"Li," from NPR News, I'm Lakshmi, saying.
The suspect in Saturday night shooting outside a formal dinner, President Trump and others
“were attending, is being a rain this afternoon, and investigators say the defendant Cole”
Allen was carrying a shotgun and other weapons. When he storm passed one of the security entry points to the Washington Hilton Ballroom, where the President Vice President and others were attending the annual White House Correspondent Stinner. White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt is linking Saturday's attack to what she
calls "a left-wing cult." Those who constantly falsely label and slander the President as a fascist, as a threat to democracy, and can pair him to Hitler to score political points, are fueling this kind of violence. The left-wing cults of hatred against the President, and all of those who support him and work for him, has gotten multiple people hurt and killed, and it almost did so, again, this
weekend. Critics have leveled similar accusations against President Trump citing the spread of misinformation or incendiary rhetoric against Trump's political opponents. Today King Charles III and Queen Camilla began a four-day state visit to the United States.
It's the first official state visit for anyone in President Trump's second term, but
“it comes at a 10th time for British, American relations.”
Here's NPR's lore for air. A handful of protesters gathered at the gates of Buckingham Palace, wearing masks of King Charles and President Trump. Paul show most Brits opposed the King's U.S. visit, including protestor Tom Walker. "It's all part of essentially trying to cozy up, trying to suck up to Trump or at least
trying to avoid angering the man, right?" Prime Minister Kier Starmer tried not to cross Trump and got a favorable U.S. trade deal last year. But Starmer's opposition to the U.S. and his Rayleigh War on Iran has angered the President, who has since insulted the Prime Minister personally.
Trump is spoken of his love of the royals, though, and is said the King's visit might help men's relations. Lauren Fryer and PR News, London. The U.S. Supreme Court has thrown out a lower court ruling that found Texas's new congressional map likely discriminates against voters of color.
“And PR's Hansi Lowang reports the court has already allowed the map to be used for this”
year's midterm elections. President Trump pushed Republican state lawmakers in Texas to pass this map of congressional loading districts to help the GOP keep control of the House of Representatives. Last year, three judge panel found that the map likely violates the Constitution by discriminating against voters based on their race.
It's because top Republican lawmakers publicly suggested they pass the map to get rid of districts where black and Latino voters together make up the majority. Now the Supreme Court has reversed that ruling. The court's three liberal justices dissented. Their congressional gerrymandering fight that began in Texas continues in other states.
Florida's governor is proposing a new Republican-friendly map and Virginia's highest court is hearing a case that will help determine whether a new Democratic-friendly map voters approve can be used. Hansi Lowang and PR News. This is NPR News.

A court case is getting underway in California, hitting Elon Musk of Tesla and SpaceX fame. Again, Sam Altman and Chad G.P.T. Sparen Company, open AI. Jerry Selection starts today. NPR's John Roo, which says the case, could have implications for the future of open AI.
Musk Altman and a handful of others co-founded open AI almost a decade ago as a non-profit organization. They were worried about human-level artificial intelligence being in the hands of four profit companies, so the idea was to develop advanced AI to benefit humanity. But soon they launched a four-profit arm of open AI in order to raise enough money to meet
their goals. Analysts say there was a power struggle over who would control that entity with Musk on the losing end. In the lawsuit, Musk contends that the four-profit business has taken over and the non-profit mission has been sideline.
He wants the company to return to its founding mission, and he wants Altman out. The trial is expected to last about three weeks. John Roo, which NPR news.
