BREAKING: JUSTICE GINSBURG HAS DIED, U.S. SUPREME COURT SAYS
Trump may be the last to know the news of RBG’s death. He was already speaking at his Minnesota rally when the news broke.
PENCE has been informed of Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s death, I’m told.

TRUMP, midstream in a campaign speech in Minnesota, joking about not looking at his teleprompter, still doesn’t know this consequential news, per sources.
"I even said, I'm putting Ted Cruz as one of the people for the Supreme Court, right? ... We have about 45 unbelievable people, unbelievable, the smartest, the best, the absolute creme de la creme. ...Ted's the only man I know that could get 100 votes in the Senate,” Trump mused.
“I’m sad to hear” Ruth Bader Ginsburg died, Trump tells press pool before boarding AF1 after Minnesota rally.

NEW: Biden learned of @SecDef Lloyd Austin’s hospitalization several days after the fact and received no advance notice from Pentagon officials. (Confirming Politico.)

Biden was informed by Jeff Zients and Jake Sullivan, I’m told. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Biden and @SecDef Lloyd Austin hadn’t spoken at all after the president was informed Thursday about Austin’s heath issues and hospitalization, but they just spoke this evening, I’m told.
BIDEN has full confidence in Austin, a US official says. (White House has been getting questions about whether @SecDef, who oversees largest military in world, would be fired for keeping Biden and the national security chain of command in the dark about his hospitalization.)

BREAKING: Biden admin is weighing whether to postpone or cancel Blinken’s upcoming trip to Beijing after detecting a Chinese surveillance balloon, sources tell @iainmarlow @jendeben @PeterMartin_PCM and me.
🚨Blinken’s trip to China is postponed.

@SecBlinken was to have mtgs in Beijing next week in 1st such visit by top US diplomat in 5 years. But the presence of the balloon—which the Pentagon decided not to shoot down—led officials to decide that going now would send wrong signal.
"I'm not going to answer any questions about anything else,” Biden says at White House after giving remarks about the economy. He ignored questions about China’s surveillance balloon.

Scoop: US **and Germany** will send armored vehicles to Ukraine, a significant upgrade in firepower urgently sought by @ZelenskyyUa.

US will send Bradleys; Germany to send Marders, sources tell @mcnienaber @PeterMartin_PCM & me.

Biden to speak to @OlafScholz today, I’m told.
US officials had previously balked at sending armored vehicles, saying heavier weapons would be too difficult for Ukraine to operate/maintain. But allies are moving to provide such weapons—Poland with tanks, France w/ AMX-10RC armored vehicles. Story here:
bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Germany will also provide Ukraine a Patriot battery — the 2nd headed there after the US said last month it will send one of its Patriot air-defense systems.
