The report raises serious concerns about the Department’s Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) which require a response from Department leadership. The report details a series of problems related to the legality of I&A operations, I&A’s relationships with other federal as well as state and local authorities, the allocation of resources and personnel, management and the internal climate at I&A, and accountability. We request that the Department provide the Congress an explanation of how it will address each of these issues, the extent to which the Department accepts and intends to implement the recommendations included in the report, and any additional reforms the Department may support.

  • Fired for Being Gay: Should Arkansas Ban This Form of Discrimination?
    Fired for Being Gay: Should Arkansas Ban This Form of Discrimination? I. INTRODUCTION Picture this—you were offered a new job and prepared to move across the country, only to learn that the job was no longer yours because the company discovered that you are gay.1 What if you were forced to resign following your wedding celebration because your boss and colleagues did not approve of your new spouse?2 Or, what if, while expecting your first child with your lesbian partner, you were dismissed from your job because your colleagues heard the good news?3 In this third scenario, you even consulted an attorney, only to discover that the law would not protect you unless you were pregnant.4 However, because your partner was carrying the child, you had no recourse. These real-world examples demonstrate the missed opportunities suffered by many based simply on their sexual orientation. Further, it is a fate that many Arkansans could face if they reveal their sexual orientation in the workplace.5 To prevent this, Arkansas should ban workplace discrimination on The author would like to thank Eva C. Madison, Shareholder, Littler Mendelson P.C., and Brittany H. Pettingill, J.D. 2014, University of Arkansas School of Law, for their guidance and thoughtful insight during the drafting of this comment. The author would also like to thank her family, especially Kenneth King, Sandra King, and Emmanuel Asamoa, for their endless love and encouragement. 1.

Verma said $30 billion of that money will be grants with no strings attached from the $100 billion in funds for hospitals designated in the third coronavirus stimlus package passed last month. Treating Uninsured Could Soak Up 40% of Fund: The Trump administration’s plan to reimburse hospitals for treating uninsured patients with Covid-19 could consume more than 40% of the $100 billion fund lawmakers authorized to help hospitals, the Kaiser Family Foundation said in a report yesterday. It comes as the White House is under fire from Democrats and health-care advocates for not reopening HealthCare.gov to get more uninsured people covered in the face of the outbreak.

  • GIRL with a CAMERA a Novel of Margaret Bourke-White
    GIRL WITH A CAMERA A Novel of Margaret Bourke-White, Photographer Commented [CY1]: Add Photographer? By Carolyn Meyer Carolyn Meyer 100 Gold Avenue SW #602 Albuquerque, NM 87102 505-362-6201 [email protected] 2 GIRL WITH A CAMERA Sometime after midnight, a thump—loud and jarring. A torpedo slams into the side of our ship, flinging me out of my bunk. The ship is transporting thousands of troops and hundreds of nurses. It is December 1942, and our country is at war. I am Margaret Bourke-White, the only woman photographer covering this war. The U.S. Army Air Forces has handed me a plum assignment: photographing an Allied attack on the Germans. I wanted to fly in one of our B-17 bombers, but the top brass ordered me to travel instead in the flagship of a huge convoy, headed from England through the Straits of Gibraltar towards the coast of North Africa. It would be safer than flying, the officers argued. As it turns out, they were dead wrong. Beneath the surface of the Mediterranean, German submarines glide, silent and lethal, stalking their prey. One of their torpedoes has found its mark. I grab my camera bag and one camera, leaving everything else behind, and race to the bridge. I hear the order blare: Abandon ship! Abandon ship! There is not enough light and not enough time to take photographs. I head for Lifeboat No. 12 and board with the others assigned to it, mostly nurses. We’ve drilled for it over and over, but this is not a drill.

  • In This Week's Issue
    For Immediate Release: March 20, 2017 IN THIS WEEK’S ISSUE How Robert Mercer, a Reclusive Hedge-Fund Tycoon, Exploited America’s Populist Insurgency In the March 27, 2017, issue of The New Yorker, in “Trump’s Money Man” (p. 34), Jane Mayer profiles Robert Mercer, a reclusive Long Is- land billionaire and hedge-fund manager, and his daughter Rebekah, who exploited America’s populist insurgency to become a major force behind the Trump Presidency. Stephen Bannon, the President’s top strategist, told Mayer, “The Mercers laid the groundwork for the Trump revolution. Irrefutably, when you look at donors during the past four years, they have had the single biggest impact of anybody.” In the 2016 campaign, Mercer gave $22.5 million in disclosed donations to Republican candidates and to political-action committees. He also funded a rash of political projects and operatives. His influence was visible last month, in North Charleston, South Carolina, when Trump conferred privately with Patrick Caddell, a pollster who has worked for Mercer. Following their discussion, Trump issued a tweet calling the news media “the enemy of the American people.” Mayer writes, “The President is known for tweeting impulsively, but in this case his words weren’t spontaneous: they clearly echoed the thinking of Caddell, Bannon, and Mercer.” In 2012, Caddell had given a speech in which he called the media “the enemy of the American people.” That declaration was promoted by Breitbart News, a platform for the pro-Trump “alt-right,” of which Bannon was the executive chairman, before joining the Trump Administration. One of the main stake- holders in Breitbart News is Mercer.

  • Omnibus June 2019 Dem Primary
    Democratic Dividing Lines Verified Voter Omnibus Survey N=484 Democrats or Democratic leaners June 22 - June 25, 2019 !X!1 Key Findings • Biden’s lead among 24 announced Democratic candidates has narrowed by 6-points since May to 32% of the Democratic vote. • Biden’s 6-point drop came with a concurrent 6-point gain by Elizabeth Warren to 11% of the Democratic vote, or 4- points behind Bernie Sanders who takes 15% of the Democratic vote. • Biden continues to lead both Sanders and Warren in head to head match-ups, but his lead has narrowed to 30-points from both Sanders and Warren, down from 36-points ahead of Sanders and 47-points ahead of Warren in May. • 73% of Democrats plan to watch the debates, or coverage of the debates. Ahead of the kickoff of tonight’s debates, we tested Democratic concern about two recent pieces of news about Biden — his flip flopping on the Hyde Amendment’s impact on access to abortion, and past associations with segregationists. • We found the Hyde Amendment resonates more strongly with Democratic voters, with 39% of Democrats concerned about Biden’s stance on the Hyde Amendment, and 22% concerned about his associations with segregationists. • Particularly concerned are women, African Americans, younger voters, and more educated voters. !2 Methodology • Using a voter file-matched online panel, we surveyed n=1,006 registered voters across the country from June 22 to June 25, 2019, with a sample of 484 Democrats or Democratic-leaning Independents. • With our third monthly tracking survey of 2019, we were able to confirm the voting history of participants and track changes in the attitudes and behaviors of key 2020 voters since our last survey of verified Democratic or Democratic-leaning Independent voters from May 20 to May 21, 2019.
