Ten candidates who made history Tuesday night

Wes MoreTuesday’s midterm results saw several historic firsts across the country.

A record number of Black candidates ran up and down the ballot and across party lines, strides in LGBTQ representation were made and gender barriers were broken.

Here are 10 candidates that broke glass ceilings in their races this year.

Army veteran and best-selling author Wes Moore (D) [above] was elected Maryland’s first Black governor and becomes only the third Black person to be elected governor of a state. He defeated Trump-backed conservative Dan Cox.

Moore rose to the top of his party’s primary in July, when he beat out 10 other candidates. His campaign had the support of celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, and the Democratic Governors Association had invested heavily in his campaign.

The former CEO of one of the nation’s largest anti-poverty organizations, Moore’s win flips the governor’s mansion blue.

Donald Trump Lawyer Alina Habba Warns Ron DeSantis Not To Run Against Him

Alina Habba

An attorney for Donald Trump appeared to warn Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis against opposing the former president in the 2024 presidential election. (Watch the video below.)

“DeSantis is DeSantis because of Trump,” Alina Habba said on the Right Side Broadcasting Network during a Trump rally in Vandalia, Ohio, Monday. “I like what DeSantis is doing in Florida, but he needs to stay in Florida.”

Interviewer Christina Bobb, also a lawyer for Trump, chimed in “100%.”

“Just stay where you are. You’re doing a great job in Florida,” Habba continued.

Both agreed that DeSantis would fare better in 2028. “Don’t jump the gun,” Bobb advised.

“He’s not ready yet,” Habba added.

Florida Medical Board Votes To Ban Gender-Affirming Care For Trans Kids

Florida Board of Medicine Transgender children in Florida will be barred from receiving hormones or undergoing surgeries to treat gender dysphoria under a rule approved Friday by state medical officials at the urging of Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis.

The Florida Board of Medicine and the state Board of Osteopathic Medicine voted at a joint meeting in Lake Buena Vista to finalize rules governing gender affirming health care for minors. The rule is set to take effect after a weekslong public input period.

Many doctors, mental health specialists and medical groups have argued that treatments for transgender youth are safe and beneficial, though rigorous long-term research is lacking. Federal health officials have described the gender-affirming care as crucial to the health and well-being of transgender children and adolescents.

TVNL Comment:  How cruel and inhumane this is.  DeSantis will run for president on 2024.  That, too, would be cruel and inhumane for the nation.

New York's Rochester diocese agrees to pay $55 million settlement to hundreds sexually abused by priests

Bishop Matano

Hundreds of people who say they were sexually abused by Rochester-area priests in New York have agreed to a $55-million financial settlement with the Diocese of Rochester.

“This was a long and difficult fight, but the terms of this new proposal are a validation of the hundreds of child abuse claims that this Diocese and its parishes are facing," said attorney James Marsh.

The settlement still needs to be approved by the bankruptcy court and voted on by the approximately 475 survivors in the case. That process is expected to take about six months.

No nuclear weapons over Ukraine, Chinese President Xi Jinping says, in clear message to Russia

Leaders of Germany and China say no nukes
Nuclear weapons must not be used over Ukraine, Chinese President Xi Jinping said on Friday, offering Beijing's clearest response yet to Russia's invasion of the former Soviet state, amid mounting concerns that the war might go nuclear.

"The international community should ... jointly oppose the use or threats to use nuclear weapons, advocate that nuclear weapons must not be used and nuclear wars must not be fought, in order to prevent a nuclear crisis in Eurasia," Xi said during a meeting in Beijing with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, according to Chinese state news agency Xinhua.

Xinhua's readout of the meeting did not target any country for criticism nor mention Russia.

‘A joke that went out of control’: crowdfunding weapons for Ukraine’s war

Crowd funding weaponsBy Christmas, 50 hardly used FV103 Spartan armoured personnel carriers (APCs), until recently the property of the British army, and currently in warehouses in secret locations across the UK, will arrive on the frontline in Ukraine’s war with Russia in time for the toughest winter conditions.

The transfer, the largest of such APCs to Ukraine, is not due to British munificence nor to procurement by the Ukrainian ministry of defence.

It is instead just the latest example of the extraordinary scale and indeed speed of the crowdfunding campaigns that have been powering the Ukrainian military since the early days of the war.

Rev Calvin O Butts III, pastor who fought poverty and racism, dies aged 73

Rev. Calvin O Butts III

The Rev Calvin O Butts III, who fought poverty and racism and skillfully navigated New York’s power structure as pastor of Harlem’s historic Abyssinian Baptist church, died on Friday at age 73, the church announced.

“The Butts family and entire Abyssinian Baptist church membership solicit your prayers for us in our bereavement,” the church said on its website. No cause of death was given.

Butts began serving as a youth minister at Abyssinian in 1972 and was senior pastor there for more than 30 years. He also served as president of the State University of New York at Old Westbury, on Long Island, from 1999 to 2020.

Trump Loses Another Battle To Shield His Tax Returns From House Committee

US Court of AppealsA federal appeals court on Thursday denied former President Donald Trump’s request to reconsider a ruling that his tax returns can be disclosed to a House committee.

Trump may take the fight next to the U.S. Supreme Court. But the appeals court refused a request to automatically withhold the release of records pending such a challenge.

The full U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit upheld an August decision of a three-judge panel that it would not shield the returns from the House Ways and Means Committee. There were no dissents noted in the order Thursday.

Trump promised while campaigning in the 2016 presidential election that he would release his tax returns if he won (presidential candidates typically release their tax returns during the campaign). He never did, however, and after raising several excuses, later said the public “didn’t care” about his taxes.

Reuters: U.S. considers HAWK air defense equipment for Ukraine

Hawk missilesThe United States is considering sending older HAWK air defense equipment from storage to Ukraine to help it defend against Russian drone and cruise missile attacks, two U.S. officials told Reuters.

The HAWK interceptor missiles would be an upgrade to the Stinger missile systems - a smaller, shorter range air defense system - that the United States has already sent to blunt Russia's invasion.

The Biden administration would use the Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA) to transfer the HAWK equipment which is based on Vietnam-era technology, but has been upgraded several times. The PDA allows the United States to transfer defense articles and services from stocks quickly without congressional approval in response to an emergency.
