Listen "Fiery Protest"
Episode Synopsis
Former President Donald Trump appealed the ruling in his New York fraud case, seeking to avoid paying the ordered $454 million bond for the appeal. Prosecutors also requested a gag order to prevent Trump from making public remarks about witnesses and court staff. Palestinian Prime Minister's resignation raised hopes for political reform in Gaza amidst Israel's desire for a prisoner exchange and a potential ceasefire. A US airman died after self-immolating outside the Israeli Embassy in protest of the war. The Federal Trade Commission sued to block the $25 billion Kroger-Albertsons merger, fearing increased prices and reduced competition in the grocery market. Supreme Court debated Republican governor-backed social media platform regulations in Florida and Texas. RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel resigned to pave the way for Trump's new endorsed leaders. Sweden's approval to join NATO marked a significant shift for the traditionally neutral country. Albert Einstein School of Medicine students received perpetual free tuition thanks to a generous donation from a professor.
