From Washington: FEMA’S Financial Stand Still
Calls for Congress to return from October recess continue to grow after two devastating hurricanes tore through the Southeastern part of the United States. President Joe Biden says he supports providing FEMA with $15 billion to fund the recovery effort and warned that FEMA will struggle to make it through the rest of hurricane season if Congress doesn’t step in. FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram explains whether or not government entities will be able to meet the financial demands following both storms.
The Supreme Court justices returned to the bench this week for the start of a new term. The High Court has selected 40 cases to look over this term, from Ghost Guns to medical marijuana and whether or not minors can receive puberty blockers. Yet, the Justices decided to forgo the controversial IVF case from Alabama, sparking speculation that the court doesn’t want to involve itself with sensitive cases during an election year. Constitutional law professor at the George Washington University Law School, Jonathan Turley shares why he thinks the current Justices are trying to keep the peace and why the court may be drawn into partisan disputes this term.
