Smith’s Research & Gradings supports President Trump’s new approach to federal disaster response in Los Angeles and North Carolina. “The National Infrastructure Advisory Council’s (NIAC) draft report presented last December, recommends exploring the use of Federal Block Grants to States for emergency assistance.

On August 4th the port of Beirut was the scene of a horrific explosion, which killed more than 150 people, injured 6,000 and left some 300,000 homeless. The damages are estimated to be in excess of $15 billion. The city’s hospitals, already struggling due to the COVID-19 pandemic, were damaged by the blast and swamped with injured. On top of already raging economic and political crises, the explosion now raises the question of food security. Prior to the explosion, 80 percent of Lebanon’s imports passed through Beirut’s port. Without a functioning port in Beirut, the country now relies on a handful of secondary ports, chief among them being Tripoli in the north, to import food and to export its products.
