The reality is that the sacrifices made by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. — and not just him — and A. Philip Randolph and Bayard Rustin and Whitney Young and others ought never be minimized. Q There’s a lot of racial rhetoric going on in this political campaigning atmosphere. Is there going to be — or am I making a reach in this question — will there be a reach across the aisle to say, “Enough is enough, we’ve got to stop this”?

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre violated the Hatch Act, watchdog says

Is he going to have a message for viewer- — people viewing this in other countries and — and U.S. allies? Because I’m looking at some polling data from the UK. It says that 48 percent of British adults see the West response to Putin and Russia getting worse if the President loses reelection. Over half, 52 percent, say that if the President loses reelection, the West approach to climate change would worsen.

He spoke to many of our allies, whether the King of Jordan, the leaders of Italy, France, Germany, and the UK. And he met — and as I said at the top, he met with our national security team over a dozen times. And he spoke with Bibi — Prime Minister Netanyahu, to be more precise — the third time today.

I also want to talk about something that affects millions of people across the country every day. And with the holiday season upon us, and in the light of the tragic — tragic news about tWitch this week, we think it’s important that we shed light on the resources available to any American dealing with mental health challenges or emotional distress. It’s something that we are dealing with on all three fronts. And you’ve heard Secretary Blinken, obviously, who’s now in Beijing, speak to our concerns with respect to the PRC and its support for Russia’s defense industrial base. And we have been vocal from this podium about both North Korea and Iran, and we’ll continue to be. What I can tell you is what the President has done over the last two years to make sure that we’re dealing with border security.

This week, President Biden and Vice President Harris have had the opportunity to announce new initiatives that will empower African institutions and citizens. And so this is — this is against our most basic values, including respect for the law and the Constitution. And speaking generally, of course — more broadly — of course, high turnout and voter suppression can take place at the same time. They don’t have to be — one doesn’t have to happen on its own.

I’m just not going to get into details on how that’s going to look from now. And again, the President has to handle many things at once, and we saw him do that over the past couple of days, since — certainly, since Saturday. And, you know, the President is able to do multiple things at once, right?

Protect the Public's Trust published its correspondence with the OSC after the agency shared its findings with the group. The agency's communications director, Zachary Kurz, confirmed that the document seen online is authentic. Gosar lost his committee assignments in late 2021 after posting an animated video that depicted him killing Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez with a sword. Economists have warned that if the White House and Congress can’t reach a deal by June, a global financial crisis could follow.

We’re going to let law enforcement authorities do their job. Q Sixty years today, 1963 was a pivotal year in civil rights. Medgar Evers was shot and killed in June of ’63. Two weeks later, four little girls were killed in a Baptist church. Today, the President and the First Lady visited students at Eliot-Hine Middle School in Washington, D.C., to mark the start of the school year.

For Democrats, in particular, California is foundational. The state accounts for nearly a fifth of the electoral votes needed to win the White House — which the party’s nominee typically starts with and looks to build upon — and is far and away the largest source of campaign cash for Democratic candidates and causes nationwide. For well over half a century, the office of California governor has had a sort of magical quality, transforming even the most wooden occupant — think George Deukmejian or Gray Davis — into presidential timber. Newsom should be a very hot commodity right now, especially after beating the recall by such a huge margin. He might conceivably top the list of prospective Democratic presidential candidates touted by political gossips and others who set the early betting line.

Rather than force nominees to endure marathon grilling sessions, senators could consider letting them answer questions over more days. Instead of allowing grandstanding lawmakers to attack nominees without limit or consequence, perhaps they should be confined to asking only questions that are relevant to the proceedings. The complaint accused Jean-Pierre of using her position "to advocate for the defeat of her partisan political opponents" and make derogatory remarks about Republicans. It noted that Jean-Pierre made the remarks from the podium in the White House's press briefing room, less than a week before the Nov. 8 general election. The Biden administration wants the borrowing cap increased without any preconditions. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Tuesday ruled out holding talks with McCarthy.

“Don’t worry if you’re saying the wrong thing. I think what it comes down to is reaching out and making that connection, and I don’t think there’s some such thing as too much love. The 56-year-old also opened up about her own mental health struggles and successes.

One family member of a missing American said that there’s been no formal attempt by the U.S. government to update the families of the missing. As you know, very sadly and tragically, the number of dead has risen with each passing hour. And that’s true of the total number; it’s also true of Americans, which has gone up just today from an earlier report this morning of 12, then 13, now 14. The President has also tasked us with engaging in contingency planning for any and all escalation scenarios. And we are now deeply engaged in that planning.

He also reported from the White House and Capitol Hill during the George H.W. Bush and Clinton administrations. Each supported the other in a conspicuous time of need. Newsom publicly backed Harris’s forlorn presidential campaign. Harris flew to the Bay Area for a homestretch anti-recall rally alongside the governor. Privately, each didn’t mind watching the other squirm just a bit, say those familiar with their personal dynamic.
