How to help after Harvey: These groups are providing relief to Texans affected by catastrophic flooding
Hurricane Harvey has brought record rainfall and devastating flooding to parts of southeast Texas. Houston, the fourth-largest city in the US, has been especially hard hit. Here's how you can help.
President Trump, how have 100 days in office changed your thinking about national security?
President Trump, how do you plan to combat right-wing extremism in the United States?
President Trump, will you remove US nuclear weapons from Turkey?
President Trump, you bombed Assad for killing 'beautiful babies.' Why won't you accept refugee kids?
President Trump, do you have a red line when it comes to North Korea?
Surveillance footage suggests North Korea could be preparing to test a nuclear weapon in the coming weeks. It would be a significant foreign policy test for President Donald Trump.
President Trump, do you think cutting UN funding by 50 percent will make America safer?
Trump has promised to "make America safe again." Does he think deep cuts to US funding for the United Nations' humanitarian and peacekeeping missions will achieve that goal?
President Trump, is it important to you to limit civilian deaths in US military operations?
The new administration has already faced questions about whether it's doing enough to limit civilian casualties. Will Trump's beefed-up military be one with looser rules of engagement?
President Trump, do you plan to expand the scope of your immigration and refugee ban?
President Donald Trump's first executive order temporarily restricting travel from seven Muslim-majority countries and banning refugees was blocked in federal court. His revised order is narrower in scope, but will his administration expand on it in coming months?
President Trump, what are you going to do in Afghanistan?
America's invasion of Afghanistan began as a military operation to strike back at al-Qaeda after 9/11 and capture or kill Osama bin Laden. It turned into the longest war in US history. It's Trump's responsibility now.
#33. @realDonaldTrump What are your specific plans for Guantanamo? #100Days100Qs
Barack Obama campaigned for the presidency promising to close Guantanamo Bay prison. Donald Trump, on the other hand, promised during his campaign to "load it up with some bad dudes, believe me, we're gonna load it up." What does that mean?
#27. @realDonaldTrump What's the role of the State Department in your administration? #100Days100Qs
A little more than two months ago, Rex Tillerson was running one of the biggest and most powerful companies in the world. Now, he's heading a government agency with an uncertain future under President Donald Trump.
#20: @realDonaldTrump Do you support Syrian President Bashar al-Assad remaining in power? #100Days100Qs
President Donald Trump has been very clear about his plans for ISIS. He's going to "destroy" the group. But it's less clear what Trump wants to see happen in ISIS' home base: Syria.
#12. @realDonaldTrump What do you mean when you say Iran is ‘on notice’? #100days100Qs
The White House did not take kindly this week to reports that Iran tested a ballistic missile over the weekend. The Trump administration wasn't ready to explicitly accuse Tehran of breaching the deal, but the president did fire a warning shot. A very vague warning shot.

The world is watching, and it seems like everybody has an opinion on President Donald Trump's controversial executive order.
