SUMMARY: In Los Angeles, fans of Marilyn Monroe succeeded in preserving her legacy with the city’s decision to designate her former Brentwood home as a historic cultural monument. The Los Angeles City Council unanimously voted to save the house, thwarting the current owners’ plans to demolish it. Monroe purchased the house for $75,000 and died there in 1962. Meanwhile, in Palm Springs, a planning commission decision boosted the chances of keeping the 26-foot “Forever Marilyn” statue, despite opposition from some residents. The statue, depicting Monroe’s iconic scene from “The Seven Year Itch,” will be reconsidered by the Palm Springs City Council.

SUMMARY: The Supreme Court is concluding its term unusually late, meeting into early July, with a highly anticipated decision pending. The case concerns whether former President Donald Trump is immune from prosecution related to the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot. This case was argued on April 25, and its delayed resolution impacts the potential for Trump to stand trial before the November election. The timing of the court’s decision is crucial, as the delay means Trump is unlikely to face trial before the election, regardless of the ruling’s outcome. (© 2024 The Associated Press.
