Go to shopify.com/CNN for a

$1 per month trial. Hey

0:08

there from CNN, I'm Krista Beaux with the 5

0:10

Things You Need to Know for Wednesday, May 8th.

0:13

A Georgia appeals court says it will

0:16

consider an effort by Donald Trump and

0:18

his co-defendants to disqualify Fulton County DA

0:20

Fonny Willis from the state's election subversion

0:22

case. Remember, the defendants claim

0:24

that Willis financially benefited from her romantic

0:26

relationship with the former lead prosecutor Nathan

0:29

Wade, a claim Willis denies. Back in

0:31

March, the judge on the case found

0:33

there wasn't enough evidence to prove that,

0:35

but to avoid any conflicts of interest,

0:37

Wade had to resign for Willis to

0:40

stay on the case. Now,

0:42

a court of appeals is going to take another

0:44

look, a move Trump's lawyers said they look forward

0:46

to and Willis's office declined to comment on. There

0:49

is another delay in another trial Trump faces

0:51

that makes it more likely that the criminal

0:53

hush money trial in New York will be

0:56

the only one the former president will face

0:58

before November's election. Yesterday, a

1:00

federal judge in Florida indefinitely postponed

1:02

Trump's trial on mishandling classified documents

1:04

at his Mar-a-Lago estate. An

1:07

adult film star Stormy Daniels will continue to

1:09

be cross-examined tomorrow in his New York hush

1:11

money trial. The

1:13

Biden administration is rushing to complete

1:15

a report about whether Israel violated

1:18

international humanitarian law while using U.S.

1:20

weaponry during its war in Gaza.

1:23

It's due before Congress today, but

1:25

sources on Capitol Hill tell CNN

1:27

lawmakers expect it'll be slightly delayed.

1:29

The report has caused deep divisions

1:31

inside the State Department because some

1:33

offices have expressed doubt over Israel's

1:36

assurances they've acted lawfully. The

1:38

report would come at a pivotal moment in

1:40

the war, as CNN's Fes Jamil explains. So,

1:43

Krista, a ceasefire and hostage release

1:45

agreement between Israel and Hamas is

1:47

stalling right now, and Israel

1:49

appears to be on the edge of a

1:52

full-scale ground invasion in Rafa. A

1:54

U.S. official is saying that the Biden administration

1:56

has paused a shipment of bombs to Israel

1:58

over concerning the U.S. that the country might

2:01

use them in Rafah. Israel has

2:03

said its goals there are to get

2:05

the hostages back and quote, eliminate Hamas

2:07

for its terror attack on October 7th.

2:10

But the US and other countries have

2:12

made clear they're concerned about the civilian

2:14

casualties such an operation would bring. Numerous

2:18

women have shared stories on social

2:20

media of surprised pregnancies while taking

2:22

medications approved for weight loss like

2:25

Ozempic and Longaro. And there

2:27

are still a lot of unknowns about

2:29

so-called Ozempic babies. San Anzamik

2:31

Tarel explains. So Christa scientists

2:33

say there are a couple reasons potentially

2:35

behind this. One is that weight loss

2:37

is known to potentially help with fertility

2:40

especially if someone is having abnormal menstrual

2:42

cycles because of a condition known as

2:44

PCOS or other reasons. And

2:46

a second thing to be aware of

2:48

is that terzepatide based drugs those are

2:50

Mount Jaro and Zepbond actually have a

2:52

warning that they may make oral birth

2:55

control less effective. Now these drugs haven't

2:57

been studied in pregnancy but studies in

2:59

animals suggest there is reason to be

3:01

cautious. So doctors recommend stopping the

3:03

drugs two months before trying to conceive

3:05

or immediately if you become pregnant. FTX

3:09

says nearly all of its investors could

3:11

get all their money back from the

3:14

failed crypto exchange with interest. In a

3:16

proposed reorganization plan unveiled yesterday the company

3:18

said it has recovered enough assets to

3:20

pay most of its creditors back in

3:22

full. The U.S. court needs to

3:24

approve the plan which FTX says

3:26

would resolve disputes with government and

3:29

private stakeholders. The once flying

3:31

high exchange imploded in November 2022 sending

3:34

shockwaves through the crypto world after

3:36

depositors raced to withdraw their cash.

3:38

Its former CEO is now serving 25

3:40

years in prison for fraud among other

3:43

charges. Coming

3:45

up Disneyland gets the green light to expand.

4:24

major hurdle for a company to

4:26

become a global leader in retail sales. The company is now

4:29

facing a hurdle for a colossal expansion

4:31

of its theme parks in California. Last

4:34

night, the Anaheim City Council unanimously

4:36

gave final approval to rezone much

4:38

of the property, paving the way

4:40

for a multi-decade project that'll expand

4:42

both Disneyland and Disney California Adventure.

4:45

A theme park consultant CNN spoke to says

4:47

over the next 20 years, the project could

4:49

allow Disneyland Resort to go from an estimated

4:51

25 to 40

4:53

million visits annually. Alright,

4:56
