Real Milwaukee Love Stories: Chauntel + Steven Forbes
As fate would have it, not long after my time at the museum, I accepted a contract with the African American Leadership Alliance of Milwaukee, where Steven worked as the operations coordinator. We did everything together: dinners, museum visits, lunch breaks, and long phone calls sharing life stories and bad dating experiences. It was a testament to endurance, grace and what it truly means to stand beside the person you love through every season. Afterward, we went to a cozy Italian restaurant in Madison, where my daughter and Chauntel did most of the talking. Watching how comfortable my daughter was with Chauntel was the moment I knew she was the one.

Breaking down the evidence DOJ used to justify searching a Fulton County elections office
Similarly, dozens of lawsuits from Trump’s campaign and allies failed after the 2020 election – nearly all of them, in fact. State officials in 2024 acknowledged a little more than 3,000 duplicate ballot images. But duplicate ballot images are not the same as counted votes, and officials couldn’t determine that any of them were actually tabulated in the recount. A local official cited human error for the duplicate ballot images. The statute of limitations is generally five years, and the 2020 election is now just outside that window.

Grand jury declines to indict Democratic lawmakers who urged service members to disobey illegal Trump orders
A federal grand jury on Tuesday declined to indict Democratic lawmakers who posted a video urging service members and intelligence officials to disobey any illegal orders from the Trump administration, according to two people familiar with the matter. And while the indictment was rejected by the grand jury, it is also an extraordinary escalation of the Justice Department’s willingness to prosecute who speak about against President Donald Trump and his administration’s actions. As CNN previously reported, a grand jury previously declined to bring an indictment against Letitia James, the New York attorney general who defeated Trump and his company in court. “Today an American grand jury honored our Constitution by standing up to an outrageous abuse of presidential power and taxpayer dollars. And Houlahan similarly celebrated the grand jury, saying on X, “This is good news for the Constitution and the free speech protections it guarantees.

Analysis: Lutnick’s grilling shows Trump a glimpse of a grim possible future
No wonder President Donald Trump is so worried about the midterm elections. He was so obviously uncomfortable, the White House had to offer him a vote of confidence amid calls for Lutnick’s resignation. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt’s frustration was evident in her reaction to the new attention on the commerce secretary. “Secretary Lutnick remains a very important member of President Trump’s team and the president fully supports the secretary,” she told reporters. President Donald Trump gaggles with reporters while aboard Air Force One on February 6, en route to Palm Beach, Florida.

Super Bowl ads hint at high-dollar CA ballot battle next fall
Two ads among the many aired during Sunday’s Super Bowl broadcast didn’t sell beer, cars, fast food or cell phone services; rather they were opening salvos of what could be one of the year’s most expensive ballot measure duels. Attorney General Rob Bonta’s office gave the measures formal titles to appear on the ballot. Not surprisingly, they have a distinctly political tone — negative on the Uber measure and positive on the lawyer-sponsored measures. The Uber measure title says it would limit the ability of accident victims to sue for damages. These problems need legislative correction, not competing ballot measures that will hinge on misleading campaign propaganda and further distort California’s flawed initiative system.
