The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) has said that it is unable to distribute essential food supplies in the Gaza Strip due to the ongoing Israeli blockade on humanitarian aid to Gaza. "Humanitarian aid and supplies have not entered the Gaza Strip for over 50 days now when the Israeli authorities imposed a siege," the agency said in a statement released on Thursday. "As a result, critical humanitarian supplies, including food, fuel medical aid and vaccines for children, are rapidly depleting.'' UNRWA warns of Gaza's growing food crisis amid Israeli aid blockade

Trump posted on Truth Social, "I am not happy with the Russian strikes on KYIV. Not necessary, and very bad timing. Vladimir, STOP! 5000 soldiers a week are dying. Lets get the Peace Deal DONE!" "How threatened do you think Vladimir Putin is by those words?" asked CNN's John Berman. "By 'Vladimir, stop'? I don't think he's threatened at all," said senior political commentator Ana Navarro, "I feel like that's going to be some sort of meme or or T-shirt slogan.'' 'Laughable': Republican adviser says Putin 'not threatened' by 'mild' Trump attack Trump fans on here call those of us who oppose Trump: Trump haters, lefties, crazies, whatever, but actually hate is far too inadequate a word to describe many people's feelings for Trump. It's contempt, utter disgust for a man who's too mealy mouthed and cowardly to call a spade a spade, ' bad timing' indeed. Putin's just killed innocent civilians, women and children among them and Trump says, 'bad timing'. A complete coward, craven in his servile, obsequious fawning of Putin, desperate not to offend him. And then the nonsense lies saying Zelenskyy started the war and he, Trump, can end it in one day, etc. I despise and loathe the man, hold him in utter contempt. So please Maga fans, until you see the inevitable light, please refer to us as the Trump despisers.

Examples of Trump's unhinged policies: 1.

New research published in the New England Journal of Medicine analysed nearly 74,000 people in the US and 16 European countries who were between 50 and 85 years old in 2010, and tracked their survival through 2022. Across all groups, the US death rate was 6.5 per 1,000 during the study period. That compares with rates of 2.9 in northern and western Europe, 4.9 in southern Europe, and 5.8 in eastern Europe. Wealthy Americans had lower survival rates than rich people in southern Europe – as well as everyone in northern and western Europe, regardless of how wealthy they were, the study found; the survival rate for wealthy Americans was on par with the poorest people in northern and western Europe, and with eastern Europeans overall. Why do wealthy Americans only live as long as poor people in western Europe?
