Massie just dropped a bomb:
He says the White House directly pressured GOP holdouts, Boebert, Mace, MTG, to abandon the Epstein files petition, telling one of them, “We can’t let Massie have a win.” They weren’t trying to protect “process.”

Florida will phase out certificates of completion for students with disabilities
The change comes after a legislative session that for the most part championed the rights of students with disabilities.

Breaking from the Office of Pres. Obama:
"Our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response. But these claims are outrageous enough to merit one. These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction.
