Biden Urges Supreme Court Overhaul

President Biden on Monday urged Congress to enact reforms that will overhaul the Supreme Court and to ratify a constitutional amendment that limits presidential immunity.

Under Biden’s proposed plans, Supreme Court justices would be subjected to 18-year term limits and be held to a strict code of ethics. He also called for the removal of protections of presidents from federal criminal charges.

Congressional leaders say there's little chance that Biden’s suggested reforms will gain traction over the opposition of the Republican majority in the House.

France Hit by Sabotage Again

Fiber optic cables in several French regions were cut on Monday night in what appears to be a coordinated act of sabotage, affecting multiple telecom operators.

This incident follows recent arson attacks on France's high-speed rail networks, raising concerns about security threats during the Paris Olympic Games.

While no group claimed responsibility for the act, Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin suggested that far-left French anarchists might be linked to the train sabotage, though investigations are ongoing.

List: Top Family-Friendly U.S. Cities

The research analyzed 323 cities based on factors including affordability, safety, and available family activities.

Florida emerged as a particularly family-friendly state, with three cities—Clearwater, Orlando, and Cape Coral—ranking in the top five.

Financial advisors often overlook gold due to conflicts of interest, prioritizing assets that generate ongoing fees or commissions. Once you own gold, there are no recurring fees or commissions for advisors to gain from, making it less appealing from their perspective. However, as an investor focused on long-term stability and diversification, gold should not be overlooked.
