Quick Glance: US implements ban on worker 'competition agreements' with business groups filing lawsuits

The U.S. Federal Trade Commission has approved a framework to eliminate agreements often signed by employees to refrain from joining their employers' competitors or establishing rival businesses.

The ban on noncompete agreements is projected to boost worker earnings by up to $488 billion over the next decade and facilitate the establishment of over 8,500 new businesses annually.

Prominent business associations have criticized the framework and declared legal actions, contending that noncompete agreements assist companies in safeguarding trade secrets and advancing competitiveness.

Unions have endorsed the FTC's vote in favor of the ban, hailing it as a significant triumph for workers that will enhance the national economy by fostering entrepreneurship.

The city of San Francisco, once seen as the shining star of the West Coast, is now on the verge of collapse, with seemingly no one raising the alarm.

In particular, the city's housing market has been severely impacted over the past year, with prices plummeting and homeowners fleeing en masse.

Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, did not hold back in his comparison of San Francisco's issues to those of New York City, stating that the Bay Area is 'in far worse shape.'

San Francisco is failing in all aspects, leading to a quiet collapse of its housing market, where once luxurious properties are now being offered at significant discounts.

Donald Trump: How he becomes the star of a political thriller: A criminal trial that would make screenwriters green with envy begins in New York ...

Quick Glance: Twelve Jurors Seated in Trump's Hush Money Trial

A jury of 12 individuals was empaneled on Thursday in the landmark hush money trial of former President Donald Trump, bringing the proceedings closer to opening arguments and the commencement of weeks filled with compelling testimonies.

The upcoming trial is anticipated to present unfavorable testimonies regarding Trump's personal life pre-presidency, including accusations of manipulating business records to suppress narratives in the final days of the 2016 election surrounding his intimate relationships.

Central to the trial is a payment of $130,000 made by Cohen just before the 2016 election to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, aimed at preventing her allegations of a sexual encounter with Trump from being publicized in the campaign's final stretch.

The selection of the jury holds paramount significance in any criminal proceeding, particularly so when the accused is a former president and the presumed Republican candidate. Potential jurors have undergone extensive scrutiny concerning their online presence, personal backgrounds, and political stances as legal representatives and the judge meticulously scrutinize for partialities that could compromise their impartiality.

Antonio Scurati: 'In Italy, the post-fascist group in power has chosen to rewrite history'

Quick Glance: Italian Fascist History Being Rewritten

Writer Antonio Scurati speaks out against the post-fascist group in Italy for distorting history and attempting to rewrite the past.

The murder of Giacomo Matteotti in 1924 and the Nazi-fascist massacres of 1944 are highlighted as examples of systematic political violence and massacre by fascism.

It is noted that the post-fascist group in Italy, after the 2022 elections, chose to rewrite history instead of denying their neo-fascist past.

The council president, during commemorations, avoids addressing the regime's atrocities, fails to deny the fascist experience entirely, and omits mentioning 'anti-fascism'.

Quick Glance: Arizona Republicans foil another effort to repeal 1864 abortion ban

Arizona House Republicans once again thwarted an attempt on Wednesday to repeal the state's nearly complete abortion ban from 1864, leaving Democrats without a vote on their repeal bill for the second consecutive week.

Despite facing pressure from influential conservatives, such as former President Trump and Senate hopeful Kari Lake, urging GOP leaders to lift the ban, the Republicans blocked the repeal.

State House Democrats made a procedural maneuver to attempt to suspend House rules and bring the repeal bill to the floor for discussion. However, this action was rejected by the GOP majority, with only one Republican, Representative Matt Gress, crossing party lines to support bringing up the repeal bill.

A similar endeavor to repeal the ban was obstructed by Republicans last week. Following persistent criticism of the law by Democrats both within and outside the state throughout the week, prominent figures like Trump and Lake recognized the political risks and advocated for a change in direction within the Legislature.

Quick Glance: Former US Ambassador Sentenced for Spying for Cuba

Former US ambassador Manuel Rocha was sentenced to 15 years in prison after admitting to working as a secret agent for Cuba for decades.

Rocha accepted the penalty and paid a $500,000 fine after pleading guilty to acting on behalf of a foreign government.

The swift criminal case avoided a trial that would have revealed the extent of Rocha's assistance to Cuba while working for the US State Department for twenty years.

The sophistication of Cuban intelligence services was highlighted as Rocha's double-crossing went undetected for years, demonstrating his secret meetings with Cuban operatives and provision of false information to US officials.
