@cbsnews: The White House is continuing to place blame on Maryland’s Gov. Wes Moore after a sewage pipe collapse near Washington, D.C. dumped hundreds of millions of gallons of raw sewage into the Potomac River. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told CBS News’ Jennifer Jacobs on Wednesday “it will be an ecological and environmental disaster” if Maryland, Virginia and Washington, D.C. don’t ask for the federal government’s help. Leavitt also says President Trump is worried about how the sewage spill will impact planned events in the nation’s capital over the summer to celebrate the nation’s 250th anniversary. Moore on Wednesday accused Trump of lying about the sewage spill and also addressed the White House’s request for a call. “If the president wants me to ask nicely, my response is this: ‘Please Mr. President, do your job,’” Moore said. #maryland #virginia #dc #river #trump
The sewage spill is NOT IN MARYLAND. It IS, however, in Washington, DC on federal land. Maryland has nothing to do with it.

Let me get this straight the federal government can come into states and bring in their own military force to terrorize states without being asked by the states to come but they can't come and help a state with disaster response without being begged first.
