Former President Trump is attacking the validity of his trial following a second day of testimony. Trump said the trial is being conducted at the behest of President Biden to keep him off the campaign trail. Earlier, witness for the prosecution David Pecker said when he ran the "National Enquirer" he funneled payments through Trump's lawyer Michale Cohen to kill a story about an alleged affair with a playboy model. The NYPD is investigating claims that outside groups are bankrolling anti-Israel protests at universities in the Big Apple. The NYPD Deputy Commissioner of Operations notes the student encampments at Columbia and NYU are all using the same color tents. He suspects "professional agitators" are behind the protests centered on the Israel-Hamas war.       Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is calling on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to resign. In an interview with Ireland's RTE's Six One News, Pelosi called Netanyahu an obstacle to a two-state solution between Israel and Gaza. She said the U.S. recognizes Israel's right to protect itself but argued Netanyahu has been a block to peace in the region for years. Gas prices are dipping slightly. Triple-A puts today's national average at three-66 a gallon. That's a penny less than yesterday's average. Drivers in Mississippi are enjoying some of the cheapest prices in the U.S. at three-09 a gallon.        The NHL's Stanley Cup Playoffs feature four games tonight. In the Eastern Conference, the Washington Capitols will square off against the New York Rangers for game two of their series. Next, the Tampa Bay Lightning will look to even their series against the Florida Panthers. In the Western Conference, the Colorado Avalanche will attempt to tie their series against the Jets in Winnipeg. Lastly, the Nashville Predators will face off against the Canucks in Vancouver for game two.        The Killers, Tyler the Creator and Sturgill Simpson will headlines this year's edition of San Francisco's Outside Lands music festival. Other marquee names include 1970s and '80s disco and new wave star Grace Jones and indie band The Postal Service. The festival will be held August 9th through the 11th.
