Senior U.S. Air Force leaders recently reemphasized their support for the F-35, calling the 5th Generation fighter the “cornerstone” of the Air Force’s tactical capability. The remarks were intended to clarify recent erroneous media coverage claiming that the “Air Force has admitted the F-35 program has failed.”
During a Feb. 25 news conference at the Air Force Association’s Aerospace Warfare Symposium, Gen. Charles Q. Brown, Jr., Chief of Staff of the U.S. Air Force, debunked this claim, stating that “the F-35 is the cornerstone of the U.S. Air Force fighter fleet” today and in the future.

As the oldest millennials turn 40 this year and more of them become law firm partners we’re once again taking our annual look at this generation of lawyers.
In partnership with our friends at Major Lindsey & Africa, we want to particularly delve into the dynamics of how millennials continue to affect legal industry culture.
Starting today, we are running a series of quick surveys intended to capture the viewpoint of younger lawyers and help determine what differentiates them from both their (non-attorney) generational peers and their older colleagues.
Today’s survey concerns the workplace priorities of millennials, covering topics as varied as diversity and inclusion, mentorship, and work-life balance.

The Justice Department prosecutors investigating the January 6 Capitol Riot have asked the court for more time to bring the cases to trial citing the sheer quantity of crimes and the mountain of evidence thereof.
As first reported by Politico, U.S. Attorneys in D.C. have filed motions in several cases asking to suspend the 70-day trial requirement. Under a provision of the Speedy Trial Act, the court may grant a continuance upon finding that “the ends of justice served by taking such action outweigh the best interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial.”
