Israel is starving Palestinians in Gaza because Israel has broken the Ceasefire treaty and refused to start withdrawing their troops from Gaza. Blocking Humanitarian Aid and starving people is a War Crime, but you won't hear any of the Media reporting it.

a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job

The funniest part of the new tariffs is they’ve removed the de minimis exemption for small packages, even from Canada. If a mom sends a birthday gift from Windsor to Detroit they’ve gotta pay 25% tariffs on it lol. Just unimaginable stupidity.

I understand that he can change the names of things within the US. But doesn’t the Gulf of Mexico fall under “international bodies of water,” not belonging to the US? How would an American president have the power to change the name of something he does not govern?
