Quick Glance: Joe Lieberman, Former US Senator and Vice Presidential Candidate, Passes Away at 82

Former U.S. Senator Joe Lieberman from Connecticut, who came close to winning the vice presidency on the Democratic ticket with Al Gore in the disputed 2000 election and nearly became running mate to Republican John McCain eight years later, has passed away.

Lieberman passed away in New York City as a result of complications following a fall.

His advocacy for issues such as gay rights, civil rights, abortion rights, and environmental causes often earned him praise from many liberals, despite causing discontent among Democrats due to his independent stance and provocations towards Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama during the 2008 campaign.

Renowned for his firm foreign policy perspectives, pro-defense inclinations, and robust support for environmental matters, Lieberman was instrumental in the legislative efforts leading to the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security.

Quick Glance: Trump Secures Pause on $454 Million Civil Fraud Judgment

Donald Trump wins the ability to pause his $454 million civil fraud judgment by posting a $175 million bond within 10 days.

A mid-level state appellate court grants Trump's request to delay enforcement of a February 16 judgment while considering his appeal.

Presidential candidate Trump continues to raise funds for his campaign and legal costs as he faces four upcoming criminal trials.

Trump's legal team seeks a delay in a New York state criminal trial over hush money paid to porn star Stormy Daniels, revealing new federal documents.

Quick Glance: RNC Launches 'Biden Bloodbath' Website

The Republican National Committee launched a website aimed at criticizing President Biden's border policies.

BidenBloodbath.com provides a timeline of the 'border crisis,' attributing it to Biden's policies and offering 'real-time messaging' to activists.

The website also tries to link allegations of crimes committed by individuals who entered battleground states illegally with various data points on fentanyl deaths.

While the immigration discourse may fuel distrust, generalizations about immigrants committing violent crimes are often false.

Quick Glance: Magnitude 4.8 Earthquake Rocks New York City and Northeast US

An unusual East Coast earthquake startled millions from New York to rural New England. Over 42 million people may have felt the midmorning quake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.8.

While causing no widespread damage, the earthquake led to evacuations in Newark, New Jersey, and infrastructure inspections across the region. Flights were diverted, trains slowed, and tunnel traffic stopped.

Although no major damages were reported, the earthquake caused some disruptions. The area near the epicenter experienced minor effects, including the collapse of a historic site. There were also over a dozen aftershocks reported in the region.

President Joe Biden offered assistance, while New York City reported no major safety or infrastructure issues. Engineers emphasized that New York skyscrapers are made of high-strength materials and designed to sway slowly to withstand impacts. Even the delicately placed eggs in a sculpture at a Chinatown art gallery remained unharmed during the quake.

Five NCAA women's basketball tournament games were played with different-length three-point arcs on either side of the court.
