Good morning, and welcome to The Epoch Times News Brief for Wednesday, June 5, 2024. I’m Bill Thomas, and today, we have a number of important stories to get to, including President Joe Biden’s new asylum order, a billionaire’s renewed support for former President Donald Trump, and the controversy over potential prison time for the former president. Also, we’ll share with you a story about Sen. Roger Marshall’s call to halt gain-of-function research and Rep. Jim Jordan’s push against politicized prosecutions.
