Three people are dead and at least six others injured following a shooting at a Florida graduation party on Sunday. Miami-Dade police Director Freddie Ramirez told news outlets that the party at a strip mall lounge was ending when one or more vehicles “pulled up and began to fire into the crowd.” The identities of those killed and wounded were not immediately released Sunday. The shooting happened about 2 a.m. in the suburb of Kendall. Two of those who died were in one of the cars police believe was involved in the shooting. The vehicle sped off and crashed into a nearby wall. Authorities found at least one gun in the car, but its exact connection to the shooting was unclear.

Sunday’s shooting follows a rise in crime in the Miami area that saw three people killed and 20 wounded in a still-unsolved mass shooting at a banquet hall over the Memorial Dad weekend. Another shooting on May 28 in the Wynwood area killed one person and injured six others.

Bad Bunny has returned with a new single titled “Yonaguni,” which is named after a Japanese island. “Yonaguni” marks Bunny’s first single since he released his album El Último Tour del Mundo last November.

“Yonaguni” also comes with the release of the accompanying music video; in the opening, Bunny sings the track’s introduction while eating sushi and sipping on a glass of wine in a restaurant alone. The visual quickly shifts to a montage of the artist getting ready and eating a hearty breakfast the next morning, before taking to the street with eight dogs on leashes.

Check out the video for “Yonaguni” at the link – here.

Mariah Carey is under new management, and has parted ways with Roc Nation after three and a half years. According to reports, Mariah quit JAY-Z’s management company after a “huge fight” between the stars about the future of Carey’s career, which reportedly led her to seek new management.

Sources say that Mariah and Jay-Z had an explosive meeting which did not go well; making it clear she wants nothing more to do with him and has called it quits with Roc Nation. Carey, who signed with Roc Nation in November 2017, will formally depart in the next few weeks — however, the Roc Nation website no longer lists her among its clients. Under Roc Nation management, Carey released her 30th anniversary album The Rarities and published her best-selling memoir The Meaning of Mariah Carey. Additionally, she signed a deal with Apple TV+‌ for her holiday special, “Mariah Carey’s Magical Christmas Special.”

Carey is said to have already begun “talking to other managers and thinks she has found someone who she feels has full belief in her.” She is also working on a new album and world tour.

Famed criminal defense attorney F. Lee Bailey dies at age 87

High-profile criminal defense attorney F. Lee Bailey, who represented O.J. Simpson at his trial in 1995, has died at age 87. Bailey’s death was confirmed to The Associated Press by Peter Horstmann, who worked with Bailey as an associate in the same law office for seven years.

Bailey served as one of Simpson’s attorneys, which ended in his acquittal in the 1994 murders of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ronald Goldman. In tribute on his Twitter page, Simpson called Bailey, “a great friend,” and “one of the great lawyers of our time. He was smart, sharp as ever. F. Lee Bailey, maybe the best lawyer of our time, of this generation, but a great guy. God bless his family. God bless you, Lee. You will be missed by me.”

Bailey’s legal career lasted more than four decades. In the 1960s, he secured a reversal of Dr. Sam Sheppard’s conviction in the murder of his pregnant wife and an acquittal at his second trial. He also represented Albert DeSalvo, who claimed to be the Boston Strangler, and Patricia Hearst. Bailey’s other high-profile clients included Capt. Ernest Medina, charged in connection with the My Lai massacre during the Vietnam War.

President Biden offers tax concessions on infrastructure package with Republicans

Post date June 4, 2021

President Joe Biden offered to narrow his $1.7 trillion infrastructure package in a concession to Republicans. Biden put forth a new $1 trillion proposal to Sen. Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va., who is leading the Senate Republicans’ negotiations with Biden on the deal.

Biden initially proposed a $2 trillion package that included two parts — the American Jobs Plan and the American Families Plan — to focus on modernizing transportation infrastructure, including roads, bridges and airports. He also sought to boost the electric vehicle market, expand broadband Internet access, upgrade schools and affordable housing, increase job training, and care for elderly and disabled Americans. He sought to pay for the package by raising the tax rates on corporations and wealthier Americans, however Republicans have countered with narrower proposals.

Biden’s new proposal is half what he originally sought to pass, but still includes nearly four times the new spending Republicans wanted in their own counteroffer. Capito and Biden were expected to speak again Friday.
