Nicolas Kristof writes key lines of scrutiny where Trump is vulnerable: -he is deeply corrupt -he is hurting you in the pocketbook -he looks down on you and thinks he can manipulate you And "We critics of Trump have made innumerable mistakes" Nicholas Kristof nytimes.com/2025/05/24/opi…

I’ve seen the silhouettes of so many people—so many children—burning alive, that I can’t look at fire anymore without feeling sick to my stomach. WE MUST STOP THIS MASSACRE. May the Palestinians forgive us.

This is what a former Israeli Prime Minister said about Gaza.

Day one of the new "aid mechanism": maybe 2% of Gazan families were able to collect food parcels before thousands of hungry people overran one of the distribution centers and forced it to close temporarily. An outcome both predictable and depressing timesofisrael.com/gazans-overrun…

.@unicef reports that the number of children in Gaza who have been killed or injured now exceeds 50,000. Unicef says: "More than 50,000 children have reportedly been killed or injured since October 2023. How many more dead girls and boys will it take? What level of horror must be

In 1991, while living in Beijing, I became the Harvard interviewer for applicants from China. The would-be students were dazzlingly good. Since then, most of those early students have settled in the US, enriching our country--for America has benefited so much from its recruitment

In his Harvard University commencement address, Dr. Abraham Verghese notes that this is a time for the university unprecedented in its nearly four-century history. Verghese says he initially was reluctant to be speaker, but then decided that an immigrant who grew up in Ethiopia and

SecState Rubio claims that no on has died because of USAID cuts and suggested that I had lied in my reporting. So here I show him photos of specific children who have died because of the Trump administration's reckless cancelation of aid: nytimes.com/2025/05/31/opi…

Actually, I did go to Africa. Unlike Musk and Rubio, I went to South Sudan to see MANY kids dying because of Trump policies. That's "reporting"--going places and knocking on doors rather than blindly accepting White House propaganda. Read the piece: nytimes.com/2025/05/31/opi…

The Trump administration know-nothings cut funding for science in a way that is equal parts cruel and idiotic. Imagine rejecting research because it uses the words "women's health." Women aren't some DEI construct; they're half of humanity and key to continuing all of it.

I sat down with Joe Rogan for a conversation that took us from me movie, to me music from fighting to foreign aid and lots of places in between. Three hours in and we were somehow just getting started, but what can I say, I’m Irish… I don’t do full stops and commas… Joe, you’re

Rubio’s claim no kids are dying b/c of US AID cuts “is ludicrous: The only debate is whether to measure the dead in the thousands, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands,” writes ⁦Nicholas Kristof⁩. nytimes.com/2025/05/31/opi… via @NYTOpinion
