7. of Offers As if making a first cash purchase offer to buy the Birmingham-Southern College campus from Alabama A&M University wasn't enough, Alabama A&M's vice president for government relations, Shannon Reeves, said the university plans to make a second cash purchase offer this month to buy the college's now-closed hilltop campus. The goal of the second offer is to eliminate all of BSC's debt. “We're going to get the property debt-free, clean and unencumbered,” Reeves said.

6. Some have cited persecuted former President Donald Trump and Jesus Christ, Cuba and Russia as examples, while others, like Rep. Dan Bishop (R.N.C.), black Bishop called past incidents in Alabama where black men were discriminated against simply because they were black an “injustice,” saying, “It's as bad as Alabama in 1950. It's the same thing that happened in New York. So it's fundamentally injustice, and anyone who wants to attack me for saying that can attack me all they want.”

Five. Hugh Culverhouse Jr., a major donor to the University of Alabama, Florida developer and supporter of presidential candidate Ron DeSantis, announced he was donating $500,000 to former President Donald Trump's campaign and criticized the “politically motivated” trial that led to Trump's recent conviction in New York. While not a supporter of Trump or President Joe Biden, Culverhouse argued that the U.S. justice system should remain fair and should not be used as a political tool to influence elections, a sign that politically motivated prosecutions are frustrating people who are not yet enamoured with the former president.

Four. Testimony has shown that Hunter Biden was intoxicated when he purchased a gun to take on drug dealers. slept Biden crashed his car while smoking crack cocaine and tried to expose his own long-term drug addiction by getting his brother's widow addicted to crack cocaine, which prosecutors allege continued when he bought a firearm in October 2018. This was all part of a newsworthy day in court that included talk of messages sent from Biden's famous laptop, and questions about laptop tampering, but Judge Mary Ellen Noreika limited the questioning, refusing to take up the Russian conspiracy theory in court.

3. Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) Claim Statements that Russian President Vladimir Putin “doesn't want Ukraine” and “has enough land” seem at odds with modern history and with Putin's own statements before the 2022 invasion, in which he emphasized the importance of Ukraine to Russia and expressed regret over the historic cession of Ukrainian territory. Tuberville's comments, made during an appearance on Steve Bannon's “War Room,” rightly criticized the Biden administration's diplomacy, suggesting that a summit with Putin should have taken place earlier in the conflict and criticized the U.S.' open-checkbook policy on the issue.

2. Auto manufacturing is expanding in Alabama, and Governor Kay Ivey expressed her excitement, saying, “Toyota has been a key partner in Alabama's growing auto industry for more than 20 years, and has undertaken multiple expansions to increase the production capacity and talented workforce at our Huntsville plant.” The new investment project will add a production line for drivetrain products, creating more than 350 new jobs and $282 million in investment, further strengthening Toyota Alabama's role as North America's largest engine producer. This comes after the United Auto Workers failed in their attempt to unionize the Mercedes-Benz plant in Vance.

1. Following President Joe Biden's announcement of new executive orders to address the border crisis, Alabama's Republican delegation criticized the White House, with Sen. Katie Britt (R-Montgomery) calling it a “smackdown” and Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) calling it a “show show.” Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Saxe) described it as “Biden's grand reelection plan,” Rep. Barry Moore (R-Enterprise) dismissed it as “election season propaganda,” and Rep. Robert Aderholt (R-Haleyville) pointed to the timing, emphasizing that the measures were taken “five months after Election Day.”
