I started covering this last year, and I can't overstate how important this is: the Trump administration officially labeled some of the most commonly-used forms of birth control as 'abortion' jessica.substack.com/i/173447780/...
The Knesset passed a bill today mandating the death penalty for Palestinians convicted of terror - but not for Jews.

Industry warnings of disruption contrast with government calls for calm

In Hebrew school growing up, I was told repeatedly that the fact that only person "officially" put to death by the state of Israel was Adolf Eichmann was a point of pride. Of course that claim ignored everyone killed in military shootings, but now even that de jure point of pride no longer exists.

New: The White House is signaling that reopening the Strait of Hormuz is not a must-have to end the Iran War, potentially setting the stage for Iran to continue to flex its strategic position over one of the world's busiest oil shipping channels for the foreseeable future

Karoline Leavitt said reopening the Strait of Hormuz was not a "core objective" of winning the Iran War for President Trump.
Immigration enforcement is the number one priority of this administration — beyond everything else. And when the DOJ makes that its number one priority, it means that they have to drop a bunch of other cases, including ones with far more serious consequences.

Hate how much corruption my kid and his friends are absorbing as norm in so many areas of life

NEW: Under AG Pam Bondi, the DOJ has dropped 23,000 criminal cases — including hundreds of investigations into terrorism, white-collar crime and drugs — while prosecuting 32,000 new immigration cases in just the first six months of Trump’s second term.
This would be an unambiguous war crime. Like no need to wonder about subjective intent or the possibility of mistake - "we are destroying all civilian structures not because they are currently being used for military purposes but to prevent any future use" is simply not defensible under IHL

"ICE agents will be stationed outside graduation events for the nation’s newest Marines to identify whether any of their family members are undocumented, according to the Marine Corps."
I go into schools to teach violence prevention and we've just shown a generation of young men that raping someone won't ruin your life and might even make you President one day.
As the U.S. continues to fight the war in Iran, the Marine Corps has boosted protection measures on bases, requiring everyone to present REAL IDs, passports or birth certificates to access any sites.

My brother is a high school teacher, and we had a long talk yesterday about how a generation of kids who have basically never witnessed competent adult leadership at the national level are about to come of age.
