Susan Collins Laments Roe’s Fall but Doesn’t ‘Regret’ Confirming Kavanaugh
Ms. Collins, a Republican in Maine facing a tough re-election battle, defended her vote to confirm Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh as Democrats look to capitalize on it politically.

Such a long article that can be summarised in "Venezuela is a US's banana republic and there won't be elections any time soon because Trump & friends only care about its natural resources".

Implanted brain-computer interface functionality during nighttime in late-stage amyotrophic lateral sclerosis - Scientific Reports
Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) hold promise as assistive communication technology for people with severe paralysis. Although such BCIs should be available 24/7, feasibility of nocturnal BCI use has not been investigated.
