Today’s notice: Trump zeroes in on a new city. Independent, do you know what that mean? The great House Freedom Caucus exodus. And: Drama at the DNC’s summer meeting.

THE LATEST

Democrats under pressure. Dueling resolutions will come up for a vote at the DNC’s summer meeting this week wading into one of the most politically fraught issues in the Democratic Party: Israel’s war in Gaza.

The proposal: Florida’s 26-year-old DNC member Allison Minnerly’s resolution calls for an arms embargo and suspension of military aid to Israel — a clear escalation from the DNC’s previous positions.

The counter: DNC Chair Ken Martin offered a pared-back resolution calling for a ceasefire in the conflict, more in line with what the party has put out before.
