When do you think we'll stop calling networked handheld computers phones? In the expanse they're always like "hand terminals" and in Star Trek they're just radios but they're "communicators"

Speaker Johnson denies Rev. Jackson family request to lie in honor at U.S. Capitol

U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson has declined a request by Rev. Jesse Jackson’s family to have the civil rights leader lie in honor at the U.S. Capitol. There is still a push for a Capitol viewing and the Congressional Black Caucus is actively pursuing options.
