News Summary at 2:36 p.m. EDT highlights a mix of U.S. political, legal, and foreign-policy updates. President Donald Trump reached the Capitol for lunch with Senate Republicans after calling off a signing ceremony for a housing bill. He said Wednesday that he would not sign the bill until Congress sends legislation requiring proof of citizenship for all voters, an abrupt change that affected GOP expectations ahead of elections. In Tokyo, the head of the U.N.’s nuclear agency suggested inspectors could visit Iranian enrichment sites as part of an interim U.S.-Iran arrangement, but an Iranian diplomat insisted visits would come only after a final deal, underscoring public disagreements. The briefing also reports that Frank Carone, a former chief of staff to New York City Mayor Eric Adams, and others were charged in a federal bribery indictment tied to a city shelter contract for migrants, with court appearances expected in Brooklyn.
