The rapper seemed to have blown his career up two years ago with a string of offensive comments. But now he has another album at No 1Over the course of about a month in late 2022, Kanye West seemingly blew up his career for ever. Weeks of increasingly erratic behaviour culminated in a slip into full-blown reactionary populism with a series of offensive stunts, including but not limited to: wearing a White Lives Matter T-shirt, reviving hoary antisemitic tropes about Jews controlling the media, and threatening on X (then Twitter) to go death con 3" on Jews.Within weeks, West's record label and publisher - Universal Music Group and Sony Music Publishing, respectively - terminated their contracts with him; he was dropped by his agency, CAA; and Adidas, Balenciaga and Gap canned their continuing collaborations. The vast majority of his $2bn (1.6bn) net worth evaporated overnight.

Ex-president's description of meeting relatives of Ruby Garcia to spin anti-immigration narrative is shocking', sister saysDonald Trump used a campaign stop in Grand Rapids, Michigan, to describe meeting the family of a woman killed by an immigrant in order to spin a narrative about what he calls Biden's border bloodbath" - except Ruby Garcia's family now say he never did.Garcia, 25, was found shot to death on highway US-131 on 22 March of this year.

Former president seeks to block Wesley Moss and Andrew Litinsky from receiving Trump Media stock worth over $400mDonald Trump sued two former contestants on The Apprentice, his hit NBC reality show, who became co-founders of Trump Media and Technology Group, claiming they failed to set up the venture properly and should not get promised stock worth more than $400m.Trump fronted The Apprentice, in which contestants competed for a job at the Trump Organization, from 2004 to 2015. The show coined Trump's catchphrase, You're fired!", though he ended up fired himself, after entering Republican presidential politics and making racist comments about Mexicans. Continue reading...
The thousands in Britain who march against this war see a people - and aid workers - under murderous attack. Sunak can act, and he mustThere are no excuses for ignoring where Israel's onslaught against Gaza would lead. After slaughtering seven World Central Kitchen aid workers, three Britons among them, Israeli authorities will subject us to a well-trodden strategy: deflect, delay, deceive, muddy the waters, hope attention moves elsewhere. We have seen this all before. As the Tory MP and chair of the foreign affairs select committee, Alicia Kearns, notes, nearly 11 weeks on, there has still been no explanation for why Israel bombed a Medical Aid for Palestinians compound in an official safe zone in mid-January.These latest aid workers were travelling in a deconflicted" zone, had coordinated their movements with Israeli forces on a pre-agreed route, and were in vehicles marked with large World Central Kitchen logos. They were struck three times, over the space of nearly a mile and a half; survivors even scrambled into the remaining cars before being hit again.Owen Jones is a Guardian columnistDo you have an opinion on the issues raised in this article?

Conservatives don't understand that abortion is controversial only in theory; faced with a material choice, Americans support abortion rightsIt's hard to imagine a scenario in which the Florida state supreme court would not have allowed Governor Ron DeSantis's six-week abortion ban to go into effect. In a challenge to a previous 15-week ban, the court's seven judges, all of whom were appointed by DeSantis, overturned 35 years of precedent this week in order to find that the right to privacy enshrined in the state constitution does not protect the right to an abortion, as Florida state law has acknowledged it does since 1989.The court's approval of the 15-week ban will allow a stricter, previously stayed six-week ban to go into effect on 1 May. Justice Charles Canady did not recuse himself from the case, despite calls for him do so from no less an authority than the Florida supreme court's former chief justice, Barbara Pariente. Justice Canady's wife, the state representative Jennifer Canady, is a legislative co-sponsor of the newly approved six-week ban. There is no rape or incest exception. Continue reading...
Thankfully my mum is soon coming to visit me with a suitcase full of the best of Britain: chocolate, tea and savoury snacksMy mum, who lives in England, is coming to visit me in Philadelphia soon and I have given her strict instructions on what to bring from the motherland. Namely, deodorant. You can get a lot of things in the US - it is a land of excess - but the deodorant offerings here stink.Most American women, you see, tend to use stick deodorants. In the UK, meanwhile, it's far more normal for women to use a roll-on. Or, at least, its far more normal for shops to stock a wide range of roll-ons. I don't have some sort of degree in deodorant studies, I should probably note; I have not done extensive market research on this matter. This assertion is based on empirical data gathered over a lifetime of deodorant shopping, along with several years of arguing with my American wife about our underarm preferences. She thinks roll-on deodorant is (trigger warning: an objectionable word is about to appear) moist and leaves a wet sensation. I think that stick deodorant feels clammy and flaky. Clearly I am right.

Young people may have fewer paths from shop floor to boardroom - but you can still find your way to a more fulfilling roleRecently, I sat in a lecture hall with a couple of hundred final-year undergraduate students. Looking around, I thought about my own uncertainty at their age. When I was about to graduate, the future seemed unclear. I didn't have a place on a company graduate programme like many of my classmates. Decades on, I realised that what seemed like obvious career ladders weren't so simple.The job market for today's graduates seems good. The annual report by the Institute of Student Employers found that graduate recruitment is expected to increase by 5% in 2023-24. Companies continued to struggle to recruit in areas such as digital, engineering and finance. Despite this strong demand, each position was hotly contested - with an average of 86 applications for every opening. Continue reading...

I'm working to help vulnerable women in my home country of Kenya, but millions around the world face deep-rooted injusticesIn February, Asenath Rotich became a widow, after the death of her partner, marathon runner and world record-holder Kelvin Kiptum, in a road accident. Unlike the majority of more than 8 million widows in Kenya, Rotich's future is being provided for. The government has built her a house and is working to secure a job for her so she can care for her two children.In contrast, consider the recent case of Silvia that was shared with me by a community radio journalist. Silvia is a 39-year-old widow with five children, whose home in Siaya County was demolished during a land ownership dispute. Despite widespread media coverage and public outcry, justice remains elusive for her. Continue reading...

Thousands show up in Green Bay where ex-president attacks fake media' and tyrants' in state where he lost to Biden four years agoOn Wisconsin's presidential primary election day, Donald Trump made his first campaign stop in the state, where he railed against so-called migrant crime" and doubled down on false election claims.We won in 2016 - we did much better in 2020, hate to say it, we did a hell of a lot better," the former president told the roaring crowd, nodding to the disproven and unfounded rigging" numerous times during his speech.

The attack on a relief convoy, an assassination on diplomatic premises and a devastating hospital raid show Israel does not heed allies or criticsEven by the standards of a conflict that has killed almost 33,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and created the entirely human-made famine taking hold in Gaza, Israel has crossed multiple lines in just a couple of days. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) killed seven foreign aid workers, including a dual US/Canadian citizen, three Britons as well as team members from Poland and Australia, and their Palestinian driver, as they attempted to meet some portion of the desperate need. Gaza's chief hospital, al-Shifa, lies in ruins after a two-week IDF raid. Israel says no civilians died there; the World Health Organization disagrees. And it has killed the Revolutionary Guards Corps commander Mohammad Reza Zahedi and his deputy at an Iranian diplomatic mission in Syria - reviving fears of a wider regional conflagration, and setting a dangerous precedent in targeting diplomatic premises.Israel and its armed forces boast of following international law. A senior Tory has said that British government lawyers believe Israel has broken it. The former Israeli president Reuven Rivlin has warned that it is one step away from international ostracism". While the rhetoric of Israel's allies has been slowly hardening, and their diplomatic position shifting, polls suggest that the public mood is moving faster. The World Central Kitchen workers were in clearly marked cars, in a deconflicted" zone, heading away from an aid warehouse, having coordinated movements with the IDF. The convoy was struck not once but three times, killing the fleeing survivors. Continue reading...
In separate decision, state supreme court agrees to allow voters to decide on enshrining rights in constitution in NovemberFlorida, the last bastion of abortion access in the south-eastern United States, will ban abortion past six weeks of pregnancy starting next month, leaving abortion providers and their supporters in the state and across the country scrambling to deal with the fallout for patients.On Monday, the Florida state supreme court upheld a 15-week abortion ban, a move that removed the barriers for a separate, six-week ban that takes effect on 1 May. In a separate ruling, the court also agreed to let Florida residents weigh in on the issue through a November ballot measure to enshrine abortion rights in the state constitution - a decision that opens a new front in an election that is already sure to be dominated by abortion politics.

A new study suggests coffee could prevent bowel cancer reoccurring - but claims for its healing properties have abounded since the 15th centuryLast week a study was published showing that people with bowel cancer who drink coffee - quite a lot of coffee, two to four cups a day - were less likely to suffer a return of the disease. Experts have said that if the results hold in further studies, coffee could be prescribed to cancer patients on the NHS. That coffee does have an effect on human function is beyond dispute - but whether that impact is beneficial or detrimental has been the subject of contention since Sufi mystics began consuming the beverage some time in the mid-15th century.The Indigenous peoples of the forests of Kaffa in south-west Ethiopia foraged berries from wild coffee plants that were shipped across the Red Sea to prepare the decoction known as qahwa, which Yemeni Sufis incorporated into their night-time religious ceremonies to reduce their desire for sleep. Once mainstream Islamic courts ruled coffee was not intoxicating, consumption became widespread among the Muslim populations in the Middle East and the Ottoman empire. Continue reading...

For all her declarations of being authentically country, Cowboy Carter arrives on the back of booming business for the genre and is all about the star, not the roots music supposedly at the project's heartOn the first track of Beyonce's new album, she seems to state the impetus behind the project: They used to say I spoke too country / Then the rejection came, said I wasn't country 'nough." That rejection was an unnamed experience in which she has said she did not feel welcomed", assumed to be her performance of her song Daddy Lessons with the Chicks at the 2016 Country Music awards. It prompted a racist backlash from parts of the country establishment, as well as outrage at Beyonce giving a platform to the Chicks, who had been in exile from the industry since singer Natalie Maines criticised George W Bush's handling of the Iraq war in 2002.Cowboy Carter is Beyonce's 27-track response. On the album's cover, she is on a horse, holding an American flag, draped in US flag apparel, with her long blond tresses flowing and a cowboy hat atop her head. In the few details she has shared about the album, she said she did a deeper dive into the history of country music and studied our rich musical archive". As she became the first Black female artist to have a US country No 1 and top the Billboard Hot 100 with a country song and debate over her place in the genre reigned, no greater a country luminary than Dolly Parton lent her support. Later it was revealed that she and outlaw legend Willie Nelson were to feature on the album, cementing its country bona fides. Continue reading...
The conservative obsession with purity and control is being achieved by increasingly punitive meansThe US supreme court justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas cited the Comstock Act, named after the 19th-century anti-vice campaigner Anthony Comstock, in last week's case about access to the abortion pill mifepristone. If you don't know who Anthony Comstock was or what his law did, that might not have alarmed you. But it should have.The Comstock Law has come up a lot lately, and it's part of the Republican war on sex, and to put it that way might sound overly dramatic. But there is such a war, and parts of it - against sex education, against access to birth control, against the healthcare provider Planned Parenthood and of course against abortion - have long been out in the open along with a war against the rights of women and on the rights and very existence of queer and trans people.Rebecca Solnit is a Guardian US columnist.

Of course there's extra material as well as the usual gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. But is it enough to make America believe again?Donald Trump's Bible costs $59.99, which puts it at the more expensive end of the King James editions, but it does have extra content: it's called the God Bless the USA Bible, and includes a copy of the US constitution, the Bill of Rights and handwritten lyrics to the chorus of God Bless the USA, by Lee Greenwood. If you thought that chorus was God bless the USA", you're getting it mixed up with Born in the USA", idiot; Greenwood's lyrics have a load of other stuff about freedom, death and defence, which obviously makes them the ideal anthem to scripture.Trump has always said the Bible is his favourite book, on one occasion going on to name his favourite bit, an eye for an eye", elaborating if you look at what's happening to our country ... how people are taking advantage of us, and how they scoff at us and laugh at us. And they laugh at our face, and they're taking our jobs, they're taking our money, they're taking the health of our country. And we have to be firm and have to be very strong." Continue reading...

Players such as Ben Simmons and Markelle Fultz have been accused of suffering from the yips. But every player has to confront fear at some pointPhiladelphia 76ers basketball fans know one sentence above all else: Trust the process. It was used often when the team was struggling in the 2010s as the team appeared to tank for the sake of high draft picks and long-term team building. But two of the franchise's ensuing No 1 selections - Ben Simmons and Markel Fultz, both of whom are no longer on the team, despite being dubbed saviors - seemed to lose sight of the maxim when it came to their own on-court games. Both players came into the NBA with sky-high potential. But they both came under unwelcome scrutiny: Fultz for a hitch in his shooting technique, and Simmons for a reluctance to shoot at all. The pair were inevitably accused of succumbing to the the dreaded yips."Throughout the history of pro sports, there have been many high profile cases of players losing the ability to conduct the most basic of on-field tasks. In baseball, New York Yankees second baseman Chuck Knoblauch somehow could not throw to first base. Similarly, catcher Mackey Sasser found himself unable to send the ball from home plate to the pitcher, double clutching his throws, as if he was thinking too much about the task. Pitcher Rick Ankiel, who lost his ability to pitch and later became an outfielder, said of his issues, Throwing the baseball, it felt like my wrist wouldn't work. I couldn't feel the ball."

The league has bared its teeth on teams in breach of profit and sustainability rules. But the current enforcement has solidified the disparity between clubsThis Premier League season will be remembered for many things: as the season when the Kop lost its Klopp, as the season of Well done boys, good process", as a time in which the agent of chaos", whether named Darwin or Jeremy or Kaoru or Kai, offered a brief and sparkling reprieve from the monotonous precision of the relentlessly rehearsed modern game. Mostly, though, it will be remembered as the season of teeth.By near-universal consensus, the points deductions imposed on Everton and Nottingham Forest, as well as the ongoing investigation into Leicester City's finances (not to mention the 115 charges still pending against Manchester City), prove at long last that the Premier League's profitability and sustainability rules have teeth" - or unexpected teeth", as one commentator put it. The Super League fiasco and the ongoing failure of the Premier League to secure an equitable deal for the distribution of media revenue down the football pyramid, meanwhile, have highlighted the need for a regulator that has real teeth" - a need that the recently introduced football governance bill, many believe, may help address. The age of the soccer regulators is upon us, and suddenly their fangs are everywhere. Not since the days when Luis Suarez was feasting on the arms and shoulders of his opponents has there been quite so much attention paid in English football to matters of dentition.

World No 1 and Masters favourite may lack the aura of Tiger Woods or Phil Mickelson but will be the man to beat at AugustaBefore the 2006 Masters the British golfmedia reacted with incredulity as,buried in the report of a car being shot at in Augusta, sat the identity of the driver. Tom Lehman, the USRyderCup captain and former Open champion, was unharmed despite Troy Smith unleashing a bullet at his Cadillac. Smith was later jailed for five years. Lehman missed the cut - no wonder - in his finalMasters appearance. He was presumably in no rush to return to that particular corner of Georgia.It is hardly underplaying the seriousness of this incident to point out that, finally, there was something stimulating about Tom Lehman. He had reached the summit of golf - including the world rankings - without creating ripples. This was the era of peak Tiger Woods; most others in golf, major winners included, were simply extras. A bullet hole in a car door somehow gaveLehman fresh eminence. Continue reading...
