Thanks! The submitted URL was https://www.usaid.gov/ but since that site doesn't currently exist, we replaced it with that third-party report (which admittedly doesn't say much either).

That's all very well, but now it appears the post title is now editoralised compared to the title of the site it now links, "Website for USAID appears to be offline".

Hate to remind you of rules/conventions, but if you keep doing things like this I'll report you. ;)

Ok! Changed now. (Submitted title was "USAID website has been taken down")
I figured linking straight to the site was good way to just show what’s going on and assumed most people interested would understand the context, but I see how it might not have been the best idea.
I think one can argue it either way and you did nothing wrong!
