Master Reference Master Les femmes politiques dans les tweets du président américain Donald J. Trump MERZ, Céline Abstract À travers une étude empirique mixte, associant l'analyse de contenu et l'analyse du discours, nous nous intéressons dans cette étude aux femmes politiques, telles qu'elles sont « parlées » par le président américain Donald Trump sur le réseau socionumérique Twitter. Ainsi, ce travail propose d'analyser le langage du président américain Donald Trump sur Twitter envers les femmes politiques sur une période de deux années à partir de son investiture, en s'appuyant sur les concepts de communication incivile et d'injures sexistes, respectivement développés par Ott (2017) et Oger (2006).

    Congress and the War in Yemen: Oversight and Legislation 2015-2019 Updated February 1, 2019 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R45046 Congress and the War in Yemen: Oversight and Legislation 2015-2019 Summary This product provides an overview of the role Congress has played in shaping U.S. policy toward the conflict in Yemen. Summary tables provide information on legislative proposals considered in the 115th and 116th Congresses. Various legislative proposals have reflected a range of congressional perspectives and priorities, including with regard to the authorization of the activities of the U.S. Armed Forces related to the conflict; the extent of U.S. logistical, material, advisory, and intelligence support for the coalition led by Saudi Arabia; the approval, disapproval, or conditioning of U.S. arms sales to Saudi Arabia; the appropriation of funds for U.S. operations in support of the Saudi-led coalition; the conduct of the Saudi-led coalition’s air campaign and its adherence to international humanitarian law and the laws of armed conflict; the demand for greater humanitarian access to Yemen; the call for a wider government assessment of U.S. policy toward Yemen and U.S. support to parties to the conflict; the nature and extent of U.S.-Saudi counterterrorism and border security cooperation; and the role of Iran in supplying missile technology and other weapons to the forces of the Houthi movement. The 116th Congress may continue to debate U.S. support for the Saudi-led coalition and Saudi Arabia’s conduct of the war in Yemen, where fighting has continued since March 2015.

  • Trump Lawyer Seeks to Block Insider Book on White House
    The Washington Post Politics Trump lawyer seeks to block insider book on White House By Josh Dawsey and Ashley Parker January 4 at 9:30 AM A lawyer representing President Trump sought Thursday to stop the publication of a new behind-the-scenes book about the White House that has already led Trump to angrily decry his former chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon. The legal notice — addressed to author Michael Wolff and the president of the book’s publisher — said Trump’s lawyers were pursuing possible charges including libel in connection with the forthcoming book, “Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House.” The letter by Beverly Hills-based attorney Charles J. Harder demanded the publisher, Henry Holt and Co., “immediately cease and desist from any further publication, release or dissemination of the book” or excerpts and summaries of its contents. The lawyers also seek a full copy of the book as part of their investigation. The latest twist in the showdown came after lawyers accused Bannon of breaching a confidentiality agreement and Trump denounced his former aide as a self-aggrandizing political charlatan who has “lost his mind.” It marked an abrupt and furious rupture with the onetime confidant that could have lasting political impact on the November midterms and beyond. The White House’s sharp public break with Bannon, which came in response to unflattering comments he made about Trump and his family in a new book about his presidency, left the self-fashioned populist alienated from his chief patron and even more isolated in his attempts to remake the Republican Party by backing insurgent candidates.

    Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2020 Remarks in a Meeting With African American Leaders and an Exchange With Reporters February 27, 2020 The President. Well, I want to thank you very much. We're here with some of the Black leaders of our country and people that are highly respected and people that have done a fantastic job and, for the most part, have been working on this whole situation with me right from the beginning. Participants. Yes. Yes. The President. And we've done a lot. We've done Opportunity Zones. We've done criminal justice reform. We've done things that people didn't even think possible. Criminal justice reform—we've let a lot of great people out of jail. Participants. Yes! [Applause] The President. And you know, Alice Johnson is, really, just such a great example. A fine woman. And she doesn't say she didn't do it; she made a mistake. But she was in there for 22 years when we let her out, and she had practically another 20 left. Participant. She did. The President. And that's not appropriate. Alveda King Ministries Founder Alveda C. King. Her children grew up, her grandbabies. The President. Yes, I know. So incredible. And you couldn't produce—there's nobody is Hollywood that could have produced that last scene of her. Ms. King. Amen. Amazing. The President. That was the real deal—of her when she saw her kids. So it's really a fantastic thing. So what I think I do is I'd like to—for the media, I'd like to go around the room, and we can do just a quick introduction of each other.

Ford Attorney General State of Nevada 100 North Carson Street Carson City, NV 89701 Re: Request for investigation of potential Nevada open public meeting violation and election irregularities Dear Attorney General Ford: Nevadans rightly prize honest and fair elections, as well as transparency in governmental decision making. Unfortunately, recent deeply troubling events in Clark County have placed both of those interests under attack. On behalf of the Republican National Committee and the Nevada Republican Party, I ask you to investigate under NRS 241.039 whether those events violated Nevada’s open public meeting law, and to investigate under NRS 293.840 whether the consequences of Clark County’s decisions have violated Nevada’s election laws. I. Background In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Secretary of State Barbara Cegavske announced in March 2020 that the June 9 primary would be an all-mail election. As you know, the Democratic National Committee and the Nevada State Democratic Party—together with a handful of related entities and individual plaintiffs—were not content with the Secretary’s plan. They sued her; the head elections officials in Clark, Washoe, and Elko Counties; and you in the First Judicial District Court in Carson City. See Corona et al. v. Cegavske et al., No. CV 20-OC- 00064-1B. 1 The Republican National Committee and Nevada Republican Party intervened as defendants because the plaintiffs there challenged long-standing, common-sense Nevada laws expressly designed to further Nevada’s constitutional interest in “preserv[ing] the purity of elections.” Nev.
