A dangerous and potentially deadly heatwave threatens much of the continental US, with dozens of record high temperatures both in the daytime and in the evening expected this weekend.More than 150 million people in nearly 30 states were under a heat watch, warning or advisory on Thursday morning, according to CNN meteorologist Dave Hennen.Over the next few days, more than 85 percent of the lower 48's population will see temperatures above 90 degrees Fahrenheit, Hennen said, and more than half will see temperatures in excess of 95 degrees.Much of the heat expected for Thursday was forecast to descend on the Midwest and Mississippi, before making its way to the Northeast on Friday and Saturday, Hennen said. 726

With international borders closed, the final step of the process for adoptive parents have been put on hold. Many adoptive parents in the United States are unable to fly to other countries to bring their child home. “We’re in the process of adopting an 11-year-old girl from Columbia. Her name is Maria Camila,” Gwen Christensen said.Seth and Gwen Christensen spent years making this decision and filling out all the paperwork. “We went down there in March, the middle of March to adopt her, and finish everything up,” Gwen said. However, they were a few days too late, in terms of bringing home their child.“Then there was news they were closing the airport for international flights that following Monday, which started to make us realize ‘oh my goddess we’re not going to be done by Monday,” Seth explained. “And we have three kids back here [in the U.S.],” Gwen added. Days before they were scheduled to fly home with Maria Camila, courts closed across all of Colombia.“Everything was just going swimmingly until they shut down all the courts in the whole country,” Gwen said. This halted the official adoption process.“That Thursday night the lawyer said we think you should leave,” Gwen said. “That was a really, really hard night.” On Friday, they took Maria Camila back to her group home. “It was awful, but she was old enough,” Gwen explained. “We cried and she was like ok, going back for a couple months.” The Christensens flew back to the U.S. “I was glad to be back in the U.S., but it was really hard to be back without her,” Gwen said. The worldwide COVID-19 pandemic caused a lot of disruptions and halted a lot of international adoptions mid-process.“A year, we usually facilitate anywhere from 100 to 120 adoptions,” said Hollen Frazier, President of All God’s Children International. “So far, year-to-date since January, we’ve only had 12 children be able to make their way home to families.” The agency facilitates adoptions from a number of countries, including the adoption of Maria Camila. “For many of these families even to get to the point of travel to bring their child home, they've been already in it for two plus years,” Frazier said. “China was where we saw COVID-19 really take root early on in January and February, which has affected a lot of our families and adoption processes. And then in March, we saw that really take off and expand to really the world and in all seven of the countries we have adoption programs in,” Frazier explained.She said they’ve seen matching of parents with children really slow down since the pandemic started. “We went down another 26 percent over last year in the number of international adoptions,” Frazier said. This makes her concerned, as everything deemed non-essential is closed.“A lot of the countries we work in, the social services children need to be safe and then thrive, they’re not being deemed as essential,” she said. But some emerging options give her hope.“We’re really looking at new ways in utilizing technology to leverage and expand the work we’re doing,” Frazier said. For example, usually Haiti adoptive parents have to go on two trips to the country – the first is a socialization period, and then months later they go back for a final trip. But with technology, that has changed.“The Haitian Central Authority announced they'll allow that first trip to happen via Zoom,” Frazier explained. She said this is a step in the right direction. “It is hopeful to see some countries are now starting to really think through ways we can continue to progress these adoptions, so we are being child-centered and focused on how we can get these kids home,” she said. As for Seth and Gwen, they keep in touch with Maria Camila via video chat, until the day Colombian borders and the legal system open up again.“We want to be able to bring her home and start having her new life,” Gwen said.  3897

WASHINGTON – When the House of Representatives begins its public impeachment hearings, it will be a rare event – only the fourth time involving a president. Presidents Andrew Johnson, Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton all faced varying degrees of the impeachment process. Now, so will President Donald Trump. “It is a political event,” said Georgetown Law Professor Victoria Nourse. She says while it is a high-profile event, she cautions to not call it “political theater.” “Impeachment was the last gasp, right? If someone did something completely antithetical to the nature of the Republic, if they were essentially unfit to serve in office, the founders wanted to have a backstop remedy, other than an election,” Nourse said. Here’s how the process will unfold: 1. Several House committees will hold public hearings. It’s up to the judiciary committee to decide if the full House will vote on impeachment. 2. Democrats hold the majority in the House– there are 235 of them. At least 218 representatives need to vote for impeachment for it to move on to the Senate. 3. The Senate holds the impeachment trial and acts as a jury. 4. Republicans have the majority in that chamber— 53 seats. An impeachment conviction requires a two-thirds majority vote. There are three offenses that are considered impeachable: - Treason - Bribery - High crimes and misdemeanors The Constitution does not define what high crimes and misdemeanors are, so it’s open to interpretation. “What it has to be is something that is very serious to the conduct of the nation's democracy,” Nourse said. That’s what is dividing Congressional Democrats and Republicans now: does President Trump’s actions involving Ukraine rise to the level of high crimes and misdemeanors? 1769

A federal judge in Washington declined to block the Trump administration's new asylum rule that dramatically limits the ability of Central American migrants to claim asylum if they enter the US by land through Mexico.US District Judge Timothy Kelly, a Trump appointee, said Wednesday that plaintiffs didn't meet the threshold of irreparable harm. The ruling is specific to a temporary restraining order. Proceedings will continue for a preliminary injunction.The 475
