Trump denied disaster aid to four Democratic-led states. Yet two days earlier, he had approved FEMA disaster aid for six Republican-led states. The move is raising questions about whether he’s injecting political motivations into emergency management decisions.

The move deepens what Democrats say is the president's politicization of federal emergency management decisions.

Oscar winner Ernest Borgnine was 95 when he died of renal failure OTD in 2012. I loved that he was the very definition of a "working actor," taking roles that were sometimes unworthy of his talents, just because he clearly enjoyed what he did. A genuine original.

Years ago, I accidentally caught a few minutes of a documentary about diet guru Rosemary Conley. She had a library installed in her home, and paid a book dealer to fill it. When he asked what sort of books she'd like, she said, 'Mostly red and green ones.' I think about this at least twice a week.
