Congress returns to full session for the first time on Wednesday as lawmakers grapple with the fallout from recent bank failures and try to avoid a full-scale financial crisis.
The sudden and rapid collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank is still reeling from the financial sector's aftermath amid economic uncertainty and significant risks for other banks.
Internationally, Chinese President Xi Jinping will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin as the war in Ukraine continues in an apparent show of support. Xi's visit could be an escalation of tensions between East and West, as US officials warn that China could provide military support to Russia in its invasion of Ukraine.

On the Mind of Congress: Preventing Another SV
Another catastrophic SVB-style failure will be on the minds of MPs this week, especially as a new study has revealed that 186 banks are at risk of SVB-style failure if only half of depositors withdraw their funds. .
There is bipartisan agreement among lawmakers that Congress must act in a way to prevent a full-scale financial crisis — it's unclear how.
House Financial Services Committee Chairman Patrick McHenry, R-North Carolina, told CBS' "Face the Nation" on Sunday that "all options are on the table" when it comes to responding to the crisis.
'It's a call': Advocacy groups and MPs highlight law they say led to SVB's collapse
"All options have to be on the table and that's how I approach it," McHenry said, adding that the focus now is on the cause of the bank's failure.
The Federal Reserve announced Monday it would conduct an internal review of Silicon Valley Bank's oversight and regulation, but Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren called for an independent investigation on ABC's "This Week" Sunday.
"I demand that the Fed and the entire regulatory system conduct an independent investigation here. The Fed cannot conduct its own investigation," Warren said.
China to meet Russia in apparent show of support for Ukraine war
Chinese President Xi Jinping will meet Russian President Vladimir Putin from Monday to Wednesday in what appears to be a show of support for Russia's continued invasion of Ukraine, a move that could have serious geopolitical consequences amid tensions growing between West and East.
China has refused to condemn Moscow as Ukraine continues to resist Russian aggression, trying to portray itself as a neutral third party when so many Western leaders support Ukraine.
Xi's visit comes as US officials have repeatedly warned of the possibility of China arming Russia with military aid. White House spokesman John Kirby urged Xi to also meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and warned China to seek a unilateral peace deal.

The investigation into the financial silence of former President Donald Trump in Manhattan may enter a new phase. before the 2016 elections.
Joe Tacopina, Trump's attorney, told USA TODAY in an email that Trump's announcement did not include any contact with the Manhattan District Attorney's Office.
Criminal charges against a former president would be unprecedented, especially with Trump running for the White House in 2024.
The Manhattan probe is just one of many legal investigations implicating Trump, including probes into his efforts to overturn the 2020 election and his handling of classified documents.
What we know: Is Donald Trump in danger of being arrested soon? will he charge?
As the crackdown on popular social media app TikTok gains traction on Capitol Hill, the app's CEO, Shou Zi Chew, will testify before Congress for the first time on Thursday.
Lawmakers are increasingly concerned about the app's parent company, ByteDance, given its ties to the Chinese government. FBI Director Christopher Wray testified before the Senate Intelligence Committee that the app "screams with national security concerns."
Chew will testify before the House Energy and Commerce Committee and is expected to be questioned about the app's data security practices and how aggressively it handles users' private data.

Now that Donald J. With Trump and the J6 Prison Choir kicking off Miley Cyrus' new song, "Justice For All," and the world waiting to see if the former president is arrested, it seems like a good time to think about how business leaders are navigating the strange new world of politics. ( Be on the lookoutfor insider hoaxes that are already circulating ) .
Balancing political preferences and career priorities is an easier task when everyone agrees on common principles such as freedom of choice and the rule of law. But what happens when the party promoting all these tax breaks and pro-business policies also falls into populist rhetoric and anti-democratic actions?
A mixed bag in Modi's India
This is what we are now seeing from leaders like Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, whose Bharatiya Janata Party has been called "the world's most important foreign policy party" by academic Walter Russell Mead. Modi's aggressive pursuit of economic and structural reforms was accompanied by rhetoric and policies that damaged Long India's reputation as a secular and pluralistic society, particularly its Muslim and Christian minorities.
So when I talk to business leaders about India, a country I love and have visited many times in my career, they often express concern about the rise of Hindu nationalism rather than curiosity about the structural improvements they would like to see in the young country. : and this diversity. should be interesting. 1.4 billion people. Fraud allegations against billionaire Gautam Adani have soured his close relationship with Modi, although shareholder William Pesek believes he could eventually help the country's reform process.
Israel is fighting Netanyahu
Look to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to see what can happen when a national leader accused of corruption takes office. The four-time national leader formed a right-wing coalition government while still facing allegations of fraud and breach of trust. This was one of his first steps. reform the country's legal system, essentially stripping the Supreme Court of its real powers. The proposal was so bold and undemocratic that even the nation's air force pilots joined mass protests. (Netanyahu appears to have softened his strongman tactics under anger and pressure from allies.)
I recently spoke with Amit Benadov, CEO and co-founder of Gong.io, who believes the law will harm Israel's democracy and economic future. He compared it to two wolves and a sheep deciding what to eat for dinner. ( Hint: the sheep lose ) "I really thought it would tear the country apart, out of politics," Bendoff said. Politics, like we have to be on the West Coast. This is a game changer, a change in the constitution.

Latest news about "Maximum Xi" and "Rogue Russia".
In terms of direct geopolitical risks, Russia and China continue to be the biggest external threats facing American companies. Despite the human tragedy and upheaval caused by the war in Ukraine, there are signs of growing alliances and hostility toward America. When China intervened to broker a deal between Saudi Arabia and Iran, it was no surprise that American companies rushed to establish their supply chains in other parts of the world.
I can't think of a better person to understand what's going on on this front than Jan Bremer, a well-known political scientist and head of the Eurasia Group. Click through the interview above for his thoughts.
America's Missing Link
Perhaps the most difficult challenge for American companies, large and small, is navigating the polarized political climate at home. The tone of a centrist leader like New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu doesn't evoke as much emotion as an angry, gruff look. (Here's an interview with Sununu about the political situation and his interest in running for the GOP.) Also, in an era of loyalty politics, throwing arrows both ways might make him think you didn't. team
So what's a business leader to do? Some have taken positions on key issues, such as supporting abortion coverage for workers or pledging to hire refugees, even matching them with military veterans.
Others prefer to double down on their beliefs and even seek out like-minded employees and customers who share the same views. (Red Balloon CEO Andrew Krabochit has created a site where Trump supporters can find jobs, though he insists his approach is for people on both sides of the political spectrum.)
Is this the solution to the rise of extremism and political anger? Hopefully not. Need can be a difficulty to discover and fear is a father that can prevent it. Let's keep the conversation going and have a great week!
Money is also often a factor not only in elections, but also in what motivates our elected officials and how they spend their time. Also, the loopholes to hide money and avoid detection are like a broken dam that swallows up anyone in a smooth stream… you and me. This is a threat to our democracy.
As the nation embarks on another frenzy of political fundraising and spending, we must end this arms race. According to Open Secrets, federal spending for the 2020 election totaled $14.4 billion. That's double what it was four years ago, and almost five times what it was twenty years ago. Open Secrets reports that "soft" money spent by SuperPACs and "dark" money groups that don't disclose their donors accounted for about $3.3 billion of that total.
And just wait until 2024. In the 2022 midterm elections, excluding presidential races, federal and state races totaled $16.7 billion, a new midterm record, according to Open Secrets.
Winning a Senate seat in a swing state can now cost nearly half a billion dollars. More than $491 million was spent on the 2022 Georgia Senate race. More than $418 million was spent in Pennsylvania.
And all these expenses were controlled by a small part of our citizens. About 75% of the money in federal tenders came from the elite class of donors: 0.52% of Americans, according to Open Secrets. In other words, it is undemocratic.
PACs and super PACs are a growing electoral nexus. And what they give is in proportion to what they receive. Financial institutions and healthcare PACs are major contributors, and in both cases 95% of their donations go to operating organizations. While most polls show that about 20% of Americans support and respect our Congress, should we be surprised that every member of the House and Senate won in the last election?
More and more "games" are controlled by "dark money" players who use super PACs to avoid detection. Individuals and foreign governments can and do use the same dark money channels and methods that billionaires, global corporations and major alliances use to hide the source of their funding.
Now anyone with enough money can set up and manage campaign spending through various LLCs, "nonprofit welfare agencies" and super PACs with fancy names so that voters or state and federal election officials know where their money is. to know arrived
It has become a national security issue that must be addressed by both sides.
As you understand, money drives the actions of our representatives. Bidders who spend the most almost always win as fundraising pressure mounts. From day one, members of Congress spent half their time (and in many cases more) serving constituents rather than fundraising, building relationships, and researching policy. Citizens temporarily relinquish their roles in private society and then, as described in the Federalist Papers, completely lose opportunities for career growth and prosperity.
Our elected officials work primarily for our benefit, so there is no confusion.
Americans no longer believe that the government is responsible for their interests. They see it as promoting the interests of those who can pay to play. Recent Supreme Court decisions place a direct obligation on us to address this issue through a constitutional amendment. That's why we're part of America's Promise, a group of more than 100,000 professionals, elected officials, business owners, volunteers and advocates working for our freedom to pass a constitutional amendment to limit political spending. :
Americans are united in this idea. A 2018 University of Maryland poll found that 75% of the public, including 66% of Republicans, supported the change. A recent CBS News poll found that 86% of Republicans and Democrats who agree that democracy is under threat cite the influence of money in politics as the main cause of that threat.
Our forefathers in their wisdom laid the groundwork for amending the constitution in such cases and we have done so many times. Shortly after the founding of the nation, we adopted the Bill of Rights. As a result of the Civil War, we passed amendments that outlawed slavery and protected the rights of former slaves. We made changes that included strengthening women's suffrage and civil rights.
With this change, we can decide for ourselves how best to protect our voters, our elections, and our future from the influence of unregulated money from all sources, including foreign governments. We will be able to stop the black game and demand the disclosure of the sources of financing of campaigns and election campaigns. We should at least know who is trying to shoot our politicians and our government.
This is another constitutional moment when Americans recognize that our representative democracy must be preserved and strengthened for civic trust, national unity, and constructive problem solving. It is time to take action to ensure that Americans have the freedom to participate as fairly represented citizens and an honest voice about the power of concentrated wealth.

WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden's support of a Republican resolution to block new crime laws in the District of Columbia has divided his party amid growing concerns about crime in the nation's capital and other cities.
The GOP-led veto is expected to pass easily in the Senate on Wednesday with broad Democratic support. But most House Democrats voted against it last month, saying, as they have for years, that the District of Columbia should be able to govern itself.
Democratic support for the resolution, billed as a killing spree in Washington, DC, has been on the rise for several years, is a game-changer for Biden and his party, and could allow Congress to repeal city ordinances. the first time in more than three years. contracts
A look at the politics and precedent of Wednesday's Senate vote on DC's criminal laws:
New provincial laws
The DC Penal Code overhaul was approved by the DC Council late last year after years of failed efforts. It will change the definition of crimes, change criminal justice policy and reform post-conviction sentencing procedures. It would also eliminate mandatory minimum sentences for many crimes and reduce the maximum sentences for burglary, auto theft and theft.
Mayor Muriel Bowser vetoed the bill in January, writing in a letter that she had "very serious concerns" about some of the bill's proposals. He then proposed changes after the board overturned his veto. "Anytime there's a policy that reduces fines, I think it sends the wrong signal," he said.
There were 203 murders in the country in 2022, down 10% after several years of steady growth. The city's homicide rate has risen for four consecutive years, reaching 227 in 2021, the highest rate since 2003. The city's police union said in a statement that the changes "will lead to increased violent crime." even more than it already is.
Washington's penal code has not been significantly modernized since it was first written in 1901, and criminal justice experts say blacks have been disproportionately affected by penal laws, as they have been in many other cities.
THE PUSHBBBBACK EXERCISE GOES DOUBLE
The new penal code is scheduled to enter into force in October 2025. But to become law, it must go through a 60-day review period, during which Congress and the president can overturn it, through a 1970 law called Home Rule. Deed. . Although Congress has placed various restrictions on the District of Columbia through spending bills over the years, no formal denial process has been used since 1991.
As the new House GOP majority made increasing crime a political priority, the House passed a resolution last month, voting 250-173 to strike down the amendments to the law. DC Criminal Court, with 31 Democrats voting with Republicans. However, most Democrats opposed the decision after the White House issued a political statement against the law.
The White House did not specifically say that Biden would veto the measure. But the statement says the White House opposes it and that the decision is an example of "how the District of Columbia continues to deny true home rule and why it deserves statehood." And as we work to make Washington, DC, the 51st state of our union, Congress must respect DC's autonomy in managing its local affairs.
While awaiting a vote in the Senate, Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky repeatedly criticized Biden and Democrats for taking on the White House.
Should we go soft on crime, as the Democrats want, at the local, state and federal level? McConnell said in February. Or should we get tougher on crime, as the Republicans and Americans want?
biden pivot
As the bill was expected to pass the Senate, Biden and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, DNY, remained silent. Then, at a dinner for Democrats last week, the president surprised senators by saying he would sign the Republican resolution if it reached his desk.
"If I accept it, I will sign it," Biden said in a private meeting.
Not only was this a reversal of DC's actions after his administration objected, but it was also a reversal of the longstanding Democratic position that DC should govern itself and that the federal government should not interfere to change its laws .
Biden later tweeted that he supports statehood in DC, but "I don't support some of the changes the DC council made over the mayor's objections, like lowering car theft fines."
bad democrats
Biden's decision, weeks before he announced his re-election campaign and Republicans viciously attacked Democrats over the city's crime rate, angered some House Democrats who opposed the move after the White House initially opposed it.
"We need to make sure the Senate understands all the implications of closing local decision-making, especially for the District of Columbia, which does not have such representation," said Stephen Horsford, president of the Black Congress.
Eleanor Holmes Norton, a non-voting House representative, said the revision of the criminal code is "very important" and is the result of years of work by lawmakers, criminal justice experts, officials and nonprofit organizations dedicated to criminals.
DC President Phil Mendelsohn even announced the withdrawal of the bill in a last ditch effort to derail the Senate vote. But Democrats said the vote was on a resolution the House rejected, not the initial transfer from the House to the Senate.
Some Democratic senators have made it clear they will continue to vote against the resolution.
Elizabeth Warren, a senator from Massachusetts, said that "any attempt to advance this vote is simply an attempt to trample the District of Columbia."
But Biden's endorsement appeared to be backed by most senators from his party, many of whom noted that Mayor Bowser was opposed.
"We heard from the sheriff of the District of Columbia that there is still a lot of work to be done," said Debbie Stabenow, a senator from Michigan, who said she would vote for the Republican measure.
Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia said he would support him because "crime is rampant across the country."
Schumer announced on Tuesday that he would vote for him as well.
"I will vote in favor," Schumer told reporters. "It was a tough question, but overall I vote yes."

Republican Leaders Interview Former Twitter Executives About Hunter Biden Story | USA News Live
Sir Keir Starmer accused Rishi Sunak of being "completely misled" by his small boat policy as they squabbled over the Prime Minister's questions.
The Labor leader said the government's latest asylum proposals were "more talk, more shenanigans, more broken promises".
But the Prime Minister defended the plans, saying: "Stopping the ships is not just my priority, it's the people's priority."
He accused the Labor leader of being "just another left-wing advocate standing in our way" against efforts to tackle the issue.
Controversial new proposals to tackle crossing the English Channel, unveiled by Home Secretary Soela Braverman on Tuesday, would result in asylum seekers being removed and barred from returning if they entered the UK illegally.
The Illegal Immigration Bill has caused an uproar in the House of Commons and beyond, critics are calling it "unworkable" and will desert thousands of immigrants and prevent them from claiming British citizenship.
The UN refugee agency called on parliamentarians and colleagues to block the "profound" plan, while British rights group Amnesty International said it was nothing "fair, humane or even practical", calling it a "shocking new low".
Defending the proposed law at a press conference in Dover on Tuesday, Sunak vowed to deport migrants who entered the UK illegally "within weeks".
The government is likely to face legal challenges over the bill as it is accused of failing to fulfill the UK's obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).

PMQs are currently pending in the House of Commons.
Opening for Mr Sunak on International Women's Day, she said: "At home we are making great strides to ensure equal opportunities for women, such as B. Mandatory reporting of wage discrepancies and the Domestic Violence Act.
"And internationally, today we are launching a new strategy for women and girls that puts them at the center of everything we do."
Rishi Sunak says he will release his tax returns "very soon".
12:08 , Lydia Chanteler Hicks
Leeds Labor MP Richard Bergon first urged the Prime Minister to release his tax return as he had previously promised.
He asked: "People want transparency in our politics… Why hasn't the Prime Minister published his tax returns?"
Mr Sunak responded by saying: "As I have already confirmed, I will publish my tax returns and that will be very soon."
Union leader questions PM's plans to tackle illegal immigration
12:14 , Lydia Shantel Hicks
Labor leader Sir Keir Starmer questioned the Prime Minister about plans to tackle illegal immigration.
"In the last decade, this government has introduced five anti-illegal immigration schemes, five of which have failed utterly," Sir Keir said, addressing the Prime Minister on PMQs.
“The problem gets worse with every new step. The home secretary said the public was tired of tough talks and inadequate action. Would [the Prime Minister] agree with his assessment of the performance of this government?"
"We will ensure that it remains a good and decent country," said the prime minister
12:16 , Lydia Chanteler Hicks
Responding to a question from the Labor leader, Sunak said Sir Keir "didn't realize there was a global migration problem".
"We are not alone in fighting these problems and as their numbers increase across Europe, we have come up with new plans," the prime minister said.
He added: "We are determined to ensure that this country remains kind and generous and that it does so fairly and legally." That is why we will break up criminal gangs.
"We have announced new deals with Albania and France, stricter enforcement of immigration rules and now new laws making it clear that if you come here illegally you can be quickly arrested and deported."
He then accused the Labor Party of pursuing a policy of "open immigration and unlimited asylum".
Sunak describes Starmer as "another left-wing lawyer who gets in our way" when they face each other in the House of Commons.
12:34 , Lydia Chanteler Hicks
The Prime Minister called the Labor leader "just another left-wing lawyer standing in our way".
His comment came as Sir Keir Sunak pressed figures and asked him how many illegal immigrants were deported from the UK last year.
"Mr. President, when I was presiding over the trial … the conviction rate for people smuggling was twice as high as it is today," he said.
Defending the government's progress on the matter, Sunak said: "As a result of the plans that we have put forward, we have almost doubled the number of people who have returned this year… precisely because of legislation passed by the Conservative government last year." Year. Year arrest more than twice as many as previously detained, 397 people in the past six months.
Sir Keir then accused the Prime Minister of not answering his question.
"He knows the number. He claimed it was 21." "Twenty-one people out of 18,000. What happens to the rest? They live in hotels and dig for months at taxpayers' expense.
“Last year he promised to stop the hotel farce. But because of the prevailing chaos, there are thousands of people who cannot apply for asylum and cannot be deported. So where do you think they're going?'
Union leaders call PM 'completely misguided'
12:39 , Lydia Shantel Hicks
Sir Keir accused the Prime Minister of being "completely delusional" about his boating policy.
"Last year he stood there and said the same thing," he said. “We said it wouldn't work, they passed the law and the numbers went up. Totally misled."
"He can't say where they're going to come back to. They can't say how they're going to get people back. He can't say when they'll fix the mess."
Rishi Sunak says "hundreds" have been sent back to Albania
12:41 , Lydia Chanteler Hicks
The Prime Minister has dismissed claims by Sir Keir Starmer that the government had failed to strike deals with other countries that would repatriate illegal migrants.
"We have repatriation agreements with India, Pakistan, Serbia, Nigeria and now especially Albania where we are returning hundreds of people," Sunak said.
“Our position on this is clear: if you come here illegally you cannot seek asylum here, you cannot access the modern system of slavery and you cannot create fake people. . claims to rights”.
He questioned the Prime Minister about what the new law would mean for sex trafficking victims.
12:45Lydia Chanteler Hicks
The leader of the SNP Westminster asked the Prime Minister if the Illegal Immigration Act meant women trafficked to the UK for sex on a small boat would not enjoy the protections of modern slavery.
Stephen Flynn said in the House of Commons: "On International Women's Day I can ask the Prime Minister to reconfirm that under his proposed new asylum laws, women who are trafficked by a criminal gang on a small boat bound for Britain will not receive protection under our modern slavery laws ?
Rishi Sunak replied: "Just because we want to focus our resources and compassion on the world's most vulnerable people, we need to take control of this system, make sure we control our borders, make sure our system and resources don't." are overwhelmed so we can help those who need it most.
"There's nothing right, there's nothing pitiful about maintaining a system where, as we've recently seen, people die during these transitions. That's wrong. And our plans don't allow for that."
'Victims of sex trafficking will not be protected,' says MP, calling government plan 'an absolute disgrace'
12:47 p.m. , Lydia Chanteler Hicks
Stephen Flynn asked Rishi Sunak if his government was inspired by "Nigel Farage or Enoch Powell".
The leader of the SNP Westminster told MPs: "I would take that as a yes from the Prime Minister that women who are victims of human trafficking are not protected by our modern slavery laws. A complete and utter disgrace.”
But that may come as a surprise, but it shouldn't necessarily be because it's the Tory government that has been talking about the raids for the past few months.
“Literally yesterday the Tory Government said 100 million people could come to these beaches and this Tory Government said this morning the number could be in the billions. Complete and utter nonsense.
"May I then ask the prime minister whose government is inspired, Nigel Farage or Enoch Powell?"
The Prime Minister called the migration crisis a global problem
12:49Lydia Chanteler Hicks
Rishi Sunak said the number of 100 million asylum seekers came not from the government but from the UN.
In response to SNP Westminster leader Stephen Flynn, the Prime Minister said: "What nonsense.
"Actually, the figure of 100 million … doesn't come from the government, it comes from the UN, and it shows the scale of the global migration crisis that the world is facing, so it's right that we act because if we don't." do, the numbers will continue to rise.
They have more than quadrupled in size in just two years. This is a sign of the future and our system will continue to collapse.
"If that happens, we will not be able to help people who desperately need our support, generosity and compassion."
The former Conservative minister has criticized the UK-US extradition deal
12:51 , Lydia Chanteler Hicks
A former Conservative minister has called the UK-US extradition deal a "distortion of justice" that needs to be fixed.
David Davies told the House of Commons: "Since it came into force in 2003, the US has extradited 83 people to the UK and we have sent 225 to the US. Three quarters of these related to non-criminal acts. alleged crimes that are mostly white. the neck of crime.
"At the heart of the extradition treaty lies a fundamental injustice and this was demonstrated by Anne Sakoulas' refusal to appear in court for the murder of Harry Dunn."
MPs Haltemprice and Howden said many extraditions to the UK have had "unfair repercussions" in the US, adding: "It's important to get it right. Will the Prime Minister review this treaty to correct this farce of justice?”
Rishi Sunak replied: "It is clearly in our national interest to have effective extradition reporting and under the agreement we have with the US we have ensured the extradition and subsequent prosecution of terrorists, murderers, rapists and pedophiles."
“I would like to meet with him to discuss this matter further. As you know, I believe the United States has denied one extradition request from the United Kingdom and the United Kingdom has denied 27 extradition requests, but I know he is concerned and I would be happy. to meet with him to discuss further.'
The Liberal Democrat leader speaks about a woman who died after being taken to hospital due to ambulance delays
12:54 , Lydia Chanteler Hicks
Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey has told the story of a woman who passed out in an emergency room and died after being taken to hospital after an ambulance was late.
Sir Ed told the Commons: "When Jane called 999 she was told she would be waiting at least eight hours for an ambulance. So she got in the car and drove to Eastbourne District Hospital.”
I paid for parking and made it to the emergency room entrance, where I collapsed. Geno died an hour later.
“No one should lose their mother or grandmother like this. Should the Prime Minister apologize to Jane's family and all those who have lost loved ones to the appalling delays in state ambulances?
Rishi Sunak replied, "Of course my thoughts are with Jane and Jane's family for what happened. It is absolutely right that we continue to make strides in improving A&E's performance.'

The Prime Minister refuses to say whether Mo Farah will be deported from the UK under the new rules
12:58 , Lydia Chanteler Hicks
When asked, the prime minister did not say whether Olympian Sir Mo Farah would be deported under the new asylum plans.
Imran Hussain, Labor MP for Bradford East, said: "Under the government's pathetic new far-right anti-refugee bill, those entering the UK illegally are still being deported.
"Could the Prime Minister clarify whether Sir Mo Farah, who gallantly revealed last year that he was smuggled into the UK as a child, has been deported under this law?"
Rishi Sunak said: “It is precisely because we want to help the world's most vulnerable that we must prevent our system from being exploited and overburdened by illegal migrants who are smuggled here by criminal gangs.
"There's nothing pitiful, there's nothing fair about lobbying to preserve this system, so our new laws are the right way to deal with this problem."

13:04 , Lydia Chantel Hicks
Conservative MP Natalie Elphick has urged the Prime Minister to do more on the French side of the canal to prevent asylum seekers from crossing in small boats.
Highlighting the Prime Minister's work on "tackling illegal immigration", the MP for Dover asked: "The Prime Minister will meet President Macron this week.
He asked: "Can I ask you to find out what else can be done to deal with illegal immigration drivers around small boats, particularly those who are pushing those boats around the French coasts and those boats from the push French coasts into the French sea? "
Rishi Sunak said: "There is no single lever that will solve this problem and it is right that we are working on different things that will make a difference, including working closely with the French."
He clarified the cooperation agreement with France, adding that he hopes "to strengthen this cooperation and to contribute to this discussion on Friday".

PMQs: Rishi Sunak should apologize for 'deadly mess' with ambulance wait times, Starmer asks
One thing I have noticed in my years of reporting on how energy works at the California Capitol is how much it cuts down on families.
Legislative seats often pass from parent to child or from husband to wife. Five members of Los Angeles County's legendary Calderón family , including three brothers, a son and current Assemblywoman Lisa Calderón, wife of a former Assemblywoman, have served in the Legislature. And a few years ago, Assemblywoman Blanca Rubio and State Sen. Susan Rubio made history as California's first team of sister legislators .
So, the story of Assemblywoman Mia Bonta and her husband Lic. Gen. Rob Bonta is famous and boring at the same time.
Both Democrats from Alameda, Bay Area, Mia Bonta was elected to fill the Assembly seat held by her husband, Rob Bonta, after he was named attorney general in 2021. The two have been in the news for the past few weeks when reporters questioned whether it was ethical for Assemblyman Bonta to control taxpayer funds for the office of Att. General Good. Mia Bonta chaired the Assembly Budget Committee, which dealt with public safety, which was under the jurisdiction of the Judiciary, headed by her husband.
Political theorists expressed concern about the arrangement, and editorials criticized legislative leaders for their apparent conflict of interest . Even Chuck Todd, moderator of NBC News' Meet the Press , had his say .
“It's a bad image and it will only reinforce what happens when you have unilateral power,” NBC Sacramento correspondent Ashley Zavala said after reporting the story.
In the end, the parliamentarian announced that he would depart from the decision of the Ministry of Forests and Justice . A few days later, the department was formalized when the budget president transferred oversight of the judiciary to another subcommittee. The conflict seems to have been resolved immediately.
Mia Bonta assures that her position has been approved by the Ethics Congress and that she has been challenged to promote transparency and avoid confusion.
"Certainly, I think you have to watch it carefully," he told me.
However, a broader question arises. Where should the line be drawn between the common interests of public servants who are family members and their personal responsibilities?
In addition to many family members serving together in the legislature, several state legislators have spouses who serve in the legislature onpolicy issues or work in publicly funded local governments.
"I don't see these situations as different from certain situations," said Mia Bonta.
Vanata refers to himself as a life partner and a service partner. They have shared a passion for social justice since they met their freshman year at Yale. And they used their office to achieve the same goal.
Assemblyman Bonta wrote a bill last year to create a new division within the Justice Department to study gun violence prevention policies. Within months of ending up in the Legislature, she joined her husband in announcing that his department would still create a new office , but it did not spark any controversy.
But before Mia Bantan was elected to the Assembly, I reported on a couple's financial dealings that some experts say were legal but unethical. As a parishioner, Rob Bonta created a non-profit foundation and collected donations from organizations that lobby the legislature. He then made payments from the fund to the nonprofit organization where his wife worked. (He claimed the $25,000 as a loan when I asked him about it in 2020, even though his tax return at the time didn't show it.)
This isn't the first time Rob Bonta has sent money to Mia Bonta's employer. For several years, he donated money from his campaign funds to organizations he worked for and received letters saying parties would not use the funds to pay his salary because state law prohibits politicians from using campaign funds for personal gain. . He also asked interest groups to make donations to non-profit organizations for which he worked. "We're working on areas that share our passion," he told me at the time.
After my presentation, Rob Bonta resigned from his foundation's board of directors and introduced new rules that prohibit both members of a couple from making spending and donation decisions to organizations where one of them works. And California's political watchdog approved a new rule that requires officials to disclose their affiliation with an organization when asking donors to give money to a group hired or controlled by that official, their employees or their family members.
“These are impacts or relationships to potential initiatives that the public wants to know about,” commission staff said in a report .
Jessica Levinson, a professor at Loyola Law School and former chair of the Los Angeles Ethics Commission, said officials should not send money to companies where family members work because of the potential for personal gain.
In other cases, he says, it's not always clear where to draw the line.
"When it comes to these potential conflicts of interest or ethical issues, we all worry that someone in public service is making a decision in the best interest of their spouse, their child or their friend, but not all of us," he said. saying. . . "At the most basic level, it's concerning."
Limitation of oil revenues. Easier said than done
I couldn't help but think of former Governor Jerry Brown when Governor Gavin Newsom spoke live with Elon Muskon Wednesday's Tesla Motors video feed . Newsom was in Palo Alto for a tour of the company's new engineering facilities that were closed to the media on a day when lawmakers in Sacramento debated a proposal to impose sanctions on oil company profits.
So why did I think of Brown?
Brown hasn't communicated publicly with the Legislature very often, but when he did, there was a commitment to work with lawmakers to address issues of concern. On rare occasions, Brown has supported a controversial idea with his political influence, appearing at Capitol Hill hearings and testifying before the Legislature. He did so in 2011 when he pushed to reform the state pension system , and twice in 2017 when he supported a gasoline tax to finance road repairs and expanded cap-and-trade programs to curb greenhouse gas emissions.
Newsom has not attended a legislative hearing since taking office in 2019.
At Wednesday's hearing , the first of a special session announced by Newsom in October , it became clear that the governor and lawmakers were no closer to resolving how to stop rising gas prices, Times reporter Taryn Luna reported. . Lawmakers share concerns about the potential unintended consequences of his attempt to cap operating profits, while some oil market insiders say Newsom's idea to cap refinery profits won't solve the problem. Other economists joined the Newsom administration in demanding more transparency from refiners about pricing, storage, supply contracts and inventory.
According to Luna, the hearing highlighted Newsom's problem because he began speaking publicly about the oil industry fines before he had a detailed plan. Solving the problem is more difficult than it seems.
Take a picture with Elon Musk.
Race to replace Feinstein
There are two developments in the Senate race this week. She will succeed Dianne Feinstein , who has said she will retire at the end of her term next year after a historic 32 – year career representing California in the US Senate .
Progressive Democratic Rep. Barbara Lee of Oakland officially announced her candidacy , telling Times reporter Seema Mehta that she is "an advocate and advocate for people who don't have a voice, who really need a voice." However, the announcement was not surprising. Last month, Lee told his colleagues in Congress that he intended to run, but that his participation could make the race livelier. Lee's experience as a longtime social justice activist adds another perspective to the field involving representatives of the Democratic Party . Kathy Porter , an economic populist, and AdamB.Schiff , a former prosecutor known for presiding over the first impeachment trial of President Trump. Though Porter and Schiff have a more successful fundraising record than Lee , they will be supported by a new supercomputing committee led by consultants tied to wealthy Bay Area donors who have poured millions into racial justice and criminal justice initiatives. in California. Keep track of who's running and who's not in the California Senate race with this handy list of long shots and wild cards .
The new poll shows the race as a close contest between Schiff and Porter , who have built a national profile and are active fundraisers but draw cross-generational Democratic voters. About 4 in 10 registered Democrats and independent voters said they were undecided on the nominee, so the dynamics could change between now and the March 2024 primary, compared with two other applicants, according to a survey by the Institute for Research. UC Berkeley Government Reports sponsored by the Los Angeles Times. Learn more about the search in this article by Times reporter Benjamin Oreskes .

Democratic governors form coalitions for abortion rights
Democratic governors of 20 states have launched a network designed to expand abortion access following a US Supreme Court ruling that struck down a woman's constitutional right to terminate a pregnancy and instead gave regulatory power to state governments. The organizers, led by California Governor Gavin Newsom, describe the Reproductive Freedom Alliance as a way for governors to share best practices, promote abortion rights in their states, and provide services to Americans in states with stronger laws. strict.
Controversy is brewing over the UCLA governor's ultra-competitive student transfer guarantee program.
Governor Gavin Newsom , along with lawmakers and many supporters, is pushing the University of California to ease the transfer process and increase access for more students from across states, particularly UCLA, UC Berkeley and UC San Diego. But a new analysis of Newsom's plan calls it "particularly myopic" and says it "violates a fundamental principle of justice."
These rural schools are facing a financial crisis. Will partisanship cut the lifeline?
Residents of rural Northern California, where a conservative ethos clashes with the state's famously liberal ethos, often feel left behind in the corridors of power in Sacramento and Washington. Their cities are shrinking. Their forests are burning. And for their schools, a financial cliff could come.

President Biden returns to Washington today after meeting in Poland with leaders of the Bucharest Nine, NATO's eastern wing, which has been skeptical of Russian aggression since its invasion of Ukraine nearly a year ago. Biden's trip, which included a surprise visit to Kiev and a fiery speech in Warsaw about US determination to help Ukraine, underscored his leadership on the world stage as he prepares to concede his 2024 re-election bid.
On Wednesday, one of the Republican candidates seeking to replace former President Donald Trump Biden will visit East Palestine, Ohio. He is said to have accused Biden of neglecting his duties at home after the train derailment more than two weeks ago. However, Trump's visit raises questions about his White House rail security.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg will visit the site of the Norfolk Southern train derailment in eastern Palestine on Thursday. According to The Post's Ian Duncan, this is the second state official to visit rural Ohio since the incident two weeks ago.
Jahn said Buttigieg will meet with community members, get an update on the National Transportation Safety Board's investigation and speak with investigators from his office who helped determine the cause of the crash.
Buttigieg has increasingly come under fire as the federal government has come under fire for its response to the crash, with some residents and local officials saying he personally did little to help. The Transportation Department has stepped up its response to the accident in recent days, with Buttigieg writing a letter to the CEO of Norfolk Southern on Sunday and announcing a series of safety recommendations on Tuesday.

12:06 p.m. Analysis: What if states bar newcomers from voting?
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) discussed the idea of a "national divorce" with host Sean Hannity on her Fox News show Tuesday night. The two nodded at each other as they discussed the various outlandish attempts to punish or discredit the political left.
Philip Bump of The Post notes that Hannity supported one of Green's proposals earlier in the conversation. According to Philip.
"The congressman has another idea: ban people who move from blue states to red states from voting for five years so they don't bring their bad policies with them," Hannity said. "Actually, I am a supporter of this idea."
Given the combination of left-wing rigidity and superficial intelligence, it's no wonder Hannity thinks this is a good idea. But this is not immediately and clearly possible, and the rest of Green's "proposal" is difficult to reconcile.
Let's start the evaluation with a direct question: how many people go from blue to red or vice versa? The Census Bureau collects data on such movements and gives us an idea of the rate of migration over five years. …
An immediately noticeable pattern is that red states tend to migrate more than red states, and most blue states tend to migrate more than blue states.

11:46 on our radar. Harris to announce reduction in mortgage insurance costs for homebuyers.
Vice President Harris plans to announce a measure to reduce costs for home buyers insured by the Biden administration's Federal Housing Administration.
Harris, who hosted an event in Bowie, MD, on Wednesday, announced that the FHA is reducing annual mortgage insurance premiums for most new borrowers by 0.3 percentage points, which will save homebuyers an average of $800 a year. The White House reported on this.
The mortgage insurance premium is the monthly fee that homeowners with FHA-insured mortgages pay to insure their mortgage and make monthly principal and interest payments.
The statement was also made by Housing and Urban Development Secretary Marcia L. It is designed to prevent rising loan prices that deter many homebuyers.
According to the White House, FHA-insured mortgages, which accounted for 7.5% of home sales in the third quarter of 2022, target homebuyers who otherwise could not afford them.
More than 80 percent of FHA borrowers are first-time homebuyers and more than 25 percent are minorities, according to a White House data report.
11:20. A majority of Republicans seeking a non-Trump candidate are named, according to the poll.
A majority of Republicans and independents who lean toward them believe the party would have a better chance of winning the 2024 presidential election with a candidate other than Donald Trump, according to a new poll.
According to the NPR-PBS NewsHour-Marist poll, 54 percent believe an alternative has a better chance and 42 percent believe the former president is the best choice for the party.
That momentum opens up opportunities for other GOP candidates, most notably Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), who has emerged as a leading alternative to Trump despite the fact that the White House has yet to announce a candidacy.
A new poll gives interesting insight into where support for the two men is strongest.
College graduates, families making more than $50,000, urban and suburban residents, and independent Republicans view DeSantis more favorably than Trump.
Meanwhile, white evangelical Christians, those without a college degree, voters from small towns and rural areas, and people living in households making less than $50,000 rate Trump more favorably than DeSantis.
11:07 It's now. Arizona Attorney General withheld tapes denying allegations of voter fraud.
About a year after the 2020 election, then-Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich launched an investigation into the state's largest election district, which quickly consumed more than 10,000 staff hours.
Investigators released a report in March 2022 that found all allegations of wrongdoing and abuse to be unfounded, based on internal documents reviewed by The Washington Post. According to The Post's Yvonne Winget Sanchez and Isaac Stanley-Becker, Brnovich, a Republican, remained silent. According to our partners.
The attorney general, who is running in the GOP primary for the U.S. Senate in April, released an "interim report" that his office claims reveals "serious weaknesses." He released the corrections made by his own investigators to refute his claims.
Then, in September, his office issued an "election overview summary" that systematically refuted widespread claims of fraud and revealed that none of the complainants, from state legislators to self-proclaimed "election integrity" groups, had provided any evidence to defend them. support them. . their statements. . Brnovich resigned last month without revealing his CV.
That timeline comes from documents released to The Post this week by Brnovich's successor, Democrat Chris Mays. He considered the taxpayer-funded investigation closed and told Maricopa County Council leaders earlier this month they were no longer under state fire.

10:57 The last one. Biden wants to support NATO in ending his trip abroad.
President Biden was eager to support NATO's eastern flank on Wednesday, pledging his full support if Russia starts cracking down on them after Russia wraps up a major three-day trip to Ukraine and Poland.
The Post's Matt Witter writes from Warsaw that a few hours before leaving for Washington, Biden reiterated that if Russia attacks any of these Eastern European countries, the United States will invoke Article 5 of the NATO Charter, meaning all . An alliance member will react as if their territory has been attacked; For a friend:
"It is absolutely clear that Article 5 is a sacred obligation of the United States," the president said before attending a closed-door meeting with the nine leaders in Bucharest. "We will defend every inch of NATO. Every inch of NATO."
At a time when the war in Ukraine has completed a year, the purpose of the meeting was to calm sensitive countries close to Ukraine and Russia and to give a serious warning to Russian President Vladimir Putin about the consequences of the tension.
"Not only Ukraine is in danger, literally. That's freedom," Biden said. "The idea that 100,000-plus troops are going to occupy another country after a war. That hasn't happened since World War II. Things have changed dramatically. We have to make sure we change them again."

Posted at 10:21 am. Frustrated by delays in arms shipments, Taiwan secretly visits a key lawmaker
The head of China's new House of Representatives said during a secret visit to China that the war in Ukraine has convinced Taiwan's leaders of the need to acquire more weapons and stockpile. Taipei.
The Post's Ellen Nakashima has the details.
"Almost every Taiwanese official I met called Russia's attack on Ukraine a wake-up call," Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-Wisconsin) said in an interview after returning from the self-governing democracy. China claims Taipei as its own and has vowed to one day unite with the People's Republic by force if necessary.
Facing a $19 billion arms stockpile, Taiwan is waiting for critical weapons such as Harpoon anti-ship missiles and F-16 fighter jets, many of which do not expire for years. On the Harpoons issue, a congressional aide said the missiles are unlikely to arrive in real numbers until 2027.
"The most important thing we heard from all of Taiwan's major leaders was concern about delays," said Gallagher, who met with Taiwan's President Tsai Ing-wen, her vice president, the defense minister, the intelligence chief and other senior officials. officers. Security. A day trip "It worries Taiwanese people and I think it's unacceptable."
Gallagher, who had never been to Taiwan before, said he was surprised the government recognized the threat posed by Communist Party-led China and its rapidly expanding military.

10:05 on our radar. Trump's visit to Ohio reinforces the policy of derailment
Donald Trump plans to visit the small Palestine in eastern Ohio on Wednesday. Rising political tensions after the fiery train derailment have led some residents to worry about polluted air and water.
The Post's Hannah Knowles, Meryl Kornfield and Ian Duncan report that ahead of the planned visit, the former president is echoing the chorus of Republicans urging President Biden not to attend, suggesting that city residents have been "abandoned." The mayor of the city called Biden's last visit to Ukraine a "blow". According to our partners.
Trump has also come under fire for his administration's efforts to roll back rail safety regulations and cut the Environmental Protection Agency, which Democrats urged to warn the 45th president after the accident.
The presidential candidate's heated rhetoric and rushed visit reflect the smoky collapse in eastern Palestine earlier this month that fueled partisan infighting that spanned the country's political divide.
Republicans pointed to the fallout from the derailment to make a broader point that Democrats are ignoring the concerns of many Americans, particularly in rural communities like East Palestine. The city is a microcosm of the white, working-class electorate whose electorate is central to Trump's political rise and popularity on the right of the America First agenda. The foreign conflict took precedence over the situation in Ohio.
Gonzalez v. Supreme Court hearing. A major lawsuit over whether Google is responsible for hosting terrorist content on tech platforms got off to a rough start for the plaintiffs on Tuesday, with judges appearing baffled by their arguments. .
In an article for The Technology 202, The Post's Cristiano Lima says the session won't make Silicon Valley executives sleep any easier, as many justices have suggested the need to consider industry liability protections under Section 230 of the Courtesy Notices Act — even if they do . I don't know how. For Cristiano:
At various times, several judges expressed their inability to understand the plaintiffs' arguments, particularly how they fit within the legal interpretation of Article 230.
"Boys, it's just a matter of course," Judge Samuel A. Alito Jr. said during a conversation with Eric Schnapper, an attorney representing the Gonzal family, about the use of a YouTube video representing Gonzal. "miniatures".
"Я в полмен замагазоване," Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson Shnapper said later, adding that the debate "confuses" the issues of whether platforms are protected from Section 230 liability requirements, and that the liability issue is essentially one.

9.21am: Latest: Biden reaffirms commitment to NATO allies
On Wednesday, President Biden sought to reassure countries on NATO's eastern flank that the United States remains committed to the alliance as Russia continues its attacks on civilian targets in Ukraine and its push for territory in the country's east.
" It is the strongest flank of NATO," Biden told the leaders of the Bucharest Nine meeting in Poland. "And you know better than anyone what is the danger in this conflict, not only for Ukraine, but also for the freedom of democracy in Europe and around the world."
Biden emphasized the commitment of the United States to Article 5 of the NATO constitution, according to which all members "agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against all." (Ukraine is not a member of NATO.)
"Ukraine is not on the map," Biden said. "This freedom".
Before the meeting, Biden was asked how he would react to Moscow's "suspension" of participation in the new Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), the final arms control agreement between the US and Russia.
NPR-PBS NewsHour – President Biden has the highest job approval rating for most of the year, according to a Marist poll.
According to the results of the survey, 46 percent of Americans are satisfied with Biden's job. У него жить лучше – 49 percent – among registered voters.
While the results weren't great, they were a lot better than last summer. Biden fell to 36 percent in July last year as independents resent him and many Democrats are disenchanted with his presidency. NPR notes that Biden is a Democratic Democrat, but despite all that.
Other polls tracked by The Post showed no similar movement.
The NRP poll also shows that Democrats see Biden as the 2024 standard-bearer.
In the new poll, 50 percent said the party would have a better chance with Biden, and 45 percent said the party would have a better chance with another candidate.
In November, Democrats and 54 percent of Democratic supporters said they would have a better chance with someone else.

7:45 minutes: analysis: many pieces of legislation, if they are adversely affected, no problem.
US President Donald Trump made a decision in the US State of Palestine, Ohio. .
In The Early 202, Anne Caldwell and Theodoric Meyer used The Post, for Trump, Ohio rules all the territory, with the convenience of the United States. There is no result from the competition, but from the presentation of the contract in the competition. By slaves of the group:
While Senator J. D. Vance (Republican from the state of Ohio) supported Trump last month, only three of the 10 Republicans in the House of Representatives of the state of Ohio did hold out: Mike Carey, Jim Jordan and Max L. Miller. None of them will come to his event today, according to their representatives, who referred to trips and conflicts in the schedule. Member of the House of Representatives Bill Johnson (Republican from the state of Ohio), whose district includes East Palestine, will be there, but he did not support Trump.
The relative lack of support for Trump is surprising, because Trump, who once called himself the "King of Support", supported all but one Republican in the Ohio delegation last year. And the state is not an anomaly.
Trump supported 164 Republican senators and representatives who are now in Congress during the midterm elections last year, regardless of whether these legislators asked for his support or not.
According to the list compiled last week by our colleague Aaron Blake, only about 30 of them have reciprocated since Trump announced his campaign more than three months ago.

7:30: Noted: Biden inspects East Palestine, Ohio, from Warsaw.
Президент Байден несколько раз звонил из Варшавы поздно вечером во вторник, чтобы следить за тем, что происходит в Восточной Палестине, штат Огайо, после крушения поезда более двух недель назад, в результате которого были выпущены токсичные химические вещества.
Звонки последовали за заявлением Агентства по охране окружающей среды о том, что оно возьмет на себя управление реагированием на стихийное бедствие и потребует от железнодорожной компании Norfolk Southern очистить от загрязнения территорию, окружающую Восточную Палестину, которая находится недалеко от границы с Пенсильванией.
Администратор EPA Майкл Риган сказал, что Norfolk Southern будет обязана восстановить территорию в соответствии с планом, одобренным федеральным агентством, а не проводить добровольную очистку, которую ранее обещал ее главный исполнительный директор.
Жители опасаются, что их деревня в Огайо может стать «токсичным городом» после схода с рельсов
Согласно списку, предоставленному Белым домом, Риган была среди тех, кому позвонил Байден во вторник вечером. Среди других были сенатор Шеррод Браун (штат Огайо), губернатор штата Огайо Майк Девайн (справа), губернатор Пенсильвании Джош Шапиро (справа) и член палаты представителей Билл Джонсон (справа от штата Огайо).
В своих звонках Байден «подтвердил свою неизменную приверженность и приверженность своей администрации обеспечению того, чтобы общины, пострадавшие от крушения Norfolk Southern, пользовались полной поддержкой федерального правительства», — говорится в сообщении Белого дома.
Бывший президент Дональд Трамп должен посетить Восточную Палестину в среду и, как ожидается, заявит, что реакция администрации Байдена была неадекватной.
7:10: На нашем радаре: Байден встретится с Бухарестской Девятью перед возвращением в Вашингтон.
Президент Байден должен встретиться с лидерами Бухарестской девятки, стран на восточном фланге НАТО, в Польше в среду перед возвращением в Соединенные Штаты.
В эту группу входят Болгария, Чехия, Эстония, Венгрия, Латвия, Литва, Польша, Румыния и Словакия — все они имеют причины для повышенной обеспокоенности по поводу войны России с Украиной.
Генеральный секретарь НАТО Йенс Столтенберг также должен принять участие во встрече в последний день поездки Байдена в Варшаву, которая состоялась после его неожиданного визита в Киев.
По сообщению Белого дома, во время встречи в среду Байден «подтвердит непоколебимую поддержку Соединенными Штатами безопасности Североатлантического союза».
Во вторник Байден выступил в Варшаве в преддверии 24 февраля годовщины российского вторжения. Он обвинил Россию в преступлениях против человечества.
6:50: На нашем радаре: Трамп направляется в Восточную Палестину на фоне вопросов о его безопасности на железной дороге.
Бывший президент Дональд Трамп в среду направляется в Восточную Палестину, штат Огайо, где он, как ожидается, раскритикует реакцию администрации Байдена на крушение поезда Norfolk Southern более двух недель назад, в результате которого были выпущены токсичные химические вещества.
Трамп, объявивший в ноябре о своем намерении вернуться в Белый дом, надеется использовать поездку, чтобы возродить тему предвыборной кампании 2016 года, посвященную решению проблем «забытых» американцев.
Но поездка также возрождает вопросы о послужном списке Трампа в области безопасности на железнодорожном транспорте. Как сообщает Politico, администрация Трампа отозвала предложение администрации Обамы потребовать более быстрых тормозов в поездах, перевозящих легковоспламеняющиеся материалы. В отчете также отмечается, что он прекратил регулярные проверки безопасности железных дорог и отложил ожидающее решения правило, требующее, чтобы в грузовых поездах было как минимум два члена экипажа.
Местные СМИ сообщают, что школы в Восточной Палестине будут закрыты в среду из-за визита Трампа. По словам официальных лиц, решение было принято из-за усиленных мер безопасности и перекрытия улиц, что затруднит транспортировку в школы.
Перед крушением в Огайо компания Norfolk Southern выступала против правил безопасности.
6:29: Отмечено: Вивек Рамасвами, технический предприниматель, объявляет о президентской гонке в 2024 году.
Молодой, богатый и малоизвестный технический предприниматель, который называет «пробуждение» национальной угрозой, объявил во вторник вечером, что он претендует на выдвижение в президенты от республиканцев.
37-летний Вивек Рамасвами объявил о своей кандидатуре в пятиминутном видео, размещенном в Интернете, сообщает Ази Пайбара из The Post. По словам нашего коллеги:
В видео Рамасвами преуменьшил важность налоговой политики и науки о коронавирусе в пользу освобождения того, что, по его словам, является голосами, которые несправедливо замалчиваются.
“Maybe you disagree with each other about whether corporate tax rates should be high or low,” Ramaswamy says in the video. “Whether ivermectin treats covid, and that's fine. But those are details. We still agree on the most basic rules of the road. …”
A spokesperson for Ramaswamy did not respond when asked for the candidate's views on corporate taxes or ivermectin, which the US Food and Drug Administration warns against using to treat or prevent the coronavirus.
“If you ask me, the best measure of the health of American democracy is actually the percentage of people who feel free to say what they actually think in public,” Ramaswamy said in the campaign-launch video. “And right now we're doing abysmally.”

6:27 AM: The latest: Field narrows in Wisconsin Supreme Court election that could decide fate of abortion ban
В гонке, которая определит, будут ли либералы или консерваторы контролировать Верховный суд Висконсина, когда он рассмотрит будущее запрета штата на аборты, избиратели сузили поле до двух кандидатов на предварительных выборах во вторник.
The Post's Patrick Marley writes that the winners began a 42-day sprint to an April 4 general election that is sure to see record spending. Per our colleague:
If liberals take over the court for the first time in 14 years, they are expected to reverse some GOP policies and could revisit election maps that have given Republicans huge margins in the state legislature.
Officially, the race is nonpartisan, but one candidate is closely aligned with Republicans and the other with Democrats. The state parties and dark-money groups are the biggest spenders in the race.
Milwaukee County Judge Janet Protasiewicz shored up Democratic support early in the race and easily rolled through Tuesday's primary. She has said she backs abortion rights and condemned the election maps as “rigged.”
Conservatives were more bitterly divided, leading to a contentious fight for the other spot on the general election ballot. Emerging from the primary was Daniel Kelly, who was appointed to the state Supreme Court in 2016 by Gov. Scott Walker (R).

6:25 AM: Noted: McClellan projected to become first Black woman to represent Va. in Congress
State Sen. Jennifer L. McClellan defeated conservative pastor Leon Benjamin to become the first Black woman to represent Virginia in Congress, the Associated Press projected Tuesday.
The Post's Meagan Flynn and Gregory S. Schneider write that McClellan (D-Richmond) bested Benjamin in his third bid for the 4th District seat, which was vacated after the death in November of Rep. A. Donald McEachin (D). McClellan described McEachin as a longtime friend and mentor. Per our colleagues:
McClellan, 50, was widely expected to prevail in the deep-blue, Richmond-anchored district, which stretches to the North Carolina border. But within the broader arc of history, in a city still contending with its Confederate past — in a country still reckoning with the consequences of slavery, segregation and “massive resistance” — McClellan said she felt the weight of the victory.
She was thinking, she said in an interview, of her parents, who grew up in the segregated South; her father and grandfather, who paid poll taxes; and the women in her family who for generations faced barriers to participating in American democracy.
“It's poetic justice, thinking about what not only my family has been through, but what our country has been through,” McClellan said.

6:24 AM: Noted: Seattle becomes first US city to ban caste discrimination
The Seattle City Council voted Tuesday to ban caste-based discrimination, the first such move by a US city.
The move adds caste as a protected category to the city's anti-discrimination laws, which already include prohibitions against discriminating on the basis of disability, religion and sexual orientation, The Post's Niha Masih reports. Per our colleague:
The movement has won a “historic, first-in-the-nation ban on caste discrimination,” tweeted Kshama Sawant, the socialist council member who introduced the legislation. “Now we need to build a movement to spread this victory around the country.”
The caste system is a hierarchal structure that determines a person's social standing at birth. It has roots in Hinduism but later proliferated to members of other faiths in South Asia. Dalits, formerly called untouchables, are relegated to the bottom rung in the South Asian order, though India legally abolished the concept of “untouchability” decades ago.
But caste-based discrimination remains entrenched in society, and similar practices have followed the South Asian diaspora community to the United States and elsewhere, activists say. More recently, there have been efforts to bring attention to caste-based prejudice in Silicon Valley and Seattle workplaces, where there are many tech professionals of South Asian origin.

Biden's 2023 State of the Union address – 2/7 (FULL LIVE STREAM)
Rishi Sunak warned in the Prime Minister's Questions that "hardline" Conservative MPs could block efforts to secure a post-Brexit trade deal in Northern Ireland.
Labor leader Keir Starmer has warned that rebel MPs will not accept the deal unless there is a role for the European Court of Justice in Northern Ireland.
"So the prime minister is going to be honest with them and say it's not going to happen?" asked Mr. Starmer.
Sunak responded that Starmer was talking about a deal that he "hasn't even seen, that we're still discussing, that hasn't been completed yet."
Sunak hopes to secure a deal that will convince the United Democratic Party (DUP) to re-share power in Stormont and avoid a cabinet and MP revolt.
Speaking on Sky News, Veterans Affairs Minister Jonny Mercer said Sunak "voted for Brexit and campaigned strongly so he won't sell anyone out or offer an unfair solution."
It comes after ministers agreed to continue "intensive talks" with nurses over pay and conditions after unions agreed to end a 48-hour strike next week.

“Do you agree with me that it is unacceptable to apply EU law in Northern Ireland without democratic control or approval?
He asked the Prime Minister to commit to rewriting legally binding agreements into every deal negotiated.
"I've heard loud and clear that he wants and needs this issue to be a foundation for working with others to restore the separation of powers, and I know that to be true," he said. Altar.

Starmer accused Sunak of being cowardly against eurosceptic conservatives
12:27Josh Salisbury
Labor Keir Starmer accused Rishi Sunak of not having the courage to challenge "disgruntled and reckless violence" in Conservative ranks.
"I'm here to tell you not to worry about it because we are going to put country before party and make sure the Labor vote is successful," he said.
“You should accept our offer, ignoring the angry cries of those around you, who never take no for an answer. Why don't you just do it?
Sunak said he was listening to people in Northern Ireland and accused Sunak. Starmer always has the right to change his mind.
Sunak said Starmer "will not defend Britain" over Brexit
12:19Josh Salisbury

“On this issue, he said he would respect the results of the referendum and then promised to support the second one.
“The whole time he kept voting to destroy Brexit. I know what the British know: he cannot be trusted to defend England on this matter."
To applause from the Conservatives, Starmer replied: "Mr. President, the sound you hear is the Prime Minister clapping her hands while raising the noodles to her ears."
Starmer warned that "hard-line" Tories would not accept the deal
12:15 , Josh Salisbury
Labor Keir Starmer has warned Rishi Sunak that "hardliners" in the Conservative Party will not accept a deal if there is no European Court of Justice seat in Northern Ireland.

Sunak responded: “For [Mr. Starmer] to talk about an unfinished deal that he hasn't seen, that we're still negotiating… that's his usual position when it comes to the EU. He gave the EU full rights and agreed to everything they proposed.
"This is not a strategy, this is surrender."
Sunak declined to say whether Northern Ireland would continue to comply with any EU legislation under the deal.
12:11 , Josh Salisbury
Keir Starmer has accused former Prime Minister Boris Johnson of talking "bullshit" about Northern Ireland's protocol, saying he has failed to deliver on promises of "forms, checks, barriers".
He asked Sunak to confirm whether the deal would continue to allow Northern Ireland to comply with some EU laws.
Mr. Sunak responded: “[Mr. Starmer] ran forward. We are still in intensive negotiations with the European Union… I fully understand what is needed and I will keep fighting until we get it."
Sunak: Northern Ireland deal must meet 'Conservatives, Brexit and Unionists' demands
12:08Josh Salisbury
Labor leader Sir Keir Starmer began his questions to the President. In response to questions about Northern Ireland's post-Brexit trade deals, Sunak asked if the Prime Minister accepted they were "poorly implemented".
Sunak replied: “We are still in active negotiations with the EU, but he needs to know that I am Conservative, pro-Brexit and pro-union and that any deal we reach must meet all three conditions.
"We need to secure Northern Ireland's sovereignty, protect Northern Ireland's place in our union and find practical solutions to the challenges facing people and businesses."
Sunak: We will continue our fight against violence against women and girls.
12:04Josh Salisbury
Risha Sunaku's first question came from Labor MP Andrew West, who asked if the government was committed to a police response to any response to domestic violence.

He added on Times Radio: “We have to operate in the real world. Rishi Sunak campaigned, voted and committed to Brexit.
“It feels like we're stuck in time, doesn't it? Because we're talking about the same things we've been talking about for five years. Let's give the Prime Minister a chance to speak, shall we? He attacks him. He did the best he could."

Mercer rejected the defense secretary's claim that the military was underfunded.
10:21Josh Salisbury
Veterans Affairs Secretary Johnny Mercer has stepped up his involvement in a standoff with Defense Secretary Ben Wallace over funding for the military, saying it is "absurd" to say they are being "retired."
When asked about Defense Secretary Ben Wallace's recent comments on defense funding, Mercer said he "doesn't buy the defense cut story," noting that defense spending has been huge. in recent years.
He suggested that cabinet ministers "stand up for" the Ministry of Defense (MoD) ahead of the March 15 budget, as recent statements suggest the UK military is under-resourced.

It comes amid Britain's efforts to support Ukraine in response to an invasion by Russian troops and rising global tensions with China.
Blair and The Hague called for a digital ID card
09:30 , Josh Salisbury
Every citizen is to be issued a "digital identity card" as part of Sir Tony Blair and Lord Hague's "fundamental reshaping of the country around technology".
Blair's former prime minister and former conservative Labor Party leader in The Hague said the challenge of adapting to the new technological revolution meant putting aside party differences.
The plan is to include them on a new ID card that includes information such as a passport, driver's license, tax records, qualifications and employment eligibility that can be stored on a mobile phone.
In a joint article for The Times, they said: "Politics must change radically because the world is changing radically."
“We are living through the technological revolution of the 21st century, whose consequences are as great as the industrial revolution of the 19th century”.
They warned that policymakers risked "fighting on the sidelines of 20th century tax and spending politics" rather than grappling with the fundamental changes needed in the new era.
The former Labor and Conservative leader said: "We both believe the task is so urgent, the dangers of being left behind so great and the opportunities so compelling, that a new understanding of national purpose across the political divide is needed."
The public sector pays for "difficult problems" with "difficult solutions".
08:27 , Josh Salisbury
The public sector wage debate is an "intractable problem" and "there are no free solutions," said a government minister.
Asked in the Radio Times whether the department's announcement of a 3.5% pay increase for police officers, teachers, nurses and other staff in 2023/24 could settle ongoing strikes, Cabinet Secretary Johnny Mercer said : "I think it is a difficult issue to resolve." .
"If you look at what's going on in the community that I represent in Plymouth, inflation is definitely the biggest problem. It drives prices up in all directions.
“As the Governor of the Bank of England has shown, if you reduce inflation by raising public sector wages, you enter an endless cycle where prices continue to rise.
"I will always advocate that people who work in my constituency get paid more when they work in the public sector.
But you have to do it in a balanced way. This is not a binary argument, there is no free solution."
Mercer said that "the easy option is to give in to everyone's demands, but then inflation will keep going up, prices will keep going up, and life will be hard."
Good morning and welcome to live coverage of today's political events.
Rishi Sunak is negotiating to resolve Northern Ireland's post-Brexit trade challenges.
Speaking on Sky News, Veterans Affairs Minister Jonny Mercer said the deal "won't sell anybody".
He said Sunak "had a good discussion with the European Union last week" and "interacted well with other parliamentarians."
He added: "Let's give the Prime Minister a chance to speak."
“He attacked him, he threw everything he could. You voted for Brexit and you are actively campaigning for it, right?
“So he is not going to sell out to anyone or offer a solution that is unfair or inconsistent with what he thinks about Brexit.
"I thought, let's give him a chance, let's give him a chance to figure it out, and then let's support him and work on all the other issues that we're facing as a country right now."
Asked this week if there was a deal, Mercer said: "I don't know, I hope so."
Among Arizona Republicans, Curry Lake needs little introduction. So at the recent state party meeting, outgoing President Kelly Ward kept things simple.
"Our true ruler!" Explains
Dressed in a red dress, lavender gray pants, and black stilettos, Ms. Lake took the stage at the Phoenix megachurch to thunderous cheers and cheers. Before launching into a short tirade about former President Donald Trump, he hung up the phone, said, "I love Arizona," and lauded voter fraud at a rally the next day. There is still talk of electoral fraud.
"People are looking at what happened in Arizona," he said. Because they stole our election before our eyes, they saw it every day," he said.
Miss Lake, who was defeated for governor by Democrat Katie Hobbs in November, said she was fighting in court to overturn the results and fix "our failed election."
He told more than 1,000 people that his court case, which had already been lost and is still being appealed, is "very, very good." On February 16, the Arizona Court of Appeals ruled against Miss Lake, removing Governor Hobbs from office and refusing to call new elections. Ms. Lake has promised to take her case to the Arizona Supreme Court immediately.
Nearly three months after the loss, Ms. Lake is still in the first stage of grief: denial. There is also anger, the second stage opens in the parade, but today everything is negative. Failure to comply with Arizona election procedures, vote counting and official audits. Trump denied losing his slate in November. He dismissed Ms. Hobbs and other elected Democrats as "crooks who have taken over our state government."
Less often but clearly, many of his party leaders deny that they are interested in fielding candidates like him. In the year One of the clearest messages to come out of the 2022 election is that voters will reject politicians who have accused former President Donald Trump of election fraud. Senator Mitch McConnell went on to say that many moderate and independent voters believe the GOP is "descending into chaos and chaos." The Republican leader's solution in the Senate is to present a "quality candidate" next time.
But Ms. Lake, TV presenter and MAGA activist, considered one of the rising stars of 2022 politics, refuses to see the writing on the wall. He wants to tear down that wall. So nearly 100 days after the election, he's still out of the election. A meeting with Republican senators in Washington. The right pushes the media. Also an eyebrow-raising trip to Iowa, an early presidential voting state.
Once seen as a measure of strength, this chutzpah now has a certain morbidity. But Ms. Lake's refusal to accept defeat could have consequences far beyond her political career. At this critical moment of transition in the Republican Party — as Mr. Trump appears to be in decline but trying to regain power — Ms. Lake's charismatic resignation signal could shape not only the future of the MAGA movement, but 2024 as well. Map of the Senate and more. Presidential race
"Carrie never left campaign mode," said GOP adviser Tyler Montag, who opposed the nomination. "He's the most famous person in Arizona right now. So what he does matters."
Since November, Ms. Lake's relentless attacks on GOP campaign supervisors like "Judas Republicans" have raised millions of dollars from donors across the country, stoking illusions among her grassroots that she will one day unseat the Arizona governor. Because after Miss Lake has conducted all the questioning, what other explanation could there be for what happened other than a lie?
"I was knocking on doors. I know what I saw. It's indescribable," said GOP state committee member Patti Porter, who believes the vote was rigged.
In many ways, this is a repeat of the Trump 2020 campaign accomplishments. It is now the norm for candidates facing the election: consistently highlighting certain data points, warning that democracy is under attack, and accusing the media of turning a blind eye. The still-active Women's War chapter regularly tweets, for example, asking how Democrats won four states in Arizona when voters voted for Republican congressional candidates by double digits (answer: why did some of those GOP candidates run without opposition). Through a spokesperson, Ms. Lake declined the Monitor's request for an interview.
Some who try to pick on Ms. Lake wonder if she really believes everything she says. However, others say this is the real Curry Lake, a MAGA loyalist driven by a sincere belief that his entry into politics was stolen from Trump in 2020. "When I first met him [his belief in fraud campaign] was very clear,” says a former campaign aide. "I knew it would destroy him."
Trumpet's "First Lady".
Against the backdrop of a well-lit event space outside Des Moines, Myrna Garcia sees people rushing towards a stage decorated with US and Iowa flags, with Curry Lake at its center. Music blares from the brick walls as volunteers greet guests and hand out flyers.
Like nearly everyone in the room, Ms. Garcia is excited about Ms. Lake and her political future. "She has an interesting personality," says the housewife. "He's young, he's alive, he's aggressive."
Engineer Steve Allison said, "He's the best American citizen I know. I've seen him go to the White House."
That a failed gubernatorial candidate in a state 1,300 miles away filled a room full of Iowans in a non-election year is a testament to Ms. Lake's appeal. He is second only to Donald Trump among segments of the GOP grassroots that have seen him criticized in the conservative media. Many people here wonder what the Trump-Lake card options are.
In the 2022 cycle, no Republican has garnered as many fans in the mainstream press as Ms. Lake. She has consistently emerged as the "new face of Maga Right" and Trump's "leading lady".
As a candidate, he can connect with people immediately, says a former campaign contributor. "People were leaving. He had the ability to make everyone in the room think he was talking to them." Even members who believe in his strategic moves — clashing with Republicans, alienating traditional donors, manipulating his political agenda — marvel at his political acumen and the presence of the platform that enabled Democrats to win elections.
Another former employee said, "He was the most talented candidate I've ever seen. Not even close."
Ms. Hobbs, who was Arizona's secretary of state at the time, did not allow debate — Ms. Lake allegedly turned the stage "tough" — although some Democrats began to criticize her candidacy as weak.
All this falls, when it comes, it's more terrible.
Lake's downgrade – by 17,000 votes out of 2.5 million – shocked many. Republican data analyst Benny White said the general voting system did not. In Maricopa County, home to 6 of 10 Arizona voters, enough Republicans and independents rejected Ms. Lake and other far-right candidates, denying the legitimacy of the 2020 election to close out the Democratic race. "They were unintentionally deselected," he says.
Let's face it: Maricopa's 33,794 absentee voters chose the GOP candidate to elect Ms. Hobbs as governor. Meanwhile, 8,541 Democrats voted for Ms. Lake, according to Mr. White's analysis of the voting results. That deficit — some 25,000 transgressive votes, mostly in wealthy counties — was enough to rob him of his chances in the swing state of Arizona.
Maricopa had trouble printing ballots on Election Day, which hampered the process and led to long wait times. A report released by the county concluded that fewer than 1% of voters were affected by the incident and "there are no voters left." But many of Lake's fans were quickly mistaken.
After Ms. Hobbs predicted the winner, Ms. Lake was briefly and ineffectively silent, tweeting, "Americans know BS when they see it." He soon announced the formation of a legal team to dispute the findings.
The campaign attorney did not join the lawsuit. Instead, Ms. Lake was represented by a divorce attorney representing the now-defunct Cyber Ninjas organization in the much-publicized "audit" of the 2020 Arizona election.
On Dec. 24, an Arizona court denied Ms. Lake's request to overturn the election in a two-day, no-witness hearing into alleged abuses of Maricopa County election officials.
"Courts cannot accept presumptions or assumptions in the absence of clear and convincing evidence," Judge Peter Thompson wrote.
The court allowed the trial after rejecting eight requests for it. Ms. Lake appealed both the decision and the dismissal of her other claims.
Turn right
If vote rigging and a corrupt media are the main interests of Carrie Lake's animation, for some friends and former colleagues this comes as a shock to the woman and journalist they once knew.
Raised by Microsoft in Iowa as the youngest of nine children, Lake moved to Phoenix in 1994 to work as a television weather reporter. Five years later, he was hired as the anchor of the evening news at the Fox affiliate Channel 10.
Former colleagues say Ms. Lake, married and a father of two, can be tough but warm and caring. (Most current employees are prohibited by law from discussing it.) There's a policy you rarely hear about.
"She was a very ordinary person," said Marlene Galan-Woods of Phoenix, whose late husband, former Republican Attorney General Grant Woods, was negotiating with Ms. Lake.
Ms. Lago said she voted for Barack Obama in 2008. However, in 2010, In 2016, she began posting pro-Trump messages on social media and giving speeches in support of conservative causes, angering station executives who doubt the neutrality of the anchor. Then, in 2019, Lake was caught by Hot Mike for using profanity to post a weekly Phoenix option.
Channel 10 HR director Diana Pike left that day, said she had hired a lawyer to deal with the incident and had not returned for a month. Workers had to cancel holidays to pay. Mrs. Pike, who is retired, hasn't apologized for what happened after she returned.
"People were mad at him. He came back to the newsroom a triumphant hero and was ignored. That's how he treated people," he says.
After the 2020 election, tensions escalated, with Arizona's opponents of Trump accusing her of defrauding her losses and allegations about Ms. Lake. She left the site in March 2021. Ms Lake said she was fed up with the media. Miss Pike calls this difference common.
Three months later, Ms. Lake announced her candidacy for governor.
Take on well-funded opponents in the Republican primary. By then, he had built a national profile such as his denial of the 2020 election and crowd liking, which helped Trump's approval rating. She raised money at Mar-a-Lago and spoke regularly with the former president, who spoke to Miss Lake as vice president.
After winning the primary, Republican strategists saw a clear way to swing the vote and unseat Democratic candidate Ms. Hobbs. Everything seems to be going in favor of the woman.
"The problem wasn't money," said GOP Representative Thomas Van Flynn, who took time off to advise the campaign.
But Ms. Lake didn't go to the centre, or even to the centre-right. Conversely, right-wing cultural grievances and "electoral loyalty" ignore important environmental issues such as water and education. Former Trump fundraiser Carolyn Wren hired what she thought was a "VIP advisor" for her campaign at a rally Jan. 6, 2021. He appeared with former Trump strategist Steve Bannon and other MAGA groups, where he is mocked by Arizona "McCain Republicans" for not being conservative. He rolled out the red carpet for Mr. Trump to stand out during his visit.
It was all "Trump, Trump, Trump," recalled a former campaign adviser. Ms. Lake and her inner circle, according to this strategist, are starting to see Arizona as a hotbed for the presidential ticket even as the race for governor narrows. "He didn't want to be a governor. He wanted to be a Trump ally," the adviser said.
Those distractions, coupled with Ms. Lake's aggressive style, helped turn the winning contest into a draw, the consultant said. "It was our loss. We did. Well, she (Mrs. Lake) did."
Attack on election officials
At Suburban Golf Club, Curry Lake overlooks the ocean. Hundreds of zealous people enter the windowless room, and many more wait outside. Some posted signs that read "Save Arizona" and "Carizona." It's 95 degrees Fahrenheit indoors.
"I didn't realize everyone was coming tonight," she says cheerfully. "Okay. The people are with us. But the corrupt election officials are with them. That's how they win."
Today, Miss Lake is doing better than her relationship with Trump. "We have the president on the phone," he said, holding up his iPhone. "President Trump doesn't trust this nation. Everyone in Arizona cares about electoral integrity."
To cheers from the crowd, Mr. Trump repeated Ms. Lake's complaint by phone that the "machine" broke down in "Republican" areas on Election Day. He said it was a deliberate conspiracy to steal his vote. But the court ruled that the blunder didn't stop anyone from voting, nor did the blunders disproportionately affect Republican-leaning areas, though overall, Republicans were less likely to vote by mail.
Ms Lake said the only solution was a new election, and Ms Hobbs called the governor's office a "fraud". "Make yourself comfortable, honey," he says with a reassuring smile.
But his biggest target is the Maricopa County GOP officials who controlled the election.
Pictured are Maricopa County Clerk Stephen Richer and County Supervisor Bill Gates. "These clowns trample on the sacred right to vote," chanted the crowd, "lock them up!"
Both men received numerous death threats and Mr Gates and his family were forced to flee their home during the election. A Missouri man was indicted in federal court last August after making death threats to Mr. Richer. In July, the FBI arrested a Massachusetts man who allegedly made a bomb threat against Ms. Hobbs, and as Secretary of State Joe Biden confirmed his 2020 victory in Arizona.
During her campaign, Miss Lake became a fixture in the Arizona media. He called reporters names, criticized their reporting and told reporters in November that he would be the media's "worst nightmare" if elected.
Tonight he accused reporters of ignoring evidence of fraud in the room and told them to tell the truth. "The truth! The truth!" The fans sing.
"I'm tempted to pick them up and slap them," she says. "There's a reason to take down media, and it's not for my protection." The crowd erupted again.
Last October, 60 former media professionals in Arizona signed a joint statement calling on political candidates — without names — to stop intimidating the media, writing that "harassing reporters for political gain is unacceptable and unpatriotic."
Ms. Galan-Woods, a former news anchor, is one of them. He believes Ms. Lake's speech may incite violence. "He's not qualified," said Galen Woods, a Democrat who is considering running for Congress. I think he knows more.
And then
Few politicians in American history suffered an even worse loss in 2000 than Algor. Because the Supreme Court rejected the full recount, Florida lost the election — and the election — to George W. Bush by a margin of 537 votes. The confusing electoral scene of "chad in a panic" and "butterfly" involved nearly 2,000 Democratic retirees who mistakenly voted for conservative Pat Buchanan.
The crisis ended with Mr. Gore giving a rousing and widely lauded speech to rally the country. He then went through the next steps normally taken for a losing candidate. He grew a beard and went on a six-week European tour. He avoided direct criticism of his opponent and then of the White House. Over time, he turned his painful defeat into laughter. "I'm Al Gore, and I was the next president of the United States," he said.
The last stage of grief – after denial, anger, negotiation and despair – acceptance. Losing a candidate like Ms. Lake requires accepting defeat to properly assess what happened and campaign better next time around, say many strategists.
However, absentee candidates often realize that lightning never strikes twice. Former Democratic star Stacey Abrams cried foul last year after narrowly losing the 2018 Georgia gubernatorial race, but she didn't catch fire. In Texas, Beto O'Rourke lost his presidential and gubernatorial campaigns to Senator Ted Cruz, unable to regain the momentum he had lost.
In this light, Miss Lake's vehement denial may have some reason. Her constant crusade has also paid off, just as Trump turned bankruptcy into gold after 2020. Ms. Lake has raised $2.5 million since the election, less than 10% of which has been spent directly on her legal efforts. Most of the donations came from out of state.
That ATM creates more incentive for Ms. Lake to pursue her case, said Kathy Petsas, a GOP activist who describes herself as a McCain Republican. "She has celebrity anxiety syndrome. She needs constant attention," she said.
