Another airplanes mishap // Israel vs Iran drama // Ridiculous Trump trial // Hindu nationalism: Modi re-election? // TikTok ban in bill //
**Another near miss on the tarmac?
(CNN or theSkimm Fri 4-19-24) A jet collision was narrowly avoided at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport on Thursday after two planes were cleared on the same runway. The FAA said it would investigate the incident and analyze audio of the air traffic controllers frantically trying to radio both planes to stop.
*Israel vs Iran
(CNN or theSkimm Fri 4-19-24) Israel has carried out a military strike on Iran, a US official told CNN, a move that threatens to further escalate tensions in the Middle East. Israel has not commented and Iran has not identified the source of the attack. Iranian media reported that sites associated with Iran’s nuclear program were secure, and published footage of calm scenes in the areas where explosions were reported. Israel had for days weighed its response to Iran’s unprecedented weekend strikes, most of which were intercepted. Iran launched the attack in retaliation for a suspected Israeli strike on its embassy compound in Syria earlier this month.
**“Ridiculous” Trump trial / gag order
(CNN or theSkimm Fri 4-19-24) The full 12-person jury has been seated in former President Donald Trump’s hush money criminal trial. The panel, which will eventually decide Trump’s fate in the case, is comprised of seven men and five women. The first of the pool of alternate jurors was also selected Thursday, leaving only five left to be selected today. If jury selection wraps up quickly, the judge will hold a hearing later today where they will discuss what in Trump’s legal history can be used to try to impeach him if he chooses to testify. Meanwhile, prosecutors said Trump violated his gag order seven more times, pointing to posts online and calling the situation “ridiculous.”
*‘Hindu nationalism’ India election
(CNN or theSkimm Fri 4-19-24) Polls open today for the first phase of India’s marathon general election, kicking off a vote in which Prime Minister Narendra Modi is seeking to win a rare third consecutive term. An estimated 969 million people are eligible to vote in what is considered to be one of the country’s most consequential elections in decades as Modi’s right-wing Bharatiya Janata Party aims for an outright majority and a mandate to widen its development and Hindu-nationalist policies established during its 10-year rule. Voting will take place in seven phases over the next six weeks in the world’s most populous country.
*TikTok ban: Sneaky R’s!
(CNN or theSkimm Fri 4-19-24) With the House set to vote on foreign aid on Saturday, Republicans have added a hot-button bill to the funding package that could lead to a nationwide TikTok ban. House lawmakers passed a bill in March that aims to remove the platform from US app stores, but it has become bogged down in the Senate. By including it in the aid package, House Republicans hope to force the Senate to a quick vote on a measure supporters say is necessary to protect Americans’ personal data from the Chinese government.
NOT READ: Opponents, including TikTok and a range of civil society groups, have argued the bill risks violating TikTok users’ First Amendment rights. The latest version of the TikTok bill sets out a nine-month timeframe for the app’s Chinese parent, ByteDance, to sell the social media company. If it misses the deadline, TikTok would be banned in the US.

*Taylor Swift releases surprise double album
(CNN or theSkimm Fri 4-19-24) The Grammy-winner shocked fans overnight with a 31-song double album. CNN has the catchiest tracks. BUT What’s causing a stir… An apparent album leak. Swifties went berserk after a Google Drive link allegedly containing Taylor Swift’s new album leaked online. “The Tortured Poets Department” dropped at midnight, and has reportedly received mixed reviews.

*Based Google vs LAME employees!
(CNN or theSkimm Fri 4-19-24) Where people made their voices heard… Google. Earlier this week, it fired 28 employees following protests against the company’s tech contract with the Israeli government. Employees staged sit-ins at Google’s offices in New York and California. Google said the protesters violated its policies when they prevented other employees from accessing the company’s facilities. The firings mark the latest point in tensions between employees and Google amid the Israel-Hamas war.
**NOT INCLUDED: **Liberal book publishers
(CNN or theSkimm Fri 4-19-24) QUOTE: “The alarming rise of book bans across the country demands our collective action.” — The “Big Five” publishers in the US, announcing they will join a lawsuit challenging an Iowa state law that bans certain books in schools and limits teachings on sexual orientation and gender identity. The controversial law, SF 496, requires K-12 school libraries to carry only books deemed “age-appropriate” — among other restrictions. The publishers argue the law deprives students of diverse literature and “discriminates against LGBTQ+ viewpoints and authors.”
