But the government said in a recent court filing that the order has nothing to do with election data.

Democrats elected Patty Murray as Senate president pro tempore, making her 3rd in line to the presidency. "Majority Leader Schumer nominated Sen. Patty Murray and the Democratic caucus unanimously selected her to become the President Pro-Tem in the 118th Congress," a source in the caucus room told Insider. The position puts her third in line to the presidency, behind the vice president and the speaker of the House. Come January, that would have been 89-year-old Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California, who took office just a couple of months before Murray in 1992. "You were asked about it over the break, and you put out a statement saying that you had no intention of running for it," an aide walking with the senator told Feinstein when approached by Insider.

In 2019, the e-commerce giant also gave its Prime members the option to pick a specific delivery date. The feature refines the retailer’s previous three- to five-day shipping window, said Shivi Shankaran, the company’s chief operating officer. “Sometimes they want it really, really fast, or they want it really, really scheduled,” Mr. Gorlin said.

"The White Lotus" season two was renewed a few days before the season one finale in August 2021.
