Rep. Jim Himes is uncertain about voting for the debt ceiling deal, citing the legislative process as a "ransom note and hostage-taking" one.

Red State: The Associated Press Is Having a Horrible Holiday Weekend
The Associated Press has been on a losing streak with a blend of unneeded and untimely reports. It seems the bulk of the AP staff checked out early for the holiday weekend. AP tweeted out a report on the death of pro football hall of famer Jim Brown which was perplexing since Brown had died nine days prior. Another report was on Target's controversial trans clothing lines for children and the AP altered its headline and text significantly due to no proof of violence at their locations. A Florida school moved books from an elementary section of the library to the middle school section and AP falsely reported that a poem by Amanda Gorman was banned by the school.
