Pentagon IG Ordered to Probe U.S. Use of Ticks as Biological Weapons
Democracy Now! - House lawmakers have ordered an investigation into how the U.S. military experimented with parasites as weapons of war. An amendment to the recently approved 2020 defense authorization bill requires the Pentagon's inspector general to investigate how the U.S. secretly tested disease-carrying ticks and fleas as biological weapons between 1950 and 1975. This follows the publication of the book "Bitten" by author Kris Newby, which tells the story of bioweapons researcher Willy Burgdorfer, who studied weaponized parasites at U.S. government labs. Newby contends Lyme disease escaped from a U.S. government lab at Plum Island near Long Island, New York, although that conclusion is widely disputed by medical professionals.

Maine making it easier for asylum seekers to quality for aid
AP - PORTLAND, Maine (AP) - Maine's Democratic governor is expanding assistance to an influx of prospective asylum seekers and urging the federal government to also provide funding. Gov. Janet Mills says Thursday her administration's new regulations will allow asylum seekers to qualify for general assistance vouchers if they prove they are taking "reasonable good faith steps" to apply for immigration relief. She says aid will help asylum seekers prepare to enter the workforce. State law requires municipalities to offer food, housing, electricity and medical expense assistance to low-income people. The state reimburses 70 percent of costs. Her administration estimates the new regulations will cost several hundred thousand dollars. A 2015 law allows asylum seekers to receive general assistance for up to 24 months. But Mills says the previous administration ended up passing narrow regulations.
