"I'm keeping my options open," Franken said in a new interview with The Republican when asked about running for office again.

In the new interview with The Republican, Franken said, "I wanted due process" but, he argued, the Democratic majority "wouldn't give it to me, so it was impossible." At the time, Chuck Schumer, the majority leader, reportedly urged Franken to step down amid the increasing allegations.

Not sure if the article is behind a paywall. This should give you a rough idea to what he is thinking.

Derek Chauvin placed in handcuffs after the jury found him guilty on three counts in the murder of George Floyd — Serial suffocator.

Looks as if Chauvin is a serial suffocator.

Turns out he's done this before, back in 2017.

Late last year, as a team of Minnesota state prosecutors was preparing for the trial that would ultimately convict former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin of murdering George Floyd, they received a series of videos depicting Chauvin's handling of another case three years earlier that by their own description shocked them.

Finally, help is on the way for SS recipients!

Beginning April 7th stim. checks will start being deposited into SS accounts.

I feel a smile starting to form on this craggy face.

Not sure how this will work for many of us who did not receive the $600 prior to the $1,400.00. But at least it puts an account to the many who would have had to file a 2020 return in order to claim it.

"Uh, Mitch...? Mitch...? Shouldn't we - you know, move, or do something?"

McConnell planning an 'escape hatch' in case he leaves Senate before term expires, report says

McConnell has a list of potential successors in case he steps down, according to The Intercept.

The governor currently has the ability to independently pick a successor for any Senate vacancy.

The GOP minority leader is reportedly pushing to change Kentucky state law to give parties control.

Visit the Business section of Insider for more stories.

When former President Donald Trump lost his reelection bid, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky became the most powerful Republican in Washington DC.

With the upper chamber evenly split between 50 Democrats and 50 Republicans, 79-year-old McConnell, who was reelected to his seventh term last year, will most certainly fight hard to regain the majority in 2022.

However, McConnell, always a tactician, has created a list of successors in case he doesn't serve out his full term, which will expire in January 2027, according to The Intercept.
