk-politics-49073992). * **Deportations:** Undocumented immigrants in the U.S. can now be deported without a court hearing after a move by the Trump administration that authorized the expansion of what’s known as “expedited removal.” The new rule impacts undocumented immigrants unable to prove they’ve been in the U.S. consistently for at least two years. The new rule, like the recent asylum restrictions, is likely to be challenged in court. [NBC News](https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/trump-administration-moves-expand-authority-rapid-deportations-n1032416). * **Budget Deal:** The White House and Congress came to a deal on a two-year budget that would lift the debt ceiling and punt the possibility of another government shutdown until past the 2020 election. The deal will raise spending by $320 billion and add to the national deficit, which is expected to hit $1 trillion this year. [CNN](https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/22/politics/budget-deal/index.html). * **Protests: Puerto Rico:** Protesters overtook San Juan’s largest highway Monday, calling for Governor Ricardo Rosselló’s resignation. The protest, dubbed “March of The People” and estimated to be one of the largest demonstrations ever in a U.S. territory, drew hundreds of thousands of people and brought traffic to a standstill. Rosselló has refused to step down. [NBC News](https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/march-people-puerto-rico-mobilizes-largest-protest-gov-rossell-s-n1032286). * **Protests: Hawaii:** Demonstrators on the Big Island are attracting national attention over their protests of a major telescope to be constructed on the summit of the state’s tallest volcano. The protesters don’t take issue with the project per se — but rather building on a site that native Hawaiians believe to be sacred. The peak of Mauna Kea is already home to other telescopes, but many Hawaiians say “enough is enough.” At least 33 people have been arrested for blocking roads and construction equipment. [Hawaii News Now](https://www.hawaiinewsnow.com/2019/07/22/safe-loved-lieutenant-governor-visits-mauna-kea-week-after-tmt-protests-begin/). * **Costa Rica Poisoning:** At least 19 people have died due to tainted alcohol in Costa Rica over the last two months, health officials said. The cause was likely methanol poisoning and may have come from bootleg booze being refilled into brand-name liquor bottles. The government has confiscated 30,000 bottles of alcohol across the country. [NY Times](https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/22/world/americas/costa-rica-tainted-alcohol.html). * **Equifax Settlement:** The credit-reporting firm Equifax has agreed to pay up to $700 million in settlements stemming from a 2017 data breach in which nearly 150 million Americans had their Social Security numbers and other information exposed. As part of the settlement, Equifax agreed to provide every consumer with six free credit reports a year for seven years (in addition to the one annual report mandated by law). Those affected by the breach may also qualify for cash payments. [NPR](https://www.npr.org/2019/07/22/744050565/equifax-to-pay-up-to-700-million-in-data-breach-settlement). * **Netflix for Preschoolers:** Netflix announced seven new series for preschoolers in development, including a How to Train Your Dragon spinoff. The shows will be available on the Netflix Kids portal, which allows parents to monitor and restrict certain content. [Deadline](https://deadline.com/2019/07/netflix-new-preschool-series-dreamworks-dragons-rescue-riders-2019-2020-slate-1202650368/). * **Geaux Crazy:** College football is now just about a month away, and it’s going to be hard for any team to beat LSU -- at least in terms of locker room amenities. The SEC powerhouse unveiled its new facilities following a multi-million-dollar renovation, which include fully-reclining seats for each player, personal iPads for watching film, and even a driving simulator. [See it](https://twitter.com/LSUfootball/status/1153098071007465472). * **First Look: ‘Mr. Rogers’ Trailer:** Tom Hanks is a dead ringer for Mr. Rogers in the new trailer for A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood. The film hits theaters just before Thanksgiving. [Watch](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VLEPhfEN2M). * **Clinton Baby:** Chelsea Clinton has given birth to her third child, son Jasper Clinton Mezvinsky.

The sub, called La Minerve, disappeared with a crew of 52 on board during a military exercise.
