I would have never guessed that being single, juggling my career, graduate school, and parenting two toddlers would be stamped on my bingo card. As a single mom of two, every achievement feels even sweeter. Graduating with a Master's of Social Work from the University of Texas at Arlington with two toddlers feels more than a personal achievement. As a first-generation high school and college graduate, I knew obtaining another degree would be challenging. When my children napped, I scheduled work blocks to focus on work calls and client updates.

The nine members of the Supreme Court peered over a precipice. They could apply their two-year-old gun-rights precedent, as a lower court had, and declare unconstitutional a federal law aimed at keeping guns out of the hands of individuals under court-issued restraining orders for domestic violence. If they endorsed such an extreme outcome, they knew, they would be taking down not only a 30-year-old law but also perhaps even the court itself, already at a near low in public esteem. But it’s impossible to see the outcome in United States v. Rahimi as anything other than an exercise in institutional self-preservation. While Chief Justice John Roberts’s majority opinion garnered eight votes, five members of his majority felt impelled to express their own contrasting if not exactly conflicting views in separate opinions.

As a single mom, a big reason I became a teacher was so that I would be on the same schedule as my son. I wanted to spend as much time with my son as possible, but I was also on a budget. After the monthly bills, I didn't have a lot of money left over for extracurriculars or expensive trips during our summer breaks. Courtesy Ashley ArchambaultI took friends up on generous offers to give my son summer vacationsIn order to travel a little farther, I looked again to our loved ones. My son got to fly on a plane, go canoeing on the lake, and camp out in a tent.

CNN —The Almighty won’t be standing on stage alongside Joe Biden on Thursday night. Biden’s campaign laid the groundwork for the Atlanta showdown hosted by CNN in a weekend memo. If Trump rants and vents his 2020 election lies on Thursday, he will play into Biden’s hands. That could avoid the mayhem of the first Trump v. Biden debate in 2020. His campaign has spent days trying to roll back his expectations of Biden as a doddering, elderly president who can’t string two words together.

The Vanishing Islands That Failed to Vanish Low-lying tropical island nations were expected to be early victims of rising seas. They found that over the past few decades, the islands’ edges had wobbled this way and that, eroding here, building there. No, to understand what really beguiles them about these islands, you need to take a dive into the surrounding sea.

But the figure of former President Jacob Zuma and his new political party uMkhonto – or simply “MK” – provoked more reaction. Jerome Delay/APMoreover, according to Herman, pro-Zuma conspiracy theories and propaganda, some with Russian fingerprints, had been flooding South African social media in the lead-up to the election. And even as Zuma takes pages from Trump’s playbook, South Africans may be telling a different narrative. Facing pressure, Zuma resigned as South African president in 2018. Though some South Africans still admire the US’ capitalist spirit, I find that the South African friends who visit me in the US don’t always feel at ease anymore.

The billionaire entrepreneur noted that Turth Social is tiny compared to other social media. AdvertisementTrump Media's stock price is "absurdly out of the realm of normal business," according to LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman. Trump Media is worth just a fraction of LinkedIn, which was bought out for $26 billion in 2016. For reference, TMTG made just $4.1 million last year and lost $58 million, according to its financial statements. "Trump Media is probably more appropriately valued close to $40 million rather than several billion."

The book's title in the UK was "French Children Don't Throw Food," summing up her observation that they were better behaved because of the less angsty approach. She said it was unusual for French parents to track their adolescents' location using the GPS on their phones. In contrast, French parents spent almost an hour less "together time" with their kids in 2020 than they did 55 years earlier. The mom added that French parents ensure that they are not defined as such. If you'd like to share it with Business Insider, please send details to jridley@businessinsider.com.

CNN —Tesla has issued two recalls on the Cybertruck, its third and fourth, since the model was introduced late last year. An investigation by Tesla revealed that the piece had not been properly installed. Cybertruck owners will be asked to bring their trucks to a Tesla service center where the trim piece will either be replaced or installed properly with “adhesion promotor” and pressure sensitive tape. The trucks are also being recalled for a separate issue in the electric motor that powers the truck’s single huge windshield wiper. Tesla has previously recalled the Cybertruck for other issues.

CNN —Federal Judge Aileen Cannon said Tuesday she had “a hard time seeing” any problems with the warrant the FBI obtained to search former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in the summer of 2022. Trump’s attorney Emil Bove had argued that the warrant was overly broad and unjustly allowed agents to search the entire Mar-a-Lago premises. Bove, like in other recent hearings in the classified documents case, wants the judge to hold even more hearings that could probe into the investigators’ work. “They purported to look for classified documents in a gym and a kitchen,” he added. Investigators say they found classified documents in various places at the resort, including a public ballroom, a bathroom and a bedroom.

What to Know About Julian Assange and His Plea Deal
  + stars: | 2024-06-25 | by ( Glenn Thrush | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Julian Assange spent his youth in Australia during the 1980s in a state of chaotic, perpetual motion. It would eventually place him on the edge of global disruption in an era of backlash against the national security and political establishments. This week, Mr. Assange, the 52-year-old founder of WikiLeaks, boarded a private jet from London for the long flight to a U.S. courtroom in Saipan. He is expected to plead guilty early Wednesday to a single count of illegally obtaining and disseminating national security information. Mr. Assange is expected to be freed immediately, after the U.S. Justice Department agreed to accept the five years he has already served at Belmarsh prison in Britain.
