Federal Judges Aren't Subject To Workplace Harassment Laws
NPR found that dozens of federal judges failed to disclose privately-funded travel to exclusive, often partisan events in exotic locales. And employees in the federal judiciary do not enjoy the same legal protections against workplace discrimination and harassment that cover most U.S. workers, which can help foster a hostile workplace environment.

How House Republicans Are Responding To Campus Protests
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson visited Columbia University with fellow members of the House Republican conference and met with students who said they felt unsafe on campus in the midst of protests calling on the university to shed its investments related to Israel. Now, Johnson is moving forward with legislation aimed at combating campus antisemitism — though some Democrats are criticizing the effort as a political stunt that could curb legitimate criticism of the Israeli government.

Can Arizona GOP Prevent Dem Surge By Allowing Some Abortions?

The move is an apparent effort to blunt the power of a November abortion access ballot measure that strategists say could spark a Democratic wave election in the state.

Tick-Tock, TikTok: What Makes It A National Security Threat
After a series of classified national security briefings, Congress passed a law that will ban TikTok if it is not sold by its Chinese parent company. It is not clear what specific risks they're reacting to, but experts point to a widespread, if ineffectual, state-backed disinformation effort and other data-privacy concerns.

Weekly Roundup: Hush Money, Pocket Money
The first week of testimony in Donald Trump's criminal trial in New York centered on David Packer, the tabloid mogul who says he helped quash stories in order to benefit the then-candidate's presidential bid. And in a Pennsylvania county where voters expressed concerns about inflation ahead of the 2022 midterms, people say they're still frustrated by high prices but that the economy is not necessarily the top factor in who they'll vote for come November.

Customer Reviews
it’s goood but from far away
from far away the new cover art looks like a vacuum cleaner
Meh
I have had this on my list so I can keep up with general events, but it’s just not impressive. The reporting is surface level and uninteresting.
I listen to left, right, and center podcasts, but weeding this one out because it’s mediocre.
Communist Propaganda
NPR should not receive public assistance. It mirrors Pravda in its mission to support the administrative state. It isn’t objective and should have to make it on its own.
