Biden to travel to Mississippi in wake of deadly storms

President Biden will travel to Rolling Fork, Miss., on Friday to survey the damage from the massive and deadly storms that tore through the state over the weekend.
First lady Jill Biden will also join the president on the trip. They will assess recovery efforts and “reaffirm their commitment to supporting the people of Mississippi as long as it takes,” the White House announced on Wednesday. 
The Bidens also plan to meet with first responders, state and local officials, and communities impacted by the storms.
The president on Sunday declared an emergency to aid recovery and clean-up efforts in Mississippi, making federal funds available for a number of counties that were ravaged in the state. Multiple tornadoes ripped through Mississippi on Friday, with one of the more devastating ones striking 60 miles northeast of Jackson.
Biden on Saturday called Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves (R) and lawmakers from the state, including Republican Sens. Roger Wicker and Cindy Hyde-Smith and Democratic Rep. Bennie Thompson.
On those calls, the president expressed his condolences for the lives lost and the damage resulting from the tornadoes and asked how he can be most supportive.
The president typically visits sites of natural disasters and other incidents to survey damage and meet with first responders, local leaders and those impacted.
He faced backlash last month for not visiting Ohio in the wake of the train derailment in East Palestine. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Michael Regan went on behalf of the administration. Manwhile, former President Trump also visited the site.

The dreadful tragedy that has occurred in Rolling Fork Mississippi was just like a disaster film perpetrated by a nasty villain, & yet it was real.
Poor area with no elites living there, weather man looks shocked at what’s coming (he must know about weather manipulation and directed atmosphere control).
Was it a film…..or a demonstration of what can be done with the control of natural forces by atmospheric manipulation?
Every sense I possess scream this was a deliberate event, the perfect storm if you like. The tornado was a mile and a half wide, just right for taking out the whole town, it came in at just the right angle and direction to do maximum destruction. I don’t like what I am thinking here but I can’t help but say it.

Please pray for Mississippi right now.
A massive tornado just went through doing an immense amount of damage.
Towns I’ve seen mentioned so far that have taken most of the damage include Amory, Silver City, and Rolling Fork.

Is this guy braindead. The population of Rolling Fork is in the Mississippi Delta. The town itself is ~70% Black. ~37% of the population is under the poverty line. The county it’s in leans heavily democratic. Rich, white, transphobic/homophobic republicans are not the ones you’re owning, here, dude.

Mississippi is getting hit by a massive mile wide EF4 or 5 tornado right now. Multiple towns have been hit and potentially wiped out, including Rolling Fork. If you are in Mississippi check the weather right now. If you have loved ones in the area, all and check in. If you are a person with urban SAR certifications and can get to the area safely, check the news for ways you can help.

Hi there, could you maybe write a JJ/Will one shot based on Josh Stewart’s cardiac arrest? I think it could be interesting ☺️
Don't go breaking my heart (Willifer OneShot)
Summary: Will has a heart attack after an argument with his wife.
Warnings: Heart attack, marital spat, not a huge fight though.
I couldn't find a ton of information on his heart attack but it seems like his wife at the time saved him. I'm gonna differ from that though. Also side note, when I was reading his roles on wikipedia, I seen Criminal Minds on there and I was so shocked for a whole 3 seconds before I realized I was literally looking for information for a criminal minds oneshot... Like my brain is lagging.
Anywayyyy here it goes
Read on AO3
or full story below cut
The morning had been cold, JJ had insisted that both boys put on jackets before they left for school and even though Henry had groaned and argued, he wore a jacket to school. JJ stood against the counter, a plate of Will's amazing scrambled eggs in one hand and a fork in the other.
"Since its your day off, I was thinking that we could get to some of the yardwork that-" Will was cut off by his own groan and his hand went to his chest. JJ stood up straight in alert,
"Will? You okay?" She asked, quickly setting the plate down, Will took a couple of deep breaths.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm alright." He said, "It was just a little pain." Will brushed it off, JJ stared at him for a few seconds before nodding,
"Let me know if it happens again, alright?" She said, he nodded. JJ picked her eggs back up and continued to eat,
"Anyway, we have a lot of work to do if we want to get the fire pit done by Henry's birthday .I assume he still wants a bonfire birthday." Will said, starting to wash the dishes from breakfast. JJ nodded and added her plate to the sink,
"Yeah, he's dead set on it." She said with a smile, "I can't believe that he's going to be 14 already." She sighed, glancing at a baby picture of him that hung on the fridge. Will smiled sadly,
"Seems like just yesterday he was so small..." Will said, looking at the same photo. JJ smiled as well. The two were pulled from the moment by a familiar sound, JJ's phone pinging with a text. They stared in the direction of the phone for a few seconds before Will let out a sigh. JJ pursed her lips and grabbed the phone from the counter,
"Will, I'm sorry... Its an emergency." She said, reading the text. A girl was missing in Minnesota and her parents had waited nearly 24 hours to report it. Will just shook his head,
"Isn't it always?" He said. JJ sighed and touched his shoulder,
"Come on, Will, I can't help it." She tried, she knew it sounded lame but this was the same fight they'd had a million times before,
"It seems like every time you get a day off there suddenly an emergency and you're carted off to Mississippi or Iowa." Will said, sounding more than slightly annoyed. JJ rolled her eyes,
"Its my job, Will... What do you want me to do? Have a press conference and tell all the bad guys that they need to take a day off so I can have a day off?" She said, it was Will's turn to roll his eyes,
"I just don't understand why your team can't just go without you. I mean, they've obviously worked shorthanded before." Will pointed out,
"Yeah, but they shouldn't have to." JJ said, "Its a little girl..." JJ told him, "What if-"
"Don't say it. Just go." He said, turning back to the dishes. JJ sighed and turned to leave the kitchen.
Once his wife was out of the room, Will allowed himself to lean against the counter. His chest was hurting again, but this time he felt all the air leave his body as well. He grasped the edge of the sink, but pretty soon he felt his knees give out and he was on the floor. his hands were shaking as he pulled his phone from his pocket. He heard the front door open and shut. He wanted to shout for JJ, but it was too late. Will could barely keep his eyes open as he dialed 911 on his phone. He was able to utter 'Help' before losing all consciousness.
---
As soon as JJ stepped off of the elevator, Garcia was standing there with a worried look on her face.
"JJ, is your phone on?" She asked, JJ furrowed her eyebrows.
"No, I had it off while I was driving." She said, "Why what's wrong?" Garcia bit her lip,
"I got a call from the hospital, they said they couldn't get ahold of you but my line was also listed as an emergency contact for Will and-"
"Garcia, what happened?" JJ asked, her heart had started racing as soon as the tech genius said 'hospital'
"Will had a heart attack." She said, finally, "I guess he was able to dial 911 and they traced his call and the paramedics got him stabilized, but he's in the hospital now." Garcia said. JJ gripped the bag in her hand tighter,
"Let Emily know that I had to go. She'll understand." JJ said as she turned around and went right back into the elevator.
---
Will's eyes blinked open and he was met with a dim, white room. He knew right away he was in the hospital. He tried to sit up, but a hand on his chest pushed him to lay down. He blinked a couple more times before he could see who it was,
"Jennifer-" He murmured, she squeezed his hand.
"I'm right here, but you need to stay down. The doctors don't want you to get too active..." She said, her eyes were read and he could see the trails where the tears diluted her makeup.
"Oh, JJ..." He murmured, he wanted to pull her into a hug, but his whole body felt so weak,
"I'm so sorry, Will." She whispered, he could tell she was about to start crying again, "I-I didn't- I should have stayed... You- oh god- you needed me and I wasn't-"
"Sh, sh, Its alright, hun." He murmured, squeezing her hand back. She began wiping at her eyes,
"I should have seen the signs." She said, Will let out a huff,
"So should I. Its not your fault, JJ." He said,
"But the last thing we did was argue..." She murmured, "What if they hadn't gotten there in time and-"
"Well, they did get there in time." Will said sternly, "And I'm alright. In the future, we can work on not leaving our arguments unsettled. But right now I just want to be with you." JJ gave him a soft smile and nodded slowly,
"Sounds like a plan."
