SUMMARY: President Joe Biden signed an executive order imposing temporary daily limits on migrants entering through the southern border. This follows a surge in migrants late last year and Republican calls for his impeachment. Mississippi lawmakers criticized the move. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith labeled it an “election year ruse” that won’t resolve key issues like asylum loopholes or “Catch and Release.” Senator Roger Wicker echoed skepticism, alleging Biden neglected border security for over three years. Legal challenges from immigration activists are anticipated. The border’s instability remains a key issue for the upcoming presidential election.

SUMMARY: In a recent “Wellness Wednesday” segment, Dr. Quinn discusses the impact of technology on health. He highlights both benefits, such as increased access to health information, and drawbacks, including reduced physical activity and disrupted sleep patterns due to screen exposure. Dr. Quinn observes that technology often distracts users, leading to time loss and decreased engagement in daily activities. He suggests a technology detox, advocating for 24-hour breaks from social media to foster mental well-being. Additionally, he notes that prolonged screen time can cause eye strain and reduce active learning opportunities, particularly among students using AI for schoolwork.
