House Approves Bill Banning TikTok in the US (Again): Congress tries again with a TikTok ban, this time bundling it into a foreign aid package.

Quick Glance: EU Threatens to Suspend TikTok Lite App Features

The European Commission has expressed concerns over the 'risks of serious damage for the mental health of users', including minors, regarding the TikTok Lite app.

TikTok Lite allows users in France and Spain to earn points that can be exchanged for vouchers or gift cards by watching and liking videos.

The commission is threatening to take interim measures, including suspending the rewards program in the European Union, if TikTok fails to provide a risk assessment.

The EU has already fined TikTok under the Digital Services Act and could impose further sanctions if the company does not respond to requests or prove safety measures.

Quick Glance: Trump Agrees to New Restrictions on $175 Million Bond in New York Civil Fraud Case

The bond is meant to secure Trump's compliance with a $454.2 million judgment won by state Attorney General Letitia James if he does not succeed in an appeal.

James had challenged the bond this month, saying Trump still had access to the Charles Schwab account pledged to the insurer as collateral.

Justice Arthur Engoron imposed the penalty after finding that Trump fraudulently inflated his net worth and real estate assets to deceive banks and insurers into providing better terms.

Trump defended the bond in court, emphasizing that he has plenty of money to put up for it.

Quick Glance: Newsom Proposes Law to Aid Arizonans in Getting Abortions in California

California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) announced plans to introduce legislation to assist Arizonans in obtaining abortions in his state following a recent decision by the Arizona Supreme Court allowing a near-total abortion ban from 1864 to take effect.

The emergency legislation aims to expedite the licenses of Arizona abortion providers to treat patients in California and will be presented this week through the legislature's women's caucus.

Newsom emphasized the importance of a prompt response to Republican-led abortion restrictions, criticizing the GOP for their stance. His political action committee is funding ads against bills limiting abortion access.

Newsom intends to campaign on the abortion issue in swing states Arizona and Nevada to support a Democratic win in the presidential election and Senate control, calling President Trump a liar regarding his position on nationwide abortion bans.

Siblings killed when suspected intoxicated driver crashes into child's birthday party in Michigan

Quick Glance: Sibling Fatally Hit by Car at Birthday Party

A young brother and sister died, and several people were injured, some seriously, when a vehicle driven by a suspected drunken driver crashed into a young child's birthday party at a boat club in Berlin Township, Michigan, on Saturday.

An 8-year-old girl and her 5-year-old brother died in the crash, as a 66-year-old woman drove about 25 feet into the building, according to Monroe County Sheriff Troy Goodnough.

Three children and six adults were taken to hospitals with life-threatening injuries, while others received first aid on site and some were transported by private vehicles.

The driver was taken into custody and is suspected of operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol causing death. Further charges may be pending as the investigation continues.

A prosecutor alleged that Donald Trump tried to illegally influence the 2016 presidential election by preventing damaging stories about his personal life from becoming public.

The defense argued that Trump was 'innocent' and attacked the integrity of the former Trump confidant who is now the government's star witness.

The opening statements provided the 12-person jury and the public with a roadmap to understand the allegations in the case and Trump's expected defenses.

Prosecutors emphasized the gravity of the case by framing it as about election interference and sought to address criticism that the case lacks the grievous allegations present in Trump's other three cases.

Column: Nebraska should leave its electoral vote system alone: Gov. Jim Pillen shouldn't push for a winner-take-all system for Nebraska's electoral votes ...

Quick Glance: Nebraska Should Maintain Its Electoral Vote System

Governor Jim Pillen is considering a special session to change Nebraska's electoral system to ensure Donald Trump wins all the state's electoral votes. However, this move is not as straightforward for Trump as Governor Pillen believes. It would not only make our state less democratic but could also backfire, potentially making Nebraska the deciding state that hands the election to President Joe Biden.

Pillen and Republican allies are pushing to switch Nebraska to a winner-take-all system to secure all five electoral votes for Trump. This plan is likely to backfire, as opponents are expected to organize a ballot initiative to reverse it.

Nebraska has a law allowing voters to challenge a bill before it becomes law through a petition process. If opponents gather the required 125,000 signatures, Pillen's transition to a winner-take-all system would be postponed until after November's general election and could be halted altogether if a majority of voters support the referendum.

A ballot initiative would also benefit Democrats in the 2nd District, a true swing district. If successful, it could serve as an additional motivating issue for voters who rightly oppose Trump's interference with the state's democracy for his own gain.

Quick Glance: Trump Cancels Rally Due to Storm

Donald Trump had to cancel his planned rally in North Carolina due to a storm, highlighting the challenges the former president faces balancing legal issues with his campaign against President Joe Biden.

Despite the cancellation, the audience expressed frustration but understanding, supporting Trump's strategy of incorporating his court time into anti-establishment arguments.

It remains uncertain when Trump's next campaign appearance will be, as his New York trial may extend, restricting his ability to engage with voters. North Carolina holds significance as a battleground state for both Trump and Biden in the upcoming election.

Democrats criticized the Trump-Robinson pairing ahead of the rally, citing concerns about their stance on abortion rights. Both parties are striving to appeal to voters with contrasting messages in North Carolina.

Quick Glance: Billions for Kyiv: America's Last Major Aid to Ukraine

The US House of Representatives approved a $60 billion Ukraine aid package, with support from 101 Republicans. President Volodymyr Zelensky thanked the lawmakers, emphasizing the law's importance in preventing war and saving lives.

The aid package allows for deliveries of weapons worth €57 billion to Ukraine, with initial shipments already en route. The Senate is expected to pass the package smoothly, and President Biden is set to sign it.

The linked aid with the ultimatum to Tiktok to sever ties with Bytedance garnered broad political support. Former President Trump eventually agreed to support Ukraine but stressed the conditions for financial assistance.

Trump made it clear to Europe that the USA will only assist if Europe pays its fair share. Experts anticipate a potential decrease in US aid under a Trump presidency, shifting more responsibility for Ukraine onto Europe.
