🏛 Democrats are planning to make abortion rights a huge midterm issue if the Supreme Court nixes or weakens Roe v. Wade
Pro-choice groups say that outrage over losing the nearly 50-year right enshrined in Roe v. Wade, which guarantees women the right to an abortion until about 23 weeks of pregnancy, would galvanize voters during an election cycle in which Democrats face steep odds of keeping control of Congress.
The prospect of losing federal protection for abortion rights has awakened Democrats to the need to take state-level races more seriously.
Pro-choice groups that also organized during elections, including Planned Parenthood and NARAL, point to gubernatorial and attorney general races in Texas and Georgia as potentially game-changing contests where electing a Democrat could stave off further erosion of abortion access in those GOP-controlled states.

💵 Cryptocurrency payments are accepted the most by the travel industry, adoption study shows
Of the top 10 crypto-friendly industries, travel is number one, with 11.5% of companies in that sector accepting digital assets. The travel sector has been "quick to recognize" the growing demand for crypto-payment availability, with Expedia leading the way.
Meanwhile, fast-food chains including Burger King, as well as institutions of higher education, and sports teams are among other large companies and entities acting as early adopters of cryptocurrencies. McDonald's is reportedly working on it in El Salvador – the first country to adopt bitcoin as legal tender – and fast food chicken chain KFC has been experimenting in Canada.
In US professional sports, the Dallas Mavericks, Miami Dolphins, San Jose Earthquakes in soccer, and the San Jose Sharks in hockey include crypto as payment options.

Biden the gaffe machine has messed up again. We all remember how Biden has already promoted Harris as the President of the United States more than once. This time he went further and , having made a reservation, confused Harris with his wife, calling her the first lady.
🧐 Well, may be he, to paraphrase the saying, thinks "two wives are better than one"?
