  • 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.

Quick Glance: Moscow Court Upholds Extension of Detention for Reporter Evan Gershkovich
  • Following the rejection of Evan Gershkovich's appeal, a reporter for the Wall Street Journal, he will remain in custody on espionage charges until at least late June.

  • Detained in late March 2023 during a reporting trip, the 32-year-old US citizen has spent over a year in prison, with his detention being regularly prolonged and his appeals being turned down.

  • Experts suggest that Moscow might be leveraging jailed Americans as leverage in the escalating tensions between the US and Russia due to the Kremlin's military operation in Ukraine.

  • Gershkovich's arrest marks the first time since September 1986 that an American reporter has been detained in Russia on espionage charges, when Nicholas Daniloff, a Moscow correspondent for U.S. News and World Report, was apprehended by the KGB.

Quick Glance: Fact Check: Biden Repeats Claim of Arrest for Defending Civil Rights. Still No Evidence
  • President Joe Biden reiterated his story of allegedly trying to defend the civil rights of Black Americans on 'The Howard Stern Show.' However, there is no evidence to support his claim of ever being arrested at a civil rights protest, as noted by 'The Washington Post' and 'PolitiFact.'

  • Biden has told the story of his supposed presence at a specific protest in Delaware at least twice without mentioning an arrest. He stated that the police simply took him home on that day.

  • It is impossible to prove definitively whether Biden was present at this or a similar protest over 60 years ago. He has also made other false claims about his personal life in the past.

  • Biden falsely claimed to have 'driven an 18-wheeler' and that he never earned $400,000 in a year. During his 2020 presidential campaign, he claimed to have been 'arrested' as a US senator while trying to visit South African anti-apartheid icon Nelson Mandela in prison, which turned out to be untrue.

Hearing before the US Supreme Court: Does Trump enjoy immunity?
Quick Glance: Trump's Disregard for Democratic Principles
  • Donald Trump's claim of absolute immunity for criminal acts as president is an assault on common sense and a perversion of the fundamental principle of American democracy.

  • The Supreme Court's decision to take the case may delay the former president's trial and deprive the public of the right to know if he attempted to undermine the sacred process of presidential succession.

  • The Supreme Court's direct intervention in the 2024 presidential election deprives voters of critical information and could lead to a constitutional crisis if Trump is re-elected and convicted.

  • The notion that the president is above the law and can pardon himself is a radical contempt for republican government, revealing Trump's vision of unchecked royal power.

  • The bond is meant to secure Trump's compliance with a $454.2 million judgment won by state Attorney General Letitia James if he does not succeed in an appeal.

  • James had challenged the bond this month, saying Trump still had access to the Charles Schwab account pledged to the insurer as collateral.

  • Justice Arthur Engoron imposed the penalty after finding that Trump fraudulently inflated his net worth and real estate assets to deceive banks and insurers into providing better terms.

  • Trump defended the bond in court, emphasizing that he has plenty of money to put up for it.

  • ByteDance would prefer to cease TikTok operations rather than engage in a sale if all legal avenues are exhausted to combat potential legislation banning the platform in US app stores, as per four sources.

  • Despite TikTok's massive popularity with over a billion users, it remains unprofitable, contributing a small fraction to ByteDance's overall revenues and daily active user base.

  • ByteDance stated on Thursday in a release on Toutiao, a media platform it possesses, that there are no intentions to sell TikTok, in response to claims from The Information about ByteDance exploring sale scenarios for TikTok's US operations excluding the recommending algorithm for user videos.

  • As of December, ByteDance's valuation stood at $268 billion when it proposed a buyback of approximately $5 billion in shares from investors.
