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.

Similar protests have been seen at Columbia University and other campuses across the US.
According to the student-run newspaper Washington Square News, police officers used megaphones to order protestors to disperse or face arrest.
Riot gear-clad police lined up at Gould Plaza’s rear and detained those who didn’t comply, the U.S. Sun 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.

Bitcoin Halving Event Triggers Concerns Amid Price Surge Expectations
The recent bitcoin halving event, occurring approximately every four years, automatically reduced the issuance of the cryptocurrency by half.
This technical adjustment affects bitcoin miners who validate transactions, cutting their rewards in half after every 210,000 blocks added to the blockchain.
The event historically triggers significant price rallies for bitcoin, preceding bull runs and attracting new investors to the market.
With numerous miners, both public and private, constantly processing transactions to earn bitcoin, the halving directly impacts their rewards.
Despite the initial reduction in rewards, the subsequent price surges typically help miners offset losses, CNBC reported.

Ecuadorians head to polls for referendum as Noboa seeks backing for war on crime
Over 13 million Ecuadorians are anticipated to participate in a referendum on Sunday, focusing on security issues that could influence the political trajectory of President Daniel Noboa and his crime-fighting agenda.
Noboa, who assumed office last November, pledged to tackle the escalating crime rates in Ecuador.
He has since pursued an aggressive approach, declaring war on criminal gangs, imposing a state of emergency, and approving a controversial raid on the Mexican embassy to apprehend a former vice president accused of corruption.
The outcome of the referendum will gauge public support for Noboa’s policies and may impact his decision on seeking re-election in 2025, CNN reported.

Marjorie Taylor Greene calls on Johnson to resign after foreign aid bills pass
Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene expressed her dissatisfaction with House Speaker Mike Johnson on Sunday, accusing him of betraying Republican voters by supporting new aid to Ukraine.
Greene called for Johnson’s resignation, threatening to initiate a vote to remove him from the speakership if he refuses to step down.
Despite Johnson’s collaboration with Democrats to advance a $95 billion foreign aid package, Greene and at least two other Republicans have vowed to support his ouster.
Johnson, however, remains confident, believing he can rely on Democratic support to thwart any motion against him.
Democrats like Rep. Ro Khanna have indicated they would oppose removing Johnson, emphasizing that political decisions should not always be transactional, CNN reported.

Graham: Ukraine Aid ‘Would Not Have Passed Without Donald Trump’
Senator Lindsey Graham emphasized on “Fox News Sunday” that the aid package for Ukraine, spearheaded by Speaker Mike Johnson, wouldn’t have succeeded in the House without former President Donald Trump’s assistance.
Graham highlighted the crucial role of U.S. support in bolstering Ukraine’s military capabilities, noting the significant impact it has had on combating Russian forces.
He underscored the importance of providing Ukraine with advanced weaponry to enhance its defense, including ATACMS missiles and F-16 fighter jets.
Graham credited Trump for contributing to the passage of the aid package, particularly through the inclusion of a loan component, which grants leverage for future engagements, Breitbart News reported.

With homelessness on the rise, Supreme Court to weigh bans on sleeping outdoors
The Supreme Court is set to deliberate on whether prohibiting homeless individuals from sleeping outdoors when shelter space is unavailable constitutes cruel and unusual punishment.
This case holds immense significance as homelessness reaches unprecedented levels in the United States.
In states like California, courts have already deemed it unconstitutional to penalize individuals for sleeping in homeless encampments when no shelter is accessible.
While some officials argue such measures are necessary to manage encampments, many advocacy groups assert that criminalizing homelessness will exacerbate the crisis.
The Justice Department has also weighed in, advocating against punishing individuals solely for sleeping outside unless there is clear evidence of alternative options, The Hill reported.
