U.S. District Judge L. Scott Coogler ruled in Alabama that Congress exceeded its power by putting the tax mandate on states. Thirteen states filed lawsuits against the mandate, in which Coogler ruled in favor of and instructed the Treasury Department not to enforce the provision.

Only once before then, over fiscal years 2020 and 2019, did the pounds of fentanyl seized in a month crack 400 pounds. However, following the June 2020 seizure, the pounds of fentanyl taken by CBP has surpassed the 700-pound mark each month all but twice....

Swept along on a flood tide of curiosity and adulation since her history-making moment in San Francisco, Ferraro herself seemed totally at ease last week. With Mondale offfishing in the Minnesota woods, she demonstrated a striking gift for tart political rhetoric, needling Ronald Reagan on the fairness issue and twitting the Reagan-Bush campaign for its reluctance to let Bush debate her. She turned a shopping expedition to her neighborhood supermarket in Queens into a just-folks discourse on inflation and the threat of foreign competition (cheap imported tomatoes were the case in point), and she displayed a disarming sense of the absurdities of her new celebrity....
