Mississippi poverty and Favre scandal critique
LZ Granderson argues that Mississippi’s poverty and a welfare funds case involving Brett Favre expose a deeper ethical crisis. He links Cruger and Drew to broader state hardship, contrasts Payton’s legacy with Favre’s actions, and calls for accountability beyond mere scandal framing.

Bipartisan push to fix presidential electors rules after Jan. 6
The House and Senate advance bills to clarify the vice president role in certifying electors and increase the number of objections needed to force debates. The measures aim to close loopholes allowing state legislatures to substitute judgments and to define catastrophic events that justify extending an election. They seek bipartisan support to pass in lame duck, with differences in thresholds and transition provisions. Carl P. Leubsdorf notes the Senate bill gains broad backing while House Republicans largely oppose.
