Story by Saijel Kishan and Noah Buhayar • 48m ago

 

(Bloomberg) – Vanguard Group Inc.’s decision to leave the world’s largest climate-finance coalition was slammed by former US Vice President Al Gore, who said the move was out of step with the growing awareness among business leaders that they can no longer afford to ignore global warmin

 

Gore, who chairs Generation Investment Management, one of the world’s biggest sustainable investing firms, called the move “extremely disappointing” during an interview in San Francisco. “It’s an irresponsible and shortsighted decision.”

He’s with her: Eric Adams stands by AG Letitia James as harass scandal spirals

Story by Nolan Hicks, Bruce Golding • 1h ago

 

Mayor Eric Adams offered a full-throated endorsement of embattled state Attorney General Letitia James on Thursday in the wake of her former aide’s claim that she covered up sexual harassment allegations against a top staffer while running for reelection.

 

“I don’t think I know a better advocate to fight on behalf of women than Tish James,” Adams said during an unrelated news conference at City Hall. “Tish James is, you know, a real voice of women in leadership, and I think she’s extremely capable of investigating.”

 

In response to a question from The Post, the mayor also said, “Any my understanding is she had an outside entity that investigated — and once the report was released, she turned it over.

 

“But I think Tish is a real advocate,” he added of his fellow Brooklyn Democrat.

 

James has come under fire since it was revealed last week that her chief of staff, Ibrahim Khan, had resigned over sexual harassment allegations that James kept under wraps during the run-up to last month’s elections, in which she won a second term.

 

James refused to debate her Republican challenger, Michael Henry, who this week said she “spent weeks in hiding” because “she probably feared that somehow the sexual harassment scandal she worked so hard to cover up would come to light.”

 

In a report published Wednesday by The New York Times, former James aide Sofia Quintanar, 33, said she was among the women whose accusations led to Khan’s resignation.

Quintanar said Khan grabbed her and “forced his tongue down my throat” outside a Brooklyn bar in November 2021.

 

The Times also said Khan was accused of groping and kissing a former colleague of Quintanar’s, citing two people familiar with that woman’s accusations.

 

Quintanar reportedly accused James of withholding the allegations against Khan in a bid to let him resign with his reputation intact and compared that to James’ sexual harassment probe that forced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo to resign in disgrace last year, even though he denies any wrongdoing.
