.Jan Eliasson is exactly right. If you want to ease starvation of children in Gaza, no need for air drops. The solution is simple: Let the UN and NGOs truck food across the border (and stop shooting desperate civilians trying to get food for their families).

Of the people who have starved to death in Gaza since the beginning of the war, 80 percent are children, UNICEF reports: unicef.org/press-releases… This is an episode that shames the world, and the US is particularly complicit.

What a match - sorry to see Ale Davidovich Fokina lose this one even though I’m a de Minaur fan #MubadalaCitiDCOpen 🎾

A classy gesture from Alex de Minaur 👏 He consoles Davidovich Fokina after a heartbreaking final. 💔 #MubadalaCitiDCOpen

“Most U.S. teachers’ colleges “are not designed with learning science principles at their core — It’s a generational battle to try to change that.” @the74 ⁦Greg Toppo⁩ the74million.org/article/cognit…

Jon Stewart and Peter Beinart, author of "Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza," discuss being condemned for criticizing Israel, and the wider impact of Israel's actions in Gaza

Remember that 80 percent of those who have starved to death in Gaza are children, according to @unicef. So it seems equally grandiose and grotesque to argue that inflicting mass starvation on children is necessary necessary to protect either Western civilization or humanity.

In the The Washington Post today, we named all 18,500+ Palestinian children killed in Gaza. You can scroll through to read each of their names, ages, and some of their stories.

Blue-state Republicans and red-state Democrats are the most moderating influence in Congress and are usually instrumental to any bipartisan legislation. Their continued erosion through gerrymandering will only make Congress more polarized and less capable of governing.
