let me bring in nbc news correspondent ken dilanian, bring us up to speed. >> hallie, there have beenese charges against some members of congress, including paul arguing, if you've engaged in rebellion or insurrection none of these claims have been successful and it wasn't successful in her case. this was the third ruling on this issue. a fulton county judge in atlanta has ruled that the plaintiffs did not make the case that marjorie taylor greene engaged in insurrection, even though in the course of the court hearing a text message emerged in which she appeared to have called for donald trump to declare martial law as the january 6th insurrection was unfolding. nonetheless, the judges rule that wasn't enough to declare her ineligible to run for re-election. it's a heavily republican district. she's favored to win. so she's clear to stand for re-election, hallie. >> ken dilanian, thanks for that update. >>> we want to turn to the monkeypox outbreak, and experts that the u.s. is in their words losing daylight, running out of time to try to contain the outbreak if that's still possible.
