CNN —Sometime in late April, the Jewish cemetery in upstate New York where both of my parents are buried was vandalized. For now, the perpetrators remain unknown, though their motivation seems obvious to everyone in the Jewish community, near and far. Elizabeth Rosner Tora SmartRecently, CNN reported that nearly 180 gravestones at two Jewish cemeteries in Cincinnati were vandalized. Having been immersed in my highly autobiographical pages for two semesters, the students ask me questions that are respectful yet probingly intimate. For now, I sit with the German translation students in silence.

☆ Germany moves to ban China’s Huawei, ZTE from its 5G network
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-11 | by ( Hanna Ziady | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

London/Berlin CNN —Germany will phase out components made by China’s Huawei and ZTE from its 5G wireless network over the next five years, a move that risks worsening its already strained relations with the world’s second-largest economy. By the end of 2029, these components must also be purged from “access and transport networks,” which include the physical parts of the 5G network such as transmission lines and towers. Last week, Berlin blocked the sale of a Volkswagen subsidiary to a Chinese state-owned company on national security grounds, drawing a rebuke from Beijing. China is also locked in a trade spat with the European Union, which hiked tariffs on Chinese electric cars last month. The US also placed Huawei on a trade restriction list in 2019, which made it harder for the company to obtain semiconductor chips from American suppliers.

Those in our inner circle not only know us the best, they should also have our best interests at heart. The family members and close advisers of politicians and celebrities often depend on the politician or celebrity’s wealth and power for their own power and prestige. As age takes its toll, he’s isolating himself from everyone but those closest to him. On Monday, The Wall Street Journal published a disturbing report that described the way in which his “inner circle” had limited access to the president and concealed his true condition from the public. “The White House has limited Biden’s daily itinerary and shielded him from impromptu exchanges,” The Journal reported.

Regional bank stocks are having an underwhelming year, but investors who are on the hunt for good dividend payers might find a few gems, according to Piper Sandler. "Given the recent pullback in bank stock prices, we are finding lots of regional and community bank stocks that have eye-catching dividend yields," wrote Mark Fitzgibbon, managing director at Piper Sandler, in a Thursday report. There is more to picking solid dividend stocks than just going by the yield. Piper Sandler further whittled down the list by eliminating companies that had cut their dividends over the past decade. Piper Sandler called out Heritage Commerce of San Jose, California, as a bank worth snapping up.

▼ + stars: | 2024-07-09 | by ( Jennifer Sor | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +4 min

Bitcoin is still on track to see a major rally by the end of the year, Anthony Scaramucci said. Those catalysts include waning selling pressure, crypto repayments, and promising crypto legislation. Around 40%-50% of payouts could end up being reinvested in crypto, Scaramucci estimated, based on the loyalty many "hardcore" early bitcoin investors have. That's one promising sign bitcoin is becoming a more widely accepted storage of value, which is bullish for its long-term trajectory, Scaramucci said. Bitcoin's price has been depressed partly due to temporary selling pressure, Scaramucci said.

CNN —Columbia University announced Monday it has permanently removed three deans from their posts after finding they engaged in “very troubling” text messages that touched on antisemitic tropes. “The incident revealed behavior and sentiments that were not only unprofessional, but also, disturbingly touched on ancient antisemitic tropes,” Shafik said in the Monday statement. However, Columbia signaled that a fourth official involved in the text messages, Josef Sorett, the dean of Columbia College, is staying in power after apologizing and taking responsibility.

Social stigma for vocational studentsAmong the cacophony of commentary, some suspect the harsh public scrutiny of Jiang is rooted in social prejudice against vocational students.

CNN —As President Joe Biden’s political future hangs in the balance, many inside the White House – still rattled by the president’s disastrous debate performance last month – are now gripped with anxiety and unease about whether Biden will continue his reelection campaign. Inside the White House, where TV screens are always on and set to four cable news channels – CNN, MSNBC, Fox and CNBC – the devastating headlines casting doubt on Biden’s political future have been unavoidable. In the tumultuous days since the debate, many senior administration officials have had check-ins with their teams and individual direct reports, sources said. Over the weekend, there was one widely discussed topic of intrigue: the identity of one “senior White House official” who anonymously told The New York Times that they do not believe the president should continue to seek reelection. When asked about that person, one senior White House official gave CNN a brusque response: “They shouldn’t be in the White House.

The Supreme Court ruling could boost efforts by conservatives who have taken aim at the Biden Environmental Protection Agency’s rules limiting planet-warming pollution from vehicles, oil and gas wells and pipelines, and power plants. The ruling has injected legal uncertainty into regulations of all types, including those on technology, labor, the environment and health care.
