The university sector is pushing back against One Nation's migration plan, which would cut hundreds of thousands of international student and graduate places over three years. Pauline Hanson says she's reflecting the will of the people, but industry leaders say the policy could wreak havoc on the economy and worsen skills shortages. The policy has also prompted fresh calls for reform and investment in research and education. - Университеты выступили против миграционного плана партии One Nation, который предусматривает сокращение на сотни тысяч мест для иностранных студентов и выпускников в течение ближайших трёх лет. Лидер партии Полин Хэнсон утверждает, что её предложение отражает настроения австралийцев. Однако представители сектора предупреждают, что такие меры могут нанести серьёзный ущерб экономике и усугубить нехватку квалифицированных специалистов. Предложения One Nation также вновь вызвали дискуссию о необходимости реформ и увеличения инвестиций в образование и научные исследования.In this podcast episode, we hear how One Nation's proposed migration cuts have triggered strong opposition from universities, student groups and industry leaders, who argue the policy would harm education, research, economic growth and Australia's skilled workforce.The main points:One Nation has proposed major migration cuts:The party wants to reduce migration by more than 750,000 places over three years, targeting international students, graduate visa holders, skilled migrants and their families.Universities warn of serious economic and research impacts:University leaders argue the cuts would damage Australia's international education sector, reduce research funding, hurt the economy, and put jobs at risk. They say international education contributes billions of dollars annually.The policy has become part of a broader political debate:Critics from the university sector say One Nation is not alone in seeking tighter student migration settings, arguing both Labor and the Coalition have also supported measures such as student caps and visa restrictions.International students and universities reject claims they are "visa factories"Student representatives say international students have not been properly consulted in the debate and support stronger quality controls rather than arbitrary visa cuts. Universities argue most international students return home after graduating and are not using study as a migration pathway.Business groups warn the cuts could worsen skills shortages:Industry leaders say reducing skilled migration and graduate visas could deepen existing labour shortages in sectors such as engineering, healthcare, aged care, trades and cybersecurity. They are calling for a more efficient and transparent migration system instead of large reductions. - В этом выпуске подкаста мы расскажем, как предложенные партией One Nation меры по сокращению миграции вызвали резкую критику со стороны университетов, студенческих организаций и представителей бизнеса, которые считают, что такая политика нанесёт ущерб образованию, научным исследованиям, экономическому росту и квалифицированным кадрам Австралии.Главные моменты:One Nation предлагает существенно сократить миграцию.Партия хочет уменьшить миграцию более чем на 750 тысяч человек в течение трёх лет. Сокращения затронут иностранных студентов, обладателей виз для выпускников, квалифицированных мигрантов и членов их семей.Университеты предупреждают о серьёзных последствиях для экономики и науки.Руководители университетов заявляют, что такие меры нанесут ущерб сектору международного образования Австралии, приведут к сокращению финансирования исследований, ослабят экономику и поставят под угрозу рабочие места. По их словам, международное образование ежегодно приносит стране миллиарды долларов.Инициатива стала частью более широкой политической дискуссии.Критики из университетского сектора отмечают, что One Nation не единственная партия, выступающая за ужесточение миграционных правил для студентов. По их словам, и Лейбористская партия, и Коалиция также поддерживали такие меры, как ограничение числа иностранных студентов и ужесточение визовых требований.Иностранные студенты и университеты отвергают обвинения в том, что они являются «визовыми фабриками».Представители студентов утверждают, что иностранных студентов практически не привлекали к обсуждению этих инициатив. Они поддерживают более строгий контроль качества образования, но выступают против произвольного сокращения виз. Университеты, в свою очередь, заявляют, что большинство иностранных студентов после окончания учёбы возвращаются домой и не используют образование как способ миграции.Бизнес предупреждает об усилении нехватки кадров.Представители отраслей считают, что сокращение числа квалифицированных мигрантов и обладателей выпускных виз может усугубить уже существующий дефицит работников в таких сферах, как инженерия, здравоохранение, уход за пожилыми людьми, рабочие специальности и кибербезопасность. Они призывают не к масштабному сокращению миграции, а к созданию более эффективной и прозрачной миграционной системы.Больше историй, интервью и новостей от SBS Russian доступно здесь.Слушайте программу на русском языке SBS по понедельникам, четвергам и субботам в 12 часов дня.Читайте нас в Facebook и Instagram и подпишитесь на наши подкасты по этой ссылке.

Cédric Chanson, alias Cézig, a trouvé dans le slam une manière accessible et sensible de dire le monde. Rencontre avec ce slameur aux mots beaux, justes, vrais et drôles !La découverte du slam a jailli comme un éclair dans l'esprit de Cédric Chanson, alias Cézig. "J'écrivais déjà des textes ou des poèmes depuis longtemps, dit-il. Mais en découvrant les slams de Lady Slamenco, une jeune slameuse aujourd'hui décédée, il s'est passé en moi quelque chose de l'ordre de la révélation : c'est de pouvoir avoir des mots qui sont bien dits, bien arrangés, des mots du quotidien qui rendent la poésie très accessible".Ce père de famille à l'allure sportive s'est donc mis à slamer, aiguisant son écriture contre les angles de situations diverses, des plus drôles aux plus douloureuses. Il a passé un contrat avec sa langue, raconte-t-il dans l'un de ses slams intitulé La langue: Elle peut dire tout ce qu'elle veut à une seule condition: que ça soit beau, juste et vrai, sans compromission… Même s'il confesse que ça ne marche pas toujours ainsi, on sent l'homme totalement investi dans cette recherche-là, sur les traces de celui qui connaît les mots de l'amour dans toutes les langues, à savoir Dieu. Un Dieu dont Cédric s'est encore plus rapproché en passant plusieurs années en Afrique avec sa famille, relativisant la notion très "occidentale, très suisse d'un Dieu qui serait au service de notre propre épanouissement, de notre confort". Cézig le reconnaît: ce temps passé en Afrique l'a ramené aux choses essentielles. On en goûte quelques saveurs subtiles dans son slam "Aux grandes petites héroïnes de l'Afrique"…Hébergé par Ausha.

The 2026 US Open is done. Alexander Zverev and Elena Rybakina are the champions — and I'm joined by Christian from CHRISTIAN'S COURT for a full tournament review covering everything that happened over an extraordinary fortnight in New York.THE CHAMPIONSAlexander Zverev beat Ben Shelton 6-3, 7-6(2), 5-7, 6-2 for his SECOND Grand Slam title, six years after leading Dominic Thiem by two sets in the 2020 final here and losing. It caps his best season: a maiden major at Roland-Garros, the Wimbledon final, and at least the semifinals at all four Slams in 2026.Elena Rybakina beat Aryna Sabalenka 6-4, 5-7, 6-2 for her THIRD major and first US Open, denying the two-time defending champion a three-peat that would have made her the first woman to do it since Serena Williams in 2012-14. Rybakina has now beaten Sabalenka in BOTH 2026 Grand Slam finals, and takes over as World No. 1.ALCARAZThe defending champion returned from a four-month layoff after a wrist injury at the Barcelona Open and looked to be building beautifully — until Ben Shelton dethroned him 6-7(5), 6-1, 6-3, 1-6, 7-6(10-7) in a quarterfinal that finished at 3:33 A.M., the latest finish in US Open history, ending an 18-match Grand Slam winning streak.SABALENKATwo-time defending champion, World No. 1 coming in, sixth straight US Open semifinal — and it ends with the three-peat denied and the top ranking gone. Where does she go from here?We also cover Zheng Qinwen's run from qualifying to the quarterfinals, Novak Djokovic's first-round exit, Shelton and Tiafoe's all-American semifinal, and what the rest of the season looks like.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS0:00 Intro ft.

PaceCase and BachelorClues break down the 15 biggest takeaways from Season 5 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, a five-episode reality television fever dream that somehow became one of the most important Bachelor documents ever made. From Taylor Frankie Paul's post-Bachelorette dark period and the increasingly blurred line between MomTok and Bachelor Nation to Dakota, Whitney, Jen, Mikayla, Layla, Mason and the most complicit reality TV production imaginable, we analyze the gameplay, production manipulation, fame strategy and absolute SLAM packed into the season—and what it all means for Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Season 6 and the future of The Bachelor.Subscribe to Game of Roses on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/gameofrosesPatreon: https://patreon.com/gameofrosesMerch: https://gameofroses.orgListen on Apple Podcasts: http://bit.ly/gameofrosesListen on Spotify: http://bit.ly/spotifygameofroses Hosted on Acast.

Ben and Tumaini are together in person for the last time this year to talk about the U.S. Open finals and their champions. We start with the men's final, in which Ben Shelton could not overcome the serve and steadiness of Alexander Zverev (and his lengthy, erratic ball-bouncing). Do Zverev's two Slam wins meaningfully shift the landscape of men's tennis, or does this all feel like an intermission? We then turn to the women, where Elena Rybakina produced a far more emphatic championship performance, beating Aryna Sabalenka (and sending her crashing out early and often) and ascending to the No. 1 post on the WTA Tour. How will Rybakina wear the crown going forward? It's been a long U.S. Open, and we thank you for being there with us throughout it.  Thank you for listening!

Three people are dead and three others injured after a violent holiday weekend in Seattle, raising new questions about public safety, street takeovers, gun violence and the Seattle Police Department's response to crime. Three separate shootings occurred in Seattle's Belltown area over the weekend, including violence connected to another street takeover near the Seattle Center and Space Needle. At the time of this episode, Seattle police had announced no arrests in the weekend shootings. Interim Seattle Police Chief Andre Sales is responding to the violence and questions about whether officers were overwhelmed. Sales says SPD is working with business owners, increasing patrols and bike patrols, coordinating with its Community Response Group and Gun Violence Reduction Unit, and targeting individuals known to police for violent activity. He also addressed Seattle's continuing problem with illegal street takeovers and promised the department would work with local, regional and federal partners to combat them. Also on Washington in Focus Daily, September 11, 2026 marks 25 years since the 9/11 terrorist attacks. New research is examining the long-term health effects suffered by World Trade Center first responders, including a potential connection between toxic exposure, PTSD and accelerated brain aging. The research examined brain scans from World Trade Center responders and found evidence suggesting that both psychological trauma and exposure to toxic chemicals could play a role in long-term cognitive and neurological effects. Meanwhile, tens of thousands of people continue to live with physical and mental health conditions connected to the September 11 attacks. Finally, Washington state employee unions are negotiating their next two-year collective bargaining agreements with Gov. Bob Ferguson's administration and the Office of Financial Management. State workers are seeking increased compensation and other contract changes as Washington faces continued budget pressure. Critics are also questioning why Washington's public-sector collective bargaining negotiations take place behind closed doors. State Sen. Mark Schoesler argues taxpayers ultimately pay for the compensation agreements and says the bargaining process needs greater transparency. Washington in Focus Daily breaks down Seattle's deadly weekend, the Seattle Police Department's response, new research into the long-term health effects of 9/11, and the growing fight over Washington state worker contracts, government spending and taxpayer transparency. #Seattle #SeattleCrime #SeattlePolice #SeattleNews #WashingtonState #WashingtonNews #September11 #911Anniversary #FirstResponders #StateWorkers #BobFerguson #WashingtonPolitics #TheCenterSquare Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Kerry Rose Schwartz is ComfyWithKerry, an L.A. sensation with her "Scam or Slam" series. Often polarizing, always honest - Kerry delivers the goods on eating in Los Angeles, what really goes into creating her food and L.A. adventures, and how she turned her personality into a full-time career. Long before TikTok and Instagram, Kerry grew up in New York, appeared on reality television, worked behind the scenes in Hollywood, and wrote "Series of Unfortunate Men." We discuss life as an author, the strange business of being an influencer, and how all of her seemingly disconnected experiences ultimately led to ComfyWithKerry and whether dining in L.A. really is a scam.

Techno is a layered phenomenon. On the surface level is the talk, fleeting and temporary. Beneath it lies an intricate web woven by all manner of creatives and intellectuals. At the center of it all is the sound itself, and it is in this realm of sonic abstraction that you find Max Gardner.      The San Francisco DJ and producer did not initially pursue electronic music with ambitions to promote himself as a brand. Doors opened nonetheless, and they never stopped. He is now one of the artists most closely associated with Bay Area techno, releasing on labels like Sonic Groove, Blank Code, and Northern Parallels.       A pivotal turning point saw Max launch a label called Peer. He set forth to create a techno platform free of superstar ego, prioritizing musical merit over celebrity. Since its launch, Peer has become a respected outlet for forward-thinking underground techno from both established artists and emerging voices.     Max's often psychedelic, sometimes suspenseful, always hypnotic range of the techno spectrum has brought him to audiences across the US and Europe, with performances in New York, Detroit, Los Angeles, Berlin, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Madrid, Lisbon, Medellín, and more. At home, he has held residencies at essential San Francisco venues including F8, 1015 Folsom, Monarch, and the legendary 222 Hyde.     As founder of the influential Direct to Earth collective and a resident throughout its 15+ year history, Max helped establish the foundation for San Francisco's modern techno community long before the genre reached its current prominence in the Bay Area. What began as a niche scene has since grown into a thriving network of artists, promoters, venues, and audiences.     Max Gardner lives for the ephemeral moments in which time stands still, where words fail, as pure and honest audio shakes every reveler to their core. To see him behind the decks is to understand that he belongs here. He knows this world intimately. His place in it is permanent.

The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com Garth Heckman Spud Webb 5'7 In Junior high he went to try out and his coach told him to sit in the stands…. You are too short.  Cut from his Junior year of BB and had to talk his coach into keeping him. He scored 20 points his first game.  No Div. 1 college would even look at him. So he had to play at Midland College- lead them to a national JR league Championship, then got a scholarship to NC state.  Every NBA scout scoffed. They said maybe he could play overseas or if he was lucky he could play with the Harlem Globetrotters. Every NBA team passed on him multiple times… He fell to the fifth round and was drafted by the Detroit pistons… and cut before the season ever started.  He was “lucky” enough to be signed as an undrafted free agent by the Atlanta Hawks… At that time his star teammate Dominique Williams was the Slam dunk Champion… spud entered the contest and Dominique said he thought it was a joke and he would do layups… Spud won with numerous 360 slams, dunks off the backboard and Reverse slam dunks…. People laughed at him! He credits his belief in knowing God gave him that talent for a reason, and that dream for a purpose.    My question today is: How will you respond when people laugh at your dream?       Gen 18:1  And the LORD appeared to him by the oaks of Mamre, as he sat at the door of his tent in the heat of the day. 2  He lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, three men were standing in front of him. When he saw them, he ran from the tent door to meet them and bowed himself to the earth 3  and said, “O Lord, if I have found favor in your sight, do not pass by your servant.4  Let a little water be brought, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree,5  while I bring a morsel of bread, that you may refresh yourselves, and after that you may pass on—since you have come to your servant.” So they said, “Do as you have said.”6  And Abraham went quickly into the tent to Sarah and said, “Quick! Three seahs of fine flour! Knead it, and make cakes.7  And Abraham ran to the herd and took a calf, tender and good, and gave it to a young man, who prepared it quickly.8  Then he took curds and milk and the calf that he had prepared, and set it before them. And he stood by them under the tree while they ate.9  They said to him, “Where is Sarah your wife?” And he said, “She is in the tent.”10  The LORD said, “I will surely return to you about this time next year, and Sarah your wife shall have a son.” And Sarah was listening at the tent door behind him.11  Now Abraham and Sarah were old, advanced in years. The way of women had ceased to be with Sarah.12  So Sarah laughed to herself, saying, “After I am worn out, and my lord is old, shall I have pleasure?”13  The LORD said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Shall I indeed bear a child, now that I am old?'14  Is anything too hard for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you, about this time next year, and Sarah shall have a son.”15  But Sarah denied it, saying, “I did not laugh,” for she was afraid. He said, “No, but you did laugh.”         Rather than just "inappropriate" or "disrespectful," biblical scholars and linguists often look at Sarah's reaction in Genesis 18:12 through a few distinct lenses:   1. Incredulous Incredulity captures a mix of disbelief, shock, and impossibility. Sarah was roughly 90 years old, well past childbearing age, and had dealt with a lifetime of infertility. Hearing a stranger tell Abraham she would have a baby by the following year sounded biologically absurd.   Abraham lives in a Spiritual and Theological worldview… Sarah lives in a physical biological world view…     2. Sarcastic (or Cynical) In Hebrew, Sarah's inner monologue reads as a self-deprecating scoff: "After I am worn out and my lord is old, will I now have this pleasure?" Describing her reaction as sarcastic or cynical highlights the defense mechanism of a woman who had likely given up hope decades prior and saw the statement as a cruel taunt or bad joke.   3. Human Her reaction was deeply human. It wasn't necessarily a malicious rebellion against God; it was an involuntary emotional slip—a defense mechanism triggered by years of grief, trauma, and disappointment over her barrenness.   The Nuance: Her laugh isn't scoffing insolence; it's a reflex against emotional re-traumatization. When a deep, long-buried desire is suddenly brought up by a stranger, cynicism acts as armor to protect the heart from being broken one more time. The Insight: Faith doesn't require instantaneous emotional compliance. God engages directly with her reaction rather than striking her down, recognizing the pain behind her defense.   4. Prophetic In the broader arc of Genesis, her laughter is viewed as prophetic or foreshadowing. The Hebrew root for laugh (tzachaq) is the exact root used for the name of the child God promises: Isaac (Yitzchak), which literally means "he laughs" or "laughter". What began as the laugh of doubt in Genesis 18 transforms into the laugh of joy and wonder when Isaac is born in Genesis 21: "God has brought me laughter, and everyone who hears about this will laugh with me".   Key takeaway: While her response is often labeled as "disbelief," calling it incredulous or sarcastic better captures her emotional reality, while calling it prophetic reveals the literary wordplay embedded in the text.     MAYBE OUR REACTION SHOULD MATCH *TO SOME DEGREE …SARAHS… WHY? WHY WOULD GOD USE ABRAHAM A MAN OF MANY FAULTS?      Failure 1: Deception in Egypt Age ~75 (Gen 12:10–20) The Misstep: When a severe famine strikes Canaan, Abram migrates to Egypt without seeking divine direction. Fearing the Egyptians will kill him for his beautiful wife, he asks Sarai to lie and say she is his sister.   The Fallout: Pharaoh takes Sarai into his royal palace as a concubine while enriching Abram. God strikes Pharaoh's household with severe plagues. Upon discovering the truth, Pharaoh rebukes Abram for his deceit and expels his family from Egypt.       Separation from Lot & Rescue Age ~75–80 (Gen 13–14) As their livestock herds grow too large for the land to support both of them, quarreling breaks out between Abram's and Lot's herdsmen. Abram generously gives Lot first pick WITHOUT SEEKING GOD - Lot gets captured.      The Unconditional Covenant Age ~85 (Gen 15) Abram voices concern that he remains childless and his servant Eliezer will inherit his house. God reassures Abram that a biological son will be his heir and cuts a formal covenant with him, promising descendants as numerous as the stars.       Failure 2: Scheming with Hagar Age 85–86 (Gen 16) The Misstep: After living in Canaan for ten years without a child, Sarai proposes that Abram take her Egyptian servant, Hagar, as a surrogate mother. Abram agrees without seeking God's guidance, taking matters into his own hands to force the fulfillment of the promise.   The Fallout: Once Hagar becomes pregnant, domestic conflict erupts. Hagar despises Sarai, Sarai mistreats Hagar, and Abram washes his hands of the dispute. Hagar flees into the wilderness before an angel instructs her to return. She gives birth to Ishmael when Abram is 86.       The Covenant of Circumcision & Abraham's Internal Doubt Age 99 (Gen 17) The Moment of Disbelief: After 13 years of silence, God appears, renames Abram to Abraham ("Father of a Multitude") and Sarai to Sarah ("Princess"), and institutes circumcision as the covenant sign. When God explicitly states that Sarah herself will bear a son within a year, Abraham falls face down and laughs to himself, asking mentally: "Will a son be born to a man a hundred years old? Will Sarah bear a child at ninety?" (Gen 17:17).     The Three Visitors at Mamre & Sarah's Laugh Age 99 (Gen 18:1–15) Three divine visitors visit Abraham under the oaks of Mamre. The Lord repeats the divine pledge: "I will surely return to you about this time next year, and Sarah your wife will have a son."   Overhearing this from inside the tent entrance, Sarah laughs to herself, thinking about her advanced age and physical state. When the Lord asks why she laughed and whether anything is too hard for God, Sarah denies it out of fear, but the Lord responds: "No, you did laugh."     MAYBE SARAH IS LAUGHING KNOWING WHO HER HUSBAND REALLY IS?       BECAUSE EVEN AFTER THIS VISITATION FROM GOD….   King Abimelech (Genesis 20:1–18) The Outcome: Abimelech takes Sarah into his harem. However, God appears to Abimelech in a dream, warning him that Sarah is married and that he will die if he touches her. Abimelech protests that he acted in good faith, returns Sarah untouched, gives Abraham restitution, and asks why Abraham did this.     Pattern in Abraham's Failures Across these 24 years, Abraham's missteps shared a common theme: self-preservation and impatience.     BUT LETS ASK OURSELVES A QUESTION: Regardless of how Sarah saw her husband Abraham - regardless of how we see him… How did God see him?      Names and Titles Given to Abraham   Abraham ("Father of a Multitude"): Originally named Abram ("Exalted Father"), God personally renamed him in Genesis 17:5 to reflect his ultimate destiny: "No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you a father of many nations." "My Friend": God personally refers to Abraham as His friend in Isaiah 41:8 ("Abraham My friend"), a title affirmed throughout Scripture (2 Chronicles 20:7, James 2:23). Prophet: In Genesis 20:7, God speaks to King Abimelech regarding Abraham, stating, "Restore the man's wife, for he is a prophet, and he will pray for you and you shall live." "My Servant": God repeatedly refers to Abraham with honor as His servant (Genesis 26:24, Psalm 105:6), marking him as a trusted agent of the Divine will. The Promises and Blessings Spoken Over Him Divine Shield and Great Reward: Infinite Descendants: Royal Lineage and Multiplied Nations: Universal Blessing for All Humanity: Divine Protection: An Everlasting Land Covenant:     SARAH MAY HAVE LAUGHED AT FIRST IN DISBELIEF - BUT   3. Sarah's later reversal is the untold "second half" of the story. But Genesis 21:6 gives Sarah's own commentary once Isaac is born: "God has brought me laughter, and everyone who hears about this will laugh with me." She takes the very word she used in doubt and reclaims it in worship. Isaac's name literally means "he laughs." This is a remarkable narrative arc — cynical laughter transformed into worshipful laughter —          FINAL THOUGHT: WHY DID GOD CHOOSE ABRAHAM?  IN SPITE OF ALL HIS FLAWS HE PRACTICED GODS HEART AND DESIGN FOR PRAYER.   What do I mean? Gen. 18 later in the chapter God tells Abraham I am going to destroy Sodom and Gomorra and Abraham does something very familiar according to Luke 11.       Luke 11 tells us how to pray - AFTER SHARING THE LORDS PRAYER JESUS SAYS SOMETHING AWKWARD ABOUT PRAYER - A parable.  A man goes to his friends house - he needs 3 loaves of bread… he will not give up asking.    If you ask seek knock - out of sheer perseverance I will answer!   Abraham here in Gen. 18 does just that for Sodom and Gomorra - showing Gods heart for the lost. 50 45 40 30 20 10!   I believe one of the greatest clues is given in these two stories in scripture about who God uses!   The one that will not give up asking God to fulfill his purpose!     WHAT IF WE UNDERSTOOD THE STORY OF ABRAHAM LIKE THIS: Yes he was a heap of missteps, failures, a massive example of weak humanity….    But in all his mistakes and failures he never quit asking God for that son!  FOR THAT ANSWERED PRAYER.      WILL YOU BE THE ONE WHO P.U.S.H.es into God. P - pray U - until S - something H - happens?

A normal Thursday turned into three stories at once: Alcaraz announcing his US Open return, the USTA's record $108 million prize money package & Slam Player Council, and Karen Moorhouse stepping down as CEO of the ITIA. Andy and Jon get into what a 20% prize money increase actually buys the players, why first-round qualifying money is now higher than what Andy earned reaching the main draw, and the ticket price fight that's about to define this tournament — including why the $400 grounds passes people are screenshotting on Twitter aren't the USTA's list price. COMMENT BELOW: Are you excited for Carlos Alcaraz return?

In today's show, we are jumping straight into two major legal battles shaping our industry. First, we break down a FreightWaves report on 22 states suing to stop a massive federal request for 17 million CDL holder records, looking at the thin line between FMCSA driver safety enforcement and commercial driver privacy.  Next, we'll move to an Overdrive article detailing how federal courts are cracking down on double brokering and enforcing vicarious liability following devastating accidents involving companies like A1 Logistics and Penske.  If you are a freight broker, this is your wake-up call to stop turning a blind eye, tighten your carrier vetting processes, and fix your internal operations before getting dragged into a courtroom!   Resources / References https://www.freightwaves.com/news/why-22-states-are-suing-to-block-a-federal-demand-for-17-million-truckers-records https://www.overdriveonline.com/business/article/15832732/courts-cracking-down-on-double-brokers-with-two-important-cases
