Fascinating & foreboding that the mammal-contagious variant of bird flu that's killed thousands of pinnipeds in the southern hemisphere hasn't made its way north yet. I guess birds aren't carrying that strain & the tropical oceans are a mammal migratory barrier? 🦊🪶🧪🌎

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.
