Jury selection resumes this morning in Former President Trump's hush money criminal trial. One of the seated jurors was dismissed after she expressed concerns about her identity being made public by the media. As of now, six jurors have been chosen. Trump is accused of falsifying business records in order to cover up payments allegedly made to an adult film star just prior to the 2016 election.        House Speaker Mike Johnson needs the help of Democrats to get his foreign aid package across the finish line. Johnson is moving forward with a plan to vote on separate bills to send military assistance to Ukraine, Israel, and U.S. allies in the Indo-Pacific, as well as a bill that includes border security measures. However several conservatives quickly came out against the plan, arguing border policy changes should be directly tied to any additional funding for Ukraine.        The FBI is concerned about threats to Jewish communities in the U.S. as Passover approaches. FBI Director Christopher Wray spoke during an event on Wednesday hosted by a Jewish community nonprofit safety and training organization called Secure Community Network. Wray told the group of security officials the FBI looks for "lone actors" who might target high profile events or religious locations for violence.        Members of the Kennedy family will endorse President Biden for re-election today, a rejection of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s independent run for the White House. More than 15 members of the famous political family will give their endorsement at a campaign event in Philadelphia. Kennedy, the son of assassinated Senator and presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, is backed by 15 percent of registered voters, according to a recent poll.        Attorneys for Idaho murder suspect Bryan Kohberger filed their client's alibi defense just ahead of the deadline. The 29-year-old Kohberger is accused of fatally stabbing four University of Idaho students in November of 2022, and has pleaded not guilty. Late Wednesday, Kohberger's lawyers submitted a ten-page filing that claimed he was out driving in the early morning hours of November 13th, "as he often did to hike and run and/or see the moon and stars."        The RBC Heritage is underway in South Carolina. This week's PGA Tour event is taking place at the Harbour Town Golf Links on Hilton Head Island. Last year's winner was Matt Fitzpatrick and he's back in the field again this year. World number one and last week's Masters winner Scottie Scheffler is also playing again this week.
