International journalists can’t enter Gaza. But healthcare workers can.

That makes their testimony vital. They can cut through to the reality of the atrocities Israel is committing in Gaza.

In today’s video, you’ll hear their firsthand accounts of witnessing a genocide:

Several guests who attended Trump's crypto dinner last night said they attended with the explicit intent of influencing him and U.S. financial regulations.

Trump is selling access to our government to the highest bidder while lining his own pockets.

It's all out in the open.

Trump is using official trade policy to promote Musk's satellite business Starlink.

This is a glaring conflict of interest.

Government policy should be designed to benefit the American people, not abused for personal tech bro profiteering.

Did you see the below video from @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social re the impact of U.S. #FundingCuts on the fight to #EndTB? Now hear from Chamreun from Cambodia who explains how efforts to find people with TB and get them the care they need has halted.

Millions will die from funding cuts, says UN aid chief Lifesaving operations everywhere continue to be shut down by sweeping funding cutbacks which will result in millions of people dying, the UN’s top aid official said on Wednesday.

β€œCutting funding for those in greatest need is not something to boast about...the impact of aid cuts is that millions die,” warns Emergency Relief Coordinator @tomfletcherun.bsky.social

TB anywhere is TB everywhere! We can't wait for the U.S. to come back to their senses to fund the fight to #EndTB again. We must all work hard to find new ways to #FundTB & see partners #CommitInvestDeliver. Thanks @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social for raising awareness!

A new must read from team @treatmentactiongroup.org πŸ‘‡
It is very upsetting to know that many countries are in a cycle of borrowing & public sector cuts. This #DebtCrisis threatens domestic #TB programs & undermines the ability of high-TB burden countries to invest to #EndTB.

I am appalled that on X an official US House Foreign Affairs Committee account would mock the death of #USAID & the people it supported around the 🌍 like this πŸ‘‡. This is inhumane. Shame on team #MAGA.
