Trump to Host Artemis II Crew; Grand Jury Indicts James Comey | NTD Good Morning (April 29)

President Trump is expected to host the four astronauts who were aboard the Artemis II mission at the White House on Wednesday. White House spokeswoman Liz Huston says the president and the crew will be celebrating their unmatched achievements. That's as the Artemis II crew set a record for the farthest distance ever traveled from Earth during a 10-day lunar flyby. The Artemis III mission is expected to launch next year, and will be testing docking capabilities with the lunar landing spacecraft. The Artemis IV mission is expected to launch in 2028 and will feature two crew members descending to the lunar surface and spending a week near the South Pole of the moon.Former FBI Director James Comey is back in the spotlight after a grand jury sitting in the Eastern District of North Carolina returned with a new indictment. Comey now stands charged with threatening to kill or harm President Trump. Comey has been charged with one count of making threats against the president for a social media post he made in 2025 that was interpreted as a call for violence against President Trump. The charge carries penalties ranging from a fine to five years in federal prison. Comey deleted the post last year after receiving backlash and has maintained that he is innocent of any intentional wrongdoing in the case.The Supreme Court will hear arguments on Wednesday over whether the Trump administration can end Temporary Protected Status, a program that lets immigrants live and work in the U.S. when they can’t safely return home. The challenge comes from Syrian and Haitian immigrants who’ve been in this program for more than a decade. So far, lower courts have blocked the administration’s efforts, and the Supreme Court has kept those protections in place for now.
