Today’s Headlines: Following Vice President Kamala Harris's plea for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, she held discussions with a senior Israeli cabinet member and Benny Gantz, leader of an opposition party to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Harris criticized Israel for not facilitating enough aid into Gaza, where the death toll has reportedly surpassed 30,000, with over 500,000 Gazans facing the risk of death from starvation. Additionally, the UN released a preliminary report alleging that members of Hamas committed sexual violence against women during an attack on October 7th, prompting calls for a broader investigation. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court unanimously overturned a Colorado state decision to remove Donald Trump from the Republican primary ballot, emphasizing that state courts lack authority over federal election matters. Lastly, Trump Organization's former CFO, Allen Weisselberg, pleaded guilty to perjury in a New York state civil fraud trial, and National Guard member Jack Teixeira pleaded guilty to leaking classified military documents, facing a 16-year prison sentence.
