Donald Trump pleads not guilty. A wedding in Nigeria turns tragic and a hockey team from the desert wins the Stanley Cup.

That's some of what we'll get to on the 7 from the Washington Post.

It's Wednesday, seven month anniversary of this

podcast. There's a lot going on. Let's get you caught up with today's seven

stories.

Number one, Donald Trump pleaded not guilty to federal charges in Miami yesterday.

The former president is accused of keeping and hiding top

secret information at his Florida home where the FBI found over a hundred classified

documents last year. This is a big deal. It's illegal to mishandle or willfully

steal classified information which is supposed to be kept in guarded government

facilities. And Trump is the first former president to face federal criminal charges. He's also facing

fraud charges in a New York investigation. Trump is also in the middle of

campaigning for president again. His legal troubles are becoming a defining issue in the race, but even will be able to renew their US work permits.

The US extended temporary protected status for 18 more months to

thousands of people from El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Nepal.

This reverses a Trump policy. In order to be eligible for instance,

Salvadorans must have been in the United States since 2001 when earthquakes

devastated their country. Temporary protected status is a specific federal designation

and covers people who have lived and worked in the US for years. About 100 people are dead after a boat capsized in Nigeria. That's our third story.

Local reports said the passengers were returning from a wedding on Monday

when the boat was hit by waves on the Niger River and crashed into a tree. The exact number of victims is unknown.
