Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Ryland Barton.
Democrat Havier Bessera hasn't advanced to the general election for California governor
“and that's according to a race call from the Associated Press under California's unusual”
primary rules.
Bessera, the former state attorney general and US Health Secretary will face the second
highest vote, Gitter. Former Fox News commentator Steve Hilton is currently in the second position. The US Treasury is warning banks to look out for red flags that could be connected to the customers without legal status as part of the administration's illegal immigration crackdown, but NPR Steam Bessaha reports the order and advisory are not as strict as
what bank executives were worried about. Multiple news outlets reported this year that the Trump administration was drafting an executive order that would require banks collect citizenship data from new customers. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told CNBC in May that he did support strict rules. But the executive order doesn't add any new rules for banks.
Instead, the advisory warns them to look out for customers with certain red flags that includes individuals with a social security number that doesn't match records or a company that
has a history of ice violations.
“A bank customer in the US does not need to be an American citizen to open an account.”
Steve and Bessaha and PR News. Russian President Vladimir Putin is rejecting an offer by Ukraine's leader Volodymyr Zelensky to meet for face-to-face talks and PR's Charles Mayn's reports. Speaking at an annual economic forum in his hometown of St. Petersburg, Putin told assembled guests he saw no point in meeting with the Ukrainian president.
Putin noted the mocking tone of Zelensky's letter, which took Diggs at Putin's age now 73, and suggested Zelensky's relay was to stall Russian progress on the battlefield, rather than come to a comprehensive settlement to end the war. Putin also made clear his military objectives have changed little despite more than four years of incremental territorial gains at the cost of hundreds of thousands of dead ninsured
in response to Zelensky argued the Russian leader when given the chance for peace as again chosen war. Charles Mayn's MPR News. St. Petersburg.
“Today we are remembering our colleagues, award-winning NPR photojournalist David Gilkey and”
Afghan interpreter for NPR and photojournalist is Abihula Tamanah. They were targeted and killed in Afghanistan covering the war 10 years ago today. Gilkey covered many stories for NPR including wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the devastating 2010 earthquake in Haiti. It's hard, but you can't get caught up in it and become part of it.
You still need to maintain your state of mind that you are helping tell this story. Gilkey cared deeply about sharing the stories of U.S. service members fighting wars far from home and how their lives changed when they returned home. David Gilkey and Zabi Tamanah are the only NPR journalist to have been killed in the line of duty.
U.S. stock market had its worst day since October today, this is NPR News from Washington. Astronauts aboard the International Space Station have briefly taken shelter during a repair to fix a new leak. The five astronauts moved to the docked SpaceX capsule where a cosmonauts worked to fix the leak on the Russian side of the orbiting laboratory.
NASA says this was done out of abundance of caution. A startup company tested a small nuclear reactor in Idaho this week that could someday help humans live on the moon. The Department of Energy says it's the first of its kind to be turned on in the last four decades, the Mountain West News Bureau's Hannah Merzbach has more.
The romance in LA with the company and Terry says its microreactor could power lunar space missions and remote military bases where the grid might not be as reliable and where it's difficult to bring the liquid fuel supply and the complexities of liquid fuel logistics.
A test model of in Terry's is microreactor when critical at the Idaho National Lab.
That means the company safely controlled a nuclear vision reaction but didn't produce any electricity. This is the first reactor in a US energy department program to meet a July 4th deadline. The Fed's fast-tracked reactor licenses to usher in a quote nuclear renaissance. Something some experts worry could result in mistakes.
For MPR News, I'm Hannah Merzbach in Jackson, Wyoming.
