Justin Amash, who was the only sitting Republican member of Congress to support Mr. Trump’s first impeachment, remains in the race. He left the party in 2019 while facing attacks from Mr. Trump and did not run for re-election in 2020. The seat is being vacated by Senator Debbie Stabenow, the state’s senior senator and a Democrat, who announced last year that she would not seek a fifth term. That teed up a crowded field of Republicans vying to flip the seat in a general election contest that could decide control of the narrowly divided Senate. The Republican nominee is likely to face Representative Elissa Slotkin, the most prominent Democrat seeking to succeed Ms. Stabenow.

Schumer says he urged Johnson to keep House in session for aid negotiations

Critics have accused Israel of indiscriminately killing civilians and committing war crimes by cutting off essential supplies including food, water and fuel. The White House has warned that time is running out to prevent Ukraine, which recently struggled to make progress in a grueling counteroffensive, from losing ground to Russia because of dwindling supplies of weapons. There’s also $14 billion for Israel, $10 billion for unspecified humanitarian efforts, $14 billion for managing the U.S.-Mexico border and fighting fentanyl trafficking and $7 billion for the Indo-Pacific region, which includes Taiwan.

Biden highlighted his administration's accomplishments as well as the challenges that lie ahead as many priorities in his agenda remain stalled, including the Build Back Better Act and voting rights legislation.

Residents from nearby towns once came to Trona for shopping and essentials, but now the tables have turned, Epperly said. Trona, a “desolate area that was very much thriving back in the ’50s and ’60s,” was littered with abandoned homes after plants closed decades ago, said Berri, 49.

The annual White House Correspondents’ Association dinner on Saturday night could be another opportunity for Mr. Biden to be in the moment, in what might be the perfect setting for him to continue roasting Mr. Trump, his once and future presidential rival. The White House and other senior administration officials, including Office of Management and Budget Director Shalanda Young, have quietly briefed key lawmakers in recent days about the contours of the planned supplemental funding request. Bipartisan support for Israel has already eroded in recent years as progressive Democrats have become more outspoken in their opposition to the country’s decades-long occupation of Palestinian territory, which is widely viewed as illegal by the international community.

Morning Joe

Emerging from his felony criminal trial on Friday, Donald Trump gave a grim assessment of the economy. “As you know, the economy is falling apart now,” Trump said outside the Manhattan courthouse. It’s going to get worse.” Investors appeared to disagree, as the stock market climbed on Friday for one of its best weeks of the year so far. Donald Trump unleashed a broadside on Friday evening against Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the independent presidential candidate who in recent polls appears to be taking support from Trump. After months of first praising Kennedy and then insisting that his candidacy would hurt Biden more, Trump has now accused Kennedy of being “a Democrat ‘Plant’” designed to help Biden win the election.

“Israel and Palestinians equally deserve to live in safety, dignity and peace,” Biden said. He also warned about a rising tide of antisemitism and Islamophobia in the U.S., noting the killing of Wadea Alfayoumi, a 6-year-old Palestinian-American boy. Biden’s speech reflected an expansive view of U.S. obligations overseas at a time when he faces political resistance at home to additional funding.

It’s part of a broader campaign by Biden to try to paint the Republican cuts as draconian. Aides believe that message both strengthens his position in talks with the GOP and boosts his nascent 2024 reelection effort. His Wednesday visit will be to a congressional district won by Biden in 2020, but that is now represented by a Republican, Rep. Mike Lawler. The Republican Party sent a letter to the Secret Service on Friday urging the police agency to keep protesters farther away from the venue for the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee in July. Mr. Biden will almost assuredly make jokes at Mr. Trump’s expense and poke fun at the Washington press corps.

A day after Naomi Judd’s death, her daughters usher the Judds into country hall of fame

The 76-year-old country star died in April 2022, a day before mother-daughter duo the Judds — made up of Naomi and eldest daughter Wynnona — was inducted into Country Music Hall of Fame. The family initially said they lost her “to the disease of mental illness.” Then, weeks later, Ashley Judd confirmed during a “Good Morning America” interview that her mother had used a gun to end her life. Other buildings on the campus in Arcata are at risk of being occupied, and protesters “have shown a willingness” to lock themselves in facilities and steal equipment, the officials said.

A Proclamation on National Park Week, 2024

Tonight, Jews around the world will celebrate Passover, a holiday that reminds us that even in the face of persecution, if we hold on to faith, we shall overcome.Let us remember that even in the darkest times, the promise of God’s protection will give us strength to find hope. We'll be in touch with the latest information on how President Biden and his administration are working for the American people, as well as ways you can get involved and help our country build back better. Long Beach police later confirmed that a female victim reported she had been kidnapped by a man but officers later determined that a kidnapping did not actually happen, which is why the driver was initially allowed to leave. A man was arrested after an hours-long standoff Friday night that shut down the 710 and 91 Freeways. As residents across urban California have decamped for more space and affordability in the exurbs, small towns statewide have grown in popularity.

The White House said that after his speech, the president and first lady Jill Biden spoke over the phone with Wadea’s father and uncle to express their “deepest condolences” and share their prayers for the recovery of the boy’s mother, who was also stabbed. Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., who is leading the discussions for Republicans, said he still believes negotiators are “making progress” but cautioned that “every day” that goes by without a deal “makes it more complicated” to reach one. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is back in the United States appealing directly to Biden and members of Congress for additional aid for his embattled country. The Senate has been at a standoff over sending aid, and Ukraine’s counteroffensive has stalled. Durbin said during the meeting, some members wanted to discuss military tactics.

This year, Colin Jost, who co-hosts Saturday Night Live‘s “Weekend Update” segment with Michael Che, is the featured entertainer at the event that attracts A-listers, comedians, journalists, prominent politicians and more. President Joe Biden is also set to be in attendance, as well as First Lady Dr. Jill Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff. 'Saturday Night Live' star Colin Jost is set to headline this year's event on Saturday. In 2019, then-President Donald Trump and Nancy Pelosi, then the newly reinstalled Democratic House speaker, reached a broader fiscal deal that not only raised the nation’s borrowing authority for two years but staved off automatic budget cuts that both parties deplored. The Secretary of State’s office confirmed Mr. Meijer’s withdrawal from the race and said he would not be on the ballot on Aug. 6.

He said that if Ukraine loses, the U.S. can count on occupation by Russia, guerrilla warfare and massive migration out of Ukraine "into Europe and beyond." "I thanked them — all the workers, engineers, managers who build the strength of American weapons," Zelenskyy said of his meeting with the defense companies, according to the pool report. Biden and Zelenskyy entered the room for their joint news conference after meeting at the White House.
