As Donald Trump turns 78 on Friday, his campaign is trying to paint 2024 rival President Joe Biden as mentally incompetent by distorting a moment from Biden's trip overseas this week to the G7 summit that has gone viral on social media. "From Italy to the United Kingdom to New York, millions of people around the world woke up to headlines about Crooked Joe Biden's cognitive decline on full display at the G7 Summit," Trump campaign spokesperson Karoline Leavitt wrote in a statement. Leavitt was referring to a skydiving demonstration Biden attended on Thursday alongside other world leaders gathered in Italy.

A Supreme Court abortion ruling that voters will be happy about
On Thursday, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that plaintiffs did not have standing to challenge the Food and Drug Administration's guidelines on mifepristone, one of the drugs used in medication abortions. The decision means that women will continue to have access to the pill without an in-person doctor's appointment. The Supreme Court has become quite unpopular in the wake of 2022's Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization ruling and a series of ethics scandals.

Republicans, Trump work to clarify Milwaukee 'horrible city' comment as Democrats, Biden seize on it
Former President Donald Trump's comments reportedly calling Milwaukee a "horrible city" continue to spark debate as Republicans and Trump's campaign dispute the characterization of his comments, and Democrats persistently amplify his words -- including through a new billboard campaign in the city.

US humanitarian aid pier off Gaza to halt shipments for 3rd time in a month
The U.S. military is planning to suspend operations of its pier off Gaza on Friday, temporarily moving the floating structure to an Israeli port to ride out high seas and rough waves expected to hit the region in coming days, according to an official familiar with the plans. It's the third time in a month that the structure halted operations due to weather and is the latest setback for the ambitious $230 million humanitarian project involving 1,000 US troops. Complicating the matter is that humanitarian aid that has been transported ashore via the pier is being held at a nearby facility after the U.N. suspended deliveries last week due to security concerns.

Bud Light boycott still hammers local distributors 1 year later: 'Very upsetting'
When conservative activists set aflame boxes of Bud Light and urged a boycott in response to an endorsem*nt from a trans influencer last spring, they sent sales of the beer plummeting in a rare success in the long history of consumer movements. Most of the wholesalers, small- and medium-sized businesses that draw a significant portion of their revenue from Bud Light, said they remain weakened by the decline in sales and uncertain about when, if ever, the brand will fully recover. The owner of an Anheuser-Busch wholesaler in the Northeast, whose child is trans, told ABC News they have taken a 30% pay cut to make up for the losses and are considering retirement.

Extra moisture on West Coast allowing climate-sensitive Joshua trees to recover: Experts
One of the natural wonders of the world facing threats from climate change may have gotten a fleeting reprieve as a result of extra moisture over the past couple of years. Populations of the iconic Joshua tree may be showing signs of recovery after several rounds of atmospheric rivers inundated the West Coast -- including California's Mojave and Colorado deserts -- with record amounts of precipitation over the past year and a half, experts told ABC News. The extra precipitation allow the adult trees to better handle the heat due to the additional soil moisture, and there is more likelihood that the younger trees will survive the driest and hottest months, Cummings told ABC News.
