Back-to-back hurricanes reshape 2024 campaign’s final stretch
And just weeks before the Nov. 5 election, the storms have disrupted the mechanics of voting in several key counties. Vice President Harris is trying to use this as an opportunity to project leadership, appearing alongside President Joe Biden at briefings and calling for bipartisan cooperation. Former President Trump is trying to use the moment to attack the administration's competence and question whether it is withholding help from Republican areas, despite no evidence of such behavior. “Vice President Harris must empathize with the victims without altering the campaign schedule and provide consistent messaging on the widespread devastation that makes FEMA’s work even more challenging than normal,” Kneeland added. “They’ve let those people suffer unjustly,” he said about those affected by Helene in North Carolina.

New Orleans archdiocese bankruptcy parties wary of turnaround expert after WSJ investigation
Clergy abuse survivors and other parties ensnared in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New Orleans’ expensive and lengthy bankruptcy reorganization are concerned after a nationally recognized business-turnaround expert brought on to assist with resolving the unusually contentious proceeding had some of his actions questioned in an unrelated case. Judge Meredith Grabill’s chosen expert, Mohsin “Mo” Meghji, was recently the subject of a Wall Street Journal investigation that examined ethical concerns over some of his maneuvering in a pharmaceutical company’s high-stakes bankruptcy reorganization. It is not clear if Grabill at all solicited Jones’s input before appointing Meghji to the New Orleans archdiocese’s bankruptcy on 21 August. Eagan also described doing things to purposely impede negotiations aimed at striking a settlement with clergy abuse survivors and other creditors. Grabill responded to those remarks with a rebuke, sarcastically calling it “rich” that the church was suddenly concerned with the cost of the bankruptcy.
