Biden declines to apologize to women accusers

 

Former Vice President Joe Biden on Friday declined to directly apologize to the women who have accused him of inappropriate touching in an interview with the women anchors on ABC’s “The View.”

 

Biden defended his behavior as innocent and described his public displays of affection as a means of connecting with people on the campaign trail.

The former vice president was pressed on several occasions to directly apologize to the women who said he made them uncomfortable. Instead, he apologized if there was a misunderstanding about his intentions.

“I’m really sorry if what I did in talking to them in trying to console, if in fact they took it in a different way,” Biden said. “It’s my responsibility to make sure that I bend over backwards to understand how not to do that.”

 

“So I invaded your space and I’m sorry this happened,” he added. “But I’m not sorry in the sense I think I did anything that was intentionally wrong or did anything inappropriate.”

Biden had previously said he never “intended” to make anyone uncomfortable and that he’d be more mindful of women’s personal space. But he’s also joked about the matter. After hugging a man at a union rally earlier this month, Biden reassured the crowd he had permission to do so.

Biden on Anita Hill: "I don't think I treated her badly"

 

Former Vice President Joe Biden apologized Friday for how Anita Hill was treated by the Senate Judiciary Committee during her 1991 testimony on Clarence Thomas, but defended his own treatment of Hill.

Speaking on ABC's "The View," Biden was asked if he would directly apologize to Hill for the way he treated her.

 

“I’m sorry for the way she got treated,” Biden said. “Look at what I said and didn’t say, I don’t think I treated her badly.”

“I believed Dr. Hill, I believed what she was saying,” he added. “There were a lot of mistakes made across the board and for those I apologize. We could have conducted it better but I believed Dr. Hill from the beginning and I said it.”

 

Biden reached out to Hill in the run-up to his Thursday presidential launch express regret for how she was treated during her 1991 testimony, when she accused then-Supreme Court nominee Thomas of sexual harassment. Biden was chairman of the committee at the time.

Hill rejected Biden’s apology, saying she is not convinced that he truly accepts responsibility for the matter.

“I cannot be satisfied by simply saying I’m sorry for what happened to you,” Hill said to the New York Times. “I will be satisfied when I know there is real change and real accountability and real purpose.”

White House economic advisor Larry Kudlow says Fed should still cut rates despite 3.2% GDP growth

 

The U.S. economy is off to its best start to a year since 2015 and White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow says Federal Reserve should still add stimulus by cutting interest rates.

GDP grew by 3.2% in the first quarter, which Kudlow called “a blow out number.” He said the current economy is in a “prosperity cycle” that “is gaining momentum, not losing momentum”

“The inflation rate continues to slip lower and lower,” Kudlow told CNBC’s “Squawk on the Street” on Friday. “Even according to the Fed’s own spokespeople, from the chairman on down, that could open the door to a target rate reduction.”

 

Kudlow, director of President Donald Trump’s National Economic Council, said the argument for cutting interest rates was coming by the Fed’s own metrics.

“We are clicking on all cylinders, the inflation rate is coming down, the Federal Reserve will be looking at that,” Kudlow said.

Kudlow has advocated this view ever since Fed Chairman Jerome Powell said at the central bank’s March meeting that no rate cuts would be necessary this year. Both Kudlow and Trump have been outspoken that they think the Fed should stop shrinking its balance sheet and cut rates.

Kansas Supreme Court rules state constitution protects right to abortion

 

The Kansas Supreme Court ruled Friday that the state's constitution protects a woman's right to access an abortion.

"Among the rights is the right of personal autonomy," the justices wrote in a 6-1 decision. "This right allows a woman to make her own decisions regarding her body, health, family formation, and family life—decisions that can include whether to continue a pregnancy."

The case centered on a 2015 Kansas law that banned a second-trimester abortion procedure called "dilation and evacuation."

The statute banned those types of abortions except when necessary to preserve the life of the mother, prevent impairment of a major bodily function of the mother or if the fetus is already dead.

The justices ruled that the ability to control one's own body is protected under the state constitution's rights to liberty and pursuit of happiness.

"Pregnant women, like men, possess these rights," they wrote.
