1. Did you mean SALT? If so, then yes it can let the player do that with the opponent's headline card if the event triggered first. The card is considered 'discarded' the moment the event is played, and headlines are not resolved at the same time, but in order according to ops (with the US given preference in a tie).Conversely, if one side played SALT and the other side played something like Olympic Games, the person playing SALT could not pick up Olympic Games in that case because it is less ops and the event would activate after SALT.
