Quick Glance: Russia and China Veto US Cease-Fire Resolution
  • Russia and China vetoed a U.S.-sponsored UN resolution on Friday calling for an immediate and sustained cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza to protect civilians and enable humanitarian aid for over 2 million hungry Palestinians.

  • The resolution reflected a shift in U.S. stance, diverging from much of the world's push for an unconditional end to the fighting.

  • While the resolution would have been officially binding, it would not have stopped the fighting or released hostages, but it would have increased pressure on Israel as its closest ally aligns more with global calls for a cease-fire.

  • The Security Council had passed two resolutions on the worsening humanitarian situation in Gaza, but none had called for a cease-fire.

Quick Glance: Trump Attacks on Hush Money Judge’s Daughter Due to Fake Account: Court
  • Former President Trump criticized the daughter of hush money trial Judge Juan Merchan, pointing to a social media account that is no longer associated with Loren Merchan, according to a court spokesperson.

  • Trump’s attack on Loren Merchan, a Democratic political consultant, happened on social media. The former president referred to a photo illustration of an imprisoned Trump behind bars, which initially appeared to be the profile photo of Loren Merchan’s account.

  • Trump’s online remarks occurred less than 24 hours after Judge Merchan prohibited the former president from making public comments about witnesses, prosecutors, court staff, or their family members 'if those statements are made with the intent to materially interfere with' the case.

Quick Glance: Trump Trails Biden in Fundraising Amid Legal Bill Challenges
  • President Biden's campaign maintains a significant financial edge over Donald Trump, who faces the challenges of fundraising for his potential return to office and settling his increasing legal bills seven months before the general election.

  • Federal Election Commission reports revealed Biden's clear financial advantage over Trump, with Biden having $71 million in cash on hand compared to Trump's $33.5 million - more than double his rival's reserves.

  • The reports highlight how Trump's legal issues are straining his campaign. Save America, the PAC used by the Trump campaign to cover legal expenses, spent more than it raised in February, with the majority of funds going towards legal costs.

  • While trailing Trump in early polls, Biden's campaign and allied groups are surpassing Trump's fundraising efforts and the cash amassed for the general election.

War on Gaza: State Department official resigns over US support for Israel
Quick Glance: Resignation Due to US Support for Israel
  • A senior official at the State Department resigned in protest against the almost impossible promotion of human rights due to US support for Israel's war in Gaza.

  • Annelle Sheline, aged 38, announced her resignation while still in the middle of her two-year contract with the US Department of State as a foreign affairs officer in the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor.

  • Initially hesitant to publicly announce her resignation, Sheline was encouraged by colleagues opposing US support for Israel's actions in Gaza.

  • These resignations are the latest in a series of public protests against the Biden administration's support for Israel, leading to internal turmoil within the US State Department.
