Good morning. It's Saturday, May 27. First up, police protocol for hostage situations during terrorist attacks may need to change in the wake of the Pulse nightclub massacre last year, according to the group hired by the U.S. Department of Justice to review the attack.

Next, Gov. Scott could be ready to begin executions for condemned killers again soon, after the U.S. Supreme Court has let stand Florida's changes to its death-penalty law, experts say.
