Kroger to match up to $50K in donations to end hunger – NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth
SUMMARY: The Tarrant Area Food Bank expects to serve 20,000 people between Thanksgiving and Christmas this year, with an increase in need due to post-pandemic benefits falling off. Many people, like Roger Sepulveda, are coming to the food bank for support for the first time, due to issues such as disabilities and unemployment. Kroger has seen the need and is running a campaign to raise $900,000 for local food banks, with a dollar for dollar match on donations up to $50,000. The campaign is aimed at helping people make ends meet and ensuring they have enough food, especially during the holiday season.

Sotomayor’s dissent: Supreme Court’s liberal justices warn of law-free zone stemming from Trump immunity ruling
SUMMARY: In a significant ruling, the Supreme Court decided 6-3 that former presidents have immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts while in office, but not for unofficial acts. Justice Sonia Sotomayor's dissent expressed deep concern, arguing it creates near-absolute presidential immunity, potentially leading to abuses of power. The ruling influences the delay in Donald Trump's 2020 election subversion case as courts discern which actions are protected. Justices Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson joined Sotomayor, stressing the long-term impact on constitutional democracy. Chief Justice John Roberts defended the decision, emphasizing the necessity of presidential powers while cautioning against routine prosecutions of ex-presidents.
