We’re looking back at the strongest, smartest opinion takes of the week from CNN and other outlets. A vain and ambitious cigar-smoking bully who wore riding breeches, a polished helmet and boots and carried ivory-handled revolvers, he led troops on successful lightning strikes through German-held territory near the end of World War II. Musk has repeatedly been criticized for enabling and boosting antisemitic content on the platform.”“Isaacson tries to square these two Musks. During Trump’s first impeachment, Romney became the first senator in US history to vote to remove a president of his own party from office. He has been willing to do what he believes to be right — consequences be damned.”The differences between Romney and Trump were many.

Governor of New Mexico Michelle Lujan Grisham speaks at a Democratic Party of New Mexico campaign rally featuring U.S. President Joe Biden at the Gallegos Community Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico, U.S., November 3, 2022. Her unusual moved pulled New Mexico into a national debate on gun rights and public safety. “I’m going to continue pushing to make sure that all of us are using every resource available to put an end to this public health emergency with the urgency it deserves,” the Democratic governor said in a statement. A federal judge on Wednesday temporarily froze the firearms provisions of Lujan Grisham's initial health order pending further litigation. Keller on Wednesday urged Lujan Grisham to call a special session of the state legislature on gun violence.

REUTERS/Kevin Lamarque/File Photo(Reuters) - Albuquerque’s mayor is urging New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham to call a special state legislative session on gun crime after the governor’s ban on carrying guns in his city threw it into the center of the U.S. gun-rights debate. “Albuquerque families can’t afford political debates that distract us from fighting violent crime,” Keller wrote. Gun violence kills around 500 people a year in New Mexico, which ranks sixth among U.S. states for gun deaths per capita, according to gun violence prevention group Everytown for Gun Safety. Albuquerque is among the 10 most dangerous U.S. cities, based on FBI violent crime data.

"The governor is taking action and starting a conversation about addressing the epidemic of gun violence in our communities. The order has drawn national media attention, with even some Democrats and gun control activists criticizing Lujan Grisham's efforts as unconstitutional.

Governor of New Mexico Michelle Lujan Grisham speaks at a Democratic Party of New Mexico campaign rally featuring U.S. President Joe Biden at the Gallegos Community Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico, U.S., November 3, 2022. Her order outraged gun-rights advocates and drew backlash from fellow Democrats and law enforcement officials who labeled it unconstitutional. "Governor Grisham's tyranny is temporarily in check today," said Dudley Brown, president of a Colorado gun group that sued the governor. In the days after the gun ban, Albuquerque's mayor and Bernalillo County's sheriff both called for a special session of the state's legislature to deal with gun crime. Around 500 people die by guns each year in New Mexico, which ranks sixth among U.S. states for gun deaths per capita, according to gun violence prevention group Everytown for Gun Safety.

Mookie Betts homered and drove in four runs and Max Muncy added a long ball for the Dodgers (87-56), who led 7-2 after three innings. Dodgers rookie right-hander Gavin Stone struggled while replacing Clayton Kershaw in the rotation, giving up seven runs on nine hits over 5 1/3 innings. Padres starter Pedro Avila gave up seven runs on six hits and three walks in 2 2/3 innings. The Padres tied it 7-7 by getting two runs in the fourth and three more in the sixth. Martinez had an RBI single off Josh Hader in the ninth inning for the Dodgers, who managed to load the bases down by three.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Juan Soto hit a tiebreaking three-run homer in the ninth inning, and the San Diego Padres rallied from an early five-run deficit for an 11-8 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Monday night. Manny Machado homered twice for the Padres, who beat their playoff-bound rivals for only the third time in 11 meetings this season. The victory was a rare moment of satisfaction for the underachieving Padres, who eliminated the Dodgers from last year's playoffs before regressing this season. Max Muncy also hit his 35th homer, but Los Angeles’ patchwork pitching staff squandered a 7-2 lead.

The sheriff who oversees Bernalillo County and the police chief in Albuquerque said they won’t enforce the governor's order because it violates constitutional rights. Lujan Grisham defended her order as necessary, and rebuffed any calls for impeachment. Some critics have said it’s concerning that only those who want to curb gun rights have the Democratic governor’s ear. Top law enforcement officials and prosecutors have said they weren’t consulted before Lujan Grisham sprung on them an order that even she admits will be ignored by criminals. The Catholic Church was among the few who joined longtime gun-control advocates on Monday in support of the order.

Bernalillo County Sheriff John Allen said he did not want to endanger his deputies by making them enforce the ban. "This order will not do anything to curb gun violence other than punish law-abiding citizens who have a constitutional right to self defense," Allen said at a press briefing. Lujan Grisham last week declared gun violence a public health emergency after an 11-year-old boy was shot dead in Albuquerque, apparently in an act of road rage. New Mexico State Police has not issued any citations, spokesman Ray Wilson said.

Anderson Cooper's face was priceless as he recognized "The Phantom of the Opera" at a Trump rally. Andrew Lloyd Webber, the musical's creator, once asked Trump to stop playing his music. The song he recognized was the soundtrack from Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Phantom of the Opera." "Is that — I'm sorry, is that 'The Phantom of the Opera' soundtrack playing?" Trump has an affinity for the "Phantom" soundtrack, MSNBC previously reported, citing a book by Trump's former White House press secretary, Stephanie Grisham.

Michelle Lujan Grisham has declared gun violence and drug abuse a public health emergency after a string of recent deadly shootings, some involving children. Lujan Grisham cited the shooting deaths of three children from July through September, as well as a pair of mass shootings in the state. “The time for standard measures has passed,” said Lujan Grisham, a Democrat. The order also prohibits firearms on state property, including state buildings and schools, as well as parks and other places where children gather. The state has one of the highest rates of gun violence and suicide in the nation.

Michelle Lujan Grisham's emergency order suspending the right to carry firearms in public in and around Albuquerque drew an immediate court challenge from a gun-rights group Saturday, as legal scholars and advocates said they expected. The governor, a Democrat, said the 30-day suspension, enacted as an emergency public health measure, would apply in most public places, from city sidewalks to parks. The top Republican in the New Mexico Senate, Greg Baca of Belen, also denounced Lujan Grisham’s order as an infringement on the gun rights of law-abiding citizens. Levinson said she was not aware of any other governor taking a step as restrictive as Lujan Grisham. “I don’t think it will be a political loss for (Lujan Grisham) to be overturned,” Levinson said.

Michelle Lujan Grisham of New Mexico announced a 30-day ban on carrying firearms in public areas or state property in Albuquerque and its county, a move that she said was a necessary response to gun violence in the region but that critics denounced as unconstitutional. The ban was issued on Friday as a declaration of a public health emergency, which Ms. Lujan Grisham said allowed the state to access different resources. The executive order, which covers Bernalillo County, prohibits open and concealed firearms on state property, public schools or public parks, with exceptions only for law enforcement and licensed security guards. Residents with gun permits can still have weapons on private property. Ms. Lujan Grisham, a Democrat, said she was spurred to action after several recent fatal shootings of children, including an 11-year-old boy who was killed outside a minor-league baseball stadium this week in Albuquerque.

On a humid morning in mid-July, John Grisham was lounging under a candy-striped awning at Cove Creek Park, a multimillion-dollar youth baseball complex outside Charlottesville, Virginia. He looked comfortable and sweatless in the heat, wearing a crisp white button-down with the sleeves rolled up, slate-colored chinos, understated sneakers and a wristwatch with a slice of an MLB baseball mounted onto its dial. He was surrounded by 40 or so acres of cow pasture that, in the 1990s, he’d transformed into a ballpark with money earned from his greatest talent: imagining stories and selling them.

When the White House refused it, citing high maintenance costs, Donald Trump purchased the estate. The 20-acre Mar-a-Lago property, meaning "Sea to Lake" in Spanish, is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and Lake Worth. While in office, he referred to the estate as the "Winter White House." Former White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham alleges Trump casually presented some of the documents to guests of the estate.

Former first lady Melania Trump has not been a major presence on the campaign trail. People close to the first lady brought up tell-all books which cast her in an unfavorable light. Per The Times, Melania Trump had a sometimes strained relationship with Ivanka Trump — her stepdaughter — and son-in-law Jared Kushner. And Wolkoff's book, "Melania and Me: The Rise and Fall of My Friendship with the First Lady," also presented Melania Trump unfavorably. While Melania Trump has so far chosen not to join her husband on the campaign trail this year, she is poised to be a more visible presence next year.

Stephanie Grisham said Melania Trump won't be stumping in early-voting states like Casey DeSantis does for her husband and 2024 GOP contender Ron DeSantis. Grisham told The New York Times that Melania Trump won't have the same intensity as Casey DeSantis. "I don't think it's going to be anything like what we've seen with Casey DeSantis," Grisham told the newspaper. Friends, rivals, and colleagues previously told Insider that Casey DeSantis, a former TV journalist, is DeSantis' most effective campaign surrogate and advisor, as she easily engages with conservative crowds in early-voting primary states. Melania Trump has, so far, stayed off the campaign trail.
