preserved ever since the gunman killed 14 students and 3 adults on valentine s day 2018. and in texas, we re on verdict watch. jurors are now deliberating in the defamation trial against conspiracy theorist alex jones. they re deciding how much money he should pay to the parents of a 6-year-old sandy hook victim for repeatedly pushing derange conspiracies that the murder of 20 first graders and six adults did not happen. the judge in the case denied jones s request for a mistrial after it was revealed his lawyer accidentally sent two years of cell phone records and text messages to the parents legal team. the parents lawyer says multiple law enforcement groups are now seeking those texts, including the january 6th committee. request from various federal agencies and law enforcement to provide that. absent a ruling from you saying you cannot do that, i intend to do so immediately following this. i believe there is absolutely nothing, nothing that he has done to fulfill h
is joining me from jerusalem. what in terms of the focus, what have we seen here for the president s visit? reporter: well, we just saw president biden arriving in bethlehem at the presidential compound where he was greeted by mahmoud abbas. this is the first visit by a u.s. president to meet with the palestinian authority president since president trump visited in 2017. and this comes as the u.s. is really trying to shift its policy towards the palestinians. we have watched the biden administration turn back on the spigot of humanitarian aid to the palestinian people that was cut off by the trump administration. we ve seen since president biden came into office about half a billion dollars of aid. and today we re expecting president biden to announce a total of $316 million of additional aid for palestinians including $100 million for the east jerusalem hospital network that serves palestinians. here is the president earlier this morning at one of those hospitals in east j
The senate floor opens up now and they lose a longstanding members in senator Dianne Feinstein, a sixterm senator out of california, first went to the chamber in 1992. It saw bill clinton go to the white house that year. She is dead at the age of 90. This is the chaplain now.

We continue to believe that the hearts of our lawmakers are in your hands and you turn their plans as you desire.
