Today, we start with President Biden asking congress to suspend the federal gas tax through the end of September, while A 5.9 magnitude earthquake struck Afghanistan Wednesday. Then, following the Uvalde shooting, Police Chief Pete Arredondo has been placed on administrative leave, congress seem to be getting some traction in passing legislation to help prevent future shootings, and a Georgia republican candidate said that his Democratic opponent could leave the state if she wasn’t happy there. Finally, the January 6th Committee hearing is happening today at 3pm eastern, and the fate of Roe vs. Wade could be announced at any moment.
