Worth noting in part due to the prevalence of assault & abuse in the highest realms of power right now: I will never, ever forget James is one of the few to *ever* hold anyone to account in the wake of #MeToo. From my book Burn It Down, what AG James & her office did regarding CBS & Les Moonves:

From Maureen Ryan's book Burn It Down: More fodder for that argument came in late 2022 from New York Attorney
General Letitia James, whose office announced a $30.5 million
settlement in relation to a series of #MeToo-related
cover-ups
emanating
from the highest levels of CBS. After being tipped off by a Los Angeles
Police Department captain about sexual assault allegations filed
against then-CEO
Leslie Moonves, the network’s executives, including
Moonves, worked in 2017 and 2018 “to prevent the complaint from
becoming public,” the AG’s office noted. This is infuriatingly ironic,
given that CBS made a fortune from crime procedurals that tended to
condemn, if not vilify, anyone who broke the law. But we’ve all seen
enough to know that the rule of law and the imperatives of commonsense
decency are frequently disregarded when it comes to powerful
industry figures.
“CBS and its senior leadership knew about multiple allegations

of sexual assault made against Mr. Moonves and intentionally concealed
those allegations from regulators, shareholders, and the public
for months,” James said in a statement, adding that “CBS and Leslie
Moonves’ attempts to silence victims, lie to the public, and mislead
investors can only be described as reprehensible.” According to the settlement
agreement, at an industry event in November 2017—the day
Matt Lauer was fired from NBC, in fact—Moonves
declared, “There’s
a lot we didn’t know.” I thought I detected a note of lawyerly fury in
the next sentences of the legal document James’s office made public
November 2, 2022: “That statement was misleading as it implied that
Moonves and CBS were just learning of problems with workplace harassment
at CBS, when, in truth, Moonves and other top CBS executives
were actively seeking to conceal and suppress allegations” about
Moonves himself.

I feel like a broken record, but I have to keep saying it over and over again: a farmer bailout won’t do much of anything because the market is gone. There will be no incentive to plant next year.

The bailout will help payoff farmer debt to the banks. That’s all.

Shapiro: I filed that amicus brief last night to make it very clear that the Pennsylvania National Guard is under my command.

The way the President has chosen to deploy the Guard in other states—and, in at least one case, deploy the Guard from one state into another—is extremely dangerous.

RFK JR: There are many other confirmations -- there are two studies that show children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism. It’s highly likely because they are given Tylenol
