+++ USA +++: US-Dieselpreis erreicht Rekordhoch

The US government, under President Donald Trump, has once again turned to the Supreme Court in a legal battle over stricter rules for mail-in voting. The administration requested the court to halt a lower court's decision, preventing the implementation of the new regulations. With less than two months remaining until the crucial midterm elections, the Trump administration asked the highest US court for a swift ruling.

In the state of North Carolina, the first mail-in voting materials were set to be dispatched as early as this Friday. The Supreme Court had previously overturned another decision concerning Trump's plans, but not due to their legality, but rather procedural reasons. Trump had hinted that construction work on the helicopter landing strip at the White House's southern lawn was being expedited to ready it for the planned visit of Chinese President Xi Jinping at the end of the month.
