Well, Good Morning!   Let's take a look at what the day has in store for us.   So, let's dig in, shall we? Here's What You Need To Know... Groups of migrants are heading north. Here's what Biden is doing about it so far The Department of Homeland security is now planning to build an intelligence-gathering cell for one specialized purpose: to predict and track the movements of migrant groups to the U.S.    After the incident in Texas last month, where nearly 30,000 Haitians arrived at once, Biden faced harsh criticism both at home and abroad over his treatment of migrants. A rumor was even started that Border Patrol agents on horseback were whipping migrants — agents were only swinging split horse reins, but that didn't stop the barrage of sharp words from other world leaders and DHS officials.   Now, this added element — the intelligence cell — is an attempt to clear the muddy waters. But will it work? The goal is apparently to "institutionalize" the intelligence-gathering systems so future administrations cannot dismantle them, since Trump made so many changes that Biden is having to rebuild the system. The disgraced lawyer Alex Murdaugh was just arrested in Orlando on charges of stealing money from his dead maid's sons Things keep getting worse for disgraced South Carolina attorney Alex Murdaugh. He was just arrested in Orlando, Florida, where he'd been staying at a drug rehab facility for several weeks. He stands accused of stealing money from his late housekeeper that had been bookmarked for her surviving sons. You've likely heard Murdaugh's name a great deal lately, as police are investigating six different cases involving the once-prominent lawyer. He has been plagued by strange tragedies in recent years.    If you need a refresher, here it is. His housekeeper, Gloria Satterfield, apparently "tripped over Alex Murdaugh's dogs" in 2018. However, the death went unreported, and it didn't seem to fit in with a trip-and-fall accidental death, officials said. Then, at the funeral, Murdaugh promised her sons that he'd help secure insurance money for them, but that money was never allotted.    Then, his wife and son were shot to death in June. He is a person of interest in that case. In September, he confessed to enlisting someone to kill him to secure life insurance for his son who is still living. This month, he was sued by his family's law firm, accused of stealing millions.

The rulings, in cases from California and Oklahoma, are a further sign that the court is unwilling to second-guess police officers responding to emergency calls. Both cases resulted in brief, unsigned opinions with no noted dissents.   In the Oklahoma case, a woman called 911 complaining that her ex-husband, Dominic Rollice, was intoxicated in her garage and would not leave. "It's going to get ugly real quick," she said on the call. After three officers responded, Rollice refused to leave the garage and grabbed a hammer. He raised it over his head and took a stance as if he was about to throw it, according to court documents. Two of the officers fired their guns, killing him.   In the California case, police from Union City responded to a 911 call from a 12-year-old girl who said her mother's boyfriend, Ramon Cortesluna, was in the house with a chainsaw. The girl said she was barricaded in a room with her mother and sister, fearing that he intended to hurt them.   Police eventually ordered Cortesluna out of the house but noticed that he had a knife in his pants pocket. An officer put one knee on the left side of the man's back, near the knife, for no more more than eight seconds, according to court documents. Cortesluna sued, saying he suffered emotional and physical pain as a result of excessive force by police. Get INSTANT Access (Free of Charge!)
