President Joe Biden ordered an attack Iranian-backed militias, CNN reported Thursday.

"The US military struck a site in Syria on Thursday used by two Iranian-backed militia groups following rocket attacks on American forces in the region in the past two weeks, according to a US official. The strikes mark the military's first known action under President Joe Biden. The site was not specifically tied to the rocket attacks, but were believed to be used by Iranian-backed Shia militias operating in the region," CNN reported.

On Thursday, the Senate parliamentarian has ruled that the minimum wage increase cannot be included in the Democratic COVID-19 stimulus package.

Democrats are passing the legislation as part of a budget reconciliation package, meaning that there are strict rules about what can and cannot be included in the bill in order to avoid a 60-vote threshold.

On Newsmax Thursday, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) attacked the Democratic stimulus plan making its way toward passage, and demanded that everything "go back to work, go back to school, go back to normal, and stop spending money" — disregarding the fact that the COVID-19 pandemic is still very much ongoing.

He also claimed that "91 percent" of the bill "isn't even for COVID" — overlooking that a major purpose of the bill is to reverse economic damage caused by the virus, not just the virus itself.
