The book of Vayikra ends with hard warnings against Israel should they walk with God with indifference. He too will be indifferent to them and the world will feel as though it is turning on them. Subsequently there is an intriguing mitzvah presented that deals with what's called "Temura" or "exchange". Prohibiting one from attempting to exchange an animal that was given to God for an offering with a different animal whether it be better or worse. In this episode we examine the problem with that and how fear and the need for control underlies it, as well as why it is related to the issue of indifference.

Chris Nesi of The New York Post reports: “The Federal Bureau of Investigation is looking into a series of mysterious drone sightings over Central New Jersey in recent weeks, not far from President-elect Donald Trump's Bedminster golf course. Federal aviation officials have shut down the airspace over the private club as well as a nearby army facility after several residents reported seeing suspicious drones flying overhead in the past two weeks.” You can read the full article here: https://nypost.com/2024/12/03/us-news/suspicious-drone-activity-near-trumps-nj-golf-course-prompts-fbi-investigation-faa-airspace-restrictions/ 4:40pm- On Tuesday night, ballot counting concluded in California's 13th Congressional District with Democrat Adam Gray defeating current Congressman John Duarte (R-CA).

Coimisiún na Meán has published the finalised Online Safety Code. The Code sets binding rules applying to video-sharing platforms who have their EU headquarters in Ireland. The general obligations contained in the Code will apply from next month and platforms will have an implementation period for certain detailed provisions, which require IT build, to come into compliance. Coimisiún na Meán will take a supervisory approach to enforcing the Code, ensuring that platforms implement appropriate systems to comply with the provisions of the Code The Code introduces obligations on video-sharing platforms to protect people, especially children, from harmful video and associated content, including: Prohibiting the uploading or sharing of harmful content on their services including cyberbullying, promoting self-harm or suicide and promoting eating or feeding disorders as well as incitement to hatred or violence, terrorism, child sex abuse material, racism and xenophobia. Using age assurance to prevent children from encountering pornography or gratuitous violence online and having age verification measures in place as appropriate. Providing parental controls for content which may impair the physical, mental, or moral development of children under 16. These platforms will also have to ensure that they have ways for people to report content that breaks the rules, and act on those reports in line with their Terms and Conditions. The development of the Code was informed by an initial call for inputs in summer 2023, followed by a full public consultation from December 2023 to February 2024, which received nearly 1400 responses. Coimisiún na Meán's Youth Advisory Committee was also consulted on the development of the Code. The Code was then notified to the European Commission under the Technical Regulations Information System (TRIS) Directive process to ensure alignment with the EU Digital Services Act. The Code is part of Coimisiún na Meán's overall Online Safety Framework. This Framework makes digital services accountable for how they protect users from harm online. The updated Code, combined with the other parts of the Online Safety Framework, will deliver on the objectives of the Online Safety and Media Regulation Act, leading to safer online experiences for people across Ireland. The overall Online Safety Framework gives Coimisiún na Meán the tools to address the root causes of harm online, including the availability of illegal content, the harmful impacts of recommender systems, and inadequate protections for children on social media services. The Online Safety Commissioner, Niamh Hodnett, said: "The adoption of the Online Safety Code brings an end to the era of social media self-regulation. The Code sets binding rules for video-sharing platforms to follow in order to reduce the harm they can cause to users. We will work to make sure that people know their rights when they go online and we will hold the platforms to account and take action when platforms don't live up to their obligations." Executive Chairperson of Coimisiún na Meán, Jeremy Godfrey said: "With the adoption of the Online Safety Code, all the elements of our Online Safety Framework are now in place. Our focus now is on fully implementing the Framework and driving positive changes in peoples' lives online. Our message to people is clear: if you come across something you think is illegal or against a platform's own rules for what they allow, you should report it directly to the platform. Our Contact Centre is available to provide advice and guidance to people if they need help." Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media, Catherine Martin TD commented: "I welcome Coimisiún na Meán's adoption of its first Online Safety Code. Building upon the foundation set out in the Online Safety and Media Regulation Act 2022, this code is a major step forward in online safety. It introduces real accountability for online video sharing platforms and requires them to...

Alliance Defending Freedom challenges a law banning abortion pill reversal, which would have prevented Mackenna Greene from saving her baby. When Mackenna Greene took the abortion pill to end the life of her unborn daughter, she immediately knew she had made the wrong choice. Greene said she googled her options and found Chelsea Mynyk, a nurse-midwife at the life-affirming Catholic medical center Bella Health and Wellness in Englewood, Colorado. Mynyk prescribes abortion pill reversal medication to women who regret starting a chemical abortion. "I'm the luckiest girl alive to be looking at this girl's face," Greene said. "And thank goodness that the reversal was successful."

This Day in Legal History: King Tut's Tomb OpenedOn this day in legal history, February 16, 1923, the opening of King Tutankhamun's tomb by Howard Carter not only captivated the world with its historical and archaeological significance but also set the stage for a series of legal debates and regulations concerning the protection of cultural heritage. This event underscored the importance of laws governing archaeological excavations, the ownership of antiquities, and the ethical considerations of cultural patrimony. The discovery highlighted the legal complexities surrounding the removal of artifacts from their country of origin and the international trade in antiquities, which often involves issues of colonial history and national sovereignty.The opening of King Tutankhamun's tomb brought to light the need for comprehensive legal frameworks to protect ancient sites and artifacts from looting and illegal trafficking. It prompted countries around the world to reassess and strengthen their laws on cultural heritage protection. This event also played a significant role in the development of conventions and treaties aimed at the preservation and return of cultural properties to their rightful owners or countries, influencing key legal instruments such as the 1970 UNESCO Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export, and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property.Furthermore, the fascination with Tutankhamun's tomb raised ethical questions about the treatment of human remains and the respect due to ancient cultures, contributing to the evolution of ethical standards in archaeology and museology. The legal implications of Carter's discovery continue to resonate in contemporary debates over the repatriation of cultural artifacts and the responsibility of museums and collectors to ensure that their collections are ethically acquired and legally compliant.In essence, the opening of King Tutankhamun's tomb on this day in 1923 not only unveiled the treasures of ancient Egypt but also catalyzed significant legal and ethical advancements in the stewardship of cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder of the ongoing challenges and responsibilities faced by the international community in safeguarding the legacies of our shared human history.The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) has requested the U.S. Supreme Court to proceed with a $2.46 billion settlement for abuse claims, despite a pending review by the court on a related legal issue from the Purdue Pharma bankruptcy case. A group of 144 abuse victims is challenging the settlement, arguing it unjustly prevents them from suing non-bankrupt entities like churches and insurers associated with the Boy Scouts. The Supreme Court's decision in the Purdue Pharma case, which involves the potential immunity of the Sackler family for opioid-related lawsuits in exchange for a settlement, could influence the BSA's situation. The BSA contends that halting their settlement, already in effect and distributing funds to victims, would severely disrupt their operations and mission. The organization emerged from bankruptcy in April 2023, with the settlement aiming to compensate abuse victims with amounts ranging from $3,500 to $2.7 million. The BSA's plea emphasizes the distinct nature of their case compared to Purdue Pharma's and warns against the detrimental effects of unwinding the settlement plan.Boy Scouts org urges Supreme Court not to stop $2.4 bln abuse settlement | ReutersOver the past nine months, Saudi Arabia has attracted at least 30 multinational law firms, marking a significant influx into a new legal market, thanks to the kingdom's decision to allow foreign law firms to operate independently without local partners. This shift represents a major opportunity in a wealthy, oil-rich nation, especially as it coincides with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's efforts to modernize the economy and diversify beyond oil, through the Vision 2030 plan supported by a $700 billion sovereign wealth fund. The fund has initiated numerous large-scale infrastructure projects, offering unique legal challenges and opportunities, from city-building to drafting complex international contracts. However, the allure of this burgeoning market is tempered by concerns over Saudi Arabia's human rights record, complicating recruitment efforts for firms based in countries with more progressive stances on issues such as women's rights and LGBTQ+ rights. Despite these challenges, law firms are mandated to staff their offices with at least 70% Saudi nationals, creating a high demand for local legal talent and a competitive hiring environment. Firms must navigate the nuances of Islamic Law (Sharia), with some opting to draft documents in English or US law to circumvent local legal complexities, though this approach is not without its pitfalls. The legal landscape in Saudi Arabia is rapidly evolving to align more closely with international standards, particularly in areas like commercial arbitration. This rapid development offers a promising future for ambitious Saudi lawyers and presents foreign law firms with the task of integrating into a legal system that is swiftly adapting to meet global benchmarks, all while navigating the ethical considerations of operating within a jurisdiction with notable human rights concerns.Saudi Arabia Lures Big Law Firms to Lucrative New Legal MarketA New York state judge is poised to make a significant ruling in a $370 million civil fraud case against former U.S. President Donald Trump, accused of exaggerating his net worth to secure favorable loan terms from bankers. This lawsuit, initiated by New York Attorney General Letitia James, alleges Trump and his business operations inflated his worth by up to $3.6 billion annually over a decade, a claim Trump refutes as a political attack. The potential consequences for Trump include not just a hefty financial penalty but also a permanent ban from New York's real estate sector, severely restricting his business activities within the state. Additionally, James seeks to impose a five-year ban on Trump's adult sons, Don Jr. and Eric, who are co-defendants.In September, Justice Arthur Engoron found Trump guilty of fraud, mandating a partial dissolution of his business empire, the full impact of which remains uncertain as Trump appeals the decision. The forthcoming ruling, expected after a tumultuous three-month trial, could significantly impact Trump's business dealings and his political ambitions, including his campaign for the Republican nomination to contest against President Joe Biden.Throughout the trial, Trump's testimony acknowledged some inaccuracies in property valuations but shifted responsibility to the banks for their due diligence. He leveraged court appearances for political momentum, vehemently criticizing his adversaries for allegedly using the legal system against him. Despite these legal entanglements, including four criminal indictments related to various charges from hush money payments to mishandling classified documents and attempts to overturn the 2020 election results, Trump maintains his innocence and continues his bid for the Republican nomination.Judge set to rule in Trump's $370 million civil fraud case | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Frédéric Chopin and brought to us thanks to Aya Higuchi, a teacher of piano at the University of Michigan.Frédéric Chopin, born in 1810 in Poland, is one of the most revered composers and pianists of the Romantic era, celebrated for his profound influence on the world of music, particularly piano composition. Chopin's unique style combines delicate melody with intricate technical demands, making his works a staple of the pianistic repertoire. Among his extensive catalog, the Nocturnes hold a special place, showcasing his innovative approach to the piano as a solo instrument capable of expressing a wide range of emotions and colors.The Nocturne in E-flat major, Op. 9, No. 2, is one of Chopin's most famous pieces, epitomizing the essence of the Nocturne form— a musical composition that is suggestive of the night. Composed in 1830-1831, this piece is celebrated for its lyrical melody, expressive depth, and serene character. The Nocturne Op. 9, No. 2, is marked by a graceful, singing melody in the right hand, over a flowing accompaniment in the left, creating a harmonious and dreamlike atmosphere.This work exemplifies Chopin's masterful use of the piano to convey emotion, with its subtle nuances, delicate phrasing, and dynamic contrasts. It is a piece that demands both technical precision and emotional sensitivity from the performer, balancing the expressive melody with the underlying accompaniment to create a cohesive and moving musical experience.Chopin's Nocturne Op. 9, No. 2, has become a beloved piece in the classical music repertoire, frequently performed in concert halls and recorded by countless artists. Its enduring popularity is a testament to Chopin's genius in crafting music that speaks directly to the human spirit, transcending time and cultural boundaries.Through pieces like the Nocturne Op. 9, No. 2, Chopin has left an indelible mark on the world of music, continuing to inspire both performers and listeners with his poetic expressiveness and innovative piano technique. This Nocturne, with its beautiful melodies and emotional depth, remains a shining example of Chopin's ability to transform the piano into a voice that speaks of the beauty and complexity of the human experience.Without further ado, Chopin's Nocturne opus 9 number 2.  Get full access to Minimum Competence - Daily Legal News Podcast at www.minimumcomp.com/subscribe

Dom welcomes in Representative Amen Brown back onto the Dom Giordano Program to discuss the importance of a few bills that have recently passed in Philadelphia and Pennsylvania. First, Rep. Brown offers his thoughts on Philadelphia City Council's Anthony Phillips and his bill that he recently got passed that bans the wearing of ski masks in public places, explaining that wearing these face masks only invites police questioning after a string of crimes with perpetrators using them to hide their identities. Then, Amen offers his thoughts on PA Senate Bill 140, a new bill passed in State Senate that limits Krasner's prosecutorial power, disallowing him the ability to prosecute crimes within 500 yards of a SEPTA station. Also, Brown explains why he voted in favor of Taylor Swift, explaining he was fearful of becoming the next topic of one of her songs. (Photo by Getty Images)

Questions about a public school library that wants to remove the Bible because of a state law prohibiting “pornographic or indecent material,” what to tell children who ask if art pieces that contain nude figures are inappropriate, and whether it's inappropriate to pray in the shower or bathroom. What argument should I make against a school library that claims a state law that prohibits “pornographic or indecent material” in public schools should be applied to the Bible because it contains descriptions of incest, prostitution, rape, and infanticide? What should I tell my children when they ask if art pieces that contain nude figures are inappropriate? Is it inappropriate to pray when you're in the shower or bathroom?

Tension between the U.S. and China has spilled into the U.S. real estate market, with specific concern about the ownership of American farmland. There's new legislation by two House members that would prohibit the purchase of farmland by Chinese citizens. There's also an increasing number of states that are approving or considering similar limits or bans, including one that's creating a lot of controversy right now in Texas.   Hi, I'm Kathy Fettke and this is Real Estate News for Investors. If you like our podcast, please subscribe and leave us a review.   As a headline in Fortune warns: “Forget the Chinese balloon – selling farmland to foreign nationals is the real worry.” You've probably been following the balloon incident. It was first spotted by a cattle rancher in Washington state, although defense officials said the next day that they were tracking what they suspected was a Chinese spy balloon. (1)   Chinese Surveillance Balloon Shot Down   U.S. officials allowed it to float all the way across the U.S. before it was shot down with a missile off the coast of South Carolina. They reportedly felt it wasn't a threat as it made its way over the American heartland, but they also wanted to prevent injuries as the mammoth balloon and its equipment fell to earth.   Officials say the balloon created a huge debris field from what they are estimating was a 200 foot tall balloon carrying surveillance equipment. One article by CBS News described the equipment as the size of two or three school buses. The article cites intelligence officials who believe the balloon was operated by the People's Liberation Army which is the main military arm of the Chinese Communist Party. (2) China initially claimed the balloon was being used to monitor the weather and accused the U.S. of overreacting to its presence.   Bill to Ban China-Owned Farmland   Legislation that would ban the purchase of farmland by individuals or entities linked to the Chinese government was introduced shortly after this incident. It's called: “Prohibition of Agricultural Land for the People's Republic of China Act,” introduced by Congresswoman Cathy McMorris and Congressman Dan Newhouse, both Republicans from Washington state.   McMorris said on her website: “Agriculture is Eastern Washington's number one industry. We simply cannot allow companies from China to lock down our resources and undermine our farmers and ranchers' ability to feed the world.” She says: “Prohibiting the Chinese Communist Party from purchasing farmland in the United States is a no-brainer.” (3)   McMorris says that six states have already enacted laws prohibiting the foreign ownership of farmland, including Hawaii, Iowa, Minnesota, Mississippi, North Dakota, and Oklahoma. The New York Times reports that 11 states are considering legislation restricting the ownership of farmland or real estate in general by foreign entities. That information comes from the National Conference of State Legislatures. (4)   Texas Proposal to Ban China-Owned Real Estate   Texas is one of the states wrestling with that issue right now. The proposed legislation would expand on a bill passed a few years ago called the Lone Star Infrastructure Protection Act. That bill was a response to the purchase of 140,000 acres by a Chinese billionaire to build a wind farm close to a U.S. Air Force Base. There was concern that the turbines could be used to spy on U.S. military operations, or that the generation of electricity of the wind farm could be withheld and then used for ransom at some point. (5)   Now, with the balloon issue making headlines, a Texas state senator is proposing an expanded version of that law that would ban the purchase of land, homes or any kind of real estate by any Chinese company or individual. The issue is generating controversy because the legislation also targets people who are simply Chinese immigrants.   Texas Governor Greg Abbott reportedly plans to sign the bill if it passes. It would “not” impact any Chinese immigrants who already own property.   There have been protests by people who say the bill is discriminatory. The American Civil Liberties Union and legal scholars are tracking it, and many don't believe it will hold up, legally. One University of Texas law professor says the bill would “raise a host of constitutional issues.”   Protecting the Future of U.S. Farmland   As for how much farmland is already owned by Chinese entities, government data shows that ownership has been growing slowly over recent years. At the end of 2020, Chinese owners controlled about 350,000 acres of farmland, which isn't a huge amount. It's only about 1% of the 3% of farmland owned by all foreign entities and individuals. (6)   The big concern is how to safeguard our farmland for the future. If the House bill becomes law, it would prohibit “the purchase of public or private agricultural real estate located in the United States by nationals of the People's Republic of China.” (7)   You can read more about this issue by following links in the show notes at newsforinvestors.com.

In a filing on Tuesday, the administration acknowledged to the Supreme Court that the end of Title 42 will likely lead to "disruption and a temporary increase in unlawful border crossings" but asked the court to reject efforts by a group of conservative-leaning states to keep Title 42 in place. Migrants have been denied requests to seek asylum under U.S. and international law 2.5 million times since March 2020 on grounds of preventing the spread of COVID-19 under a public-health rule called Title 42. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/texas-gov-abbott-polar-vortex-threatens-migrants-bidens-border-disaster Texas Gov. Abbott warns polar vortex threatens migrants due to Biden’s border ‘disaster’ Texas Gov. Greg Abbott told President Joe Biden on Tuesday that his "disaster" immigration policy is putting lives at risk as a polar vortex expected this week will create bitter conditions for the thousands of illegal immigrants who continue to trek into the U.S. "With cold temperatures gripping Texas, your inaction to secure the southern border is putting the lives of migrants at risk, particularly in the City of El Paso," the Republican governor told Biden in a letter. "Your policies will leave many people in the bitter, dangerous cold as a polar vortex moves into Texas." "This terrible crisis for border communities in Texas is a catastrophe of your own making," Abbott wrote. The governor said Biden has failed in his constitutional duty to protect the border, which disproportionately impacts Texas. Abbott warned that the situation would only get worse if the Title 42 policy ends this week. That pandemic-era policy allows border agents to turn migrants away at the border, and ending it could lead to a surge of migrants at the southern border just as Texas faces some of its coldest temperatures. The Title 42 policy was set to expire Wednesday, but an appeal is being heard by the Supreme Court, which could decide as early as Tuesday evening. The Department of Homeland Security projects between 9,000 and 15,000 migrant encounters a day once the policy ends, which would add to the already highest annual total of encounters in U.S. history. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre insisted an end to Title 42 would not mean the border is open. To suggest so, she said, is misinformation and "doing the work of these smugglers." Vice President Kamala Harris, who was tasked with identifying the root cause of mass migration to the southern border, has insisted in recent months that the border is secure. Abbott said he would continue to work with state-based officials to stem the tide of illegal immigration. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/white-house-confirms-zelenskyys-travel-us-ahead-massive-bill-funding-ukrainian-military White House confirms Zelenskyy's travel to US ahead of massive bill funding Ukrainian military The Biden administration confirmed early Wednesday morning Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is on his way to the U.S. to discuss more assistance for the country during its ongoing conflict with Russia. In addition to meeting with President Biden, Zelenskyy is slated to address Congress Wednesday afternoon as lawmakers plan to shell out more money for Ukraine in its latest $1.7 trillion spending bill. The budget includes more than $45 billion in new military and humanitarian aid for his country. A press statement from the Biden admin Wednesday morning said Zelenskyy's address to a joint meeting of Congress will demonstrate the "strong, bipartisan support for Ukraine." In its official statement, the White House added President Biden has been rallying the world to support Ukraine since the Russian invasion in February. "Three hundred days ago, Russia launched a brutal assault against Ukraine. In response, President Biden rallied the world to support the people of Ukraine as they defend their sovereignty and territorial integrity," the statement read. "During the visit, President Biden will announce a significant new package of security assistance to help Ukraine defend itself against Russian aggression." Extensive security measures were already underway in the nation's capital early Wednesday morning as the District prepared for the high-profile visit. As early as 4:30 a.m., Capitol Police cruisers could be seen lined up outside the Capitol building along with cement barricades blocking roads leading up to the building. On behalf of bipartisan Congressional leaders, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., sent a letter to Zelenskyy encouraging his visit to Washington, D.C., in a letter explaining the leaders' "immense respect and admiration" for the Ukrainian president. The pending aid would be the U.S.' largest amount of financial assistance to Ukraine since the war started and is intended to support the fight against Russia for months to come, according to the Associated Press. Congress is also expected to announce a major package of $1.8 billion in military aid on Wednesday, which will include a Patriot missile battery and precision guided bombs for Ukraine's fighter jets. U.S. officials said the package will include about $1 billion in weapons from Pentagon stocks and $800 million in funding through the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, according to the AP. Though the massive spending bill is expected to receive support from many Republicans in the House and Senate, not all are on board with the additional funding. Some GOP lawmakers argued the new round of aid, which will bring the U.S. commitment to the war to over $110 billion, is improper without greater accountability. https://www.theepochtimes.com/us-senate-advances-1-66-trillion-government-funding-bill_4936469.html?utm_source=partner&utm_campaign=BonginoReport US Senate Advances $1.66 Trillion Government-Funding Bill A $1.66 trillion government spending bill drew overwhelming bipartisan support in the U.S. Senate on Tuesday as lawmakers steered it toward passage before a weekend deadline to avoid a partial shutdown of federal agencies. Democratic and Republican negotiators agreed early Tuesday morning on the sweeping bill to fund the federal government through the end of its fiscal year on Sept. 30, raising funding from about $1.5 trillion in the last fiscal year. The Senate voted 70-25 to proceed to debate of the bill, with some Republican senators hoping to offer amendments. A handful of conservative Senate Republicans on Tuesday said they objected to the bill, but would not try to stop its passage. The bill includes other measures agreed on by negotiators from both parties, including a ban on the use of TikTok on government-owned devices and clarification of Congress’s role in certifying elections, an attempt to avoid a repeat of the U.S. Capitol breach on Jan. 6, 2021. Senate and House leaders aim to pass the 4,155-page bill and send it to Democratic President Joe Biden for signing by the end of the week to ensure there are no interruptions to the government’s activities. The Tuesday vote was the first in a series of steps clearing the way for passage by Friday. Failure to pass legislation in time could bring a partial government shutdown beginning Saturday, just before Christmas, and possibly lead into a months-long standoff after Republicans take control of the House on Jan. 3, breaking the grip of Biden’s Democrats on both chambers of Congress. Budget experts found fault with the bill’s size. Included in the bill is $44.9 billion in emergency assistance to Ukraine and NATO allies and $40.6 billion to assist communities across the United States recovering from natural disasters and other matters. The Ukraine funds would be used for military training, equipment, logistics and intelligence support, as well as for replenishing U.S. equipment sent to Kyiv. It also includes funding to prepare for and respond to potential nuclear and radiological incidents in Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin has not ruled out the use of nuclear weapons in the conflict with Ukraine. Included in the Ukraine package is $13.4 billion in economic aid and $2.4 billion to help resettle Ukrainians in the United States. The military aid would be on top of the record $858 billion in U.S. defense spending for the year, which is up from last year’s $740 billion and also exceeds Biden’s request. U.S. lawmakers also included a proposal to bar federal employees from using the Chinese short-video app TikTok on government-owned devices. And they backed a proposal to lift a looming deadline imposing a new safety standard for modern cockpit alerts for two new versions of Boeing Co’s 737 MAX aircraft. https://nypost.com/2022/12/20/intruder-able-to-walk-into-uvalde-school-unchallenged-during-safety-audit/ ‘Intruder’ able to walk into Uvalde school unchallenged as new report slams medical response A Texas safety inspector posing as an intruder was recently able to stroll unchallenged into a Uvalde school — as a damning new investigation also blamed a “flawed medical response” for failing to save some of the 21 slaughtered in a mass shooting at Robb Elementary. The inspector was even able to enter through a back door that did not latch, eerily similar to how 18-year-old madman Salvador Ramos got into Robb Elementary before killing 19 fourth-graders and two teachers. The shocking breach was revealed at a Uvalde school board meeting Monday night, attended by at least a dozen family members of victims of the May shooting, the San Antonio Express-News said. Grieving loved ones were furious that “somebody just walked right in” seven months after one of the deadliest school shootings in history, KSAT also said of the meeting. As part of a state-mandated security audit, an inspector posing as an intruder attempted to gain access to three different schools in the grief-stricken area — strolling into one unchallenged, the meeting heard. Interim district Superintendent Gary Patterson admitted the error, saying the ongoing security lapse “is really 100 percent my responsibility,” telling the meeting: “We have got to secure those areas.” Berlinda Arreola, the grandmother of Uvalde victim Amerie Jo Garza, shared a picture of a school safety officer sitting and looking at his phone. https://trendingpoliticsnews.com/breaking-kari-lake-trial-reveals-42-5-of-randomly-examined-ballots-were-improper/ Kari Lake Trial Reveals 42.5% of Randomly Examined Ballots Were Improper According to Republican governor candidate Kari Lake’s legal team, 42.5% of examined ballots in Maricopa County for the 2022 governor’s race were illegitimate. Lake’s trial began on Wednesday were she is attempting to prove that wide scale fraud took place in Maricopa County on election day. The Lake War Room tweeted on Wednesday that 48 of the 113 ballots that were reviewed during examination were “19-inch ballots produced on 20-inch paper,” In a separate tweet, the Lake War Room wrote, “This Is how they disenfranchised Maricopa County voters on Election Day. The ballots were designed to be unable to be read through the machines. This wasn’t an error. It was malice. The process worked exactly as they intended it to.” One commenter on Twitter noted that there was no way the improper ballot size could have been because of “error.” “The expert testified there are only 2 ways for the 19 inch image to have bee projected onto the 20 in ballot which would cause tabulator errors. Both methods require an administrator to change. This could not have happened by chance or error. It was fraud.” https://twitter.com/i/status/1605620894994354176 - Play Video The race between Hobbs and Lake was decided by less than 18,000 votes. The counts put forward by Lake’s team contest her loss. Most counts were thrown out by Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Peter Thompson, with 8 being tossed while two counts were allowed to proceed. Those counts deal with alleged intentional misconduct. Lake told Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest on Tuesday that this marked a “huge win” for her legal team, saying, “we got great news. We’re taking these b*stards to trial!” Adding that Hobbs would take the stand in the trial. It was later announced by Lake’s attorneys that they had withdrawn the subpoena for Hobbs to testify. “Maricopa County wants you to believe that they are so incompetent that all of the problems on Election Day can be written off as mistakes.

The moves come after a TikTok video from July calling out the company for listing an "1830s slave cabin" went viral. The online short-term rental marketplace immediately removed the listing, then sought out others like it, enlisting the help of historical experts. Airbnb's "Work to fight Discrimination and Build Inclusion" now includes a section called "Prohibiting the Glorification and Marketing of Slavery," which states that in July 2022, the company "took a series of steps to address the listing of properties in the US that were known to include former slave houses," as they "have no place on Airbnb." The three main policies, which only apply to the United States, prohibit "prohibiting the listing of any home or other structure on a former plantation where enslaved people lived or worked if structures that existed during the time of slavery are still present on the property," bar "any structure specifically designed only to house enslaved people and that did house enslaved people," and prohibit "the promotion of slavery-related features as a selling point of a stay." Exceptions will be made for certain Experiences that "provide important educational context" led by "reputable partners and experts." "Currently we have removed listings and experiences associated with roughly 30 properties that are violating our policies," an Airbnb spokesperson told BuzzFeed News.
