The announcement comes after Democrats in the Senate passed a huge $1.9 trillion COVID relief package despite objections from the GOP.

It’s not clear yet how many members of the uniformed forces were involved, but several bodies are currently investigating the conduct of their officers in connection to the riot that left five people dead.

The government's handling of the pandemic, childcare, unemployment relief and other sensitive topics has made it progressively harder for republicans and democrats to work together.

Mega cap stocks like Microsoft, Amazon, and Apple are currently well below their peak, and they are expected to increase in value by between 20% and 25% over the coming few months.
