The Supreme Court published two major decisions Thursday. In a 5-4 opinion, the court ruled the Biden Administration has the right to end the Trump-era ‘Remain in Mexico’ policy. And, in a 6-3 opinion, the court sided with West Virginia coal plant operators that the Environmental Protection Agency does not have the authority to change the nation’s energy producing system. Next, local health officials are encouraging masking as omicron sub-variants BA.4 and BA.5 are taking hold in San Diego and infection rates and hospitalizations are rising. Then, California’s eviction moratorium program ends Thursday, but tenants may qualify for a city of San Diego eviction moratorium starting Friday. Next, inflation is hitting every part of the economy, including local hospitals. Finally, Marvel Comics' Spider-Man celebrates his 60th anniversary this year. To celebrate his legacy, the Comic-Con Museum is opening Spider-Man: Beyond Amazing on Friday.
