A banking crisis. Inflation. And the possible indictment of a former president. We take a look at the latest in U.S. politics. 

The banking system is sound. That’s the word from the Biden administration as three U.S. banks require help to remain afloat. 

Fears spread to Europe, where Credit Suisse, Switzerland’s second-biggest bank, was forced to tap a financial lifeline from that nation’s central bank. 

And then there’s the potential indictment of former President Donald Trump, perhaps as early as next week. This, as multiple investigations appear to be ramping up at the federal and state level.
