Hunter Biden, the son of presidential Democratic candidate Joe Biden, admitted in an interview on ABC News Good Morning America that he exercised poor judgment in working on the board of a Ukrainian energy companymdash;but said he did nothing improper in doing so. His role on the board of Burisma spurred President Donald Trump to ask Ukraine s president ina now-infa stanley cups mous July 25 callto investigate the Bidens for corruption and to tell reporters earlier this month that both Ukraine and China should look into the Bidens. The president s Ukraine call led the U.S. House to launch a formal impeachment inquiry against Mr. Trump.Biden told ABC News that he has no regrets about joining the board of Burisma, but what I regret is not taking into account that there would be a Rudy Giuliani and a president of the United States that would be listening to this ridiculous conspiracy idea. The president, whose children stanley vaso have business dealings in other countries, continues to make baseless claims that Hunter Biden s work amounted to corruption, citing the fact that Joe Biden was vice president at the time and working on diplomatic efforts in Ukraine.

Austin, Texasmdash; Texas officials fighting to block widespread mail-in voting during the pandemic claimed victory after the state s highest court ruled Wednesday that a lack of immunity to the coronavirus doesn t qualify someone to cast a ballot by mail.The decision was unanimous by the Texas Supreme Court, which is stocked with nine Republican justices, including one who revealed last week that she had tested positive for COVID-19. Texas generally limits mail balloting only to voters who are over 65 years old or have a disability.Justic stanley vaso e Eva stanley tumbler Guzman wrote the court was unified in the conclusion that fear of contracting a disease is not a physical condition. The Texas Democratic Party blasted the decision, and moved its hopes to a similar challenge playing out in federa stanley cups l court. But not all saw the decision as a total loss: the top elections lawyer in Houston, Harris County attorney Douglas Ray, said he believed the ruling leaves room for each voter to decide themselves whether they qualify, and gives clerks basically no ability to second-guess the reasoning.In Texas, voters do not have to describe their disability when requesting a mail-in ballot. Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who earlier this month lost lower court decisions that would have expanded mail-in ballots to all of the state s 16 million registered voters, has argued that fear of getting the virus alone doesn t qualify as a disability. He applauded t Ahiw Romney to clinch GOP presidential nomination

This is written by Declan McCullagh, CNET News chief political correspondent. AP Photo/Charles Dharapak Barack Obama will be able to keep his beloved BlackBerry, an aide confirmed on Thursday, making him the first U.S. president to use e-mail regularly. White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters that, thanks to a compromise, his boss will be able to keep a security-enhanced BlackBerry and use it for e-mail. That will, Gibbs said, allow Obama stanley cup becher to continue to keep in touch with people and avoid getting stuck in a bubble.

During his first press conference as president this week, Barack Obama seemed irked that most congressional Republ stanley cup becher icans remained opposed to the so-called stimulus legislation. Obama attributed it to philosophical differences, saying: Some of the criticisms really are with the basic idea that government should intervene at all in this moment of crisis. Not really. It s possible to want the government to take quick steps to turn around what has become an unusually sharp and severe recession -- while believing that the current proposal is not the best way to do it. As you might expect, a bill that was supposed to come in at a comparatively svelte $300 billion has ballooned to an impressive girth, thanks to Democrats stuffing it with pet projects of dubious virtue.
