  • Summary

  • Today’s Headlines: Senate Republicans just blocked the Right to IVF Act, halting efforts to protect access to IVF treatments. Only two Republicans backed the bill, while Senator JD Vance didn’t even show up to vote. Meanwhile, Microsoft researchers revealed Russian-backed groups are spreading disinformation about Vice President Harris, and election officials in 15 states have received suspicious packages, sparking federal investigations. In Ohio, a sheriff urged people to track homes supporting Harris, and in Arizona, a DMV glitch may prevent 100,000 voters from participating in state elections. Israel launched a strike killing Hezbollah commanders in Lebanon, and Sean Combs was arrested on federal sex trafficking charges dating back to 2008.
