Welcome to Monday, November 1st, gummy bears and gummy worms...
As vax mandates receive pushback nationwide, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis wants to award a $5,000 bonus to any law enforcement official who relocates to Florida.
During an appearance on Fox News' Sunday Morning Futures, DeSantis addressed cops around the country:
"If you're not being treated well, we'll treat you better here, you can fill important needs for us, and we'll compensate you as a result."
In Biden's CNN Townhall, he was supportive of firing first-responders who refuse to get vaccinated against COVID-19. Thousands of police officers in major cities have been defying vaccine requirements.

Roughly 124,000 people were evacuated from Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul, Afghanistan ([link removed]) , by the U.S. and its coalition partners between August 14th when the Taliban completed its bid to topple the Afghan government ([link removed]) and August 30th when the U.S. concluded its military evacuation from Kabul ([link removed]) . About half were evacuated by the U.S. while the rest were evacuated by coalition partner nations.
On October 22nd, State Dept. officials told congressional staff that there were still 363 American citizens in Afghanistan, including 176 who want to leave.

** Gen-X
------------------------------------------------------------
A U.S. Navy veteran and intersex activist has received the first gender-neutral passport in America.

Dana Zzyym, who identifies as non-binary and uses gender-neutral pronouns, said the new passport is “liberating.”
With an “X” designation, the symbol is meant to provide an option for people who do not identify as either male or female - often nonbinary, intersex, and gender-nonconforming people.
The State Department expects to offer the option more broadly next year following necessary computer system updates.
The U.S. joins at least 15 countries that already offer a third gender option on passports, including India, Argentina, the Netherlands, Canada, and Germany.
