There is no doubt that the last several
days have been difficult for the News
Group. After listening to the legitimate
concerns of many of you, I have
decided that Ronna McDaniel will
not be an NBC News contributor, Cesar Conde, NBCUniversal News Group President, via CNN.
I want to personally apologize
to our team members who felt
we let them down. While this
was a collective recommendation
by some members of our leadership
team, I approved it and take
full responsibility for it, Cesar Conde, NBCUniversal News Group President, via CNN.

seek out conservative Republican voices
to provide balance in their election coverage,
but it should be conservative Republicans,
not a person who used her position of power
to be an anti-democracy election denier, Mika Brzezinski, MSNBC host, via CNN.

either $175 billion in cash or bonds
for security or whatever is necessary,
very quickly, within the 10 days. , Donald Trump, via statement.
And I thank the Appellate Division
for acting quickly, but Judge Engoron
is a disgrace to this country, and this
should not be allowed to happen, Donald Trump, via statement.

16 Republican AGs Sue Biden Administration , for Pausing Liquid Natural Gas Exports.
The lawsuit was filed on March 21.
The states claim that the Biden administration
does not have the authority to deny
"federal permits for new liquid natural
gas (LNG) exports," 'The Hill' reports. .
The 16 attorneys general also allege
that the pause goes against Congress.
This ban disregards statutory mandates,
flouts the normal regulatory process, upends
the industry, disrupts Plaintiffs’ economies,
and subverts our constitutional structure, Via lawsuit.
These unlawful actions leave Plaintiffs
with no choice but to once more turn
to the courts to enforce the law, Via lawsuit.
The suit goes on to allege that the ban is
motivated by politics and comes "in the midst of an election year, and after a sustained pressure campaign from billionaire conglomerates, celebrities, ‘influencers,’ and banks.".
The timing of the decision, in an election
year, raises the likelihood that political
motivations drove the action, House Oversight Committee Republicans,
in a letter to Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm.
LNG, which is often considered to be
"a bridge between coal and renewables," was first pushed by the Obama administration.

strip the White House of its LNG permit authority
