  • Summary

  • Today’s Headlines: challenger George Latimer, with significant funding from AIPAC opposing Bowman due to his criticism of Israel and comments on local Jewish communities. Meanwhile, in Colorado, Lauren Boebert won her Republican primary in a new district, leveraging her high profile and overcoming lesser-known opponents. In Israel, the Supreme Court ruled that ultra-Orthodox men must serve in the army, potentially destabilizing Netanyahu's coalition and possibly leading to new elections, as this group historically received exemptions for religious study. The International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for top Russian military officials over war crimes in Ukraine, following previous warrants against Putin and other senior officials. Lastly, Judge Juan Merchan partially lifted the gag order on Donald Trump in his hush money trial, allowing him to comment on witnesses and the jury but not on attorneys or court staff, raising concerns ahead of the upcoming debate.
