man killed by police. He was just such an inspiration.
Take kill you this time in South Florida. His family's
demanding justice. Plus from medicine to home goods. Trump's new
terrorists will hit black households harder, and she broke barriers
so we could break stories in West Coast. Broadcast legend passes,

(00:22):
but first, here's bin News now.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
California leaders are calling on Congress to keep tax credits
for the Affordable Care Act and the next budget. Senator
Adam Schiff with Congressman Mike Levin, said hundreds of thousands
of people, including many black people, won't be able to
afford coverage if their credits aren't included.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
Six hundred and sixty thousand California, over five million nationwide,
and even for others who keep their care through the
cover California or through the ACA, premiums will skyrocket.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
President Trump is ordering federal prosecutors to push for the
death penalty. In Washington, d C. The President signed an
executive order directing the Attorney General and attorney to seek
capital punishment for those found guilty of especially aggravated crimes
in the nation's capital, The Brooklyn Nets are bringing back

(01:11):
design represents unity and celebrates the borough's cultural impact. I'm
Alexandria Ikamoni with BIN News. Now back to you, Doug.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
All right, thank you. Black households could feel the pinch
first from President Trump's latest round of tariffs that to
begin October first, and it could hit close to home,
as he says, the US won't be taken advantage of anymore.

Speaker 4 (01:31):
Starting today, the United States will no longer subsidize the
healthcare of foreign countries, which is what we were doing.
We're subsidizing others healthcare countries where they paid a small
fraction of what for the same drug that what we
pay many many times more for. And we're no longer
tolerate profiteering and price gouging from big pharma. But again,

(01:54):
it was really the countries that forced big Pharma to
do things that, frankly, I'm not sure they really felt
comfortable doing, but they've gotten away with it. These countries.
European Union has been brutal.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
Brutal.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
Imported prescription drugs will face a one hundred percent tax
unless companies start making them in the US furniture cabinets
and big grig trucks. They're also getting taxed for black
communities where a healthcare is already in uphill battle. The
new terrorists could shrink wallets at a time when inflation
is up and economist's worn. It could drive prices higher. Meanwhile,
in South Florida, another black man's life has been lost

(02:29):
at the hands of law enforcement. Jerrou Dolarson, a father
of nine, were shot and killed by a Broward County
deputy last Sunday. Deputy say he fired a weapon. His
family says he was simply asking for help. He was
just such an inspiration.

Speaker 5 (02:43):
He's such a happy man, so full of life. It's
such a trusty.

Speaker 2 (02:51):

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Dolinson was reportedly on drugs and holding a gun to
his head. He called police himself.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
But he's allucinating.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
He's thinking people are gonna kill him.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
He's been up for days. The Florida Department of Law
Enforcement is investigating. The family is hired an attorney and
plans to meet with internal affairs. And finally we hear
at Bin News this hour are taking a pause to
honor a giant in journalism who recently passed away. Belvis
Davis became the first black woman to anchor television news
in the Western United States.

Speaker 5 (03:28):
California is a place where dreams are born, but where
they're also executed by individuals in love with ideas, ideas
basically to help somebody else, and that has been my
life's mity.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
She died peacefully in her sleep at the age of
ninety two in the Bay Area. She spent decades shaping
the media landscape, and Davis was more than just a reporter.
She was a trailblazer that opened doors for generations of
black journalists, especially black women, in a field that really
made space for us. She earned eight Emmy Awards and
countless community accolades. As we warned her passing, we are

(04:06):
reminded that black media matters. Belvist life is a blueprint.
