Tonight's presidential debate takes place in Atlanta. President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump will be on stage at the CNN Studios for the first of two currently-planned major debates ahead of this November's election. The 90-minute event will begin at 9 Eastern tonight.        The New York Post is hoping to make watching tonight's presidential debate a little more entertaining. The newspaper has a bingo card on its website you can mark every time you hear a specific phrase or word uttered by either President Biden or former President Trump. Some words include woke, voter fraud, rigged election and Hunter Biden.       The Supreme Court is dismissing an appeal by Idaho officials that would ban emergency room doctors from performing abortions. This means a lower court ruling that allows doctors to perform abortions in emergency situations will stay in effect for the time being. The decision has no impact on any other states.        Boeing is facing sanctions for disclosing details of the investigation into the 737 Max door panel that blew out during a flight in January. The National Transportation Safety Board said today that Boeing on Tuesday shared information that hadn't been cleared, violating an agreement with the regulator. The agency also said that Boeing mischaracterized the investigation as looking for a person responsible for the door panel, when instead it's looking for the probable cause of the accident.        Oklahoma's state school superintendent is requiring all public schools to have a Bible in every classroom from grades five through 12. On Thursday, Superintendent Ryan Walters announced teachers will also have to teach from the bible and incorporate it as part of their curriculum. Walters claims it's in accordance with academic standards and state law.        The Los Angeles Lakers are pairing LeBron James with his son, Bronny. The team selected Bronny 55th overall in the NBA Draft on Thursday, following one season at the University of Southern California. The duo now has the chance to become the first father-son duo to play in the NBA together at the same time.
