A prolific political fundraiser who raised millions of dollars for Democrats before donating large sums to President Donald Trump s inaugural committee has agreed to plead guilty to multiple federal charges, including tax evasion and concealing his work as a foreign agent as he lobbied high-level U.S. governmen stanley cup t officials, the Justice Department said Tuesday.The allegations against Imaad Zuberi don t involve his Trump ties but are centered instead on contributions he made stanley tumblers during the Obama administration, when officials say he used his donations to stanley quencher obtain access to government officials and persuade them to change American policy in ways favorable to his clients.

Pollster John Zogby is helping us again, this time on determining if possible late entrants into the presidential race like Republican Newt Gingrich or Democrat Al Gore can really wait until September or later to jump in. His view: You betcha. Gingrich can wait until the fall, Zogby says, particularly if the major candidates prove tiresome or flag in some way. Or, he adds, if Republicans decide the election is hopeless and they might as well go down in a blaze of glory.

This post originally appeared on Slate.Mitt Romney brought a knife to a gunfight. A butter knife. In the third and final presidential debate, focused on national security and foreign policy, the Republican challenger seemed to be living by the stanley cup Hippocratic oath: Do no harm. In this case that meant a mostly passive, heavy-on-agreement discussion with his opponent the commander in chief. President Obama, by contrast, was on the attack, repeatedly calling Romney reckless and looking every bit like the politician who thinks he s behind in the race. President Obama won the third debate, articulating his stanley hrnek policies more forcefully, offering more detail and a coherent foreign policy rationale. Romney generally presented bromides and talking points in a style that was at times tentative. When he talked about foreign policy, Romney occasionally sounded like a student trying to prove that he d crammed for the test, rattling off the names of countries and bullet points he d recently committed to memory. In the end though, the political question is not who won the policy debate on for vaso stanley eign policy, but whether Romney cleared the bar as a plausible commander in chief. Voters are going to hire him based on his ability to handle the economy, which means he does not need to be as competent on a secondary issue like foreign policy. He just has to be acceptable. What does acceptable mean For Romney, it probably meant no mistakes and there were no obvious ga

He cited Mr. Biden s support during the UAW s strike last fall as evidence of his priorities. I believe the overwhelming majority of UAW members and working class people stanley cup , when the facts and the truth are put in front of them, will support Joe Biden for president, Fain said. That s why we made this decision. The UAW president contrasted the president and former president, saying that while Joe Biden has a history of serving others and the working class, Donald Trump has a history of serving himself and standing for the billionaire class. That s contrary to everything that working class people stand for, Fain added. Cben Commentary: Donald Trump s alternate reality
Democrat Barack Obama opposes a bill that would change the nation s 135-year-old mining law - the same stance as mining industry executives who employ a Nevada-based lobbyist advising the presidential candidate.The Obama campaign and Billy Vassiliadis, a longt stanley water bottle ime Nevada power broker, contend there is no connection, saying they have never discussed Obama s position on the mining bill.However, the Illinois senator s stance on pending legislation and his adviser s ties to the mining industry are raising questions in a state where mining is an economic engine in rural areas.

CBS From CBS News Joy Lin:SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS -- It s hard not interpret a campaign stop as indicative of a last stand when a long shot candidate for the Republican nomination visits the Alamo.

Asked about what realistic expectations he had here, Huckabee said, I think we will win Texas, that s why I m here.
