Today’s Headlines: In international negotiations held in Paris, progress has been made towards a potential hostage release deal involving the United States, Israel, Qatar, and Egypt (representing Hamas). The broad terms include a staged release of remaining hostages over a 2-month ceasefire, with negotiations to permanently end the war. Despite the Qatari Prime Minister's optimistic statement, Hamas's leader downplayed progress, stating they hadn't received a proposal. In a separate development, a drone attack in Jordan resulted in the death of three US troops. Preliminary reports suggest the troops may have mistaken an enemy drone for an American one. In the realm of Iranian relations, the US Justice Department charged an Iranian national and two Canadians for plotting to assassinate an Iranian defector in Maryland. The UK imposed fresh sanctions on seven senior Iranian officials, and on the domestic front, Republicans in the House introduced impeachment articles against Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas for alleged refusal to comply with immigration laws. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton requested medical records of transgender youths from a clinic in Georgia, and finally, Attorney General Merrick Garland is set to undergo minimally invasive surgery on his back, temporarily passing duties to Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco.
