Jay Z Responds To Pundit Tomi Lahren On 'Drug Dealers Anonymous': Newsy
Published on 1 Jun 2016
Jay Z likes to address his critics on the record — literally.In May, he used a verse to respond to infidelity rumors juiced by his wife Beyoncé's album "Lemonade."
On Tuesday night, the 46-year-old, born Shawn Carter, used his verse on Pusha T's new song "Drug Dealers Anonymous" to address another critic: conservative pundit Tomi Lahren.
Lahren criticized Beyoncé in February for her Black Panther-themed Super Bowl performance. The internet host also brought up Carter's well-documented past as a drug trafficker to question his wife's Black Lives Matter message.
Lahren said: "Your husband was a drug dealer. For 14 years, he sold crack cocaine. Talk about protecting black neighborhoods. Start at home."
Jay Z pulled no punches with his response. He sampled Lahren's critique at the beginning of his verse to make it clear who his rhymes were aimed at.
"For 14 years he sold crack cocaine," Lahren's voice echoes before Carter begins rapping: "Fourteen-year drug dealer and still counting, who deserves the medal of freedom is my accountant. He's been hula-hooping through loopholes, working around s***. IRS should've had the townhouses surrounded. ... Thanks to the lawyers."
Carter has spoken with little shame about his drug-dealing past since his first album debuted in 1996.
His response to Lahren didn't just confirm her accusation; it implied that he's still finding ways to profit from the drug money that was reportedly used to launch his music career.
Lahren, not one to back down, replied Wednesday morning with a tweet referencing Carter's 2003 hit "99 Problems." She tweeted, "I've got 99 problems but trust me, being on your rap ain't one."
Carter appears carefree about both his past life and his present conflict with Lahren. The rapper closed his verse with a Snapchat-inspired joke about the drug raids he once feared: "Damn, Daniel. FBI keeps bringing them all-white vans through."
He can afford to have a cavalier attitude about his former activities, as the statute of limitations has likely passed.
And in 2015, President Barack Obama shared plans to significantly change how the justice system handles drug offenders.
"For nonviolent drug crimes, we need to lower long mandatory sentences or get rid of them entirely," Obama said last July. Through May, the president commuted the sentences of 306 prisoners, many of whom were charged in connection with the distribution of crack cocaine.

#Somalia - Terror Attack On Hotel In Mogadishu Kills At Least 10, Injures Dozens: Newsy
Published on 1 Jun 2016
At
least 10 people were killed and more than 40 were injured Wednesday
after gunmen and a suicide bomber attacked a popular hotel in Somalia's
capital of Mogadishu. Officials say the death toll will likely
increase.
Somali special forces intervened, but it’s unclear if
there are any attackers still in the hotel. Two of those killed
were prominent Somali lawmakers.
Al-Qaeda-affiliated group
Al-Shabab claimed responsibility for the attack. Al-Shabab has carried
out several deadly attacks across eastern Africa, including an attack on
a Kenyan university in 2015 that killed 147 people.
The attack
comes on the heels of a U.S. Department of Defense announcement that a
recent airstrike targeted senior Al-Shabab commander Abdullahi Haji
Daud.
While he didn’t confirm Daud's death, Pentagon Press
Secretary Peter Cook said the strike "will disrupt near-term attack
planning, potentially saving many innocent lives."

Immuno-oncology a “logical step” for Nanobiotix, says chief: ProactiveInvestors Stocktube
Published on 1 Jun 2016
Laurent
Levy, chief executive of Nanobiotix SA (EPA:NANO), says branching out
into immuno-oncology is a “very logical step” in the development of
NBTXR3.
In layman’s terms, Nanobiotix’s nano-particles may have the ability to turn a cold tumour ‘hot’, triggering immunogenic cell death.
The company’s radical new approach to radiotherapy, is unearthing some of the most promising new treatments for the killer disease, using the body’s own immune system to attack tumours and mutated cells.
“We see that radiotherapy is taking more and more space into the immuno-oncology field, so that is why we have started to see if NBTXR3 could bring something else, and that’s what we think we have done,” he says.
