Court orders South Africa police to end standoff with illegal miners
Africa News of Monday, 18 November 2024Source: edition.cnn.comA South African court ordered police to end a standoff with illegal miners and allow emergency workers to gain access to a shaft where hundreds are believed to be holed up. The ruling follows growing concerns about the well-being of the illegal miners – who can spend months below ground – after police cut off food and water supplies. On Friday, the South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) said in a statement it was investigating the police for restricting the miners’ essential supplies. The South African Police Service welcomed the court order but said that the ruling does not prevent the detention of illegal miners who are in good health. Three illegal miners resurfaced by Saturday afternoon, according to the police.

Yale Law School Awards 88 Hurst Horizon Scholarships for 2024–25
Now in its third year, the Hurst Horizon Scholarship Program at Yale Law School has grown rapidly to comprise 88 students across the J.D. This year, nearly 15%, or one in seven students in the current 1L class, receives full-tuition scholarships to attend Yale Law School. In the last few years, Yale Law School has launched two law school pipeline programs, the Launchpad Scholars Program and Access to Law School Program, which enable would-be lawyers to gain support and resources as they apply to the law schools of their choice. Since the launch of the Hurst Horizon program, several other schools have followed Yale Law School’s example in establishing their own need-based aid programs, including Harvard Law School, the Washington University in St. Louis School of Law, Michigan Law School, and Stanford Law School. Heading into the third year of the program, Yale Law School has a lot to celebrate — not least its wildly talented, service-oriented student body.

Trump defence pick paid accuser to save Fox News job, but denies claim
Trump defence pick paid accuser to save Fox News job, but denies claimGetty ImagesPresident-elect Donald Trump's pick to serve as defence secretary paid a woman who accused him of sexual assault to stay quiet so he would not risk losing his job at Fox News, his lawyer has told the BBC's US partner CBS News. His lawyer told CBS that Hegseth paid a confidential financial settlement as he feared he would be sacked from his job at the news network. The latest news comes just days after Trump named Hegseth as his pick to serve as defence secretary. Hegseth's lawyer told CBS News the settlement payment occurred "a couple [of] years ago" but would not specify an exact date. The allegation has not led to Trump reconsidering his pick for defence secretary, his transition team has said.

On Friday, CNN filed to move the lawsuit from the Superior Court of Wake County to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina. “Robinson’s own description of this lawsuit demonstrates that the controversyrelates to Robinson’s (erroneous) claims about CNN’s news article, not Money’s statements,” CNN’s team says. “All of Money’s statements reflect genuine affection for Robinson,” CNN’s legal team writes.

The Right-Wing Media Voices You May Hear More of Soon
I’ve spent more than four thousand hours studying right-wing media for my newsletter TheRighting over the past seven years. Though Fox News remains the largest right-wing website, as measured by Comscore, it has shrunk while Newsmax has posted increases every month except one for the past four years. I’ve also tracked subscriber counts very closely among the top right-wing podcasters, and the increases have been remarkable for a handful of conservative voices. He’s got a fast-growing top-ten right-wing podcast (just ahead of Kelly), has authored four nonfiction books, and has become a real multiplatform force with the September release of the comedy documentary Am I a Racist? And that means I’ve got to spend even more hours studying the ever-expanding world of right-wing media.

Trump confirms deportation strategy will include national emergency and military
Trump confirms deportation strategy will include national emergency and militaryBy Andrea Castillo, Los Angeles Times (TNS)WASHINGTON — President-elect Donald Trump’s plan to execute mass deportations of immigrants in the U.S. illegally will involve the military and a national emergency declaration, he confirmed Monday. !”A spokesperson for the Trump transition team didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. During his first term, Trump bypassed Congress to divert Pentagon funds to expand the border wall by declaring a national emergency. President Biden terminated the emergency order just after he took office in 2021. On the campaign trail, Trump said his strategy would rely on military troops, friendly state and local law enforcement and wartime powers.

Pope Francis Calls For Gaza Genocide Probe
Pope Francis Calls For Gaza Genocide Probe Pope urges investigation amid rising casualties and international outcry over Israel's military actionsPope Francis has stirred significant attention with his recent call for the international community to investigate allegations of genocide related to Israel's military actions against Gaza. This unprecedented statement from the papacy arrives amid devastating numbers coming from Gaza, where Palestinian health authorities report over 43,000 casualties since the onset of the conflict. For years, he had criticized the military campaign's proportionality but had refrained from explicitly endorsing the genocide label until now. Throughout his papacy, Francis has made it clear he is committed to peace, echoing calls for dialogue and resolution devoid of violence. The Vatican's official stance and reactions will shape the dialogue moving forward, potentially influencing how nations approach accusations of wartime crimes and genocide.
