NonprofitNewsFeed.comSWAT Raid On Cop City Bail Fund Organizers Criticized By ActivistsThe Atlanta Solidarity Fund, a nonprofit that offers bail and legal support to activists, has seen three of its board members arrested on charges of “money laundering” and “charity fraud,” according to reporting by The Intercept and others. The arrests were carried out by the Atlanta Police Department SWAT and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. The fund, part of the registered nonprofit Network for Strong Communities, also provides grants for anti-repression work in Atlanta. This incident marks the first time bail funds and legal support groups, traditionally important in social justice movements, have been targeted in this manner. The impact of these arrests on the operation of the fund and the larger legal ramifications for similar organizations remain uncertain, but the arrests, which involved armored vehicles and a helicopter, were seen as an attempt at intimidation by activists.——-Whole Whale is a B Corp digital agency that leverages data and technology to increase the impact of organizations.

Seven states hold primaries on Tuesday, including Iowa, where three Democrats are competing to challenge longtime Republican U. S. Sen. Chuck Grassley. One of those vying for that chance is former Rep. Abby Finkenauer, who defeated a Republican incumbent in 2018 and then served in the U. S. House of Representatives for just one term before losing her reelection bid two years ago. Now, at age 33, Finkenauer is facing a tougher-than-expected U. S. Senate primary in a state that has become more of a GOP stronghold in the last decade. Finkenauer regularly points out generational differences between her and Grassley, who is 88 years old, when talking on the campaign trail about issues like abortion rights, college debt and gun restrictions. On the day after the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, Finkenauer made a campaign stop in the Mississippi River town of Dubuque. She talked about how she’s lived most of her life with school shootings happening in America.”I was 10 years old when Columbine happened,” Finkenauer said to a small crowd gathered at Dimensional Brewing. “Sen. Grassley had already been in Washington, D. C., at that point for 23 years.”She told the crowd they already know where she stands on guns, like when she “proudly voted for H. R. 8 closing the background check loophole and also supporting red flag laws.”Voters like Tom Townesend want Finkenauer back in Washington. He introduced her at the Dubuque campaign stop.”The whole time she was in Congress she was working on issues that are important to building trades,” said Townesend, who is with a local electrical workers union. “She has always been a great friend to union people.”But Finkenauer has had some setbacks in this race. She almost didn’t make it onto the primary ballot after a pair of Republican activists challenged her nominating petitions. It went all the way up to the Iowa Supreme Court. Also, one of her two opponents is staying competitive in his fundraising numbers. Retired Navy Adm. Mike Franken served in the military for nearly 40 years and came back to Iowa ahead of the 2020 election and ran unsuccessfully for his party’s nomination in a different U. S. Senate race. The 64-year-old says he decided to throw his hat in the ring again, for this contest, following the insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021.”Having worked overseas and defended the American way of life and worked for this country so hard, I thought as life becomes more compressed over the age of 60, things that you do are more meaningful,” Franken said. “I can’t think of anything more meaningful than to provide my expertise to maintain democracy in this country, because I saw it under threat.”Al Simon is voting for Franken. Simon came to see Franken take questions from voters about foreign policy at an event in Des Moines last week. He thinks Franken is better equipped to beat Grassley.”I think Grassley’s been there too long,” Simon said.All data is taken from the source: http://npr.orgArticle Link: https://www.npr.org/2022/06/07/1103363218/iowa-senate-democratic-primary-finkenauer-franken-grassley#finkenauer #newscast #bbcnewstoday #usnewsworldreport#newstodayinusa #newsworldnow #

The press is calling it the summer of ‘revenge travel’ and the statistics make the point—despite travelers’ fears of inflation, Covid and safety, and despite huge staff shortages in the travel and hospitality industry—people are on the move. And across the region, many European countries have relaxed travel restrictions but throughout most of May, some of the biggest—France, Spain, Italy and Germany—had severe restrictions in place. However, from 1 June, Italy and Germany are removing travel restrictions, at least temporarily. German Health Minister, Karl Lauterbach, announced that the 3G rule to enter the country would be suspended until September. The 3G rule currently demands that travelers present a valid vaccination, recovery, or test certificate in order to enter the country—a view will be taken after the summer season regarding Covid infection rates. The country still has a clause in place that travelers arriving from an “area of virus variant” would still need to enter quarantine for 14 days but there are currently no countries on this list. However, there is a clause in the new law that means this mostly applies to people who are coming from the EU/EEA or a safe list country or those that are considered fully vaccinated. However, for the summer, Germany is recognising vaccines that are on the WHO emergency use list—as well as those vaccines that have been approved for use in the EU. So this adds people who have had CoronaVac, Sinopharm BIBP and Covaxin, for example.14 days must have passed after a second dose to be counted as fully vaccinated and a booster is required after a further 9 months to keep the status active. The Italian ministry of Health announced that it would not be renewing the requirement that expires on 31 May for travelers to show a vaccination, recovery or test certificate upon arrival, regardless of country of origin or departure. It had already scrapped the need for filling in a Passenger Locator Form on 31 May. Spain and France still have some bureaucracy in place. Spain is now open to unvaccinated travelers with testing as is France—up-to-date rules for entering France can be found here.All data is taken from the source: http://forbes.comArticle Link: https://www.forbes.com/sites/alexledsom/2022/06/01/europe-travel-2-remaining-big-guns-drop-travel-restrictions-for-june/#country #newsmusic #kingworldnews #newstodayupdate #bbcnewstoday #newstodayusa #
