The Los Angeles Police Department said 93 people were arrested on suspicion of trespassing during Wednesday's demonstrations at the University of Southern California. This year’s dinner comes against the backdrop of two wars — in the Gaza Strip and in Ukraine — and a wave of pro-Palestianian protests that have raged on college campuses across the U.S. Journalists, politicians and entertainers will gather Saturday night to eat, laugh and raise money at the annual White House Correspondents’ Association dinner. Certain to puncture some egos and boost others, Fox News Channel’s Jimmy Failla will host Fox News Saturday Night from the WHCD red carpet from 9-11 p.m. Set to sit down with other FNC talents like White House correspondent Peter Doocy and Fox News Sunday anchor Shannon Bream, Failla will also offer commentary on both Biden and Jost’s remarks.

Israel-Hamas war

Nardine Saad covers breaking entertainment news, trending culture topics, celebrities and their kin for the Fast Break Desk at the Los Angeles Times. She joined The Times in 2010 as a MetPro trainee and has reported from homicide scenes, flooded canyons, red carpet premieres and award shows. Blacc encouraged people “to offer a moment of joy” when they reach out and to share a positive memory that’s going to bring the person joy. The 56-year-old also opened up about her own mental health struggles and successes.

Biden says national security package will deliver 'critical support'

President Joe Biden’s Speech to Congress on April 28 will be his first speech to Congress as President. As is tradition, the first address to Congress for any new President is called a Joint Address, rather than the State of the Union address. The President will address a Joint Session of Congress at the United States Capitol on Wednesday, April 28, 2021 at 9pm EDT. In our commitment to covering our communities with innovation and excellence, we incorporate Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies to enhance our news gathering, reporting, and presentation processes. PT, MSNBC will be inside the WHCD, again with coverage hosted by Mohyeldin. For those who can’t make it in person, the WHCD will be broadcast live on several outlets and online beginning at 8 p.m.

California housing crisis so bad once-modest towns have become ‘million-dollar cities’

The White House livestream will feature supplemental information from senior Administration officials as part of our enhanced viewing experience. The Comcast-owned outlet has both pre-dinner and afterparty events planned, as well as live coverage starting at 6 p.m. Along with Saturday Night Live’s Colin Jost, Biden will be the headliner at the annual gathering of politicians, the journalists who cover them, titans of industry, and celebrities. McConnell implored Trump at the time to negotiate directly with Pelosi and House Democrats, aides said — and the two parties were able to push off the prospect of a debt default beyond Trump’s presidency despite political turmoil elsewhere. McCarthy, R-Calif., has staked his speakership on extracting concessions from Biden in exchange for raising the borrowing limit, with some of his members insisting they would withhold their votes on a debt measure unless all of their proposals made the final legislation.

Biden, on the other hand, is set to reinforce his opposition to allowing the country’s full faith and credit to be held “hostage” to negotiations — and to affirm his willingness to hold talks on the budget only after default is no longer a threat. A speech from the Oval Office is one of the most prestigious platforms that a president can command, an opportunity to try to seize the country’s attention at a moment of crisis. ABC, NBC and CBS all said they would break into regular programming to carry the address live. WASHINGTON (AP) — Declaring that U.S. leadership “holds the world together,” President Joe Biden told Americans on Thursday night the country must deepen its support of Ukraine and Israel in the middle of two vastly different, unpredictable and bloody wars. Zelenskyy, in an exclusive interview with NBC News after the joint news conference with Biden, said his meetings with lawmakers were helpful in that he got a chance to offer a detailed explanation of progress in his country’s war against Russia.

Trump on Trial

Biden unveiled plans to ramp up federal resources to help people endure extreme heat and to boost climate resilience measures in parts of the Southwest. Biden’s decision to include funding for the Indo-Pacific in his proposal is a nod toward the potential for another international conflict. China wants to reunify the self-governing island of Taiwan with its mainland, a goal that could be carried out through force.

As President Biden held a news conference to tout his administration's achievements during his first year in office, Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin criticized his party over their push to end the filibuster in order to advance legislation on voting rights. “His sharp insights perfectly meet this remarkable time of divided politics, and a presidential campaign careening toward a rematch,” she added. “His smart brand of comedy and keen observation will turn up the heat on the national news media and across the political spectrum. Already looking past the meeting, Biden on Wednesday is to go to Westchester County, New York, where he plans to deliver a speech on how proposed spending cuts approved by House Republicans could hurt teachers, older adults needing food aid and veterans seeking health care.

Anti-war protesters dig in as some schools close …

Like so many California real estate deals, you have to journey off the beaten path, make compromises and have some imagination. Judd said she relied on her “chosen family” to process her mother’s death, as Aloe Blacc did with his own after Avicii’s suicide. A day after Naomi Judd’s death, the Country Music Hall of Fame moved forward with the induction of her and daughter Wynonna. “I’m here because I am my beloved mother’s daughter and on the day she died, which will be the two-year anniversary in one week, the disease of mental illness was lying to her and with great terror convinced her that it would never get better,” Judd continued. The Los Angeles Police Department arrested approximately 50 protestors at the University of Southern California after campus police gave a dispersal order to demonstrators, according to a CNN crew at the scene.

Both communities in the Riverside-San Bernardino metropolitan area saw home values dip about 17% in the last year. “In Trona, you’re talking about 115-degree summers, but people adjust and they get through,” Berri said. Mining production increased and the town boomed to 6,000 people at its height. But as the nearby town of Ridgecrest grew and the mining company shrunk, Trona withered. After adding 12 this year, California accounts for 210 of the country’s 550 cities where the typical home value is more than $1 million, according to an analysis by Zillow. “It’s gone downhill, but it seems to be coming back a bit,” Epperly, 80, said of the once-bustling town, built on the mining and production of borax, a potent cleaner, flame retardant and component in glass products like car windshields.

The move comes five days before Mr. Trump, who endorsed Mr. Rogers for the seat, returns to the battleground state for a rally in Freeland, Mich. The R.N.C. did not propose an alternative location for the demonstration zone in the letter, instead suggesting that the Secret Service expand the security perimeter to move protesters away from the area. The three-page letter, signed by Todd R. Steggerda, counsel to the Republican National Committee, objected to the placement of an area where protesters would be allowed to demonstrate. Mr. Steggerda argued that convention attendees would be forced to pass by the protesters on their way into the venue, raising the potential for confrontations. Shawn Fain, the president of the United Automobile Workers, announced late on Friday night a tentative contract at Daimler Truck in North Carolina that appears to have stopped a strike that was scheduled to begin at midnight.

With Jost as the night’s main entertainer, expect his wife and superstar Scarlett Johansson to be there too. That SNL and Avengers star power will feature on a guest list that includes Chris Pine, Da’Vine Joy Rudolph and Jon Hamm. Rosario Dawson, Andrew McCarthy, Hiro Sanada, Sonequa Martin-Green, Molly Ringwald and Rachel Brosnahan, as well as Netflix’s The Diplomat stars Keri Russell and Rufus Sewell and series creator Debora Cahn, are among those also planning to attend the dinner. The Diplomat team will also be headlining a Deadline event at the Irish ambassador’s residence on Saturday morning. ET and can be streamed live online at C-SPAN.org and the C-SPAN Now App. Proceeds raised at the dinner, which is a celebration of the First Amendment, go towards the WHCA and the journalists who work to cover the president.

Zelenskyy said during remarks at the White House that Ukraine is "gradually becoming less dependent on aid" and "moving in the right direction," according to a pool report. Vance also reiterated that he believes “there will be negotiation” and Ukraine should be willing to give up at least some of its territory to end the war, which began in February 2022. "Ukraine will emerge from this war, proud, free and firmly rooted in the West, unless we walk away," Biden said. Zelenskyy highlighted his country's fight for freedom, arguing that the freedom of one country affects others.

Biden’s previous request for funding, which included $24 billion to help with the next few months of fighting, was stripped out of budget legislation last month despite a personal plea from Zelenskyy. Biden faces an array of steep challenges as he tries to secure the money. The House remains in chaos because the Republican majority has been unable to select a speaker to replace Rep. Kevin McCarthy, who was ousted more than two weeks ago.
