7. Alabama A&M and Alabama State have finally both signed an agreement to keep the Magic City Classic going for four more years. This rivalry has been going on for 81 years and is considered one of the biggest HBCU games.
6. Three repeat Alabama drug dealers have their sentences commuted by President Joe Biden. Scottie LaDon Dixon got a second sentencing cut from an administration Biden is a part of after President Barack Obama cut his sentence from life in prison to 221 months with 10 years of supervised relief in 2016
5. U.S. Rep. Gary Palmer (R-Hoover) is praising the job done by Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.). During a Fox News podcast, Palmer said, “It’s a bottom up leadership style. When you see the bills that are getting introduced, they’re starting in subcommittee and then going to the full committee and then going to the rules committee and then going to the floor. That’s regular order. You didn’t have that before under Pelosi.”
4. Democrats have relied on courts to overturn any congressional districts that they feel are unfavorable to them. Unfortunately, for them, state-level success for the GOP in recent years seems to be making that a little harder. The North Carolina Supreme Court just handed the state’s GOP a victory that could see them pick up 4 congressional seats.
3. The White House Correspondents Dinner, in all of its obnoxious navel-gazing glory, took place this weekend. President Joe Biden took shots at Tucker Carlson and Fox News, while telling the truth with one joke where he summed up his term, “I’ll talk for 10 minutes, take zero questions and cheerfully walk away.”
2. An illegal immigrant, who had been deported five times, committed a mass shooting on other illegal immigrants in Texas and is currently on the loose. Meanwhile, the head of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas continues making excuses about a border crisis that is about to get way worse and he thinks the solution is to let more people in.
1. Alabama is up next: A bill has been filed that would stop obscene drag performances that are sexual in nature from including children in their acts or as viewers. Democrats have an issue with this because they have decided that your kids need to see drag shows, with morbidly obese men in sequined-covered women’s clothing gyrating to vulgar music or they will grow up to be intolerant monsters.
