Speaker K presented a document from the Defense department to Speaker J, acknowledging its sensitive nature. Speaker I emphasized that this was a secret influence and Speaker J mentioned that the Special Counsel had already released a partial transcript of the meeting involving Mr. Trump. Mr. Trump denied the existence of a classified document, referring to it as newspaper stories and magazine articles. In another topic, the Supreme Court rejected a legal theory that would have given state legislatures complete control over elections, allowing federal courts to still rule on election-related cases. Former Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney expressed her belief that Donald Trump is unfit to be president and that accountability is important. She also discussed the potential splintering of the Republican party if Trump is reelected. Cheney urged Democrats to take him seriously and not underestimate his chances in a general election. Cheney did not confirm if she will run for office, but stated that she will not do anything that helps Donald Trump. The interview also touched on Hunter Biden's recent deal with the government regarding tax evasion, with Cheney stating that there is no evidence of a two-tier justice system. President Putin spoke out about a failed mutiny in Russia, praising security officials for averting a civil war. In Idaho, the man accused of killing four college students appeared in court, with the prosecution announcing their intention to seek the death penalty. The father of one victim expressed relief at the decision and emphasized the importance of protecting their children. The defense requested additional discovery documents, including cell phone records and an FBI forensic report. They argued that there was no DNA evidence linking the suspect to the crime scene.
Multiple explanations are being considered for the lack of DNA in the suspect's vehicle and apartment, while there are few ways to explain his DNA being found on the murder weapon. The trial, now a death penalty case, is expected to be delayed. A scathing report has been released on the death of Jeffrey Epstein, the accused sex offender who died by suicide in a federal jail in New York. The report cites misconduct and neglect of duty by Bureau of Prisons employees. Epstein had also made a new will with his lawyers the day before his death. The CDC has issued an urgent warning about malaria, a tropical disease now being spread in the US for the first time in decades. The cases are not related and have no link to travel abroad. Malaria is not contagious but is transmitted by certain mosquitoes. Symptoms include fever, chills, headaches, and fatigue. The CDC warns of increased danger with the rise in international travel and the impact of climate change. The CDC urges rapid access to treatment and advises covering up, using repellent, and draining standing water. A Reuters examination reveals that at least 100 members of Congress have direct family ancestors who were slaveholders. This includes more than a quarter of Republicans and 8% of Democrats, as well as every living American president except Donald Trump. Many congresspeople declined to comment on their family ties to slavery. Recognizing and teaching the truth of America's past is seen as important for moving forward.
