Good Morning DC,
Hunter Biden is again the talk of the town after a new batch of private, hacked materials claiming to belong to the son of the President have been posted on 4Chan. Allegedly, Hunter’s iPhone password has been hacked, giving the hackers access to all his backed-up content now widely shared on Twitter.
The authenticity of the content has not been verified yet and the White House did not issue any statements.
Your top news stories of today are below.
THE WHITE HOUSE
Yesterday in Delaware, Biden went on another bike ride, this time without the clamps. The President sent a message to abortion rights activists protesting outside the White House to “keep protesting” and make their point heard.
“We can do a lot of things to accommodate the rights of women in the meantime. But, fundamentally, the only thing that’s going to change this is if we have a national law that reinstates Roe v. Wade. That’s the bottom line.”
Biden said his “ultimate” goal is to reinstate Roe v. Wade as the national law by passing it in the Congress. “I’ll sign it the moment that happens,” said the President.
This morning, at the White House, Biden will commemorate a gun violence reduction legislation, the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act.
In the afternoon, Biden and Harris will be briefed by NASA. They will preview the first color images of the universe captured by the Webb Space Telescope, the most complex space science telescope ever built.
DIGITAL ASSETS
Twitter shares are 6.6% down after Elon Musk pulled out of the acquisition deal.
The Financial Stability Board (FSB), an international body that monitors and makes recommendations about the global financial system, espoused its view on the international regulation and supervision of crypto-asset activities.
“Crypto-assets and markets must be subject to effective regulation and oversight commensurate to the risks they pose, both at the domestic and international level.”
FOREIGN AFFAIRS
“Boris Johnson sold us lies as truth,” the Wives of Westminster splash on the front page of the portal.
Liz Truss has launched her campaign for the Conservative leadership, but Dominic Cummings says she is “unfit.”
Nadine Dorries has accused Cummins and Rishi Sunak of working together. “Cummings believes he can control Rishi and sees a role for himself back in government, and that is quite terrifying,” Dorries told The Daily Mail.
Sunak denies links to Cummings. What’s fascinating, though, is how prepared and advanced Sunak’s campaign was on day one in what was billed as an ad-hock leadership contest.
Boris Johnson is on his way out, but he’s still at the No.10, making decisions past his mandate. If the Conservative MPs do not tell Johnson to vacate N0.10 immediately, the Labour will put a motion of no-confidence in the government this week.
Leaked documents have shown how Uber secretly lobbied leaders worldwide, including then VP President Joe Biden, Macron and many others.
In Sri Lanka, the protestors say they will continue to occupy the luxury residences of the President and Prime Minister until they leave office. Sri Lanka’s President has confirmed that he intends to resign in two days.
Novak Djokovic, the best tennis player in the world, has won Wimbledon for a fourth consecutive time.
