President Biden is preparing to sign a new foreign aid bill into law. On Tuesday, the Senate passed a 95-billion-dollar emergency foreign aid package, which included funding for Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, and the Indo-Pacific. The bill also laid the groundwork to ban the social media app TikTok in the U.S. Biden praised the Senate's decision and said he would sign the bill today.       Former President Donald Trump's criminal hush money trial resumes Thursday in New York City. Former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker is expected to continue testifying for a third day, after explaining to the court how he paid people for the rights to negative stories about Trump only to never publish them in order to protect the presidential candidate. He's also expected to be questioned about Stormy Daniels, the adult film star whose alleged affair with Trump is at the heart of the criminal case.       A bill allowing Tennessee teachers to carry guns is heading to the governor's desk. The bill allows for specially-trained teachers to carry handguns in their classrooms, and parents would not know if their kids' teacher was armed or not. The measure passed the State House Tuesday along party lines, with only four Republicans voting against it. Republican Governor Bill Lee has indicated support for the measure, but says he needs to see all the details before signing.       The Federal Trade Commission is banning noncompete agreements. According to the FTC, about 18-percent of the U.S. workforce is covered by these agreements, which stops them from working for competitors or starting a new competing business when leaving a job.        Tesla is reporting its lowest quarterly earnings since 2021. Despite the report, shares soared after hours as the electric automaker suggested more affordable models are on the way. First quarter earnings fell 47 percent. Stock prices jumped more than ten percent after the market closed.       A new Johnny Cash album is coming out more than two decades after his death. Universal Music is issuing "Songwriter," a collection of eleven previously unreleased demos Cash recorded in 1993. All of them are self-written originals, according to "Variety."
