Today’s Headlines: In the aftermath of Tuesday's New Hampshire primary, Donald Trump secured 54.3% of the vote, overshadowing Nikki Haley's 43.3%. Despite Haley's optimistic rhetoric, the results indicate that Trump may not be as universally popular as he wishes. President Biden received a crucial endorsement from the president of the United Auto Workers union, Shawn Fain, bolstering his support among working-class voters. A disturbing revelation comes from research indicating that since Roe v. Wade was overturned in 2022, an estimated 65,000 pregnancies resulting from rape occurred in states with abortion bans lacking exceptions for rape. In Washington state, a $150 million settlement with Johnson & Johnson over its role in the opioid crisis was announced, with funds allocated for substance abuse treatment and litigation costs. Ohio's Republican state legislators overrode their governor's veto to ban gender-affirming healthcare for minors, impacting trans youths' access to treatments. Lastly, a Boeing 757 operated by Delta experienced a nose wheel incident during takeoff in Atlanta, adding to Boeing's recent troubles.
