Walz weighs in on Biden's term when pressed on 'GMA'
The governor was initially asked by "GMA" co-anchor Michael Strahan whether he’d have led the country differently from Biden on any points. His running mate, Vice President Kamala Harris, was not able to identify a decision where she would have gone another way when posed a similar question on “The View” earlier this week. Walz also highlighted that Harris' values haven’t changed, which is something her critics have accused her of doing. And I do think in these positions, whether it be governor or being vice president of the United States, you do need to be careful,” Walz responded.

Trump's campaign requests military aircraft and armored vehicles in response to threats from Iran
The Trump campaign’s requests were outlined in a letter to acting Secret Service director Ronald Rowe Jr. from senior Trump campaign adviser Susie Wiles and obtained by The Associated Press. Iranian hackers have also been charged with stealing information from Trump’s campaign and trying to pass it along to news organizations. In May, prosecutors say, the men charged began trying to penetrate the Trump campaign, successfully breaking into the email accounts of campaign officials and other Trump allies. Trump's campaign has complained that the Biden White House has downplayed the death threats. “This administration spends more time focused on a hack of emails than they do the Iranians who are trying to kill Donald Trump," Trump campaign senior adviser Chris LaCivita told reporters in Pennsylvania last weekend.

"Findings suggest severe COVID-19 infection as a catastrophic component," Dr. Hooman Allayee, the study's principal investigator, told ABC News. "Blood type is known to be associated with heart attack and stroke risk," said Allayee, who is a professor of population and public health sciences at the Keck School of Medicine at the University of Southern California. "If your blood type is A, B or AB, the virus is more likely to infect you and makes these blood cells open to viral entry."

Masonry walls may be sturdier, but mandating them is problematic.
