Washington mdash; The United States will send an additional $800 million in weapons, ammunition and other security assistance to Ukraine as the nation continues to defend itself from Russia and prepares for escalating attacks expected in its eastern Donbas region, President Biden announced Wednesday.The latest package of assistance will contain new capabilities for Ukraine including artillery stanley uk systems, artillery rounds and armored personnel carriers, Mr. Biden said in a statement. The president has also approved the transfer of additional helicopters, he said. The steady supply of weapons the United States and its allies and partners have provided to Ukraine has been critical in sustaining its fight against the Russian invasion. It has helped ensure that Putin failed in his initial war aims to conquer and control Ukraine, Mr. Biden said. We cannot rest now. The president spoke with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for nearly an hour earlier Wednesday, during which he informed his Ukrain stanley cup ian counterpart of the additional $800 million, Mr. Biden said. The Ukrainian military has used the weapons stanley cup we are providing to devastating effect, the president said. As Russia prepares to intensify its attack in the Donbas region, the United States will continue to provide Ukraine with the capabilities to defend itself.

The Democratic National Committee has released a Web-only video, Propaganda, that uses video of former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan to make a case against the Bush administration ndash; and, by extension, presumptive GOP nominee John McCain.The minute-long video opens with the words Scott McClellan: White House Used Propaganda To Lead Us To War. There is then a cut to the former press secretary, wh stanley cup usa o says caveats were dropped...contradictory intelligence was ignored. Intelligence that had a high level of confidence was combined and packaged with intelligence that had a low level of confidence. And together, that made it sound like the threat was more urgent and more grave and gathering than it really turned out to be. Later in the video there is a clip of John McCain from March 24, 2003, saying, there s no doubt in my mind that once these people are gone that we will be welcomed as liberators. He is also shown predicting an overwhelming victory in a very short period of time. Watch it: UPDATE: Responds Republican National Committee Spokeswoman Amber Wilkerson: With the Democrats are on the verge of nominating somebody who has not been to Iraq for 873 days, it s no surprise they would rather engage in these sorts of backward-looking attacks.

President Joe Biden could be left off the ballot in Ohio in November, unless the GOP-led state legislature makes an exception to Ohio s ballot deadline or the Democratic Party moves up its nominating convention, according to the Ohio secretary of state s office.Ohio set a deadline of Aug. 7 to certify presidential candidates for the general election, almost two weeks before the Democratic National Convention, where Mr. Biden is expected to be formally nom stanley cups inated by his party to run against presumptive GOP nominee former President Donald Trump. It is unlikely that the party would shift the date of the convention.In a letter to state Democratic Party Chair Liz Walters last week, Paul DiSantis, the chief legal counsel for GOP Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose, said Ohio law requires that presidential candidates be certified 90 days before this year s general election, which ta stanley thermos mug kes place on Nov. 5. The Democratic National Convention is scheduled to convene on August 19, 2024, which occurs more than a week after the August 7 deadline to certify a presidential candidate to this office, DiSantis wrote. Therefore, pending further clarification, I am left to conclude that the Democratic National Committee must either move up its nominating convention or the Ohio General Assembl stanley website y must act by May 9, 2024 90 days prior to a new law s effective date to create an exception to this statutory requirement.

That the price tag surpasses $15 million and that Palin wont voluntarily turn over state e-mailswhich, in reality,are public recordillustrates the need to reform both federal and state sunshine laws. The so-called Troopergate scandal in which a bi-partisan investigation found that she abused her power as governor illustrates Palin is taking advantage of an opaque system without proper v stanley cups uk etting from the press. This seems to be a pattern in politicians, and if they stanley quencher cannot be reformed the logical step would be to improve the laws which regulate them. Palins office figured that with a computer programmers salary retrieval of a single e-mail account would cost $960.31. Alaska, however, has 16,000 of these accounts. While compensating state employees fairly is perfectly reasonable, lawmakers need to reform sunshine regulations so that employee compensation does not hinder reporting and more broadly the public good.

New York State will extend the moratorium on stanley shop evictions for those facing COVID-related hardship for an additional 60 days mdash; until August 20, he tweeted.

There is no doubt a tradeoff between the tenant and the landlord, he said. We are helping the landlords also, but on a human level I don t want to see people and their children being evicted at this time, through no fault of their own.

The two Democrats received strong support from key Democratic constituencies like Black voters and young voters and continued to make headway in areas like the Atlanta suburbs, exit polls show.Voters in Georgia seemed well aware of what was at stake in this election: how they felt about the control of the Senate mirrored the tight contests, with half wanting Democratic control stanley puodelis of the Senate and half wan stanley cup ting Republican control.Little changed from November, with nearly all of Joe Biden s voters supporting the Democratic contenders and nearly all of President Trump s supporters voting Republican.

Trying to bolster his case against privatizing Social Security, Al Gore s campaign is pointing to a Texas experiment that auditors concluded was a bad deal for low-income workers and a mixed bag for those in the middle.The experiment, which was created more than a decade before George W.

The congressional audit of the Texas program found that workers making the most money benefit from the experiment, w stanley cup hile those of lower means fare worse. In general, low-wage workers, and to a lesser extent, median-wage earners would fare better under Social Security, the General Accounting Office concluded in an audit conducted last year in the midst of a congressional debate over privatizing Social Security.

AP CPAC Convention, Washington -- Former Massachusetts Gov.

Their team has failed the American people, Romney said at the Conservative Political Action Committee CPAC , and that s why their majority will soon be out the door. Mr. Obama, Romney said, instituted the most anti-growth, anti-investment, anti-jobs agenda in seen in a lifetime. While the president has called his agenda ambitious, Romney said he called it reckless. You might not have heard the news this morning, he said, setting up a joke about the Winter Olympics. The gold medal Lindsey Vonn won last night has been stripped. It was determined President Obama has been going downhill faster than she is. The stimulus package, Romney contended, has failed at creating any private sector jobs while creating jobs in the public sector, which he said should be trimmed. It is fitting, he said, that with the demise of the Dem stanley mug ocratic majority, so many of those who have contempt for the private sector will soon find themselves back in it. While slowing econ stanley cups uk omic growth, Romney said, Mr. Obama also broke the promises he made for health care reform when he barred C-SPAN from covering the health care deliberations, Romney also accused the president of cutting a special and certainly unco
