The New Mexico governor who was accused of grabbing her male ex-staffer's crotch has defended her decision to settle the case for $62,500 by saying that the pandemic had demanded her attention. In her first in-person comments concerning the settlement on Friday, Michelle Lujan Grisham said: 'I was focused on the pandemic, and I'll stand by that decision every minute of every day.'(Snip) Hallinan first accused the Democratic governor in late 2019 of pouring a bottle of water on his crotch while laughing and then grabbing his crotch through his clothes in front of other campaign staffers. The alleged incident took place

If Grisham was employed by a private company, her employment would have been immediately suspended after the Hallinan's complaint was filed pending an investigation of the incident. Then Grisham would have been terminated for cause.

Judge rules in favor of Houston hospital
requiring employees to be vaccinated

A lawsuit opposing the Houston Methodist Hospital network’s mandate that employees must get the COVID-19 vaccine has been shot down at the federal level. A U.S. District judge on Saturday tossed the lawsuit from employees of the Texas hospital system who argue they shouldn’t be required to get vaccinated. The dismissal comes after 178 staffers who declined to get the vaccine were suspended by Houston Methodist, which had instituted a June 7 deadline for employees to receive the shots. A claim made by the lawsuit’s lead plaintiff, Jennifer Bridges, describing the vaccines as “experimental and dangerous” was refuted by the judge.

A federal judge has halted Joe Biden's 'unconstitutional' $4 billion program to pay up to 120 percent of black, Hispanic, Asian or Native American farmers' debt, after 12 white farmers sued claiming it discriminated against them. Wisconsin Judge William Griesbach issued a temporary restraining order Thursday blocking the loan forgiveness program Biden put in place after saying he wanted to tackle longstanding inequalities for farmers of color. Judge Griesbach said the plan failed to provide adequate examples of recent hardships imposed on farmers from minority backgrounds. He also claimed that in trying to end one type of discrimination, the program ended up creating another.

New York took a step closer toward reparations for slavery on Wednesday.

It would have the commission determine the amount of reparations and who should get them. “Some people say, ‘well I didn’t oppress you, my European ancestors came at the turn of the century. Why should I have to pay?’ I don’t care if you came here last night,” Barron said. “You benefited from the ill-gotten gains.”(Snip) Five political appointees would be on the commission
