LOADING ERROR LOADINGPresident Donald Trump’s authoritarian consolidation of government and society intensified on Wednesday with the suspension of comedian Jimmy Kimmel by ABC’s parent company Disney following threats from the Federal Communications Commission. The suspension of Kimmel’s late night talk show is the gravest and most clear attack on free speech rights in generations. By forcing the suspension of Kimmel, Trump is seizing control over the media. None of those countries has a constitutional right to free speech and a free press like the U.S. Trump’s effort to destroy free speech is bound to be intensely unpopular in a society where free speech is a paramount value.

LOADING ERROR LOADINGWASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration on Thursday asked the Supreme Court for an emergency order to remove Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve’s board of governors. AdvertisementThe White House campaign to unseat Cook marks an unprecedented bid to reshape the Fed board, which was designed to be largely independent from day-to-day politics. Cook, who was appointed to the Fed’s board by President Joe Biden, a Democrat, has said she won’t leave her post and won’t be “bullied” by Trump. Cook did not join the Fed’s board until 2022. The Supreme Court has distinguished the Federal Reserve from those other agencies, strongly suggesting that Trump can’t act against Fed governors without cause.

Then I notice the job listing, posted on one of the industry’s most respected voiceover talent websites, is for a political spot. As a voiceover pro, I’ve read plenty of ad campaigns or political messages where I didn’t fully believe in the message or product. As some media outlets bow to Trump, HuffPost won’t back down. These ads are designed to talk police officers into leaving their jobs to join ICE for way more money — and way less supervision. Read: Trump Wanted To Arrest 3,000 Immigrants A Day.

LOADING ERROR LOADINGWASHINGTON ― President Donald Trump’s threats to crack down on liberal groups and political speech following conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s assassination aren’t going over well with some Republican senators who believe he needs sufficient evidence to do so first. AdvertisementTrump suggested on Tuesday that media outlets are engaging in “hate speech” by being “unfair” to him and that they “maybe” should be prosecuted. Attorney General Pam Bondi also vowed to go after anyone engaging in hate speech, despite it being generally protected by the First Amendment. “That’s very different than saying the government is going to come in and go after you for that speech. “They’re talking about shutting down progressive groups just because they oppose the president,” Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) told HuffPost.

LOADING ERROR LOADINGWASHINGTON — Republicans triggered the “nuclear” option for the second time in less than a week on Wednesday, unilaterally changing the Senate’s rules to confirm 48 of President Donald Trump’s nominees with a single vote over the objections of Democrats. Some Democrats simply placed holds on nominees in opposition to Trump’s policies and his attacks against the rule of law. Republicans have gone “nuclear,” changing the Senate’s rules with only 51 votes, repeatedly over the last decade. And earlier this year, Republicans steamrolled the Senate rules to help pass their multitrillion-dollar tax cuts. “Republicans have been poking holes in the filibuster through the nuclear option for all these appointments,” Fetterman told HuffPost.

The increasing likelihood of a recession in the coming years could also accelerate employers’ plans to adopt AI and lay off workers. Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.), a potential 2028 presidential candidate, wants AI companies to pitch in to help communities affected by the strain AI puts on local infrastructure. Money from the fund would then be used to improve necessary infrastructure, fund clean energy and domestic supply chains and help workers who lost their jobs due to AI. (The plan repeatedly notes past federal efforts to help workers displaced by technology — like the Trade Adjustment Assistance program – are widely thought to have fallen short.) “And I think voters will respect it if you’re not a Johnny-come-lately to this issue.”

Alex’s story is just one of the many ways that Latines across the country are reacting to the recent Supreme Court decision. These factors include apparent race or ethnicity, speaking Spanish, speaking English with an accent, or presence in a location where undocumented immigrants are believed to gather. As a result, for some Latines, speaking their family’s language in public has become more political. Karina Perez, a Tennessee-based accountant, is a U.S. citizen, along with her parents, but is cautious about speaking Spanish when she is with her parents in her rural town. Alex was excited by liberal Susan Crawford’s win in the Wisconsin Supreme Court election, despite Elon Musk pouring millions of dollars into Crawford’s Republican opponent.

As we walked away from the soccer field that night, my son and my niece sang a little jingle about gun safety that they had learned at school. One could see our experience as evidence that gun safety education works. Certainly, teaching children safe behavior around guns makes sense, given that American children have more access to guns than children in any other developed country. Gun safety education usually falls into two categories. But research shows that even in these programs, children frequently did not retain the skills they had learned after several weeks.
