BREAKING NEWS: Mitch McConnell to star in remake of The Brave Little Toaster



Reported in Mitch McConnell Sees ‘High Level of Satisfaction’ With Trump Administration.  (The New York Times, 2/8/2017)
Although there is plenty of anxiety in Washington about the shaky early performance of the Trump administration, don’t count Senator Mitch McConnell among the hand wringers;

How about his performance in the short subject, "You're toast, Elizabeth Warren!"  (sense 5 of noun)


#ShePersisted

At what point in 2016 did Milwaukee Co. Sheriff David Clarke use up his vacation time


And start taking leave without pay.

(emphasis added}

Clarke was appointed in March 2002 by Gov. Scott McCallum and then elected to his first full term in office that fall.


34 different groups?

I don't have a list of who these group are and where Clarke spoke, but, for the sake of his exercise, let's say that each invitation involves 1 day away from work.

34 days gives Clarke nearly 7 weeks away from his regular duties as sheriff.  Big chunka time.   

I don't find any langauge in the handbook related to outside income.
