Clarence Thomas may have broken the law by accepting valuable gifts. But the federal gift law is unenforceable for Supreme Court justices. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas became the subject of controversy after ProPublica reported he accepted hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of gifts – largely in the form of vacations and travel – from a wealthy conservative donor and did not disclose them. There are laws against federal employees, including members of Congress, accepting certain gifts. Several VERIFY viewers, including Peggy, asked whether those laws also apply to Supreme Court justices. THE QUESTION Are Supreme Court justices allowed to accept gifts? THE SOURCES THE ANSWER Federal law prohibits “officers of the judicial branch” from accepting gifts from people whom they could use their job to benefit. But the law leaves decisions about what gifts qualify, as well as enforcement and penalties, up to the ethics office of each government agency.  The Supreme Court doesn’t have an ethics office, meaning there’s no binding set of rules for justices to follow like there is for agency employees or members of Congress. WHAT WE FOUND Federal law prohibits any federal workers – including judges and members of Congress – from taking

A headline uses misleading language to refer to regular monthly benefit payments. Social Security recipients are not receiving one-time bonus checks. Social Security was created in 1935 to pay retired workers age 65 and older a continuing income after retirement.  A headline that’s making the rounds on social media says millions of Social Security recipients will receive direct payments of up to $4,555 this month.  VERIFY reader Steven asked if all Social Security beneficiaries are receiving a one-time check for $4,555.  THE QUESTION Is Social Security sending all beneficiaries one-time checks for $4,555? THE SOURCES THE ANSWER No, Social Security is not sending all beneficiaries one-time checks for $4,555. The headline uses misleading language to refer to regular monthly benefit payments – not a one-time bonus payment. WHAT WE FOUND The Social Security Administration (SSA) does not have any information on its website about an additional one-time payment of $4,555 for all beneficiaries in 2023.  The headline circulating online uses misleading language to refer to regular benefit payments that Social Security recipients receive every month – not a one-time bonus payment.  Both the Social Security Administration (SSA) and AARP say on their websites that people who retire at age 70

The deeply concerned Frantz Law Group is taking on the tech giants -- and says these companies target kids and are knowingly harmful, manipulative, and addictive. SAN DIEGO COUNTY, Calif. — Social media giants are the target of a local lawsuit. The goal is to better regulate popular sites like Snapchat and TikTok, protecting children's and teenagers' mental health. The lawsuit aims to protect 200,000 students just in San Diego County alone. Four local school districts and 12 others nationwide are hopeful for change. Carlsbad, Oceanside, National City, and Ramona are now plaintiffs in a lawsuit just filed against all the major players. It alleges Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Snap, and Youtube have caused a mental health crisis among youth. "A 15-year-old was cyberbullied online. She couldn't take it, and she hung herself at the school," James Frantz said. The deeply concerned Frantz Law Group is taking on the tech giants -- and says these companies target kids and are knowingly harmful, manipulative, and addictive. "It will be controlling their behavior, how they run their company and algorithms, and proving they're not intentionally deceptive. Right now, there's no one to control that," he said. Frantz says they're eager to get their

We have seen it all when it comes to paid subscriptions to apps and services. From Twitter Blue taking away your blue tick if you don't pay for it to predatory loot boxes and just when you think you have seen it all, Snapchat has jumped the bandwagon and is hoping that users are going to pay $4 if they want to use dark mode, a feature that is available for free on every other app across every platform. Snapchat on Android will finally have a dark mode, but only if you decide to pay for it Now, don't me get wrong; the Snapchat+ subscription launched last year definitely brings a few perks that the basic, free tier does not offer. However, based on some research by Alessandro Paluzzi, we now know that Snapchat is working on bringing dark mode to its Android app, and get this, it will be available only to the subscribers of its plus tier. #Snapchat keeps working on the dark mode for #Android 👀 ℹ️ It will be a feature for Snapchat+ subscribers pic.twitter.com/utWcmP5CRj — Alessandro Paluzzi (@alex193a) April 11, 2023 Paluzzi even shared screenshots of how Snapchat would look like with dark mode, and

Snapchat is one of the well-known social media platforms used by people across the globe. The company frequently tweaks its platform and app clients by introducing new features and changes. For instance, a few months back, Snapchat launched the ‘My AI’ chatbot with the aim of making users life easy. It is based on Open AI’s GPT technology and helps assist users to plan and organize their work. One can easily get a recipe suggestion or plan their weekend trip with the help of the AI feature. However, things are far from rosy. Source Snapchat users unable to unpin My AI from chat According to reports (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10), multiple Snapchat users are unable to unpin My AI bot from the top of their chat. It has been alleged that only those who have subscribed to Snapchat+ can remove it. Due to this, the other platform users feel left out and discriminated against. And expectedly this has raised eyebrows as many don’t want to purchase an additional subscription just in order to get rid of this annoyance. Those affected have now taken to Twitter to express their disappointment and ask for an option to remove the bot. Source @snapchatsupport how do i
