00:00:00.800 --> 00:00:05.599
<v Speaker 1>This is w b Z, Boston's news radio, redefining local

2
00:00:05.639 --> 00:00:13.720
<v Speaker 1>news seventy six degrees in Boston at four o'clock. Good afternoon,

3
00:00:13.720 --> 00:00:16.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm Ben Parker. Here's what's happening. Support is coming from

4
00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:20.359
<v Speaker 1>local lawmakers from an Afghan man who's being detained by ICE.

5
00:00:20.480 --> 00:00:22.519
<v Speaker 1>Some of the easy's Jeremy Russ. That's the story.

6
00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:25.280
<v Speaker 2>He risked his life as an interpreter for American soldiers

7
00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:27.839
<v Speaker 2>in Afghanistan. But now the man who we know only

8
00:00:27.879 --> 00:00:30.640
<v Speaker 2>as Zia, is behind bars at an ICE detention center

9
00:00:30.679 --> 00:00:33.719
<v Speaker 2>in Plymouth. Zeo was arrested in East Hartford, Connecticut, last

10
00:00:33.719 --> 00:00:36.159
<v Speaker 2>month during a routine appointment as part of the process

11
00:00:36.159 --> 00:00:38.840
<v Speaker 2>to get a green card. The Department of Homeland Security

12
00:00:38.880 --> 00:00:41.799
<v Speaker 2>says Zea is in the country illegally, but during a

13
00:00:41.880 --> 00:00:45.719
<v Speaker 2>visit to the detention center yesterday, Massachusetts Congressman Bill Keating

14
00:00:45.799 --> 00:00:48.719
<v Speaker 2>said that's not true, and Zia deserves better treatment for

15
00:00:48.759 --> 00:00:50.600
<v Speaker 2>the risks he took in the battlefield.

16
00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:56.159
<v Speaker 3>This is nothing but a disgusting betrayal of that promise.

17
00:00:56.679 --> 00:01:00.520
<v Speaker 3>A promise me to the people that risk their lives

18
00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:03.280
<v Speaker 3>like Zia, but the promise made to our own troops

19
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:06.879
<v Speaker 3>that we would take care of those people that took

20
00:01:06.879 --> 00:01:07.400
<v Speaker 3>care of them.

21
00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:10.840
<v Speaker 2>Connecticut Senator Richard Blument Dahal was also there yesterday. He

22
00:01:10.879 --> 00:01:13.680
<v Speaker 2>and Keating say Zia has a hearing scheduled for next month.

<v Speaker 2>Jeremy Ross WBZ, Boston's news radio.

24
00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:20.760
<v Speaker 1>President Trump says he'll ramp up the federal law enforcement

25
00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:24.040
<v Speaker 1>presidence in Washington, d C. After a former DOGE staffer

26
00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:26.840
<v Speaker 1>was assaulted. ABC Stephen Portnoy has the latest.

27
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:30.000
<v Speaker 4>While details remain unclear, the White House says DC residents

28
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:32.400
<v Speaker 4>should expect to see an increase in federal law enforcement

29
00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:35.439
<v Speaker 4>as early as tomorrow. That days after a high profile

30
00:01:35.560 --> 00:01:38.200
<v Speaker 4>former DOGE staffer was beaten and bloodied by a group

31
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:41.319
<v Speaker 4>of teens as he protected his girlfriend. President Trump has

32
00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:44.079
<v Speaker 4>suggested he might bring in the National Guard or use

33
00:01:44.120 --> 00:01:46.359
<v Speaker 4>his emergency power under the d C Home Rule Act

34
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:49.840
<v Speaker 4>to gain control over DC police. That department's own data

35
00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:52.719
<v Speaker 4>shows violent crime in the district is down twenty six

36
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:54.359
<v Speaker 4>percent compared to last year.

37
00:01:54.519 --> 00:01:57.239
<v Speaker 1>It is not exactly clear what the extra federal authorities

38
00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:00.680
<v Speaker 1>would be ordered to do there. The Massachusetts Attorney General's

39
00:02:00.719 --> 00:02:03.719
<v Speaker 1>office has some work to do ahead of today's filing deadline.

40
00:02:03.719 --> 00:02:06.480

<v Speaker 1>initiative petitions to for certification decisions that could be released

42

00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:16.319
<v Speaker 1>forty two of proposed laws for the twenty twenty six ballot.

44
00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:20.639
<v Speaker 1>Five are proposed constitutional amendments for the twenty twenty eight ballot.

45
00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:23.879
<v Speaker 1>The Ang's office will review whether the initiative petitions meet

46
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:27.439
<v Speaker 1>certain constitutional requirements to be filed with the Secretary of

00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:53.400
<v Speaker 5>The Bureau of Prison says he's due for release next July.

56
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:57.280
<v Speaker 5>Correa was first arrested in twenty eighteen for defrauding investors

<v Speaker 5>said what I have before me is an absolute lack

61
00:03:09.759 --> 00:03:14.039
<v Speaker 5>of remorse. Madison Rogers WBZ, Boston's news radio.

62
00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:17.360
<v Speaker 1>We'll have a fairly decent night, mainly clear, skies, comfortable

63
00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:19.800
<v Speaker 1>sixty three in Boston, probably closer to fifty in the

64
00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:24.280
<v Speaker 1>coldest inland suburbs. Sunshine around Tomorrow, temperatures will get into

65
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:26.560
<v Speaker 1>the upper seventies at the harbor. We'll get into the

66
00:03:26.599 --> 00:03:30.120
<v Speaker 1>mid eighties in the suburbs, and then clear Tomorrow night

67
00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:33.680
<v Speaker 1>temperatures again sixty three in Boston, fifties in the suburbs. Saturday,

68
00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:37.919
<v Speaker 1>mid eighties for the inland suburbs, probably mid seventies or

69
00:03:38.039 --> 00:03:42.840
<v Speaker 1>so near the water's edge. Mostly sunny and warmer. On Sunday,

70
00:03:42.919 --> 00:03:45.599
<v Speaker 1>in fact, we may get into the low nineties and

71
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:49.000
<v Speaker 1>some of the inland spots. Upper eighties in Boston, closer

72
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:51.240
<v Speaker 1>to eighty for the Capean Islands, and the nineties may

73
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:53.039
<v Speaker 1>hang around for at least a few days to kick

74
00:03:53.080 --> 00:03:55.240
<v Speaker 1>off next week, and more humidity. You'll sneak in here

75
00:03:55.639 --> 00:04:00.560
<v Speaker 1>as well. Right now it is seventy five degrees in Boston,

76
00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:03.039
<v Speaker 1>some of the top Girl Scout cookie sellers in Eastern

77
00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Massachusetts chewing the fat or the cookies as the case

78
00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:09.919
<v Speaker 1>maybe at the Girl Scout Museum at the headquarters in Waltham.

79
00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:11.800
<v Speaker 6>It's not every day get to sit down with some

80
00:04:11.919 --> 00:04:14.639
<v Speaker 6>absolute pros of the Girl Scout cookie game. So I

81
00:04:14.719 --> 00:04:17.519
<v Speaker 6>figured I had to learn the secrets behind their success.

82
00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:21.120
<v Speaker 6>For Girl Scout Brownie Emma, it was about placement and teamwork.

83
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:23.720
<v Speaker 7>They went to Peterson's Market and my family helped me.

84
00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:26.000
<v Speaker 6>Too, And family is a big part of it, especially

85
00:04:26.079 --> 00:04:28.839
<v Speaker 6>for Junior Scout Haven, who says her family always had

86
00:04:28.879 --> 00:04:29.199
<v Speaker 6>her back.

87
00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:31.959
<v Speaker 7>They're like encouraging me all the way. Like they're like

88
00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:35.000
<v Speaker 7>encouraging and like I'm saying, I can do this, even

89
00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:36.199
<v Speaker 7>at like the toughest time.

90
00:04:36.439 --> 00:04:39.199
<v Speaker 6>They're here at the Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts Museum

91
00:04:39.279 --> 00:04:41.439
<v Speaker 6>to celebrate their success and get ready for the next

92
00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:44.160
<v Speaker 6>cookie season. But for Scouts like Alex's, cookie season is

93
00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:46.000
<v Speaker 6>more than just trying to sell the most suites.

94
00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:49.480
<v Speaker 7>I learned how to be a leader, money management, how

95
00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:52.120
<v Speaker 7>to be a good friend, how to talk to strangers.

96
00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:55.480
<v Speaker 7>Because I'm a very shy person, so it's good to

97
00:04:55.879 --> 00:04:57.360
<v Speaker 7>help me talk to people.

98
00:04:57.199 --> 00:05:00.279
<v Speaker 6>I don't know from Wallfam, Kyle Bray, WBZ boss Since

<v Speaker 6>News Radio.

100
00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:04.279
<v Speaker 1>Who knows. Maybe one day those cookie magnets will make

101
00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:08.319
<v Speaker 1>this list. The Fortune one hundred Most Powerful People in

102
00:05:08.439 --> 00:05:12.319
<v Speaker 1>Business list, a couple of locals did nestled in the

103
00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:15.199
<v Speaker 1>middle of the top one hundred. Couple of local names

104
00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:19.959
<v Speaker 1>that wield power. Fidelity Investments CEO A chair Abigail Johnson

105
00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:23.040
<v Speaker 1>ranked forty fourth, which is twenty spots higher than last year.

106
00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:28.079
<v Speaker 1>At number twenty two. Reshma Kuol Romney, a president and

107
00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:31.560
<v Speaker 1>CEO at Vertex Pharmaceuticals, also on the list, as you

108
00:05:31.639 --> 00:05:36.199
<v Speaker 1>might expect, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Nvidia CEO Jensen Wong

109
00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:40.319
<v Speaker 1>topping the list ultra processed foods. We've heard a lot

110
00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:42.879
<v Speaker 1>about them, and we've heard that they're not good for us,

111
00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:45.519
<v Speaker 1>but we haven't stopped eating them.

112
00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:48.639
<v Speaker 8>The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that

113
00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:52.199
<v Speaker 8>most Americans get more than fifty percent of their calories

114
00:05:52.279 --> 00:05:57.399
<v Speaker 8>from ultra processed foods, energy dense foods typically full of sugar, salt,

115
00:05:57.519 --> 00:06:01.040
<v Speaker 8>and unhealthy fats. It's the first time the CDC has

116
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:05.519
<v Speaker 8>confirmed those high levels of consumption using dietary information collected

117
00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:09.079
<v Speaker 8>from August twenty twenty one to August twenty twenty three.

118
00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:12.639
<v Speaker 8>The report says that for young people eighteen and under older,

119
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:16.319
<v Speaker 8>processed foods make up nearly sixty five percent of the

120
00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:20.519
<v Speaker 8>calories they consume each day. For adults, it's about fifty

121
00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:25.519
<v Speaker 8>three percent. The top sources burgers and sandwiches, sweet baked goods,

122
00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:29.600
<v Speaker 8>savory snacks, pizza, and sweetened drinks I'm Donna water.

123
00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:32.480
