CVS partners with AGs to curb retail crime: Thieves 'not being prosecuted, and they need to be'



CVS recently announced that it is partnering with law enforcement agencies and attorneys general to curb surging organized retail crime, Fox Business reported.

On Wednesday, CVS CEO Karen Lynch told "CBS Evening News" that the chain pharmacy store is doing all it can to crack down on shoplifting, stating that thieves have been "ripping through the entire counter."

Lynch stated that a lot of items in the store are locked up because burglaries have been a problem for the retailer. In 2022, American retailers lost approximately $112.1 billion to shoplifters, according to a National Retail Security survey.

"Organized retail theft is a big problem," she added. "They're coming in; they're clearing shelves off, and then reselling [the items]. What I'm most concerned about is the safety of our colleagues and the safety of our customers."

Over the last couple of years, the retailer has rolled out additional safety measures, Lynch noted.

"We're working very closely with law enforcement and with attorneys general because they're not being prosecuted, and they need to be," she continued. "I actually had a video the other day where it was late at night and a car went through our front door."

Lynch explained that the video showed a vehicle driving through the front door of one of the pharmacy locations. Six males then jumped out of the car and "ransacked the entire CVS."

A CVS spokesperson referred to the retailer as a "national leader in the fight against [organized retail crime]," Fox Business reported.

"We partner with federal, state, and local law enforcement — as well as with other retailers — to identify and dismantle these criminal operations," the CVS representative said, noting that the retailer has already successfully dismantled dozens of large criminal organizations.

CVS stated that it supports the Combating Organized Retail Crime Act, a new bipartisan bill that would enhance coordination between law enforcement agencies. If passed by lawmakers, the measure would create a federal Organized Retail Crime Coordination Center.

David Johnston, the National Retail Foundation vice president, told Fox Business, "We have to take a really good look at what got us here. And there are a lot of things that got us to this point, some of them inclusive of individual states making changes to how they react to shoplifting."

Johnston called for "appropriate consequences" for individuals caught stealing from retail establishments.

In January, a CVS location in Washington, D.C., announced that it would close its doors, likely due to the area's retail theft problem, despite staffing armed security guards. A CVS spokesperson told WTOP that the retailer is working with law enforcement agencies to "identify and dismantle several major shoplifting rings."

CVS revealed plans in 2021 to close 900 store locations over a three-year period, citing "local market dynamics, population shifts, and a community's store density." The closure represents almost 10% of all its locations in the United States.

Common items in CVS stores nationwide are increasingly being locked up due to a rise in burglaries. CVS CEO Karen Lynch says "it\u2019s a problem" and tells @NorahODonnell that the company is implementing new safety measures in response.\n\nSee more tonight at 6:30 p.m. ET on the CBS\u2026

Hillary Clinton says she will never seek the presidency again



Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said that she will never mount another White House bid.

"Would you ever run for president again?" Norah O'Donnell asked Clinton during an interview.

"No, no," Clinton replied, adding that she will do everything she can to ensure that the nation has "a president who respects our democracy and the rule of law and upholds our institutions."

"What if Donald Trump runs again?" O'Donnell asked.

"He should be soundly defeated. It should start in the Republican Party. Grow a backbone. Stand up to this guy," Clinton declared, adding that in the event that he becomes the GOP presidential nominee, Trump "needs to be defeated roundly and sent back to Mar-a-Lago."

\u201cEXCLUSIVE: @HillaryClinton tells @NorahODonnell she does not plan to run for president again, but did vow to do everything she can to ensure a future president \u201crespects our democracy.\u201d Adding if Trump runs again that Republicans should \u201cgrow a backbone.\u201d\u201d
— CBS Evening News (@CBS Evening News) 1662506342

While Trump has not made an official announcement, he is widely expected to run for president again during the 2024 election cycle.

President Joe Biden has said that he plans to run for re-election as long has he is healthy. If Biden were to run and win, he would be 86-years-old by the conclusion of his second term in office.

Clinton, the wife of former President Bill Clinton, was the Democratic presidential nominee in 2016 but ultimately lost the election to Republican candidate Donald Trump. She had previously served as Secretary of State during a portion of President Barack Obama's tenure in office. Prior to that, she had served as a U.S. Senator from the state of New York.

Doug Schoen, who describes himself on Twitter as a "Democrat committed to restoring bipartisanship," has contended that a presidential run by Clinton would give Democrats "their best chance" at securing victory during the 2024 election.

"Regardless of one's own political affiliation or opinion of Clinton, the country knows her as an experienced politician and a champion of women's rights," Schoen asserted in an opinion piece earlier this year. He claimed that Clinton "offers the exact type of leadership that the Democratic Party desperately needs." Schoen argued, "If Democrats want a chance at winning the presidency in 2024, Clinton is — now more than ever — their best chance."

Janet Yellen gets called out after claiming proposal for IRS to get bank account data is about holding wealthy Americans accountable



Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen was promptly called out after defending a controversial proposal that could have the Internal Revenue Service intrusively tracking all bank accounts with transactions that annually total $600 or more.

What is the proposal?

To improve "tax compliance" and boost government revenue, the Treasury Department outlined a proposal in May that would allow the IRS to track bank account data for any account with withdrawals or deposits that annually total at least $600.

The proposal states:

This proposal would create a comprehensive financial account information reporting regime.Financial institutions would report data on financial accounts in an information return. Theannual return will report gross inflows and outflows with a breakdown for physical cash,transactions with a foreign account, and transfers to and from another account with the sameowner. This requirement would apply to all business and personal accounts from financialinstitutions, including bank, loan, and investment accounts, with the exception of accountsbelow a low de minimis gross flow threshold of $600 or fair market value of $600.

Further, the proposal would give the treasury secretary "broad authority to issue regulations necessary to implement this proposal."

What did Yellen say?

During an interview with "CBS Evening News" this week, Yellen defended the proposal, saying its purpose is to hold billionaires and wealthy Americans accountable.

"Look, the big picture is that we have a tax gap that over the next decade is estimated at $7 trillion," Yellen said. "Namely, a shortfall in the amount that IRS is collecting due to a failure of individuals to report the income that they have earned."

"But that's among billionaires," host Norah O'Donnell pointed out. "Is that among people who are transferring $600?"

"No, it tends to be among high-income individuals whose income is opaque and the IRS doesn't receive information about it," Yellen replied. "If you earn a paycheck, you get a W-2, the IRS knows about it. But high-income individuals with opaque sources of income that are not reported to the IRS, there's a lot of tax fraud and cheating that's going on, and all that's involved in this proposal is a few aggregate numbers about bank accounts: the amount that was received in the course of the year, the amount that went out in the course of a year."

— CBS Evening News (@CBSEveningNews) 1634069505.0

What was the response?

Yellen was promptly called out and accused of being dishonest.

Critics pointed out the obvious: If the proposal is about holding accountable wealthy Americans, like billionaires, why is the annual transaction threshold proposed to be a mere $600?

  • "Can't tell you how many billionaires got that way by withdrawing $600 at a time from a bank. Because that would take literally 1,666,666 transactions," Ben Shapiro questioned.
  • "Biden will double the size of the IRS and surveil every bank account in America... and find that billionaires are corps still have better tax lawyers than the government and can defend everything they claim. But millions of small businesses will be audited blind," Phil Kerpen warned.
  • "That's insane. You don't become a Billionaire by hiding transactions of $600 from scrutiny," National Review's Michael Brendan Dougherty responded.
  • "$600 to hold billionaires accountable. This is an insult to the intelligence of the American people," another person reacted.
  • "This is the Chinese Communist Party's police state right here in America, Biden-style," Rep. Mark Green (R-Tenn.) said.
  • "Everyone knows this is bulls**t. They know everyone knows this is bulls**t," another person said.
  • "I'm having a hard time understanding how this holds our billionaires accountable," one person wondered.
  • "Wow, if $600 is the threshold then I know more billionaires than I realized," another person mocked.

If the proposal ever came to fruition, it would take effect for tax years beginning after 2022.

CBS News: Cuomo accuser says governor 'groomed her' for sex; her lawyer says he 'derailed' her career



Charlotte Bennett, the second woman to come forward and accuse New York Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment, told CBS News in an interview set to air Thursday evening that the governor "groomed her" for sex. Her lawyer says the entire scandal "derailed her career."

Bennett, 25, who served as an aide to Cuomo, has repeatedly said that the governor sexually harassed her last spring.

"I understood that the governor wanted to sleep with me, and felt horribly uncomfortable and scared," Bennett told the New York Times. "And was wondering how I was going to get out of it and assumed it was the end of my job."

She also has said that Cuomo asked her inappropriate questions about her sex life during her time working for him.

Now Bennett is taking her claims a step further, revealing more details in the forthcoming CBS News interview.

CBS' Norah O'Donnell explained Thursday morning what Bennett is now revealing.

Bennett told O'Donnell that Gov. Cuomo "groomed her," the reporter said, and that he asked her "shocking questions."

"It is a powerful interview," O'Donnell said. "For the first time, you are going to hear her describe in her own words exactly what Gov. Cuomo said to her; the shocking questions that he asked her about her sex life — he asked her about whether she had sex with older men; how he told her that he was lonely."

O'Donnell added that this interview "is the most detailed account we have heard to date from one of his accusers."

Bennett "talks about how she believes that Gov. Cuomo groomed her" and "about the culture in the Cuomo administration," O'Donnell revealed.

The ex-aide who worked for Cuomo for "several years," O'Donnell said, "has spoken with other women who worked for Gov. Cuomo who had similar experiences."

According to O'Donnell, Bennett reported the behavior to Cuomo's chief of staff and to his special council, and the fallout, Bennett's lawyer, Debra Katz, said, destroyed Bennett's professional future.

"It derailed her career," Katz told CBS News.

Post-debate media roundup: Poor boys, Abraham Lincoln and Hunter Biden



The final debate before the 2020 presidential election saw the two candidates punching hard at each other, but neither struck a knockout blow. Most commentators thought NBC News moderator Kristen Welker did a much better job and the muting of microphones seemed to aid in keeping the discussion civil and more intelligible.

Here are some of the more interesting reactions to the debate from social media.

Many people were glad that Hunter Biden was made an issue:

Biden sarcastically referred to the president as Abraham Lincoln and he didn't quite get it:

Thanks to this exchange, Abraham Lincoln was trending on Twitter briefly. But unfortunately for Biden, Twitter noticed he mistook the "poor boys" for what he meant, which was "Proud Boys," a far-right organization:

Joe Biden says commission to 'reform' Supreme Court will go 'well beyond' court packing



During a yet-to-be-aired "60 Minutes" interview, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden announced that, if elected in November, he would establish a commission to reform the Supreme Court — and changes to be considered would go "well beyond" just court packing.

"If elected, what I will do is I'll put together a national commission of, a bipartisan commission of scholars, constitutional scholars, Democrats, Republicans, liberal, conservative. And I will ask them to over 180 days come back to me with recommendations as to how to reform the court system because it's getting out of whack ... the way in which it's being handled," Biden said in a clip from the interview posted to Twitter Thursday.

"And it's not about court packing. There's a number of other things that our constitutional scholars have debated and I've looked to see what recommendations that commission might make," he added.

"There's a number of alternatives that go well beyond packing," he indicated. "The last thing we need to do is turn the Supreme Court into just a political football — whoever has the most votes gets whatever they want. Presidents come and go. Supreme court justices stay for generations."

— 60 Minutes (@60 Minutes)1603365014.0

It was not immediately clear to what "alternatives" Biden was referring to, and it's doubtful that the candidate will disclose them before the election, anyhow.

The comments are likely to stir up more controversy around the issue as Biden and his running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) have been purposefully tightlipped about their intentions, refusing to indicate whether they would add seats to the court in response to Judge Amy Coney Barrett's expected confirmation to the Supreme Court.

At one point earlier this month, Biden even snapped after being asked about his intentions and amazingly stated that voters don't deserve to know his stance on the issue before the election.

Then last week, when pressed on the issue once again, Biden hinted that he's "not a fan" of court packing but still refused to give a clear answer on the issue.

TheBlaze noted in a recent report that any attempt to grow the Supreme Court will need to go through Congress first, and thus a number of moderate Democrats, especially in the Senate, would need to be convinced.

That effort may prove to be particularly difficult since a majority of Americans — 58% — still oppose court packing, according to a recent poll conducted by the New York Times.

Post-debate media roundup: The fly dominates the debate. Also, Mike Pence is sexist.



Wednesday night's vice presidential debate was a substantive, issue-driven, coherent political debate between Vice President Mike Pence and Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), and a significant amount of the media discussion about and reaction to the debate focused on a fly.

During the debate at Kingsbury Hall, Salt Lake City, Utah, a fly landed on Pence's head and sat there for about two minutes.

Aside from the fly, immediate media reaction to the debate focused on the performances of the two vice presidential candidates. MSNBC host Rachel Maddow remarked that the debate reminded her of what politics used to be like, before criticizing the Trump administration.

Maddow led a panel with MSNBC contributors Nicole Wallace and Joy Reid.

Reid, after mentioning the fly, criticized Pence for interrupting Harris, accusing him of "doing a softer version of what Donald Trump did last week."

"He repeatedly interrupted her, he demanded, well, he also repeatedly interrupted the other woman in the room, which is the moderator who seemed to at some point lose control of him, and he also continually demanded that Kamala Harris answer his questions," Reid said. "She was not there to answer his questions."

After Reid noted how Pence apparently steamrolled the moderator and Harris, which she said will hurt Trump with women, Wallace said his performance was "flaccid and anemic," which she says will hurt Trump with men.
