This is WBZ, Boston's news radio, redefining local news. Bright
sunshine at Boston, A temperature of seventy one degrees at
eleven o'clock this Tuesday morning. A good one to you.
I'm Kendall Bule. Here's what's happening as President Trump threatens
(00:21):
to deploy the National Guard to more American cities and
judge rules's tactics in Los Angeles were illegal.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
District Judge Charles Bryer says the administration violated the Posse
Comatatis Act of eighteen seventy eight when it sent the
troops to accompany federal agents on the immigration rates. That
act prohibits the use of the Army and Air Force
for domestic law enforcement purposes. The administration has argued the
Possecommatatis Act doesn't apply because the troops were protecting federal officers,
(00:49):
not enforcing laws.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
It's still about three hundred National Guard troops in Los Angeles.
The judge did not order that they be withdrawn. ABC
News supporting the President. Trump and his family are making
billions from the rollout of a cryptocurrency token.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
We're learning that the Trump family just yesterday made five
billion dollars after the release of a digital coin that's
from a firm that has ties to President Trump and
his adult sons. Now that firm, World Liberty Financial, says
that these tokens were given to founding members of the
company that they can't be sold yet, so any gain
is only on paper. But it comes as the Trump
(01:27):
family is building this emerging cryptocurrency empire and the President
has reoriented the federal government to make the US, as
he says, the crypto capital of the world.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
That's ABC's j O'Brien reporting, well, he's been disbarred in
two jurisdictions, successfully sued for one hundred and forty eight
million dollars, and recently hospitalized after a car crash in
New Hampshire. But Rudy Giuliani is getting some good news
President Trump, and a social media post says the former
New York mayor will receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
(01:58):
The post says the details like where and when, will
be announced at a later date. The news that he'll
receive the nation's highest civilian honor comes days after Giuliani
suffered multiple broken bones getting rear ended at high speed
on I ninety three in Manchester. Congress back for its
summer recess, and some of the victims of billionaire sex
(02:18):
offender Jeffrey Epstein are testifying before a House committee today.
Roy O'Neil reports.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
The women will speak to a private meeting of the
House Oversight Committee on how they were abused by both
Jeffrey Epstein and his associate Gallain Maxwell. The testimony comes
on the eve of their press conference on Capitol Hill,
which is being organized by a bipartisan group of lawmakers
who want the Epstein files made public. Chairman James Comer
also sent a letter to the Treasury Secretary asking for
(02:47):
relevant suspicious activity reports that could help the committee's oversight
of sex trafficking enforcement. I'm Rory O'Neil.
Speaker 1 (02:54):

incidents and there is no threats to the public. We're
(03:16):
going to see temperatures climb into the mid seventies today
under these blue skies, drop down upper fifties in Boston,

Tomorrow Sunday Department cloudy temperatures once again in the mid seventies,
hitting eighty degrees on Thursday, again with plenty of sun
loose skys. In Boston right now, the Mercury is at
(03:36):
seventy one degrees. While for many of us, Labor Day

Speaker 2 (04:13):
It's hard to make a decision whether we really wanted
to leave or not.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
John and his family were supposed to leave yesterday. They
were thinking of even staying an extra few days, but
they're now heading back home to upstate New York.

We wanted to get out and just be as safe
as we can.
