Thinking about Jim Foley. He was murdered by ISIS militants 12 years ago today in Syria. He covered American soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. Reported on the “Arab Spring” in Libya and later on the civil war in Syria.

Trump Votes by Mail Again in Florida
The president also voted by mail in 2020 and in a Florida special election in March, even as he has railed against the practice and equated it to cheating.

This is absolutely bananas. Trump says we’re suspending exercises with South Korea because of his “really good relationship” with Kim Jong-un. North Korea is nuclear-armed, threatens South Korea, and is actively helping Russia wage war against Ukraine.

Macy's is getting rid the women's plus-size departments in all their stores. Plus-size will be carried online only. How very very disappointing. They have lost my business. I'm canceling my Macy's card and will no longer use them for any other purchases.

Special Citations and Awards

Julie K. Brown
A special citation is awarded to Miami Herald reporter Julie K. Brown for her groundbreaking reporting in 2017 and 2018 that exposed Jeffrey Epstein's systematic abuse of young women, the justice system that protected him, and, over time, his powerful network of associates and enablers.
Her Perversion of Justice series, published nearly a decade ago, revealed how prosecutors shielded Epstein from federal sex trafficking charges when he was first accused of abusing young women. She went on to document and give voice to the scores of victims who had been groomed and abused by him and others in his circle. Her work, and the release of the government's Epstein files, continue to reverberate around the world.

An educational infographic titled TORNADO TERMINOLOGY featuring a stylized tornado icon.

Tornado Watch: Weather conditions could lead to the formation of severe storms and tornadoes. BE PREPARED: Know your safe location. Be ready to act quickly.

Tornado Warning: A tornado has been spotted or indicated by radar. TAKE ACTION: There is imminent danger. Seek refuge immediately.

Tornado Emergency: A rare situation with a severe threat to life and catastrophic damage. TAKE ACTION.
