The cruelty of this is, genuinely, staggering. This is a policy that saves virtually no money whatsoever whose success is measured in the number of children it kills.

as identity groups have become spread across the political spectrum, I think we are going to have to switch thinking that identity groups are more loyal to each other because of inherent shared identity than they are to class/ ideological groups they self- identify with

all non-dominant populations are the most loyal voters in the Democratic Party tent but you can't assume that just because someone is trans or a member of any other non-dominant population that they are not also conservative concerning their stance toward other non-dominant population groups or issues that benefit themselves on a personal level that's how humans work - on more than a single dimension

First point- and under appreciated point is that the money saved by the staffing reductions in the federal workforce is a teeny tiny percentage annual budget and we'll have no effect at all, while causing the maximum amount of pain and damage on actual human lives possible within that arena 1/2

2/2 second point - Trump and Bibi are child killers of the highest order. BB kills them with bombs and guns, and Trump kills them by denying them food and medicine. What they are doing is proving true the old saying that a million deaths are a statistic, but one is a tragedy. 2/3

3/3 Trump kills with such casual negligence, and Netanyahu does so while sanctifying himself as Divine protector. While flaunting their victimhood and persecution, you can count on these two to kill the hostages and slaughter the human shields. More play time in the hate sandbox.

Agree. The “elimination” objective is apparent in all POLICY coming out of the MAGA-P25 (not thinking?) “BRAIN TRUST.” By removing facts, equitable resources & JUSTICE for ALL THE PEOPLE to gain in LIFE, a “winners/losers” outcome favors the (still) HAVES over the NEVER-HADS &/or NOT-ANYMORES. Evil

Unfortunately, we *know* they won't. There's an ICC warrant out for Bibi and he's just laughing it off and not one single country has the courage to arrest someone who ordered using food aid to lure civilians only to mow them down with tanks.
