Former President Trump's criminal hush money trial resumes today in New York. Former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker is expected to take the stand again today. Prosecutors say he had an arrangement to protect Trump from any potentially harmful stories, especially in the run-up to the 2016 election.       Tensions remain high as protesters on a growing number of college campuses continue to call attention to the crisis in the Middle East. Demonstrators at Columbia University say they want the Ivy League school to divest from companies they say profit from Israel's violations of international law and Palestinian rights. Classes there were held virtually yesterday, but it's not a permanent solution to de-escalation as many Jewish students say they no longer feel safe.       The Supreme Court will hear arguments in two big cases today. The first involves a man from El Salvador who was denied a visa to be with his wife, an American citizen, in the U.S. He eventually learned he was rejected because an official saw his tattoos and suspected he might have a criminal background. The other case involves whether the National Labor Relations Board can order employers to rehire workers they say were fired without just cause.       Robert F. Kennedy Junior wants the entire U.S. budget available on blockchain if elected. The Independent presidential candidate said during a rally in Michigan on Sunday that it would allow any American to look at the budget any time. The blockchain is a ledger of transactions that is typically associated with cryptocurrency.       A tourist in Indonesia is dead after falling into an active volcano while taking photos on its edge. A Chinese woman was on a guided tour of the volcano park when she fell into the crater, according to international news sites. The 31-year-old and her husband had climbed to the top to catch the sunrise.        Gas prices are down just a bit. Triple-A puts today's national average at three-66 a gallon. That's a penny off yesterday's average. Drivers in California are paying the highest by far at five dollars and 43 cents.
