The House of Representatives has canceled plans for a session on Thursday after what Capitol Police described in a statement as a “possible plot to breach the Capitol by an identified militia group.” The threat comes less than two months after a violent mob of then-President Trump’s supporters stormed the Capitol, leading to five deaths. The Capitol Police’s statement noted that due to the sensitive nature of the threat they cannot release any more information, but that they have “made significant security upgrades to include establishing a physical structure and increasing manpower to ensure the protection of Congress ,” and they are taking the intelligence they have received about a possible March 4th attack seriously.

Marisa Acocella was raised in a devout Catholic family. But one of the Bible’s main teachings seriously bugged her. “I always thought, how could a male God give birth to all this?” Acocella says, gesturing at … everything. “It never made sense to me.

Which just so happens to be the name of her latest graphic novel, published last fall. “So, I’ve had this idea for more than 25 years,” Acocella says.
