Consider This from NPR - Legal Experts Say Justice Thomas Should Recuse Himself From Jan. 6th Cases

Ginni Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, is a longtime conservative activist who has been public about her views and support of former President Donald Trump. And text messages that surfaced last week showed that she went as far as peddling falsehoods about the 2020 election directly to former White House staff and urging them to overturn President Joe Biden's victory.

Earlier this year, Clarence Thomas was the sole dissenter as the Supreme Court ruled to give a House select committee investigating the January 6th attack access to White House communications during that period.

NPR's Nina Totenberg reports on why this possible conflict of interest is a true dilemma for the court and spoke with legal experts about what should happen next.

ATXplained - Where have Austin’s Indigenous people gone?

We spend a lot of time in Austin talking about how many new people move here. But most of us don’t talk much about the people who came before us — way before us. 

If you’ve ever taken a walk along Shoal Creek or gone to Barton Springs on a hot summer day, you’re doing something that people have done here for thousands of years. Because all of this was actually once — and in some ways still is — Indigenous land.

The post Where have Austin’s Indigenous people gone? appeared first on KUT & KUTX Studios -- Podcasts.

CoinDesk Podcast Network - NEW MONEY: From Reality TV to Behind Your Phone Screen. Catching Up With the Victor Twin

How can the barrier to entry to crypto be lowered so that everyone can take advantage of new technology?

Joining “New Money” hosts Spencer Dinwiddie and Solo Ceesay are OG reality stars Gabrielle Victor and Danielle Victor, better known as the “Victor Twins.” The twins have successfully monetized their life since their rise to popularity while on reality show “Bad Girls.” They’ve worked to be their genuine selves while posting to social media, and their fans love the authenticity that comes with their content. Even better, the two have found a way to monetize their personalities and daily lives through social media.

Though social media offers a legitimate career path for many creators today, they are still bound to the structure and income that platforms offer. With crypto and blockchain technology, creators can be empowered to determine their own worth. How can a future decentralized social media improve the lives of creators?
