Rehoboth, the presidential getaway in waiting
Reading now: 220
Rehoboth Beach, Del. is a presidential vacation town in waiting. With presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden owning a home near the beach in North Shores, the city is preparing to become the nation’s next Hyannis Port, Kennebunkport, or Martha’s Vineyard.
Although providing a getaway for the president would be a new challenge for Rehoboth, the resort town known as “the nation’s summer capital” is no stranger to high-profile visitors — including Biden during his time as vice president.
Rehoboth Police Chief Keith Banks said that his department’s role would be to “provide support” to the Secret Service to coordinate the president’s visits.

HIV Discoverer Luc Montagnier Dead at 89
The New York Times reports.His discovery was important but not without controversy. The deadly disease that had first surfaced in 1981 and was eventually given the name of AIDS, for acquired immune deficiency syndrome, was devastating gay and bisexual men, along with certain other populations, but its cause remained mysterious for some time.Some scientists, however, suspected it was caused by a retrovirus, “a kind of germ that slips into the host cell’s DNA and takes control, in a reversal of the way viruses typically work; hence the name retro,” the Times notes.Montagnier, an expert on retroviruses, and his team at the Pasteur Institute did research in 1983 on a lymph node that had been removed from a person with AIDS.
