Meanwhile, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Russia, calling Putin "my dear friend," while Russia launched a new offensive in Ukraine, tragically hitting the country's largest children's hospital. In the US, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is working with Democrats on legislation to counter the Supreme Court's ruling that grants Trump immunity from criminal prosecution. On the environmental front, sea-level rise has potentially wiped out the Key Largo tree cactus, marking the first time climate change has eradicated a US species.
