War veteran’s campaign unleashes on Dem opponent after top aide’s ‘disgusting’ smear of his military book

War veteran’s campaign unleashes on Dem opponent after top aide’s ‘disgusting’ smear of his military book

FIRST ON FOX: War veteran Sam Brown’s campaign for U.S. Senate in Nevada is pushing back after a staffer of his Democratic opponent’s campaign and a member of the state Democratic Party accused him of a “grift” for selling a book discussing his road to recovery from a nearly fatal war injury in Iraq. “Don’t worry Sam, have a feeling there will be plenty of time for you to promote your latest grift after November 5th,” Johanna Warshaw, communications director for Jacky Rosen for Senate, posted on X last week in response to a post from Brown promoting his new book that he says shares “how I took some of the toughest circumstances in my life, found a mission, & found hope for myself in others” and about his “mission to give hope and change the world.” Brown is a retired Army captain and a Purple Heart recipient who sustained serious injuries from an IED explosion during a 2008 deployment in Afghanistan, which left his face severely burned.  In addition to being labeled a grifter by the Rosen campaign spokesperson, the Nevada Democratic Party also weighed in and accused Brown of a “grift” for selling the book about his road to recovery from injuries in battle. EXCLUSIVE: WAR VETERAN SAM BROWN VOWS TO DELIVER FOR AMERICANS ‘CRUSHED’ BY BIDEN’S POLICIES AFTER MAJOR WIN “New grift just droppeddddd,” Nevada State Democratic Party spokesperson Katharine Kurz posted on X in response to Brown promoting his book. In a statement to Fox News Digital, Brown campaign communications director Kristy Wilkinson said, “Jacky Rosen has shown her true colors.” “The contempt this statement has for US Military Veterans and Wounded Warriors is very revealing. It’s not just an insult to the Browns, it’s an insult to all NV veterans for their sacrifice and service to the country,” Wilkinson said. “It’s disgusting behavior from someone who is supposed to be representing all Nevadans. Captain Brown will never stoop so low, never insult our veterans, and never let partisan politics influence how he treats other people.” FLASHBACK: NEW HARRIS CAMPAIGN SENIOR ADVISER MADE SEVERAL INSENSITIVE COMMENTS ABOUT WOMEN, GAY PEOPLE Fox News Digital reached out to the Rosen campaign for comment but did not receive a response. The Nevada Democratic Party defended calling the book a “grift” in a statement. “After starting a shady PAC last cycle that he used like a slush fund to swindle grassroots donors and pay off his campaign debts, Scam Brown is now using his latest run for office to sell a book and line his own pockets,” Kurz told Fox News Digital.  CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP  “Instead of talking to Nevada voters about the issues they care about in a state he just moved to a few years ago, Sam Brown seems more focused on a self-promotional book pre-sale in the final months before the election.” The Nevada race is being closely watched as many experts believe it represents one of the best chances Republicans have to flip a seat and take back control of the Senate. The Cook Political Report ranks the race as a “toss up” along with the Senate races in Michigan, Montana and Ohio.

NYC mayor blocks law limiting solitary confinement

NYC mayor blocks law limiting solitary confinement

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has issued an emergency executive order suspending parts of a new law that would limit solitary confinement in city jails, arguing that it would put correctional staff and inmates at further risk.  The new law, which went into effect Sunday, originally intended to impose a four-hour time limit on holding prisoners who pose safety concerns in “de-escalation confinement” and limit the use of restraints on prisoners while they are transported to courts or within jails.  “It is of the utmost importance to protect the health and safety of all persons in the custody of the Department of Correction and of all officers and persons who work in the City of New York jails and who transport persons in custody to court and other facilities, and the public,” the Democrat mayor wrote in his order.  He added that “attempting to comply with many of the provisions … such as transporting individuals to court without restraints, would require a massive increase in staff and other resources, which are not available.”  JUDGE RULES NEW YORK STATE PRISONS VIOLATE LAW BY HOLDING INMATES IN SOLITARY CONFINEMENT TOO LONG  Adams also suspended a part of the law that prohibited jail officials from placing a prisoner in longer-term “restrictive housing” for more than a total of 60 days in any 12-month period. His order says jail officials must review a prisoner’s placement in restrictive housing every 15 days.  The law was passed by the New York City Council in December last year. A veto from Adams was then overridden by the Council the following month.  “Each day Mayor Adams’ Administration shows how little respect it has for the laws and democracy, it sets more hypocritical double standards for complying with the law that leave New Yorkers worse off. In this case, our city and everyone in its dysfunctional and dangerous jail system, including staff, are left less safe,” City Council spokesperson Shirley Limongi told The Associated Press in the wake of Adams’ order.   “The reality is that the law already included broad safety exemptions that make this ‘emergency order’ unnecessary and another example of Mayor Adams overusing executive orders without justification,” she added.  NYC MAYOR ERIC ADAMS ENDORSES KAMALA HARRIS FOR PRESIDENT DESPITE CRITICIZING BIDEN ADMINISTRATION BORDER POLICIES  The bill had been introduced by New York City Public Advocate Jumaane Williams, who argued that solitary confinement amounts to torture for those subjected to lengthy hours in isolation in small jail cells, according to the AP.  Williams and other supporters of the new law, including prominent members of New York’s congressional delegation, have pointed to research showing solitary confinement, even only for a few days, increases the likelihood an inmate will die by suicide, violence or overdose. It also leads to acute anxiety, depression, psychosis and other impairments that may reduce an inmate’s ability to reintegrate into society when they are released, they said.  The labor union representing the city’s jail guards opposed the legislation at the time, saying that it would make it more difficult to protect jail workers from violence by detainees. The Correction Officers’ Benevolent Association noted that even with the old punitive segregation rules in place, there were more than 6,000 episodes of detainees assaulting jail guards in the last three years, including 50 cases of sexual assault.
