Do Wisconsin Democrats want a socialist governor? I'm Dave Anthony, Fox News. They are deciding that at the polls today with Francesca Hong, the primary front runner.
She has run on the platform of higher minimum wage, higher taxes for rich people, universal health care, and a one-year moratorium on new data centers. She has flip-flopped on tweets calling to defund or abolish police and criticizing Thanksgiving. She called those bad takes.

Four of Alabama's seven congressional districts hold primary elections today for parties to pick nominees for November's congressional elections.

Why is Dr. Anthony Fauci facing renewed scrutiny over COVID‑19 vaccine recommendations?
And speaking of COVID, ex presidential advisor doctor Anthony Fauci is under more scrutiny over his recommending the vaccine. There have been no red flags. That's what Fauci told CBS in twenty twenty one during the pandemic. Weeks after writing in private text messages made public that he had concerns about the second dose of the COVID vaccine causing inflammation that could cause pregnant women to have miscarriages.
Senate committees held Fauci in contempt of Congress for refusing to answer COVID questions. The doctor's lawyer called that a political stunt, saying Fauci has saved lives. America's listening to Fox News. It is back to court this hour for an accused killer in New York City for another hearing before the first trial Luigi Mangioni faces next month.
The hearing is expected to focus on media access for the New York State trial of Luigi Mangioni. His attorneys question why the proceedings won't be live streamed and say limiting access could violate his right to a public trial. Prosecutors say the defense is trying to spread misinformation. Magioni has pleaded not guilty to both state and federal charges of shooting United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson to death outside a Manhattan hotel in December twenty twenty four.

How is the record July heat across the contiguous United States linked to climate change?
In records dating back to eighteen ninety-five, this July now holds the title of Hottest Month Ever for the Contiguous United States, averaging seventy-six point eighty nine degrees, which beats the Dust Bowl record from July of nineteen thirty-six by an eighth of one degree. Government scientists say the biggest driver of the record heat was higher nighttime lows in NOAA calculations based on 24-hour averages, not just highs or lows. One official noting the heat was so widespread that every one of the lower forty-eight states was at least one degree Fahrenheit warmer than the twentieth century average. Some scientists and peer reviewed studies blame climate change and say hotter nights are a classic sign of human caused changes.
