From The Federalist, left-wing Democrats "snarl" at Speaker Johnson's faith because they know at it's a threat to them.

From Ekathimerini, a proposed law against spreading terrorist content is posted for public consultation by the Greek Ministry of Justice.

From the Greek City Times, passport control machines stop working at the Eleftherios Venizelos airport, which serves Athens, Greece.  (This is the airport I flew into in 2006.  Fortunately, there were no technical difficulties that day.)
