“This reauthorization of Section 702 gives the United States the authority to continue to collect foreign intelligence information about non-U.S. Persons located outside the United States, while at the same time codifying important reforms the Justice Department has adopted to ensure the protection of Americans’ privacy and civil liberties,” Garland said in a statement Saturday. Though the spy program was technically set to expire at midnight, the Biden administration had said it expected its authority to collect intelligence to remain operational for at least another year, thanks to an opinion this month from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, which receives surveillance applications.

"I think it's a valid point,” Humphrey said. “While it's done in a bit of a sarcastic nature, I think it brings validity to how insane this is." In previous years as a representative, Humphrey authored several bills related to law enforcement, crimes and punishment and prison reform. On January 18th, TikToker @woke_karen then posted a video explaining the bill, garnering thousands of views in a week. Also around that time, TikTok influencer @erininthemorn uploaded a video about Bill 3084, saying it's "the most ridiculous bill" she's ever read. Besides news outlets reporting on the bill, many netizens had a field day making fun of Rep. Justin Humphrey and Oklahoma House Bill 3084, especially the furry community, who openly stated their repulsion towards the proposed law.

Biden in August requested more than $20 billion to keep aid flowing into Ukraine, but the money was stripped out of a must-pass spending bill even as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky traveled to Washington to make a personal plea for continued U.S. backing. At the time, the House was in chaos because the Republican majority had been unable to select a speaker to replace Rep. Kevin McCarthy of Bakersfield, who had been removed more than two weeks earlier. McCarthy’s ouster by the GOP’s far right came after he agreed earlier to allow federal spending levels that many far-right House Republicans disagreed with and wanted undone. Biden, the day after returning from a whirlwind trip to Tel Aviv following the Hamas-led Oct. 7 attack on Israel, used a rare prime time address to make his pitch for the supplemental funding. The White House maneuvering to win additional funding for Ukraine started months earlier. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell suggested that the delay in funding by his fellow Republicans could have a lasting impact on Ukraine’s hopes of winning the war.

The lawmakers had demanded that Schumer allow votes on amendments to the legislation that would seek to address what they see as civil liberty loopholes in the bill. In the end, Schumer was able to cut a deal that would allow critics to receive floor votes on their amendments in exchange for speeding up the process for passage. But despite the Biden administration’s urging and classified briefings to senators last week on the crucial role they say the spy program plays in protecting national security, a group of progressive and conservative lawmakers had refused to accept the version of the bill the House sent over earlier.

(E) Be considered an officer of a school district under the provisions of §6-6-7 of this code and removal from office shall be in accordance with the provisions of that section. Talks about Rep. Justin Humphrey, R-Lane, and “furries” in Oklahoma are on the rise after the legislator authored a bill targeting students in Oklahoma schools who purport to be imaginary animals. For example, on January 17th, X user @ZeppelinCoyote (a furry) posted several photos of themselves in their fursuit during high school, writing, "Oklahoma is attempting to codify into law that furries can be removed from school using animal control." Humphrey gave a brief interview for YouTuber David Chasanov on January 17th in which he voiced his reasoning for the bill, saying he doesn't want to see kids using "litter boxes" as cat furries and that allowing them to “pretend to be animals” at school would be a distraction to other students. One Oklahoma lawmaker, Rep. Justin Humphrey, R-Lane, decided to file a bill targeting "furries," or people in a subculture interested in anthropomorphic animal characters, in Oklahoma schools. The hostel once housed college students whose parents died in the 1994 genocide, the most horrific period in this African nation’s history, when an estimated 800,000 Tutsis were killed by extremist Hutus in massacres that lasted over 100 days.

(8) Have no requirements that would exclude any child from enrollment who would not be excluded at a noncharter public school. House Bill 3084 would ban students who "purport to be an imaginary animal or animal species, or who engage in anthropomorphic behavior commonly referred to as 'furries'" from participating in school curriculum or activities. Humphrey’s anti-furries bill, formally titled "Oklahoma House Bill 3084," was written on December 6th and proposes that "students who purport to be an imaginary animal or animal species, or who engage in anthropomorphic behavior commonly referred to as furries at school shall not be allowed to participate in school curriculum or activities." Humphrey's bill, House Bill 3084, would ban "students who purport to be an imaginary animal or animal species, or who engage in anthropomorphic behavior commonly referred to as furries at school" from participating in class and school activities. Oklahoma lawmakers are preparing to start 2024's legislative sessions by sending thousands of bills in the hopes of adding new laws, but most of them will never come close to getting approved. One representative, Rep. Justin Humphrey, has been featured in news headlines nationwide for an unusual bill targeting furries in schools, a subculture interested in anthropomorphic animal characters.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) delayed a vote on the supplemental aid package for months as members of his party’s far right wing, including Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Thomas Massie of Kentucky, threatened to move to oust him if he allowed a vote to send more assistance to Ukraine. Tucked into the measure is a provision that gives TikTok’s Beijing-based parent company, ByteDance, nine months to sell it or face a nationwide prohibition in the United States. The president can grant a one-time extension of 90 days, bringing the timeline to sell to one year, if he certifies that there’s a path to divestiture and “significant progress” toward executing it.
