Blue Times with the Great America Show midday update for Monday June 17th.

Representative Anna Paulina Luna says she hears that Joe Biden will likely be replaced

on the Democratic ticket and that

Kamala Harris is eyeing a run for California governor.

If other rumors are correct, she could run for governor because California

Governor Gavin Newsom appears to be ready to resign as governor

and would be the odds-on favorite to replace Biden on the ticket. The House of Representatives has passed a bill that would reinstitute the draft for young

men between 18 and 26.

The bill passed in the House by a vote of 217 to 199.

Interestingly, the bill includes residents, not simply draft age citizens.

The House bill goes to the Senate where its fate is uncertain, and President Trump has launched a nationwide trend calling for no taxes on tips.

President Trump in Las Vegas last week promised to abolish taxes on tips for a restaurant

and hospitality workers.

He said he will definitely abolish taxes on tips and he'll do it first thing in office. To support Trump when you get a check

write this. Vote Trump, no tax on tips. Let's make it a national movement. Our guest
