On Thursday Vice President Kamala Harris defended shifting away from some of her more liberal positions in her first major television interview of her presidential campaign. But she insisted her “values have not changed,” even as she is “seeking consensus.” Sitting with her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Harris was asked about changes in her policies over the years, specifically her reversals on fracking and decriminalizing illegal border crossings.

So many wedding traditions no longer apply, so why are parents, who may be older and heading toward retirement, still paying for weddings? https://lnkd.in/ekipJpYs
Who pays for the wedding? Traditional etiquette doesn't always hold

Yesterday was a busy day on my beat with three stories. First, the Federal Railroad Administration put out its assessment of BNSF’s safety culture. This is the second one of these reports the agency has put out since Norfolk Southern’s last summer. The FRA plans to do these at all the major freight railroads after the East Palestine derailment last year. BNSF got high marks for its efforts to stress safety but the FRA says that message doesn’t always reach the front lines and rail workers still might be reluctant to report safety concerns for fear of retaliation. So it urged the railroad to move beyond its pilot project with dispatchers and broadly sign on to the confidential federal safety reporting program. Here is that story: https://lnkd.in/gvdD6qkP Then Berkshire Hathaway made news for two reasons. First Warren Buffett sold off another billion dollars worth of Bank of America stock although that still remains Berkshire’s third largest holding. And then Berkshire’s share price climbed enough that the company was able to join the trillion dollar market cap club — the first non-tech company to do so. Here’s that Berkshire story: https://lnkd.in/gxi6yV3C Later in the day the NTSB offered an update on its investigation into the death of a carman who stepped in front of two remote control locomotives in a CSX railyard last year. The NTSB is still investigating that death but it posted a bunch of documents yesterday including transcripts with the workers who were there. The carman who discovered his friend’s body believes there is an easy solution to preventing such deaths: two-person crews. But that idea isn’t popular with the rails that rely on one-man remote operations in railyards to limit costs. Here is that story on the worker’s death: https://lnkd.in/gpWnZuGF
Railroad BNSF stresses safety but is still held back by longstanding industry issues, report finds
