Kevin Knows He's Miserable Now

The House of Representatives adjourned for a second day without electing a new speaker, after Rep. Kevin McCarthy failed to convince 20 of his Republican colleagues to support his bid. He lost another three rounds of voting Wednesday, leaving no indication when the stalemate will end.

California Governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency amid a potentially catastrophic storm that’s bearing down on the Golden State. It's now the third atmospheric river to hit the state in just two weeks.

And in headlines: the FDA finalized a rule change that will make abortion pills more accessible, the organizer of the "Varsity Blues" college admissions cheating scandal was sentenced to federal prison, and Salesforce said it would lay off about 10% of its staff.
