Quick Glance: Majority of Seattle-area Renters Report Significant Rent Increases in Past 12 Months
- While rents in the Seattle area and nationally surged in the early pandemic years, the rental market seems to have calmed since 2023, providing some relief to local tenants.
- However, recent survey data from the US Census Bureau suggests that the majority of renters in the Seattle area may not agree with these reports.
- Out of the estimated 658,000 individuals who experienced rent hikes, approximately 113,000 had a relatively minor increase of under $100. A significantly larger group - around 306,000 - saw their rent rise between $100 and $249 per month.
- Established in 2020 as a response to the pandemic, the initiative aimed to inform authorities and policymakers about the pandemic's effects on communities nationwide and offer data to support recovery post-pandemic.

Quick Glance: Elizabeth Warren under Fire for Israel Genocide Comments
- Senator Elizabeth Warren is facing criticism for her recent remarks regarding whether Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, with the ADL condemning her for amplifying 'dangerous rhetoric.'
- During a Q&A session at a Boston-area mosque last week, the senator was asked about a potential UN court ruling on Israel's actions in Gaza.
- Earlier this year, the International Court found it plausible that Israel has violated the Genocide Convention. The ICJ's legal proceedings are ongoing.
- Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin stated during a Senate hearing that there is no evidence of genocide being committed by Israel in Gaza, refuting accusations of supporting genocide.

Quick Glance: Twelve Jurors Seated in Trump's Hush Money Trial
- A jury of 12 individuals was empaneled on Thursday in the landmark hush money trial of former President Donald Trump, bringing the proceedings closer to opening arguments and the commencement of weeks filled with compelling testimonies.
- The upcoming trial is anticipated to present unfavorable testimonies regarding Trump's personal life pre-presidency, including accusations of manipulating business records to suppress narratives in the final days of the 2016 election surrounding his intimate relationships.
- Central to the trial is a payment of $130,000 made by Cohen just before the 2016 election to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, aimed at preventing her allegations of a sexual encounter with Trump from being publicized in the campaign's final stretch.
- The selection of the jury holds paramount significance in any criminal proceeding, particularly so when the accused is a former president and the presumed Republican candidate. Potential jurors have undergone extensive scrutiny concerning their online presence, personal backgrounds, and political stances as legal representatives and the judge meticulously scrutinize for partialities that could compromise their impartiality.
