Advocates for a bipartisan commission argue the approach may help smooth out the differences between the parties. But whether a bipartisan commission is the answer to Social Security's funding woes is the subject of fierce debate. Social Security benefit cuts unpopular, poll showszimmytws | iStock | Getty ImagesA new poll from Social Security Works and Data for Progress of 1,191 likely voters highlights one big concern about that approach — that it would require benefit cuts. 'It has to be done in a bipartisan way'Any changes to Social Security will require bipartisan agreement. "You don't want Social Security to become a partisan issue," said Bill Hoagland, senior vice president at the Bipartisan Policy Center.

Jurors found Chase Neill, 32, of Lawrence, guilty of a single count of threatening a U.S. government official. The judge had Neill give his testimony Thursday as a narrative from the witness stand because he was representing himself. Neill admitted in court that he left the June 5 voicemail and others with more death threats the next day. Hunting told jurors that it was reasonable for LaTurner and his staff to take Neill’s words seriously as threats. “I’m really trying to explain how I interact with God, and it’s a difficult explanation,” Neill told jurors during his testimony Thursday.

House Republican leaders have stocked the oversight panel with partisan bomb-throwers. Many of the new panelists voted to overturn the 2020 election and defied Jan. 6 investigators. Retired Democratic Rep. Carolyn Maloney, who chaired the House Oversight Committee last session, asserted that this new cast of characters were getting into it for the wrong reasons. "The personal vendettas these committees pursue are not a legitimate use of the oversight power. "These are basically the people who own Kevin McCarthy at this point," Bardella told Insider at the Facts First event.

Cu câteva ore înainte, o altă reprezentantă democrată, Bonnie Watson Coleman, anunţase că a fost infectată cu SARS-CoV-2. "Ea crede că a fost expusă în timpul securizării clădirii Capitoliului în urma tulburărilor insurecţionale" miercurea trecută, conform unui comunicat difuzat de biroul său. Medicul Congresului, Brian Monahan, i-a avertizat în weekend pe aleşi că este posibil să fi fost expuşi la virus în timp ce se adăposteau de violenţe. SUA sunt ţara cea mai afectată de pandemia de COVID-19, cu peste 375.000 de decese.
