TikTok users are reveling in how a Stop & Shop self-checkout pronounces "organic bananas." AdvertisementThe robotic voice of a Stop & Shop self-checkout has the internet cracking up in how it pronounces "organic bananas." The company even commented on the video, saying: "We just feel really passionately about ~organic bananas~." The comments on the organic bananas video spurred the user to post more TikToks of the self-checkout pronouncing different products.

California's Senate is considering a bill that would change how retailers run self-checkout. The rule would prohibit retailers from offering self-checkout unless several conditions are met. AdvertisementThe California legislature is considering a proposal that would bring significant changes to the self-checkout lanes in the state. Self-checkout lanes would be limited to 10 items or fewer. A single worker may only be assigned to monitor two self-checkout stations, and they must have no other responsibilities during that time.

☆ Adam Schiff gambled on elevating a Republican Dodgers legend to close out fellow Democrat Katie Porter in California's Senate race. It worked.
  + stars: | 2024-03-06 | by ( Brent D. Griffiths | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +1 min
Rep. Adam Schiff is projected to be the top Democrat in the running to replace Sen. Dianne Feinstein. The real headline is that Schiff was able to use a shrewd strategy to close out other Democrats. As a result, Schiff's other opponent will be Dodgers legend Steve Garvey. NBC News projects Schiff to be the top Democrat coming out of Tuesday's California dual Senate primaries. Schiff's strategy was to elevate Garvey as a Trump conservative in the overwhelmingly Democratic state, thus foreclosing fellow Rep. Katie Porter from making it to the general election.

As a result, Tuesday's outcomes in the presidential primaries are less about predicting who will be the eventual nominee, and more about gauging general election momentum eight months out from November. President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump hold commanding leads in the polls of their parties' voters. Perhaps even more exciting than the presidential primaries are several competitive down-ballot races with major implications for national politics. Primaries in California's Senate race and North Carolina's gubernatorial contest are two that merit special attention. In California, the battle to fill the late Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein's seat is already the most expensive Senate race in the state's history.

☆ California Gov. Gavin Newsom chooses Laphonza Butler to fill Dianne Feinstein's Senate seat

Gavin Newsom has chosen Laphonza Butler, the president of EMILY's List, to fill the seat of the late Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the governor's office confirmed to NBC News. Feinstein, the longest-serving woman in the Senate, died Thursday at the age of 90. Newsom, a Democrat, had provided substantial clues in recent months about how he'd choose Feinstein's replacement, if her seat were to become vacant. He had previously said that he would appoint a Black woman if either of California's Senate seats opened up. Butler, however, will not have any constraints on her future plans and will be free to run for the seat if she chooses.

☆ U.S. House votes down Republican motion to censure Democrat Adam Schiff
  + stars: | 2023-06-14 | by ( Moira Warburton | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
WASHINGTON, June 14 (Reuters) - The U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday rejected a Republican effort to censure Representative Adam Schiff, a Democrat who played a leading role in the first impeachment of then-President Donald Trump in 2019. The Republican-controlled chamber defeated the motion by a vote of 225 to 196, with 20 Republicans joining 205 Democrats in opposition. Schiff is running for California's Senate seat in 2024 and sent a fundraising email based on Wednesday's censure move. Republican Representative Paul Gosar was censured in 2021 after he posted a cartoon video that showed him killing Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the first time the censure had been used in a decade. In a letter to Democratic colleagues, Schiff called the motion "not only a terrible misuse of House precedent and resources, but a clear attack on our constitutional system of checks and balances."

☆ Pelosi backs Schiff in California Senate race
  + stars: | 2023-02-02 | by ( Bridget Bowman | Bridget Bowman Is A Deputy Editor For Nbc'S Political Unit. | ) www.nbcnews.com   time to read: +1 min
Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced Thursday she is backing Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff in California's Senate race — if Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein decides not to run for re-election. But that hasn't stopped other Democrats, including Schiff and Rep. Katie Porter, from jumping into the race. Schiff has been a staunch Pelosi ally, and the former speaker tapped him to lead the team managing former President Donald Trump's first impeachment. And Schiff and Porter may not be the only House members who decide to run for Senate. Schiff responded to the endorsement, writing on Twitter that Pelosi "has been a friend and mentor throughout my time in Congress."
