Today’s Headlines: French prosecutors have arrested Telegram CEO Pavel Durov as part of an investigation involving a range of serious charges, including money laundering, drug trafficking, and child pornography. Durov remains in police custody without formal charges. Meanwhile, Texas has removed over 1 million voters from its rolls under Governor Greg Abbott’s voter-suppression measures, sparking a DOJ investigation request by the Latino civil rights group LULAC over targeted raids. Special Counsel Jack Smith is appealing a judge’s decision to dismiss Trump’s classified documents case, and in Alaska, a deadly landslide has claimed one life. Additionally, a CDC report shows a 117% rise in heat-related deaths between 1999 and 2023, as extreme temperatures continue to escalate. Finally, Los Angeles will pay over $38 million to settle a lawsuit for falsely claiming its affordable housing units were accessible to people with disabilities.
