Brendan Paul agrees to testify under immunity in Diddy's trial. Jurors see Cassie's texts after hotel beating as judge erupts over leak. #STSNation, Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #TrueCrime… It's Week 6, Day 25 of the federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs — and things are heating up. This midday update breaks down why Brendan Paul — Diddy's former assistant and alleged drug runner — will now testify under immunity after pleading the Fifth. Jurors were shown Cassie Ventura's heartbreaking text messages after the 2016 hotel beating, including: “I have a black eye and a fat lip.” Plus, the courtroom got tense as Judge Arun Subramanian slammed both legal teams over a leaked article from Friday's sealed hearing — warning of contempt charges and even device searches. The prosecution could rest as soon as tomorrow, with the defense expected to take just 2–5 days.⸻ #Support the show:All Things STS: Https://linktr.ee/stspodcastGet Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSTS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Support the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorCatch us live on YouTube: Surviving The Survivor: #BestGuests in True Crime - YouTubeVenmo Donations: @STSPodcast#DiddyTrial #SeanCombs #CassieVentura #BrendanPaul #FederalCourt #TrueCrimePodcast #SurvivingTheSurvivor #DrugTrafficking #GagOrder #Racketeering

Political observers are describing Canada's move as “unprecedented” after foreign minister Anita Anand announced on June 10 the country has joined 4 other allied nations in imposing travel and economic sanctions against two extreme-right wing, Israeli politicians for being part of West Bank settler violence against Palestinians. Canada has slapped similar sanctions on several civilian Israeli settlers three times already since 2024, accusing them of fomenting attacks on Palestinians and their villages–attacks which largely go unpunished. But the listing of Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir, sitting members of a democratic, Western government that is a long-time ally of Canada, is being seen as an important diplomatic “signalling its extreme displeasure with the Israeli government”. Smotrich is Israel's current finance minister, while Ben Gvir is in charge of national security. Both men live in settlements on the West Bank, and both have made highly controversial remarks about Palestinians, about wanting to annex the West Bank and Gaza for Israel, even that there is no such thing as a Palestinian people. The International Court of Justice is now hearing a case about incitement to genocide because of some of these remarks. While progressive Jewish leaders in Canada have praised the sanctions on the two men, in practise, experts say Canada rarely enforces them. To explain the strategy behind Canada's team approach to the new sanctions on Israeli politicians and what message they're meant to send, on today's episode of North Star, host Ellin Bessner speaks with Thomas Juneau. He is a professor of political science and an expert in Middle East studies at the Graduate School of Public and International Affairs, University of Ottawa.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has denounced the decision by five Western governments to impose sanctions on far-right ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich. Rubio called on the United Kingdom, Canada, Norway, New Zealand and Australia to reverse their decision. “These sanctions do not advance US-led efforts to achieve a ceasefire, bring all hostages home and end the war,” he said. KAN's Mark Weiss spoke about the sanctions with Res Ltn Col Maurice Hirsch from the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs.

Today's Headlines: Roughly 2,700 U.S. Marines and National Guard troops have arrived in Los Angeles amid ongoing protests, though they haven't been formally deployed. The Pentagon estimates the cost of this operation, plus a military parade, could reach $200 million by week's end—despite the lack of proper housing for many troops. President Trump hinted at invoking the Insurrection Act. Meanwhile, over 100 LA schools are tightening graduation security due to fears of ICE activity. Nationally, HHS Secretary RFK Jr. removed all 17 CDC vaccine advisors, calling for a "clean sweep" to restore public trust—despite the committee's nonpartisan makeup. Globally, the World Bank predicts just 2.3% economic growth this year, citing Trump-era tariffs and global instability. U.S. growth is forecasted at only 1.4%. In Austria, a former student fatally shot 10 peers in Graz, prompting national mourning. And in Brussels, the EU proposed its 18th sanctions package against Russia, aimed at cutting off oil and gas revenue.

The idea of Artificial Intelligence has long presented potential challenges in the legal realm, and as AI tools become more broadly available and widely used, those potential hurdles are becoming ever more salient for lawyers in their day-to-day operations. Questions abound, from what potential risks of bias and error may exist in using an AI tool, to the challenges related to professional responsibility as traditionally understood, to the risks large language learning models pose to client confidentiality. Some contend that AI is a must-use, as it opens the door to faster, more efficient legal research that could equip lawyers to serve their clients more effectively. Others reject the use of AI, arguing that the risks of use and the work required to check the output it gives exceed its potential benefit.Join us for a FedSoc Forum exploring the ethical and legal implications of artificial intelligence in the practice of law.

From March 14, 2023: For years, the international community has wrestled with how to reconcile sanctions policies targeting terrorist groups and other malevolent actors with the need to provide humanitarian assistance in areas under those groups' control. Late last year, both the Biden administration and the UN Security Council took major steps toward a new approach on this issue, installing broad carveouts for humanitarian assistance into existing sanctions regimes. To talk through these changes, Lawfare Senior Editor Scott R. Anderson sat down with two leading sanctions experts: Rachel Alpert, a Partner at the law firm Jenner & Block and former State Department attorney, and Alex Zerden, the Founder and Principal of Capitol Peak Strategies and a former Treasury Department official, including at the U.S. Embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan. They talked about the long-standing issues surrounding humanitarian assistance, what these changes may mean in jurisdictions like Afghanistan, and where more changes may yet be forthcoming.

Universal Music Group (UMG) and its CEO Lucian Grainge were dismissed from a lawsuit involving Sean "Diddy" Combs after the plaintiff's lawyer admitted there was "no legal basis" for the claims. The lawsuit, initially filed by producer Rodney "Lil Rod" Jones, accused Diddy of sexual assault and harassment during the production of Diddy's 2023 "The Love Album." It also implicated UMG and Grainge in a broader conspiracy under the RICO statute and sex trafficking laws.UMG's legal team had argued the claims were baseless and intended to seek legal penalties against Tyrone Blackburn, Jones' attorney, for including them in the suit. In May 2024, Blackburn acknowledged the lack of legal foundation for the allegations against UMG and Grainge, requesting their dismissal with prejudice, which prevents future refiling. UMG's lead attorney, Donald Zakarin, criticized Blackburn for bringing unfounded accusations that he described as "recklessly false" and potentially libelous outside the context of a legal complaint.Despite the dismissal of UMG and Grainge from the lawsuit, Diddy continues to face multiple abuse allegations, which he has strongly denied.In this episode, we take a look at the timeline relating to the Rule 11 sanctions.(commercial at 7:04)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.616406.61.1.pdf (courtlistener.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
The UN's human rights chief has demanded the US government withdraw sanctions it imposed on four judges at the International Criminal Court , the ICC. Volker Türk said in a statement that "attacks against judges" run directly counter to "respect for the rule of law and the equal protection of the law – values for which the US has long stood". US Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced the sanctions on Thursday, for what he described as the "illegitimate" targeting of Israel and the US. PM Netanyahu thanked Rubio and US President Donald Trump for the intervention, saying they had "stood up for the right of Israel". The sanctions are in response to the ICC issuing arrest warrants for top Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and its investigation into alleged US war crimes in Afghanistan. KAN's Mark Weiss spoke with Nick Kaufman , a defense counsel at the ICC.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It looks like Donald Trump's Department of Justice lawyers just can't stop violation court orders. The presiding Judge, Paula Xinis, has granted Abrego Garcia's legal team's request to pursue sanctions for the DOJ's violation of court- ordered discovery. As the Fox network (of all places) wrote: " Federal judge delivers one-two punch to Trump in Abregao Garcia case."

With Max Verstappen admitting that his clash with George Russell in the Spanish Grand Prix was “a move that was not right and shouldn't have happened”, we discuss what that tells us about the four-times world champion in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast.Dutch TV commentator Nelson Valkenburg and Scott Mitchell-Malm join Edd Straw to revisit the accident and examine exactly what it is that drives Verstappen to do things like this.We also ask whether criticisms about his failure to live up to role model status and questions about if the FIA stewards should be harsher are valid.There's also the question of how significant, or overblown, this incident is, as well as listener questions about Verstappen's future away from Red Bull and whether he could swap between the A-team and Racing Bulls depending on circuit.LAST CHANCE: Get 75% off your first month of access when you join The Race Members' Club on Patreon.

In part 4 of 'The Internet Saves the Bachelor,' we examine the growing cracks in Laura Owens' story as her pregnancy timeline collapses under scrutiny. At one hearing, she claims to be 24 weeks pregnant. In another, she says she miscarried months earlier. The dates keep shifting — July, August, October — and still, no medical provider can confirm that she was ever pregnant. Clayton Echard's legal team seizes on the inconsistencies. They ask the court to dismiss the case, arguing it was filed in bad faith. Sanctions, attorney's fees, and even questions of criminal liability begin to surface.
