New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham has allowed her public gun ban, initially issued as a temporary health order, to expire after a year. She claims the measure was successful, citing the removal of over 1,700 firearms and a decrease in murder investigations, although the statistics remain contentious.
Despite the claims of success, the governor faced significant pushback from gun rights advocates and political opponents. The expiration of the order raises questions about its effectiveness and the potential implications for public safety in Albuquerque.
Fox News: Pacific Northwest could decide which party controls the House
Voters in Washington and Oregon, traditionally Democratic states, may influence Republican control of the House in upcoming elections. Low enthusiasm among Democrats, partly due to Vice President Harris's unpopularity and backlash against support for Israel, could lead to potential Republican gains.
Key races include Oregon's 5th District, where incumbent Lori Chavez-DeRemer faces Janelle Bynum, and Washington's 3rd District, with Joe Kent challenging Marie Gluesenkamp Perez. Both contests highlight shifting demographics and voter concerns, particularly around crime and inflation.

Election predictions have historically proven unreliable, with notable misfires in 2016 and 2020. Polls often fail to account for "hidden Trump voters," making forecasts uncertain, especially in key battleground states.

The Federalist: Washington Adds Another $1.9 Trillion To The Debt In 2024
The Congressional Budget Office reports a projected $1.9 trillion deficit for fiscal year 2024, reflecting a slight improvement over 2023's $2 trillion deficit. Despite rising revenues, spending continues to outpace income, jeopardizing the nation’s fiscal stability.
Lawmakers face pressure to increase spending further, particularly with the impending expiration of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Without significant cuts to spending, the nation risks a fiscal crisis, diminishing financial leverage and increasing vulnerability to adversaries.
