When in political trouble, start an illegal war. Both the POTUS and the Israeli PM are war criminals. And our children are cannon fodder.

"'One year of failure.' The Lancet slams RFK Jr.'s first year as health chief."

And that is the sad truth about public health in the US. A brain-dead conspiracy theorist is causing havoc, destroying years of accomplishments.

[Katie] Wilson stood in front of a makeshift podium for her first speech as the official Mayor Elect.

“Hello, Seattle,” she said. “I am so happy to be here on this quintessentially Seattle rainy day in November, to say to the people of Seattle: this is your city, and I am delighted to be your next mayor.”

She listed what she wanted to accomplish: universal child care, K-8 summer care, “world class” transit, safe public spaces, affordable housing, & social housing, to name a few.

Amy McGrath, a retired navy fighter pilot & former Senate candidate, described Hegseth’s comments about women as disparaging.

“He claimed the military needs to ‘return to the male standard’ in combat jobs (of 1990!), but here’s the truth: there has never been a separate male & female standard” she wrote. “When women entered combat roles, one standard was set, & we’ve been meeting it ever since. You can either do the job or you can’t. Period.”

Well, this plan that has been put forward is certainly not a plan that is going to end the genocide. What they’re simply attempting to do is repackage it. And the reason that I say this is that what Israel wants is to be able to get the Israelis back, but there is no guarantee whatsoever that they’re going to stop the killing of Palestinians in any way, shape or form.

Trump’s Gaza Plan Is Mere “Repackaging of Genocide” for Israel’s Benefit: Diana Buttu

After a White House meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Trump unveiled a 20-point peace plan for the Gaza Strip on Monday that aims to end Israel’s war on Gaza, free the remaining Israeli hostages and remove Hamas from power. Netanyahu expressed support for the deal, but he has already backed away from key elements, including a call for Israel to eventually pull its troops out of Gaza. Hamas has not responded yet to the deal. As part of his 20-point peace plan, Trump announced the establishment of an international transitional governing body called the “Board of Peace,” which Trump would head. Palestinian human rights attorney Diana Buttu says the deal is “certainly not a plan that is going to end the genocide. What they’re simply attempting to do is repackage it.” Buttu also notes that while Trump met with Netanyahu before announcing the plan, Palestinians were not consulted. Buttu asks, “Why is it that Palestinians have been forced to negotiate an end to their genocide?”

Between anti-immigrant zeal and a general disdain for any rules whatsoever, the Trump administration has shredded the constitutional order that makes government legitimate.

This is now a legitimacy crisis.

The Trump administration has aggressively rolled back efforts across the federal government to combat human trafficking, a Guardian investigation has found.

The sweeping retreat threatens to negate decades of progress in the drive to prevent sexual slavery, forced labor and child sexual exploitation…the administration’s moves are impeding efforts to prosecute perpetrators and protect survivors in the United States and around the world
