The newspapers extensively report on two major events. First, House Republicans passed Trump's major budget legislation after an all-night session (Boston Globe, CBS, Common Dreams, HuffPost, Newsweek, The Hill, USA Today). The bill includes significant tax cuts alongside major reductions to Medicaid and SNAP benefits, with partisan characterizations ranging from "big beautiful bill" (Newsweek, The Hill) to "heist of the century" (HuffPost). Second, coverage continues of the fatal shooting of two Israeli embassy staffers outside a Jewish museum in DC (ABC, AP, CNN, Fox News, NY Post). The victims were described as "a young couple about to be engaged" (CNN, NY Post), with the suspect reportedly shouting "Free Palestine" after his arrest (AP, Fox News, NY Post).09:25⇢Israeli Embassy Couple Gunned Down Outside DC Jewish Museum
The newspapers extensively report on a deadly shooting in Washington, DC, where two Israeli Embassy staff members, described as a couple planning to get engaged, were killed outside the Capital Jewish Museum (ABC, AP, Boston Globe, Breitbart, CBS, CNN, Fox News, LA Times, NBC, NPR, NY Post, NYTimes, Newsweek, Washington Post). The suspect, identified as 30-year-old Elias Rodriguez from Chicago, reportedly shouted "Free, free Palestine!" after being arrested (AP, Fox News, NPR, NY Post, NYTimes). Former President Trump responded to the killings, stating that such "hatred and radicalism have no place in USA" (Breitbart, Newsweek). In other news, Pentagon leaker Jack Teixeira has spoken out from prison for the first time (ABC), and USA Today reports on the eviction of Elizabeth Oshiro, the last of the "Nooksack 306" to lose her home and tribal membership.05:48⇢Israeli Embassy Staff Killed in DC Pro-Palestine Attack

The suspect, identified as 30-year-old Elias Rodriguez from Chicago, reportedly shouted "Free, free Palestine!" after being arrested (AP, Breitbart, LA Times, NPR, NYTimes). This attack occurs amid ongoing Middle East tensions, with Netanyahu claiming Israel "probably" killed Hamas leader Mohammed Sinwar and vowing all of Gaza will remain under Israeli control (CNN). Meanwhile, Congressional negotiations continue on the Republican tax bill, with CBO analysis showing it would add $2.3 trillion to the deficit (Boston Globe, Reason).03:40⇢GOP Megabill Clears Committee After Overnight Marathon
The newspapers report extensively on a Republican tax bill advancing through the House. After a marathon overnight committee session, the GOP "megabill" or "Trump agenda bill" is headed for a floor vote after Republican leadership won over holdouts (Fox News, NBC, NPR, The Epoch Times, The Hill, USA Today). The legislation centers on trillions in tax cuts partially offset by changes to safety net programs like Medicaid and SNAP (NPR). In breaking news, two Israeli Embassy staff were shot and killed outside a Jewish Museum in DC, with a suspect reportedly in custody (CBS). Rep. James Comer announced plans to intensify Biden family investigations (Breitbart), while California faces cancellation of critical FEMA earthquake retrofit grants (LA Times).01:35⇢Trump's South Africa Showdown Intensifies
The newspapers extensively report on the controversial meeting between President Trump and South African President Ramaphosa. Trump showed what multiple outlets describe as misleading or out-of-context videos to support his claims about white genocide in South Africa (ABC, CNN, Washington Post). A federal judge ruled that the Trump administration "unquestionably" violated a court order regarding deportations to South Sudan (NPR, HuffPost, NBC, USA Today). Congressional chaos continues over the Republican tax bill, which CBO analysis shows would add $2.3 trillion to the deficit (Boston Globe, Reason, The Hill). In entertainment news, ABC News reportedly asked "The View" to tone down Trump criticism (Daily Beast), while sports fans celebrated as the Knicks hosted the Pacers in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals (NY Post).00:05⇢Trump's White Genocide Showdown
The newspapers extensively report on President Trump's confrontation with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa over claims of "white genocide" in South Africa. Trump screened videos allegedly showing persecution of white Afrikaners in an Oval Office meeting described by multiple outlets as an "ambush" (ABC, AP, CBS, CNN, NYTimes, USA Today, Washington Post). Media sources are divided, with conservative outlets like Breitbart praising Trump's actions while mainstream media largely characterizes the genocide claims as "false" or "baseless." Meanwhile, House Speaker Johnson advances Trump's tax legislation (Boston Globe, MSNBC), which faces criticism after CBO analysis. In sports news, the Knicks face the Pacers in the Eastern Conference finals (NY Post) and Colts owner Jim Irsay has died at 65 (Newsweek).22:12⇢South African Showdown in the Oval Office
The newspapers extensively report on a tense Oval Office confrontation between President Trump and South African President Ramaphosa over claims of white persecution in South Africa (ABC, AP, Boston Globe, Breitbart, CBS, CNN, Fox News, NYTimes, Washington Post). The conflict escalated when South African politician Julius Malema responded by doubling down with inflammatory anti-farmer rhetoric (Breitbart). New developments include controversy over Jan. 6 rioters visiting the White House (NPR), DHS violating court orders by deporting migrants to South Sudan (NBC, Vox), and CBO analysis showing the GOP tax bill would add $2.3 trillion to the deficit (Reason, Common Dreams). Congressional negotiations continue as Trump meets with Republican holdouts ahead of tonight's bill vote (Newsweek, The Hill).Yesterday ⇢ South African Confrontation in the Oval Office
