Deadly Hurricane Beryl eyes Jamaica

After ravaging the Caribbean's southern Windward Islands, Hurricane Beryl strengthened overnight into Tuesday as it honed in on Jamaica, and triggered warnings and advisories across Haiti, the Dominican Republic and the Cayman Islands.

A path of destruction: On Monday, Beryl made landfall on Carriacou Island in Grenada as a Category 4 hurricane with 150-mph winds, leaving at least three people dead and devastating Grenada and St. Vincent and the Grenadines. The storm then regained strength and became the earliest Category 5 hurricane on record. 👉 See the latest updates.

📌 Tracking the storm: Hurricane Beryl's projected path.

Rudy Giuliani disbarred

No more New York law license. Rudy Giuliani lost his law license on Tuesday after a state appeals court found he had lied in arguing that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from his client, former President Donald Trump. He is prohibited from practicing law "in any form" and appearing as an attorney or counselor-at-law before any public authority, among other things.

What to know: Giuliani was one of the leading proponents of false claims that widespread voter fraud contributed to Trump's loss in the 2020 election. 👉 More about the case.

🎥 Watch: Georgia poll workers speak out about Giuliani's defamation.
