The U.S. intelligence community will seek to fully integrate the effects of climate change into the analysis and assessments it offers policymakers, Director of National intelligence Avril Haines said Thursday, calling the varied, intersecting and intensifying consequences of climate-related phenomena an urgent national security threat. For the intelligence community, climate change is both a near-term and a long-term threat that will define the next generation, Haines said during a session of the Biden administration s virtual Summit on Climate.

Washington mdash; House Republicans voted Wednesday morning to reverse an internal ban on earmarks, which allow lawmakers to direct funding in spending legislation to pet projects, according to a Republican familiar with the vote.

Washington ndash; Steven Bannon, the former chief White House strategist for Donald Trump who has been charged with criminal contempt of Congress, issued a court filing Friday that argues he s not guilty because he was heeding the advice of his lawyers and did not know he was committing a crime.The charges stem from his refusal to testify and provide documents to the House committee investigating the January 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol.

There may be individual millionaires who pay taxes at rates lower than middle-income workers.
