Houston family who lost home in 2021 Texas winter storm bracing for another freeze

(Photo courtesy of Darla Mufti) HOUSTON - With the freezing temperatures making its way to Texas, some residents are worried about history repeating itself with another winter storm. And for one Houston family, who lost their home in a fire during 2021's Big Freeze, the deja vu is getting unavoidable. Texas Winter Storm: What the Houston area can expectIt was one of the worst things you can imagine that happened to Darla Mufti and her family in February 2021. At the time, she, her husband, three children, and mother were living in San Antonio during the winter storm dealing with rolling blackouts and camping out in the living room, so when the power finally came back on, things seemed like they were going to be OK. "We all got in the car, and we rode around the neighborhood showing the children the snow, and stuff like that," Mufti said.

NEW YORK - About six weeks after President Donald Trump lost the 2020 election, he told his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani to contact the Department of Homeland Security to ask if the department could lawfully seize voting machines in key swing states, according to a report in The New York Times. Giuliani contacted a top official there, but was rebuffed, the paper says.Shortly before the DHS episode, the President had an Oval Office meeting with Attorney General William Barr, according to The Times. President Trump broached the idea with Barr that the Justice Department, which Barr led, could take machines.

AP source: Pfizer expected to seek FDA authorization of COVID vaccine for kids under 5

COVID-19 vaccine for children 6 months to 5 years old while awaiting data on a three-dose course, aiming to clear the way for the shots as soon as late February, a person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press Monday.The company's application was expected to be submitted as soon as Tuesday.Early Pfizer data has shown the vaccine — which is administered to younger kids at one-tenth the strength of the adult shot — is safe and produces an immune response. But last year Pfizer announced the two-dose shot proved to be less effective at preventing COVID-19 in kids ages 2-5, and regulators encouraged the company to add a third dose to the study on the belief that another dose would boost the vaccine's effectiveness much like booster doses do in adults.Now, the Food and Drug Administration is pushing the company to submit its application based on the two-dose data for potential approval in February, and then to return for additional authorization once it has the data from the third dose study, which is expected in March, the person familiar with the matter said.

Republicans press constitutional amendment term-limiting members of Congress

WASHINGTON - Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, joined five other Republicans on Monday in moving to restrict the number of times members of Congress can be reelected.The legislation revives Cruz's earlier idea for a constitutional amendment on term limits. If ratified, the measure would prevent senators from serving more than two six-year terms and House members from serving more than three two-year terms."Every year, Congress spends billions of dollars on giveaways for the well-connected: Washington insiders get taxpayer money and members of Congress get re-elected, all while the system fails the American people," Cruz said in a press release."It’s no wonder that the vast majority of Americans from every political stripe – Republicans, Democrats, and Independents – overwhelmingly support congressional term limits," he wrote.
