A doctor in Gaza describes the horror of starvation
"I remember the first time that I saw a little girl, she was eight months old, brought to me—she was sticks and bones and she was dead."
"There is no sane human being who can look at the situation and not see a pile of war crimes and evidence of genocide everywhere that they look at this point. Anyone who doesn’t recognize what’s happening in Gaza as war crimes and a genocide is not serious. They are propagandists and that is it."

The White House is taking new steps to undermine every international student at our universities.
It has approved a new rule restricting student visas to 4 years max. That's not long enough for PhD students, or about half of undergrads, to finish their degree.
Likely to enter force within days.

Hmm, what do ‘central camps’ and ‘final plan’ remind you of?

RFK Jr. pulls $500 million in funding for vaccine development
The Department of Health and Human Services plans to cancel contracts and pull funding for some vaccines being developed to fight respiratory viruses like COVID-19 and the flu.
RFKJr moves further towards a "no more vaccines" policy. “Kennedy said in the Tuesday statement that he wants the health department to move away from mRNA vaccines, calling on the department to start “investing in better solutions.” He provided no details on what those technologies might be.”

Trump ran on a pledge to reduce grocery store costs. Everything he has done has been designed to do the exact opposite, and 90+ tariff implementation, we will see the more significant price increases.

Worse than that. Read this EO carefully, it says anyone they see as essentially out of their mind OR homeless. It’s repeated under every point they make. This here allows to take anyone they see as a “threat” and put into an institution.

Trump was asked 8 days ago if Bondi told him his name appeared in the Epstein files -- and of course he lied about it
