Fox News: SEN JOHN KENNEDY: Why SCOTUS should seize opportunity to eliminate universal injunctions
SEN JOHN KENNEDY: Why SCOTUS should seize opportunity to eliminate universal injunctions
The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments on May 15 regarding the power of district court judges to issue universal injunctions, which halt federal policies nationwide. This practice, which has grown in frequency, allows individual judges to override laws and regulations without thorough legal scrutiny.

Critics argue that universal injunctions undermine the judicial process and grant excessive power to a single judge, potentially destabilizing the government and judicial system. Both Democratic and Republican officials have called for the Supreme Court to end this practice, emphasizing its detrimental impact on legal decision-making.

A public radio station in Western North Carolina, Blue Ridge Public Radio (BPR), faces potential funding cuts due to an executive order from the Trump administration aimed at halting federal support for NPR and PBS.

They urge listeners to support the station through donations to maintain vital local news coverage.

The Telegraph: Death of the last maverick mercenary may herald something far worse for Africa
Death of the last maverick mercenary may herald something far worse for Africa
Simon Mann, the former mercenary who died at 72, was emblematic of a bygone era of white mercenaries in Africa. His failed "Wonga Coup" in 2004 seemed outdated, yet his legacy persists as foreign mercenaries are now more prevalent than ever on the continent.

The rise of groups like the Russian Wagner Group, along with increasing numbers of Turkish, Chinese, and potentially American mercenaries, indicates a shift in the landscape. While some claim to be private military contractors, their roles in training armies and counterinsurgency operations continue to evolve, though few match the flair of Mann's generation.

Le Monde: Gérard Depardieu also convicted over 'secondary victimization' charges
Gérard Depardieu also convicted over 'secondary victimization' charges
Gérard Depardieu was convicted by a Paris court for sexual assaults, receiving an 18-month suspended sentence and ordered to pay compensation to his victims. Notably, the court recognized "secondary victimization," requiring Depardieu to pay €1,000 to each victim for harm suffered during the trial.

This ruling marks a significant acknowledgment of secondary victimization in France, aligning with the European Court of Human Rights' stance since 2015 that judicial processes can inflict additional suffering on victims of sexual violence.
