As the United States marks 22 years since the 9/11 attacks, one non-profit is helping first responders heal now, all these years later. The Washington Examiner spoke with Nick Davis, co-founder of 22Zero, to talk about how the organization has helped these heroes to be able to overcome their trauma.

Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) took aim at Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) on Sunday, calling him “fundamentally authoritarian” but stating he believes former President Donald Trump is a greater threat to democracy.
“I worry about democracy,” Newsom said Sunday on NBC’s Meet the Press. “I worry about the 'fetishness' for autocracy that we’re seeing not just from Trump, but around the world, and notably across this country.”

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) does not anticipate an impeachment of President Joe Biden will happen anytime soon.
Mace appeared on Fox News's Sunday Morning Futures to share her insight as Congress is entering its second week back in session and several impeachment inquiries have begun against Biden. According to Mace, should the president be suspected of bribery, that is an impeachable offense. But she shared her pessimism about this likelihood.
