Monday marked day one of early voting in Georgia, where two hotly contested races for governor and for a Senate seat will be decided next month. Already, voter turnout in the state has smashed previous records.

"This blows away the previous midterm first-day record of approximately 72,000, and we have lots of voting to go today," elections official Gabe Sterling told the outlet.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) is expressing extreme confidence in his chances of becoming Speaker next year if Republicans win control of the House in the midterm elections, suggesting that divine intervention is the only thing that can keep him from the gavel. McCarthy said in an interview with Punchbowl News published Monday that he believes he can win the votes of the House Republican Conference no matter how large a GOP majority is, that the prospect of losing does not keep him up at night, and that if he doesn’t win, it wasn’t in “God’s plan.”

After OPEC+ announced the decision, White House officials said the U.S. would reassess its relationship with Saudi Arabia. "We believe by the decision that OPEC+ made last week, [Saudi Arabia is] certainly aligning themselves with Russia," White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said during a press briefing this week. "And right now, this is not the time to be aligning with Russia, especially with this brutal, unprecedented war that they started in Ukraine."

Just about every election cycle, there’s an argument for why, this time, things might be different — different from expectations based on historical trends and key factors like the state of the economy or the president’s approval rating. The arguments are often pretty plausible. After all, every cycle is different. There’s almost always something unprecedented about a given election year — in just the last few cycles, the pandemic, the first female presidential major party nominee and the first Black president were all truly novel. There’s always a way to spin up a rationale for why old rules won’t apply.

In an effort to boost its policies and chart a path to the future ahead of the November midterm elections , the White House released the Biden-Harris Economic Blueprint. The 58-page document showcases a five-part plan that will build on “historic legislative successes” and “executive actions” that the administration claims have rebuilt the economy “now and for years ahead.” But a close reading of the self-promotional Sept. 9, 2022, blueprint reveals that, like the American Rescue Plan Act, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, and the misnamed Inflation Reduction Act, the policies promoted in the Economic Blueprint will increase spending and regulation, make the government larger and more intrusive, and consolidate power in the hands of federal bureaucrats at the expense of state autonomy.

The United States should be absolutely booming right now. The US just came out of the pandemic and is now in a recession, inflation is sky high and gas prices are again increasing. Eggs are at 40% higher under this administration and most groceries are 15-30% higher because of these ridiculous handouts Democrats keep giving trying to buy votes! This insanity when a recession has officially started is like lighting a fire and standing in the middle of it while tipping a can of gas onto yourself. That’s what democrats are doing right now to this situation.

The Biden administration has held off on a request from Ukraine to provide longer-range missiles over fears it could provoke a dangerous response from Russia, with senior Pentagon officials opposed to the idea, according to two military officials. Defense officials who have advised against supplying Ukraine with the longer-range missiles, known as Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMs), have voiced concerns that the missiles could be used against targets inside Russian territory and potentially set off a wider war with Russia
