I will not say that we don’t have a problem with police killing Black men. We do. But we have another problem. And it’s killing a lot more Black men than white cops do. Start by paying attention to recent headlines regarding the violent murders of Black men—and some Black women—across the country. Here are just a few headlines this past month in Chicago alone: “49 Shot, 10 Killed in ‘Alarming’ Memorial Day Weekend Violence,” read the headline from WTTW....

Socializing, multitasking, going mobile, making a personal statement: the ways teens use technology are influencing industries from telecom to electronics to software. Microsoft, IBM, Sony, Philips, Nokia and other firms spend more time than ever keeping tabs on such behaviors. Already kids have driven trends like text messaging, instant messaging, blogging and gaming, and have informed the more subtle–but arguably more important–peer-to-peer technology, a type of collaborative computing (such as MP3 file sharing)....

Such as: MORE: NCAA shows progress in eligibility rulings The conflation of the university’s lengthy infractions case involving academic offerings by its African and Afro-American Studies department with this extra benefits case was bound to occur, because the AFAM scandal wasn’t resolved to the satisfaction of many — rather, any — of UNC’s athletic rivals. And it wasn’t surprising the NCAA would come in for some fair criticism regarding the economic restrictions on its student-athletes, particularly the continuing prohibition against said players receiving compensation for their name, image and likeness....

Yeah, that’s probably oversimplifying things. The good news? Some fixes are simple! On Sunday night in Atlanta, Phillies runner Alec Bohm failed to touch home plate on his ninth-inning slide. But was called safe on the field and replay officials allowed the call to stand. It was the deciding run a 7-6 win for the Phillies. MORE: Braves’ Ronald Acuña Jr. put on absolute show vs. Phillies Last Thursday, Mets batter Michael Conforto clearly stuck his heavily-armored elbow into the strike zone and was nicked by a pitch from Miami right-hander Anthony Bass in the bottom of the ninth inning....

Last week 34 non-Scientologists from the U.S. movie industry lambasted the Germans in a full-page advertisement in the International Herald Tribune. Addressed to Chancellor Helmut Kohl, the open letter claimed that Scientologists suffer “organized persecution” in Germany. “In the 1930s, it was the Jews,” said the ad. “Today it is the Scientologists.” Many Germans were outraged by the comparison to the Holocaust. “They don’t know anything about Germany, and they don’t want to, either,” said Kohl....

Two months later, in August 2016, I appeared on stage with Donald Trump, the presidential candidate for the Republican Party, at a rally in Mississippi. After this, the mainstream media reverted to type, with various commentators deciding that they had been right about me all along. Clearly, they thought, I was a little bit bonkers if I believed that this brash New York businessman had a chance of making it to the White House....

Under the guidance of White House counsel Pat Cipillone, a protege of Attorney General William Barr and, like Trump, a native New Yorker, the White House has worked almost seamlessly with McConnell in getting nearly 200 conservative judges appointed to the federal bench, including two Supreme Court Justices. Well aware that the 87-year-old Ginsburg was suffering from pancreatic cancer, Trump and McConnell knew for months that the president might well have a chance to nominate her replacement....

During the seizure of the Florida residence, the FBI is said to have recovered handwritten notes, photos and top-secret materials the former president should have turned over to authorities when leaving the White House. According to a story in Rolling Stone, the federal investigators’ inventory contained items related to Macron listed as “info re: President of France.” Newsweek could not verify the existence of the intelligence briefings on the French president, but has contacted the FBI for comment on the documents seized from Mar-a-Lago....

Forrister covered his hood and truck bed with “Trump for President” and added “Make America Great Again” on the side — all with NASCAR’s approval.

“I don’t know how they don’t indict the dude, but maybe again he’ll get away with it,” Stern said on his SiriusXM radio show. “I think there’s a law in this country, and then there’s no laws for Donald Trump.” During the broadcast, the popular host discussed the FBI’s August raid of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, where more than 100 classified documents were reportedly recovered. This month, a federal judge handed Trump a victory by approving his request to have a special master assigned to review the records seized during the raid....

The poll, which was conducted by Morning Consult, found the former vice president ahead with people aged 65 and above in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. According to the poll, Biden’s largest lead comes in among seniors in Michigan, as 55 percent said they’d vote for him compared to 42 percent who said they’d vote for Trump. In Pennsylvania, the poll found Biden holding a nine-point lead over Trump among seniors, as 52 percent of them sided with him while 43 percent chose Trump as their preferred candidate....

President Trump’s long record of being a champion of Jewish Americans and the Jewish state of Israel is unparalleled. President Trump fulfilled a key campaign promise in 2018, when he moved the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem and recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. While many hysterical “analysts” predicted a wave of violence in response to President Trump keeping his word to the Jewish people and Israel, no such violence took place....

The firebrand conservative figure hit out at Prince Harry on Twitter in a quote tweet where he referred to a Daily Caller article with the headline “Prince Harry says America’s First Amendment is ‘bonkers.’” On Monday night, he posted: “I can think of at least 1776 reasons why he’s wrong but at least he has the freedom here to make stupid takes.” His tweet referred to comments made by the controversial royal during his time on the Armchair Expert podcast where he said the constitutional right to free speech was “a huge subject and one which I don’t understand....

In addition to those two pardons, the president also issued pardons for another 14 people, and commuted all or part of the sentence of 5 others. “At the time that Mr. Papadopoulos allegedly made the false statements, he was not represented by counsel, and, after he was arrested, Mr. Papadopoulos gave additional information on his prior statements to the Special Counsel. Today’s pardon helps correct the wrong that Mueller’s team inflicted on so many people,” writes White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany in a statement announcing the pardons....

Though tensions between the U.S. and Iran have eased in recent weeks, this attack—plus Trump’s initial response—has raised fears that the two countries are sliding back towards conflict. This weekend, U.S. lawmakers warned that Trump should not allow the U.S. to become engaged in a costly war in the Persian Gulf. Tensions between the U.S. and Iran have been high for several months as a result of Trump’s withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, a....

Jackson, who now represents Texas’ 13th congressional district, praised the former president’s health during an appearance on Newsmax on Monday and pointed to the fact that Trump does not smoke or drink. Newsmax host Greg Kelly pointed out that Jackson was well-known for praising Trump’s health when he served as White House physician and asked the congressman to describe his condition. “He’s in great health,” Jackson said. “And people wonder why he’s so healthy because, you know, he famously doesn’t have a really great diet and he doesn’t exercise much other than playing golf and whatnot....

But the insurrection has left the former president more politically diminished than ever, putting into question his future role in the Republican Party and his ability to run for office again in 2024—a scenario that some of his former advisers are rooting for and Trump himself hasn’t ruled out. In the wake of January 6, several polls showed Trump’s approval rating dropping roughly 10 points. He left office with his worst approval rating ever, as just 34 percent of Americans supported the job he was doing as commander-in-chief....

But it is neither historic nor unprecedented, as both his critics and supporters claim it is. If re-elected, Trump would appoint a third justice to the Supreme Court and even more federal judges, adding to his conservative influence on the federal judiciary for generations. “He is steering the courts in a more conservative direction that will last for decades,” said Chris Rasmussen, Associate Professor of History at Fairleigh Dickinson University....
