Diving, at least to the untrained eye, is better in slow motion. Without gravity, you can see the synchronicity, the aerial gymnastics. Photographer Adam Pretty achieved that in these photos, but with a twist. His images are blurry, Monet-like stills — Olympic divers in a fever dream.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki said DOJ is reviewing the court’s decision and will have “more to say later today”
A federal judge on Wednesday vacated a nationwide freeze on evictions that was put in place by federal health officials to help cash-strapped renters remain in their homes during the pandemic.
The ruling was a win for a coalition of property owners and realtors, who brought one of several challenges against the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) eviction moratorium, which was first enacted under former President Trump and later extended through June.
In a 20-page ruling, U.S. District Court Judge Dabney Friedrich, who was appointed by Trump, ruled that the agency exceeded its authority with the temporary ban.
“The question for the Court is a narrow one: Does the Public Health Service Act grant the CDC the legal authority to impose a nationwide eviction moratorium? It does not,” Friedrich wrote.
Trump is still banned from Facebook and Instagram
It appears that House GOP leaders have settled on Elise Stefanik to replace Liz Cheney
The House Republican leadership has turned on Rep. Liz Cheney.
Reps. Kevin McCarthy of California and Steve Scalise of Louisiana – the top two House Republicans – are quietly working behind the scenes to boost New York Rep. Elise Stefanik’s bid for House Republican Conference Chair.
McCarthy has reached out to candidates, seeking to help clear the field for Stefanik, a close ally of his. And Scalise is openly supporting Stefanik.
“House Republicans need to be solely focused on taking back the House in 2022 and fighting against Speaker Pelosi and President Biden’s radical socialist agenda, and Elise Stefanik is strongly committed to doing that, which is why Whip Scalise has pledged to support her for Conference Chair,” said Lauren Fine, Scalise’s spokesman.
