Quick Glance: Arizona Republicans foil another effort to repeal 1864 abortion ban
  • Arizona House Republicans once again thwarted an attempt on Wednesday to repeal the state's nearly complete abortion ban from 1864, leaving Democrats without a vote on their repeal bill for the second consecutive week.

  • Despite facing pressure from influential conservatives, such as former President Trump and Senate hopeful Kari Lake, urging GOP leaders to lift the ban, the Republicans blocked the repeal.

  • State House Democrats made a procedural maneuver to attempt to suspend House rules and bring the repeal bill to the floor for discussion. However, this action was rejected by the GOP majority, with only one Republican, Representative Matt Gress, crossing party lines to support bringing up the repeal bill.

  • A similar endeavor to repeal the ban was obstructed by Republicans last week. Following persistent criticism of the law by Democrats both within and outside the state throughout the week, prominent figures like Trump and Lake recognized the political risks and advocated for a change in direction within the Legislature.

  • An NBC News poll revealed Kennedy has a stronger negative impact on Trump than Biden, as Republicans view him more favorably.

Trump’s increasingly charged criminal trial
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.

Quick Glance: Focus on Support for Israel and Ukraine by Mike Johnson
  • House Speaker Mike Johnson is heavily advocating for support for Israel and Ukraine while trying to push a national security package through the House.

  • Johnson faces the challenge of juggling the Republican Party's divided support for Kyiv's defense while feeling the pressure to pass a comprehensive aid package for U.S. allies.

  • In his quest to find ways to promote funding for Ukraine, Johnson is engaging in discussions with the White House and former president Donald Trump. The divisive dynamic within the party and the urgency of the situation in Ukraine present a significant challenge for Johnson.

  • Johnson must craft a package that includes some policy wins for Republicans while also gaining Democratic approval. Despite concerns from some progressive Democrats regarding support for Israel, most Democratic lawmakers have rallied behind the Senate-passed package.

Trump campaign announces record $50.5 million haul at Florida fundraiser
Quick Glance: Trump campaign expects $50 million haul at fundraiser
  • Former President Trump is expected to rake in approximately $50 million at a fundraising event in Palm Beach, Florida, on Saturday night, under the leadership of hedge fund billionaire John Paulson. This amount would double what three Democratic presidents recently raised for President Biden’s reelection campaign war chest.

  • The expected sum would double the amount raised by Biden's campaign at a fundraiser in New York City last week.

  • The event will help support Trump's campaign, the Republican National Committee (RNC), his Save America PAC, and state GOP parties under their joint fundraising agreement.

  • Trump and the RNC announced that they raised more than $65.6 million last month and entered April with over $91.3 million in cash. The Biden campaign's fundraising arm was also active in March, revealing a $90 million haul for the month and starting the second quarter with $192 million in cash on hand.
