What's kicking off...

The G-7 Summit. Today, world leaders and representatives from seven major industrial countries (US, UK, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, and Italy) are meeting in Hiroshima, Japan. Other nations that are important players in regional politics like India, Indonesia, and South Korea were also invited as tensions between the West and China deepen. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is also expected to attend in person. Other topics on the mind? the Ukraine-Russia conflict, inflation, and the US debt ceiling debate.

Who had a busy day…

The Supreme Court. Yesterday, the justices sided with Big Tech in two lawsuits on whether they can be held liable for the events that occurred in the 2017 ISIS attack and the 2015 Paris terror attacks. At the center of both cases is Section 230 — a rule that protects online platforms from lawsuits over the content that users post. Yesterday, the justices unanimously threw out the Twitter case where the family argued that Twitter did not properly block extremist content to prevent the ISIS attack that killed 39. The justices also sent the Google case back to the lower courts because they don't believe the Section 230 argument can be used against Google in the Paris attack that killed an American student. A lawyer for one of the families said they were disappointed and would continue to fight Google in court. Advocates called it “a huge win for free speech on the internet.”

…Oh and speaking of the Supreme Court, yesterday the justices ruled Andy Warhol had infringed on a photographer’s copyright after he created his artwork of Prince. Art popped.

Where an investigation could be underway…

Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Yesterday, authorities confirmed an 8-year-old girl died in CBP custody from a “medical emergency” on Wednesday. Anadith Tanay Reyes Alvarez was being held along with her family in Harlingen, TX, in the Rio Grande Valley — reportedly one of the busiest areas for migrant crossings. Officials are investigating her death (which is standard protocol) and a judge has ordered an autopsy. Alvarez was born with heart problems and did have an operation three years ago. Now, her death comes just a week after a 17-year-old Honduran boy died while in the custody of the Department of Health and Human Services. Alvarez’s death could be the first known death of a migrant child in CBP custody since the Trump admin. All of this comes as the Biden admin lifted Title 42 restrictions just last week.

What could be coming soon…

An RSV vaccine for newborns. Yesterday, an FDA advisory panel recommended Pfizer's single-dose shot for newborns. Up to 500 kids under five each year die due to complications from RSV. More than 57,000 others are hospitalized. The vaccine would be given to pregnant mothers between weeks 24 and 36 of pregnancy in order to protect babies from the virus. It comes nearly two weeks after the FDA approved the vaccines for adults 60 and older. While the panel unanimously agreed on the vaccine’s efficacy, they did have some concerns over preterm birth rates. If approved by the FDA, the shot would be the first that protects babies from RSV. A decision could come by August.
