This newsletter is part of Times Opinion’s Giving Guide 2024. Read more in a note from Times Opinion’s editor, Kathleen Kingsbury. For this year’s Giving Guide, I’m suggesting three organizations that help people make the treacherous leap from school, unemployment or underemployment to rewarding work. Last spring, I wrote a pair of newsletters and recorded a podcast about college students and grad students who were trying without success to land jobs after graduation. There’s a powerful financial motive on both sides to match available people with available jobs.

CNN —Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans defended Azeez Al-Shaair after the linebacker was ejected from Sunday’s game for throwing a late hit on Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence. And now you’re a defender, a lot of onus is on the defender, right?”Ryans added, “Unfortunately, Trevor got hurt.

But remarkably, Metcalf made a full recovery, declaring for the 2019 NFL Draft in which he was selected by the Seattle Seahawks with the final pick of the second round. But despite his impressive showing, Metcalf fell to the second round of the NFL Draft where the Seahawks selected him with the 64th overall pick – the ninth receiver taken overall.

☆ Opinion | Yes, Most People Probably Should Hold Off on Claiming Social Security
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-15 | by ( Peter Coy | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +2 min

Many readers said that while they didn’t absolutely need to start collecting Social Security early, they calculated that they would come out ahead by investing some or all of their checks in the stock market rather than waiting. I agree with Peggy Bishop that some people simply have to collect Social Security at the first opportunity. They don’t have enough savings to tide them over to age 70 without Social Security. Saying you should delay claiming Social Security when possible is not the same as saying you should keep working past the breaking point of body and soul. Readers brought up other cases where claiming early might be the right decision, although it’s impossible to generalize.

The three-way fight to replace outgoing Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., pits Senate Minority Whip John Thune, R-S.D., against Sen. John Cornyn, a former McConnell deputy, and underdog candidate Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla. “It’s a loud online presence that doesn’t ultimately add up to votes in the Senate,” said one Senate Republican aide, who requested anonymity to speak candidly about the race’s dynamics. He supported me in 2022 in my run against Mitch McConnell,” Scott said. “The Senate Republicans — particularly Senate Republican leadership — must understand that the American people put President Trump back in the White House with his America First agenda. And any Republican leader candidate who does not agree with that should get the hell out of the way," he said.

Trump is also wary of special elections to replace sitting lawmakers, especially in the Senate. has conveyed that he is not interested in entering the Trump administration, according to three sources familiar with the decision. Sessions, an adviser to Trump in 2016, was one of his earliest supporters when Trump elevated him from the Senate to run his Justice Department. The special election to replace him also turned into a centerpiece of Democratic organizing against Trump. Though the GOP won the special election narrowly, Republicans lost Price's congressional seat in the midterms and then watched Georgia turn blue in 2020.

But the balance of the evidence from the NBC News Exit Poll suggests that Trump owes his victory to more common, less polarizing factors that drive many elections year in and year out. That included a striking shift of Latino voters into the GOP column compared with 2020 — they backed Trump by 13 points more. Women broke for Harris, 54%-44%, while men favored Trump, 54%-44% — a gap in support amounting to 22 percentage points. But in 2020, Trump performed even worse among women, losing them to Biden 57%-42%. A final factor favoring Trump: his appeal among Americans who are less attached to politics and elections:

He also spoke candidly about his acting career, his time in foster homes as a child and, briefly, his relationship with singer Sabrina Carpenter. “People kind of have a judgment on me as a parent,” said Keoghan, who shares a 2-year-old son named Brando with his ex-partner. “I’m like, well until you’ve walked a day in my shoes growing up as a kid, then you can comment… There’s a lot online.

Moments later, Coy said Hill walked up a driveway and loudly banged on the home’s front door, but nobody answered and no lights were visible. “My intention was to go toward the back of the house,” Coy testified, but he changed his mind when he saw a light flicker in the garage. Hill walked out, holding a lit cellphone in his left hand, but his body was turned and Coy couldn’t see his right side. Thinking the phone was a distraction, Coy thought he saw Hill holding a revolver with his left hand and fired four shots. “I said, ‘f---,’ I knew at that point that I had made a mistake,” Coy testified.

☆ Opinion | Trump’s Tariff Plan Makes Little Sense
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-26 | by ( Peter Coy | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

It seems perverse that Donald Trump would single out Canada and Mexico, two of the United States’ closest allies, for higher tariffs. It makes little sense to set off a tariff tit-for-tat with two countries that are both near and friends. Trump also vowed higher tariffs on China, citing its production of precursor chemicals for fentanyl. The United States gets 60 percent of its imported oil from Canada, along with cars, machinery and wood products. And the United States would lose exports if those nations retaliated with tariffs of their own.

A Black man who was fatally shot four years ago by a now-fired white police officer in Columbus, Ohio, complied with commands and was wrongly killed as he walked out of a garage, prosecutors said Thursday. “Officer Coy was not justified in shooting Andre Hill,” prosecutor Renee Amlin told the jury. Hill then walked toward the officers while holding his cellphone when Coy fired his weapon. Detweiler said she and Coy walked toward the dark garage and had “no idea” why Hill was inside it. Columbus Mayor Andrew Ginther has said the shooting was unwarranted and that officers on the scene failed to provide medical assistance.
