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.

Quick Glance: Foreign Leaders Push for US Ukraine Aid, Republicans Turn to Trump

An unprecedented series of foreign officials, including from Japan, Britain, and Italy, have visited Washington in recent months, urging congressional Republicans to approve more military aid for Ukraine.

However, former President and current Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump might hold a different stance that these lawmakers could listen to.

Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida called on lawmakers to overcome 'self-doubt' about the country's role on the world stage, warning that Ukraine's hopes would collapse without US support.

The visits of foreign leaders to Washington reflect deep anxieties, especially in Europe, about how long Ukraine can hold on without significant new help from Washington.

Quick Glance: Amanda Knox Faces New Slander Trial in Italy

The upcoming trial in Italy could remove the last legal stain against Amanda Knox, following her acquittal from the murder charge of her British roommate by Italy's highest court eight years ago.

Knox has built a life in the US, working as an advocate, writer, podcaster, and producer, while advocating for criminal justice reform.

Despite the 2015 definitive ruling by Italy's Cassation Court clearing Knox of guilt, doubts about her role linger, especially within Italy.

In her upcoming trial, Knox is expected to testify, although her lawyer mentioned she will not be present in court on the opening day.

Additionally, a burgundy van seen near the church is under investigation, along with the woman's eerie appearance and absence of personal belongings at the scene.
