News Wrap: Johnson, Thune agree on path to fund DHS through September

[0:00] AMNA NAWAZ We start the day's other headlines with the latest on the partial government shutdown, [0:03] which is now the longest in U.S. history. House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader [0:09] John Thune say they've agreed on a path to fund the Department of Homeland Security through [0:13] September. The plan would omit funds for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and [0:18] Border Patrol, the agencies most directly responsible for President Trump's immigration [0:23] crackdown. Republicans would try to negotiate to fund those agencies later through separate [0:28] legislation. Lawmakers could vote on the plan as early as tomorrow, though the outcome is [0:33] far from certain. U.S. and Iraqi officials say an American journalist was warned of threats [0:39] against her in the days before she was kidnapped from the capital of Baghdad. [0:44] An Iraqi official says Shelly Kittleson entered Iraq from Syria prior to her abduction. [0:49] She remains missing. Security footage obtained by the Associated Press appears to show the moment [0:54] when two men push a person believed to be Kittleson [0:58] into the background of the incident. [0:58] The two men, who are in the back of a sedan in broad daylight. [1:01] Iraqi security forces say they've arrested one suspect. U.S. officials allege she was taken [1:06] by Qatab Hezbollah, an Iran-backed militia operating in Iraq. That group has not claimed [1:12] responsibility. Parts of the Israeli-occupied West Bank observed a general strike today. [1:19] Residents were protesting a new Israeli law that applies the death penalty for Palestinians [1:24] convicted of murdering Israelis, but not the reverse. Shops were closed and streets [1:29] emptied in places like Hebron and Ramallah as locals called on the international community to step [1:34] in. The pushback also took on more vocal forms. In Ramallah, demonstrators carrying Palestinian [1:45] flags and banners chanted freedom for the people. One Palestinian politician says the measure is [1:51] proof that Israel is not interested in peace. [1:54] ABDULLAH AL- This law reflects how deep fascism has become, [1:58] and this law is a reflection of how deep the system of apartheid against Palestinians is. [2:02] The law has drawn international criticism since its passage on Monday. [2:09] The U.S. has not commented. [2:12] In Ukraine, a rare daytime drone attack by Russia killed at least four people in the center of the [2:18] country, with other strikes hitting Ukraine's energy infrastructure. In western Ukraine, [2:23] charred remains were cleared after a strike caused extensive damage on a warehouse and postal [2:28] terminal. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned the attacks as he continued [2:33] to push for an Easter cease-fire. [2:35] In his nightly video address, Zelenskyy said he spoke with U.S. officials [2:39] on ways to, as he put it, strengthen diplomacy. [2:42] VOLODYMYR ZELENSKYY, Ukrainian President [2:45] I spoke to the American team today, in particular about this Russian attack. [2:49] Other signals are needed, and a truce on Easter could be just the signal that tells everyone [2:54] diplomacy can be successful. [2:55] AMNA NAWAZ A Kremlin official today [2:57] dismissed Zelenskyy's truce proposal, calling it a PR stunt. In the meantime, Russia's defense [3:02] ministry says its troops have taken a stand against the U.S. military. [3:03] Its troops have taken full control of Ukraine's eastern Luhansk region. [3:08] Kyiv disputed the claim, saying small areas are still held by Ukrainian forces. [3:13] Russia has previously made false claims of such advances. [3:17] Back here, the Food and Drug Administration approved Eli Lilly's new weight loss pill, [3:22] which will be branded as Foundeo. It's the second daily oral medication to hit the U.S. market [3:28] after the Wegovy pill by Novo Nordisk, and is expected to ship as early as Monday. [3:34] The company reported that people with obesity lost an average of 12 percent of their body weight [3:39] after 72 weeks. The drug will cost as little as $25 a month for those with insurance, [3:45] though that goes up to $349 for the uninsured. [3:50] Kid Rock has welcomed news that the Pentagon lifted its suspension [3:53] of the Army pilots who flew two helicopters near his home last weekend. [3:58] The musician and vocal Trump supporter reposted a statement from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth [4:04] that read, quote, [4:04] "- No punishment. No investigation. Carry on, patriots." [4:09] Kid Rock posted videos this weekend in which he salutes one of the helicopters as it hovered [4:14] outside his Nashville area home. That prompted an internal Army investigation. [4:19] The helicopters also flew over a No Kings protest in the area, [4:23] which some attendees viewed as intimidation. [4:27] SpaceX has reportedly filed paperwork for what could be the largest stock market listing [4:32] in history. Multiple media outlets reported the [4:35] crash, with some saying the stock could value the rocket and satellite maker at more than $1.7 [4:41] trillion. That could make its founder, Elon Musk, the world's first trillionaire. [4:46] In the meantime, on Wall Street today, stocks added to yesterday's gains amid [4:50] ongoing hopes for an end to the Iran war. The Dow Jones industrial average rose more [4:55] than 200 points on the day. The Nasdaq jumped 250 points, or more than 1 percent. [5:00] The S&P 500 also closed in positive territory. [5:04] AMNA NAWAZ And Apple is saying, [5:05] celebrating 50 years of ingenuity and innovation, setbacks and success. [5:11] On this date in 1976, founders Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak signed a two-page document [5:16] that first created the company. A year later, they had their first big success with the Apple II [5:22] computer. The company hit a rough patch in the 1980s, which saw Jobs leave the company. [5:27] He later came back, as did Apple, thanks to the iPod, iPhone and iPad. [5:33] And, fun fact, if you've bought 100 shares of Apple, you're going to have to buy 100 shares of Apple. [5:35] If you bought Apple stock when it first listed in 1980 at $22 a share, [5:39] you would have more than $5 million today, if only. [5:43] Still to come on the NewsHour, rape survivor Gisele Pelicot authors a new book about her ordeal [5:50] that sparked a global outcry. And the Artemis II rocket aims for the moon in NASA's latest mission. [5:57] This is the PBS NewsHour from the David M. Rubenstein Studio at WETA in Washington, [6:07] headquarters of PBS News.
