Desantis's snub, McConnel's health, and Trump's charges

First: Florida governor Ron Desantis does not meet with President Biden after the category 4 Hurricane Idalia hits the southeastern United States.

Next: Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's recent health issues raise speculation of if he will step down, and if so, who might his replacement be.

Then: Former President Trump and several co-defendants plead not guilty in Georgia to charges related to election subversion.

Later: Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) asks his colleagues to vote for the government spending bill to avoid a government shutdown, but many other conservative congresspeople want to use it as leverage to pass far-right policies.
