President Donald Trump arrived in Beijing on Wednesday for a high-stakes summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping, but was notably not greeted by Jinping at the airport — a detail critics characterized as a diplomatic snub.

Instead of a presidential welcome, Trump was met by U.S. Ambassador to China David Perdue, Jinping's vice president Han Zheng, China's Ambassador to Washington Xie Feng, and Executive Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs Ma Zhaoxu.

Members of Congress could have key medical information exposed as a result of a breach, Politico reported on Wednesday.

"Lawmakers on Capitol Hill were informed this week of a data breach involving the congressional medical office that may have compromised personal information — including their prescription history," said the report. "The intrusions occurred March 1 and 3 and targeted RXNT, a medical software provider used by the Office of the Attending Physician to manage care for members of Congress, according to letters sent this week to affected individuals that were reviewed by POLITICO."

One of the largest political action committees aligned with House Republicans is backing a progressive Democrat in California running to unseat Rep. David Valadao (R-CA), a move that one political expert described as a "confession," according to a new report.

The Congressional Leadership Fund recently sent out mailers supporting progressive Democrat Randy Villegas, a college professor, as he competes against Democratic Assemblymember Jasmeet Bains in California's 22nd District, The Sacramento Bee reported. Some experts suggested that the move is intended to help Villegas win the race against Bains by turning moderate voters away from Democrats and toward Republicans.

The state of Florida's deal for a Trump presidential library in Miami was effectively an illegal gift in violation of the U.S. Constitution, according to a lawsuit filed on Wednesday.

Trump unveiled plans for his library at the end of March. The structure, which is envisioned as a high-rise skyscraper with a luxury hotel built into it, will sit on land taken from Miami Dade College, one of the most heavily Hispanic higher education institutions in the United States. The land is valued at $67 million, but was sold off for the Trump library for just $10.

A popular white livestreamer who goes by the name "Chud the Builder" said that he shot a Black man after an altercation over racial slurs.

Senior Director for Counterterrorism Sebastian Gorka disclosed that President Donald Trump has left orders for Vice President JD Vance in a letter stored in the Resolute Desk should something happen to Trump during his China visit.

During a Pod Force One podcast interview, host Miranda Devine asked Gorka about security concerns, including the possibility of China poisoning Trump or causing him to fall ill. Gorka confidently asserted that Trump is safe, arguing that world leaders seek to reconcile with him and understand the consequences of harming him.

The weaponization of the FBI under the Trump administration and Director Kash Patel is entering territory America has never seen before, MS NOW justice correspondent Ken Dilanian told anchor Katy Tur on Wednesday.

This comes after bombshell allegations from Patel's acting predecessor, Brian Driscoll, that Patel is "padding" FBI statistics to make his leadership look more effective than it actually is.
