Wisconsin's top Republican sues to block Jan. 6 subpoena

MADISON, Wis. — (AP) — Wisconsin's Republican Assembly leader is suing to block a subpoena that orders him to testify before the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection about a conversation he had with Donald Trump about overturning the 2020 election. Vos, who had a falling out with Trump this summer, also alleged that the short notice of the subpoena placed an undue burden on him. Rep. Bennie Thompson, committee chair, issued the subpoena Friday ordering Vos to appear on Monday morning either in person or via videoconference. After Vos took no action to overturn the election, Trump endorsed his primary challenger. Gableman’s inquiry turned up no evidence of widespread fraud, but the investigator joined Trump in calling for lawmakers to consider decertifying the 2020 election.

Wisconsin’s Republican Assembly leader is suing to block a subpoena that orders him to testify before the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection about a conversation he had with Donald Trump about overturning the 2020 election. Assembly Speaker Robin Vos filed the lawsuit on Sunday in federal court in Wisconsin arguing that the subpoena falls outside the scope of the committee’s investigation into last year's Capitol attack and infringes on his legislative immunity from civil process. Vos, who had a falling out with Trump this summer, also alleged that the short notice of the subpoena placed an undue burden on him.

Kenya's Supreme Court to rule on election challenge

NAIROBI, Kenya — (AP) — Kenya’s Supreme Court on Monday will rule on challenges to the presidential election in which Deputy President William Ruto was declared the winner by a slim margin. Opposition candidate Raila Odinga has alleged irregularities in the otherwise peaceful Aug. 9 election that was marked by last-minute drama when the electoral commission split and traded accusations of misconduct. The court says its judgment will be delivered at noon. The court in the previous election in 2017 overturned the results of the presidential election and ordered a fresh vote after Odinga filed a challenge. This time, Odinga was backed by former rival and outgoing President Uhuru Kenyatta in the latest example of shifting political alliances in East Africa’s most stable democracy.

Wisconsin GOP leader fires 2020 election investigator

Election 2020 Audits Wisconsin FILE- Former Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman leaves the stand after testifying, Thursday, June 23, 2022, at the Dane County Courthouse in Madison, Wis. The Wisconsin Assembly Republican leader who hired Gableman to investigate the 2020 election fired him Friday, Aug. 2022, just three days after the lawmaker beat a primary opponent the investigator and Donald Trump endorsed. One major fissure between Vos and Gableman came when Gableman said in a report that lawmakers should consider decertifying the 2020 election, as Trump wants. Vos hired Gableman to quell pressure he was feeling from those who believed Trump's false claims about the 2020 election. He gave the prayer at Trump's Wisconsin rally this month.

The Wisconsin Assembly Republican leader who hired Gableman to investigate the 2020 election fired him Friday, Aug. 2022, just three days after the lawmaker beat a primary opponent the investigator and Donald Trump endorsed. The firing of Gableman caps a 14-month ride that saw him hired by Assembly Speaker Robin Vos to look into the election under pressure from Trump. Vos had rejected Gableman's determination that lawmakers should consider decertifying the 2020 election, as Trump wants. Gableman, who has repeatedly falsely claimed that the 2020 election was “stolen” from Trump, has said that Vos “never wanted a real investigation.”Trump lost Wisconsin by nearly 21,000 votes in 2020 and Vos has urged Republicans to move on.

Op-ed: Taking Black executives to the next level and beyond

The 2020 presidential election was a tight contest that painted a vivid picture highlighting our country's division along racial lines. One would be ignorant to believe that these sentiments do not bleed over into corporate America and the business world at large. It was invigorating to hear both the president-elect and vice president-elect acknowledge the power of the voice of Black voters. In this post-election atmosphere, where Black Americans are left contemplating how we move forward, we must continue to press on toward fostering Black excellence in corporate America by building the talent pipeline of the current and next generation of Black leaders. They too need to remain focused on developing and retaining high potential Black talent, promoting deserving role models so that everyone knows what is possible.

After confirming Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., announced that the Senate would be recessed until Nov 9.
