Chicago Weather: Snow forecast for Saturday Winter Storm Watch issued for city, suburbs – WLS-TV
CHICAGO (WLS) — Parts of the Chicago area are bracing for several inches of wet, slushy snow as a late winter storm moves in on the last weekend in April.

WATCH: Latest ABC7 AccuWeather Forecast

A Winter Storm Watch has been issued for Boone, De Kalb, Ogle and Winnebago counties from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Saturday and for Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, and McHenry counties from 1 p.m. Saturday to 1 a.m. Sunday. A Winter Storm Warning has been issued for Lake and McHenry counties in Illinois from 1 p.m. to 11 p.m. Saturday, and Kenosha, Racine and Walworth counties in Wisconsin from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday.

ABC7 meteorologist Larry Mowry said precipitation will begin falling as rain between 9 and 11 a.m. Saturday morning. Through the afternoon hours, the rain will change over to snow, mainly for areas along and north of I-80 as temperatures dip into the 30s and 40s. Winds will gust up to 40 mph.

Within the Winter Storm Watch area, there will be a swath of heavy snow with accumulations ranging from 4 to 8 inches.

If O’Hare sees more than 2.2 inches of snow from this system, it will be the greatest snowfall on record this late in the season.

A historic mid-April storm dropped as many as eight inches of snow on parts of the Chicago area less than two weeks ago. Woodstock received 8.5 inches of snow and 5.4 inches of snow fell at O’Hare on April 14.

Fact-Checking Trump’s Speech to the N.R.A. – The New York Times
Fact-Checking Trump’s Speech to the N.R.A. – The New York Times

What Trump Said

“In the last administration, President Obama signed the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty. And in his waning days in office, he sent the treaty to the Senate to begin the ratification process. This treaty threatened your subjugate — you know exactly what’s going on here — your rights, your constitutional and international rules and restrictions and regulations. Under my administration, we will never surrender American sovereignty to anyone. We will never allow foreign bureaucrats to trample on your Second Amendment freedom.”

The 2014 Arms Trade Treaty regulates international sales of conventional weapons (like tanks, combat vehicles, warships, missiles and firearms). It does not “surrender American sovereignty” over gun laws to the United Nations or hand enforcement powers over guns to “foreign bureaucrats.”

The United States was a signatory to the treaty, but did not ratify it as 101 other nations have. Mr. Trump withdrew the United States’ signature during his speech.

The treaty aims to establish international norms for regulating arms sales between countries and addressing illegal arms sales. It prohibits selling weapons to nations that are under arms embargoes or will use them to commit genocide, terrorism, war crimes or attacks against civilians.

In the preamble, the treaty explicitly reaffirms “the sovereign right of any state to regulate and control conventional arms exclusively within its territory, pursuant to its own legal or constitutional system.” The Congressional Research Service noted that the treaty “does not affect sales or trade in weapons among private citizens within a country” and, even if ratified, “would likely require no significant changes to policy, regulations or law” since “the United States already has strong export laws in place.”

“It has absolutely no effect on U.S. domestic gun laws,” said Daryl G. Kimball, the executive director of the Arms Control Association, which supports the treaty.

Adam Winkler, a Second Amendment expert at the University of California, Los Angeles, agreed and noted that withdrawing the United States as a signatory would have very little impact given that the Senate never ratified the treaty. What Mr. Trump is relinquishing, Mr. Kimball said, is a seat at the international table to set global standards and better enforcement in countries most affected by the illegal arms trade.

What Trump Said

“We are supplying police with surplus military equipment supplies and gears that the previous administration refused to give up. This is surplus. This is extra. We don’t need it. Great equipment sitting in warehouses all over the country. Billions of dollars of equipment that the military no longer needs or wants or uses, but they are top of the line. Some of it’s never been used. Brand new. From vehicles to, essentially, supplies of all kind, including bulletproof vests.”

Mr. Trump is referring to the Pentagon’s so-called 1033 program, which has been sending excess military equipment to the police since the 1990s.

An Army veteran who faces eight counts of attempted murder after plowing his car into a crowd of people in Sunnyvale, critically injuring a 13-year-old girl, targeted the victims because he thought some of them were Muslim, police officials said Friday.

Isaiah Joel Peoples, 34, was ordered held without bail Friday at his first appearance in court since being arrested and charged with steering his black 2010 Toyota Corolla into eight pedestrians Tuesday evening. The defendant said nothing during the brief appearance in Judge Richard Loftus’ courtroom at the Santa Clara County Hall of Justice in San Jose.


“Based on our investigation, new evidence shows that the defendant intentionally targeted the victims based on their race and his belief that they were of the Muslim faith,” Sunnyvale Police Chief Phan Ngo said outside court. The chief didn’t explain what evidence led police to believe this and did not say whether any of the victims are Muslim.


The Santa Clara County district attorney’s office charged Peoples with eight counts of attempted murder, four of which have enhancement for causing great bodily injury. Prosecutors have not filed hate crime enhancements in the case, but are prepared to do so “if the investigation yields enough evidence,” Chief Assistant District Attorney Jay Borarsky said.

“There is very appalling, disturbing evidence that at least one or two of these victims were targeted based on the defendant’s view of what their race or religion may have been,” Borarsky said, adding that “we have zero tolerance for any sort of hate crime.”

Sunnyvale police Capt. Jim Choi said Peoples has made “no statements of remorse” since his arrest Tuesday evening.

Peoples’ attorney, Chuck Smith, challenged the accusations and said his client did not intentionally run down anyone and has been “praying for the victims injured from his actions.”

“This act was clearly the product of some mental disorder or mental defect,” Smith said after the hearing. “There is no explanation for this other than his service, the things he saw, and what happened to him mentally while serving our country.”

Peoples served in the U.S. Army from 2004 to 2006 and was honorably discharged before joining the Army Reserve in 2008. He was a civil affairs specialist who retained the rank of sergeant and was deployed to Iraq from June 2005 to May 2006, officials said.


His brother has told The Chronicle that Peoples was struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder after his return from the Middle East. He was on medication and spent nearly a year in a mental institution in 2015, his brother, Joshua Peoples, said.

Before he ran down the crowd, Peoples picked up food and was heading toward a Bible study group, police said. One witness told The Chronicle that he reached speeds up to 60 mph before striking the victims. Police later found a disassembled, inoperative shotgun in the Toyota, they said.

Peoples hit seven of the eight victims he targeted, police said. One of the victims pushed his 9-year-old son out of the car’s path. The father, however, was hit, along with his 13-year-old daughter, who authorities said is the most severely injured victim.

She remains in critical condition in a coma with swelling to her brain, police officials wrote in court papers. Doctors removed the left side of her skull to relieve pressure. She also has a broken pelvis.

“Our hearts are with her and her loved ones as we pray for her recovery,” Ngo said.

The six other victims have injuries ranging from broken bones to minor scrapes.

After crashing into the crowd at the intersection of El Camino Real and Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road, a witness said, Peoples got out of his car and repeatedly mumbled, “Thank you, Jesus,” before police came to the scene and arrested him.

The attack comes as many local Muslims have grown fearful and frustrated over recent anti-Muslim rhetoric and attacks around the country and world. Last month, a man suspected of having white nationalist ties gunned down 49 people at two mosques in New Zealand during Friday prayer.

In the United States, Muslims were the target of nearly 19% of religiously motivated hate crimes, according to FBI data released in 2018.

“My heart breaks for anyone who is an innocent victim of hate,” said Samina Sundas, founder of the American Muslim Voice Foundation, a Bay Area Muslim advocacy group. “People are just killing right and left. I don’t know when it will stop.”

Sundas said people shouldn’t focus on divisiveness when tragedies like the one in Sunnyvale happen.

“More of us need to dedicate ourselves to love, not hate,” she said.

Trump and Biden spar over vigor in one of the first direct faceoffs of the 2020 race – The Washington Post
Trump and Biden spar over vigor in one of the first direct faceoffs of the 2020 race – The Washington Post

Ashley Parker

April 26 at 6:42 PM

Two septuagenarian grandfathers sparred Friday over who possesses more relative youthful vigor, as President Trump and former vice president Joe Biden circled each other in one of the first overt faceoffs of the 2020 presidential contest.

The war of words — from playful taunts to direct repudiations — underscores how both men largely view the other as their main political foil, with Biden making Trump’s character the centerpiece of his campaign and Trump querying friends and advisers about the threat Biden poses.

Biden, a Democratic former senator from Delaware who served for eight years as President Barack Obama’s No. 2, officially launched his bid for the 2020 Democratic nomination Thursday with an explicit rejection of Trump and his values, focusing in particular on the president’s declaration that there were “very fine people on both sides” of deadly clashes between white supremacists and counterprotesters in Charlottesville in 2017.

Trump immediately responded by insulting Biden’s intelligence on Twitter and branding him “Sleepy Joe.” If Biden can prevail over the gantlet of nearly two dozen Democratic hopefuls, Trump wrote, “I will see you at the Starting Gate!”

But by Friday, the two were already out of the gate, engaged in an early round of bickering in which the 72-year-old president and the 76-year-old former vice president seemed determined to establish who was more energetic and virile. 

Leaving the White House on Friday morning, Trump enthused to reporters about how he is “the youngest person.”

“I am a young, vibrant man,” Trump said, apparently drawing a contrast with Biden.

When asked on ABC’s “The View” about Trump calling him “Sleepy Joe,” Biden smiled.

“That’s the first time I’ve ever been referenced that way,” he said. Usually, Biden added, it’s the other way around: “Hyper Joe.”

The contest of machismo between the two generational peers — another candidate seeking the Democratic nomination, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), is 77 — has prompted some amusement among political spectators. “I’m not sure ‘Grumpy Old Men 3’ is the debate America wants or needs right now,” said Michael Steel, a Republican strategist. 

But for Trump, his nicknames and digs at Biden belie a deeper worry: For now, at least, Trump and those in his orbit largely view Biden as his most potent rival, according to people familiar with Trump and his team’s thinking.

An adviser who recently spoke to Trump about the campaign said he was focused on Biden and Sanders, asking about their rollouts and popularity and which candidate would be a more formidable foe. Biden poses a particular threat, some campaign advisers say, in places such as Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania — states that Trump won in 2016 with strong support among working-class whites. 

A second adviser said part of Trump’s current interest in Biden is simply because the Democratic challenger is dominating cable news that the president consumes and leading in polls that the president watches closely. On Friday afternoon, the Biden campaign further established its early dominance by announcing that he had raised $6.3 million in his first 24 hours as a candidate — a figure that bests the first-day hauls of other Democrats. 

Others in Trump’s orbit, however, say that while Biden may be the candidate du jour, they are skeptical of his staying power.

“I don’t see how Biden is going to be able to survive the onslaught that’s coming from both the left and the right,” said Andy Surabian, a Republican strategist and former Trump White House official. “Because he’s not only leading the Democratic primary, but he’s also currently seen by most observers as the strongest opponent in a general election, Republicans are going to be launching as many arrows at him as his primary opponents are, and that’s the key thing — the attacks are going to be coming from all angles.”

The Trump campaign, for its part, is still hoping to focus on the Democrats more generally, painting them in broad strokes as socialists. Campaign communications director Tim Murtaugh said the goal is for the eventual Democratic nominee to be “saddled with all the socialist policies they will have adopted in order to win the nomination.”

“There is no centrist lane in the Democrat primary, and Joe Biden admitted as much when he said he had the most ‘progressive’ record of anybody in the field and claimed he had never been labeled a moderate in Delaware,” Murtaugh said in an emailed statement.

Biden’s announcement video began with a discussion of Charlottesville and Trump’s “both sides” statement.

“With those words, the president of the United States assigned a moral equivalence between those spreading hate and those with the courage to stand against it,” Biden said, staring directly into the camera. “And in that moment, I knew the threat to this nation was unlike any I had ever seen in my lifetime.”

The focus on Trump’s response to Charlottesville — one of the more-controversial moments in a presidency full of them — forced Trump on the defensive. On Friday, the president said he was simply referring to the people who were at the rally protesting the removal of a monument to Robert E. Lee, who, he added, “was one of the great generals.”

Biden’s campaign aides say they welcome the fight with Trump as a way to draw a general-election contrast. One of the main thrusts of Biden’s campaign is the argument that he is best positioned to counter Trump by winning over voters in the industrial Midwest who Trump carried in 2016, and advisers cite public and private polling that shows Biden has more standing than any other Democrat. 

But they are also eager to showcase the former vice president’s ability to go toe-to-toe with Trump on issues both substantive and petty in a way that most Democrats have struggled to do. 

 “If he looks young and vibrant compared to me, I should probably go home,” Biden said during his appearance on “The View.” “Everybody knows who Donald Trump is. The best way to judge me is watch. See if I have the energy and capacity. This is a show-me business.”

For all the differences the two candidates are eager to highlight between them, similarities abound. Both are old-school male politicians who have long had access to the corridors of power — politics for Biden, finance and entertainment for Trump — but still view themselves as outsiders. Biden grew up in a working-class Irish Catholic family, and Trump still sees himself as the outer-
borough Queens kid who could never gain the acceptance of Manhattan elites.  

They have also both embraced a reputation for authenticity, parlaying into an asset what for other politicians might be a liability leading to frequent gaffes.

Biden, again and again, has also demonstrated a Trump-like refusal to apologize. On Friday, that resistance was on display as he declined to apologize for pretty much anything during his interview on “The View.”

When asked about his interactions with women who said they felt uncomfortable when he hugged them, pressed his forehead against theirs, rubbed noses with them or sniffed their hair, he said he had learned a lesson but that he wasn’t exactly sorry. 

“So I invaded your space,” Biden said. “I’m sorry this happened. But — but I’m not sorry in the sense that I think I did anything that was intentionally designed to do anything wrong or be inappropriate.”

Trump, meanwhile, seemed determined to taunt Biden, as well as any other potential 2020 Democratic threats. 

“I would never say anyone is too old,” the president said Friday morning, before doing exactly that. “But I know they’re all making me look very young, both in terms of age and, I think, in terms of energy.”

Winter storm warning remains for portions of southern Minn.; 4 to 8 inches of snow possible – Southernminn.com

The National Weather Service has downgraded the winter storm warning for portions of southeast Minnesota to a winter weather advisory while the warning remains in place for other portions of the region.

The winter storm warning is still in effect for Waseca and Steele counties, where 4 to 7 inches of snow and 35 mph winds are predicted. 

The advisory is from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, covers Nicollet, LeSueur and Rice counties and the cities of Faribault, LeSueur and St. Peter. Those areas are expected to receive 2 to 4 inches of snow.

“The latest trend has the snow shifting to the south along I-90 and the Minnesota/Iowa border,” the Weather Service states.

Local maximum amounts of 8 inches are possible, the Weather Service states.

“East to northeast winds of 10 to 20 mph with gusts to 30 mph will accompany the snowfall, which will lead to some blowing and drifting,” the Weather Service states.

Temperatures are expected to quickly increase to above freezing after the snow ends, and travel conditions are expected to significantly improve by mid-afternoon, the Weather Service states.

Illinois child-welfare agency reassigns 2 workers amid boy’s death probe – 10TV
Illinois child-welfare agency reassigns 2 workers amid boy’s death probe – 10TV

CHICAGO (AP) — Officials with Illinois’ child-welfare agency said Friday they are reviewing cases involving the state’s youngest children in which caseworkers found insufficient evidence of abuse or neglect, after the beating death of a 5-year-old boy with a long history of contact with the agency.

The Department of Children and Family Services erred by overlooking a doctor’s report in which Andrew “AJ” Freund reported being hit with a belt, the officials told a legislative panel. AJ’s body, wrapped in plastic, was discovered Wednesday in a shallow grave in suburban Chicago.



AJ is the third child under the agency’s watch to die since February. Newly appointed acting director Marc D. Smith told the House Appropriations-Human Services Committee that “we are implementing changes as we go” but want to avoid knee-jerk reactions.

“We want to make sure that the information that our front-line staff are receiving helps them think about every decision that they make when deciding how to manage the needs of our families,” he said.

AJ’s parents, JoAnn Cunningham and Andrew Freund Sr., have been charged with murder and other crimes. Prosecutors allege they forced the boy to stand in a cold shower while they beat him. Family interaction with DCFS dates to 2012, before the birth of AJ and a younger brother, when Cunningham was a foster parent for DCFS. Trouble followed AJ from the start; he was born with opiates in his system.

A caseworker last visited the home in December, but bruising on AJ was attributed to the family dog. The case was closed in January despite a note in his file that indicated a “doctor was concerned because Andrew said, ‘Maybe someone hit me with a belt. Maybe Mommy didn’t mean to hurt me.'”

“That piece was missed,” Anne Gold, DCFS associate deputy for child protection, acknowledged under questioning. A child-abuse expert should have been consulted among other established steps, she said.

The caseworker and supervisor responsible for AJ’s case have been transferred to administrative duty with no work on family cases while the review continues, Smith said. Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker enlisted research center Chapin Hall at the University of Chicago to issue a report by next month on what Pritzker called “actionable recommendations” for the agency.

Gold did not specify a time frame for reviewing all “unfounded” allegations of abuse and neglect involving children three and younger. Rep. Anna Moeller, a Democrat from Elgin, said it should involve older kids too, particularly because AJ was 5.

“This mother has a history of opioid abuse This child is at risk already. I don’t understand how DCFS can allow that situation to stay the same when your caseworkers know that history,” Moeller said. “I would strongly encourage that the department to look at that process and make significant changes, because it’s very clear that DCFS should have done so much more to ensure that this child was safe.”

Smith noted he has requested 126 added positions in the budget year that begins July 1. Gold said a typical DCFS staff member has a workload of 12 to 15 cases. She did not know how that compares nationally, and accurate comparisons are elusive.

Problems in Illinois’ child welfare system date back decades. The system saw big improvements in the late 1990s and early 2000s, after a federal consent decree in response to a 1988 American Civil Liberties Union of Illinois lawsuit. But with frequent turnover among department leadership and funding cuts, DCFS “has sunk back into being completely broken,” said Benjamin Wolf, ACLU Illinois legal director.

The decree set new monthly cases at approximately 12. A political battle that led to a two-year budget stalemate from 2015 to 2017 sent caseloads as high as 30, said Wolf, who contended former Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner’s administration counted interns and employees on leave in order to make caseloads look lower. The ACLU went back to court last year and a special master was appointed to oversee DCFS compliance.

DCFS has released a detailed timeline of its interactions with AJ’s family but on Friday denied a Freedom of Information Act request from The Associated Press for all written records in the case since 2013. The agency explained such records may only be disclosed to the subject of a report or his or her representative or anyone authorized under state law to view them.

Specific information, such as names, status of an investigation, and protective actions taken, may be released under certain circumstances, including the arrest of a report’s subject or the death of the named child, two conditions met in this case.

Rep. Sara Feigenholtz, a Chicago Democrat and expert on child-welfare issues, said the state is doing a “lousy job” at recruiting foster parents to care for abused children removed from their biological homes. She blamed it in part on too great a focus on what otherwise is a laudable goal of reuniting biological families when possible. But social services for troubled families are lacking, she said.

“There are circumstances that we need to revisit with these very complex cases,” Feigenholtz said. “If we’re not going to create a stronger system for these families, we have really got to revisit removing some of these kids before they get murdered by their parents.”

New York Archdiocese names 120 priests accused of sex abuse – Fox News
New York Archdiocese names 120 priests accused of sex abuse – Fox News

NEW YORK – At least 120 priests accused of sexually abusing a child or having child pornography have worked in the Archdiocese of New York, the archdiocese said Friday in releasing a list of names that includes bishops, high school teachers, a scouting chaplain and a notorious cardinal.

The release, from the nation’s second-largest Roman Catholic archdiocese, follows more than 120 such disclosures from other dioceses around the country as the church reckons with demands for transparency about sex abuse by clergy.

In a letter to church members, Cardinal Timothy Dolan said he realizes “the shame that has come upon our church due to the sexual abuse of minors.” He asked forgiveness “for the failings of those clergy” who betrayed the trust invested in them to protect young people.

“It is my heartfelt prayer that together we as a family of faith may be healed,” Dolan added.

Church abuse watchdogs and lawyers for abuse accusers said the release of the list was a positive step, but some of them saw it as incomplete.

It doesn’t include accused members of religious orders who worked in the archdiocese’s churches and schools, though some orders have released their own lists. Nor does it list priests who were ordained elsewhere and later served in New York.

And there are no details on accused priests’ past assignments or the allegations against them, although some have emerged in news accounts, lawsuits and criminal cases.

“It’s certainly a good thing that they’ve come out with the list,” said Terry McKiernan of Bishop Accountability, a watchdog group. But “do they still not see that this very, very reluctant way of offering information about the crisis is the wrong way for them?”

Archdiocese spokesman Joseph Zwilling said that “the important thing is that we have released all of the names of priests that have a credible and substantiated charge brought against them,” plus those awaiting a church determination on allegations, and those newly accused through an archdiocese-run compensation process.

The program has paid out $65 million to over 350 people in the past three years.

The list includes priests ordained between 1908 and 1988. Many have died, and the archdiocese said none is currently working in the ministry.

Most of the alleged abuse happened in the 1970s, ’80s and early ’90s, but there have been two credible allegations of sex abuse by active clergy since 2002, according to the archdiocese. It said authorities were alerted about both those cases.

Some priests on the list were convicted of sex crimes, including the late Rev. Edward Pipala, who served seven years in federal prison after admitting in 1993 to taking at least 11 boys across state lines for illicit sex.

The list also includes once-high-ranking church officials.

Former Cardinal Theodore McCarrick, who was ordained in New York, became archbishop of Washington and one of the most visible church officials in the U.S.

Then, in February, he became the first cardinal defrocked in the sex abuse scandal of recent years. An internal church investigation had found him guilty. McCarrick’s lawyer declined to comment Friday.

Bishop John Jenik was removed from his public duties in November after being accused of inappropriate behavior with a teenage boy in the 1980s — an accusation he denies. The Vatican is reviewing the matter.

Bishop James McCarthy resigned in 2002 after the archdiocese was alerted about his affairs with women, which he acknowledged. He mentioned starting a relationship with a woman when she was around 21 years old, but some questions were later raised about whether she’d been underage.

No charges were filed, and the church hasn’t made a determination. A message was left Friday evening at a possible phone number for McCarthy.

Others were school leaders and teachers, deacons, parish priests, and clerics who worked with charities and youth groups.

One served as a Catholic Youth Organization director in New York and as national chaplain of the National Catholic Committee on Scouting in the 1970s, when he allegedly abused a boy at a summer camp, according to news accounts. The priest died in 1984, over two decades before the allegations became publicly known.

Based at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, the New York Archdiocese includes parts of New York City and several counties north of the city. The only U.S. archdiocese with more Catholics is that of Los Angeles.

Trump heeds NRA, decides to pull U.S. out of U.N. arms treaty – AOL
Trump heeds NRA, decides to pull U.S. out of U.N. arms treaty – AOL

INDIANAPOLIS, April 26 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump on Friday announced at the National Rifle Association’s annual meeting that the United States will drop out of an international arms treaty signed in 2013 by then-President Barack Obama but opposed by the NRA and other conservative groups.

Trump told members of the gun lobby that he intends to revoke the status of the United States as a signatory of the Arms Trade Treaty, which was never ratified by the U.S. Senate.

“We’re taking our signature back,” Trump said to thousands of cheering attendees, many wearing red hats emblazoned with the Republican president’s “Make America Great Again” slogan.

The NRA has long opposed the treaty which regulates the $70 billion business in conventional arms and seeks to keep weapons out of the hands of human rights abusers. The lobbying group argues it would undermine domestic gun rights, a view the Obama administration rejected.

Trump added that the United Nations will soon receive formal notice of the withdrawal.

The 193-nation U.N. General Assembly overwhelmingly approved the treaty in April 2013 and the United States, the world’s No. 1 arms exporter, voted in favor of it despite fierce opposition from the NRA.

Trump’s action drew an immediate rebuke from some international human rights groups.

“The United States will now lock arms with Iran, North Korea and Syria as non-signatories to this historic treaty whose sole purpose is to protect innocent people from deadly weapons,” said Oxfam America President Abby Maxman.

Adotei Akwei, of Amnesty International USA, said in a statement: “With this announcement the Trump administration will re-open the floodgates for arms sales with weakened human rights criteria.”

So far 101 countries have formally joined onto the treaty. Another 29, including the United States, have signed it, but not yet formally joined.

Trump was joined on his trip to Indianapolis by White House national security adviser John Bolton, an advocate of withdrawing the United States from international treaties out of concern they might undermine U.S. authority.

With Friday’s announcement, Trump continued his drive to roll back Obama-era initiatives.

Nearly two years ago, Trump announced that the United States would withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement, which aims to reduce global carbon emissions that scientists link to harmful climate change. Republicans argue the U.S. economy would suffer if it met the deal’s carbon-reduction goals.

In May, 2018, Trump pulled the United States out of a 2015 international deal that eased sanctions on Iran in exchange for strict limits being placed on Iran’s nuclear activities. The United States has since reimposed some sanctions that had been suspended under the deal.

    A majority of Americans say they oppose calls for Congress to launch impeachment proceedings against President Trump in the wake of special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and whether the president sought to interfere with the probe, according to a Washington Post-ABC News poll.

    Thirty-seven percent of Americans favor starting the process that could lead to impeachment, a slight dip over the past month, while 56 percent say they oppose the idea, about the same as a month ago.

    House Democrats are grappling with the question of how to proceed in light of Mueller’s findings and the public release of the redacted report, which detailed multiple examples of potential obstruction of justice.

    The new survey highlights the dilemma faced by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and other leaders in her caucus: While party leaders have sought to tamp down impeachment talk, worried that engaging in such a process would backfire in the 2020 elections, their political base supports it.

    Roughly 6 in 10 Democrats say they support the initiation of such an investigation in the House, with 53 percent saying they hold that view strongly. Meanwhile, nearly 9 in 10 Republicans oppose impeachment, with 78 percent strongly opposed.

    About 6 in 10 independents are against impeachment now, and independents are more opposed today than they were when measured in a January poll — a sign of the potential political danger for Democrats as they seek to win back key centrist voters in their goal of beating Trump next year.

    House Democratic leaders have said they will pursue various investigations, including possible obstruction of justice by the president, although they have so far stopped short of embracing the idea of impeachment. Some Democratic presidential candidates say the Mueller report justifies pursuing such proceedings, however, and are urging House leaders to move ahead.

    Overall, the Post-ABC survey finds that partisan allegiance colors the views of Americans about what the Mueller report found, what it means and what should be done as a result. But on one question there was agreement across the political spectrum.

    Mueller receives positive marks from Democrats and Republicans, with 53 percent of Democrats, 56 percent of Republicans and 51 percent of independents saying they believe the report was fair and evenhanded. Fewer than 3 in 10 of any partisan group say the report was not fair. That marks a significant shift in attitudes since January, when barely one-fifth of Republicans (22 percent) thought Mueller’s report would be fair, while 62 percent of Democrats had confidence in the special counsel to issue an evenhanded report.

    [Read full poll results | How the poll was conducted ]

    Trump has repeatedly denounced the investigation, both as it was taking place and since, calling the matter a “witch hunt” and allegations of collusion a “hoax.” The president’s credibility is called into question by a majority of Americans, with 58 percent saying they believed he has lied to the public about matters under investigation by the special counsel. One in 3 say they believe he has told the truth.

    Mueller’s report said the investigation did not establish that there was a conspiracy among Trump campaign officials to work with the Russians to sabotage the 2016 election, though there were many contacts between campaign associates and Russians with ties to the government detailed in the report.

    On the question of obstruction, the report cited multiple examples in which Trump appeared to seek to interfere with Mueller’s investigation, but Mueller said he believed Justice Department policy that says the president cannot be indicted in office also meant he should draw no conclusion as to whether the president committed a crime. For that reason, investigations did not offer a conclusion as to whether the president’s actions constituted obstruction. Attorney General William P. Barr declared that the findings did not justify a criminal charge of obstruction.

    The evidence of interference presented in the report has spurred Democrats to push for documents, hearings and testimony from current or former Trump administration officials, which is seen as a prelude to possible impeachment proceedings. Trump said earlier this week he opposes such testimony and will fight any subpoenas issued by House Democrats, setting up a lengthy legal clash and a standoff between the executive and legislative branches.

    Trump has declared “total exoneration” by the Mueller report, despite the clear statement in the report that investigators did not reach that conclusion. Asked their view of whether the report cleared Trump of all wrongdoing, 53 percent of Americans say it did not while 31 say it did. Among Republicans, 61 percent say they believe Mueller’s investigation cleared Trump of all wrongdoing, while 87 percent of Democrats say it did not.

    On the question of whether Trump tried to obstruct Mueller’s probe, 47 percent say he did try to interfere while 41 percent say he did not. This finding masks lopsided opinions among partisans. Roughly 8 in 10 Democrats say Trump tried to interfere with the investigation in a way that amounts to obstruction of justice, while almost 8 in 10 Republicans say Trump did not do this.

    In the current Post-ABC poll, Trump’s overall approval rating stands at 39 percent, a statistically insignificant change from January, when it was 37 percent. Among registered voters, his approval rating is 42 percent. His disapproval rating among all adults (as well as among registered voters) is at 54 percent, down slightly from 58 percent in January. At the time of the earlier survey, Trump and congressional Democrats were in a dispute over funding for a border wall, which had led to a partial shutdown of the government.

    A 58 percent majority of Americans say the Mueller report has not changed their impression of the Trump administration. Among those whose views have changed, 23 percent say they view the administration more negatively while 11 percent view it more positively.

    Slightly more than 1 in 3 Americans say the Mueller investigation makes them less likely to support Trump’s reelection in 2020, while 14 percent say they are more likely and a plurality of 46 percent say the findings are not a factor in their choice for the next election. Unsurprisingly, the biggest block of people who say they are more likely to oppose Trump for reelection is among Democrats.

    The survey finds a clear partisan split on the question of whether, based on the Mueller report and other available information, the Russian efforts to interfere in the 2016 election undermine the legitimacy of the outcome. Overall, 49 percent say it did not rise to that level, while 42 percent say the Russian role undermined the election’s legitimacy. Roughly 7 in 10 Democrats say it did, while about 8 in 10 Republicans say it did not.

    Looking forward, 76 percent of Democrats say possible Russian interference represents a threat — major or not so major — to the legitimacy of the 2020 election, while 61 percent of Republicans say it does not threaten its legitimacy.

    Support for impeachment is higher among Americans younger than 40 than among those older. It is highest among African Americans, 69 percent of whom say they favor it. The strongest opposition to impeachment comes from white evangelical Christians, white men without college degrees, white mainline Protestants and white Catholics. Support is higher in the Northeast and in the West than it is in the South and the Midwest.

    The Post-ABC poll was conducted by telephone April 22-25 among a random national sample of 1,001 adults, with 65 percent reached on cellphones and 35 percent on landlines. Overall results have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.

      Joe Biden Raises $6.3 Million, Topping Rivals’ First-Day Hauls – The New York Times
      Joe Biden Raises $6.3 Million, Topping Rivals’ First-Day Hauls – The New York Times

      Mr. Biden has the advantage of national name recognition and broad popularity among Democrats. But he is also expected to quickly assemble a robust staff that must be paid.

      On Thursday, his campaign announced 26 “key campaign hires” who will work for Mr. Biden at the national level, and it has even more people lined up in the states that will begin the nominating contest: Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada.

      [Read more: Mr. Biden declined to directly apologize to Anita Hill on Friday.]

      Mr. Biden spent his first evening as a presidential candidate at the Philadelphia-area home of David L. Cohen, a top executive at Comcast and a former political operative who is one of the Democratic Party’s leading fund-raisers.

      A roster of prominent Pennsylvania politicians were listed as hosts of the event, as well as, among others, Daniel J. Hilferty, the chief executive of the major health insurer Independence Health Group, the parent of Independence Blue Cross.

      “It’s gauche to talk about money, so I’m not going to talk about money,” Mr. Cohen said at the fund-raiser, according to a recording of his remarks. “But all I’m going to say is that once again this group has produced an event that is off the charts, beyond anyone’s expectations.”

      Mr. Biden’s rivals took note of his entry. Mr. Sanders, Mr. O’Rourke, Cory Booker, Julián Castro, Kamala Harris and Jay Inslee all emailed supporters with Mr. Biden’s name in the subject line on Thursday to gin up their own donations.

      The message from Mr. Sanders’s campaign was pointed about how Mr. Biden was spending his evening. “It’s a big day in the Democratic primary and we’re hoping to end it strong,” the email said. “Not with a fundraiser in the home of a corporate lobbyist, but with an overwhelming number of individual donations.”

      Trump defends ‘a great general’ who fought against the U.S.: Robert E. Lee – AOL
      Trump defends ‘a great general’ who fought against the U.S.: Robert E. Lee – AOL

      President Trump on Friday defended saying there were “very fine people on both sides” of the deadly clashes in Charlottesville, Va., between white nationalists and counterprotesters in 2017.

      The president spoke outside the White House a day after former Vice President Joe Biden launched his presidential bid with a video condemning Trump for the controversial remarks.

      “I was talking about people that felt very strongly about the monument to Robert E. Lee, a great general whether you like it or not,” Trump told reporters on the South Lawn before departing for the National Rifle Association’s annual convention.

      The president claimed he had spoken to active duty generals who told him Lee, a U.S. Army officer who defected to the Confederate side and led the Army of Northern Virginia, was their “favorite general.”

      “People were there protesting the taking down of the monument of Robert E. Lee,” Trump added. “Everybody knows that.”

      The weekend of “Unite The Right” protests in Charlottesville in August 2017 were organized by a group of white supremacists.

      Though nominally about the preservation of a statue honoring Lee, the underlying objective of Unite the Right was to bring various factions of the largely internet-based alt-right movement together in real life. The rallies began with neo-Nazis marching through the University of Virginia campus carrying tiki torches and chanting “Jews will not replace us!”

      Heather Heyer, 23, was killed when a car driven by a neo-Nazi plowed into a group of counterprotesters. Two state police officers were also killed when their helicopter crashed while monitoring the clashes.

      Trump’s response blaming “both sides” for the violence, which was widely criticized, was the centerpiece of Biden’s campaign launch video.

      “He said there were ‘some very fine people on both sides.’ Very fine people on both sides,” Biden said in the video posted to YouTube Thursday. “With those words, the president of the United States assigned a moral equivalence between those spreading hate and those with the courage to stand against it. And in that moment, I knew the threat to this nation was unlike any I had ever seen in my lifetime.”

      At the time, Biden said, the events in Charlottesville convinced him we were in a “battle for the soul of this nation.” He predicted “history will look back on four years of this president and all he embraces as an aberrant moment in time.”

      “But if we give Donald Trump eight years in the White House, he will forever and fundamentally alter the character of this nation, who we are,” the former vice president added. “And I cannot stand by and watch that happen.”

      April 26 at 3:00 PM

      A majority of Americans say they oppose calls for Congress to launch impeachment proceedings against President Trump in the wake of special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and whether the president sought to interfere with the probe, according to a Washington Post-ABC News poll.

      Thirty-seven percent of Americans favor starting the process that could lead to impeachment, a slight dip over the past month, while 56 percent say they oppose the idea, about the same as a month ago.

      House Democrats are grappling with the question of how to proceed in light of Mueller’s findings and the public release of the redacted report, which detailed multiple examples of potential obstruction of justice.

      The new survey highlights the dilemma faced by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and other leaders in her caucus: While party leaders have sought to tamp down impeachment talk, worried that engaging in such a process would backfire in the 2020 elections, their political base supports it.

      Roughly 6 in 10 Democrats say they support the initiation of such an investigation in the House, with 53 percent saying they hold that view strongly. Meanwhile, nearly 9 in 10 Republicans oppose impeachment, with 78 percent strongly opposed.

      About 6 in 10 independents are against impeachment now, and independents are more opposed today than they were when measured in a January poll — a sign of the potential political danger for Democrats as they seek to win back key centrist voters in their goal of beating Trump next year.

      House Democratic leaders have said they will pursue various investigations, including possible obstruction of justice by the president, although they have so far stopped short of embracing the idea of impeachment. Some Democratic presidential candidates say the Mueller report justifies pursuing such proceedings, however, and are urging House leaders to move ahead.

      Overall, the Post-ABC survey found that partisan allegiance colors the views of Americans about what the Mueller report found, what it means and what should be done as a result. But on one question there was agreement across the political spectrum.

      Mueller receives positive marks from Democrats and Republicans, with 53 percent of Democrats, 56 percent of Republicans and 51 percent of independents saying they believed the report was fair and evenhanded. Fewer than 3 in 10 of any partisan group say the report was not fair. That marks a significant shift in attitudes since January, when barely one-fifth of Republicans (22 percent) thought Mueller’s report would be fair, while 62 percent of Democrats had confidence in the special counsel to issue an evenhanded report.

      [Read full poll results | How the poll was conducted ]

      Trump has repeatedly denounced the investigation, both as it was taking place and since, calling the matter a “witch hunt” and allegations of collusion a “hoax.” The president’s credibility is called into question by a majority of Americans, with 58 percent saying they believed he has lied to the public about matters under investigation by the special counsel. One in 3 say they believe he has told the truth.

      Mueller’s report said the investigation did not establish that there was a conspiracy among Trump campaign officials to work with the Russians to sabotage the 2016 election, though there were many contacts between campaign associates and Russians with ties to the government detailed in the report.

      On the question of obstruction, the report cited multiple examples in which Trump appeared to seek to interfere with Mueller’s investigation, but Mueller said he believed Justice Department policy that says the president cannot be indicted in office also meant he should draw no conclusion as to whether the president committed a crime. For that reason, investigations did not offer a conclusion as to whether the president’s actions constituted obstruction. Attorney General William P. Barr declared that the findings did not justify a criminal charge of obstruction.

      The evidence of interference presented in the report has spurred Democrats to push for documents, hearings and testimony from current or former Trump administration officials, which is seen as a prelude to possible impeachment proceedings. Trump said earlier this week he opposes such testimony and will fight any subpoenas issued by House Democrats, setting up a lengthy legal clash and a standoff between the executive and legislative branches.

      Trump has declared “total exoneration” by the Mueller report, despite the clear statement in the report that investigators did not reach that conclusion. Asked their view of whether the report cleared Trump of all wrongdoing, 53 percent of Americans say it did not while 31 say it did. Among Republicans, 61 percent say they believe Mueller’s investigation cleared Trump of all wrongdoing, while 87 percent of Democrats say it did not.

      On the question of whether Trump tried to obstruct Mueller’s probe, 47 percent say he did try to interfere while 41 percent say he did not. This finding masks lopsided opinions among partisans. Roughly 8 in 10 Democrats say Trump tried to interfere with the investigation in a way that amounts to obstruction of justice, while almost 8 in 10 Republicans say Trump did not do this.

      In the current Post-ABC poll, Trump’s overall approval rating stands at 39 percent, a statistically insignificant change from January, when it was 37 percent. Among registered voters, his approval rating is 42 percent. His disapproval rating among all adults (as well as among registered voters) is at 54 percent, down slightly from 58 percent in January. At the time of the earlier survey, Trump and congressional Democrats were in a dispute over funding for a border wall, which had led to a partial shutdown of the government.

      A 58 percent majority of Americans say the Mueller report has not changed their impression of the Trump administration. Among those whose views have changed, 23 percent say they view the administration more negatively while 11 percent view it more positively.

      Slightly more than 1 in 3 Americans say the Mueller investigation makes them less likely to support Trump’s reelection in 2020, while 14 percent say they are more likely and a plurality of 46 percent say the findings are not a factor in their choice for the next election. Unsurprisingly, the biggest block of people who say they are more likely to oppose Trump for reelection is among Democrats.

      The survey found a clear partisan split on the question of whether, based on the Mueller report and other available information, the Russian efforts to interfere in the 2016 election undermine the legitimacy of the outcome. Overall, 49 percent say it did not rise to that level, while 42 percent say the Russian role undermined the election’s legitimacy. Roughly 7 in 10 Democrats say it did, while about 8 in 10 Republicans say it did not.

      Looking forward, 76 percent of Democrats say possible Russian interference represents a threat — major or not so major — to the legitimacy of the 2020 election, while 61 percent of Republicans say it does not threaten its legitimacy.

      Support for impeachment is higher among Americans younger than 40 than among those older. It is highest among African Americans, 69 percent of whom say they favor it. The strongest opposition to impeachment comes from white evangelical Christians, white men without college degrees, white mainline Protestants and white Catholics. Support is higher in the Northeast and in the West than it is in the South and the Midwest.

      The Post-ABC poll was conducted by telephone April 22-25 among a random national sample of 1,001 adults, with 65 percent reached on cellphones and 35 percent on landlines. Overall results have a 3.5-percentage-point margin of sampling error for the full sample.

      Rod Rosenstein criticizes the Obama administration for its handling of the Russia investigation

      Former Arkansas Republican Governor Mike Huckabee says Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s critical comments about the Obama administration were a soft way of saying there was a cover up.

      Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee said Friday that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s rare public criticism of the Obama administration was a “soft” way of accusing the previous administration of covering up Russia’s attempts at hacking the 2016 presidential election.

      While speaking Thursday in New York at the Public Servants Dinner of the Armenian Bar Association, Rosenstein said that the Obama administration “chose not to publicize the full story about Russian computer hackers and social media trolls and how they relate to Russia’s broader strategy to undermine America.”

      During an appearance on “America’s Newsroom” Friday morning, Huckabee called the comments an “unusually candid moment for Rosenstein.”

      “I thought it was a soft way of him saying there was a cover-up,” Huckabee said. “They knew the Russians were attempting to influence the election and attempting to hack the election but they didn’t fully disclose that to the American people and certainly didn’t disclose it to the Trump campaign.

      SWALWELL NOT CERTAIN TRUMP ISN’T A ‘RUSSIAN ASSET’

      “Instead they tried to set a trap for them. It failed. The Trump team did not take the bait. And that’s the one conclusion that we can certainly come away with from the $35 million worth of investigation,” Huckabee continued.

      Video

      Next week, Attorney General William Barr will testify before Congress and is expected to answer questions about Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation of President Trump, which found that there was not adequate evidence to conclude that President Trump and his administration colluded with Russia, though the president could not be exonerated in terms of the possibility that he obstructed justice.

      Barr will testify to the Senate Judiciary Committee next Wednesday and to the House Judiciary Committee the following day.

      TRUMP ASSESSES 2020 DEMS; TAKES SWIPES AT BIDEN, SANDERS; DISMISSES HARRIS, O’ROURKE; SAYS HE’S ROOTING FOR BUTTIGIEG 

      “It is going to be a theater, an absolute show,” Huckabee said of the hearings. “Just like the Kavanaugh hearings were and like everything else is in Congress. We ought to close the curtain on them and can’t come back until after the election. They aren’t doing their job anyway. We aren’t paying them because they’re doing a wonderful service to the country and spare us the hypocrisy of thinking they’re interested in getting to the bottom of the facts,” he continued.

      Ultimately, Huckabee argued, if Americans “took their partisan hats off,” they would see that President Trump was exonerated by the investigation.

      Biden battles his past as Democratic race shapes up

      Shortly after Joe Biden launched his 2020 presidential campaign, the New York Times published an interview with Anita Hill, who said she was still not satisfied after Biden contacted her to express regret for how he handled her 1991 testimony against Clarence Thomas. Biden is already a frontrunner in primary polls but faces scrutiny over several chapters in his lengthy record, including the Thomas hearings. “I will be satisfied when I know there is real change,” Hill said.

      • Wrong approach. Biden’s vague centrism and his promise of a return to a pre-Trump America is really just a return to the same strategy that lost Hillary Clinton the 2016 election, says Arwa Mahdawi.

      • Bernie booed. Seven of Biden’s Democratic rivals appeared in Houston this week at the first ever She the People event, focusing on female voters of colour. Bernie Sanders was booed for his halting answer to a question on violence against women. Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren received a warmer welcome.

      More than 1,000 migrants escape detention in Mexico

      A group of about 1,300 Cuban, Haitian and Central American people broke out of a detention center in southern Mexico on Thursday, a sign of how stretched the country’s resources have become amid a surge in new arrivals. About half of the escapees have since returned to the Siglo XXI facility in Tapachula, close to the border with Guatemala, but approximately 600 remain unaccounted for.

      • Family separation. A federal judge has given the Trump administration six months to identify the potentially thousands of children who were separated from their families at the US-Mexico border in 2017 and 2018.

      • Asylum seeker. A transgender asylum seeker from Honduras who spent a year in immigration centres has been re-detained by Ice a week after her release.

      Devastated Mozambique struck by strongest-ever storm


       Cyclone Kenneth hits Mozambique as country still reeling from devastation of Idai– video

      Cyclone Kenneth, the strongest storm ever to strike Mozambique, has made landfall in the north five weeks after Cyclone Idai tore through the centre of the country. Cyclone Kenneth hit Cabo Delgado province with wind speeds of 140mph, surpassing Idai and threatening waves up to five metres higher than normal. Mozambique’s disaster relief agency said it would relocate rescue equipment from Beira, the area worst affected by Idai.

      • Climate change. Eric Holthaus, a meteorologist, told the Guardian that the extremity of the storm and the “blocking pattern” holding it in place were both likely influenced by climate change.

      News organisations call for Weinstein trial to be public

      News organisations are battling for access to the next stage of legal proceedings in Harvey Weinstein’s sexual assault case, after both prosecutors and the film producer’s defence team demanded the hearing on Friday be held behind closed doors. Such hearings are normally open to the public, but prosecutors say they want to protect the privacy of Weinstein’s accusers, while his lawyers argue that news coverage of their testimony could taint the jury pool.

      • Assault allegations. The two sides are set to argue on Friday over whether to allow testimony at trial from women who have accused Weinstein of sexual assault, but whose claims are not included in the criminal charges.

      The dangers of driving while high

      Opinion

      As Detroit’s health director, Abdul El-Sayed realised the forces causing climate change were the same forces that caused chronic asthma among his city’s children. He supports the Green New Deal, he says, because it is also a Public Health New Deal.


      The Green New Deal recognizes that the challenges of stopping climate change and providing low-income kids what they need to thrive are not mutually exclusive – rather they are mutually inclusive.

      Washington (CNN)A federal judge sentenced Russia national Maria Butina to 18 months in prison on Friday, after she pleaded guilty to trying to infiltrate conservative political circles and promote Russian interests before and after the 2016 presidential election.

          CNN’s Marshall Cohen contributed to this report.

        How Joe Biden’s candidacy will be different from his runs in 1988 and 2008 – Washington Examiner

        After months of speculation, former Vice President Joe Biden has finally entered the 2020 presidential race.

        In a campaign announcement video he released Thursday morning, Biden said, “The core values of this nation, our standing in the world, our very democracy, everything that has made America — America — is at stake. That’s why today I’m announcing my candidacy for president of the United States.”

        This is Biden’s third presidential run. So, how will his candidacy differ this time from his runs in 1988 and 2008?

        When Biden announced he was running for president the first time in June 1987, he was only 44 years old and the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. He was widely regarded as one of the strongest candidates in the race. But Biden’s campaign started to go off the rails when he was accused of plagiarizing the speech of British Labour Party leader Neil Kinnock.

        On Sept. 12, 1987, Biden was reported saying in a speech, “I started thinking as I was coming over here, why is it that Joe Biden is the first in his family ever to go to a university?”

        Kinnock delivered an address earlier that year in May when he said, “Why am I the first Kinnock in a thousand generations to be able to get to university?”

        Shortly thereafter, the media caught wind of Biden’s plagiarism incident when he was a student at Syracuse University College of Law. It was later discovered that he exaggerated his academic record. He withdrew from the campaign on Sept. 23, 1987.

        Biden sought the Democratic nomination again in 2008 seeking to dethrone the front-runner at the time, Hillary Clinton.

        Biden announced his candidacy in January 2007, and concentrated heavily on attacking Republicans for the war in Iraq. But in 2003, Biden had voted in favor of the authorization of the use of military force in Iraq, but later said the war was a mistake.

        Throughout his run, Biden was plagued by his own cultural insensitivities and that he didn’t know when to shut his mouth.

        Speaking to a reporter from the New York Observer, Biden said of Barack Obama, his colleague in the Senate and opponent in the 2008 Democratic primary, “I mean, you got the first mainstream African American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy, I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”

        He was criticized later for comments he made on-camera in 2006 about Indian Americans, saying, “I’ve had a great relationship. In Delaware, the largest growth in population is Indian Americans moving from India. You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I’m not joking.”

        While Biden withdrew from the 2008 race after placing fifth in the Iowa caucuses, Barack Obama picked him as his running mate.

        For the 2020 election cycle, Biden faces entirely new hurdles.

        As the Democratic Party moves further to the left to embrace socialist ideas such as “Medicare for all” and the “Green New Deal,” Biden is seen as almost too moderate for the Democratic field.

        During the #MeToo era, Biden has faced criticism for his handling of Anita Hill’s sexual harassment allegation against then-Supreme Court nominee Clarence Thomas. And in early 2019, Biden himself was accused by several women of unwanted physical contact.

        And with respect to race relations, Biden has come under scrutiny for writing and supporting the 1994 crime bill, which many argue disproportionately harmed black communities. In the mid-1970s, Biden was even a vocal opponent of desegregating schools.

        The question that Democrats need to ask themselves is: Are they willing to overlook these parts of Biden’s past in order to defeat President Trump in 2020? If Trump was able to win over much of the Republican Party after intense scrutiny over his past, perhaps there’s some hope for Biden.

        Asked if he would say he was sorry to the women who have complained that he touched them inappropriately over the years, Mr. Biden repeatedly refused to give a direct apology. “Here’s the deal: I have to be much more aware of the private space of men and women — it’s not just women, but primarily women,” he said.

        Pressed further by the hosts, he said: “I’m really sorry if what I did in talking to them, trying to console, that in fact they took it a different way.” He then addressed the women directly, saying, “Sorry I invaded your space,” though he said he did not do anything to make anyone uncomfortable intentionally.

        In a lengthy telephone interview earlier this week, Ms. Hill told The Times that the call from Mr. Biden had left her feeling deeply unsatisfied. She declined to characterize Mr. Biden’s words to her as an apology and said she was not convinced that he has taken full responsibility for his conduct at the hearings.

        “I cannot be satisfied by simply saying, ‘I’m sorry for what happened to you,’” said Ms. Hill, now a professor of social policy, law and women’s studies at Brandeis University. “I will be satisfied when I know there is real change and real accountability and real purpose.”

        “The focus on apology, to me, is one thing,” Ms. Hill added. “But he needs to give an apology to the other women and to the American public because we know now how deeply disappointed Americans around the country were about what they saw.”

        The Biden campaign said Thursday that it would have no comment beyond its initial statement about the call.

        Mr. Biden and Ms. Hill “had a private discussion where he shared with her directly his regret for what she endured and his admiration for everything she has done to change the culture around sexual harassment in this country,” said the deputy campaign manager, Kate Bedingfield.

        “The View” is the first of only a handful of appearances and events that the Biden campaign has announced. He is set to deliver remarks on Monday in Pittsburgh about “an inclusive middle class” and then campaign Tuesday and Wednesday in Iowa.

        Pentagon set to expand military role along southern border – The Washington Post
        Pentagon set to expand military role along southern border – The Washington Post

        The Pentagon is preparing to approve a loosening of rules that bar troops from interacting with migrants entering the United States, expanding the military’s involvement in President Trump’s operation along the southern border.

        Senior Defense Department officials have recommended that acting defense secretary Patrick Shanahan approve a new request from the Department of Homeland Security to provide military lawyers, cooks and drivers to assist with handling a surge of migrants along the southern border.

        The move would require authorizing waivers for more than 300 troops to a long-standing policy prohibiting military personnel from coming into contact with migrants.

        The Pentagon has approved only one previous request to waive the policy since the beginning of Trump’s recent border buildup, in order to provide migrants with emergency medical care if required. There are about 2,900 active-duty and 2,000 National Guard troops along the border.

        Shanahan is expected to sign the request on Friday.

        According to internal Pentagon documents obtained by The Washington Post, the requested expansion of military activity along the border would cost an estimated $21.9 million through the end of fiscal year 2019.

        In a sign of the sensitivities surrounding a move that might be seen as putting troops in a law enforcement role, the documents note that military personnel would remain in a “segregated driver’s compartment” when driving migrants to detention facilities. Customs and Border Protection officials would provide security on those trips.

        Likewise, when they are asked to distribute food to migrants in detention facilities and periodically “document the provision of care” of those detained migrants, they would be accompanied at all times by law enforcement personnel.

        As part of the proposal, military attorneys meanwhile would assist with deportation hearings in New Mexico, Louisiana and New York.

        All of those activities, the documents note, require Shanahan to “grant a temporary exception to the ‘no contact with migrants’ policy.’ ” The documents also note that military personnel are barred from undertaking law enforcement activities in keeping with the Posse Comitatus Act.

        The request comes as an unprecedented surge of Central American families arriving at the U.S. southern border pushes American agents to “the breaking point,” according to DHS officials. Last month, U.S. authorities processed more than 103,000 migrants, the highest one-month total in more than a decade.

        Border Patrol officials say overwhelmed agents are being pulled away from their law enforcement duties because they are so busy caring for migrant parents and children. The shortage of drivers and agents who can chaperone migrants to hospitals has been especially acute.

        In the El Paso area, where the strain on Border Patrol resources has been greatest, groups of migrant families who cross the border to surrender to authorities sometimes wait for hours because there are no agents to come pick them up with vans and buses.

        CBP officers have been reassigned from ports of entry to drive vehicles and perform other support roles for border agents, but that has exacerbated wait times for commercial trucks and passenger vehicles crossing from Mexico.
