Today’s Headlines: We start in Haiti where the situation remains dire following Prime Minister Ariel Henry's resignation, with the country plunged into a state of chaos characterized by gang violence and political instability. The closure of international airports has further complicated matters, leaving Henry stranded in Puerto Rico. Meanwhile, in a legal battle, Donald Trump faces challenges in securing a bond to satisfy a $464 million civil fraud judgment in New York, potentially risking asset seizures by the New York Attorney General. Additionally, Trump's former campaign manager, Paul Manafort, infamous for his ties to Russian interference in the 2016 election, may return as a campaign advisor. On a brighter note, President Biden signed an executive order allocating $200 million for women's healthcare research, while the Supreme Court made significant rulings, blocking a Texas law empowering police to arrest suspected undocumented migrants and rejecting an appeal by Trump advisor Peter Navarro, who now faces a 4-month prison term for contempt of Congress related to the January 6th investigation. Lastly, the EPA has officially banned asbestos in the US, aiming to reduce the significant number of asbestos-related deaths annually.
