I didn't know Helen of Troy could generate so much conflict.

@Bernstein @daveweigel Achilles was 25 when he died. Brad Pitt was almost 40 when they filmed Troy. That was controversial at the time.

“Ultimately, we’ve just wasted $223,000 of taxpayer money.. That’s my biggest issue with Human Services every time. There’s all kinds of saber rattling whenever something terrible and tragic happens...and then they let the attention to the matter fade away..."

The CDC has paused rabies, smallpox, and monkeypox testing for state and local public health departments amid drastic staff reductions.

By July, the NYT estimates the rabies team will be down to one person, while the pox team will have none.

I don’t think the American public understands how the loss of your local newspaper will impact your communities.

@bitmapped @OLearySW @Lisa_Asillie Thought the same thing. Was surprised to find the poverty rate in Calhoun higher than southern WV.

I miss the fresh air and spring blooms of Appalachia in the spring as much as the next person.

But have you seen late night auroras and occasional moose in your yard?

@four4thefire As a born & raised West Virginian, I love local control. But how's local control working out these days? Hard to tell from a distance when local media has shrunk and starved. Would love to see real leadership lead a charge to consolidate county systems/schools.

NEW: For the first time, ProPublica has been able to quantify how many U.S. citizen children have been directly affected by Trump’s immigration crackdown: more than 11,000 kids had a parent detained — and that’s an undercount. 1/ 🧵
