The National Tsunami Warning Center issued a warning after a powerful 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Northern California on Thursday. Nearly 5 million people are under that warning from Davenport, California, up to Douglas/Lane Line, Oregon, the agency said. Long said the reason for that delay — between the earthquake and potential tsunami impacts — is because earthquake waves travel faster. A tsunami wave “in the open ocean tends to travel about as fast as a jet plane flies, whereas earthquake waves travel much faster,” she said. That delay means it is easier for experts to issue tsunami warnings, Long said.

WASHINGTON — House lawmakers are expected to vote Thursday whether to compel the Ethics Committee to release its report on an exhaustive, yearslong investigation into former Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla. Two Democrats — Rep. Sean Casten of Illinois and Steve Cohen of Tennessee — on Tuesday offered resolutions focused on the Gaetz report. But no Republicans have stated they want the report released, arguing that the Ethics Committee only has jurisdiction over sitting members of Congress — not ex-members. House Democrats tried to do the same thing in September 1996, pressing the Ethics Committee to release a report from an outside counsel about its investigation of then-Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga. The Ethics Committee released an initial staff report the following December examining allegations that Boner misused campaign funds, failed to disclose gifts and accepted bribes.

The central issue the justices are considering is whether Tennessee’s law discriminates on the basis of sex. If the court rules it doesn’t, then Tennessee’s law and similar restrictions in 25 other states would most likely stand. Vienna Cavazos, 18, said the court will have blood on its hands if it decides Tennessee's law doesn't discriminate based on sex. Yates said he wanted to attend oral arguments “because I support the trans community.”“This is f------ hate,” he said of Tennessee’s law. Nadine Seiler, 59, said she traveled to the Supreme Court from Maryland to show solidarity with trans people.

☆ My family of 5 lives in a small space. Our decluttering routine includes tidying together every night and seasonal closet clean-outs.

That's why it's important to follow a decluttering routine, including a nightly family clean-up. With a family of five, our mid-century house often feels cramped and cluttered. Over the years, I've noticed the more closely I follow a decluttering regimen, our home feels roomier and more presentable. Although I don't have a natural gift for organizing, following these simple steps keeps our house from becoming an untidy wasteland. Reorganizing spaces can help give a different perspectiveSometimes, the most straightforward step to decluttering is reorganizing a space that has received too much love lately.

CNN —House Republicans voted on Thursday to block a Democrat-led effort to release a long-awaited Ethics Committee report on allegations against former GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida. The House took a step to effectively shut down a resolution from Democrats that would have required the public release of the report. Last month, before Gaetz withdrew, Republicans on the House Ethics Committee voted behind closed doors – and against the will of Democrats on the panel – not to release the results of the investigation at that time. After the vote, Johnson called the ethics report a “moot point” given that Gaetz is no longer a member of Congress. After the first vote, the House voted on a second, similar Democrat-led resolution seeking to compel the release of the report.

WASHINGTON — Republicans will have a narrow majority in the House next year with Democrats flipping one final seat in California, leaving GOP leaders with even less margin for error as they try to advance President-elect Donald Trump’s agenda. Thanks to Gray’s victory, Democrats netted one seat in the House elections, flipping nine Republican-held seats, mainly in blue states, as Republicans flipped eight Democratic-held seats. Democratic campaigns and groups outspent their GOP rivals in the fall, dropping $662 million on ads in House races to Republicans’ $485 million.

His fate will not only depend on whether sufficient Republican senators will defer to the president-elect. That dilemma is especially acute since concern among Republican senators helped derail the Gaetz selection last month. So far, only a small minority of Republican senators have raised questions about Hegseth. But several Republican senators said they hoped such steps would be taken, especially in the case of Hegseth. CNN’s Manu Raju asked North Dakota Republican Sen. Kevin Cramer whether standards had changed since those days.
