  1. Air conditioning has been a longtime demand of delivery drivers. At least 143 UPS employees have suffered severe heat or dehydration-related injuries since 2015, according to OSHA reports. One California driver died while delivering packages last June.

  3. Special Counsel Jack Smith files a late Friday bombshell by officially requesting a protective order that will shield "ongoing" investigations — indicating that Donald Trump and his assistant Walt Nauta might not be the only ones to end up indicted for the classified documents case. The three page motion addresses "materials" that are "pertaining to ongoing investigations, the disclosure of which could compromise those investigations and identify uncharged individuals." It constitutes a sweeping protective order to shield sensitive information as prosecutors begin the legal process with Trump's defense. Former federal prosecutor Mitchell Epner offered insight into the motion in a conversation with renowned legal outlet Law&Crime. "This draft order clearly leaves open the possibility that additional people will be charged," said Epner. He said it could also indicate that there are more charges to come for Trump and Nauta. "This is the protective order that Trump is going to find extraordinarily difficult to comply with,” added Epner. The motion ensures that the indicted ex-president cannot disclose even "non-classified discovery" to anyone who isn't on his legal team.

  6. We are on the brink of the biggest labor strike in America since the 1950s. 340,000 UPS workers just voted to authorize a strike if they can’t come to terms on a new contract with the company by July 31. This is a huge deal. 🧵
