特朗普的律师:前总统特朗普对试图推翻2020年大选结果的指控拥有豁免权。如果法院同意,将阻止对他的审判。他们认为,在1月6日事件之后对他进行起诉,就其几乎相同的行为构成双重危险的违反。他们还认为,他在大选前后所做的一切都是官方行为,因此拥有豁免权。 凯里·约翰逊:检察官认为,特朗普的论点具有极大的影响力,甚至会破坏民主,赋予总统在白宫犯下罪行的许可。他们指出,虽然最高法院此前裁定总统在民事责任方面享有一定的保护,但这必须与他们作为总统的工作相关。他们认为,特朗普在试图夺权时就像一个政治候选人,而不是总统。 主持人:美国国务卿布林肯访问以色列,试图影响以色列的战略。拜登政府支持以色列,但也警告以色列修改其在加沙的军事行动以减少平民伤亡。布林肯的行程包括会见以色列领导人,讨论向加沙提供更多人道主义援助,并努力防止冲突蔓延到该地区其他地方。他还将敦促以色列缓和对加沙的空袭。 杰基·诺斯:以色列最近宣布从加沙北部撤兵,这可能是由于美国的压力。但以色列表示他们只是进入了战争的不同阶段。除了在加沙的战争以及如何避免与黎巴嫩的战争之外,美国还关注战争结束后加沙的未来。布林肯与一些国家领导人会面,讨论战后重建工作。战后重建计划需要以色列和巴勒斯坦人的支持,而美国仍然坚持两国方案。 科里·特纳:更新后的联邦学生援助申请表(FAFSA)晚了三个月发布,并且其中一个错误可能会导致一些学生获得的资助少于应得的数额。FAFSA表格本身是正确的,但用于计算学生应获得多少经济援助的数学公式存在错误,该公式没有根据通货膨胀进行调整,这将导致一些学生获得的经济援助少于应得的数额。纠正FAFSA公式中的数学错误需要大量的技术工作,这会延迟经济援助的发放。教育部面临着艰难的选择:要么继续按当前公式发放援助,要么冒着进一步延迟的风险来纠正错误。
