7. SEC football game attendance requirements announced

The Southeastern Conference has announced the guidelines that will be enforced for anyone planning to attend college football games in the fall. Local and state guidelines will determine capacity, so in Alabama, the outdoor venues have to “limit occupancy as required to comply with the social distance requirements.”
At the games, masks will be required for everyone. Food and drinks will still be sold but social distancing will be required while waiting in line and there will be barriers put up. Every location also has to have a protocol for sanitation and what to do if someone starts showing symptoms, but each school will determine if they’ll allow tailgating.

6. USPS won’t steal the election after all

Postmaster General Louis DeJoy has announced the decision to halt changes that were being made to the U.S. Postal Service until after the general election on November 3, making the decision after 20 states threatened legal challenges.
This decision means that no processing facilities will be closed, hours will remain the same, processing equipment won’t be removed, and blue collection boxes won’t be removed. DeJoy has maintained that these decisions were previously made only to improve the financial situation of the U.S. Postal Service.

5. Birmingham has to make budget cuts

Birmingham Mayor Randall Woodfin has started announcing Birmingham’s upcoming budget and some of the cuts that will have to be made, mainly due to the city bringing in $63 million less than expected due to the coronavirus.
There are pay cuts and furloughs planned for 500 employees, which could range from 3-10% of a pay cut. Woodfin will receive a 10% pay cut, 447 vacant positions will be eliminated, there will be a voluntary early retirement for employees who qualify, and holiday pay will be eliminated for nine out of 12 holidays observed by the city.

4. Trump will be impeached if he wins reelection

Former Auburn football coach and 2020 U.S. Senate candidate Tommy Tuberville has said that if President Donald Trump wins reelection, but Republicans lose majority in the U.S. Senate, Trump will be impeached almost immediately.
Speaking to the Madison County Men’s Republican Club, Tuberville said that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) told him that if they don’t win back the seat in Alabama, they’re going to lose majority in the Senate. Tuberville added that McConnell is expecting Trump to be impeached within three months if Democrats hold the majority. Tuberville continued that this election is “about keeping our values, our moral values that we have in this county.”

3. Senate Republicans issue report that finds no collusion

As the media and their Democrats continue to ignore actual attempts to illegally interfere in the 2016 presidential election, they are using the release of a Senate Intel Committee report to pretend that there was in fact collusion between the Russians and the Trump campaign, even though the report finds the opposite, just like the Mueller report did.
While the report did find Trump was happy about WikiLeaks, Trump’s former campaign chairman Paul Manafort had ties to people linked to the Russian government and Russians wanted to manipulate Trump’s transition team. The report found no collusion and noted that the FBI failed to operate appropriately in their targeting of the Trump campaign and transition team.

2. Auburn to start enforcing the mask mandate

After Tuscaloosa had a weekend of issuing citations for violating the mask mandate, the Auburn Police Division has said that they plan to enforce the Safer at Home Health Order as there’s been an “increase in a lack of compliance.”
They’ve received reports of people not following the health order, so they plan to begin issuing citations to those who don’t follow the mandate. The police department is also reminding people and businesses that masks are required, people should maintain their distance, and capacity needs to allow for distancing.

1. Democrats continue their convention where they pretend they are Republicans

Former Vice President Joe Biden was nominated to be the Democratic Party’s nominee for President of the United States after a slew of “life-long Republicans” from the political establishment continued their parade of support for the nominee as the media attempts to brand him a “moderate.” Party members and former candidates for office let everyone know that once Biden is elected, then they can enact their real agenda.
After former Ohio Governor John Kasich (R), GOP tech CEOs, a failed New Jersey gubernatorial candidate and a former congresswoman from New York took the stage on Monday, Tuesday saw former Secretary of State Colin Powell endorse his fourth Democratic presidential candidate in a row, a video touting the mutual admiration of Biden and former U.S. Senator John McCain (R-AZ) and a quasi-endorsement by McCain’s widow, Cindy.
