Today’s Headlines: Last night's debate between President Biden and Donald Trump was highly anticipated. Biden appeared raspy and aged, while Trump seemed slightly more composed than usual. However, there was no live fact-checking, leaving many of Trump's claims unchecked, such as blaming January 6th on Nancy Pelosi and denying derogatory remarks about fallen soldiers. An exchange about their golf swings added little substance to the debate. The Supreme Court's leaked EMTALA opinion was confirmed to be purposeful and final, deferring to a lower court decision that allows emergency abortions in Idaho for now. This means that, despite the ruling, doctors in Idaho will likely remain hesitant to provide care due to legal uncertainties. Oklahoma's state superintendent Ryan Walters mandated that all public schools in the state teach the Bible, incorporating it into the curriculum for grades 5 through 12. Walters claimed the Bible is essential for understanding American history and Western civilization, though his interpretation and implementation of this mandate remain unclear. Former Uvalde school district police chief Pete Arredondo was indicted on 10 counts of abandoning or endangering a child due to the mishandled response to the 2022 school shooting at Robb Elementary School. Despite posting bail, his indictment marks a rare application of the child endangerment statute, reflecting the unprecedented nature of law enforcement's inaction during the shooting.
