According to a National Head Start Association survey, dozens of Head Start programs—which offer low-income children childcare and preschool education—have been unable to obtain previously authorized federal funding, putting some programs in danger of closing their doors in the near future. The programs claim that since a federal funding freeze was declared in the second week of the Trump administration, they have not been able to access the money to cover costs such as payroll and electricity. An Office of Management and Budget document that initiated the freeze last week was swiftly withdrawn. A judge delayed the action amid a legal challenge to the freeze, and the White House stated that the freeze shouldn't have harmed Head Start programs. However, according to the report, funding dela...

On Tuesday, the NFL referees' labor organization denounced "conspiracy theories" that officials have been slanting games in favor of the Kansas City Chiefs, the two-time defending Super Bowl champions. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has to confront the widespread and unfounded claims that referees are the bag for Kansas City this week as the Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles prepare for Sunday's Super Bowl. NFLRA executive director Scott Green stated that Commissioner Goodell's remarks that it is absurd to assume that NFL officials are not making every effort to call the correct play are accurate. During a regular season, officiating crews only work the same team twice. Hearing conspiracy theories that claim that 17 officiating crews, totaling 138 officials, are conspiring to support one team...

Ellen Greenberg, a Philadelphia school teacher who was viciously stabbed in 2011, will have her cause of death reexamined after a pathologist who earlier declared her death to be a suicide changed his mind last week. On January 26, 2011, Greenberg, then 27 years old, was discovered dead with a kitchen knife stuck in her chest. She was found in the apartment she lived with her fiancé, Samuel Goldberg, in Philadelphia. That night, Goldberg had come home from the gym to find the swing bar lock was engaged from the inside, locking him out of the flat. The Philadelphia Medical Examiner's investigative report states that he eventually managed to pry open the door, located Ellen, and dialed 911. According to the autopsy report, she suffered 20 stab wounds, 10 of which were to her head and neck. A...

At the Port of Sudan, shipping containers containing antimalarial medications and life-saving antibiotics are being kept in limbo. In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, essential medications are running out of stock after a government contractor with limited funds was compelled to turn off the air conditioner. Instead of going to refugee camps abroad, millions of pounds of soybeans cultivated in the United States are being diverted to warehouses. Nonprofit organizations, farm industry groups, and federal lawmakers claim that President Donald Trump's attempt to overthrow the U.S. Agency for International Development—a government agency entrusted with reducing global poverty and providing humanitarian relief—has stalled efforts to distribute vital food, medicine, and other life-saving sup...
