Quick Glance: Court Hearing on Gag Order Violation Amid Trump-Cohen Feud
- Judge Juan Merchan will determine whether to penalize Donald Trump for repeated breaches of the gag order preventing the former president from publicly discussing witnesses or jurors in the criminal hush money case.

- Responding to Trump's social media activity, Cohen, a pivotal prosecution witness, accused Trump of desperation on Twitter, with Trump's legal team justifying his responses as campaign-related.
- Regarding the gag order infringements, the jury will not be presented with arguments. Merchan specified that if the arguments are not wrapped up by 11 a.m., they will pick up the discussion on the infringements at a later time.

Quick Glance: Biden administration strengthens rules on obtaining medical records for abortion
- Under the new regulation by the Biden administration, medical records of women will be shielded from criminal investigations if they cross state lines to seek a legal abortion.
- The regulation aims to protect women in states where abortion is illegal from prosecution and is expected to face legal challenges from anti-abortion advocates and criticism from abortion-rights advocates.
- The protection also extends to women seeking fertility, contraception, or miscarriage care, according to the nation’s top health official Xavier Becerra.
- However, the regulation does not protect women from criminal investigations when ordering abortion pills online and does not mandate law enforcement officials to obtain a warrant for medical records of patients.

Quick Glance: Court Rejects Delayed ANC Bid to Block Use of MK Trademark by Zuma's MK Party
- The KwaZulu-Natal High Court has dismissed the ANC’s bid to prohibit Jacob Zuma’s MK party from using the names and symbols of its disbanded anti-apartheid military wing.
- The judgment handed down allows the recently-established MK party, led by former president Jacob Zuma, to use the 'uMkhonto we Sizwe' name and symbols.
- The judgment highlighted that the ANC only considered the consequences of the name and symbols' use after Zuma publicly declared his support for the MK party.
- The court deemed the ANC's delayed application as 'self-created' due to the responsibility falling on party secretary general Fikile Mbalula to ensure timely action.

Quick Glance: India's Modi Attacks Pro-Muslim Rivals in Election Shift
- Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Hindu nationalist party have begun attacking opposition rivals, claiming they favor minority Muslims, in an effort to energize their hardline base after the start of general elections last week.
- Modi referred to Muslims as 'infiltrators' who have 'more children', linking it to an alleged election plan by the main opposition Congress party to redistribute Hindu wealth among Muslims, a claim denied by the Congress.
- Modi's government has faced accusations of discrimination against India's 200 million Muslims, but has denied them, emphasizing its work for the welfare of all citizens.
- Modi initially focused on development, welfare, and national pride in his campaign, but shifted focus back to core voters after the first phase, addressing issues of joblessness and rural distress.

Quick Glance: Trump on Verge of $1 Billion Win with Truth Social
- Former President Donald Trump is on the verge of scoring a major financial bonanza, at least on paper. If Trump Media & Technology Group's share price doesn't dramatically drop before Tuesday's closing bell, Trump is set to receive another 36 million shares as the owner of Truth Social.
- Even though Trump Media is losing money and Truth Social is very tiny, the new shares Trump is poised to receive would be valued at about $1.3 billion at current prices. Trump's net worth has been fluctuating significantly since his social media company went public last month.
- While Trump Media's share price has been halved since peaking on March 27, it still trades comfortably above levels that would trigger specific performance provisions in the merger agreement.
- Trump Media can issue additional shares to pre-merger shareholders like the former president if the dollar volume-weighted average price equals or exceeds $12.50 for any 20 trading days within any 30-day period starting on March 25.
