Fox News: Ex-Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy pleads for civil political discourse, warns 'democracy is at risk'
Former U.S. Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy expressed concern that the current tone of political discourse and threats against judges are undermining the U.S. as a model of democracy. He emphasized the need to protect judges and their families, warning that divisive identity politics threaten civil discourse and democracy itself.
Kennedy's remarks coincided with rising threats against judges, particularly those who have ruled against the Trump administration. Other judges at the forum echoed his concerns, highlighting the impact of disinformation and hostility towards the judiciary, which they believe is reaching alarming levels.
GB News: ‘I suspect the Labour rebellion is not just about the welfare bill’, says Nigel Farage
In Britain, one in ten working-age individuals claims a sickness or disability benefit, with an alarming increase of 100,000 claims daily. The annual cost is currently £75 billion and projected to reach £100 billion by 2030, prompting the Chancellor and Prime Minister to seek cuts.
This move has sparked significant dissent among Labour backbenchers, with around 136 in open revolt. The Prime Minister is reportedly adjusting his schedule to address concerns, including expediting funds to assist those returning to work, but it remains unclear if these measures will quell the unrest within his party.

Le Monde: Japan executes 'Twitter killer' who killed nine people he met online
Japan executed Takahiro Shiraishi, known as the "Twitter killer," on June 27, marking the first death penalty enactment since 2022. Shiraishi was convicted of murdering and dismembering nine young victims he lured via social media, targeting those expressing suicidal thoughts.
Justice Minister Keisuke Suzuki emphasized the brutality of Shiraishi's crimes, which included robbery, rape, and mutilation. Despite arguments for a lesser sentence based on the victims' consent, the court deemed his actions "cunning and cruel." Japan remains one of the few G7 nations to uphold capital punishment, with public support for the practice.
