Today's headlines: The United States is expected to hit the debt ceiling today because the House of Representatives is refusing to vote to raise it. New reports continue to arise about George Santos, who has still not resigned from Congress. Senators Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin spoke on a panel at the World Economic Forum, where they high-fived over the preservation of the filibuster. Finally for today, several public colleges and universities are also banning TikTok from school computers, cell phones and Wi-Fi, and Taliban officials have started using the paid verification feature to acquire blue checks on Twitter.
