  • 'If You Can Keep It': The End Of The Supreme Court's Term

    'If You Can Keep It': The End Of The Supreme Court's Term
    Jul 1 2024
    Going into the beginning of July, we take stock of the Supreme Court's recent term, including a rush of a dozen cases it released in the last week.

    The Supreme Court considered controversial topics this summer, including Donald Trump and presidential immunity, charges against Jan. 6 rioters, emergency abortion care, gun rights for people with a history of domestic violence, interactions between the government and social media companies, and the discretion that federal agencies can have in implementing laws.

    As part of our weekly politics series "If You Can Keep It," we hear from our legal experts about what the court's decisions mean for the country and for the stakes of this election.

  • The News Roundup For June 28, 2024

    The News Roundup For June 28, 2024
    Jun 28 2024
    President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump meet in Atlanta, Georgia for a memorable debate.

    The Supreme Court temporarily blocks the Environmental Protection Agency's "Good Neighbor Plan" and blocks the multibillion Purdue opioid settlement, finding it inappropriately protected the Sackler family. And the Court sides with the Biden Administration in a challenge to Idaho's strict abortion ban.

    Meanwhile, Bolivia foils a military coup attempt. Army General Juan José Zúñiga is arrested hours after he led troops and tanks to storm the presidential palace in the capital, La Paz.

    In Kenya, protests resume a day after President Ruto makes a dramatic U-turn and withdraws contentious tax hikes.

    And Israel warns it can send Lebanon "back to the Stone Age" as the United Nations humanitarian affairs chief warns a conflict would be "potentially apocalyptic."

    We cover all this and more during this week's News Roundup.

  • Ask A Grillmaster

    Ask A Grillmaster
    Jun 28 2024
    Since the dawn of mankind, humans have been have been taking food to fire.

    After thousands of years — and probably tons of really awful woolly mammoth meat — we've learned to make grilling taste good.

    With summer here and summer holidays just around the corner, it's almost impossible to head outside and not catch a whiff of a grill somewhere.

    But the world of grilling has gone through a lot of innovation since our ancestors first held ingredients to the sacred fire.

    We're here to help you make sense of it all. For our latest installment of our "Ask A..." series, we're asking grillmasters all about their craft and answering your questions.
