According to Donald Trump, his hush money trial is "a sham." While exiting the court Friday, Trump again slammed his gag order, noting star witness Michael Cohen can say anything. The jury might start deliberating soon after the prosecution told the judge they plan to call two more witnesses, and could rest their case by the end of next week. One of those witnesses is ex-Trump lawyer Michael Cohen, the centerpiece to the case.       Top Republicans are harshly criticizing the Biden administration's decision to halt weapon shipments to Israel. Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell sent a letter to President Biden expressing alarm over the administration's decision to put a hold on a shipment of bombs. The leaders said security assistance to Israel "is an urgent priority that must not be delayed."       Donald Trump's 18-year-old son is declining an invitation to be a state delegate for the Florida Republican Party. Earlier this week, the Florida GOP chairman said Barron Trump would be one of Florida's at-large delegates at the July convention, where the party will officially make Donald Trump its presidential nominee. Then on Friday, former first lady Melania Trump issued a statement saying while Barron was "honored to have been chosen as a delegate" he must "regretfully decline" due to "prior commitments."        The U.S. is rolling out a new 400-million dollar military aid package for Ukraine as Russia launches a major offensive in the northeast city of Kharkiv. The package includes Patriot missiles, singer anti-aircraft missiles, and other munitions. The aid comes weeks after Congress passed a national security supplemental that provides for more than 60-billion in assistance for Kyiv.       McDonald's is reportedly working on a new five-dollar value meal as consumers pull back on fast-food spending. According to CNBC, the proposed meal could feature a McChicken or McDouble, four-piece chicken nuggets, fries and a drink. The move comes after company CEO recently said McDonald's has to be "laser-focused" on affordability to attract diners.        The NBA Playoffs continue today with two games. In the East, the New York Knicks will travel to Indiana to take on the Pacers in game two of their series. In the West, the Denver Nuggets will head to Minnesota to face the Timberwolves for game two. ### Source/tr
