Summary

President Trump meets face-to-face today with Vladimir Putin in Alaska, the first such meeting since the Ukraine war began, in what he calls “round one” of an effort to secure a ceasefire. California Governor Gavin Newsom unveils a proposal to override the state’s independent redistricting commission and draw new congressional maps, aiming to counter Texas’s GOP-led redistricting. Newly-released emails show Biden staffers canceled a planned ship tour in 2023 over concerns about “too many steps,” now part of a House Oversight probe into whether aides concealed the president’s physical and mental decline.

0:14.5	President Trump set to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin today face-to-face in Alaska,
0:20.1	the most significant step so far in the
