Today’s Headlines: Taylor Swift's three Eras Tour shows in Vienna have been canceled after law enforcement arrested two men planning a terrorist attack on the Ernst Happel Stadium, where the concerts were to be held. The suspects were reportedly radicalized online by the Islamic State, with one being a 19-year-old Austrian found with bomb-making chemicals at his home. Missouri Representative Cori Bush lost her primary to Wesley Bell, largely due to her polarizing positions and a federal investigation into her campaign spending. In Kansas, Democrat Marvin Robinson lost his primary after controversially supporting an anti-trans bill. Additionally, Georgia's State Election Board has granted local officials new powers over election result certification, which has raised concerns about potential delays. Finally, the publication of Kevin Roberts' book "Project 2025," for which JD Vance wrote the foreword, has been delayed due to the unpopularity of its ideas and Donald Trump's dissatisfaction with their association with his campaign.
