"By the spring, WFP still had not received funding, ran low on supplies and would be forced to stop feeding many of Kenya’s refugees. In Kakuma, the third-largest camp in the world, WFP cut rations to their lowest in history, trapping most of the 308k people in the camp with almost nothing to eat."
NEW: Without USAID funding to help buy food for refugees, the World Food Program rushed to prioritize families based on need, determining that only half the population would get food.
Refugees learned which half they were in from a number stamped on the back of their ration card.

It would be an ideal opportunity for friends of Venezuela to show what asymmetric warfare can do to navies.
You'd think Mr Trump's friend Mr Putin would warn him of his own recent experience with his ships.

I am hoping that all the wise heads who knew Trump would up the ante against Venezuela, with the likely 9 pm EST statement on the matter, will therefore release the Epstein files at 7 pm.

So if Trump is suing the BBC for $10 bn and the NYT for $15 bn as the monetary damage to his reputation as president, and if he wins, the implication is that the US court system is OK with his expectation that the presidency would be worth at least $25 bn to him personally.
That's kind of impeachy.

This is just one example, but this story is the perfect example of why mediocre white guys are against DEI and this is the “American Dream” they’re trying to preserve. This is the “western culture” they want to protect, and anti-discrimination laws and policies destroy that.

You're not really a psychopath until you hear about a political opponent's apparent murder and your first instinct is to presume that it was one of your extremists.
One would hope it is a disqualifying characteristic in a democratically elected president.

Supporting LGBTQ people is not a political position, but a moral one.
You don't have to like LGBTQ people, or want your children to be LGBTQ. You just have to look at their courage to be different and say "actually, their fight for their rights is no different to me fighting for mine."
