Newsweek apologizes for Kamala Harris op-ed By Tal Axelrod TheHill August 15, 2020 Newsweek has apologized after an op-ed it published about Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), the presumptive Democratic vice presidential nominee, drew an avalanche of criticism that it perpetuated a racist conspiracy theory about her eligibility to be vice president. The magazine added an editor’s note late Friday to a piece authored by Chapman University law professor John Eastman in which he suggested Harris, who was born in Oakland, was not a natural-born citizen because her parents were immigrants. “Before we so cavalierly accept Senator Harris’ eligibility…

The Hollywood Reporter August 13, 2020 Conservative crusader Larry Klayman is suing various entities — from CNN to Sacha Baron Cohen — on behalf of clients like Joe Arpaio and Roy Moore who say they’ve been harmed by the irresponsibility of the press. Larry Klayman has been called a right-wing activist by Wikipedia, a conspiracy theorist by Politico and a pathologically litigious attorney and professional gadfly by the Southern Poverty Law Center. They’re meant as pejoratives, but the former U.S. Department of Justice prosecutor has no problem with the descriptors. The 67-year-old attorney has filed countless lawsuits against politicians…
Law and Crime August 13, 2020 Conservative attorney Larry Klayman filed a lawsuit on Tuesday accusing “rabidly anti-Trump” CNN of defaming him in order to defame his client Dr. Judy Mikovits by association—and to “protect” Dr. Anthony Fauci.

Klayman is representing himself in the action filed in the Circuit Court for the Seventeenth Judicial…

They worked remotely, learned remotely and put social events on hold to hunker down alongside much of the country. It was challenging and frustrating, but, Rice initially assumed, temporary. It seemed like a plausible plan to help the nation get the pandemic under control within a couple of months. But Arizona’s economic reopening in May, urged by Gov. Doug Ducey (R), was soon followed by a spike in coronavirus infections in June, which became a terrible…
