Breaking: Biden ends bid for second term in White House as he drops out of his 2024 rematch with Trump –Biden quits amid rising Democrat calls to drop out after a disastrous debate | 21 July 2024 | President [sic] Biden announced Thursday that he will suspend his 2024 re-election campaign amid mounting pressure from his Democratic colleagues on Capitol Hill, top donors and Hollywood stars after a disastrous debate performance last month. The unprecedented announcement came as an increasing number of Democrat lawmakers had begun to publicly call for Biden to step aside and the party’s leadership reportedly was engaged in efforts to convince Biden, 81, he could not win in November’s general election against former President Trump, the 2024 GOP nominee who Biden defeated four years ago to win the White House. Biden was diagnosed with COVID-19 on Wednesday, a revelation that came on the heels of several TV interviews and campaign appearances in which the president insisted he was remaining in the race. But the interviews failed to reassure supporters and provided critics — including those on the left — with further evidence that Biden was no longer up to the job.
 
9th Circuit Court rules AZ residents must have citizenship proof for state voter registration form | 19 July 2024 | The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that Arizona residents must provide proof of citizenship to use the state voter registration form. The court on Thursday granted a partial stay of the U.S. District Court of Arizona’s ruling in May, now allowing part of the state’s 2022 laws on federal-only voters to take effect, Votebeat reported. The temporary stay requires residents who cannot provide proof of U.S. citizenship to use the federal voter registration form, rather than the state voter registration form. Arizona is a state with the unusual situation of bifurcated elections, in which residents who provide proof of U.S. citizenship can vote in all elections while the others may vote only in federal elections, resulting in ballots cast by voters who haven’t proven their U.S. citizenship.
 
Agenda 2030: Huge fears Sadiq Khan is plotting to copy major city with plan to tax driveways | 17 July 2024 | People who pave over their front gardens could be hit with a new fine if a new proposal gets the green light. A report commissioned by the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan has suggested that one way to tackle localised flooding is to slap a charge on those who have no natural run-offs in their gardens such as grass because it’s been used to create driveways. The London Climate Resilience Review (LCRR) has urged Keir Starmer’s new Labour government to consider introducing “stormwater charges.” An additional fee, says the report, could be charged to householders to manage excess flooding in areas with less permeable land. Melbourne in Australia already operates a similar scheme. The report said: “As more people are angered by their neighbours adding to local flood risk, one solution could be charging people based on the surface area of the land they own that is impermeable,” reports MailOnline.
