Federal resources (FEMA) and disaster declarations are already declared so hopefully people will start getting help immediately once the storm passes.
The humanitarian airlift out of Afghanistan continues. Over the past couple of weeks, 113,000 Americans and SIV-Afghans have been flown out of the country. A bad situation turned worse when a member of ISIS-K detonated a suicide vest, killing American troops and Afghans. The violence just reinforces my opinion that it was time to leave Afghanistan... 19 years ago.

The American service members who gave their lives were heroes. Heroes who have been engaged in a dangerous, selfless mission to save the lives of others. We have a continuing obligation — a sacred obligation — to their families that will last forever.

The U.S. fought back swiftly, launching a drone strike that killed the planner and associate of the deadly attack.
The Delta variant and low vaccination rates are two reasons COVID-19 is hanging around this summer. Case numbers are climbing all over the country, but the crisis point remains the south. Still, some states are reissuing mask mandates to try and stop the spread. Illinois is now under a mandatory mask mandate for everyone again.
Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker has reinstated a mask mandate for the state, requiring masks in indoor settings — regardless of COVID vaccination status.

Booster shots are coming for sure. It's just a question of when.
#Breaking: Israel no longer considers people who have received 2 Pfizer/BioNTech vaccines "vaccinated." As of September 1, only 3x vaccinated are considered immune.

Sirhan Sirhan, the man who killed Robert F. Kennedy in 1968 and altered the course of history was granted parole and will be released from prison unless California Governor Gavin Newsom reverses the decision. Personally, I think it's ridiculous to let him out of jail. He should stay behind bars for life.
