Biden's Call for Democratic Renewal at Global Summit Tested Amid Turmoil.
President Biden will address a global Summit for Democracy today and call for up to $690 million in new funding for his initiative for democratic renewal, which aims to support democracy and fight corruption worldwide. The United States did not invite Turkey or Hungary, but Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to participate. Meanwhile, a grand jury examining whether former president Donald Trump should be charged with violations of state law for hush-money payments made to an adult-film actress in 2016 is not expected to meet again on the investigation this week.
