….	Date: July 03, 2020 01) In The UK, Lords Call For “Immediate Regulation” Of Loot Boxes “In shocking news, it turns out that gambling is gambling, even if it’s in a videogame. Last year, the UK House of Commons said that gambling was gambling, and now the House of Lords has agreed – it turns out that gambling is gambling! The Lords’ report calls for the immediate regulation of loot boxes, pointing out that much of what needs doing won’t even require new regulations and can be implemented swiftly. All I have to say is what I said last year… the “AAA” industry deserves it. It deserves to be regulated, investigated, and in some areas shut down. It’s rotten to the core, and as the months go by, I only see more putrefaction that needs flushing. Citation: https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-53253195“	….

I agree that this is something to keep an eye on…

---

“Trump: I regret ever listening to Jared Kushner.

President Trump has told people in recent days that he regrets following some of son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner’s political advice — including supporting criminal justice reform — and will stick closer to his own instincts, three people with direct knowledge of the president’s thinking tell Axios.

Behind the scenes: One person who spoke with the president interpreted his thinking this way: “No more of Jared’s woke s***.” Another said Trump has indicated that following Kushner’s advice has harmed him politically.

Why it matters: This could be the final straw for federal police reform legislation this year, and it could usher in even more incendiary campaign tactics between now and November.

Details: The sources said the president has resolved to stick to his instincts and jettison any policies that go against them, including ambitious police reform.

“On today’s What America’s Thinking, Hill Reporter, Julia Manchester, explains how Democrats are seizing upon the coronavirus pandemic and protests to galvanize supporters to flip statehouses by tapping into the local movements surrounding black lives matter and the coronavirus pandemic. A new Hill-HarrisX poll supports the idea that local politicians are favored more than lawmakers in D.C. The poll also finds that voters approve of the police over politicians, journalists. Pollster and strategist, Dr. Silas Lee, and pollster and Director of Research at Ipsos, Mallory Newall, join Hill TV to discuss public opinion on the matter. This survey was conducted online within the United States from June 22-23, 2020 among 951 registered voters by HarrisX. The sampling margin of error of this poll is plus or minus 3.18 percentage points. The results reflect a nationally representative sample of registered voters. Results were weighted for age within gender, region, race/ethnicity, income, political party, and education where necessary to align them with their actual proportions in the population.”
