Some of the ads feature doctors speaking passionately about abortion and saying that Republican candidates shouldn't represent "us" or "our" communities in Congress. But in at least four instances, House Majority PAC, a super PAC aligned with House Democratic leadership, featured Republican-blasting doctors in their ads who did not live in the district where they were advertising. The path to the House majority runs through all four of the districts where these ads ran. Since then, both doctors and patients have often become key personal messengers on abortion for Democrats. But Republicans blasted House Majority PAC over the ads, calling them misleading and accusing the group of spreading falsehoods about GOP incumbents and candidates.

One of the field’s top fund-raisers, Krystle Kaul, faces charges of embellishing her résumé well beyond the usual flourishes of a political campaign. Ms. Filler-Corn was the first woman and first Jewish speaker of the Virginia State House. Mr. Helmer is a Rhodes scholar and an Army veteran who served in Afghanistan, Iraq, and as a member of the Virginia House. Then last week, an anonymous Democratic official, speaking through her lawyer, accused Mr. Helmer of groping her and later making sexually crude remarks. “That would be presumptuous.”Democratic voters in the district peppered by texts attacking Mr. Helmer could be forgiven if they do not know where to turn.

Read previewFormer President Donald Trump's historic conviction on Thursday may have been in part due to mistakes made by his defense team, including not having him take the stand, legal experts told Business Insider.

☆ Trump's sentencing is set for July, but he won't face consequences anytime soon, legal expert says

The judge scheduled Trump's sentencing hearing for July 11. But it could take months, maybe over a year, until Trump faces any consequences, legal expert says. Delays, delays, delays. The judge, New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan, set Trump's sentencing hearing for July 11 at 11 a.m. With an appeal, which can come after Trump's sentencing, Reinert said it's almost certain that any sentence will be stayed pending the appeal, meaning Trump won't have to face the consequences until the appeal is resolved.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A third Democratic candidate has announced that she's running for a western Wisconsin congressional seat held by freshman Republican Rep. Derrick Van Orden in one of the presidential battleground state's swing districts. Johnson, 61, said she was running to fight for working families, rural communities, abortion rights, affordable health care and prescription drugs, and protecting Social Security and Medicare. A former Navy SEAL, Van Orden was outside of the Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection, before he was elected to Congress.

☆ 16 Crucial Words That Went Missing From a Landmark Civil Rights Law
▼ + stars: | 2023-05-15 | by ( Adam Liptak | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

“Wait, what?” Judge Willett wrote, incredulous. In 1871, after the Civil War, Congress enacted a law that allowed suits against state officials for violations of constitutional rights. But the Supreme Court has said that the law, usually called Section 1983, did not displace immunities protecting officials that existed when the law was enacted. The doctrine of qualified immunity is based on that premise. But the premise is wrong, Alexander A. Reinert, a professor at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, wrote in the article, “Qualified Immunity’s Flawed Foundation,” published in The California Law Review.

The arena also has twice as many suites as Atlanta’s State Farm Arena, which would have hosted the convention there. Crime and local politicsIt’s pretty clear how Republicans will portray Mr. Biden’s convention city. Democrats answered that pandemic-era spikes in crime were easing, in Chicago and across the country. “The truth is that things have gotten better and better,” Mr. Pritzker said. “It’s a recovery across the nation in major cities that includes a recovery on the issue of crime.

☆ Democrats choose Chicago, a target of years of GOP attacks about crime, for 2024 convention

With Chicago, Democrats chose a 2024 convention site that signals the significance of the Midwest. But the city has also been at the center of Democrats' weakest spot with voters: crime. Crime was a defining issue of the city's latest mayoral election that upended the city's Democratic leadership. And Republicans have long hammered the city's crime rates to put Democrats on the defensive. "Chicago is a vibrant, metropolitan city with neighborhoods that reflect the diversity of America," said Natalie Edelstein, a spokesperson for the city's convention bid.

☆ Republicans are reveling in House Democrats' frustrations with Biden after he withholds veto yet again
▼ + stars: | 2023-03-30 | by ( Nicole Gaudiano | Warren Rojas | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +3 min

House Democrats are annoyed with President Joe Biden and Republicans can't get enough of it. In the last month, Biden has twice withheld vetoes on GOP-led bills that most House Democrats opposed – and after the White House signaled that Biden opposed them, too. However, before a Senate vote Wednesday night, the White House put out the word that Biden wouldn't veto the bill. House Republicans' campaign arm on Wednesday is seizing on the schism, including a popcorn emoji in an email highlighting such quotes from House Democrats. "House Democrats remain rip-roaring angry at the White House for once again exposing their extremism to voters," said Will Reinert, of the National Republican Congressional Committee.

Restaurant bakers are adding in sesame flour since it makes it easier to avoid cross-contamination. Allergy-friendly foods like breadsticks at Olive Garden are now off-limits to allergic consumers. The changes have affected buns at Wendy's and Chick-fil-A and breadsticks at Olive Garden. Olive Garden now lists sesame as an ingredient in its bread sticks. Families locked out of their "allergen safe havens" say they have no recourse but to stop patronizing these chains.
