Wondering... people in flood zones in Kentucky- are you receiving assistance from the government? I haven't seen anything on the flooding victims and government support.

NO more performances at the Kennedy Center. Shame.

Phone the Capitol switchboard at 202-224-2131. You have the right to tell your state representatives (Senators and Congresspeople) how you're feeling about things. You also have the right to speak to committee chairs and committee members, even if they are not in your district (see house.gov)

And so it begins... Really? What were we expecting?

USAID.gov is down. Why is this concerning? Trump has no legal authority to eliminate a congressionally funded independent agency. The work of USAID is vital, and if this can happen to them, it can happen to any of us.

Since the CDC can't *talk* to WHO, you can sign up for their newsletters and health emergency highlights. ⚠️🚨 ➡️ www.who.int/news-room/ne...
