Quick Glance: Senate's Decision on Impeachment Charges Against Mayorkas

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.

wired.com/story/house-section-702-vote/
Quick Glance: House Decision on Extending and Expanding US Spy Program
- The US House of Representatives made a decision on Friday regarding the continuation of the Section 702 spy program. This decision was made without a modification that would have required the FBI to obtain a warrant to access information of Americans.
- An ongoing controversial US wiretap program has reached a significant milestone towards its reauthorization.
- Following numerous delays, setbacks, and involvement by legislators striving to maintain and enhance the spying powers of the US intelligence agencies, the House of Representatives voted on Friday to extend Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) for an additional two years.
- Furthermore, the House bill includes a substantial broadening of the statutory definition for communication service providers, a move that FISA experts, such as Marc Zwillinger - among the few advisors to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) - have vocally cautioned against.

Ex-U.S. ambassador Rocha sentenced to 15 years in prison for working as Cuba covert agent
miamiherald.com/news/local/crime/article287592940.html
Quick Glance: Former US Ambassador Sentenced for Spying for Cuba
- Former US ambassador Manuel Rocha was sentenced to 15 years in prison after admitting to working as a secret agent for Cuba for decades.
- Rocha accepted the penalty and paid a $500,000 fine after pleading guilty to acting on behalf of a foreign government.
- The swift criminal case avoided a trial that would have revealed the extent of Rocha's assistance to Cuba while working for the US State Department for twenty years.
- The sophistication of Cuban intelligence services was highlighted as Rocha's double-crossing went undetected for years, demonstrating his secret meetings with Cuban operatives and provision of false information to US officials.
