“Lawmakers in the House of Representatives on Monday passed a standalone bill that would raise the direct payment amounts distributed to American households under new COVID-19 relief legislation to $2,000, from $600. The measure – supported by President Trump and Democrats – was approved by a margin of 275 to 134. It will be sent to the Senate for approval where it faces slimmer chances in the Republican-controlled chamber.” https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/house-passes-2000-stimulus-payment-bill?fbclid=IwAR2e3o13GCqlNdo2twpDSflx3vKOmgufR5uqZ7LTyQyYVtjW0fRo0NMUJ04

New York: "The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit prevented the enforcement of an executive order that imposed limitations on religious gatherings, which in some ‘hot spots’ had been capped at 10 or 25 persons depending on the local infection rate… The plaintiffs argued that the restrictions infringed on the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment. The court agreed with the argument that the order placed greater restrictions on religious gatherings than secular ones.” https://www.foxnews.com/politics/cuomo-coronavirus-restrictions-court-loss?fbclid=IwAR0PPRi4hRy5T4NOOO7p65ujpVdFYSOJev40WzR7g5YOFdaF3ztI6RJyuPw

“Representative Louis Gohmert (R., Texas) filed a lawsuit against Vice President Mike Pence on Monday, in an attempt to grant Pence the authority to overturn the results of the general elections… Congress will certify the election results on January 6, in a session presided over by the vice president. The Electoral Count Act of 1887 requires the vice president to affirm the winner of the elections, in a largely ceremonial capacity. However, Gohmert’s suit requests a federal judge in Texas to strike down the 1887 law as unconstitutional, and to grant Pence authority to appoint pro-Trump electors. The move would effectively ensure that Trump returns to office despite losing the election to Biden. A number of Republican officials joined the suit, including Kelli Ward, chairwoman of the Arizona Republican Party. The suit is almost certain to fail in court.” https://www.nationalreview.com/news/rep-gohmert-sues-pence-in-last-ditch-attempt-to-overturn-election-results/?fbclid=IwAR0XbGzjMV9KTcO2VOtoasJLkSNuE_-TsO3LRHL6CpBpphWH9DpgmYcxxDA

“Nearly three-quarters of Republicans want President Trump to be the model for the party in the future, far more than anybody in the House or Senate. According to the latest Rasmussen Reports survey, 72% of Republicans believe he is the ‘role model’ for the GOP as it enters the post-election period of reinventing itself. Just 24% believe the ‘average’ House or Senate Republican is a good model.” https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/washington-secrets/its-trumps-party-72-say-he-is-gops-role-model?fbclid=IwAR1UM809zAn1mVG5hg5bPkIMz8aqpRLMicVf_6rIb8vqqryKYSxwb9KAX7s
