Quick Glance: Prince Harry's New Primary Residence in the U.S.
- Prince Harry officially listed the U.S. as his primary residence in U.K. documents.
- While this week saw the record of this change, it is dated to June 29, 2023, the day when Buckingham Palace confirmed Harry and Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, had left their residence at Frogmore Cottage in the U.K.
- Following their step back as senior working royals in early 2020, the couple departed the U.K. and settled in a million-dollar mansion in Montecito, California, after a short period in Canada. They reside there with their two children, Prince Archie, 4, and Princess Lilibet, 2.
- The announcement of Harry's official residence arrives a month after a federal judge instructed the Department of Homeland Security to provide documents for review regarding Prince Harry's visa.

Quick Glance: Senate's Decision on Impeachment Charges Against Mayorkas
- The Senate rejected the impeachment charges against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, halting the House Republicans' effort to impeach the Cabinet secretary over his management of the US-Mexico border.
- With Democrats contending that the articles were unconstitutional, senators voted to dismiss both impeachment charges and conclude the trial.
- Senate Republicans had called for a full impeachment trial after the House narrowly voted in February to impeach Mayorkas for his border actions.
- Republicans argued that President Joe Biden was ineffective at the border, while Democrats suggested accepting a bipartisan Senate compromise instead of impeaching Mayorkas to reduce illegal immigrants.

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.
