Gov. Abbott to Texas House Dems: Show Up to Work Monday or Be Fired
Texas Governor Greg Abbott warned House Democrats they will lose their offices if they do not return to the Legislature by 3 p.m. on Monday. He plans to invoke powers under the Texas Constitution to remove absent members, citing a legal opinion that allows for determining if a legislator has vacated their office.

Democrats fled to Illinois to block redistricting efforts, claiming the governor's map is racially biased. Abbott suggested that their absence could lead to legal action and potential felony charges for soliciting funds to evade legislative duties.

Texas House Democrats fled the state to block a vote on a redrawn congressional map that could give Republicans five additional seats. This move aims to prevent the quorum needed for the vote amidst ongoing partisan clashes over mid-decade redistricting requested by former President Trump.

The Democrats criticized Republican leadership for using recent flooding disasters as political leverage, asserting that disaster relief should not be tied to gerrymandering efforts. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton condemned the Democrats' actions, calling for their return to the Capitol.

Browns Reporter Zings Bill Belichick-Jordon Hudson Romance During Award Speech
Mary Kay Cabot criticized former Patriots coach Bill Belichick during her acceptance speech for the Bill Nunn Memorial Award, recalling her challenging experiences covering him as the Browns' coach. She highlighted his difficult demeanor and contrasted it with his current relationship with 24-year-old Jordon Hudson.

Cabot's remarks suggest a shift in perspective, indicating that Belichick's hard-nosed approach may stem from his inability to relate to women of her age when she first began her career. Belichick, now 72, has been in the spotlight for his romance with Hudson since June 2022.

Scientists left stunned after discovering THOUSANDS of sea creatures living six miles underwater
Researchers have discovered thriving communities of tube worms and clams nearly six miles underwater in the Kuril–Kamchatka and Aleutian trenches. These creatures, living at unprecedented depths, rely on chemosynthesis, deriving energy from chemicals like hydrogen sulfide and methane.

This finding marks the first identification of chemical consumers at such depths, revealing a vibrant ecosystem in extreme conditions. The discovery suggests that similar life forms could exist in the oceans of other planets, expanding our understanding of life's adaptability.
