LEXINGTON, Va. – The Virginia Military Institute has altered its ritual of expelling cadets by waking them up in the middle of the night to the sound of beating drums. The Washington Post reported Tuesday that the school is no longer announcing the expelled students’ names during the so-called “drum outs.” The practice involves waking up the entire corps of cadets. The difference was that the cadets were not identified as they would have been in the past. The Post reported in December that Black students were being disproportionately expelled and shamed by name in drum-out ceremonies. Bill Wyatt, a VMI spokesman, declined to confirm Tuesday’s ceremony to the newspaper.

According to a report conducted by an independent law firm, racial slurs have been a "common experience" among cadets at Virginia Military Institute.

The interim superintendent for the Virginia Military Institute said he’s considering changes to its student-run justice system over concerns that it expels Black students at a disproportionately high rate. The Washington Post reported Friday that retired Maj. Gen. Cedric T. Wins is reviewing the system following the newspaper’s reporting and concerns voiced by a vocal group of prominent VMI graduates. Wins was appointed VMI’s first Black leader amid a state-ordered investigation into racism at the nation’s oldest state-supported military college. He told the Post that he’s considering a requirement that student juries must be unanimous before convicting a cadet. He’s also considering barring the student-run court from naming an expelled cadet during “drum-out” ceremonies to the entire 1,700-member corps.

Crews prepare to remove a statue of Confederate Gen. Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson from the campus of the Virginia Military Institute on Monday, Dec. 7, 2020, in Lexington, Va. (AP Photo/Sarah Rankin)LEXINGTON, Va. – The Virginia Military Institute removed a prominent statue of Confederate Gen. Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson on Monday, a project initiated this fall after allegations of systemic racism roiled the public college. But “VMI does not define itself by this statue and that is why this move is appropriate,” he added. VMI said the statue will be relocated to a nearby Civil War museum at a battlefield where dozens of VMI cadets were killed or wounded. But he said it would not remove the statue of Jackson, who owned enslaved people, or rethink the names of buildings honoring Confederate leaders. In 2015, VMI did away with requiring freshmen to salute the statue each time they passed it, Wyatt said.

A white Virginia police officer accused of firing a stun gun at a Black man without provocation was indicted Monday on misdemeanor assault charges. Last Monday, a judge granted prosecutors' request to drop the charges so they could seek an indictment that allows him to be tried by a circuit court jury.

They have denied that the officer did anything wrong and said he mistook La Monta Gladney, the man Timberlake encountered, for another man with a criminal record. Body camera footage released by police shows Timberlake fired his stun gun at the unarmed man.

(CNN) - Former Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin says in a new book that he was shocked by an apparent culture of backstabbing in Washington and specifically his own department -- and that veterans are paying the price, The Washington Post reported Friday. But "the environment in Washington had grown so toxic, chaotic and subversive that it became impossible for me to accomplish the important work that our veterans need and deserve." President Donald Trump became upset with Shulkin over the growing scandals, ultimately nominating Ronny Jackson, the former physician to the president, to fill the role. While Shulkin's account does not offer many glimpses into Trump's thinking, he does recount an interaction with the president and his son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner, the Post reported. Shulkin alleges that his own staff members, using ethics concerns over the Europe trip for their benefit, were behind his ouster, the Post reported.

The US Treasury Department building is seen in Washington, DC, on July 22, 2019. The chairman's request to the inspector general comes following the revelation of a whistleblower in connection with the federal court case stemming from Neal's denied requested for President Donald Trump's tax information.

He has argued that he wants the records to make sure the presidential tax audit program is working properly or if it is necessary to make legislative fixes.

The whistleblower did not disclose details of the report to the Post. The whistleblower denied acting with political motivations and argued that the complaint being uncorroborated was "what investigations are for," according to the Post. Citing multiple people familiar with the complaint, the Post reported that White House officials found it to be insubstantial because it was dependent on conversations with secondary government officials. The presidential tax audit program, conducted by the IRS, automatically audits every incoming president's taxes.

Giambalvo also says the success of the 47 dogs showed that fight dogs can be rehabilitated if they are rescued.

The new ABC News/Washington Post poll looked at how Trump would perform against five potential general election candidates if the election was held today.

(CNN) - The National Weather Service sent a memo last week to staffers directing them to focus on Hurricane Dorian and not "national level social media posts," an apparent reference to false claims made by President Donald Trump that the storm would impact Alabama. An NWS spokesperson, confirming the existence of the memo, said the guidance was intended to "maintain operational focus on Dorian and other severe weather hazards without distraction" and noted that it doesn't mention Trump. Last week, Trump caused confusion in Alabama after falsely asserting in a tweet that Dorian would affect the state. A meteorologist from NOAA, which oversees the NWS, told the Post that the memo was "understood internally to be referring to Trump" and that it came after the Birmingham NWS office contradicted the President. An official familiar with the matter from NOAA told the Post that there was "no political motivation" behind the memo.

The editor of the Washington Post says President Trump's latest insults against two Post reporters are "unwarranted and dangerous." (Brendan Smialowski/AFP/Getty)(CNN) - The editor of the Washington Post says President Trump's latest insults against two Post reporters are "unwarranted and dangerous." Trump tweeted on Saturday morning that reporters Philip Rucker and Ashley Parker "shouldn't even be allowed on the grounds of the White House."

Peter Baker, the chief White House correspondent at The New York Times, said they're "two of the absolute best.

Since Sunday, Trump has aggressively defended his claim that Hurricane Dorian was likely to hit Alabama, even after the National Weather Service stressed that "no impacts from Hurricane Dorian will be felt across Alabama." Earlier this week, a source familiar with the briefing did not deny to CNN that Trump had drawn the black line on the map. Later Wednesday, Trump was asked by a reporter whether the black line over Alabama was made with a permanent marker. I don't know," Trump replied. Hurricane Dorian has devastated the Bahamas, leaving at at least 30 people dead and a wake of wreckage.

Negotiators for the White House and congressional leaders were working out details, but any agreement would still require the president's approval, the Post said. The White House had sought cuts to reach a deal, but sources told the Post any such cuts would happen at a later time, and could be reversed by a future session of Congress. The House will recess next week, leaving a tight timeline for approval.

2003: In an effort to discredit U.S. Ambassador Joseph C. Wilson, who had written an article critical of the 2003 invasion of Iraq, Washington Post columnist Robert Novak reveals that Wilson's wife Valerie Plame (pictured here in 2014) is a CIA covert operative. The column effectively ended Plame's career with the CIA and she later formally resigned in December 2005. The resulting scandal also led to a criminal investigation over the leak, although no one was ever charged for the leak itself. Scooter Libby, Vice President Dick Cheney's chief of staff, was eventually convicted of lying to investigators in connection with the case, but his prison sentence was ultimately commuted by President George W. Bush.
