Nmrr Mayor Eric Adams on migrant crisis: NYC carrying burden of national problem
Washington mdash; President Biden said Tuesda stanley quencher y that he believes the federal government should pay for the entire cost of the reconstruction of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, which collapsed when a container ship crashed into it earlier Tuesday. It is my intention that the fe stanley mugs deral government will pay for the entire cost of reconstructing that bridge, and I expect the Congress to support my effort, Mr. Biden said in rem stanley cup arks from the White House, adding that he plans to visit Baltimore as soon as he can. To the people of Baltimore, I want to say, we re with you, the president also said. We re going to stay with you as long as it takes. Sen. Chris Van Hollen, a Maryland Democrat, said Mr. Biden has pledged the full support of the federal government. Hollen said it s a top priority to clear the channel under the bridge because thousands of jobs are immediately at stake, which could have a ripple effect on the wider economy. We need to get that channel cleared. And then, of course, replacing the bridge will come next and we re going to have to work very hard to get those resources put together to do the job, he said on CBS News America Decides. So number one, search and rescue. Number two, clear the channel, reopen the port. Number three, rebuild the bridge.

Dan Glickman is living his dream. A Kansas boy who turned a law degree into a varied and exciting political and public service career, he has now come full circle: The chairman of the Motion Picture Association of America has been named a member of the National 4-H Council Board of Trustees. I ve got my foot in the farm and in films, he tells us. It s just his latest appointment: He also now serves on the board of trustees for the American Film Institute, giving him quite an eclectic group of organizations he advises. They re both important, says Glickman, not tryi stanley thermoskannen ng to play favorites. It is kind of ironic that I m both trying to keep the film and farm movements going. Far from the former stylish head of MPAA, the late Jack Valenti, Glickman likes to have a little cow dung on his tuxedo pa stanley botella nts cuff. You might call him a real life Oliver Wendell Douglas, the Eddie Albert character in the old sitcom Green Acres. I used to watch it. I know the song, he brags.Glickman hails from Kansas, was a congressman who held a top spot on the Agriculture Committee, and was Bill Clinton s ag secretary before leaving to run Harvard s John F. Kennedy School of Government. He joined MPAA in 2004 and opened a wide war on movie pirating. I still like to keep my hands in the rural farm world. It also helps me to keep my bearings a bit, he says, explaining why he accepted the appointment. Asked whic copo stanley h 4-H club interests him most--Fowl, Swine, Sheep, etc.

Dtdz Democrats to GOP: Time to Put up or Shut Up
The New Year has brought change and new faces to much of our political landscape, not least on Capitol Hill, where Republicans took control of the Senate this past week. From out of the west, though, a different sight -- a familiar face on the Democratic side taking the oath of office yet again . . . many years after his political debut. John Blackstone reports our Cover Story. Six years ago, the sun appeared to be setting on the California Dream. Plummeting home prices and soaring debt were robbing the Golden State of its luster.

Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton Saturday strengthened her pitch to allow disputed primaries in Michigan and Florida to be counted in the nominating contest, noting the vote totals had been officially recognized in each state. Some say their votes should be ignored and the popular vote in Michigan and Florida should be discounted. Well, I have a different view, Clinton said at a rally here. The popular vote in Florida and Michigan has already been counted.

WASHINGTONmdash; Jeff Sessions was in his office, looking unusually deflated. He had just received stanley kubek another public lashing from President Donald Trump.Trump had browbeaten his attorney general for months after Sessions decision to step aside from the intensifying Russia investigation. Never mind that Sessions has proved fiercely devoted to his boss, carrying out Trump s agenda while giving him credit every step of the way. Trump was unforgiving.This attack came on an autumn day, and Sessions discussed it with a longtime friend and adviser who had stopped by to chat. Sessions shrugged. I do the best I can, he said. Then he got back to work.And, somewhat surprisingly, he s still working. Sessions will soon mark his fi stanley uk rst year on the job, having survived a barrage of insults from Trump, antipathy from some Justice Depar botella stanley tment employees and even calls from some fellow Republicans for him to resign.

Mayor Frank Melton came into office in Jackson, Mississippi, a bit like a Wild West marshal sworn to clean up the town. But somewhere along the line, prosecutors say, the crimefighting mayor crossed over from lawman to vigilante.The 56-year-old Melton was indicted last week on malicious-mischief and burglary charges, accused of leading a group of teenagers with sledgehammers in smashing up a house that he claimed was a drug den. He was also charged with carrying a gun on school property. If found guilty, Melton could get up to 50 years in prison.

Enil Prosecutor says Donald Trump knew about his company s alleged tax fraud scheme
Public support and use of the death penalty in 2022 continued their more than two-decade decline in the U.S., and many of the executions that were carried out during the year were botched or highly problematic, an annual report on capital punishment says. There were 18 executions in the U.S. in 2022, the fewest in any pre-pandemic year since 1991. There were 11 executions last year. Outside of the pandemic years, the 20 death sentences handed out in 2022 were the fewest in any year in the U.S. in stanley cup a half-century, according to the report by the Washington, D.C.-based Death Penalty Information Center. All the indicators point to the continuing decline in capital punishment and the movement away from the death penalty is durable, said Robert Dunham, executive director of the nonprofit, which takes no position on capital punishment but has criticized the way states carry out executions. In the U.S., 37 states have abolished the death penalty or not carried out an execution in more than a decade. On Tuesday, Oregon Gov. Kate Brown commuted the sentences of all 17 of the state s death row inmates to life in prison without parole. Oregon last executed a prisoner in 1997.

Make more than $250,000 a year Watch out. Barack Obama wants to raise your income taxes. Social Security taxes, too.Run a corporation Lucky you. John McCain wants to cut your business taxes.Those positions illustrate pieces of two vastly different approaches to the economy, an issue at the forefront of voters minds given that the country is teetering on the brink of - if not already in - a recession as gas prices soar and layoffs rise amid a credit crisis and a housing slump. Obama, the Democrat, seemingly has a traditional liberal outlook of taxing the rich more while having the government help people of more modest means through tax breaks. McCain, the Republican, advocates a classic conservative vi stanley thermos mug sion of cutting taxes - many geared toward businesses - to promote competition within a free-market system.Neither plan is cheap. The Tax Policy Center, a nonpartisan joint project of the Brookings Institution and the Urban Institute, gives a preliminary estimate that over the next decade, McCain s tax proposals would reduce federal revenues $3.7 trillion while Obama s cuts would amount to $2.7 trillion.The center said the cuts would slice roughly 10 percent and 7 percent, respectively, of the federal re stanley cup price venues scheduled for collection under current law.
