House Speaker McCarthy speaks on shutdown
video

WASHINGTON (AP) ? With a government shutdown five days away, Congress is moving into crisis mode as Speaker Kevin McCarthy faces an insurgency from hard-right Republicans eager to slash spending even if it means curtailing federal services for millions of Americans. There?s no clear path ahead as lawmakers return with tensions high and options limited. The House is expected to vote Tuesday evening on a package of bills to fund parts of the government, but it?s not at all clear that McCarthy has the support needed to move ahead. Meanwhile, the Senate, trying to stave off a federal closure, is preparing its own bipartisan plan for a stopgap measure to buy some time and keep offices funded past Saturday?s deadline as work in Congress continues. But plans to tack on additional Ukraine aid have run into trouble as a number of Republicans in both the House and Senate oppose spending more money on the war effort.

Hunter Biden sues Rudy Giuliani
video

WASHINGTON (AP) ? Hunter Biden sued Rudy Giuliani and another attorney Tuesday, saying the two wrongly accessed and shared his personal data after obtaining it from the owner of a Delaware computer repair shop. The lawsuit was the latest in a new strategy by Hunter Biden to strike back against Republican allies of Donald Trump, who have traded and passed around his private data including purported emails and embarrassing images in their effort to discredit his father, President Joe Biden. The suit accuses Giuliani and attorney Robert Costello of spending years ?hacking into, tampering with, manipulating, copying, disseminating, and generally obsessing over? the data that was ?taken or stolen? from Biden?s devices or storage, leading to the ?total annihilation? of Biden?s digital privacy. The suit also claims Biden?s data was ?manipulated, altered and damaged? before it was sent to Giuliani and Costello, and has been further altered since then.

Trump responds to GA indictment
video

The fourth indictment of former President Donald Trump may be the most sweeping yet. The sprawling, 98-page case unveiled late Monday night opens up fresh legal ground and exposes more than a dozen of Trump?s allies to new jeopardy.

Already, Trump and his supporters are alleging the indictment is the product of a politicized, corrupt process to hobble him as he competes for the GOP nomination to face President Joe Biden next year.

Judge rules on protective order in Trump case
video

The federal judge overseeing the election conspiracy case against Donald Trump warned Friday that there are limits on what the former president can publicly say about evidence in the investigation as he campaigns for a second term in the White House. Presiding over her first hearing for the case, U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan in Washington heard arguments on how to structure a protective order for evidence turned over by prosecutors, a common step in criminal cases. But she also used the forum to address the case?s unprecedented mix of legal and political concerns. Chutkan stressed that political considerations wouldn?t guide her decisions. She also repeatedly said Trump was subject to the court?s rules as a defendant before trial even as he runs for the 2024 Republican nomination for president.
