'Fed up with being exploited,' Unionized Cornell workers strike as students arrive

More than 1,000 unionized campus workers at Cornell University—from maintenance and dining room employees to gardeners and custodians—went on strike late Sunday to protest management's refusal to negotiate in good faith and put forth a fair pay and benefits package.

The strike by Cornell employees, who are represented by United Auto Workers (UAW) Local 2300, coincided with the Ivy League university's student move-in day. The union local has filed seven separate unfair labor practice charges against Cornell with the National Labor Relations Board, accusing the university of retaliating against workers for engaging in protected union activity and interfering with organizing efforts.

GOP kicks off DNC with ‘recycled talking points’ report

Top House Republicans kicked off the week of the Democratic National Convention by releasing a 291-page report that includes disputed claims alleging President Joe Biden committed impeachable offenses. President Biden will deliver a speech at the DNC in Chicago Monday evening. Republicans, who have spent well over a year and a half on their investigations have never been able to garner enough votes to impeach the President despite holding the majority. The report does not specifically recommend the House hold a vote on impeaching President Biden.

"The allegations rely heavily on bits of testimony that are disputed or undercut elsewhere," reports the right-leaning news outlet The Hill. "The report does not show President Biden directly received money from his family’s business deals or prove he changed any U.S. policies to aid his family."

'Trump looks like an idiot': Expert predicts Harris will expose GOP nominee as a 'joke'

Donald Trump keeps shrinking and no longer presents himself as the "scary guy" he projected in his first campaign, according to MSNBC's Chris Matthews.

The former president seems to be fixated on a recent Time magazine cover featuring an illustration of Kamala Harris, saying last week that the image reminded him of his own wife Melania and then insisting at a rally Sunday that he's "better looking" than the vice president, and Matthews told "Morning Joe" that communicated his insecurity and inherent weakness.

'More than interesting': Ex-prosecutor flags judge's 'Easter egg' about Trump's sentencing

There is one last "hurdle" between prosecutors of Donald Trump and his upcoming sentencing next month, and the judge may have given us a clue about how that roadblock will be resolved, a former prosecutor said Sunday.

Former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner said the only thing potentially blocking the sentencing of Trump, who was convicted on 34 felony counts in connection with a scheme to influence the 2016 election by disguising "hush money" payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels, is a motion to dismiss Trump filed based on the Supreme Court's recent presidential immunity decision.

'Any other Republican candidate would be winning': GOP's Sununu unloads on Trump stumbles

Appearing on CNN "State of the Union" with host Jake Tapper, Gov. Chris Sununu (R-NH) did not express confidence that Donald Trump will prevail in November in his bid for a second presidential term.

The New Hampshire Republican, once the leading backer of Gov. Nikki Haley's bid for the GOP nomination until she dropped out, after which he switched sides, sat and watched as Tapper ran a clip of the former South Carolina governor attacking Trump for turning his campaign against Vice President Kamala Harris into a firehose of personal attacks including questioning whether she is "Black."

Following Haley stating, "I want this campaign to win. But the campaign is not going to win talking about crowd sizes. It’s not going to win talking about what race Kamala Harris is. It’s not going to win talking about whether she is dumb,” CNN's Tapper asked, "Who is right here? Haley or Trump?"

"Well it isn't Donald Trump in this case," Sununu shot back. "Look, as Nicki wouldn't point out because she was the alternative, almost any other Republican candidate would be winning this race by ten points. And so the message is very clear: if you stick to the issues, if you stick to what matters, this should be an easy race for Donald Trump — it really should."

Asked later by the CNN host about Trump's highly controversial comments about war heroes who received the Congressional Medal of Hour that led to the Veterans of Foreign Wars slamming the former president for making "asinine" remarks, Sununu agreed.

"They were asinine, there's no doubt about that again," He stated. "I don't think they're the first asinine comments, former president Trump has ever made."
