#FloridaRepublicans walk fine line on #DisasterAid, as #shutdown looms

#HouseRepublicans from #Florida, which was hit by a major #hurricane last month, are attempting a delicate balancing act on #DisasterRelief funding.

#Idalia T+7. I still have yet to see a Mediacom truck anywhere in the city, so who knows when we are getting modern internet back at the house. Most people I know have power back, and most of the shortages of goods have passed. Bowie is very happy that she now has control of the box (for now)
