Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, after confirming his support for Todd Blanche as attorney general, was seen at the Capitol on Friday.

Despite some initial delays in the nomination process caused by the so-called ‘YOLO Caucus,’ there seems to be no significant blockages from these outgoing Republicans. The term ‘YOLO’ appears to take on a unique meaning in Washington, D.C.

Meanwhile, severe water shortages have prompted Puerto Rico to start water rationing. Local reporters are experiencing these conditions firsthand, providing updates on the situation.
