Congress Speeds TikTok Ban Bill By Adding It To Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan Aid Package
forbes.com/sites/johannacostigan/2024/04/18/new-legislative-package-proposes-aid-for-ukraine-israel-taiwan-and-banning-tiktok/
Quick Glance: Will TikTok Be Banned in the US? Impact of a TikTok Ban
- The US House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly for a bill that would force Chinese parent company ByteDance to sell TikTok's US operations. The bill now moves to the Senate where its future is uncertain.

- Even if Biden signs the bill, it will face legal challenges from TikTok and its supporters. The Chinese Embassy is lobbying against the legislation with congressional staffers.
- The sale of TikTok by ByteDance would take nearly a year, potentially aiding the bill in surviving legal challenges. YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram would benefit most from a TikTok ban.

Quick Glance: Twelve Jurors Seated in Trump's Hush Money Trial
- A jury of 12 individuals was empaneled on Thursday in the landmark hush money trial of former President Donald Trump, bringing the proceedings closer to opening arguments and the commencement of weeks filled with compelling testimonies.
- The upcoming trial is anticipated to present unfavorable testimonies regarding Trump's personal life pre-presidency, including accusations of manipulating business records to suppress narratives in the final days of the 2016 election surrounding his intimate relationships.
- Central to the trial is a payment of $130,000 made by Cohen just before the 2016 election to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, aimed at preventing her allegations of a sexual encounter with Trump from being publicized in the campaign's final stretch.
- The selection of the jury holds paramount significance in any criminal proceeding, particularly so when the accused is a former president and the presumed Republican candidate. Potential jurors have undergone extensive scrutiny concerning their online presence, personal backgrounds, and political stances as legal representatives and the judge meticulously scrutinize for partialities that could compromise their impartiality.

bbc.com/news/av/world-us-canada-68851620
Quick Glance: Biden Receives Kennedy Family Endorsements in Philadelphia
- President Joe Biden received endorsements from at least 15 members of the Kennedy political family during a campaign stop in Philadelphia to undermine Donald Trump and marginalize the candidacy of independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
- Kerry Kennedy, daughter of former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, niece of former President John F. Kennedy, and sister of the current presidential candidate, delivered the endorsements in Philadelphia, calling Biden her hero.
- The decision to highlight the Kennedy family's support more than six months from Election Day indicates how seriously Biden's team is taking a long shot candidate using his last name's lingering Democratic magic.
- Biden used the event to keep up the pressure on Trump, emphasizing the importance of the election not for himself, but to keep Trump out, stating the race was significant due to the potential consequences if they lose this election. The Kennedy family endorsements for Biden were hardly a surprise, as prominent members of the Democratic family did not politically align with Kennedy Jr.
