Quick Glance: Arizona Republicans foil another effort to repeal 1864 abortion ban
  • Arizona House Republicans once again thwarted an attempt on Wednesday to repeal the state's nearly complete abortion ban from 1864, leaving Democrats without a vote on their repeal bill for the second consecutive week.

  • Despite facing pressure from influential conservatives, such as former President Trump and Senate hopeful Kari Lake, urging GOP leaders to lift the ban, the Republicans blocked the repeal.

  • State House Democrats made a procedural maneuver to attempt to suspend House rules and bring the repeal bill to the floor for discussion. However, this action was rejected by the GOP majority, with only one Republican, Representative Matt Gress, crossing party lines to support bringing up the repeal bill.

  • A similar endeavor to repeal the ban was obstructed by Republicans last week. Following persistent criticism of the law by Democrats both within and outside the state throughout the week, prominent figures like Trump and Lake recognized the political risks and advocated for a change in direction within the Legislature.

Who is Taoiseach-in-waiting Simon Harris?
Quick Glance: Simon Harris Becomes Ireland's Youngest Prime Minister
  • Simon Harris has been officially sworn in as Ireland's youngest prime minister, succeeding Leo Varadkar who abruptly stepped down last month. Harris, 37, took the helm of the ruling Fine Gael party but faces challenges as the party trails behind Sinn Fein in polls.

  • A rapid riser in Ireland's political hierarchy, Harris has made a name for himself as Health Minister and most recently as Minister for Higher Education and Science. His political identity as a young politician has been marked by both supporters and critics, particularly standing out with younger voters and on social media platforms like TikTok.

  • Varadkar's government grappled with challenges such as housing crisis and increasing immigration numbers. Harris inherits a tough political landscape, especially with upcoming elections until March 2025. The political landscape in Ireland has shifted, with Sinn Fein emerging as a rising political force, leading to a shift in the traditional party landscape.

  • While Harris sees the idea of a potential reunification of Ireland as a legitimate aspiration, his focus remains on current challenges like housing crisis, rising cost of living, and immigration. Despite political changes and discussions about potential reunification, Ireland's future remains uncertain and complex.

Quick Glance: Trump Delegates Abortion Policy to States, Rejects National Limit
  • The announcement underscores Trump's realization that abortion has been a significant issue for Republicans on the campaign trail since the Roe v. Wade decision almost two years ago - with his main objective being to secure victory in the 2024 election.

  • During the Republican primaries, Trump consistently emphasized that the responsibility for deciding on the issue rested with the states, even going as far as criticizing states, such as Florida where he resides, for passing six-week abortion bans.

  • Over the past year, Trump has been under pressure from anti-abortion advocacy groups to back a federal limit of 15 weeks, as key figures from these organizations privately and later publicly indicated their belief that Trump would eventually adopt their stance.

  • President Joe Biden refrained from an immediate response to Trump's declaration; however, a spokesperson for his reelection campaign stated that Trump was endorsing 'every single abortion ban in the states,' including those without exceptions, and 'boasting about his role in creating this hellscape.'
