Summary

From warning labels on social media platforms to new masking laws (not what you think), and building a temporary Olympic-sized swimming pool inside a football stadium, we cover it all in this week’s SCOOP. Topics include health, politics, pop culture, law, security, immigration and history (including a quick detour to discuss Ellis Island). We even ponder what solution ChatGPT might have for fixing our nation’s borders. We arrive at a central question to consider: Do we face a lack of choice or a lack of creativity for our current national challenges?

Your Conversation Starters:  

✓ 3:00: Surgeon general recommends warning label on social media platforms.   

✓ 7:00: New York governor exploring face mask ban on subways. 

✓ 7:00: George Strait ousts the Grateful Dead with a new record… AND learn a little more about this country crooner’s grit.  

Your SCOOP:  

✓ 11:00 Context for the Supreme Court’s decision on "bump stocks."  

✓ 18:00: Context for the Supreme Court’s decision on “Abortion Pill” access. 

✓ 18:00: Foundation for the case we still await the Supremes’ ruling on ... presidential immunity.  

✓ 20:00: The latest on what Democrats call "reproductive rights" legislation.  

✓ 25:00: Your questions about a new proposal on our national military draft, plus some historic context.  

✓ 34:00: A surprise development in a murder case that puts the spotlight on the U.S. border.

✓ 38:00: Arrests made in a newly designated terrorist smuggling ring.  

✓ 38:00: Why comparing the current stiuation at the U.S. border and immigration at Ellis Island just doesn't work.

You guys ready?

0:01.6

All right, let's do this.

0:06.1

Welcome to Scoop, where you get the scoop on this week's news.

0:09.5

My name is Jenna, and this is Smarter News.

0:18.9

I feel like we could do a little, like, some sort of workout to this music. We could do, maybe that's our next thing, you guys. We could be on the treadmill. You know what this would work really good at? What were those classes with the stair step? You know, that you had like a stair, you've had the riser. Am I sounding prehistoric? You know what I'm talking about, right? Where you can

0:38.9

step up, step down, step up, step down. I did that class when I was studying abroad in Spain

0:44.3

because it was a really good way to start learning the language, you know, like up, down, left, right.

0:50.2

You know, you had to do it fast. So I think I also fell during one of those classes. Really bad the whole class had to stop. One of my most embarrassing moments. So I figure, let's start there today. I want you to feel good about the news. I want you to feel so good after scoop. It's like you did a workout, right? Did you feel like you accomplish something? That's what we want for you today. We had a lot of really big headlines that broke last week, Thursday, Friday, going into Saturday.

1:15.7

And I don't know about you, but during summer, it's easier for me to tap in Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, but by Thursday, Friday, we're moving on to something else.

1:25.8

So I saw these headlines cross. They're important.

1:29.8

They're a little bit, they're a little bit weighty. And they got a viral life of their own on

1:35.4

social media. So what I want to do today is go over a lot of what you've basically seen over the last

1:41.3

couple days and add some clarity, a little foundation to some of

1:44.7

these headlines. We got a lot of news from the Supreme Court. We got news from Congress. We got

1:50.0

news, breaking news on a murder investigation. What could be described, at least from a media

1:56.7

perspective as a cold case, in that it wasn't getting a lot more attention. It's a murder of a mother in Maryland, but they caught the guy. And there's an additional story to that. So we're going to go all through all of that for you today. If you have any questions or comments, we'd love to see you live. Our Scoop Insiders are joining us from all over the country. It's great to see you guys, as always. Thank you. We have our audience on Instagram also joining us live today, which is really exciting. And what we're trying to do,

2:21.1

we're trying to deliver news differently. We've had a lot of roadblocks thrown in our way

2:26.0

over the last couple weeks. Just, just for, just name it. Technology, we've requested to belong,

2:33.8

you know, we've requested simple things like simple Instagram

2:36.6

verification, things like this that we've been doing regularly and keep on getting denied. And,

2:41.2

you know, it's really easy to get discouraged when you think, well, this step is working for

2:46.6

everybody else. Why isn't it working for us? And I always have to step back and say, well,
