SPRINGFIELD – Hillary Clinton is casting herself as a civil alternative to the insults, bullying, and personal attacks that have consumed the Republican race.
"What we can't let happen is the scapegoating, the flaming, the finger pointing that is going on the Republican side," the former Secretary of State told voters gathered in Springfield, the largest city in Western Massachusetts, on Monday morning. "It really undermines our fabric as a nation. So, I want to do everything I can in this campaign to set us on a different course."
WASHINGTON, D.C. — A Republican senator from the Sooner State may have just kicked the proverbial federal hornet's nest after questioning the legality of new Department of Education Title IX regulations and receiving an answer he claims shows that the new standards equate to "executive overreach."
In early January, Oklahoma Sen. James Lankford penned a letter to the Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights over the the Department's October 2010 and April 2011 'Dear Colleague' letters, memos that purport to interpret existing law related to sexual harassment and violence investigations, to various American universities and colleges that happen to receive some form of federal funding.
