US sends USS Wasp assault ship and Marines to eastern Mediterranean
The U.S. Navy amphibious assault ship USS Wasp and the Marines aboard are being sent to the eastern Mediterranean to serve as a deterrent and provide the U.S. military with options as tensions continue to rise between Hezbollah and Israel along the border with Lebanon, according to three U.S. officials. The officials stressed that the ship's movement is not an indication that the U.S. is planning to move American citizens out of Lebanon, but that it is moving for deterrence reasons similar to the earlier deployments of the amphibious ship USS Bataan and the aircraft carrier USS Gerald Ford following Hamas' Oct. 7 attack against Israel.

Judge orders hearing to consider tossing key evidence in Trump classified docs case
The federal judge overseeing Donald Trump's classified documents case on Thursday ordered an additional hearing to determine whether prosecutors improperly used evidence protected by attorney-client privilege to secure their indictment against the former president. In an 11-page ruling issued Thursday, Judge Aileen Cannon wrote that an additional hearing was necessary to resolve "pertinent factual disputes" related to key evidence in the case. As previously reported by ABC News, prosecutors have relied on the notes of Trump's former lead attorney Evan Corcoran to support their allegations that the former president obstructed justice by hiding classified documents from investigators.

How much is Jamaal Bowman's loss a warning for progressives?
Progressive Democrats undeniably suffered their most significant defeat of the 2024 election cycle Tuesday when Rep. Jamaal Bowman lost his New York 16th Congressional District's Democratic primary. Bowman's defeat at the hands of Westchester County Executive George Latimer laid bare the nasty divisions among Democrats over support for Israel. Pro-Israel outside groups dumped nearly $15 million -- an unprecedented amount of cash -- into the race, fueling an avalanche of ads that knocked Bowman and promoted Latimer's own liberal bona fides on issues like abortion.

New monolith appears in Colorado: Timeline of 'mysterious' columns around the world
The latest monolith sighting appeared on a hill in Bellvue, Colorado, over 70 miles outside of Denver. The rectangular, mirrored structure appeared this week and reportedly has no known connection to the Las Vegas monolith, which appeared earlier this month, according to ABC News' Denver affiliate KMGH . Monoliths are believed to stem from Arthur C. Clarke's "Space Odyssey" series and Stanley Kubruck's 1968 famed sci-fi film "2001: A Space Odyssey," where aliens used large, black monolith-shaped machines as a guide to monitor and control humans' evolution.
