😡 Senator Mitt Romney was booed and called a “traitor” during a Utah Republican Party convention in West Valley City.
“Aren't you embarrassed?”, the Utah senator said in response, describing himself as a man “who says what he means”.
The booing only stopped after outgoing party chair Derek Brown called on delegates to “show respect” for the senator, who in turn urged party members to “come together in strength and unity”.

Ahead of Saturday's worldwide International Workers' Day celebrations, Biden called on citizens to mark 1 May as… Loyalty Day.
"This Loyalty Day, I call upon the people of the United States to join in this national observance, display the United States flag and pledge allegiance to the Republic for which it stands", the statement reads.
Anti-communist Loyalty Day was first established in 1921 as “Americanisation Day” during the first “Red Scare” over Bolshevism. It was re-founded by Congress in 1955, near the end of the post-Second World War period of anti-communism and blacklisting led by Senator Joseph McCarthy.

How can they think about Space when there are critical issues whose boundaries will become wider if they are not fixed? Some take this view, but apparently not Kamala Harris, who has recently brought attention to her appointment to the National Space Council on Twitter.

😡 Senator Mitt Romney was booed and called a “traitor” during a Utah Republican Party convention in West Valley City. “Aren't you embarrassed?”, the Utah senator said in response, describing himself as a man “who says what he means”. The booing only stopped…
Senator Susan Collins, who won re-election in Maine last year despite a strong Democratic bid to oust her, said she was dismayed that Romney had been booed by fellow Republicans in his home state of Utah, and defended Cheney, who like Romney has been attacked from within the party for criticizing former President Donald Trump.
"We need to have room for a variety of views," Collins told CNN's "State of the Union" program. "We are not a party that is led by just one person."
