WASHINGTON — The Senate returns to Washington as all eyes are on Republican Sens. Mitt Romney of Utah and Chuck Grassley of Iowa for clues to whether they will support any effort to approve a Supreme Court justice before November's election. President Donald Trump and Majority Leader Mitch McConnell are moving quickly to set up a nominee, confirmation hearings and a vote to replace the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Democrats oppose a Trump appointment so close to an election. Trump's Democratic rival, Joe Biden, is urging other Republican senators to join Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine in opposing a confirmation vote before the race is decided.In an interview on Monday, Trump said he thought that both Murkowski and Collins would be "badly hurt" for choosing not to vote for a Supreme Court justice nominee.The Republican caucus currently holds a 53-47 voting edge in the Senate. With Murkowski and Collins promising not to confirm, the GOP can only afford to lose two more Senate votes and still confirm a Supreme Court justice. Vice President Mike Pence would hold the tiebreaker in the event of a 50-50 vote, and would likely vote to confirm a Trump-appointed justice. 1213

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has directed the Office of Management and Budget to crack down on federal agencies’ anti-racism training sessions, calling them “divisive, anti-American propaganda.” OMB director Russell Vought, in a letter to executive branch agencies, has directed them to identify spending related to any training on “critical race theory,” “white privilege” or any other material that teaches or suggests that the United States or any race or ethnicity is “inherently racist or evil.” The memo comes as the nation has faced a reckoning this summer over racial injustice in policing and other spheres of American life. 653

WASHINGTON — House Democrats will investigate whether Postmaster General Louis DeJoy encouraged employees at his business to contribute to Republican candidates and then reimbursed them in the guise of bonuses, a violation of campaign finance laws. Rep. Carolyn Maloney, House Oversight Committee chair, announced the investigation Tuesday. The Washington Post reports that five people who worked for DeJoy’s former business were urged to write checks and attend fundraisers at his North Carolina mansion. Two former employees said DeJoy would give bigger bonuses to reimburse them. It’s not illegal to encourage employees to contribute to candidates but it is illegal to reimburse them as a way of avoiding federal campaign contribution limits. 753

VISTA, Calif. (KGTV) - Several schools in the Vista Unified School District are returning back to virtual learning for two weeks after positive COVID-19 cases were identified.The district reopened for in-person learning at normal capacity, also known as Vista Classic, on October 20th. According to the district’s website, 17 cases have been reported since October 20th.District Superintendent, Dr. Matt Doyle, said Vista Classic and Vista Virtual were designed to work together so that there is the flexibility to move back and forth.Mission Vista High School, Vista High School, Madison Middle School, Roosevelt Middle School, and Rancho Minerva Middle School are also back to Vista Virtual due to positive cases.A class of 28 students and one teacher at T.H.E. Learning Academy Elementary school is also under quarantine after one positive case was reported.Last week the school unanimously approved a plan that would close down some middle and high schools for two weeks when positive cases are reported.The closures would happen if one school has two or more positive cases at the whole time, the entire school would switch back to Vista Virtual for two weeks. If three secondary schools have one positive case each, all three will return to Vista Virtual for two weeks.“I think two is tough; that doesn’t give us a lot of confidence that it won’t close down again,” said Dolly Goulart, a parent of a Mission Vista High School student who has been back to virtual learning.“I do appreciate that they’re doing trying to get classic families back in. They gave families a choice over the summer.”Goulart said her son’s transition back to Vista Virtual went smoothly.“From my perspective, it seemed perfectly seamless. He did fine pivoting back,” said Goulart. “He’s about a week into his two-week virtual pivot.”“We meet regularly with representatives from the S.D. Health and Human Services Department to discuss our health and safety measures and make adjustments as appropriate,” said Dr. Doyle in an email to A.B.C. 10News.Doyle said in just weeks, a high volume COVID-19 testing center would open in Vista Unified.Before school reopened, the district notified parents that they couldn’t guarantee that students would be six feet apart in class.The district’s website stated, “It is important to note that while many health and safety precautions are in place for the Vista Classic learning model, all classrooms will have the normal amount of students enrolled. This means that while we will be following social distancing procedures, student seating arrangements will be less than six feet apart.”There have been mixed reactions to the reopening plan from teachers and parents; some like Goulart are happy with the plan, while others call for revisions.“Why are we allowing kids not to social distance within our classrooms?” asked Keri Avila, the Vista Teachers Association president. “When we talk about keeping businesses open, when we talk about returning to some sort of normal, this takes that all away.”Avila said, in some cases, students are in crowded classrooms without enough safety measures in place.She’s calling on the district to make changes to the current reopening plan so that schools can remain open.“We hope to work with our district to create a system to keep our schools open, not one that keeps pivoting back to virtual,” said Avila.Two positive COVID-19 cases have also been reported at Alta Vista High School, but ABC 10News has not been able to confirm if the school has closed down. 3527

VISTA (CNS) - A man who fatally beat his cousin in the front yard of an Oceanside home was convicted Thursday of second-degree murder.Joel Cardona, 37, was found guilty for the Aug. 2, 2018, death of Nestor Jurado, 37, following a trial that began last week at the Vista courthouse. A sentencing date has not yet been set, but the second-degree murder conviction means Cardona faces at least 15 years to life in state prison.Cardona was arrested on the morning of Aug. 2 during a tussle with Jurado in front of a home on Arthur Avenue, according to police and prosecutors. Jurado was unconscious by the time officers arrived and arrested Cardona, and medics tried in vain to revive him before pronouncing him dead at the scene.RELATED: Oceanside Police: Man dies after fistfight with relativeThe motive for the fight and subsequent killing was unclear.A Feb. 18 court date was set, during which Cardona's prior convictions will be reviewed, potentially affecting his sentence. 984
