Donald Trump will be back in court this morning as jury selection resumes in his New York criminal trial. Seven jurors have been chosen so far for the panel of 12. Six alternates will also be selected. The former President is accused of falsifying business records in order to cover up payments allegedly made to an adult film star just prior to the 2016 election.        Members of the Kennedy family will endorse President Joe Biden for re-election today, a rebuff of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s independent run for the White House. More than 15 members of the famous political family will give their endorsement at a campaign event in Philadelphia. Kennedy is backed by 15 percent of registered voters, according to a recent poll.        Things are getting back to normal after a widespread 911 outage was reported in at least four states. Authorities say residents in parts of Nebraska, Nevada, South Dakota and Texas were unable to call the emergency number. Service was finally restored late Wednesday In Las Vegas and early this morning in Nebraska and South Dakota.        The President of Columbia University is facing criticism on Capitol Hill over antisemitism on campus. New York Republican Elise Stefanik claimed Columbia is not taking enough action against faculty members who spew anti-Israel rhetoric. Columbia's president said the university has taken multiple steps following the October 7th attack on Israel.        The Justice Department is paying over 100-million dollars to the victims of Larry Nassar. The Wall Street Journal says the department agreed to make the payment as compensation for the FBI's mishandling of the investigation into the former USA Gymnastics team doctor. Nassar was sentenced in 2018 for abusing over 500 women.       Performers at California's Disneyland park are filing a petition to unionize. On Wednesday, Disney performers announced they're ready to hold a vote on union representation. That vote will likely happen in May or June.
