Judges Skeptical Toward Trump Plan to Exclude Many Immigrants From Representation

On

U.S. judges appeared skeptical on Thursday toward President Donald Trump’s recent directive to exclude people who are in the United States illegally from representation when apportioning congressional seats. A three-judge panel in Manhattan sharply questioned a lawyer defending Trump and the Department of Commerce against lawsuits by 38 U.S. states, cities and counties, plus several immigrants rights nonprofits, over the July 21 directive. The plaintiffs said the directive violated a requirement in the U.S. Constitution to count the “whole number of persons in each state,” and could shift seats in the House of Representatives, with California, Texas and New Jersey most likelymore

Trump’s Voting Suggestion Causes Confusion, Facebook Label

On

U.S. President Donald Trump attempted to clarify Thursday comments he made a day earlier urging his supporters to vote twice to ensure their votes are counted, comments that have sown confusion over his intended message and caused Facebook to label his claims as misleading.   In tweets on Thursday, the president asserted that sending in absentee ballots and then going to the polls to check that your ballot arrived and if not to vote in person would serve as a check against a mail-in voting system he has repeatedly predicted, without evidence, will result in corruption, miscounting and unacceptable delays.  Presidentmore

Trump Orders Review of US Aid to ‘Anarchist Jurisdictions’

On

U.S. President Donald Trump has opened a new front in his conflict with Democratic-led cities, ordering top officials to determine whether the national government can cut federal aid to certain municipalities that he describes as “anarchist jurisdictions.” In a memo Wednesday, Trump directed the White House Office of Management and Budget to offer guidance to federal agencies on cutting funding to cities that “defund” their police departments after weeks of urban protests targeting Trump and police abuse of minorities.“My Administration will not allow Federal tax dollars to fund cities that allow themselves to deteriorate into lawless zones,” the president’s memo states.more

Facebook to Halt New Political Ads Week Before US Election

On

Facebook Inc said on Thursday it would stop accepting new political ads in the week before the U.S. presidential election in November, bowing to concern that its loose approach to free speech could once again be exploited to interfere with the vote.   The world’s biggest social network also said it was creating a label for posts by candidates or campaigns that try to claim victory before the election results are official, and widening the criteria for content to be removed as voter suppression.   Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg wrote in a Facebook post announcing the changes that he wasmore

The House Oversight Committee on Wednesday subpoenaed Postmaster General Louis DeJoy for records about the widespread mail delivery delays that have pulled the Postal Service into the political spotlight as it prepares to handle an onslaught of ballots in the November election.

Carolyn Maloney said DeJoy has not sufficiently answered the panel’s requests for more information. “It is clear that a subpoena has become necessary to further the Committee’s investigation and help inform potentialmore

More Charges Brought in College Admissions Bribery Scandal

Another wealthy parent was charged Wednesday with trying to bribe his child’s way into an elite university as a fake athletic recruit, a day after two former college coaches caught up in the nationwide admissions bribery scandal were hit with additional charges. Amin Khoury, 54, of Palm Beach, Florida, and Mashpee, Massachusetts, in May 2014 paid $200,000 to get former Georgetown University tennis coach Gordon Ernst to designate his daughter as a tennis recruit even though her “tennis skills were below that of a typical Georgetown tennis recruit,” the U.S. attorney’s office in Boston said in a statement. Khoury is the 57thmore
