Today’s Headlines: A newly released recording from 2020 reveals Roger Stone making alarming remarks, suggesting that either Eric Swalwell or Jerry Nadler "had to die before the election." Both Swalwell and Nadler, who were part of the House judiciary committee at the time, oversaw investigations involving Stone and Trump. Stone allegedly made these statements to a former New York police officer named Sal Greco. In another legal development, a federal appeals court in Washington DC heard arguments on whether Donald Trump is immune from criminal charges for attempting to overturn the 2020 election. Trump's lawyers argued that he could not be prosecuted unless impeached and convicted by Congress. A separate federal appeals court in New York declined to hear Trump's argument to avoid another trial in the defamation lawsuit from E. Jean Carroll. Trump is set to deliver his own closing argument in his civil business fraud trial in New York. The fifth and final Republican primary debate took place in Iowa, featuring Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis, while Trump held his own town hall on Fox News. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin's prostate cancer diagnosis raised concerns as the Pentagon took three days to inform key officials. Storms across the United States led to wind advisories and tornado watches, causing fatalities and a moderate risk of extreme rainfall. Lastly, a security breach on the SEC's official Twitter account falsely announced the approval of a Bitcoin investment product, causing a temporary surge in Bitcoin prices.
