WASHINGTON (AP) — With a bit of rejiggering, President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump played host Sunday to hundreds of super-heroes, unicorns, skeletons and even a miniature version of themselves as part of a Halloween celebration at the White House.In years past, the president and first lady personally handed candy to the costume-clad kids, but this year, the treats were provided as participants walked along a path on the South Lawn.The kids still got to briefly meet the president and first lady though, who waved and offered words of encouragement from a safe distance about how much they liked the costumes.Trump was particularly pleased with a young boy with a distinctly Trump head of hair and a partner who did her best Mrs. Trump impersonation. The president motioned for them to turn and pose for the cameras, and they happily agreed.Another tot, a true princess it appeared, was so smitten with the cameras that she kept waving at them as she walked along, never noticing the VIPs behind her. 1026

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The constellation of polling places across the country forms the backbone of voting in America. Yet, with about 117,000 of them, it doesn’t always run smoothly.“Some of them are commonplace situations, folks who may not know what ID they need to vote,” said Izzy Bronstein, campaign manager with the nonprofit, nonpartisan organization Common Cause.Common Cause is one of several organizations banding together for the nonpartisan effort Protect the Vote to ensure every vote gets counted in the 2020 election.“There are a number of problems we expect this year,” Bronstein said.Among the potential issues: confusion over mail-in ballots, early voting dates, whether ballot witnesses are needed and what polling sites are open, as well as the potential for voter intimidation. Fear of that is rising on the heels of President Donald Trump saying at the first presidential debate, "Go to the polls and watch very carefully."With all of that in mind, Protect the Vote is recruiting thousands of volunteers across the country – 20,000 signed up so far – to be on hand at polling sites to answer voter questions. They will also help get them in touch with attorneys – from the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law -- through a nationwide hotline, so they can assist a voter if they run into trouble casting a ballot.“We know that this is a big election with a lot of at stake,” said Suzanne Almeida of Common Cause PA, which is heading up the effort in the battleground state of Pennsylvania.Almeida is quick to point out that their volunteers are not poll watchers, which are people usually affiliated with a particular candidate.Instead, volunteers with Protect the Vote are called poll monitors and are non-partisan.“It is even more incumbent on us, particularly wearing our nonpartisan hat, to make sure that the election runs smoothly, because we know that folks are going to be looking carefully at the results in Pennsylvania,” Almeida said.Other battleground states, like Florida and Wisconsin, can also expect an election spotlight since there have been election-related issues there in the past.“It's about making sure that every voter gets their ballot counted and their voice heard in our democracy,” Bronstein said. “And that's really something we can all come together on.”If you run into any issues while voting, Protect the Vote has set up a nationwide hotline, staffed by attorneys from the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. That number is (866) OUR-VOTE or 866-687-8683For election help in Spanish: 888-VE-Y-VOTA or 888-839-8682.To volunteer as a poll monitor, click here. 2633

WASHINGTON, D.C. - You may have gotten one in the mail or a knock on the door: for months, the Census Bureau has counted every person living in the United States.Even the homeless in a rural state like Montana get counted."In the last month, we finished and submitted a census for 70 homeless people," said Carley Tuss, with St. Vincent de Paul homeless services in Great Falls, Montana.This year, though, an accurate census count could be in jeopardy."The census is not a dry statistical exercise," said Thomas Wolf of the Brennan Center for Justice, pushing in court for an accurate census count.Because of the coronavirus, the Census Bureau extended the deadline for in-person counting, setting it for the end of October. Then, things changed."Suddenly, then, on August 3, the Commerce Department and the Census Bureau abruptly and without explanation said that they were going to go back to the original timeline," Wolf said.The Census Bureau now plans to stop counting at the end of September, a full month earlier than planned.What's more, the deadline for processing those tens of millions of census responses, set for the spring of next year, got pushed up to the end of this year.However, a federal judge temporarily halted the plan, until there can be a court hearing later this month."If you cut the time short, you don't have enough time to collect the data. You don't have enough time to process the data," Wolf said, "and then you end up with real problems."Those problems could include under-counting communities of color, like African Americans, Hispanics, and Native Americans.In response to our questions, the Census Bureau referred us to a statement from their director, Steven Dillingham, which says, in part, "We are taking steps and adapting our operations to make sure everyone is counted while keeping everyone safe."Census maps, which are updated continuously, show that it can be a struggle in some states.Montana, Arizona, Alabama, Georgia, and New Mexico rank at the bottom of the list, with only about three-quarters of households responding.That can end up costing those states billions of dollars for highways, food stamps, school programs, and student loans.For example, Florida had one of the country's worst response rates during the 2010 census, and it cost the state tens of billions in federal dollars."When we don't participate, the money goes elsewhere," said Jonathan Evans, the city manager of Riviera Beach, Florida.In the meantime, multiple federal court cases are challenging – among other things-- the census schedule and the Trump administration's effort to exclude undocumented migrants from the count.Whether those cases are resolved before the census count ends remains to be seen. 2738

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Late Saturday, President Trump criticized the FBI for missing signals about the Florida school shooter.According to CNN, the FBI said it failed to act on information regarding Nikolas Cruz, who murdered 17 people at his former high school in Parkland.Trump described the failure as “very sad” in a tweet around 8 p.m. Saturday.“Very sad that the FBI missed all of the many signals sent out by the Florida school shooter. This is not acceptable. They are spending too much time trying to prove Russian collusion with the Trump campaign - there is no collusion. Get back to the basics and make us all proud!”Very sad that the FBI missed all of the many signals sent out by the Florida school shooter. This is not acceptable.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Two different doses of a thyroid medication are being recalled because they're not potent enough.The Food and Drug Administration announced Thursday that Acella Pharmaceuticals is voluntarily recalling one lot of 15-milligram and one lot of 120-milligram NP Thyroid?, Thyroid Tablets.The products may have as low as 87% of the labeled amount of levothyroxine, which is used to treat hypothyroidism (an underactive thyroid), according to the FDA.The company’s risk statement says patients being treated for hypothyroidism who receive sub potent NP Thyroid may experience symptoms of hypothyroidism, including fatigue, increased sensitivity to cold, constipation, dry skin, puffy face, hair loss, slow heart rate, depression, swelling of the thyroid gland and/or unexplained weight gain or difficulty losing weight.“There is reasonable risk of serious injury in newborn infants or pregnant women with hypothyroidism including early miscarriage, fetal hyperthyroidism, and/or impairments to fetal neural and skeletal development,” wrote Acella. “In elderly patients and patients with underlying cardiac disease toxic cardiac manifestations of hyperthyroidism may occur, such as cardiac pain, palpitations or cardiac arrhythmia.”So far, Acella says it has received four reports of "adverse events" for these lot numbers, possibly related to the recall.The products subject to recall are packed in 100-count bottles.
