TikTok forced to sell or face ban
The Senate approved legislation on Tuesday that compels TikTok’s Chinese parent company to sell the social media platform or face a ban, a move expected to be legally contested and disrupt the livelihoods of content creators reliant on the app for income.
The measure, part of a $95 billion foreign aid package for Ukraine and Israel, passed 79-18 and heads to President Joe Biden for signing on Wednesday.
Originally stalled in the Senate, the bill gained momentum after House Republicans appended it to the aid package.
Initially granting ByteDance six months to divest from TikTok, the revised legislation extends the deadline to nine months, with a possible three-month extension during a sale process, the Associated Press has reported.

New evidence challenges Pentagon’s account of attack as US withdrew from Afghanistan
CNN has uncovered new video evidence that challenges Pentagon investigations into an ISIS-K suicide attack outside Kabul airport in August 2021, during the US troop withdrawal from Afghanistan.
The incident resulted in the deaths of 13 US service members and around 170 Afghans seeking evacuation.
Previously, the military attributed the casualties to a single explosion, dismissing reports of gunfire.
However, video footage and eyewitness testimonies reveal extensive gunfire, contradicting official accounts.
The evidence raises doubts about the credibility of Pentagon investigations and suggests civilians may have been shot, CNN reported in an exclusive article published on their website.

Reserve Brigades Called Up Ahead of Expected Rafah Offensive
Israel appears poised to launch a military offensive to seize the last remaining Hamas stronghold in Gaza.
The Israeli Defense Ministry has acquired 40,000 tents, signaling preparations for a potential evacuation of civilians from Rafah, where over a million Palestinians are located.
Satellite images show new tent encampments near Khan Younis, though it’s unclear if they’re linked to the impending operation.
Israel has mobilized two reserve brigades, while Egypt is also setting up campsites and reinforcing its border security, the Wall Street Journal has reported.

FBI working with colleges to warn of antisemitic threats, violence
FBI Director Christopher Wray stated that the agency is collaborating with colleges and universities to alert them about potential violence amid a surge of protests surrounding the Israel-Hamas conflict on campuses nationwide.
While the FBI doesn’t directly monitor college protests, Wray mentioned they are furnishing information to schools upon identifying potential threats.
The bureau aims to proactively work with local law enforcement and campus authorities to prevent violence.
Recent large-scale protests erupted at various colleges, notably at Columbia University, where over 100 students were arrested, sparking discussions on political platforms.
Speakers, including politicians like Mike Johnson (R-La.), have engaged with students amid accusations of antisemitism and alleged threats of violence, The Hill has reported.

Hamas release video showing US-Israeli hostage with hand missing
Hamas released a video purportedly showing Israeli hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin on their Telegram channel, although The Jerusalem Post couldn’t verify its date or authenticity.
Hamas often uses such videos to pressure Israel and engage in psychological warfare.
In the video, Goldberg-Polin recounts being seized during an attack on the Nova Music Festival, contradicting Hamas’s claims of avoiding civilian targets.
He suffered serious injuries, including the loss of his left hand, during the assault. His parents shared harrowing details of the incident, the Jerusalem Post has reported.

Haley attracts over 150K votes in PA primary, weeks after dropping bid
Despite dropping out of the race weeks ago, former Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley garnered over 150,000 votes in the Pennsylvania GOP primary, securing 16.6 percent of the total.
While former President Trump overwhelmingly won the primary, securing all of Pennsylvania’s delegates, Haley’s significant vote count reflects ongoing support despite her withdrawal.
Initially emerging as Trump’s main challenger in the Republican primaries, Haley ultimately couldn’t overcome his lead and exited the race after Super Tuesday in March, The Hill has reported.

MTG claims that Democrats want Trump to be ‘murdered in jail’
Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, in an interview with Infowars host Alex Jones, alleged that Democrats are aiming to have former President Donald Trump “murdered in jail.”
Greene suggested that the multiple criminal cases against Trump are orchestrated by political rivals to imprison him until his death, citing a bill proposed by Mississippi Democrat Rep Bennie Thompson to strip Secret Service protections from former officials convicted of felonies.
Greene also claims that Trump is being unfairly targeted by Democrats, the DOJm and the Biden Administration, the Independent has reported.

Flamethrowing robot dog that can shoot fire up to 30ft goes on sale
A company in the United States has developed a flame-throwing robotic dog called the Thermonator, capable of delivering fire on demand.
Priced at $9,420 (£7,600), the remote-controlled device, created by Ohio-based firm Throwflame, is marketed for various purposes including wildlife control, snow and ice removal, and entertainment, rather than as a weapon.
Equipped with a laser sight, flashlight, and light-sensitive mapping capabilities, it can shoot 30ft jets of fire and operate at night, The Telegraph has reported.

FTC Bans Noncompete Clauses That Restrict Job Switching
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has issued a rule prohibiting employers from using noncompete contracts to restrict most workers from joining rival firms, a move popular with labor but facing legal challenges from business groups.
This marks the first time in over 50 years that the FTC has mandated an economy-wide change.
The rule bars companies from enforcing existing noncompete agreements on anyone other than senior executives and prohibits new contracts for such executives.
FTC Chair Lina Khan emphasized the restoration of economic rights to workers and the detrimental impact of noncompete clauses on competition and worker pay, the Wall Street Journal has reported.

Judge reprimands Trump lawyer but holds off on gag order ruling
In Donald Trump’s criminal trial, the New York judge, Juan Merchan, postponed a decision on whether to fine Trump $10,000 for violating a gag order by attacking expected trial witnesses.
Trump’s lawyer, Todd Blanche, argued that Trump’s social media posts were political responses and thus permissible.
However, Judge Merchan expressed strong skepticism, stating that Blanche was losing credibility with the court.
Prosecutors sought contempt charges and fines for each of the 10 offending posts.
They also planned to allege further violations based on Trump’s remarks outside the courtroom, The Guardian has reported.

GOP senators urge Biden to mobilize National Guard to protect Jewish college students
Senators Josh Hawley and Tom Cotton have urged President Biden to deploy the National Guard to protect Jewish American college students amid rising tensions sparked by anti-Israel demonstrations on campuses.
Hawley referenced President Eisenhower’s 1957 deployment of troops to ensure the safety of Black students in Little Rock and urged similar action to protect Jewish students, citing incidents of violence and intimidation at Columbia University.
Meanwhile, Cotton called for Biden to intervene if local authorities fail to act. Biden has condemned the antisemitic protests but also emphasized understanding the Palestinian perspective.
Campus authorities have struggled to contain the situation, with Jewish leaders advising students to leave for their safety, The Washington Times reported.

The President disclosed that discussions regarding nuclear sharing have been ongoing between Poland and the United States for some time, indicating a proactive approach to addressing regional security concerns.
Additionally, Duda spoke favorably about his recent meeting with former U.S. President Donald Trump, underscoring their longstanding friendship and mutual respect, Politico reported.

Silent and brooding, Trump endures courtroom ordeal
In a New York courtroom, Donald Trump witnessed a historic moment as the first former US president facing criminal prosecution.
Accustomed to swift outcomes, Trump now faces the slow pace of legal proceedings.
Prosecutors accused him of falsifying business records to silence Stormy Daniels and colluding with a media boss to conceal damaging stories.
Trump appeared uncomfortable as his own words were quoted, but his defense argued that such actions were commonplace in politics.
Meanwhile, witnesses like David Pecker, a tabloid executive, provided colorful testimony about checkbook journalism, the AFP reported.

Astronomers spot a massive ‘sleeping giant’ black hole less than 2,000 light-years from Earth
Astronomers have made a remarkable discovery in the Milky Way galaxy: they’ve identified the most massive stellar black hole known to date, dubbed Gaia BH3.
This behemoth, nicknamed the “sleeping giant,” boasts a mass nearly 33 times that of the sun and resides 1,926 light-years away in the Aquila constellation, making it the second-closest black hole to Earth.
Its closest counterpart, Gaia BH1, lies about 1,500 light-years away and has a mass nearly 10 times that of the sun.
The detection of Gaia BH3 was unexpected, uncovered during a review of data from the European Space Agency’s Gaia space telescope.
Astronomers noticed a peculiar motion caused by Gaia BH3’s gravitational pull on a nearby companion, CNN reported.

NASA reveals ‘glass-smooth lake of cooling lava’ on surface of Jupiter’s moon Io
NASA’s Juno spacecraft has provided stunning close-up images of Io, one of Jupiter’s moons, revealing a massive lava lake on its surface.
During flybys in December 2023 and January 2024, Juno came within 930 miles of Io, offering the closest-ever glimpse of the moon’s volcanic activity.
Io boasts hundreds of active volcanoes, with eruptions sometimes visible from telescopes on Earth.
The newly captured images showcase Loki Patera, a colossal 127-mile-long lava lake on Io.
Scientists have been monitoring this feature for years, noting its position above magma reservoirs beneath Io’s surface.
Juno’s observations reveal a remarkably smooth surface, reminiscent of volcanic glass on Earth, Live Science reported.

NY Home Depot hires guards, dogs to keep parking lot safe from thieves, aggressive migrants
A Home Depot in New York has implemented a security measure involving guard dogs to address concerns about aggressive migrants and theft in its parking lots.
The guard dogs, accompanied by security personnel, patrol the premises to deter unwanted behavior.
While the specific focus is on migrant-related issues, such as solicitation and aggressive sales tactics, the guards also address other security concerns like car break-ins.
At the New Rochelle location, where the security measures were observed, the atmosphere was calm.
However, in other areas like Throggs Neck, The Bronx, migrant activity was more pronounced, with instances of aggressive solicitation reported.
Some migrants sought day labor opportunities, while others engaged in aggressive behavior towards shoppers, the New York Post reported.

The cost of buying a house hit another record high as mortgage rates spike again
A recent report reveals that the cost of purchasing a new home has reached an all-time high due to increasing mortgage rates.
Redfin’s findings show that the combination of higher mortgage rates and elevated home prices has pushed the median monthly housing payment to a record $2,775, marking an 11% surge from the previous year.
Nationwide senior economist Ben Ayers highlights the challenges faced by homebuyers, citing limited housing supply and rising costs as major barriers, especially for first-time buyers.
The affordability crisis stems from years of underbuilding, compounded by rising mortgage rates and expensive construction materials.
Sellers who secured low mortgage rates during the pandemic are reluctant to sell, further constraining supply.
Economists predict continued high mortgage rates in 2024, with little relief expected until the Federal Reserve begins cutting rates, Fox Business reported.

Tesla pivots to robotaxies amid slow sales according to report
Tesla’s focus on a cheaper electric vehicle has been postponed, with reports indicating a shift towards robotaxis instead.
Following disappointing earnings and a decline in vehicle deliveries, Elon Musk announced plans to unveil robotaxis in August, aiming to boost Tesla’s fortunes.
The company’s Full Self-Driving technology is a key component, although it faces challenges and lawsuits.
Musk’s vision includes removing human controls from vehicles to enable autonomous cab services, despite previous unmet promises, Business Insider reported.
