Get on the bus: New mobile medical clinic aims to keep NYC cops healthy and prevent sudden deaths

The Detectives Endowment Association rolled out a 38-foot mobile medical clinic to screen NYC detectives for heart and other health problems at precincts. The program was inspired partly by Bronx Det. Juan Rodriguez, who died of a heart attack days before retirement, and also cites 9/11-related cancers among union members. The union says the checkups are covered by detectives' healthcare with no co-pay.

An opinion piece argues that Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei is right to warn about AI but focuses on the wrong apocalypse: the risk that automation will make human labor unnecessary and erode society's valuation of displaced workers.

Sean O’Brien is just Randi Weingarten in a hard hat

The op-ed argues that the divide between government and private-sector unions is a myth because organized labor is unified in left-wing politics, citing examples such as the UAW and SEIU, campaign donations, and union stances on immigration, abortion, and DEI. It warns conservatives against empowering any unions, including the Teamsters, because doing so benefits the whole labor movement.
