Summary
The FBI has arrested 21-year old Jack Teixeira, a member of the Massachusetts Air National Guard suspected of leaking classified government documents on Discord early last month. The materials revealed sensitive information about the war in Ukraine, and how the U.S. spies on some of its allies.
A federal appeals court partially blocked the decision by a Texas judge to suspend the FDA’s approval of mifepristone, but with tightened restrictions. The Justice Department is now asking the Supreme Court to weigh in on the conflicting decisions over the abortion pill.
And in headlines: President Biden announced a plan to expand healthcare access to DACA recipients, Missouri Republicans are threatening to defund public libraries in the state, and New York Mayor Eric Adams has appointed the city’s first-ever ‘rat czar.’
