Trump's big, ugly budget megabill gives ICE more cops than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries. Once the bill is fully implemented, nowhere in America will be safe from Trump's secret police state.

During the live stream, a woman fainted and fell to the ground in a heart-breaking scene that captured the severity of the hunger and suffering.

True heroes.

The real danger isn’t just that the West is enabling or even partaking in genocide by starvation, but that it is now chillingly comfortable being seen as complicit in it. It's a horrific type of comfort that tells the world, “we know what this looks like and we don’t care.” In this phase, western elites have moved beyond merely permitting genocide under might makes right into justifying it as necessary through might makes righteous, whereby mass starvation is framed as Israel’s right to self-defense. The continued use of this phrase, even by so-called progressives like AOC, ultimately serves as a justification for defensive genocide. This isn’t just cynical realpolitik, but a brazen subversion of all basic moral norms and of humanity itself.
