White House admits quid pro quo over Ukraine aid
White House acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney made a stunning admission by confirming that President Donald Trump froze nearly $400 million in US security aid to Ukraine in part to pressure that country into investigating Democrats.
Mulvaney insisted that he only knew of a US request to investigate the handling of a Democratic National Committee server hacked in the 2016 election, but text messages between US diplomats show efforts to get Ukraine to commit to an investigation into Burisma, the company on whose board former Vice President Joe Biden's son sat. There is no evidence of wrongdoing in Ukraine by either Biden.
"That's why we held up the money," Mulvaney said after listing the 2016-related investigation and Trump's broader concerns about corruption in Ukraine.
After weeks during which Trump denied the existence of any political quid pro quo in his withholding of security aid to Ukraine, Mulvaney confirmed the existence of a quid pro quo and offered this retort: "Get over it."

US touts ceasefire in Syria, but Turkey calls it a 'pause'
US Vice President Mike Pence announced that he and President Erdogan of Turkey agreed to a ceasefire halting Turkey's incursion into northern Syria.
The deal appears to secure Turkey most of its military objectives and forces America's one-time Kurdish allies in the fight against ISIS to cede a vast swath of territory.
Speaking in Ankara, Turkey, Pence said the "Turkish side will pause Operation Peace Spring in order to allow for the withdrawal of YPG forces from the safe zone for 120 hours."
"All military operations will be paused, and Operation Peace Spring will be halted entirely on completion of the withdrawal," he said.
Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said the reached agreement between the US and Turkey to suspend military operations in Syria is not a ceasefire.
“We will pause the operation for 120 hours in order for the terrorists to leave,” Cavusoglu said. "We will only stop the operation if our conditions are met.”

Trump to host G7 at his own Florida resort property
White House acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney announced during a White House press briefing that the 2020 G7 summit will be held at Trump National in Doral, Florida, from June 10-12.
"We used the same set of criteria that previous administrations have used," Mulvaney said.
He said Doral was "far and away the best physical facility for this meeting."
President Donald Trump is sure to receive criticism and will face questions about whether he stands to profit financially from the large summit. Trump has received such criticism in the past for hosting foreign leaders, including China's President Xi Jinping, at his Mar-a-Lago golf club in Florida.
Doral has the best facilities of all the sites under consideration, Mulvaney told reporters.
Mulvaney defended hosting the 2020 G7 at Doral, saying that Trump will not be profiting in "any way, shape or form."

Prince Harry teared up at a children's charity event as he recalled the time when only he and his wife, Meghan, knew they were expecting their first child. Both of us were thinking what it would be like to be parents one day, and more so what it would be like to do everything we could to protect and help our child should they be born with immediate challenges or become unwell over time. The couple's child, Archie, was born in May.

NASA just revealed the spacesuit to be worn by the first woman to land on the moon 🚀👩🚀 The space agency's Artemis program is focused on sending two astronauts — one male, one female — to moon's surface by 2024, a process that required an upgrade to the spacesuits worn by Apollo-era astronauts in the 1960s and 70s. NASA said it used 3D scanning to design a closer fit for individual astronauts, giving them more mobility while still protecting them from radiation, extreme temperatures, and micrometeoroids.

Chloe Newman lost her right leg when she was a baby, so when Mattel released a Barbie with a prosthetic leg, she wanted to give them to kids just like her. The 18-year-old and her family donated about 430 Barbies on Monday to Shriners Hospital for Children in Springfield, Massachusetts. I think that they would feel better about themselves maybe, or at least that's what I'm hoping that they would say. 'Oh that's really cool, they're making a Barbie like me, so why should I be ashamed of myself if there's now toys like me,' Newman told CNN affiliate WWLP.

A new study suggests the climate crisis is increasing the risk of Ebola spreading beyond current outbreak areas in West Africa, and potentially hitting China, Russia, India, Europe and the United States by 2070. The study cited several factors contributing to the risk, including changes to animal habitats that increase the rate of animal-to-human communication of the deadly disease.

A new law in California guarantees all students will receive lunch at school even if their parents or guardians have not paid their meal fees. It also ensures that the pupil is not shamed or treated differently from other pupils. Gov. Gavin Newsom said he was inspired by a 9-year-old who used his allowance — all $74.80 of it — to pay off his third grade class's lunch debt. He showed how at many schools across the country, students whose parents are not able to pay for their lunch are given a cheaper, 'alternative' lunch that causes them to stick out from their peers, the governor said. I want to thank Ryan for his empathy and his courage in bringing awareness to this important issue. A survey by the School Nutrition Association found that three-fourths of school districts reported having unpaid student meal debt at the end of the 2016-2017 school year.

Vandals threw red paint on statues of Christopher Columbus in San Francisco and Providence, Rhode Island, on Monday, the US federal holiday honoring the Italian explorer. The holiday has come under intense scrutiny in recent years, with historians and activists pointing to Columbus' role in colonizing North America, killing native people and spreading slavery. Several US cities and state governments have opted to rename the holiday Indigenous Peoples' Day to honor indigenous history and culture.
