Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, extended the invitation to Biden over the weekend, but the White House has not said whether the president would accept it. The invitation arrived as Israelis continued to learn more about the Hamas attacks.

But it could also tie Biden and the U.S. to the increasing bloodshed in Gaza. Israel’s continued airstrikes, which they say have killed at least six Hamas senior leaders so far, have forced hundreds of thousands of Gazans from their homes and deepened the humanitarian crisis there. Officials in Gaza said that 2,808 people had been killed.

The ruling specifically restricts Trump from making public statements that attack witnesses, prosecutors or court staff involved in the case. Judge Chutkan left Trump free to disparage the Justice Department, President Biden and apparently even herself. However, she said, Trump’s freedom of speech rights do not permit him “to launch a pre-trial smear campaign” against those involved in the trial. “No other defendant would be allowed to do so, and I’m not going to allow it in this case,” she said.

The story, set in 2019, follows a Nigerian professor of photography at a prestigious Boston college and his wife, and it mostly eschews plot. Instead, it considers the ebb and flow of family and friendships, and the microaggressions and minor conflicts of daily life. As with Cole’s previous work, readers might notice similarities between his characters and his own life.

A small percentage of it comes from well-managed fisheries in Alaska, but most of it is imported farmed fish raised in the ocean in open net-pens, which can wreak havoc on the wild fish population and pollute the environment. As an alternative, several companies have started land-based salmon farms, which can be cleaner and more ecologically responsible. Experts say that they are likely the future of the industry.
