Biden Their Time

Despite expressing concerns about President Joe Biden's ability to serve a second term, most Democrats in Congress remain opposed to calling for him to drop out of the race after a closed-door meeting on Tuesday.

Biden wrote a scathing letter to party leaders urging them to refocus on former President Trump, rather than the president and his cognitive abilities. Momentum has so far languished as Democrats toe the party line.

“I'm with my dad,” New York Rep. Adriano Espaillat said, according to the Associated Press.

Joe Jonas announces single “Work It Out” and release date

Joe Jonas is returning to his solo music career.

The Jonas Brothers star, 34, took to Instagram on Wednesday (July 10) to reveal that his new single, “Work It Out,” will be released on July 19. “I'm so excited and emotional as I prepare to release new music,” he wrote in the post, with a beautiful mountain and lake view in the background. “I'm honored and grateful to have collaborated with some of my favorite musicians and creators. I hope you all feel as happy and at peace when you listen to these songs as I do.”

In March, Joe teased the upcoming release of solo music when he posted a video captioned, “If only I wasn't in the studio working on something new I'd be embodying this trend.” The next day, he responded to a fan's comment challenging him to share what he was working on with a 13-second video of his collaborators playing guitars in a recording studio.

Though Joe has been part of several musical collectives between the Jonas Brothers and DNCE, it's been 13 years since he released his only solo album, 2011's Fast Life. The Chris Brown-penned “See No More” peaked at No. 92 on the Billboard Hot 100, and the LP reached No. 15 on the Billboard 200. Jonas has since bounced back and forth between Jonas Brothers and DNCE releases, while younger brother Nick Jonas enjoyed a more consistent solo career until the brothers reunited in 2019.

Schumer plans to strip Trump of immunity following Supreme Court ruling

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York has announced plans to draft legislation that would allow former President Trump to be held accountable for his actions after the 2020 election.

Schumer said his proposed bill would classify Trump's actions challenging the results of the 2020 election as “unofficial” and strip him of the immunity granted by a recent Supreme Court decision.

The ruling, handed down July 2, concluded that the president retains effective immunity from prosecution for acts committed while in office.

“American democracy now stands at a dangerous crossroads,” Schumer said in recent remarks to the Senate floor, calling Trump's actions an “act of subversion of an election.”

“[The Supreme Court] “Former President Donald Trump falsely declared that he enjoyed broad immunity from criminal prosecution for acts he committed while in office.”

Schumer also compared Trump to former President Richard Nixon, arguing that the court agreed with Nixon's iconic defense of journalist David Frost in 1977.

“If the president does it, it's not illegal,” Schumer recalled.

“We were taught in grade school that America doesn't have kings, but what these conservative judges have done is essentially put a crown on Donald Trump's head,” he continued.

Schumer also predicted that if Trump is elected, the Supreme Court will continue to hand down “catastrophic decisions” and that January 6, 2021, will mark the beginning of chaos in the United States.

“Donald Trump and the MAGA right are opposed by the vast majority of Americans and would plunge our country into an abyss of extremism the likes of which America has never seen before,” he said.

Schumer did not respond to a request for further comment.

Brian Hughes, a senior adviser to the Trump campaign, slammed Schumer's announcement and said he, like other “Biden Democrats,” would do anything to “weaponize” the justice system against the Republican candidate.

“The unconstitutional undermining of the Supreme Court's independence is just the latest demonstration of this corrupt insanity,” Hughes said.

“The Supreme Court correctly protected the powers of not only President Donald Trump but all presidents, which are fundamental to the balance of power between the executive, legislative and judicial branches of government.”

The bill text could not yet be found on the official congressional website, but Schumer's plan was preceded by bills introduced by other leading Democrats that were likely to address Trump's actions while in office.

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), currently a candidate for the California Senate, drafted a comprehensive bill in July 2023 called the Protecting Democracy Act.

The 225-page bill addresses issues such as congressional oversight of presidential pardons, a focus on presidential “emoluments” and a section titled “Ensuring that no president is above the law.”

Another Democrat, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island, has previously drafted legislation criticizing the Supreme Court.

While announcing the bill, he said he believes the courts are “in the hands of special interests, just like the Railroad Commission in the 1890s was taken over by railroad tycoons who got their way.”

Motion Picture Academy Renews Jonas Gwanga Music Composition Program

Lefty Shivambu/Garo Images/Getty Images

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences on Wednesday (July 10) announced the second year of the Jonas Gwangwa Music Composition Initiative, a career development program for Black musicians interested in composing for film. Launching in 2022, the program will provide real-world experience, one-on-one mentoring and networking opportunities with the goal of fostering broader representation in film music composition.

The program is named in memory of the late South African jazz musician, composer and producer Jonas Gwangwa, who passed away in January 2021 at the age of 83, and was nominated for two Academy Awards, for Best Original Music and Best Original Song, for his 1987 collaboration with George Fenton, Cry Freedom.

Partners in the program are Universal Music Group's (UMG) Task Force for Meaningful Change (TFMC), Mercury Studios, Universal Music Publishing Group Classics and Screen, Decca Records and UMG's Globe.

The program is open to Black artists and composers based in the UK and US with at least three years of working experience as musicians. Four participants, two from the UK and two from the US, will be selected through an application process. Participants will enjoy a range of mentorship programs, including access to Academy members across departments to understand the filmmaking process, one-on-one mentoring with members of the Academy's music department to learn about the practical aspects of film composing, attendance at Academy events and screenings in London and Los Angeles, and introductions to leading minds across all areas of film music.

Participants will be paired with a filmmaker currently working on a short film and given the opportunity to compose the film's music. Each participant will receive a grant to support their film composing project.

“After an incredibly successful first year, the Academy is excited to embark on year two of the Jonas Gwanga Songwriting Initiative,” Kendra Carter, the Academy's senior vice president of impact and global talent development, said in a statement. “The goal of the program is to give underrepresented musicians a lasting career opportunity in the film industry. We're grateful to our partners at Universal Music Group and Academy members for their passion, dedication and expertise in making this work possible.”

“Jonas Gwangwa's life and work as an artist-activist who used music as a vehicle for social change is undeniable, and we are honored to honor him with this program,” said Dr. Menna Demesie, UMG's senior vice president and executive director of the Task Force for Meaningful Change. “This effort will continue to contribute to creating space for more diverse film composers and ultimately providing career opportunities that will advance the industry itself.”

Applications are currently being accepted for the Jonas Gwanga Music Composition Initiative. For more information, please visit the Academy's website.

Barron Trump makes campaign debut at father's Florida rally

Former President Donald Trump's youngest son made his campaign debut.

Barron Trump attended his father's rally in Doral, Florida, on Tuesday night and was met with thunderous applause as Donald praised him.

“It's the first time he's ever done that. It's the first time,” Trump said, as Barron applauded. “You're pretty popular. He might be more popular than Don or Eric. We need to talk about this. Look, Don, we need to talk about this.”

“So, Barron, I'm glad you're here. Welcome, Barron,” Trump continued. “He had a very nice, easy-going life. Things have changed a little bit now.”

The former president said Barron plans to attend college next semester and that the school is “his own choice,” but did not say where he will attend.

President Trump previously praised his 18-year-old son as a “smart kid,” adding that the former First Son likes to give his dad political advice.

“He's seen it. He doesn't need to hear it,” the presumptive 2024 Republican nominee previously told Philadelphia talk radio 1210 WPHT when asked by a host if he had advised Barron about “how awful” politics can be.

“He's smart,” Trump continued, “and you don't have to ask him much, but he's a great guy. He's a little bit tall. He's tall, obviously. But he's handsome, he's a really good student, and he loves politics.”

At one point, the boy was planning to take an active role in Republican politics as a representative of his father.

Florida Republican Party Chairman Evan Power said in May that Barron would attend the national convention as one of Florida's 41 statewide delegates, and the party plans to formally nominate Barron's father as its presidential candidate for the November general election.

However, the plan proved premature, as Barron's mother, Melania Trump, called off such plans the same month.

“Barron is honored to be selected to represent the Republican Party of Florida but unfortunately will not be able to attend due to prior commitments,” Melania Trump's office said in a statement after the announcement.

The result is a film made with so much love and dedication, and I'm so grateful to everyone who helped make this possible.”

The Killers win two Guinness World Records titles for 'Mr. Brightside' – Music News

Global record authority Guinness World Records™ has presented The Killers (USA) with two certificates ahead of their concert at London's O2 Arena on Monday night for their hit song “Mr Brightside,” which has already won two iconic Guinness World Records (GWR) titles.

The group's indie rock anthem has achieved an astounding record of spending a staggering 416 weeks in the Top 100 of the UK's Official Singles Chart as of July 4, 2024, making it the most cumulative weeks spent in the UK Singles Chart (by a single song).

The Las Vegas quartet also earned a second Guinness World Records title with the song, the longest stay in the UK singles chart by a group, also at 416 weeks. To put this longevity into perspective, the song has spent a total of almost eight years in the Top 100 across 60 separate chart appearances.

“Mr. Brightside” was first released in 2003 and re-released in 2004. The song was the first single from the band's debut album, Hot Fuss, and peaked at number 10 on June 5th, 2004. Incredibly, the song spent just one week in the top 20 during its first week of 2004, and seven weeks in the top 40.

In May 2024, the Official Charts Company revealed that the song had grossed a total of 5.57 million units (sales of 1.066 million and streams of 530.34 million), making it the biggest single to never reach number one in the UK.

The song's enduring popularity on streaming services has kept “Mr. Brightside” at the bottom of weekly countdowns for the past two decades.

Guinness World Records presented The Killers with two certificates to commemorate their record-breaking performance of the song at London's O2 Arena on Monday night, where the band is playing six massive shows as part of their Rebel Diamonds tour.

Backstage at the O2 before the show, The Killers frontman Brandon Flowers said of “Mister Brightside”: “For us, the song is still infectious. I don't think some people get it, but the reaction is clear. [when you see it live].

“It's hard not to be moved and excited. There are some people here who have never seen it live tonight and some who have seen it 45 times.

“And we never get tired of it.”

Guinness World Records Adjudicator Will Mumford said: “Mr. Brightside has packed countless dance floors and inspired countless end-of-night sing-alongs since the mid-2000s. We're honoured to present The Killers with two Guinness World Records titles for this song, which has been loved by generations and is proving its ability to stand the test of time as a timeless classic.”

For historical context, Frank Sinatra's “My Way” spent a total of 122 weeks in the Top 50 (at the time) between 1969 and 1972, and an additional two weeks in the Top 75 upon its 1994 reissue, meaning the song previously held the title for the longest cumulative number of weeks atop the UK Singles Chart (a single).

By 4 July 2024, Lewis Capaldi's “Someone You Loved” (2019) had spent 236 weeks in the UK charts (and is still charting), solidifying its second place position behind “Mr Brightside”, while Ed Sheeran's “Perfect” (2017) had spent 191 weeks in the charts and was in third place.

Prior to The Killers, the longest-serving group in the UK singles chart was Snow Patrol with their hit “Chasing Cars.” The song had spent 75 weeks in the chart as of February 2008, and by 4 July 2024 had spent a total of 166 weeks in the Top 100 of the UK singles chart.

The search has ended for a man believed to have been armed with a crossbow who murdered three women, identified as BBC commentator John Hunt's wife and two daughters, inside a suburban home in north London on Wednesday.

Hertfordshire Police said 26-year-old Kyle Clifford had been identified as a suspect in the triple murder, which is believed to have involved a crossbow or other weapon.

After an extensive search, police tracked Clifford down to the Enfield area of ​​north London.

Clifford was found injured and is currently receiving medical treatment, police said, adding that no shots were fired by officers.

“Wide range of [inquiries]”A suspect has been identified and there are no other people currently being sought in connection with this investigation,” Detective Constable Justin Jenkins, of Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit, said. “Investigations are progressing at a rapid pace and the victim has yet to be formally identified.

Caitlin Clark joked at Indiana Fever practice on Tuesday as the team prepared for Wednesday's matinee game against the Washington Mystics.

Clark was asked if anyone had reached out to her following her historic triple-double in Saturday's win over the league-leading New York Liberty.

“No. No text messages, no nothing. Nobody contacted me,” she deadpanned via Clutch Point.

Clarke has seemed to enjoy herself more as she has gained a foothold in the league. A few weeks ago, she seemed to lament the lack of advice she gets from WNBA veterans when they're on the court together.

“Nobody gives you advice during the game,” Clark said after a loss to the Seattle Storm in June. “I wish that was the case.”

Since then, Clark has been spotted frequently chatting with Phoenix Mercury legend Diana Taurasi during games and with Las Vegas Aces guard Kelsey Plum after games.

Clark and her Fever teammates also made headlines earlier this week with a TikTok video in the weight room, featuring Aaliyah Boston and Katie Lou Samuelson, as Clark struggled to lift 140 pounds during a leg workout.
