When was the last time a party of the right was encouraged to select a leader that could appeal to the left?

Yet every time a party of the left has a leadership race, being able to appeal to the right is supposedly massively important.

Not having it. Let's stop watering ourselves down.

It has now been 30 days with NO humanitarian aid getting into Gaza.

No food, no water, no medicine, no fuel.

That is barbaric. The U.S. must end our complicity in these atrocities.

"With egg prices soaring due to the bird flu outbreak, border officials say they're catching more people attempting to bring eggs into the United States illegally. In fact, sharp increases in egg seizures are outpacing border officials' interceptions of deadly fentanyl."

Esto es lo que ha confirmado el jefe de UNOPS : un trabajador internacional de la ONU, de UNOPS, ha muerto y cinco han resultado heridos, algunos de gravedad, en un ataque a una base de la ONU en Deir al Balah, #Gaza. Israel conocía perfectamente la función del complejo.

The Trump administration’s decision to impose a far-reaching freeze on U.S. foreign aid programs has thrust humanitarian and development organizations into crisis, prompting the layoff or furloughing of thousands of workers and mass panic as aid groups warn they may have to shut down.
