Obama campaign strategist David Axelrod said on Sunday that reports of him attending President Obama's weekly 'Terror Tuesday' meetings are blatantly false. The New York Times recently reported that Obama and his national security team hold weekly meetings, with Axelrod in attendance, to pore over terrorists' biographies and discuss which of them are on the president's 'kill list.' Axelrod's alleged presence at the meetings raised some concerns that the administration was dangerously blurring campaign politics with national security.But Axelrod emphatically denied the accusation on CBS' 'Face the Nation' Sunday morning. 'I m flat out asserting that that is not true,' he said. 'There were meetings, I know there were weekly meetings dealing with terrorist threats and planning around it, but I did not attend those meetings.'Also on HuffPost:

LAGOS, Nigeria -- Emergency workers in Nigeria fought fires and searched for corpses through the night in a neighborhood that an aging American-built airliner plowed into, killing all 153 on board. Rescue officials said Monday they fear many people may have perished on the ground too.A Nigeria Red Cross report said that 48 bodies had been recovered so far, with more being dug out from the rubble.The pilots reported engine trouble before the crash. Less than two months ago, the same Boeing MD-83 had loss of engine power due to a bird strike, according to an aviation database.On a clear Sunday afternoon, the Dana Air jetliner crashed into businesses and crowded apartment buildings near Lagos' Murtala Muhammed International Airport, the worst air disaster in Nigeria in nearly two decades.'The fear is that since it happened in a residential area, there may have been many people killed,' said Yushau Shuaib, a spokesman for Nigeria's National Emergency Management Agency.The cause of the crash remained unclear. The pilots radioed to the Lagos control tower just before the crash, reporting engine trouble, a military official said. The official spoke on condition of anonymity as he was not authorized to speak to journalists. Rescue workers searched for the aircraft's black box recorders where flight data is stored, said Harold Demuren, the director-general of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority.Demuren said the Nigerian registration number of the plane was 5NRAM. Aviation databases show the plane was exported to Nigeria in early 2009. It was first delivered in 1990 with the U.S. registration number N944AS to Alaska Airlines and it suffered two minor incidents while in the Seattle-based airline's service, according to databases of the Federal Aviation Administration and the Aviation Safety Network. On Nov. 2, 2002, the plane made an emergency diversion due to smoke and electrical smell in the cabin, and on Aug. 20, 2006, the plane was evacuated

* Funding is erratic, subject to congressional tug of war * Some fear spread of disease after possible tornado strike * National Research Council studies due out this month By Kevin Murphy MANHATTAN, Kansas, June 3 (Reuters) - The site of a proposed facility to fight animal diseases, including those which could be spread by bioterrorists, is little more than a parking lot today because of safety and budget concerns. Construction of an ambitious National Bio and Agro-Defense Center in this Kansas university town is on hold due to the federal budget crunch and concerns about risks to livestock and human populations, especially in the event of natural disaster. 'When we were named as the site, I thought the battle was over and it was just a matter of moving ahead,' said Ron Trewyn, who has shepherded the project along as vice president for research at Kansas State University. Now, more than a decade after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks raised fears of bioterrorism on U.S. soil, an armed guard and steel perimeter fence protect idle equipment in the parking lot and a few utility sheds at the stalled construction site. Further construction on what may or may not be the future home of America's primary facility for fighting dangerous animal diseases awaits two National Research Council reports due in late June on health and safety risks posed by the plant. Those reports may determine the fate of the $1 billion project. One report will analyze the risks of the plant as currently designed, and the other will look at scaling back the project or scrapping it altogether. Stop-and-go funding decisions by Congress, partisan gridlock in Washington and politicians with local interests in mind have also helped keep the project in limbo. Three years ago, the Department of Homeland Security a
