After Hurricane Helene devastated cities across the Southeast this past weekend, political finger-pointing has sprung over how to best respond to disaster-torn communities. At a campaign rally, former President Donald Trump accused President Joe Biden of neglecting disaster areas while vacationing, and criticized Vice President Kamala Harris for fundraising over the weekend. Later today, Trump plans to visit Valdosta, Georgia for a briefing on the disaster, and President Joe Biden plans to visit disaster-impacted areas later this week. But, North Carolina Rep. Chuck Edwards told Playbook's Rachael Bade that his constituents need water, food, and federal disaster assistance, not political photo opps. That, plus, everything else you need to know today.
