David French: Pornography corrodes values that sustain family life

On Internet pornography:
• "Porn makes men pathetic. Its true toll isn't the loss of 'virility,' but the corrosion of values that sustain family life. A generation of young men are now experiencing the high cost of low character."--April 7
• "This is the era of sexual liberty--the marriage of hedonism to meaning--and the establishment of a new civic religion. The black-robed priesthood has spoken. Will the church bow before their new masters?"--June 26, 2015

Kirsten Gillibrand: The future was female and intersectional

"We want women to have a seat at the table," Gillibrand said. At that, Wallace jumped in and asked: "What about men?"

"They're already there -- do you not know?" Gillibrand said, greeted by one of the biggest rounds of applause of the night. "It's not meant to be exclusionary, it's meant to be inclusionary," she said.

Monica Wehby: 2013: Ex-boyfriend filed police report, but now regrets it

Wehby was questioned by a police officer on April 3, 2013. Miller, the wealthy owner of a timber company, had been romantically involved with Wehby but their relationship was ending at that time, they both say now. Wehby was not arrested in the incident.

Miller has helped fund radio and billboard ads slamming one of Wehby's rivals for the Senate nomination, state Rep. James Conger. Miller has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in recent years backing GOP candidates in Oregon.

Wehby said she was unaware that a police report had been filed over the 2013 incident and downplayed the episode. Miller said he now regrets calling the police on Wehby. The couple had dated for about two years, but broke up in 2013. Miller, divorced with 4 children, said they remain friendly.

Scott Pruitt: Double headline - Already Done

Throughout the programs, Pruitt suggested that states might need to call a constitutional convention to propose amendments that would allow expression of religion in government, declare abortion illegal and bar same-sex marriage.

Pruitt acknowledged some trepidation about holding a constitutional convention, which could make wholesale changes to the nation's founding charter.

"It scares me to a large degree to go into something like a constitutional convention, 'cause that means that we're going to have to really be educated, and informed, and debate," he said. "But you know what? Maybe it's time."
