Witnesses, including Rudy Giuliani are set to testify before the Board on Professional Responsibility that is looking into whether Giuliani violated attorney ethics rules while aiding former President Donald Trump’s legal efforts to undermine the 2020 election, CNN reports.

"Giuliani is one of several attorneys who have been targeted in professional sanctions proceedings. His law license was already suspended in New York by the state bar there, which said that the former Manhattan US attorney 'communicated demonstrably false and misleading statements to courts, lawmakers and the public at large' in his work for the Trump campaign," CNN's report states. "Now the DC Bar’s disciplinary counsel has brought ethics charges against Giuliani that are focused on a November 2020 lawsuit seeking to throw out hundreds of thousands of votes in Pennsylvania."

On Monday, Axios reported that federal investigators are looking into an allegation that Atlanta Public Schools are assigning Black kids to classrooms based on their race.

"According to a letter sent Nov. 14 to APS and shared with Axios, the complainant alleges that during the 2019-20 and 2020-21 school years, a principal assigned Black children to second and third-grade classes by race," reported Kristal Dixon. "The AJC reports that a parent, who is Black, made the complaint against Mary Lin Elementary School in Candler Park. The complaint alleges that about 13 Black students were put into two classes, while white students were placed in any of the six second-grade classes, according to the AJC."

For many years after 9/11, pundits in right-wing media scoffed at the idea of white supremacists, white nationalists, neo-Nazis, Christian nationalists and far-right militia groups posing a major terrorist threat in the United States. Law enforcement’s anti-terrorist resources, they argued, should be focused solely on fighting radical Islamists.

Liberals and progressives would respond that the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) has a long history of domestic terrorism, including attacking African-American churches (such as the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in Birmingham, Alabama in 1963). In the 1980s, according to federal prosecutors, neo-Nazis planned to dump 200 pounds of pure cyanide into the municipal water supplies of New York City, Chicago and Washington, D.C. in addition to blowing up natural gas pipelines in states ranging from Texas to Illinois. Prosecutors estimated that if the attack on the water supplies in those cities had been successful, at least 400,000 people would have been killed.
