New Utah Law Seeks to Crack Down on Life Coaches Offering Therapy Without a License
Some therapists who lose their licenses transition to the unregulated life coaching industry, an investigation by The Salt Lake Tribune and ProPublica found. A new law makes it clear that only license...
NEW: Dozens of life coaches advertised their ability to treat mental health issues, despite not having the training or permits to do so, Utah researchers found.
A new law aims to crack down on the practice by clearly defining what only a therapist can do.

Op-ed: Try again, President Kumar: Renewing calls for Tufts to adopt March 4 TCU Senate resolutions - The Tufts Daily
The independent student newspaper of Tufts University
This is the op-ed Rumeysa Ozturk co-wrote in 2024 criticizing the Tufts administrationβs response to student demands for action regarding Gaza and Israel. It is unquestionably speech protected by the First Amendment.

What people in every part of higher education need to understand is that Republicans now want to do to universities what theyβve tried to do to labor unions: erase them from the institutional landscape. The question is how much you want to collaborate in your own destruction.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

NSA warned of vulnerabilities in Signal app a month before Houthi strike chat
The National Security Agency sent a bulletin in February warning of Russian hackers trying to access encrypted conversations on Signal.
π¨ CBS News has received an internal NSA bulletin from Feb 2025 warning staff NOT to use Signal app for sensitive info, citing vulnerabilities to Russian hackers. These docs were sent pre-Houthi chat scandal with Jeffrey Goldberg.

According to a source I have at the CIA, Director Radcliffe lied today under oath. Signal is absolutely not loaded on agency computers. As a matter of fact itβs specifically prohibited as an outside app. Skype is allowed for conference calls but not Signal. Heβs lying. @markwarner.bsky.social

The Signal leak is a prime moment for Democrats to get caught trying. Call for resignations or impeachment hearings or both. Be omnipresent in the media demanding and explaining accountability measures. Donβt let this fade away. Treat this the way the GOP treated Hillaryβs emails. Make it a thing.

What you have to understand about Pete Hegseth copying and pasting war plans into Signal is that it almost certainly means heβs got classified documents on his personal UNSECURE devices. Signal isn't on a secure device...are our war plans on his personal devices? @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social
